You're a Good Beast, But I Refuse!
As he stepped into the luminous mist, the Light Element became even denser.
It made Long Fan feel indescribably comfortable.
After passing through the mist, the scenery ahead became clear as well.
He raised his head and looked into the sky.
What he saw was a stretch of crystal-clear blue.
He arrived at the foot of a mountain.
The forest was filled with countless varieties of plants, with barely any paths to be seen.
He drew his greatsword with his right hand while gripping the black token in his left, ready to check it at any moment.
The lowest-ranked magical beasts within the Sacred Mountain were Level 2, represented by red.
From there, the colors went yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, white, and silver. Level 9 was the pinnacle.
When he encountered magical beasts of different levels, the token would display different colors.
If it turned gold, that meant he had encountered an aggressive magical beast.
As long as it did not show friendliness immediately, he needed to leave as quickly as possible.
If a magical beast showed affection toward him, he could try communicating with it mentally.
The time limit was thirty days. Once it expired, the token would turn reddish-gold and teleport him out.
Within this month, Long Fan needed to find a beast companion to his liking.
Just then.
With a whoosh!
A yellow figure darted past him.
It was a monkey-type magical beast called a Sky-Soaring Monkey.
It landed on a branch not far away, bared its teeth at Long Fan, then turned and ran off.
The token in Long Fan's hand flashed with yellow light.
It showed that the Sky-Soaring Monkey from before was Level 3.
After being baptized by the light magic array here, the magical beasts really had become much friendlier—though they were also a little mischievous.
What a magical place.
Soon.
Another Level 3 magical beast entered Long Fan's field of vision.
It was a White-Haired Ruins Kun.
However, it did not live in water. Instead, it floated through the low air using the air in its belly.
It belonged to the Flying Kun type of magical beast.
Still, these were merely weak magical beasts on the outskirts.
Long Fan had no interest in them at all.
Without wasting time, Long Fan entered the forest.
As he moved forward, he observed everything around him.
He needed to climb to the mountaintop so he could determine the direction and head deeper into the Sacred Mountain.
The closer he got to the center, the stronger the magical beasts he would encounter.
The vegetation in the forest was rather dense.
Long Fan simply used his greatsword to carve a path.
His climbing speed was not particularly fast.
Along the way, he encountered a peak Level 7 Green Armor Earth Dragon that approached him in friendship.
Although it had great potential for growth, it could not fly, so what the hell was the point?
Besides, Long Fan did not want to live by the saying, "If you want life to be good, you've got to have a little green on your head."
He rejected it outright.
Long Fan continued on his way.
Fortunately, with the abundant energy around him, he planned to tinker with a self-created skill native to this plane: Earth Explosion Heavenly Star.
After all, whether it was Naruto's chakra or spiritual power, their essence could be classified as a type of energy.
With powerful mental control and creative thinking.
Replicating Earth Explosion Heavenly Star was not impossible.
This world was full of creation.
They were like the self-created ultimate killing moves of several great Divine Seal figures.
There was also Long Xiaogua, who had turned the knight skill Energy Accumulation Reversal into a method for cultivating Liquid Spiritual Power.
So one had to think outside the box.
As Mr. Lu Xun had put it well, as long as your mind did not slip, there would always be more solutions than difficulties.
In any case, the formation was rich in Light Elements. As long as he did not deliberately meditate and cultivate, it would not disrupt the balance.
Long Fan began experimenting bit by bit.
At half-step Rank Five, he could already project his spiritual power outward.
That made recreating Earth Explosion Heavenly Star much easier.
Buzz!
An invisible repulsive force immediately spread outward.
It was rather weak at first.
But with Deep Blue's extraordinary talent, Long Fan gradually grasped the essence of it as he moved forward.
As time passed, he tried again and again.
The Earth Explosion Heavenly Star he released grew increasingly powerful.
"Almighty Push!"
As he activated the skill, Long Fan always felt it was less satisfying if he did not shout something.
At the same time, he slowly raised both hands, palms facing the sky.
In an instant, an incomparably powerful repulsive force emerged around him.
Centered on Long Fan, who was continuously releasing spiritual power, it radiated in all directions.

Rumble—!
The ground around his feet began to tremble.
The turf covering the ground was directly ripped away and sent flying.
Even the rooted bushes and shrubs were torn from the earth.
Before long, the surrounding area revealed bare, freshly turned soil.
The once-dense woodland looked as though it had been plowed countless times.
A vast open space was instantly cleared out.
Long Fan nodded in satisfaction.
He slightly reduced the range of the Earth Explosion Heavenly Star to lower its spiritual power consumption.
Then he accelerated toward the mountaintop.
Once he reached the summit, his view suddenly opened up.
Rolling mountain ranges stretched before him.
And beyond them lay a green ocean.
Long Fan identified the approximate direction of the Sacred Mountain's center and was about to continue onward.
Suddenly, fierce winds swept through the sky.
A massive figure descended from above.
Long Fan flicked his wrist and gripped his heavy sword tightly.
Remaining vigilant at all times was a required lesson for every knight.
The enormous figure slowly landed several dozen zhang away.
It was impressively a majestic flying magical beast, somewhat resembling a giant eagle.
It was roughly six meters long and entirely pale gold.
It had a dragon's head and a bird's body, with long, slender seven-colored feathers trailing behind its head and tail.
Its head was raised proudly, its bearing magnificent.
An eighth-level magical beast—the Seven-Colored Dragon Hawk. It was a Light Attribute flying magical beast that began at seven-color Rank Seven.
For knights, mounts with the Light Attribute were the most precious, capable of greatly increasing their combat power.
Long Fan recognized the magical beast's origins at a glance.
Fortunately, the token in his hand had not flashed with the golden light that warned of danger.
This meant that the Dragon Hawk before him, which had even evolved, bore no hostility.
Within Knight Sacred Mountain, the longer a magical beast lived, the more spiritually aware it became.
High-level magical beasts possessed immense intelligence, sometimes no less than that of humans.
The higher the rank of the magical beast, the harder it was to earn its recognition.
Attempting communication was the first step.
Yet this Seven-Colored Dragon Hawk was the first to make its stance known.
Its pair of brown eyes gleamed brightly.
Especially when they met Long Fan's clear, pale-golden gaze, it could not help but freeze slightly.
A dense golden radiance surged from the seven-colored plumes atop its head.
It spread into a curtain of golden light that enveloped Long Fan.
"Chirp gurgle."
The other party was showing goodwill.
Long Fan reached out and stroked its handsome feathers.
"Brother Feather, don't tell me you want to become my contracted mount?"
"Gurgle~"
The Seven-Colored Dragon Hawk let out a joyful cry.
Lowering its head, it rubbed its fluffy head against Long Fan's body.
Long Fan pondered for a moment.
Although Brother Feather might continue evolving into a Nine-Colored Dragon Hawk, he still intended to refuse.
After all, it was still somewhat inferior to the Starry Unicorn.
Long Fan patted Brother Feather's head.
"You're a good beast, but my heart already belongs elsewhere."
Although it had been rejected, the Dragon Hawk still affectionately rubbed against Long Fan's palm.
It seemed to enjoy being close to Long Fan.
Long Fan was also happy to stroke this rather gentle Brother Feather.
"By the way, big brother, can you take me to the places near the center of the Sacred Mountain where Starry Unicorns often appear?"
As an old local of this place, the Seven-Colored Dragon Hawk did not refuse.
Instead, it readily crouched down and revealed its flat back.
Long Fan did not stand on ceremony and swung himself onto the hawk.
The Dragon Hawk spread its wings and took flight.
Like a sharp sword, it shot toward the central region of the Sacred Mountain.
Long Fan gave its seven-colored feathers a stroke and sighed inwardly.
You really are a good beast. It's just a pity we aren't suited for each other.
Otherwise, I could've gone Deep Blue for a bit.
