Monarch Of Time

Chapter 254 - 254 The black pantherʼs breakthrough

The moment that he appeared in the room, Shun Long didnʼt hesitate, as he opened the door and rushed out in an instant.

In the courtyard outside the room, Liu Mei was looking at the black panther from a distance, as powerful waves of energy were being emitted from the pantherʼs body.

Shun Longʼs eyes lit up when he noticed that Liu Meiʼs cultivation had advanced to the peak of rank 1 in the Spirit realm.

Although 4 months had passed for Shun Long inside the foggy place in the ʼStone of Timeʼ, barely 12 days had passed for Liu Mei.

Additionally, in these 12 days, the 2 of them hadnʼt dual cultivated once, and yet Liu Mei had already reached the peak of rank 1 in the Spirit realm.

Liu Mei felt a sense of joy in her heart when she saw Shun Long appearing out of nowhere, as she hurriedly said

ʼʼLong-ge... this...ʼʼ

Shun Long nodded his head at Liu Mei, before his eyes were once again focused on the ʼSilver-winged panther kingʼ.

The pantherʼs eyes were closed while his aura was rising non-stop, and it had already destroyed half the courtyard in the process.

Shun Long immediately understood, that the black panther was trying to breakthrough to the 6th rank.

After taking a deep breath, Shun Long tried to take a step forward and approach closer to the black panther, but once he reached within 100 meters distance, the energy fluctuations coming from the pantherʼs body grew so powerful, that they sent him flying backwards instead.

The commotion that the black panther had caused, had not only been noticed by the rest of the people in the ʼGolden Pig innʼ, but some Dao King realm experts from the western part of the city had also been alarmed as well, including experts from the ʼGolden Exchange firmʼ and the ʼMercenariesʼ Associationʼ.

Gritting his teeth, Shun Longʼs eyes turned serious, as he then summoned Little Black from the ʼStone of Timeʼ.

The black dragonʼs 10m(33ft) tall body appeared in the courtyard, as Little Black stared at the black panther in front of him.

After sending out his soul sense to scan the area around the courtyard as far as he could, Little Black looked at Shun Long before he said with a telepathic message

ʼʼMaster, more than 10 Dao Kings have already noticed the commotion, and they are all coming to the inn.

2 of them have actually reached the middle stages of the Dao King realm as well.ʼʼ

Nodding his head, Shun Long had a serious look in his eyes as he heard Little Blackʼs voice.

Although a peak rank 5 magic beast like the ʼSilver-winged panther kingʼ may not have been enough to incite the greed of strong Dao Kings, a rank 6 magic beast was completely different.

A rank 6 beast was at the same level as a Dao King himself.

Even an early rank 6 magic beast could fight against a rank 3 Dao King head-on without any problem.

Only late-stage Dao King realm experts were allowed to have such beasts as their mounts, and no one would allow Shun Long to keep the black panther in that case.

With his eyes focused on the black panther, Shun Long then said

ʼʼLittle Black, block off the energy waves for me!ʼʼ

Little Black immediately understood what Shun Long wanted to do.

Without any hesitation, the black dragon nodded his head, as his powerful aura of an early rank 6 magic beast exploded from his body.

The black dragonʼs aura covered Shun Long from head to toe, shielding him completely from the black pantherʼs powerful energy waves.

Activating the Gale steps, Shun Long quickly arrived in front of the ʼSilver-winged panther kingʼ, before he forcefully placed him in the ʼStone of Timeʼ.

At the same time, the Dao Kings who were flying towards Shun Longʼs courtyard had all noticed that the aura of an early rank 6 magic beast had also appeared for a moment, before the black pantherʼs aura had suddenly disappeared.

However, instead of lowering their speed, they hurried towards the ʼGolden pig innʼ even faster than before.

ʼʼMaster, there is one peak rank 5 Dao King coming from the east, and he is the fastest one so far. His soul sense will soon cover the ʼGolden pig innʼ completely.ʼʼ

Nodding his head, Shun Long used blink once, as he appeared in front of Little Black and Liu Mei.

As soon as Little Black returned to the ʼStone of Timeʼ, Shun Long clenched his right fist and punched the air the front of him.

His fist exploded with the full power of the ʼMonarchʼs Eternal bodyʼ, as a 3m(10ft) long space tear was opened in front of him and Liu Mei.

Without waiting for Liu Meiʼs reaction, Shun Long grabbed her hand as he shot inside the space tear.

The moment that Shun Long and Liu Mei entered inside it, the space tear instantly disappeared.

A few breaths of time later, a middle-aged man who was dressed in black robes appeared above Shun Longʼs and Liu Meiʼs courtyard.

He had clearly sensed 2 people at the rank 1 of the Spirit realm in this courtyard earlier, along with an early rank 6 magic beast, before they had instantly disappeared.

Even though his soul sense had covered the entire ʼGolden pig innʼ, the middle-aged man failed to locate the 2 of them.

After closing his eyes, the man started to expand his soul sense even further than the ʼGolden pig innʼ.

At the same time, an old man who was holding a wooden cane in his left hand and had almost no hair left on his head, had also arrived above Shun Longʼs and Liu Meiʼs courtyard.

The old man barely threw a glance at the middle-aged man in black robes, before his eyes were focused on the spot where Shun Long had opened his space tear just a few moments ago.
