Chapter 17: An Alternate World, Awakening Supernatural Powers

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

While Wang Hu was worried about food, in the capital of China…

An urgent report was rushed straight to the central.

The leader of China read the report, and his always-calm face also showed unconcealed seriousness.

He slowly uttered two words while holding the phone: “Alternate world…!”

“Yes, Leader, a few tourists accidentally discovered it near Songshan in the central region when they walked into it three days ago.

One of them called the police after he came out at 12 o’clock last night, and we had completely sealed it off at 8:30 in the morning,” a steady voice replied quickly from the other side of the phone.

“What’s the situation in that world?” the leader said slowly.

“We don’t understand yet. According to the person who reported to the police, the people inside were dressed in ancient costumes. They are of yellow skin, and the country is named Lu.”

After a few seconds of silence, the leader said: “Continue to lock it down. Don’t go in for now. If someone from another world comes out, be amicable and wait for orders.”

“Yes, sir.”

The leader picked up the phone again a few seconds after putting it down.

Soon, an emergency meeting was held, and the seven cabinet members were in a video call.

The meeting ended after a full hour.

The cabinet leader issued orders. First, prepare to explore the alternate world…

Second, search nationwide if there were other channels to other alternate worlds…

Third, speed up and expedite progress in all aspects…

Fourth, activate secret level-one preparations for battle, and be ready to go to war with the alternate world at any time…

The order was issued, and this behemoth organization—which was already busy—moved even faster.

Some countries in the world, other than China, had also discovered the passages of alternate worlds and made countermeasures.

Ten days later…

In front of the cave, Wang Hu—who had been cultivating for more than three hours—had reached his limit, but he did not choose to sleep like before.

He was consciously looking at that 0.99 number from time to time because he couldn’t sleep.

It would reach 1 at midnight tonight.

The cheat ability he had been looking forward to might be of use soon and could bring huge changes to him.

At this time, even Wang Hu— who grew shocked from time to time and whose will was well-trained—felt excited, so excited that he couldn’t sleep.

Of course, this had caused him some stress as well.

After more than ten days, the fatigue in the silly girl’s eyes had become weaker. She might be able to fully recover in no time.

Who knew what she would do by then?

He was not sure if he could resist the technique that made all ten tigers faint on that day.

He didn’t think that just a dozen days of hunting and guarding would be able to change that silly girl’s heart and make her give up the idea of killing him.

These days, when the other party looked at him, he often remembered the inexplicable gaze that often flashed—which frightened him a little.

Naturally, he couldn’t easily gamble with this one life he had.

The Map of the Universe gave him hope.

He had the chance to consider staying because he had this hope.

He would flee immediately when Big Treasure and Little Treasure woke up.

Big Treasure and Little Treasure showed no signs of waking up yet for now. That silly girl did not say anything as well.

Wang Hu was a little worried, but he knew that it was a good thing. There was no need to ask more.

In terms of his size, his shoulder height officially reached about 1.7 meters during the past ten days; his body length was about 3 meters, and his tail was about 1.6 meters.

The enhancements on his body came surprisingly fast. Generally, advancement in cultivation usually became more difficult the higher realm they attained.

A tiger growing from a shoulder height of 1.2 to 1.3 meters meant that his weight might have increased by 100 kilograms.

However, in the case where his height at the shoulders had increased from 1.67 to 1.7 meters, this 3 centimeters might have increased his weight by 130 kg.

The gap every centimeter could create would be greater down the road.

Moreover, it was not just the increase in body size. This cultivation method had brought him certain benefits in other areas as well.

It had given him more muscles, strength, and speed.

He did not know the specific strength himself; he only knew that he had grown very strong.

Thick, adult trees could be easily brought down with a slap.

His only worry was that he needed to eat about 100 kilograms of meat during the past two days just so he could complete the limit of cultivation.

Coupled with the silly girl’s needs, he now needed to capture two animals a day in most cases.

He thought about it for a while in anticipation, but he fell asleep in the hot weather.

It was already evening when he woke up.

He started hunting after he gave it some thought again.

When he entered the jungle, Di Baijun walked out of the cave, frowning and looking at that figure.

More than a dozen days had passed, and she overcame her weak period. She was preparing to hunt today so she could stop eating that bastard’s food.

She didn’t expect that that bastard went hunting as soon as she came out. She naturally couldn’t go anymore as she had to stay to protect the two little guys.

She frowned. The thought that had often surfaced these days appeared again.

This bastard’s cultivation speed was really fast!

She was a little surprised even if she had thought about it before.

Especially since he was now faster than her current cultivation speed, which naturally made her uncomfortable.

She was uncomfortable with it, but she did not place too much importance on it.

He was more intellectual than most tigers so it was normal for this bastard to have a good aptitude. It was nothing if his speed of cultivation exceeded hers for a while.

She only had the body of an ordinary tiger now. When her soul slowly changed this body, her speed of cultivation would naturally become faster and faster until she cultivated into the body of a white tiger.

Then, that bastard would be nothing at all.

That was also the fundamental reason why she didn’t care about giving him the cultivation method.

With a proud cold snort, she returned to the cave.

She started cultivating after looking at the two little guys.

She was not worried about the situation of the two little guys at all. The longer they slept, the better the situation; she would only be happy in the end.

On the other side, he was rushing for time. Finally, he grabbed another prey and returned after having eaten his fill before midnight.

Roar~!

“Time for food!”

With a soft roar, he stepped back tens of meters away.

About half a minute later, Di Baijun walked out arrogantly.

Roar~!

“From today on, you don’t need to be responsible for hunting. Look after my noble children.”

After speaking, she walked away without looking at Wang Hu.

Wang Hu blinked; that the silly girl’s situation should be better. While feeling a little worried, he couldn’t help but curl his lips.

Your noble children are also my children.

How could you have children without me?

Someday, definitely…

He swore in his heart and smiled to himself as he looked at her back and roared just like before.

Roar~!

“Don’t worry, I will protect our children.”

Suddenly, the figure of Di Baijun—who was hundreds of meters away—froze. Cold air surged, and her killing intent was awe-inspiring.

Dammit.

She turned her head, her icy gaze glaring over.

Wang Hu’s resolve weakened with a little regret.

Roar~!

“If you dare to say the words ‘our children’ again in the future, this noble one will tear you into smithereens.”

Wang Hu nodded, without hesitation, to that roar.

Di Baijun glared at him for a few more seconds before she left quickly.

Wang Hu breathed a sigh of relief. This tiger lady had an awful temper; he thought she was going to make a move just now.

Fortunately, it should be because Big Treasure and Little Treasure still needed protection so she didn’t make a move.

He secretly cursed at her and took the opportunity to run into the cave to look at the two little guys.

They were still the same, no change.

After a while, he left the cave, quietly waiting for the arrival of midnight.

Before long—under his silent stare, the number changed from 0.99 to 1.

At this moment, information appeared in his mind, and Wang Hu was overjoyed.

He could use this number on that light spot.

He still didn’t know what he would get, but it must be a great benefit.

He used it without hesitation.

Omm!

Suddenly, there seemed to be a hum in the Map of the Universe, and the dim light spot brightened—about twice as large.

Immediately—boom!

Wang Hu only felt a roar in his mind, his consciousness moved out of his body, and his whole body was fully displayed before his eyes.

Flesh, bones, fur…

He had never known his body so well.

In the blink of an eye, an invisible force gushed out from nowhere, flowing across every corner of his body and transforming some places.

This transformation was not in the essence of a body… but more like changing the composition of some structures to achieve a certain effect.

Fur, flesh, bones, etc.—including the tail… none of them escaped this transformation.

In the outside world, under the invisible force, the spiritual power swarmed into Wang Hu’s body, and a faint white light appeared on his body.

In a blink of an eye, more than an hour passed.

There was a sudden movement in the forest in the distance, and Di Baijun walked out of it, only to be immediately attracted by Wang Hu’s situation. Her eyes were astonished.

Bloodline awakening?

No, that was not it.

She was surprised upon taking a closer inspection.

Awakening supernatural powers!

This bastard actually awakened supernatural powers?

She frowned, extremely uncomfortable.

In terms of importance, awakening supernatural powers was naturally less important than awakening bloodline.

However, the awakening of supernatural powers was even rarer, and generally, only those with a strong bloodline could awaken the supernatural powers.

This bastard didn’t even have an awakened bloodline. He was just an ordinary tiger, and yet he actually awakened supernatural powers!

She knew this situation was very rare in the history of the tiger clan.

Hmph!

With a cold snort, she glared fiercely and walked into the cave arrogantly.

It was nothing much even if he awakened supernatural powers.

He would be dead when the two little guys grew up and stopped needing constant protection.

As for destroying that bastard’s supernatural power now…

That thought never crossed her mind. She was of the supreme noble tiger clan. Why would she do such a despicable and villainous act?

In another hour or so, the white light dissipated. Wang Hu slowly opened his eyes, full of joy.

A wave of pride rushed into his heart, and most of the worries and fears of the past had gone for a while. There was inexplicable happiness he couldn’t describe.

Roar~!

The surging tiger roar blasted the night, full of the might of the king of beasts.

The next moment—

Roar~!

“Shut up.”

An icy roar came from the cave, and Wang Hu’s self-confidence increased greatly. He wanted to rebut.

However, in the end, he held it back and looked at the cave dismissively.

For the sake of the children’s mother, the cultivation method you gave me, and the cultivation methods I will have in the future; I will not hold it against you now.

After a cold snort, he ran to the distance and started experimenting in excitement.
