Adding Friends Can Make Me Stronger

Chapter 46: Becoming Friends with Demon Beasts?

“Well, this one is named Meng Changqing, recently entered the inner sect.

“His aptitude is indeed terrifying, but unfortunately, his advancement was too rapid, not giving him enough time to grow.

“If he could learn a profound-level high-grade martial skill and combine it with sword techniques, even the brothers from the Shi family might be defeated.”

Elder Ye replied.

Regarding Meng Changqing’s situation, it had actually been transmitted to the high-levels of the sect when he entered the inner sect.

To be precise, it was transmitted to the high-levels of the Spirit Peak.

For a disciple who could comprehend the ‘qi’ of martial arts, entering the Pinnacle Dragon Ranking was not a difficult task. It could compensate for the recent vacancies caused by other forces in the sect.

In addition, his future achievements would not be low.

He would definitely become a mainstay of the sect.

It was expected that a big shot would personally take him as a disciple, but the high-levels were unusually quiet.

There was no reaction at all, which was indeed strange.

However, he was still a valuable asset, and it was believed that the high-levels had other considerations.

“The qi of martial arts, the true essence of martial arts, is the greatest external force for us ordinary martial artists. Only by comprehending them can we compete with those with innate physiques and bloodlines.”

Elder Lin sighed, then shook his head, “Forget it, let’s not talk about this.”

“Although the sect has placed many high-grade resources in the Secret Realm this time, it has also greatly increased the difficulty, which not everyone can obtain.”

“Especially the deep red opportunity points in the central area.”

“I feel that even the brothers from the Shi family might not be able to obtain them.”

“After all, that Demon Beast has already gained intelligence and also possesses…”

——

The world spun, and the stars shifted.

Countless lights seemed to flicker around.

All five senses were lost.

When the vision cleared, he was already in a different place.

Rubbing his eyes, Meng Changqing sat up from the grass.

But seeing the vast sky and earth, the green plain seemed boundless, with faintly visible mountain ranges in the distance.

The breeze blew gently. The mass of grass leaves suddenly stirred up waves like the sea.

“Is this the Secret Realm?” Meng Changqing looked around.

In fact, there wasn’t much difference from the outside.

If anything, the sky here was always gloomy. Obscured by dark clouds, there was no golden light to be seen.

There was no one else around except him. It seemed that no one ended up with him.

“First, determine the location.” Meng Changqing took out the map and made a judgment based on some unique topography.

“A wild grass plain.” Meng Changqing’s eyes lit up as he confirmed the location.

Because this position was very close to an opportunity point set by a sect.

“Lucky.” Meng Changqing put away the map and placed it in his arms.

He rushed towards that opportunity point.

The Secret Realm was open for a total of seven days.

His plan was to clear these opportunity points as much as possible first, and then proceed with his original plan.

——

This mark was a light red color.

It could be said to be an opportunity point on the outermost perimeter.

But for Meng Changqing, it was already enough.

Although his current strength was strong, he did not believe that he could defeat a third-level Demon Beast.

The gap between major realms was not so easily overcome.

Especially the breakthrough from the Aperture Connecting Realm to the Sea Cleaving Realm.

After about the time it takes an incense stick to burn, Meng Changqing left the wild grass plain and entered an ancient forest.

It was surprisingly quiet here.

There wasn’t a single sound, not even the occasional sound of wind.

There were many Demon Beasts in the Xuanqing Realm, but he had been here for so long and hadn’t encountered any.

So, there was only one answer.

In the area of dozens of square kilometers under his feet, there was a very powerful Demon Beast!

Demon Beasts were very territorial.

They would not allow other creatures to move freely in their territory.

“Let’s see how strong the Demon Beast at this light red opportunity point is.”

In Meng Changqing’s opinion, it shouldn’t be a third-level Demon Beast just yet. Otherwise, how could anyone obtain it?

But just in case, Meng Changqing still proceeded with caution, first investigating the surroundings.

After a moment, Meng Changqing stopped on a thick branch.

Not far away was a wide valley, with walls rising a thousand feet on both sides, very steep, occasionally with the sound of rocks rolling down and hitting.

In the center of the valley, a Demon Beast was crouching.

This Demon Beast was quite large, nearly thirty meters long, reddish all over, covered in scales.

On its ferocious face were two pairs of blood-red eyes.

“Ironclad Flame Lion.”

Meng Changqing pronounced the name of this Demon Beast.

Among the Demon Beast, it was considered a powerful species.

Not only was its defense terrifying, but it was also naturally endowed with control over the power of flames, able to spew flames and burn mountains and rivers.

“Fortunately, it’s not at the third level.” Meng Changqing’s expression relaxed slightly.

If it were a third-level Demon Beast, its demonic energy would be transformed into demonic aura, similar to the true qi of humans.

But this Ironclad Flame Lion clearly didn’t have that.

However, judging from its aura, it was still very strong, almost at the limit of the second level.

That would be equivalent to the pinnacle of the Aperture Connecting Realm for humans!

“It can be dealt with, but…” Looking at the Ironclad Flame Lion, Meng Changqing suddenly had a strange idea.

The definition of friends shouldn’t be limited to just humans, right?

Who says you can’t be friends with Demon Beasts?

With that thought, Meng Changqing stared at the Ironclad Flame Lion, and his probing eyes opened accordingly.
