Cultivating Disciples to Breakthrough

Chapter 101 - Little White Rabbit And Deadly Spiritual Flames



Inspecting the Big furry ball slowly rolling closer and closer to the mountain lion demon beast at the edge of the cliff, Xuan Hao realized that the ground beneath them looked way more parched compared to the ground elsewhere on the Burning Mountain Range.

The thing that made Xuan Hao curious was the fact that it was only the edges of the cliff that was parched, while the ground a little further away looked normal.

Thinking a little further about it, Xuan Hao realized that it most likely had something to do with the area below the cliff, with that in mind, Xuan Hao decided to wait and see what would happen to the mountain lion and oversized fur ball… Both of them did not really seem to have noticed the ground below them was different compared to before as they were both standing extremely close to the edge of the cliff at the moment.

"Roar!" Letting out a roar upon getting close enough, the giant fur ball opened its giant mouth and bounced towards the young mountain lion, looking to swallow it whole.

Xuan Hao could almost not hold himself back from laughing as he saw the unique attack technique used by the Nascent Soul Realm demon beast.

Rumble!

Just as the Fur Ball demon beast was about to reach the shivering young mountain lion demon beast, a loud rumbling sound came from below the cliff as a wave of heat suddenly washed over both of them, stopping the fur ball demon beast in its track.

"Roar?" Letting out a slightly confused roar, both the young mountain lion and fur ball demon beast looked in the direction where the sound came from and soon felt yet another wave of heat erupt from below the cliff once again.

This time around a large flame rose from the bottom of the cliff as well, scaring both the fur ball demon beast and the young mountain lion, who was both standing extremely close to the edge of the cliff.

The both of them reacted immediately and tried to move out of the way of the flame as the sheer heat from it made even the fur ball demon beast cautious.

Sadly, only the fur ball managed to react in time as the young mountain lion was soon swallowed up by the flame that by now covered the edges of the cliff to the ravine below.

"Roar!" A pitiful roar came from the young mountain lion as it was soon swallowed by the flames and burned alive.

Xuan Hao narrowed his eyes slightly as he saw the young mountain lion get swallowed by the flames and die within only a few seconds, it had to be known that the young mountain lion was a demon beast at the Core Formation Realm!

Demon beasts normally had better defence compared to their human counterpart, so they could better take damage and survive stronger attacks.

The mountain lion was an especially strong demon beast, but in this case, the young mountain lion at the Core Formation Realm had suddenly been burned to death by the giant flame that had suddenly erupted from the ravine below the cliff!

As the flame continued to spread outwards from the edge of the cliff, it soon reached the location that the fur ball demon beast had retreated to and swallowed it up as well before it could react or do anything to prevent itself from burning up like the young mountain lion demon beast.

But compared to the young mountain lion demon beast that had died after letting out a single pitiful roar, the fur ball demon beast was way stronger than it and did not die due to the flames as it struggled for a bit before managing to get itself away from the flames that had stopped spreading a few dozen meters away from the edge of the cliff leading into the ravine below.

Upon closer inspection, Xuan Hao discovered that the seemingly big mouth and body of the fur ball was merely an illusion of sorts used by it.

Observing the current state of the fur ball demon beast, Xuan Hao saw that most of its fur had disappeared, leaving behind a small white ball only the size of his fist behind.

Seeing the large pair of ears and small paws, Xuan Hao realized something. The small white demon beast was clearly a rabbit.

How did a small, seemingly cute and innocent little rabbit reach the Nascent Soul Realm in the first place…?

Contemplating about how he himself was on the same level as a rabbit the size of his fist, Xuan Hao did not notice that the small white rabbit had run away after its disguise as a big bad ball of fur had been dispelled by the flames.

And when he did, he did not really care as much with the mystery of the flame in the ravine directly in front of him.

Sending out his divine sense, Xuan Hao carefully inspected the flames, but was immediately taken aback upon realizing that his divine sense had started burning the moment that it came into contact with the flames!

"How curious… The flame has spiritual properties and is able to directly burn my divine sense!" Retreating his divine sense to prevent himself from damaging his own divine sense, Xuan Hao had a slightly shocked look on his face.

For the flames to be able to burn someone's divine sense meant that they would also have the ability to damage the soul of the person that they burned!

Remembering what happened to the young mountain lion demon beast, Xuan Hao felt a little bad for it all of a sudden… From the looks of things, the young mountain lion demon beast most likely had its soul burned up and would not be able to reincarnate and had simply ceased to exist.

Deciding to wait for some time to see if the flames would disappear, Xuan Hao sat down in a mediative position and quietly cultivated as he waited.

Whoosh

Time passed and exactly 30 minutes after the flames had appeared there was a big whooshing sound of wind from the ravine below, followed by the flames that were currently burning the edge of the cliff disappearing back into the ravine below.

Xuan Hao watched this unfold and waited for another 30 minutes.

Rumble!

The flames appeared again!

Observing this, Xuan Hao deducted that the flames would appear for 30 minutes and then disappear for another 30 minutes before repeating the same pattern.

With this in mind, Xuan Hao waited for the flames to disappear again prior to entering the ravine himself and seeing if he could find out the reason for the flame's appearance.

Fighting could wait, there were more than enough demon beasts in the Burning Mountain Range. For now, he just wanted to find the reason for the flames in the ravine!

Maybe it was even caused by the appearance of a rare herb of some magical artifact!
