Chapter 55

Holding a broken spear, Ye Jun Tian hovered in the air, determined to see what this guy was up to.

Soon, the White Tiger began to scratch the ground with its paw. In the next moment, Ye Jun Tian was stunned. Because, the White Tiger was actually writing. Although the writing was very crooked and abstract, it could still be understood after some thought.

A tiger actually knew how to write, what kind of situation was this? Anyone would be confused. Who taught it? Could it be that these two White Tigers had an owner? And that their owner was an extremely powerful being, capable of teaching a White Tiger to write.

The White Tiger wrote: Human, let me go. I can guard your home or serve as your mount.

"Can you understand human speech?" Ye Jun Tian asked.

"Yes!" The White Tiger scratched with its paw.

"Who taught you?" Ye Jun Tian asked.

"A stone." The White Tiger scratched.

"A stone, a stone taught you to write?" Ye Jun Tian was increasingly confused.

"That's right, I'm not lying, it's really a stone. If you don't believe me, I can take you to see it. However, you can't harm my child. I will guard your home, and you will help raise my child. I keep my word, and the 'stone' also told me that when we tigers reach great accomplishment, we can transform into human form. And just like your human race, we can speak, write, marry, and have children." The White Tiger scratched and wrote.

"How is that possible, aren't you becoming a demon?" Ye Jun Tian simply couldn't believe it. He had never heard of fierce beasts or birds of prey turning into humans. Even the legendary 'Blood Wheel Realm' powerful beasts couldn't transform into humans.

"It's true, the stone told us. And the cultivation method we practice is also what the stone told us. Originally, our tiger clan had no cultivation method, we relied entirely on absorbing the elemental energy of heaven and earth to convert it into blood energy. I heard that powerful beasts, such as those at the Heavenly Martial Realm, would gradually learn the cultivation methods of humans. But we learned the cultivation method from the stone since we were young. The stone said that when we reach great accomplishment, we can transform into human form, just like humans." The White Tiger scratched and wrote.

"Then let's go see that stone?" Ye Jun Tian's interest was unprecedentedly high; this thing was truly mysterious.

"Okay, I can still walk. But my tiger servant is dead. I hope you can bury it. As for the pair of firebirds, you can deal with them as you see fit." The White Tiger scratched.

"Tiger servant, isn't it your clan brother?" Ye Jun Tian was taken aback.

"No, it's just my servant. Only a White Tiger that can understand human speech and write can be the master. And in our clan, only I can be the master. Only I and my child can practice the method taught by the stone. Other White Tigers can't, because they are too stupid. The stone said I have a connection with it because I was lucky and opened my spiritual intelligence." The White Tiger said.

Ye Jun Tian was quite astonished. There were actually distinctions within the White Tiger clan. He painfully buried the other dead tiger.

Because, the entire body of a White Tiger at the Earth Martial Realm was a treasure. If he carried this whole tiger back and sold it to the Strange Man Hall, he could definitely get three to forty thousand low-grade blood crystal coins.

Because, tiger bones could be ground into some weapons. Tiger blood was a treasure for cultivation. As for the heart, it was even more valuable, equivalent to a first-stage 'Blood Break Pill.' Ye Jun Tian kept his wits about him and secretly took out the heart, wrapped it, and put it in a leather bag.

As for the two firebirds, Ye Jun Tian was not at all polite. He collected their blood, dug out their hearts, and put them in a stone bottle. He didn't let the corpses go either, stuffing them into the leather bag. Because, their fur could also be sold for some money.

After a while, everything was cleaned up. Ye Jun Tian bandaged the White Tiger and then gave it a healing pill to swallow. An hour later, the White Tiger regained some strength and led Ye Jun Tian away. Although the White Tiger was injured, the aura of an Earth Martial Realm expert was still there.

Therefore, when some birds and beasts sensed this aura, they were scared and dared not come out to cause trouble. Especially for birds and beasts, the pressure of bloodline was much stronger than for humans.

After a while, they arrived at a towering peak that was seven or eight hundred stories high. The mountain was not large, with an estimated diameter of about two hundred meters. Steep cliffs surrounded the entire mountain.

However, strangely, the almost ninety-degree cliffs were covered with trees and flowers. These plants had deeply rooted themselves into the rock crevices, standing in the air.

Ye Jun Tian stared blankly at the mountain, because he was amazed by the tenacious spirit of these plants. To survive on such a vertical cliff, these plants had to pay a hundred times more 'sweat' than those growing on ordinary slopes.

The entire cliff face was covered with strong and thick roots, some as thin as hair, others as thick as large iron pots. It was like a huge network of veins enveloping the entire peak.

"Could it be that you live in the caves of this mountain?" Ye Jun Tian asked.

"No, we live on the mountaintop. There are stone caves and a water pond there." The White Tiger scratched and wrote.

For a White Tiger at the Earth Martial Realm, climbing such a vertical peak was not a problem, but Ye Jun Tian had to exert a lot of effort to climb to the top. Fortunately, there were those roots, otherwise, it would have been difficult to climb.

When he reached the top, Ye Jun Tian was stunned.

On the mountaintop, there was a natural stone pit, about fifty to sixty meters in diameter. The pit was filled with clear water, so transparent that the patterns of the stones at the bottom and some small holes could be seen clearly.

Of course, this did not confuse Ye Jun Tian. What confused him was that there was an independent stone in the center of the stone pit. The stone was taller than two people, with a thickness similar to a foot basin.

The color of the stone was flesh-colored, and it was covered with thick and thin stone veins. The thick ones were the size of thumbs, the thin ones the size of hair. These veins were very similar to human blood vessels.

What surprised Ye Jun Tian the most was that this stone looked like a 'placenta.' With the veins on the outside, it was like a fossilized placenta.

It was just that this placenta was too large. A distant aura surrounded the stone, and Ye Jun Tian felt his blood trembling.

It was as if he had a natural fear of this strange stone. It was like a king, even if it hadn't been born yet, it still inspired awe.

Would a Monkey King pop out of it? Ye Jun Tian thought humorously, how bizarre, a stone, am I afraid of it?

"By the way, why haven't I seen your tiger clan brothers?" Ye Jun Tian asked.

"There are no others, just me and a little tiger, my son." The White Tiger scratched and wrote.

"Where is your wife?" Ye Jun Tian asked.

"She was taken away." The White Tiger wrote and then, like a human, knelt before Ye Jun Tian, tears in its eyes, and scratched, "Master, my name is 'Bai Yi,' my wife's name is 'Bai Fang.'

We are both White Tigers with relatively pure bloodlines. A year ago, Bai Fang gave birth to my son 'Bai Ju.' While she was searching for food in the Fire Cloud Forest, she encountered a group of young people who were training.

One of them, named 'Wan Yang,' was very powerful. He said his family had a male tiger and needed a female tiger, so my wife was taken away.
