The next day,
Outer Sect, Sky Heavens sect,
Liu Feng, Liu Man, and Li Tian stood in front of the one and only dragon gate that towered in front of them.
According to all that he heard, the dragons that he saw on this gate were real ones. They gave it the power that they had, the power to transform.
Just looking at it, he remembered the time when he thought that the dragon gate was just metaphorical, and that he could just transform like the kun peng did.
And while it was probably metaphorical as well, this was also something that could exist. And this was one of the biggest reasons that the Sky Heavens sect was the second strongest sect, rising all the way from dead last.
Liu Feng quivered with excitement as he looked at Li Tian.
"Well, what are you waiting for? Just pass through." Li Tian said.
"What? There is no procedure to be followed? Some mantra, or some process to be done?" Liu Feng asked.
"Nope. You just need to pass through and hope that your body will be changed for the better." Li Tian shook his head.
Liu Man seemed to know this, and he jumped past Liu Feng to trot onto the dragon gate. He jumped through the sides, and then suddenly disappeared.
"Where did he go?" Liu Feng looked around, but Liu Man was nowhere to be seen. For a second, he was terrified about the possibility that he was gone forever.
"He is a constellation beast. He should know about the dragon gate. You are overacting too much." Liu Feng calmed himself and looked at the dragon gate intently.
But nothing seemed to be coming out.
"Master? Something seems to be wrong. How long does this transformation take?" Liu Feng asked.
"I don't know. How would I know? It depends on the transformation that is occurring. Why would I know what the transformation taking place is?" Li Tian just shrugged.
"Goddamn this." Liu Feng sat on the floor, cross legged. He had a feeling that it was going to take a while for this to be over. And he did not want to pass through the dragon gate while Liu Man was in, afraid that he might mess things up for both of them.
Minutes passed, and then an hour. Still, there was no sign of where Liu Man was.
Although Li Tian was perfectly calm, Liu Feng was at his wits' end. His companion was gone for a whole hour to some mysterious place that he had no idea about.
"Hmmm. This is interesting. It has been an hour already. I have never seen a transformation take this long." Li Tian finally said something, and even that made Liu Feng all the more stressed.
Roar!
And just in cue, a terrifying roar that froze his blood brought life back to Liu Feng's face. He knew that this was Liu Man.
Just the intensity of the roar told him that this was a beast that could tear him apart in seconds.
He looked beyond the dragon gate to see a white tiger. This was no longer a cub. It was a full grown white tiger. It glared at Liu Feng, and Liu Feng could recognize Liu Man's face even though he was all grown up now.
Poof!
The tiger disappeared in white smoke and appeared next to Liu Feng with lightning speed.
"Now this, both of you should see. It can help you guys a little." Liu Man said, back in the previous form that he sported before entering the dragon gate.
Then, Liu Man looked up at the sky.
It seemed like he was looking at the heavens, waiting for something. Just feeling the Qi that was emanating from Liu Man, Liu Feng knew immediately that Liu Man was at the Xiantian level.
But it only made sense that the heavens had to give a tribulation to face. And yet, the clouds above weren't darkening. If anything, they were only glowing brighter.
A white halo appeared in the sky, with the clouds around it becoming golden in color.
This white light started slowly emanating downward and the target was Liu Man.
Standing in the center of this clear blessing from the heavens, he enjoyed its warmth. Liu Feng could visibly see the growth of the tiny cub that was Liu Man.
Slowly, step by step, he started growing larger and larger, until he reached the size of the white tiger that Liu Feng had seen before through the dragon gate.
"This is just unfair. I don't care what Liu Man says about it. To think that the heavens would welcome him into the Xiantian realm, while it attacks me for daring to enter it." Liu Feng shook his head.
Then, the clouds parted, and the light disappeared. Liu Man was no longer a cub. He was a tiger, one that was stronger than Liu Feng, that much was sure.
Glancing at Liu Feng, he growled.
"I think that this form is no longer appropriate?" he said, and he started transforming again.
In the blink of an eye, in front of Liu Feng, another man stood. There was no white tiger anymore. This young man was Liu Man.
He looked about sixteen years old, and had chiseling features. Surely, women would go crazy looking at this perfect face.
"So you can transform into human form now." Liu Feng asked.
"Indeed, I can. And I think that I will keep this form for now, because having the form of a beast cub is not the most convenient. I am having to clutch your sleeve all the time. I would rather just stand next to you as a human." Liu Man smiled.
"Alright then. One of you is done. Time for the next one. I don't have all day. You can enter, Liu Feng." Li Tian said, looking at Liu Feng.
