Meanwhile, deep in Raya Mountains, in a corner where even ordinary Mutant Beasts were hard to find. 

 

*Snore snore…* The sound of snoring was as deafening as the thunder itself, even causing the air to vibrate. Upon closer inspection, one would find waves of flames billowing in the air.

 

It was as if waves of fire were spreading in the air. And this was just happening unintentionally when a Mutant Beast was snoring.

 

*Gulp!* Gulping hard in nervousness, Qing Gang, who was not far from the Mutant Beast, was mouth agape at the sight of this. A look of shock and horror took over his face.

 

[Are you kidding me?] He thought that he would be strong enough after becoming an Elemental Lifeform.

 

However, after searching the land hard using his senses, he had found such a monster. A monster that could create billowing waves of flames unconsciously while snoring.

 

Its terrifying pressure was such that one’s heart and soul could not stop trembling.

 

He happened to be very familiar with this monster. Its physique boasted a plump, rotund form covered in contrasting black and white fur. A circular face with large coal-black eye patches, complemented by a pair of endearing furry black ears perched atop its head.

 

In its entirety, it looked extremely cute.

 

This was China’s national treasure–Panda. Renowned worldwide for its cuteness.

 

However, now, looking at the Panda lying on its back, gently patting its belly with its front paws as if sleeping, Qing Gang could not associate it with the word cute.

 

“Darn it, a Tier-2 Transcendent, and not just an ordinary Tier-2 Transcendent?”

 

Qing Gang could not help but roar inside as an instinct to run away gripped his heart and soul.

 

[I can’t afford it, I really can’t afford to provoke this monster.] Even if rich Fire-Attribute Spiritual Energy was surging behind this monster, evidence of a Fire-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine, he did not want to provoke it.

 

One wrong move, and he would lose his life.

 

“No, I need to inform Lord Divine Tree right away. Only Lord Divine Tree can suppress this monster.”

 

Having reached a decision, Qing Gang’s head quickly retracted back into the ground as he prepared to retreat into the distance.

 

However, just at this moment, a silly voice suddenly rang in his mind, “Since you’re here, why are you leaving?”

 

Just as it started speaking, the Panda lying flat next to the Fire-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine suddenly kicked its legs and turned over.

 

Immediately afterward, it kicked the ground. With a deafening boom, successive waves of fire covered the earth, turning this place into a sea of flames in the blink of an eye.

 

“My god…” Crying in surprise, a figure was shaken out of the ground.

 

“Um…” Perplexed, Qing Gang was utterly perplexed.

 

He could not understand how his Elementalization could be interrupted.

 

At this moment, as he slowly raised his gaze, Qing Gang saw a chubby figure approaching him in unsteady steps.

 

Qing Gang shook his head, as if trying to clear his thoughts a bit.

 

Then, the chubby figure sat down on the ground with a thud, kicking up a cloud of dust.

 

“You…” Qing Gang slightly opened his mouth, but was unable to say anything. He was left utterly speechless.

 

Much to Qing Gang astonishment, this Panda happened to be wearing spike boots on its lower limbs and a symmetrical black cape over its shoulders.

 

While it looked quite imposing, it appeared messy and out of place.

 

As if sensing Qing Gang’s gaze, the Panda raised its spiky boots and proudly stated, “These are shoes I imitated from Humans. Don’t they look nice? You should know that these boots are made from the hide of a Transcendent Creature, the Black Python. They are not only comfortable to wear but they also have incredible defense.”

 

“Uh…” Stunned for a moment, Qing Gang’s face turned slightly stiff.

 

After a while, Qing Gang’s eyes widened, as if realizing something incredible.

 

“You… you can talk to me, and also make clothes?” Qing Gang stuttered, utterly dumbfounded.

 

[Are you kidding me!? A Panda that can talk and make clothes!? How does that make sense!?]

 

Had it been the Mutant Beasts of North Canyon, he could have accepted it. After all, those Mutant Beasts had received teachings from him and Thorn, the ‘Humans’.

 

Communication with them was naturally not difficult. However, in the wilderness, this was the first time he had encountered a Mutant Beast that actively communicated with him. What baffled him even more was that this Mutant Beast could even make clothes.

 

“Uh…” Qing Gang’s head was filled with confusion, he felt like he was going nuts.

 

At this moment, apparently enjoying Qing Gang’s reaction, the Panda grinned and proudly proclaimed, “I’m a genius, you know?”

 

Saying so, the Panda added, seemingly showing off, “Back then, I was served by a group of Humans, and ate the fresh bamboo sent by Humans from thousands of kilometers away. The taste was indescribably delightful. And let me tell you, at that time, thousands of Humans hunted me, but I still managed to escape. It made me laugh so hard that I was rolling on the floor…Those Humans are so silly, so cute…”

 

 

Like a chatterbox who had not talked to anyone for a long time, the Panda kept spouting words like a machine gun, leaving Qing Gang scratching his head, wondering if he was having a fever or an illusion.

 

“What is it, are you feeling hot? Well, we’re deep in the mountains, and there is a Fire-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine nearby, so it’s normal to feel hot.”

 

Saying that, the Panda casually grabbed toward the Fire-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine behind its back.

 

*Crack*

 

With a crisp sound, a large piece of sparkling red crystal fell into its paw.

 

After a while, ignoring Qing Gang’s astonishment, it opened its mouth and swallowed the Fire-Attribute Spirit Stone. 

 

*Crunch, crunch…*

 

A crisp sound of chewing filled the air as Panda patted its chest without minding Qing Gang’s amazement.

 

“It feels so good…”

 

Stretching out its mouth wide, yawning, a large burst of flames spewed from its mouth.

 

At this moment, as if it had noticed Qing Gang’s astonished expression again, the Panda wiped its mouth and laughed heartily, stating, “Are you dumbfounded? This is the biggest secret of our Panda Tribe, it’s never been revealed before.”

 

But before Qing Gang could react, the Panda leaned close to Qing Gang’s ear and whispered, “And the secret is that we Pandas can consume minerals to become stronger. And I’m even more amazing; I can even eat Spirit Stones.”

 

“Um…”

 

Qing Gang’s face turned a bit stiff as he glanced at the cute and silly-looking Panda next to him and asked in amazement, “Didn’t you say it’s never been revealed?”

 

“What revealed!?”

 

The Panda blinked its eyes and stated, looking all surprised, “Did I? Did I say something? Also, who are you? How did you get into my home? Do not think that wearing Human skin, I would not know you’re a unique lifeform.”

 

“Hurry, hurry, quickly come and tell me. Who are you? Why have you come to my place? What are your intentions?”

 

Although it carried a hint of threat in its words, the Panda’s adorable appearance made Qing Gang almost burst into laughter.

 

However, at this moment, he seemed to realize that this Panda was indeed a bit silly and cute.

 

At least, until now, it had not shown any signs of hostility.
