Fiery Dragon lived in a natural karst cave in the Perpetual Night Forest. This karst cave had flaming walls that were as red as blood. It was hot and suffocating all year round, with poor air circulation.
Being a new level 9 Fiery Flood Dragon, Fiery Dragon's intellect had been awakened a long time ago. He was officially a member of the Monster Clan.
However, it was hard to change his temperament in a short time. The karst cave he lived in was still filthy, with a pungent smell that made people want to vomit.
Of course, Fiery Dragon didn't care about that. Quite the contrary, he thought that this kind of environment made him feel comfortable and relaxed.
To the Human Clan, this kind of place was the most unbearable and disgusting place.
The Human Clan members he had captured couldn't stay in this karst cave for more than a few days before they were suffocated to death.
Fiery Dragon's aura was also the most unbearable. Except for the beasts, the other high-grade living beings couldn't endure it.
Inside the natural karst cave, the three-hundred-meter-long Fiery Flood Dragon squinted lazily, coiling on the scarlet wall. The Fiery Flame Gold Lion and the Silver-horned Giant Python squatted, waiting in silence.
The karst cave was spacious, extending everywhere. Even though the scarlet wall was so bright, it didn't affect people's vision.
Not far from them, hundreds of different sized beasts were standing at a distance from each other. They were like the guards of the Human Clan, standing on two sides. They seemed to be waiting for something solemnly.
"Master Fiery Dragon, the human called Shi Yan wants to see you." A level 7 beast was howling at the entrance of the cave. He wasn't used to it yet, his voice shaking the entire cave.
"Let him in," Fiery Dragon's fist-sized red eyes brightened. His voice was calm and clear.
Not long afterward, a silhouette walked out of the entrance of the karst cave. After seven turns, he arrived at the spacious cave where the Fiery Dragon, the Fiery Flame Gold Lion, and the Silver-horned Giant Python stayed.
In the center of the cave, Fiery Dragon's fleshy body stood on the scarlet stone wall. A pungent smell diffused from his body.
The ventilation in the cave wasn't good, so the demonic beasts always had a strange smell. In this cave, besides the Fiery Dragon, there were also the Fiery Flame Gold Lion, the Silver-horned Giant Python, and some rotten meat. The smell was so bad that it could make people's souls shiver.
The Fiery Dragon's blood-red eyes widened, glaring at the man who had just arrived. Looking at him approaching step by step, the Fiery Dragon didn't seem to have smelled the disgusting odor. His visage was relaxed.
The Fiery Dragon, the Fiery Flame Gold Lion, and the Silver-horned Giant Python were bewildered for a while. Right after that, their eyes, which were filled with hatred, calmed down imperceptibly. Unknowingly, they had a better impression of this man.
Humans loathed the smell of demonic beasts, so they treated the habitat of demonic beasts as the dirtiest place.
The three beasts, Fiery Dragon, Fiery Flame Gold Lion, and Silver-horned Giant Python, had dealt with many humans.
Without exception, every human who entered the cave, regardless of whether they were mortals or martial artists, would vomit incessantly.
A part of the smart ones would press down their tumbling stomachs, pretending that they didn't mind. However, they couldn't hide the disgust deep in their eyes.
To high-level demonic beasts like the Fiery Dragon, they hated humans the most, as they thought that the other didn't respect them.
Therefore, this kind of people would often become meat in their stomachs.
Today, the Fiery Dragon, the Fiery Flame Gold Lion, and the Silver-horned Giant Python observed for a long time, but they didn't see any trace of disgust or disdain on the man's face. At least, they didn't see any trace of disgust.
This satisfied the three high-grade beasts a lot. Their wrath, which was about to erupt, was temporarily appeased.
"Why did you come here?" The Fiery Dragon snorted, his voice rumbling like thunder. "I've given you a deadline. Don't challenge my patience. Since you've come here personally, I'll let you go. You should leave now. I won't pursue this matter anymore."
Shi Yan's face was indifferent. He wasn't scared or scared. He smiled, but didn't answer the Fiery Dragon's question. "I heard that Master Fiery Dragon has an enemy nearby. He seems to be a level 9 Blood-maned Giant Ape. I heard that … he reached level 9 earlier than you? Rank 2 of level 9? "
After several days of learning, he knew that the demonic beasts and the Monster Clan also had different levels. They were divided into different levels, just like the Heavens of the Human Clan.
The Fiery Dragon had just entered level 9 not long ago. Of course, he was at rank 1 of level 9. The Blood-maned Giant Ape had been at level 9 for a longer time, so he was at rank 2 of level 9. He was one level stronger than the Fiery Dragon.
The Fiery Dragon's eyes suddenly became bloodshot, as if blood was dripping out of them. He said maliciously, "What does it have to do with you?"
"I can help Master Fiery Dragon increase his power. Yeah, including them." Shi Yan said naturally, pointing at the Fiery Flame Gold Lion and the Silver-horned Giant Python. "You Monster Clan aren't good at forging treasures, but I am. If you all have good weapons, I think you can be more secure when you fight for territories with the Blood-maned Giant Ape."
"Forging treasures?" The Fiery Dragon was bewildered, then shouted indignantly. "The body of our Clan is the strongest weapon! We don't need external objects! Kid, you've wasted your effort. "
"What I'm talking about... is refining the body." Shi Yan laughed. "Master Fiery Dragon, if I refine your horn one more time, the power it can release will be more terrifying and pure. Hmm, I know very well how hard and sharp your race's limbs are. So, my focus … is on your bodies. "
The Fiery Dragon and the two beasts were stunned.
"Can I demonstrate it?" Shi Yan asked with a smile.
The Fiery Dragon and the two beasts nodded instinctively, as they wanted to see what he was going to do.
"Let it come here," Shi Yan had a plan. He pointed at a level 6 Sharp-clawed Blue Maned Beast not far from him.
When that beast came, his Storage Ring sparkled. More than ten kinds of materials that he had prepared flew out. Under the Earth Flame's heat, they turned into a strange liquid that gathered on the sharp claws of the Sharp-clawed Blue Maned Beast. It started to refine its claws.
Fiery Dragon and the two beasts were watching attentively.
Two hours later, Shi Yan retracted his hand. The sharp claws of the Sharp-clawed Green Fangbeast were as white as swords, glistening with a cold light and circulating with a strange sharpness.
Fiery Dragon sent out a thought. The Sharp Claw Green Fanged Beast obeyed, stabbing its claw into the rock wall next to it.
Like a sharp knife piercing through tofu, the rock wall was instantly penetrated, leaving only the Sharp-clawed Nightmare Beast's arm outside.
The Fiery Dragon, the Fiery Flame Gold Lion, and the Silver-horned Giant Python suddenly cheered up. Their heavy breathing arose from the cave, showing their excitement.
"You're a human, yet you dare to cooperate with us? Aren't you afraid that you'll be hunted to death if others find out?" Fiery Dragon kept silent for a while, his tone surprised. "Currently, the grudge between the clans in the Divine Great Land is as deep as the sea. Our Monster Clan and Human Clan are mortal enemies. Do you dare to do that?"
Shi Yan shrugged. "I've already done that."
The Fiery Dragon and the Fiery Flame Gold Lion observed in silence. No one knew what they were thinking.
"If you refuse, I don't mind." Shi Yan suddenly smiled darkly. "I'll go to the Blood-maned Giant Ape's territory. Perhaps … he'll be interested in my proposal."
"Master Fiery Dragon!" The Fiery Flame Gold Lion and the Silver-horned Giant Python roared.
Fiery Dragon's eyes suddenly shot out a brutal light. A formidable wave was released from his body, as if he wanted to bury Shi Yan and smash him into pieces.
"Let me make it clear first. If I dare to come, I'm not afraid. Although our forces aren't strong, you can't swallow us easily." Shi Yan stood still, talking faintly. "Perhaps you understand this. Otherwise, you wouldn't have urged us, but you haven't come to kill us yourself. You have the Blood-maned Giant Ape as your enemy. We also have our enemies. Our cooperation is a win-win situation. If we have a bloody battle, it won't benefit anyone. "
"What do you want?" Fiery Dragon pondered for a while, then asked all of a sudden.
"Not a lot. We need a temporary peace. We won't be attacked in your territory. Moreover, you have to pay the price for me increasing your forces. " Shi Yan grinned. "I know the Perpetual Night Forest has abundant cultivating materials. Of course, you know which ones are the most precious. Haha, you can only use most of the materials through me. At this moment, besides me, I think no other human blacksmiths dares to cooperate with you. Especially … at this time. What do you think? "
"Happy cooperation," Fiery Dragon kept silent for a while, then shouted with a low voice.
"Happy cooperation." ShiYan's face was brimming with a warm smile. He felt relaxed.
…
Deep inside the karst cave, inside a flaming stone cave that was as big as a football field, countless strange cultivating materials were piled up like a small mountain.
Dark Blue Water Jade, Phoenix Bone Stone, Soul Nurturing Tricolor Grass, Thick Earth Topaz …
All kinds of rare materials were thrown in the corner as if they were worthless waste. They were covered with a thick layer of dust. If one didn't look carefully, it was hard to tell that those trash-like things were the precious treasures that the warriors yearned for even in their dreams.
Fiery Dragon led Shi Yan to this place. At first glance, he was shaken as if he got hit hard. He was dumbstruck.
"Our Monster Clan has a long life. For example, I've lived for more than one thousand years." Fiery Dragon said, "One thousand years is a long time. In the Perpetual Night Forest, there are many spiritual treasures that you human warriors want to collect. Although I don't know their functions, I know they're valuable. That's why my subordinates and I have collected them. Over the past thousand years, they have slowly gathered together. Naturally, they have gained quite a lot. Sometimes, we will take them out to trade with you humans. But most of the time, we will kill them and eat them … "
Shi Yan beamed a forced smile, shaking his head. He didn't care about the dragon, walking straight to the center of those dazzling cultivating materials.
Shortly after, strange lumber reflected in his eyes from the corner.
Those lumber seemed to have been struck by lightning, as it had a clear lightning power. The lumber had natural wood grain, which was exquisite and beautiful. The wood grain formed a natural formation, which dazzled Shi Yan.
Thunder Witch Wood!
A light flashed in his head. Shi Yan's fingers trembled. He couldn't hold the joy in his heart anymore, laughing out loud.
