Chapter 447: Meeting The Tiger King And The Black Bear Again

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

With the strength of the Black Bear and the Tiger King, the two beasts would not be a match for this lava python in a frontal clash under normal circumstances even if they joined forces from the very start.

However, this lava python had firstly underestimated its opponent and ended up with a large gash in its belly. Then, when the Black Bear presented itself as bait, it ended up revealing its wound once again.

The Tiger King was more like a top-tier assassin in the dark. It moved noiselessly, and did not make any silly roars before attacking.

Only when it'd reached within 10 meters of the lava python did the latter sense this silent assassin!

Thinking that the other was its only opponent, the lava python had placed all its attention on the Black Bear. Although it had suffered some injury, it would be fine after a period of recuperation. The only thing was that it could not reenter the lava pool during this period.

But in exchange, it would receive a nice, full meal. To the lava python, this was an exceptionally profitable business. Unfortunately, it had not calculated that the stupid bear would have a fierce accomplice with it, hiding in the dark. The Tiger King had concealed itself too well, and it had not detected even the slightest trace of the other's presence!

The Tiger King's incomparably sharp claws were only less than five meters away from its gaping wound. In the next instant, its wound would be torn open, and it would die without a doubt!

"Sou!"

The lava python reacted extremely quickly. The hardest point of its tail turned reflexively and stabbed towards the Tiger King without hesitation!

"Si!"

"Hou!"

The Black Bear instantly rose in revolt, tightening its bite and ripping outwards savagely. If the lava python's hold on it was not so tight, causing the Black Bear's strength to weaken by a third, this bite would have completely torn off this half meter long section of the lava python's body!

But even so, the pain caused by the bite made the lava python loosen its grip again. With just a bit more strength, the Black Bear could have torn the flesh off the snake!

"Si!"

The lava python hissed with rage. It did not feel good to have a portion of its flesh torn out by the Black Bear's bite. In that instant, its strength dissipated, and the sharp end of its tail flopped to the ground.

"Si-la!"

With its only defense gone, the sharp claws of the Tiger King stabbed into the lava python's wound, and the powerful paws swiped downwards! The muscles and flesh there was instantly torn apart, revealing the damaged organs inside!

After suffering such a serious wound, the lava python could not care about maintaining its hold on the Black Bear anymore. In an instant, it released the Black Bear and its huge body thrashed madly on the ground.

"Peng!"

The Black Bear was caught off guard, and was directly struck by the trashing tail of the lava python. With a fierce bang, its body was smacked away, crashing against the stone cliff.

The huge lava python's life force was strong and stubborn. It squirmed and thrashed for a long time on the shore before it finally died.

From the start to the end, the lava python had never thought of jumping back into the lava pool. Perhaps it was its meager amount of intelligence that stopped it from diving back into the pool.

The surface of its skin had been torn apart, and diving into the pool would ensure its death. If it remained on the shore, it might still have a shred of hope for survival. Perhaps this was why it refused to go into the lava pool.

The Tiger King spat out a mouthful of blood and stood up, shaking its head. Its entire body was wreathed in pain. The Black Bear was in a similar situation. It was even weaker than the Tiger King, and was lying frailly on the ground with blood leaking from its mouth.

The Tiger King gritted its teeth and bore its pain as it crawled slowly towards the dead lava python. With a swift stab, a scarlet snake gall was pulled out from its body. Then, it crawled back to the Black Bear and pushed the snake gall into the Black Bear's mouth.

"Crack!"

The Tiger King lay down next to the Black Bear and shut its eyes. Its ears twitched constantly, listening for any threat. At the same time, the Black Bear's body emanated loud crackling sounds.

"Hou!"

The Black Bear's face was furrowed with pain, however, its roars were one of delight.

Large patches of its long fur dropped off constantly, and a layer of white fur grew back in their place. In just about a dozen minutes, the Black Bear's height reached 15 meters tall. All the fur on its body had turned completely white. At this moment, it completely did not look like a black bear at all. Instead, it looked more like a mutated polar bear.

"Wu~ wu~"

The Tiger King walked a few circles around the bear and used its claws to smack its body as excited roars rang from its throat.

"Hou!"

The Black Bear's body suddenly froze, and all its hair stood on its ends as it looked at the entrance of the cave nervously. At the same time, it placed its huge body to block in front of the injured Tiger King.

"Ta, ta."

A series of footsteps rang out as three men and a beast walked into the huge underground space.

"Oh? This Lord Dog just so happens to be a bit hungry. Although those guys aren't very big, they can still be used to fill my teeth."

The Cerberus walked towards the two Demonic Beasts with a bored sneer.

"Hou!"

The huge Black—now White—Bear roared to the sky threateningly and charged at the Cerberus. But although the scene looked horrifying on the surface, the whole thing felt rather weird, as if the huge bear lacked a certain scary factor.

But this could not be blamed on it. The pressure the Cerberus emanated was simply too heavy. This was not just a difference in strength, but in bloodline as well!

The weak and the strong among Demonic Beasts was much more clear-cut than humans. When a lower grade Demonic Beast met a high grade Demonic Beast, they would usually not even have the strength to mount a proper attack.

"Wait a minute, Indigestion, come back here."

Bei Feng stopped the Cerberus and looked at the huge bear and the tiger. For some reason, the two fellows looked somewhat familiar, but he didn't know where the familiarity came from.

"Boring," Indigestion mumbled and turned around. To it, the one with the harder fist was the boss. Since its fist was not as hard as Bei Feng's, it could only submit and listen to the latter.

Bei Feng walked towards the White Bear slowly, completely disregarding its cautious behavior. When he took one step forward, the latter took one step back. It could sense that this person was extremely terrifying, even stronger than the other Demonic Beast earlier!

"Wu~ wu!"

The Tiger King being protected behind the White Bear wrinkled its nose and sniffed at the air as a strange look appeared in its eyes. Following that, it suddenly became excited.

Ignoring the White Bear's efforts to protect it, it poked its head out like a huge cat and with a swing of its tail, it ran joyfully towards Bei Feng.

After that, it lowered its head and gently rubbed it against Bei Feng's chest. Its two eyes blinked innocently, and its earlier aggressive demeanor had all disappeared.

Bei Feng suddenly laughed loudly, understanding where this familiar feeling came from. These two beasts were the gluttonous bear and tiger he'd met 8 years ago in the forests of Shennongjia!

Although these two beasts had transformed greatly, Bei Feng had a near photographic memory by now. While he did not recognize the two at first glance as their changes had been too great, he could still recognize the familiar looks in their eyes.

Seeing the actions of this tiger, Bei Feng instantly remembered about it. Smiling lightly, he stretched out a hand and gently scratched the furry tiger behind its ears.

"Wrrr~"

The Tiger King purred happily and looked over to the huge bear behind it, signaling for it to come over.

Bei Feng felt extremely bamboozled at how the two completely different species even communicated and buddied up in the first place. A while later, the White Bear also lumbered over.

When it saw Bei Feng's height, it scratched its head and retreated a few steps, then, it directly got onto all fours and crawled forward. Just the height of its head was taller than Bei Feng. It stretched out its tongue that was full of reverse hooks to lick Bei Feng, but in the end, it just ended up lying on the ground with its huge pink tongue lolled out in front of it. Just when it stretched its tongue forward to lick Bei Feng, it suddenly swallowed the tongue back as if it'd just thought of something.
