The minor tribulation has ended.
Hongluan and the other demonic beasts rushed over, their faces filled with excitement.
At this moment, Lu Chen turned around and looked at the dragon-scaled divine lion lying on the ground, which had turned into a lump of charcoal, and frowned slightly.
"He's not dead yet!"
Lu Chen was surprised to find that the Dragon Scale Divine Lion was severely injured and barely clinging to life. The power of the Heavenly Tribulation was truly too great for it.
If I hadn't taken the brunt of the damage for him, the Dragon Scale Lion would probably have been killed this time.
But now, having survived the minor tribulation, he has also undergone a complete transformation.
Suddenly, the pile of coke cracked open inch by inch, revealing streaks of golden light, seemingly the glow emanating from the scales of the dragon-scaled divine lion.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the dragon-scaled divine lion seemed to have shed a layer of skin, its charred body completely transformed, and in its place appeared a completely different form.
"It's changed again?"
Lu Chen was completely stunned when he saw the dragon-scaled divine lion in front of him.
Hongluan and the other demonic beasts were also stunned.
"This is... a Qilin?"
The Dragon Scale Divine Lion had undergone tremendous changes. After being refined by heavenly lightning, the Jade Qilin blood had completely merged into its body, and that golden light had completely transformed its body. At this moment, it had shed its original lion appearance and become more like a true divine beast, the Qilin.
But there are slight differences.
It resembles a qilin, with four hooves like dragon claws and a tail like a dragon's tail, but it also has two dragon horns.
At the same time, his entire body was covered with golden dragon scales.
He exuded an aura of nobility.
"A mythical beast?"
Lu Chen was startled.
Suddenly, the strange golden beast that resembled both a dragon and a scale transformed into a half-human form, becoming a tall man with dragon horns on his head and dragon scales all over his body.
"Thank you for saving me, Master!"
When he opened his mouth, he spoke human language.
Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. He really thought that this guy had turned into a divine beast after being struck by lightning.
It seems impossible. Divine beasts are born that way; it's impossible to raise them into divine beasts through various opportunities later in life. Divine beasts are already rare; if it were that easy, they would be everywhere.
But Lu Chen sensed that this guy, in terms of bloodline and strength, was probably no less than an ordinary divine beast.
At least that aura, like that of a mythical beast, is genuine.
“Not bad, you’re practically half a person now. Let me give you a name. What should I call you? Hmm, it looks like a dragon… I’ll call you Long Aotian!” Lu Chen said with a mischievous grin.
"Thank you for bestowing the name upon me, Master. Long Aotian? I like this name!"
Long Aotian was overjoyed. His strength had greatly increased after surviving the minor tribulation, which made him extremely grateful.
"Alright, who's next?" Lu Chen was preoccupied with the matter of undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation.
"It's my turn!"
The fox demon Xiaobai blinked, looking expectant.
"good!"
Six days later, Xiaobai finally faced her own minor tribulation, which was much weaker than those of Hongluan and Long Aotian.
Lu Chen, of course, showed no mercy and charged directly into the range of the Heavenly Tribulation, absorbing another wave of heavenly lightning.
After surviving the minor tribulation, Lu Chen felt as if his entire body was electrified.
Another two weeks passed.
Xiong Ba has also survived his minor tribulation and has now truly become a great demon with unparalleled strength.
Moonshadow Cat also successfully passed the minor heavenly tribulation and became a great demon.
At this point, among all the demonic beasts in Lu Chen's Demon Suppression Tower, only the Black Feathered Golden Eagle, which is currently at level eight, and the Crimson Blood Flood Dragon, a level six spirit beast, have not yet undergone the Lesser Heavenly Tribulation.
"Let's go, to Black Dragon City!"
Lu Chen gave the order.
"Master, let's keep a low profile and let me take you there!"
The black-feathered golden eagle looked at its master, Lu Chen, with anticipation. He was currently the weakest among all the demon beasts and was extremely panicked.
"Alright!"
Lu Chen nodded, leaped onto the back of the black-feathered golden eagle, and flew directly towards Black Dragon City.
After they had gone far away.
The monsters around the lake gradually returned, but none of them dared to set foot on the large island in the middle.
The flight took almost half a month.
Lu Chen finally saw Black Dragon City in the distance.
It was an incomparably magnificent city, far surpassing all human cities, like a colossal beast, suppressing the depths of the entire Black Dragon Mountain Range.
"The most powerful being in the Black Dragon Mountains is the Lord of Black Dragon City. It is said that the Lord of Black Dragon City is a divine beast, a black dragon! A demon emperor who survived the Great Heavenly Tribulation!"
Hongluan whispered a reminder to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen nodded, having gained a sufficient understanding of the cultivation levels and strength of demonic beasts.
After a demon beast breaks through the ninth level and becomes a true great demon, it must undergo a minor heavenly tribulation.
Only when a spirit beast breaks through the ninth level and survives the minor heavenly tribulation can it become a true demon king.
Only divine beasts that break through the ninth level and survive the minor heavenly tribulation become demon emperors.
All demonic beasts will face a great tribulation, but overcoming it is extremely difficult.
There's still a sliver of hope for the mythical beasts, but not much.
"With my strength, playing the role of a spirit beast that has survived a minor heavenly tribulation shouldn't be a problem, right? Haha!"
Lu Chen's chaotic energy can conceal his aura, making him perfectly suited to impersonate a demon king.
He had made preparations before entering Black Dragon City.
"We'll go to Black Dragon City, the territory of this demonic beast, and try to gain as much benefit as possible. By the way, I've heard a legend about Black Dragon City: a terrifying extraterrestrial beast is suppressed beneath the city. Is that true?"
Lu Chen had heard many rumors before.
The Black Dragon Mountain Range was originally the territory of demonic beasts, but they always lived alone, at most gathering in groups, unlike humans who built cities and lived there.
However, the Black Dragon, the Demon Emperor of Black Dragon City, is here to suppress a strange beast from outer space. This beast is extremely brutal, killing anyone it sees, regardless of whether they are human or demon, and it is impossible to completely eliminate it.
Therefore, the demon race sent the Black Dragon Demon Emperor to seal this strange beast beneath Black Dragon City.
This alien beast gave Lu Chen a lot to guess about.
"Master, what is this alien beast?"
The demon beasts, including Hongluan, had been trapped in the Demon Suppression Tower and knew less about it than Lu Chen, so they were all very curious.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "I'm curious too! Let's go into the city!"
A man and an eagle arrived at the foot of Black Dragon City.
The massive city gate of Black Dragon City was incredibly sturdy. Standing before it, Lu Chen felt as small as an ant.
"Stop! What are you doing?"
Four spirit beasts guarding the city gate blocked Lu Chen's path.
These four spirit beasts are all from the Bull Clan. They are large in size, wield giant tridents, and are majestic and extraordinary.
Their own strength had reached the level of a seventh-level spirit beast, but in this Black Dragon City, they could only guard the city gate.
"Black Dragon City is indeed the true gathering place of the demon race's strongest warriors!"
Lu Chen, emanating a demonic aura, stepped forward and said lazily, "What are we doing? Entering the city, of course!"
"Ah? The Demon King!"
The four bull demons sensed Lu Chen's presence and were immediately startled. They opened the city gate and said, "Please come in, sir!"
