Chapter 1010 Paragon-Level Golden Suanni
The Peak Rank 2 Transcendent-level Golden Suanni was promoted to the Paragon level after having its blood refinement by Leon.
And after it received a partial bloodline awakening to reach the Paragon level, it opened its Wisdom Gate and unlocked memories from its past ancestors.
As a result, the Paragon-level Golden Suanni gained many skills and techniques related to the Golden Suanni Race and learned how to understand and speak the human tongue.
Despite its rapid growth, which could put its present strength on par with Rainshine, the Paragon-level Golden Suanni didn’t have a single rebellious thought—at least not towards Leon.
The Paragon-level Golden Suanni and the rest of its family were completely loyal to him.
Even if they were reduced to lackeys, their present lives would still be better than their past life.
By following Leon, they get to enjoy good food and have opportunities to awaken their ancestral bloodline.
What more could they ask for?
Even the five lionesses were all promoted to High Rank 2 Transcendent-level Golden Suannis. Only the cubs’ strengths remain unchanged as Leon deemed them too young to experience blood refinements.
Besides the big cats’ improvements, Leon had also used some of the Golden Suanni Origin Blood he gained from the Paragon-level Golden Suanni to raise his bone forging phase up to Peak Rank 1 Body Transformation.
Furthermore, Leon became a Tier-3 Spirit Chef from the repeated practice in spirit cooking. He could make tier-3 spirit food without losing any precious energy in the cooking process.
Apart from that, one of his divine consciousness, the one working runes, had completely absorbed all the knowledge on tier-4 runes and started comprehending tier-5 runes.
He could be considered a supreme Tier-4 Runemaster, but not for long.
Once his divine consciousness comprehends his first tier-5 rune, Leon would advance to become an Early Tier-5 Runemaster.
…
At that moment, Leon roasted a few freshly-killed hyenas that the Paragon-level Golden Suanni had brought back from its hunt.
”After this meal, you will lead us to the Golden Suanni Clan’s main territory, Cindertail,” Leon suddenly said as he was brushing mixed herbal juice onto the slow-roasting hyena meat.
Cindertail was precisely the name of the Paragon-level Golden Suanni, which Leon had learned shortly after it learned to speak in the human tongue.
”What about my family, Master?” Cindertail inquired before raising his concern, “The Golden Suanni Clan’s main territory is quite far away from here. I’m afraid something will happen to my family if I leave them for too long.”
”You can bring them along. We can travel together,” Leon said as he threw a casual glance at Cindertail’s big body.
After Cindertail experienced his partial bloodline awakening and was promoted to the Paragon level, his body to the size of an average full-grown elephant.
”Thank you, Master!” Cindertail said gratefully.
”It’s not a big deal. Don’t worry about that,” Leon casually shook his before mentioning, “You said that all the golden suannis’ lairs are all like yours throughout the jungle?”
”Yes, Master,” Cindertail confirmed.
”How strange.”
As Leon rotated the marinated hyena meat over the spitfire, he glanced at the towering jungle trees at the far edges of the grassland in the distance.
”This vast grassland doesn’t seem like something that was artificially made according to your clan’s preference. Why would the western jungle have so many empty grassland regions like this within it?” Leon wondered.
”To be honest, I’m not quite sure, Master,” Cindertail scratched his head with a baffled look and said, “I only know that the jungle has always been like this.”
”Always been like this, huh?” Leon softly muttered.
Given the abnormal growth of the jungle plants, there shouldn’t be any reason for the vast vegetation to avoid growing across the grassland—not unless there was something special hidden in the grassland that prevented the plants’ growth from encroaching its territory.
’Perhaps there’s something special under this stone mountain?’ Leon thought.
But before Leon divided a portion of his divine consciousness to investigate the earth below, he cast a glance at Cindertail.
”You’re not going to challenge Rainshine today?” Leon casually asked.
However, the moment Cindertail heard the question, he immediately shot up on all four limbs from his resting position by the spitfire.
”Thank you for the reminder, Master. I just remembered now,” Cindertail stated before shooting his gaze at Rainshine, who was lazily resting on Leon’s shoulders.
”Rainshine, I challenge you again! You have to acknowledge me as the new boss if I win!” Cindertail declared.
Rainshine slowly cast her lazy eyes at Cindertail.
”This again? Just because you reached the Paragon level, it doesn’t mean you are my opponent. You’ve already lost all seven times out of the seven times you challenged me,” Rainshine said lazily.
”If you win, you get to become the new boss. But if I win, I only get to retain my position. I’m too lazy to accept your challenge. There’s nothing for me to gain out of it.”
”This… why don’t you state your condition for winning then? I’m feeling good today. I will definitely beat you this time,” Cindertail stated confidently.
”Yeah, yeah, sure,” Rainshine slowly stood up on Leon’s shoulders before saying, “If I win, you have to offer up all your share of the roasted meat to me.”
”This…” Cindertail immediately hesitated.
”What’s wrong? Weren’t you confident?” Rainshine goaded.
”Hmph, of course!” Cindertail snorted and said, “F*ck it, let’s do it!”
Shortly after, Rainshine and Cindertail left the stone mountain to duel each other on the grassland a few miles away.
The cubs quickly occupied their spots and eyed the slow-roasting hyena meat on the spitfire.
Leon broke off some pieces of roasted meat and fed them each a piece.
Rao!
The cubs growled with joy, causing a smile to appear on Leon’s face.
Nevertheless, Leon shortly shifted his focus elsewhere as he sent his divine sense into the ground to investigate the earth beneath the stone mountain.
