The Chimera emerged from the pet belt, seeming extremely excited.

The insides of a pet belt were obviously quite restraining for it.

“RAAARGHH!” The Chimera roared loudly, and started killing everything it could get its sights on.

The Devil’s Abyss was known to be inhabited by extremely strong demons, but fortunately, Bi Fan had landed in a zone where the demons weren’t very strong, so naturally, they didn’t really stand much of a chance against the Chimera.

Bi Fan had already cleared out most of the battlefield, and now with the Chimera taking over, he could restore his inner energy and maybe, some peace of mind as well.

The Abyss was a terrifying place, which was almost over populated with demonic beasts. The population density of the Devil’s Race was so high in the Abyss that even the strongest of martial artists would tend to exhaust their energy, and would eventually need to rest, from time to time, which is why no one entered this Abyss alone.

Bi Fan, in a frenzy of increasing his strength as quickly as possible, had entered the Devil’s Abyss alone, and was beginning to regret the decision a bit now.

Of course, he had taken into account his own formidable strength, and the fact that the Chimera would be able to assist him when needed.

But, things weren’t exactly going as planned. Bi Fan’s formidable physical strength depleted his inner energy at a very quick rate, which meant that he would need to restore it very often.

Bi Fan needed to find a way to restore his inner energy while engaged in fight, and if he managed to figure out a way to do so, then he could possibly survive the Abyss, even without the Chimera’s help.

‘Fire and Ice Dragon’ burst couldn’t be employed when engaged in combat, and he couldn’t use the ‘free’ burst technique either as he simply wasn’t strong enough to practice the method.

The ‘Free’ burst technique could be used at the whims of the practitioner; anytime, anywhere, which is why Bi Fan had been very attentive while studying the technique.

This method was a very unique one, and unlike most methods that required a quiet and peaceful environment for practice, the ‘free’ burst method could be used under, almost, any kind of circumstances.

“It’s important that I break into the ‘spiritual intelligence’ layer soon, ah!” Bi Fan thought to himself.

The Chimera was getting more and more ferocious by the minute, and had already slaughtered every beast in sight.

Soon, Bi Fan managed to recover almost his entire inner energy, and so he exchanged roles with the Chimera and took over, returning the Chimera to the safety of the pet belt, so he could recover his strength and rest a while.

Bi Fan even went as far as providing the Chimera with a restoration Dan pellet to help him speed his recovery.

As time would progress, the battles would only get more and more intense, so it was necessary for the two of them to be at their maximum capacity, for the sake of insurance.

The Devil’s race that Bi Fan had encounter so far, hadn’t posed any serious problems. But for the time being, Bi Fan decided that it was best to refrain from venturing any deeper, as he didn’t have any plans in place.

As soon as Bi Fan arrived in the Abyss, he realized the situation on ground was very different from what he had expected.

Bi Fan and the Chimera had taken turns in slaughtering the Devil’s Race that had been wandering in the vicinity, in a roster of duty, and the area had been substantially cleared out.

During this entire time, the strongest beast that Bi Fan had come across, was only as strong as the ‘brave’ layer, which at Bi Fan’s present level, had been a piece of cake.

“Let’s continue forward and go a little deeper…..” Bi Fan and the Chimera had both fully restored their inner energies, so Bi Fan decided that they should march a little deeper into the Abyss.

“RRRRRRRGGHHH!” Suddenly, a tremendous bellow of rage shook the atmosphere.

“Amazing momentum!” Bi Fan was astounded for a moment.

Moments later, a black cloud, made of gas, emerged out of nowhere and started to rage towards Bi Fan and the Chimera. Constantly changing its shape; dark and gloomy in appearance; it was awfully scary.

Suddenly, the dark gas cloud took the shape of a gigantic mouth, and enclosed Bi Fan and the Chimera in its range, and the two of them felt as if they had been swallowed whole.

Sword out!

‘Rainy-fly Sword!’

Bi Fan quickly cast a trick to counter this strange attack.

As Bi Fan started swinging his sword, the cloud began to flutter irregularly, and after altering its shape a few more times, it dissolved and fell back.

The Chimera, on the other hand, looked rather miserable and simply stared at this black gas cloud, wearing a terrified look on its face.

“He He!” A hideous laughter echoed from within the retreating gas cloud.

Bi Fan’s complexion slightly changed, as he began to carefully observe the dark gas cloud. He was paying special attention to even the minutest of energy changes, as he believed that it would be the key to solving this problem, as that’s where the core of the cloud must be; the demon that resided within.

This demon was very cleaver, and had cast out a black gas cloud to conceal his body, prohibiting Bi Fan from pin-pointing its location.

On top of that, this demon was also very strong, and must be in the ‘enormous strength’ layer.

The black gas cloud pounced again, and Bi Fan quickly cast out the ‘fufeng double-edged sword’ technique, in order to protect both, himself and the Chimera.

Simultaneously, Bi Fan also cast out the ‘immortal finger’; and Bi Fan started employing both the techniques simultaneously, and indiscriminately, to attack this hidden enemy.

“Awoooo!” Bi Fan had cast out several attacks, and it seemed as if one of them had struck the target, as a wretched scream erupted from within that cloud of darkness.

The gas cloud fluttered for a moment and then expanded rapidly, completely enveloping Bi Fan and the Chimera inside it; no matter how aggressively Bi Fan tried to stop it.

Bi Fan hadn’t hit the panic button yet as he had already struck the target once, which meant that demon was concealed somewhere inside this gas cloud itself. Now all Bi Fan had to do was locate its exact position.

However, now Bi Fan wasn’t attacking as recklessly as before, and knew that it was best to wait for the opportune moment.

But still, he continued to swing his sword left and right; not to attack his concealed enemy, but to defend himself against any surprise attacks.

He kept attacking the gas cloud with his sword, but the demon managed to block off his attacks, as it continued to draw support for the gas cloud to conceal its location.

Suddenly, the demon launched an attack, fire. This fire was corrosive in nature, and very powerful; Bi Fan needed to tread extremely carefully now.

Suddenly, Bi Fan was struck by the fire, still enclosed in the gas cloud, and he fell to the ground; it appeared that he had sustained a serious injury.

“He He!” A hideous laughter echoed from through the covers of the gas cloud, as the demon charged for Bi Fan.

The Chimera was very worried and seemed willing to risk his own life to protect Bi Fan.

Bi Fan quickly glanced over at the Chimera, indicating that that he was only feigning to be hurt, with the hope that this trick would lure out the demon, and so the Chimera shouldn’t rush recklessly into his support.

The demon took the bait and lashed towards Bi Fan.

‘Rainy-fly sword!’

The trick worked like a charm, and Bi Fan plugged his sword into the enemy that was concealed in the darkness.

“Awoo…..” The screams died out soon, indicating that the demon was dead.

Once the demon was dead, the dark gas cloud dissipated quite quickly.

The true colors of the demon, that had remained hidden in the darkness so far, were finally exposed. To their surprise, this demon closely resembled Bi Fan’s Chimera, and seemed to be a Devil’s Race equivalent of Bi Fan’s companion.

However, this demonic Chimera was much bigger in size, and looked quite majestic owing to the black fur that covered its body from head to toe.

The Chimera pounced in the direction of the dead demon, and quickly started eating its flesh.

The flesh of this dead, Devil’s Race creature, wasn’t just any other ordinary meat; it contained energy within; and Bi Fan’s Chimera started to advance as it quickly gobbled up the dead demon’s meat.

Bi Fan didn’t squander any time in observing the proceedings, and quickly started to meditate in order to restore his inner energy, as he had consumed an awful lot of it in this recent episode.

“RGHHHHH!!!” Suddenly, the Chimera started roaring in agony, and its face exposed the color of pain.

Bi Fan ceased his practice, and opened his eyes, only to discover that his companion was painfully rolling on floor, covered in a black fire.

“What’s the matter?” Bi Fan was clueless about these circumstances, and just stood there, helplessly, too afraid to take any action.

The fire, which was burning the Chimera’s body, seemed to getting more and more prosperous with every passing second. Even though it seemed to be inflicting quite a lot of pain, it didn’t really appear to be hindering the Chimera’s growth, as its strength continued to advance.

“Is it possible that the Chimera could be evolving right now?” Bi Fan speculated.

In fact, the demonic Chimera that he had just slayed, and his Chimera had made a meal out of, contained a nucleus, which could turn out to be a good omen when it came to the question of his Chimera’s evolution.

Bi Fan wasn’t familiar with these turn of events, and had no idea what would happen if he tried to help the Chimera by providing him with the nucleus.

A nucleus is an extremely rare and precious article, but it was worth more if it could evolve the Chimera.

The Chimera was still rolling on floor, screaming in pain, unceasingly, and had even started to bleed now. Bi Fan couldn’t help as he continued to circle the Chimera frantically, trying to find a way to help his companion.

Bi Fan had almost tried to help several times, but didn’t go through with it.

The Chimera was suffering under some kind of special circumstances, of which Bi Fan had no knowledge whatsoever, and he simply didn’t want his actions to make the situation even more detrimental for his companion.

“Chimera, hang in there, don’t give up!” Bi Fan was secretly praying that the Chimera would emerge out of this situation unscathed.

Bi Fan had managed to rein in this Chimera after a lot of trouble, and there was an awful lot that this Chimera could develop into. So, naturally, Bi Fan didn’t want it to die so prematurely.
