Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1972 - 1973: An Unexpected Opponent

Perhaps out of concern that Feng Yuan and his group might unwittingly cause some new trouble, this time the teacher directly handed Feng Yuan a map showing the distribution of Spirit Beasts in the back mountain.

Although this was a bit against the rules, given Feng Yuan and his group’s situation, if they really ran into other wild Spirit Beasts, it was hard to say what might happen.

However, Feng Yuan merely handed the map to Veronia, asking her to keep an eye on things and avoid accidentally entering troublesome areas. He didn’t look at the map himself, as according to Feng Yuan, exploring slowly was the real fun.

For this, Qi Chen couldn’t really say anything to him, after all, normally speaking, the back mountain was designed to simulate potential dangers one might encounter in the wild. It’s just that here, the likelihood of encountering danger was relatively high, which is also why the teachers needed to supervise various areas.

But these dangers were entirely trivial in front of Veronia and Tamur, after all, the back mountain would never create extremely perilous high-risk areas, making it easy for Veronia and the others to solve these troubles without much effort.

Conversely, if they didn’t restrain their power, they might accidentally injure the group of Spirit Beasts.

Under a giant leaf that Ah Mu had caused to grow, Feng Yuan helplessly watched Xiao Ji walking in the rain. If it hadn’t been for Xiao Ji’s strong request, he wouldn’t have let Tamur use the rain special move. Although it was just a drizzle, the continuous rain still forced them to face the muddy and difficult mountain path.

The teacher who knew Feng Yuan and his group’s situation looked puzzled at the moving rain cloud, not understanding what Feng Yuan and his group were playing at, why they would play a rain game in such a place. Did they find the mountain path too easy to walk on?

As the group of teachers was puzzled, someone suddenly realized something, exclaiming

"Could it be he knows about that little creature’s existence? But if he really wants it, there’s no need to go through all this trouble."

"Are you talking about...that little one brought back by the principal? Probably not, right?"

"Who knows, but now we don’t even know where that little creature has gone. Perhaps it’s just a coincidence?"

Feng Yuan had no idea that Xiao Ji’s actions had caused a stir among the teachers. Qi Chen, holding the long handle of the rain-blocking leaf, looked strangely at Xiao Ji advancing in the rain and asked

"Did you do something to Xiao Ji? Why is its behavior so unusual today?"

"I don’t know, I didn’t do anything. Could it be stirred by the Deep Sea Domain, feeling competitive?"

Glancing at Xiao Ji, who was trying hard to endure, Feng Yuan uncertainly replied. He couldn’t quite understand what was going on with Xiao Ji, but based on past occurrences, it probably had something to do with the Deep Sea Domain, as the domain influence did affect Xiao Ji’s combat power somewhat.

Although Xiao Ji likes to use fire attribute attacks, it itself does not carry the fire attribute. That means the Deep Sea Domain basically has no suppressive effect on it.

Unlike fire attribute Spirit Beasts whose strength would be directly suppressed in the Deep Sea Domain, because even if there’s no attribute suppression, the power of the fire attribute would naturally be weakened as a force that repels water.

As for suffocation?

This might be a problem for humans, but for Spirit Beasts, almost none are truly landlocked swimmers. At the very least, they have underwater breathing special moves they can use.

Xiao Ji glanced at Feng Yuan, chirping once and nodding before looking forward and fluttering its wings, the Netherworld Wind blew forward, scooping up countless fallen leaves.

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan didn’t try to persuade Xiao Ji; in its current situation, it shouldn’t encounter any problems. The rain special move range was suppressed by Tamur, and wouldn’t bring trouble to other classmates.

However, Feng Yuan didn’t know the rain special move would not necessarily displeasure the Spirit Beasts in the forest. Some might even feel delighted, but there are some Spirit Beasts that don’t like rain.

Nevertheless, these Spirit Beasts usually do not appear in the forest, so Feng Yuan overlooked the possibility, completely forgetting how unique the back mountain Spirit Beast community was, even the Raging Wave Crocodile that should inhabit the deep sea appeared here. It’s not strange for Spirit Beasts that don’t like rain to appear here as well.

"Uh, maybe we should stop for a while? If it keeps raining, it won’t be easy for us to find a place to rest."

Looking at the rain-soaked lawn, Feng Yuan said a bit headache, this small lawn located halfway up the mountain seemed like a perfect resting spot, just due to the rain, that lush grass was covered with water droplets, and Feng Yuan noticed quite a few puddles hidden within the grass.

If a sunny special move were used to dry it, this place would be a good place to rest, now though...

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Xiao Ji chirped once and wandered alone into the nearby woods, watching as the rain cloud followed Xiao Ji and gradually moved out of the lawn’s range. Feng Yuan said a bit awkwardly

"Could it be angry?"

"Probably not, but it’s definitely a bit anxious."

Veronia said, gently waving her hand, activating the sunny special move, and a special force descended from the already clear sky, causing the water accumulated on the lawn to evaporate, rising into white mist and being blown away by the wind.

Just as Veronia was about to have Ah Mu make some mushroom stools, suddenly a burst of flames came from the woods, Xiao Ji’s angry chirps left everyone stunned.

Feng Yuan hurriedly rushed to Xiao Ji’s direction, and at this time Xiao Ji had already taken flight, glaring at the fiery red Big Dog, even in the rain, Xiao Ji who already adapted to the rain wasn’t as affected.

Instead, that fiery red Big Dog was clearly a fire attribute Spirit Beast, heavily suppressed in the rain.

That Big Dog’s light yellow fluffy fur was soaked by the rain, sticking to its body. But even so, its size was notably larger than Yang Hongzhi’s Xiao Hei.

Feng Yuan was taken aback, watching that fiery red Big Dog, not quite understanding how such a Spirit Beast appeared in the woods?

Xiao Ji chirped at Feng Yuan, flapping its wings to activate a special move, intending to show that nosy Big Dog who attacked it a lesson. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Flame brazenly blasted towards Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan didn’t command Xiao Ji to counterattack, suspecting that this Fluffy Fire Wolfhound was drawn by Xiao Ji, or maybe it’s annoyed by Xiao Ji’s rain special move.

Fierce Flame forced through the rain’s suppression, burning towards Xiao Ji, however, Xiao Ji’s excellent level combat potential boasted impressive ability, furthermore, the flame special move was weakened due to the rain.

Therefore, confronting that flame, Xiao Ji unhesitantly unleashed a series of Netherfire Orbs, even deploying Underworld Domain, where the air phantoms of Nether Soil boosted the power of Netherfire Orb and also augmented the subsequent Netherworld Wind.

This was what the Underworld Domain bestowed — changes to the special move, but instead of simply altering the move’s form, this change enabled the Netherworld Wind to chain with the previous Death Series or Ghost Series move.

Though a fire attribute Spirit Beast, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound lacked flame resistance against the Netherfire Orb or Netherworld Wind’s sparks.

Netherfire itself isn’t typical flame, it targets the soul with its effect, yet even after being battered into critical health by Xiao Ji’s combo, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound fiercely glared at Xiao Ji, struggling to unleash the blazing Earth ultimate move.

A pillar of fire shot towards Xiao Ji and the steadily raining cloud, but even Xiao Ji had to use winged protection against the fire pillar, yet it failed to breach the rain cloud.

After all, it’s an ultimate move of Tamur. Without using specific weather altering moves, dispelling it is tough for Good Level Spirit Beasts.

Even if the Divine Beasts used only ordinary weather moves, reclaiming the weather from them requires at least Legendary Level strength. Unfortunately, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound doesn’t know this.

Blazing Earth itself is a desperate final move, once executed, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound fell exhausted, unable to move under the pouring rain. Gazing at the pitiful Fire Wolf, Feng Yuan helplessly remarked

"Tamur, please switch to sunny, Xiao Ji really..."

If Xiao Ji merely disliked water for psychological reasons, it’s different for the Fire Wolf. Because rain soaks their fluffy fur, dampening their power, indeed they dislike rain, but if Feng Yuan recalls correctly, the primary habitat of the Fire Wolf lineage seems to be in the desert, why’d such a Fire Wolf suddenly appear here?
