Armipotent

Controlling the Elemental Power proved to be much harder than he thought even with the skill. Since Rosalie the Flame Queen was specialized in fire, she taught how she used her power. It took some time for him to pick it up. It was not just a matter of imagination. Controlling the power for a precise matter like creating a lane by shaping the ground was much harder than building a big wall like he did when he fought the Daian Kingdom.

Tang Shaoyang placed his hand on the wall, creating a path that fit his size. He was following the Infant Dark Predator who kept sniffing forward, 'Is it a dog or a cat?' He did not know that a cat had a sharp smell.

After half an hour following the kitten, they ended up in an underground space. The underground space was bigger than a soccer field, around three to four times bigger. He came over the edge and found countless giant rats. Yes, the underground space was the nest of the Dark Tremors. The squeak echoed in the underground space.

Tang Shaoyang noticed that the little kitten was about to jump into the Dark Tremor's crowd, but he caught it. It wanted to meow at him, but he immediately closed its jaw. He did not want to startle the Dark Tremor, he wanted to look for the leader.

This was a nest, there must be a leader of the Dark Tremor. He wanted to look for the leader, with a hope to communicate with the leader of this Dark Tremor, "Is it possible to tame the Dark Tremor?" He was asking Rosalie in a whisper. Since the Dark Tremor lived by its instinct, he wondered if this thing could be tamed.

—I don't know. No one has tried to tame this thing before. Who wanted to have a Dark Tremor pet?

Rosalie found the question was ridiculous. To tame an unintelligent beast was much harder, and the Dark Tremor was weak individually. No sane person would waste their time tame such a creature.

Tang Shaoyang observed the Dark Tremors below him, scanning the whole space. However, there was no particular Dark Tremor that was different from the others. All looked the same in his eyes, the leader usually looked different than the others. But he could not find the different Dark Tremor.

"If I can't find the leader, then I will force the leader out." Tang Shaoyang released the little kitten who had been struggling from his hand, "Go head! You can go if you want." The little kitten looked at him suspiciously before it turned around.

The Infant Dark Predator was standing at the edge, observing the prey from the top. Just as the little kitten was about to jump, there was a voice ringing in his head. Not only him, it seemed that the little kitten also heard the voice.

—Wait! Please don't harm my child!

The Infant Dark Predator leaped backward and looked toward Tang Shaoyang. It thought it was Tang Shaoyang but soon it realized the voice was different. The little kitten looked around, trying to find where the voice came from. The same for Tang Shaoyang, he looked around as well. The voice was very clear and Rosalie was the only spirit in his spiritual space right now.

"I am behind you!" The voice rang from their back. Tang Shaoyang turned around as he was surprised that he could not detect any presence from the back. The Infant Dark Predator also turned around and snarled at the creature behind. It was a beastmen, around fifty centimeters tall.

Yes, there was a rat beastmen behind them, standing with its two feet, and looking at Tang Shaoyang and the Infant Dark Predator. The long whisker and the red eyes scanned the little kitten, "No wonder my child is running away, there's an Infant Dark Predator." The rat beastmen muttered before it looked toward Tang Shaoyang.

Tang Shaoyang was not idle, he cast [Basic Detection] on the rat beastmen. From the surface, this rat beastment was not that dangerous. But it was better to be safe than sorry.

Tang Shaoyang was shocked to see the stats of this rat. He encountered an Epic Beastmen for the first time, 'But wait, I thought the outer region is filled with weak monsters, then what about this one?'

—I also don't know. I have been away from this continent for years. Many changes could happen during that time.

"Please don't harm my children, Sir." Aki bowed his head toward Tang Shaoyang. From the voice, it was a male's voice and quite young as well. It seemed the rat beastmen could tell that Tang Shaoyang was stronger than him.

Meanwhile, the little kitten was walking toward Tang Shaoyang, hiding behind his feet as it kept peeking at Aki. The little guy was aware that it could not defeat Aki hence it hid behind Tang Shaoyang.

"They attacked me first though," Tang Shaoyang shrugged, "Killing them also gives me more benefits than sparing their lives as well. Why should I listen to you?" He was not wrong. He could use the corpses for summoning or sacrifice for Feera's advancement to Grade S Spirit.

"Then what can I do to change your mind?" Aki responded calmly, causing Tang Shaoyang to be alerted, 'Why did this Epic Beastmen surrender easily? Is he trying to buy time for the help to arrive?" He thought about it, but he could not get the answer.

Through the [Spirit Eyes], he could not find any approaching beasts from the tunnels. The Dark Tremors below them were not aware of their presence as well, 'Is he going to give up without fighting back?'

"Are you the leader of the Dark Tremors?" Tang Shaoyang inquired.

Aki nodded his head, "If you ask me if I am the one who controlled them, then yes. I am their Leader."

"Easy if you want your children not to be harmed, join my empire and become my vassal. Not only will I not harm your children but I will protect them as well." Tang Shaoyang expressed his thoughts. If Aki was the one who controlled the thousands of the Dark Tremors, he needed this guy alive for his purpose. It was to locate all the tribes in the Gigante Forest.
