Whoosh~

At the edges of the Burning Mountain Range, Xuan Hao landed quietly as he put away his sword and looked up at the giant mountain range stretching on for thousands upon thousands of miles into the distance.

"Hm From the information given by the Explorers Union, there should be a demon beast at the Nascent Soul Realm a few miles away from here" Taking out a map, Xuan Hao inspected one of the few marked areas on it and soon closed it and proceeded to take out his sword once again before flying in the direction where the demon beast was supposed to be.

At the same time, a little further inside the Burning Mountain Range, a certain demon beast was having the time of its life as it savoured on some meat from a giant mountain lion demon beast that it had hunted down earlier.

"Roar~!"

Ah~ This is life~

Letting out a satisfied roar, the demon beast in question rolled back into the small cave that it lived in.

Looking closer, one would be able to see that the shape of the demon beast was quite unique, it looked like a giant ball, except, this ball had fur on it and a giant mouth filled with sharp teeth. The eyes of the demon beast could not be seen, as the fur covered it up completely. Legs or arms could not be seen either, meaning the demon fur ball most likely moved by rolling around.

"ROAR!"

Y-you! You are the one who killed my father! I know you are hiding in there, come out and face me!

Just as the demon fur ball had rolled back into his cave to enjoy the rest of the mountain lion's meat, an angry roar came from outside disturbing the former peaceful scene.

"" Stopping just as it was about to bite down on the meat, the fur ball demon beast turned around and looked angrily in the direction of the little lion cub that had dared to disturb it while it was eating.

"ROAR!" Letting out an earth-shattering roar, the fur ball demon beast rolled out from its cave in a majestic manner and came to a stop a few meters away from the lion cub that had dared to disturb it, towering majestically high above it, the sheer size of the fur ball demon beast was at least a few dozen meters!

Even the few trees nearby seemed small in comparison to the giant ball of fur!

"R-roar" Seeing how big it's opponent truly was, the lion cub was frightened! It had never imagined that there would be such a big demon beast here! It was only a Core Formation Demon Beast! How was it supposed to deal with such a big demon beast in the first place?

Turning around, the small mountain lion ran away before the majestic ball of fur even manged to do anything.

"ROAR!"

You think you can just come here and disturb me when you want and run away whenever you find out who you messed with!?

Seeing that the mountain lion demon beast just run away upon seeing it, the majestic fur ball demon beast let out an even more angry roar as it quickly rolled after it, destroying all the trees that dared to block its path.

"Roar!"

How dare you!

"Where is the Nascent Soul Realm demon beast? Maybe it fought someone recently or chased after someone?" Arriving at the fur ball demon beasts lair, Xuan Hao looked around the area and saw all the broken trees in the surroundings.

Looking a little further away from the lair of the Nascent Soul demon beast, Xuan Hao saw the destroyed trees had formed a path or something leading further into the Burning Mountain Range.

The path was extremely big and the trees that was in the way had all been completely destroyed or flattened, showing just how big the demon beast who had fought here truly was!

"Guess I will just have to go and see if I can catch up with it If I'm lucky, I might even be able see the opponent that caused it to chase it down Hopefully it was another demon beast and not a human" Muttering this to himself, Xuan Hao accelerated his speed and flew in the direction that the Nascent Soul Realm demon beast had run in.

"Roar!"

You can't run anymore little lion cub!

Standing at the edge of a giant cliff with a fall of at least a few hundred meters, the mountain lion demon beast was standing with one paw over the edge as it shakingly looked at the giant fur ball in front of it slowly rolling closer and closer with each passing second.

"Ro-roar" Letting out a weak roar in response to the giant fur ball demon beast, the young mountain lion prepared for its end as it tried to put on a strong front.

It had just wanted to avenge its father who had perished to the fur ball When he had gone missing after going out to hunt food for the rest of his newly born lion cubs, the young mountain lion was not that worried, it was only after its father did not return that it grew worried and went out to search for him.

Communicating with some of the nearby demon beast that the mountain lion family was on friendly terms with, it had learned that its father had died at the hands of a demon beast living deep in the mountain forest.

Hearing this, the young mountain lion did not think clearly and let rage take control of it as it went to challenge the demon beast who had killed its father, even though its father was stronger than it in the first place

Now it came to regret its earlier decision What would happen to its newly born siblings and mother without anyone to help defend them?

"Well This is truly a Unique demon beast" Arriving at the scene of the giant fur ball advancing towards the young mountain lion demon beast, Xuan Hao smiled wryly as he saw the giant ball of fur having the aura of a Nascent Soul Realm demon beast slowly rolling forward.
