ch 39

not long after that, sun jian arrives at the border of star luo forest. this forest is magnificent but also very scary and dangerous because this forest has a terrifying spirit beast that can kill title douluo like nothing.

"First let's start the journey from here, lets explore this forest first then go to another place," said him. then he continues his journey. along the way, he also encounters a lot of spirit beast, but most of it he has seen it before.

"from the first layer of this forest, I know right now that no matter what spirit forest in this continent the spirit who lives there is almost the same," said him.

"if that so, then it seems like I need to go deeper at least until the middle layer of this forest. with my current strength I think is enough" then he walks away.

not long after continue to walk, he heard a noise not far from his place. " what a that, so much noise. this kind of noise impossible for spirit beast under 1000th years old can produce. hah no matter what let's see first, byakugan!" then he active his byakugan to see what happened in front.

what he sees in front of him is the battle between the Shaolin eagle and vajra bear, the age of this spirit beast is at least 4000th to 5000th years old. no wonder they can cause this level of noise.

judging from what he sees, the vajra bear is in the upper hand while the Shaolin eagle is the miserable one. "hmm, the teacher has said that the Shaolin eagle is the easiest to tame than another spirit beast. it's said that as you have goodwill toward them especially if you save their life, they will show you their gratitude to you. and to tame them is even more simple."

"then, it settled I will tame this eagle to be my journey partner". after he makes up his mind, he is ready to save this Shaolin eagle from the rampage of the bear.

when he quiet closed from them, he directly active his attack." 1st spirit ability: 8th trigram empty palm!" then a fast shock wave come out from his hand move toward the vajra bear.

vajra bear also senses danger is approaching him, so he stops rampaging the Shaolin eagle and evade. not long after he evade the shock wave that hit the tree. and the tree who are being hit is destroyed but the shock wave still not end until it hit the 5 tree.

vajra bear then turn into anger by the sudden attack and glance toward him. "hmph, this is not the end. self-made ability: speed boost!" suddenly he arrive in front of vajra bear.

"die! 3rd spirit ability: 8th trigram 128th punch!" this deadly punch of sun jian enough to kill a spirit ancestor on the spot let alone this vajra bear whose age only 5000th to 6000th, even the vajra bear is known for their absolute defense but the difference of strength is there.

after being hit bit the 128th punch, the vajra bear soon dead on the spot become a lifeless corpse. "then, (he turn his glance toward the Shaolin eagle) you are safe." he said with a smile.

the Shaolin eagle also feel no malice from sun jian so he node toward him expressing his thank. "no need, I will cure you first then we continue to talk." said him.

after that, he and the Shaolin eagle stay in quite an open field until night and cooked the vajra bear before for them to eat.

.....

soon morning come, sun jian also ready to start his journey. but before that he need to deal with the Shaolin eagle first. "hey big bird, (his nickname toward the eagle) I want to start my journey. your injury also almost heal, so I want to ask. do you want to travel with me?" asked him with a smile.

Shaolin eagle also look at him then node to him roar happily. "hahaha then it's settled since you are my partner you must have a name, hmm how about ziyou?"

the Shaolin eagle titled his head puzzled."your name mean is freedom, just like every bird in the sky they can fly as much they want in the sky without any worry. I also want you just like them although I know that before you also like them, you are not free enough so I hope in the future you will become a spirit beast that can arrogantly fly anywhere as you please without any worry". said him with awe-inspiring.

the Shaolin eagle doesn't know much about what he said before, but at least he know that his master give him a name for himself and he also like the name very much despite he doesn't know the meaning of his name.

after that, the two continue their journey, but this time sun jian isn't walking instead he fly with ziyou mostly he is riding ziyou on his back(he could fly tough, but he think that it's cooler if he fly by riding a mount).
