Chapter 5825: King of the River
That was sealing one\'s own fate!
Now, following Jian Wushuang was the only option, albeit reluctantly.
They came along unwillingly.
Jian Wushuang beckoned and smiled, "Brother Kababon, these are my subordinates, their strength is decent, right?"
"Not bad!" Kababon replied, showing a smile to everyone and warmly greeted them.
Jian Wushuang rubbed his hands, "Shall we set off then?"
"No problem!"
Kababon dispersed his subordinates, leaving only a few peak Third Tribulation realm savage beasts to accompany them. With Jian Wushuang\'s group, they flew towards the depths of the mountain range.
On the way, Jian Wushuang was told about many treasures and dangers within the mountains.
At the same time, they discussed the forces within this riverbed mountain range.
There were three major forces in total.
One was the Azure Water Serpent Mansion.
It was the force where Sly Snake from earlier belonged.
The master of the mansion was a peak Fifth Tribulation realm powerhouse.
Conflict between the two factions was frequent.
However, they dared not escalate things.
After all, a Sixth Tribulation realm force, if truly engaged in battle, would have no rivals.
Apart from the Azure Water Serpent Mansion, there was another force, also established by a Fifth Tribulation realm powerhouse, but it was not in the Southern Mountain Range; rather, it was near the northern waters close of the Infinite Great World.
They generally didn\'t interact, so there wasn\'t much introduction about them.
The story mainly revolves around the forces established by the River King.
"Weilong Mountain!"
A superpower constructed by beings of a Special Life Form at the level of the Sixth Tribulation realm.
Originally, Jian Wushuang thought that this River King was a savage beast, but he didn\'t expect it to be a Special Life Form.
That made its combat power even more formidable. Its divine power was probably close to breaking the million mark.
Standing behind him, Li Sheng felt a chill run down his spine.
A million divine power was suffocating for them.
The River King, also known as \'Tamu King\', had a giant nine-eyed sky toad as its true form. But Jian Wushuang couldn\'t help but sneer inwardly, "Just a big toad, isn\'t it?"
As a Sixth Tribulation realm powerhouse, he had seen much more. There was no need to fear!
He comforted himself inwardly.
Indeed, he had seen a lot.
He had encountered Universe Masters of the Sixth Tribulation and even had close encounters with super-beings at the Half-Step Ninth Tribulation realm.
Facing those kinds of powerhouses was the real suffocating experience.
On the other hand, the so-called \'god\', Weiss!
He didn\'t feel any oppression from the opponent.
It was just a tense feeling during the battle.
Among the strong individuals he encountered through Babidi, the weakest were at the Seventh Tribulation realm.
Not only did it broaden his horizons, but it also maximized his ability to withstand pressure.
Weilong Mountain!
Let\'s go and challenge this Weilong Mountain.
Besides Tamu King, there were also three Law Kings in Weilong Mountain.
They were all top-level experts at the level of the Fifth Tribulation realm.
Among the ranks of the Fourth Tribulation realm, there were many strong individuals, numbering up to a hundred.
However, only eight of them could become guardians.
Kababon was one of them, ranking as the eighth.
His strength peaked at the Fourth Tribulation realm, even in his current contracted form, he possessed the power of 500,000 divine power.
If he were to fully unleash his true form, he could reach up to 550,000 divine power.
Such strength placed him among the top-tier warriors even among the Fourth Tribulation realm masters of the human race.
Jian Wushuang, in his current state, possessed a divine power of 550,000, not to mention his status as a descendant of the Beast God.
Others speculated that if he were to unleash his true form, he might possess 600,000 divine power.
The reason why savage beasts usually maintained a humanoid form was not just to mimic the human race, but also because they found that condensing their divine bodies could conserve
divine power.
Maintaining their true forms consumed too much energy.
It was more efficient to condense their divine bodies into the smallest humanoid form
possible, saving a considerable amount of divine power.
Savage beasts might seem carefree on the surface, but their internal conflicts were no less intense than those of the human race.
With every blink of their eyes, they were ready to fight for opportunities.
It was almost a skirmish every three days and a major battle every ten days.
However, despite their seemingly aggressive nature, they were quite conservative in actual combat.
In the recent skirmish, for instance, none of them resorted to unleashing their true forms. They knew when to draw the line.
This observation surprised Jian Wushuang. Throughout their conversation, he had developed
a fondness for Kababon.
Despite belonging to different races, they shared a mutual respect, which left Jian Wushuang
impressed.
"Here we are!"
Kababon\'s pace slowed as he came to a halt.
Before them loomed a majestic mountain peak.
In this mountain range, it definitely ranked in the top three.
From its summit, one could overlook all the other mountains.
"Weilong Mountain!" Jian Wushuang muttered to himself, then turned to ask, "Kababon,
does Weilong Mountain really have dragons?"
Kababon chuckled upon hearing the question.
"Brother, you\'ve guessed right. Weilong Mountain indeed has dragons, but they\'re not real dragons. The divine bodies of real dragons are comparable to those of Beast Gods. It\'s extremely difficult to reach the Tribulation Realm. There isn\'t a single true dragon in the
entire Roman River!"
"In that case, what about Weilong Mountain?" Jian Wushuang pointed to the peak.
Only then did Kababon explain, "While there are no true dragons, there are still dragon-like creatures known as scaled dragon. Weilong Mountain was once inhabited by a black scaled dragon. After it was defeated by our king and submitted under his rule, the king found the name quite imposing and decided to keep it!"
"A black scaled dragon?" Jian Wushuang furrowed his brow, thinking to himself, "What a
small world!"
Li Sheng\'s expression also darkened.
They had been relentlessly pursued by a Jiaolong, forced to transform into savage beasts.
Could the black scaled dragon of Weilong Mountain be the same one they encountered?
If so, it would just go to show how unpredictable life can be! Most likely, the powerful spectators outside would marvel at their experiences.
Fortunately, they had all transformed their essences, so even if they encountered it, it
wouldn\'t matter much.
Kababon led them to the foot of the mountain.
Upon seeing Kababon, the savage beast guarding the mountain gate showed utmost respect.
"The lord guardian has returned!"
"Hmm, has anything significant happened on the mountain recently?" Kababon casually
inquired.
The gatekeeper beast shook his head, replying, "Thanks to the efforts of the guardian lord expanding our territory, the mountain gate remains safe!"
"Here\'s your reward!" Kababon casually tossed out some treasures, giving them to the two
gatekeeper beasts.
They were overjoyed.
Seeing unfamiliar faces, though they didn\'t recognize them, they felt the overwhelming divine power, even stronger than Kababon\'s, and quickly saluted respectfully.
Seeing this, Jian Wushuang signaled to Li Sheng.
Li Sheng had no choice but to follow suit, taking out some treasures from his mustard seed
bag and tossing them to the two beasts.
"Forget about them, let\'s go in!" Kababon appreciated Jian Wushuang\'s approach.
However, Li Sheng felt it unnecessary.
Since rewards were given, why not give them personally rather than making him pay for it?
The impression of Jian Wushuang being stingy was etched into his mind.
From the moment they entered the mountains, he had been constantly picking up scraps.
And now, he was being miserly.
Jian Wushuang didn\'t care about others\' opinions of him.
All he knew was that this time, he had exerted a lot of effort to protect these few people.
If they had to give up some treasures, so be it!
Following Kababon, they ascended Weilong Mountain.
