“Little black hawk?” Duan Ling Tian’s lips twitched when he heard the Profound Divine Metal’s words. The Green-Eyed Black Hawk was an elementary King Grade Celestial Beast. It was the size of a hill, and yet, the Profound Divine Metal called it little.

“Senior, don’t worry… Even if he suddenly decides to eat me, you’re just going to have a new host, at most. I’m sure he’ll be glad to have you. Moreover, he’s much stronger than me,” Duan Ling Tian said.

“Hmph! You’re right. This little black hawk is, indeed, much stronger than you… However, if I’m not mistaken, his cultivation base is destined to stagnate at the One Basic Celestial King level because his Celestial Beast’s blood vein is only mediocre. Perhaps, he might be able to improve slightly with my guidance. However, it would still be difficult because of his blood vein. It’s almost impossible for him to become a Celestial Lord unless he has a rare fortuitous encounter. On the contrary, you’re one of a kind… Your innate talent is extremely rare among humans. With the right opportunity, you’ll improve in leaps and bound. The difference in innate talents between you and this little black hawk is like earth and heaven. Even if he kills you, I’ll only allow him to be my temporary host until I find a worthy host!” the Profound Divine Metal said disdainfully. It was clear the Profound Divine Metal did not think much of the Green-Eyed Black Hawk’s innate talent.

The Profound Divine Metal’s words caused Duan Ling Tian’s lips to twitch again. An elementary King Grade Celestial Beast was deemed worthless by the Profound Divine Metal… How ridiculous was that?

“On the contrary, this little tiger here has more potential compared to the little black hawk. There’s a trace of the Divine White Tiger’s bloodline in his otherwise mediocre blood vein. It’s no problem for him to become a Two Forms Celestial King or even a Three Talents Celestial King, given enough time! If he’s lucky, he might even be able to further improve his cultivation base. Otherwise, he’d probably stay a Three Talents Celestial King forever,” the Profound Divine Metal said.

“Little tiger?” Duan Ling Tian was stunned when he heard the Profound Divine Metal’s words. Soon after, he realized the little tiger the Profound Divine Metal had mentioned was referring to the middle-aged man, Bai Gang.

At this moment, Huang Jia Long said, “Brother Duan, I must say, you’re really amazing… Not only do you have such a high innate talent, but even your instinct is amazing. You’re right. Uncle Bai is also a Celestial Beast. He’s a peak elementary King Grade Celestial Beast. His innate talent is higher than Old Mo. According to Old Mo, barring unforeseen circumstances, Uncle Bai would be able to become a Three Talents Celestial King!”

Huang Jia Long’s words were in line with the Profound Divine Metal’s words. Chills ran up Duan Ling Tian’s spine when he realized how powerful the Profound Divine Metal was.

“Senior, the Chaos Divine Flame and you are part of the Five Divine Elements… What are the other three elements?” Duan Ling Tian asked. Alas, he repeated his questions several times, but there was no reply from the Profound Divine Metal.

‘Did it fall asleep again? The Profound Divine Metal and Chaos Divine Flame doesn’t seem like they’re part of the Five Divine Elements, they seem like sleepy pigs instead…’ Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly.

When Duan Ling Tian regained his senses, he looked at Huang Jia Long and said through Voice Transmission, “Peak elementary King Grade Celestial Beast… Jia Long, what type of Celestial Beast is he?”

“Uncle Bai is a Copper Flying Tiger. According to Uncle Bai, the Copper Flying Tiger is the weakest in the Flying Tiger Clan. The Silver Flying Tiger is a peak intermediate King Grade Celestial Beast. They’re able to become Six Combinations Celestial King. The Golden Flying Tiger is a peak advanced King Grade Celestial Beast. The highest cultivation base they can achieve is the level of a Nine Palaces Celestial King. Without rare fortuitous encounters, it’d be difficult for Golden Flying Tigers to become Ten Directions Celestial Kings! Only the Dark Golden Flying Tiger is able to become a Celestial Lord. However, they’re only limited to the One Basic Celestial Lord level, at most,” Huang Jia Long explained.

“The Dark Golden Flying Tiger?” Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow.

“Yes, a Dark Golden Flying Tiger!” Huang Jia Long nodded. “According to Uncle Bai, the Dark Golden Flying Tiger has the highest innate talent in the Flying Tiger Clan. They’re from the royal bloodline… Most Dark Golden Flying Tigers are bound to break through and become a One Basic Celestial Lord. If they want to grow stronger or become a Titled Celestial Lord, they’d need luck on their sides,” Huang Jia Long said.

“So, the Dark Golden Flying Tiger is a peak superior King Grade Celestial Beast, right? Based on my knowledge, generally, most superior King Grade Celestial Beasts stop improving once they become Ten Directions Celestial Kings, right?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

“Yes.” Huang Jia Long nodded.

Duan Ling Tian looked at the Green-Eyed Black Hawk beneath his feet before he shifted his eyes to Bai Gang who was standing next to Huang Yuan Fei, the City Governor of Passage City.

A thought suddenly surfaced in Duan Ling Tian’s mind so he turned to Huang Jia Long again and asked, “Jia Long, if I’m not mistaken, the Flying Tiger Clan and Old Mo’s clan are in the Southern Heaven Territory, right?”

As far as Duan Ling Tian knew, the majority of intelligent Celestial Beasts were gathered in Devata Realms such as the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven, the Phoenix Nest Heaven, the Crouching Dragon Heaven, and the White Tiger Heaven. The Celestial Beasts made up 80% of the population in these Devata Realms; the remaining percentage was mostly human and other life forms. The Ten Thousand Beast Heaven was the only Devata Realm in the 81 Devata Realms that had a 99% population of Celestial Beasts. This is because anyone who was not Celestial Beasts would be killed by Celestial Beasts in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven. One would need to be powerful enough to handle all the Celestial Beasts in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven if one wished to stay there! On the contrary, the Celestial Beasts in the other beast-centric Devata Realms were less extreme. They were not opposed to co-existing with humans and other life forms. However, the Celestial Beasts were extremely united. If humans or other life forms tried to hunt Celestial Beasts, the Celestial Beasts would undoubtedly unite to retaliate! The body parts of Celestial Beasts, especially powerful ones, were precious materials. They could be used in pill refining, forging weapons, and laying Formations. For these reasons, weak Celestial Beasts were usually hunted. For example, the Green-Eyed Black Hawk’s feathers were regarded as the least valuable parts. However, the feathers could be used to forge Duke Grade Celestial Weapons. If the pair of wings were to be given to a supreme King Grade Celestial Weapons Craftsman, it could be made into several King Grade Celestial Weapons! The Green-Eyed Black Hawk was a treasure coveted by many strong Celestial Kings. If they were not protected, they would certainly be hunted. However, seeing that Old Mo and Bai Gang openly appeared in the Supporting Fall Nation’s capital after staying in Passage City for so long, it was clear they had the protection of a formidable force. Otherwise, they would not have exposed themselves. For this reason, Duan Ling Tian speculated that Old Mo and Bai Gang’s clans were in the Southern Heaven Territory. This must be the reason why they were not targeted.

“Of course.” Huang Jia Long was not surprised by Duan Ling Tian’s speculation because it was common sense. Intelligent Celestial Beasts would only dare expose themselves in Devata Realms dominated by human beings if they had sufficient support. “In the Southern Heaven Territory, the Flying Tiger Clan is considered a huge clan among the Celestial Beast clans… According to Uncle Bai, there are no less than ten Dark Golden Flying Tigers in the main branch of the Flying Tiger Clan. They have branch clans everywhere. Within the Profound Nether Mansion, there’s one branch clan. It’s also the clan that Uncle Bai belongs to. Uncle Bai’s clan doesn’t have any Dark Goldens Flying Tigers, but they have no less than five Golden Flying Tigers. In fact, three of the Golden Flying Tigers in Uncle Bai’s clan are Ten Directions Celestial Kings! This is why Uncle Bai doesn’t bother to hide. Furthermore, King Grade Celestial Beasts are capable of leaving soul marks on their killers before they die… Even powerful Celestial Lords have extreme difficulties in removing the soul marks left by King Grade Celestial Beasts. So, if Uncle Bai is killed by an outsider, the members of his clan will definitely be able to trace his killer and avenge him. Since Celestial Beasts are rare in human-dominated Devata Realms, they’re very united. This is especially true when humans provoked them!”
