Chapter 8: Black Little Wild Boar

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Very good, I can start eating the Flame Flower. I’ll try my best to advance successfully.”

Li Xuan moved closer to the Flame Flower and started to peck at the Flame Flower like a whirlwind.

Under the rapid pecking, Li Xuan felt warmth all over his body. It was as if his body was on fire. It was warm.

On the data panel, the Fireball Skill also started to tremble and start to react.

Time passed bit by bit. As the number of Flame Flowers decreased, Li Xuan slowly approached the peak of the mountain and ate all the Flame Flowers along the way.

However, the higher he went up the mountain, the higher the temperature. Li Xuan’s body could not hold on any longer. After all, he was still an Ordinary Summoned Beast.

“The Fireball can advance soon. I can’t stop.”

Li Xuan took a deep breath and endured the high temperature around him. He chose to continue pecking at the Flame Flowers.

With his persistence, the Fireball on the data panel vibrated faster and faster, almost reaching its limit.

However, just at this moment, when the Fireball was about to advance, the Fire Peacock returned.

Huff, huff, huff!

The strong wind started to whistle. The Fire Peacock flew in the sky and inspected its territory.

When it saw a God Pigeon secretly eating its Flame Flowers, the Fire Peacock became angry. Without hesitation, it flapped its wings and released a large amount of flames.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Flames like heavenly flames fell from the sky. Rolling heat waves began to rise and swept toward Li Xuan.

The range of the flames was very wide. Not to mention Ordinary Summoned Beasts, even Black Iron Summoned Beasts could not dodge it. Therefore, the flames directly fell on the pigeon’s body.

However, what shocked the Fire Peacock was that the pigeon actually continued to eat in the flames. Even though its feathers were burned off and its body was emitting hot steam, the pigeon still refused to leave.

Such a strange scene shocked the Fire Peacock. It looked down in disbelief at the figure in the flames.

After living for so many years, this was the first time the Fire Peacock had seen such a persistent Summoned Beast. It did not even care about its life but wanted to eat the Flame Flowers.

This persistence somehow angered the Fire Peacock again. It once again scattered a large number of flames toward the miserable God Pigeon.

[ Ding! Your Fireball Skill has successfully advanced to Intermediate Fireball. ]

“It has finally advanced. This is great. Sooner or later, the Fire Peacock and I will meet again. Just you wait!”

Li Xuan endured the intense pain all over his body and raised his head to look at the sky. He looked at the flames that were falling down again and then self-destructed with a loud bang.

Boom!

The terrifying self-destruction swept through a large area. Fresh blood and thick smoke shook in all directions.

The Fire Peacock looked at the scene in front of it blankly. Its small brain was filled with mush. It did not understand what was going on at all.

However, it could not be bothered with these things anymore. Instead, it continued to strut around and patrol its territory.

On the other side…

In a dark underground cave…

Li Xuan fell into darkness. A weak light shone in from the outside not far away.

“I feel like my soul is stuffed. It seems like I have too many skills, and the burden on my soul is too heavy…”

“It seems like I need to contract a Summoner as soon as possible to raise my Soul Level. Otherwise, I might not be able to accommodate more skills. Although I feel like I can revive again, it’s still better to be cautious.”

Li Xuan closed his eyes, feeling the fatigue all over his body and the feeling of fullness in the depths of his soul. He decided to find a Summoner as soon as possible.

A Summoner could nourish the soul and raise the Soul Level of the Summoned Beast. It would be of great help to the Summoned Beast’s soul and was also a necessary path for advancing to a Black Iron Rank Summoned Beast.

Moreover, Li Xuan had another guess. If his soul was strong enough, he might be able to directly transform into a Black Iron Rank Summoned Beast in the future.

For a Summoned Beast of this level, the number of skills would increase. The level could also be intermediate or advanced, so there would be no need to level up the Skill if one got an Advanced Level Skill.

Of course, this was just a guess. Li Xuan was not sure either. At the moment, the main focus was to sign a contract with a Summoner.

Thinking about it, Li Xuan took action. First, he carefully looked around and discovered that this was an uneven cave. In the middle of the cave, there were many weeds.

Li Xuan lowered his head and looked at the soft weeds. Then, he saw the furry little claws.

“Eh? Why do they look like cat claws? Did I reincarnate into a cat?”

Li Xuan was surprised. He wanted to call out the data panel, but at that moment, fatigue surged through his body.

Li Xuan’s body swayed, and he lay on the weeds and fell into a deep sleep.

Time passed slowly.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Xuan finally opened his eyes again. The fatigue in his soul had slightly decreased, but the feeling of fullness in his soul was still there.

Moreover, he felt hungry and wanted to eat something as soon as possible.

“I’m so hungry. Let’s find something to eat first.”

Li Xuan activated God’s Perspective and was ready to see where there was food. When his view reached the sky, he suddenly saw a large amount of white light flashing.

“Eh? Summoning Contract Array? It’s actually a Summoning Contract Array? Moreover, why are there so many of them?”

Li Xuan looked to the Southeast in surprise. Under the huge rock there, dozens of Summoning Arrays lit up at the same time, waiting for the Summoned Beasts to enter.

Some of the quicker Summoned Beasts had already run into the Summoning Contract Array and started to sign the contract.

What puzzled Li Xuan was that these arrays were all white, but one of the summoning arrays was of a different color.

This summoning magic array was actually also white, but there was a circle of seven-colored light around the array. It was very magical.

“Seven-colored light? This must mean something. I can’t miss it. I need to go immediately.” Li Xuan moved his small claws and struggled to walk out of the cave.

It was just that the exhaustion from his body made it difficult for him to walk when he just walked out of the cave.

Instinctively, two green wings appeared on his back, dragging his small body as he flew towards the Summoning Contract Array.

“Flying? I’ve obtained the flying ability this time? Let’s look at the data first.” Li Xuan pulled out the data panel.

Ding!

Name: Li Xuan

Type: Wind-Winged Cat [Ordinary Summoned Beast]

Soul: Human

Skills: Self-Destruct, Intermediate Healing Spell, Intermediate Fireball, God’s Perspective, Wind Wings

…

Wind-Winged Cat? It’s actually a newly born and abandoned Wind-Winged Cat. No wonder its body is so weak.”

Li Xuan looked at the data panel and roughly scanned his memories. He roughly understood his own situation.

Previously, the reason why he fell asleep was not only because of the exhaustion of his soul but also because of the exhaustion of his body. Otherwise, it was impossible for him to fall asleep so quickly.

Of course, these were all minor matters. At the moment, the main focus was on signing a contract with a Summoner, especially the seven-colored light Summoning Array. He had to be clear about it.

Flap! Flap!

Slowly flapping his wings, Li Xuan quickly arrived around the huge boulder and saw many Summoned Beasts.

What surprised Li Xuan was that with the naked eye, there was no seven-colored light around the Summoning Array.

Only with God’s Perspective could he see the rainbow light.

“Interesting, is this a hidden characteristic that only God’s Perspective can see through?”

Li Xuan looked at the array carefully. There was really no difference with his naked eye. The only difference was that this rainbow array carried a trace of pressure.

“Let’s go in first. Otherwise, it won’t be good if other Summoned Beasts occupy it in advance.”

Li Xuan saw that many Summoned Beasts were desperately trying to enter the Summoning Array. Many of the Summoning Array had successfully signed a contract and disappeared.

Only this seven-colored array was temporarily empty, but the surrounding arrays were becoming fewer and fewer. Soon, only the seven-colored array was left.

Li Xuan was worried that an accident would happen, so he decided to go in and sign the contract.

Li Xuan slowly landed around the Summoning Array and prepared to enter and sign the contract. However, at this time, a little black wild boar tried to snatch the array from him.

How could the fat meat in his hands be snatched away by others? Therefore, Li Xuan directly opened his mouth.

An intermediate fireball the size of a basketball condensed and flew towards the little wild boar with terrifying might, directly landing on its body.

Boom!

A terrifying explosion appeared. The tyrannical might and fluctuations shocked the surrounding Summoned Beasts and they fled in all directions. They looked at Li Xuan in horror and did not dare to come any closer.

“Eh?”

Li Xuan’s eyes became blurry as he looked at the small wild boar with a serious expression.
