Isaac was also taken aback.
Hallie had mentioned that only demon beasts that reached the eighth rank or higher could transform into human form and fly in the air.
The giant white tiger beneath them moved through the air as if it were walking on the ground. It seemed like it was taking a stroll. But in reality, it was fast. It only took two hours to fly across a mountain.
It was unclear why the eighth-ranked giant tiger beast chose to serve as Viola’s mount rather than transform into a human. But it at least indicated that Viola was above the eighth rank in terms of power. She might even be in the ninth rank.
Riding on the back of the formidable eighth-rank demon beast, the flying beasts in Otto Mountain didn’t dare to come out and attack them. Isaac and Hallie could finally relax and feel at case.
After flying over one mountain peak and then two more, they would leave Otto Mountain’s core area.
Just as they were flying over the second mountain peak, Isaac noticed a few figures engaged in a fight right above the treetops below.
“Sir, can you slow down a bit?” He patted the giant tiger’s neck.
The giant tiger raised its head for a glance. Then, it slowed down and also looked downward.
Several men dressed in elegant long robes were surrounding and attacking a man who was entirely wrapped in a black robe.
Those four men weren’t strangers, they were the same ones Isaac and Hallie had met earlier when they entered the core area. That group had demanded them to carry the luggage.
“What reckless humans! How dare they try to kill the Black-Robed Bear!” Suddenly, the giant tiger emitted a deep male voice.
Isaac and Hallie were startled but quickly reacted. This giant white tiger was an eighth-ranked demon beast who could take human form. It was only natural that favonovel.com could speak.
Isaac hadn’t had a chance to speak when a roar erupted from below.
The man, completely enshrouded in a black robe, let out a thunderous roar to the sky. A surge of dark energy burst forth from him, creating a vast black area about 300 feet long that enveloped the treetops below.
The four men who had surrounded favonovel.com quickly dispersed.
The black mist quickly contracted. A massive black bear, about 30 feet long and 25 feet tall, appeared.
The black bear’s fur was fiery red and stood up like steel needles. Even from a mile up in the air, Isaac and Hallie could sense the beast’s frightening aura.
“It has revealed its true form. Nothing interesting. They’ll be dead,” the giant white tiger said.
In the next moment, the enormous black bear let out a thunderous roar and swiftly turned its body, shooting dozens of its steel-like, fiery red hairs like sharp needles.
Two men in brocade robes nearby couldn’t dodge in time and were pierced through their bodies on the spot. They were lifted and flung dozens of feet away, smashing into the forest.
Isaac could see that one of the people who had fallen, impaled through the abdomen, was Laith, who had previously talked to him.
The bear killed two people with one swift move.
The remaining old man with gray hair appeared shocked. He turned and shouted down toward the base of the tree, “Run, master! I’ll block it!”
The old man unleashed a surge of dark spiritual energy.
With a thrust of his palms, his powerful dark energy transformed into a gigantic tiger that stood over 160 feet tall behind him.
“Divine Phase, huh? It’s too bad that he’s only in the early stage.” The giant white tiger began to stride forward and take off into the air.
“Sir, please wait a moment,” Isaac said with a frown.
A massive black bear in the treetops saw a tiger-shaped spiritual energy that was several times larger than itself and lunged toward it.
With a thunderous roar, it surged its black aura and leaped forward, charging at the tiger-shaped spiritual energy.
In the next moment, the black bear dispersed the massive black tiger-shaped spiritual energy.
The old man attempted to flee, but the black bear accelerated and chased after him.
