Inside a mountain cave in the outer area of the Saint Tiger Demon Beast"s Clan, Ling Chen sat in a meditative on the cold floor.

Not too far from him, there was Ling Lei and the others. They all sat in a meditative as well. However, unlike Ling Chen and Ling Lei, they all seemed to be injured. It was as if they"ve just gone through a heaven-defying battle.

Especially, Ling Wei, he had a shocking wound on his stomach and seven more on his back and arms. However, aside from the one in his stomach, most of them were just skin-deep and only two or three of them looked really severe

Aside from him, Ling Zheng didn"t look better either. There were bite marks and claws marks all over his body. Fang Lan wasn"t that bad. Aside from some superficial wounds, he looked fine.

As for the girls, aside from looking exhausted, they didn"t have any wounds on their bodies.

After an hour of meditating, the various wounds which had originally covered their bodies have all but disappeared.

Even the shocking large wound which was on Ling Wei"s stomach had disappeared as well. Furthermore, there wasn"t a single scar on their bodies either and they seemed to be in perfect condition.

"Indeed, they"ve have inherited my incomparably miraculous self-healing ability. Though it wasn"t as fast and as strong as mine, it"s still incredible." Ling Chen inwardly thought as he was looking at both Ling Wei and Ling Zheng.

Not too long ago they were badly injured after fighting against twenty Demon Sovereign and five Demon Venerable all by themselves without his help, however, now they all looked fresh and new after an hour of meditation.

"You guys did very well. I am very satisfied with the result of your training. With your current strength, handling the Saint Tiger Demon Beast"s Clan won"t be a problem." Ling Chen said with a pleased expression on his face while he was looking at the seven of them that have already awakened from their meditation.

Upon hearing Ling Chen"s compliments, whether it was Ling Wei, Ling Zheng, and the others, their faces were beaming with joy. To them, there was nothing greater than to be praised by their divine father.

It wasn"t a lie, Ling Chen was truly happy with the result of their training. In just four days, they"ve gone from six little brats to six powerful warriors capable of destroying any of the remaining thirteen great influence of the Heaven Desolate Region, except for the EVil Saint Dragon Sect.

From the seven of them, Ling Lei was the strongest. His strength was already comparable to that of a Peak Martial Venerable Warrior, adding his powerful black lightning power which was capable of destroying and consuming anything and everything it came across, he could even hold himself against a Half-Saint powerhouse.

Second, there was Ling Zheng. After four days of constant fighting against various demon beasts, not only his strength has grown comparable to that of a Middle-stage Martial Venerable, he had also become more adept in using his gravity power.

Now, he could effortlessly increase the gravity in his domain to crush and immobilize his opponents, decreasing it to render them defenseless, or surrounding his body in a gravitational field to amplify physical strength

He could use it defensively by creating a gravitational force-field around to repel all manner of attacks or anchoring himself to the ground

He could also create many more miniature black holes to compress objects into oblivion. He could also use his power to repel and attract any objects in a manner similar to telekinesis.

Third was none other than Ling Wei. With his ma.s.sive and muscular body that was like a bodybuilder, he was a force to be reckoned with.

He was fearless and stubborn as a rock. With his Earth Elemental power, he was simply a giant tank in human form. Not only he became more proficient in manipulating the physical aspects of earth, such as rock, etc., but he could also use it to further increase his physical strength and defense.

As for the three girls, they all came in fourth place. Due to the fact that they were fighting the weaker opponents and didn"t use their full power, it was kind of hard for Ling Chen to distinguish who was stronger. Nonetheless, their strength was similar to that of Early Stage Martial Venerable.

Fang Lan came in the last position with his Martial Emperor realm cultivation base. After he transformed into his Dragon Warrior"s form, he was able to hold himself against an Early Martial Sovereign realm.

Ling Chen wasn"t worried too much about Fang Lan"s slow growth despite being his first follower because he knew that once he broke through the Martial Sovereign realm and awakened his true black fire ability, even Ling Lei would have a hard time fighting him. He would turn into a beast of destruction.

"Alright, you guys should also get ready to move out. By now, the Saint Beast Bai Wudi should already be aware that we have infiltrated their clan."

"Just like I mentioned earlier, I"ll take care of Bai Wudi. Ling Lei, Ling Zheng, Ling Wei, the three of you will take off all the demon Venerable beasts."

"As for Fang Lan and three of you, all the demon sovereign beasts and below are yours. If you are done earlier, you can go and help your brothers."

"Remember, the moment you find yourself in a deadly situation with no way out, don"t forget to crush that small dark tree roots I gave you, it"ll teleport you back to my inner world." Explained Ling Chen with a serious look on his face.

When it comes to his precious children, Ling Chen didn"t want to be reckless and took all the precautions possible to ensure their survival. It"s true that he wanted them to become strong enough to protect themselves. However, he didn"t want to send them to their death in the process either.

The six of them, including Fang Lan and Hu"er, were all very precious and irreplaceable to him. As such, he didn"t want to lose any of them. They were all his family and the people that would one day follow him to the end of this world.

" Wh--what about me?"

When Ling Chen was done explaining everything to Ling Lei and the rest, he suddenly heard a slight stuttering voice which was cold as ice in his mind.

Ling Chen was immediately startled;" Who"s there?" He said as he stood up and looked around.

At the same time, his powerful spiritual sense was already scanning the whole area like a radar.

The cold icy voice that rang within his mind belonged to a female. However, It was his first time hearing that voice.

While Ling Chen was looking around, he noticed Hu"er that was laying on the ground next to Ling Bing staring at him with its eyes full of excitement.

"Hu"er, was it your voice that I just heard in my mind?" Ling Chen suddenly asked as he was looking at Hu"er in disbelief.

"Yeah, it"s me. I"ve already broken through the peak of 6th rank, so I automatically gained the ability to use spiritual sense communication." Answered Hu"er in a cold tone.

"Hha, very good, very good!!!" Ling Chen"s eyes glittered with excitement. He has been waiting for this moment for a long time.

"You are capable of spiritual sense communication but not speech?" Ling Chen asked.

Upon hearing Ling Chen"s question, Hu"er shook her head powerlessly before saying: " Yes, right now I can only spiritual sense to comminate with you. Once I breakthrough the 8th rank, not only I will be able to speak human, I will also be able to transform into human form."

"That"s great! That"s great! " Listening to Hu"er"s answer, Ling Chen couldn"t help but say that"s great two times to explain his happiness.

Ling Chen already knew demon beasts that broke through the 8th rank could transform into a human form. However, Hu"er wasn"t a regular demon beast.

Her mother was the only black fox in her clan, the black fox that only appeared once every ten thousand years according to their legend. Hu"er herself was also a black fox and her father was a tiger with a divine bloodline.

"Listen, I already know everything that happened to my mother as well to the Nine-Tail Fox Clan. So, I wanted to partic.i.p.ate in that war." Coldly said Hu"er while her little body was radiating a powerful murderous aura.

Ling Chen was startled after knowing that Hu"er was aware of everything that happened with her mother and the Nine-Tail Fox Clan. She didn"t think that her mother would let her know that.

At the same time, he also felt a little sad because he knew how Hu"er was feeling right now. Nonetheless, he didn"t want to let her partic.i.p.ate in that war because she was still too weak.

"Please." Hu"er"s pleading voice rang out inside Ling Chen"s mind again. She could tell that Ling Chen was hesitating and probably didn"t want her to partic.i.p.ate in that war.

She also understood why Ling Chen wouldn"t want to take part in that war. At the same time, she didn"t want to miss this opportunity to get revenge for her clan.
