The most formidable among the leopard-type demon beasts is the Sacred Domain Demon Beast 'Thunderbolt Leopard', which is the purest thunder-type sacred beast. Its speed is so fast that other Sacred Domain Demon Beasts are far from comparable.

  And if we're talking about leopard-type demon beasts, the most mysterious one would have to be the 9th-grade demon beast 'Black-striped Cloud Leopard'.

  The last recorded appearance of the black-striped clouded leopard was over a thousand years ago. Even after so many years, the records collected by countless people are still very brief.

  Black-striped Cloud Leopard, a 9th-level magical beast. Extremely fast, with several rare black stripes on its body, while the fur on its four hooves is snow-white. As if stepping on clouds. It's precisely because of the Black-striped Cloud Leopard's appearance that humans named it 'Black-striped Cloud Leopard'.

  As for what kind of magical beast a black-striped cloud leopard is and what its special abilities are, there's no record of it in the books.

  "I'm afraid that in history, even the strongest who have seen the black-striped cloud leopard have perished. Even the true saints who knew the reality of the black-striped cloud leopard probably intentionally concealed those messages." Lin Lei was very clear about the level of secrecy regarding some information among the upper echelons of various major powers, not even spreading it to magic level seven and above, which is a glimpse into this.

  In the dense forest of the central region of the Magic Beast Mountain Range, the Black-striped Cloud Leopard was facing off against Lin Lei, who was hovering in mid-air with his wings flapping.

  "The black-striped cloud leopard's size can change, and its appearance can also transform. It's indeed very eerie." Lin Lei didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

  The black-striped cloud leopard gave Lin Lei a cold look, its eyes filled with anger.

  "Whoosh!"

  In the blink of an eye, the black-striped leopard had traversed nearly fifty meters and appeared right in front of him, its speed almost half faster than when it was in its first form (normal size, with dense black stripes all over its body).

  Half of it.

  Suddenly the speed increased so much that Lin Lei was unable to dodge. His chest was fiercely clawed by the black-striped cloud leopard, and his scales shattered on the spot. "Puchi!" A sound of fresh blood seeped out.

  "Hoot!" Lin Lei immediately flapped his wings violently and flew even higher at an incredible speed.

  "What incredible speed!" Lin Lei was shocked in his heart.

  The first form of the black-striped cloud leopard is slightly faster than Beibei. The second form (with increased volume) has a speed that drops by two or three levels, equivalent to Lin Lei's. As for the third form (its current appearance), its speed is actually half a level faster than the first form.

  It's come to this point, and at a distance of 100 meters, it's estimated that in the blink of an eye, we'll arrive.

  Too scary!

  "Roar~~" The black-striped cloud leopard looked up at Lin Lei with pride in its eyes.

  Lin Lei's transparent cyan wings fluttered slowly, but he didn't descend. Lin Lei was very clear that once he lowered his altitude, with the speed of a black-striped cloud leopard, he would really be unable to resist.

  "Older brother, I'm going up." Beibei, who had been watching from the side, could no longer hold back.

  "Wow~~"

  A terrifying screech sounded, and Beibei directly transformed into a black shadowy figure charging towards the Black-striped Cloud Leopard. The Black-striped Cloud Leopard, who had not been paying attention to Beibei at all, only now discovered Beibei's astonishing speed.

  "Extreme Speed!" Lin Lei directly instantaneously cast a supporting magic spell.

  The auxiliary magic 'Extreme Speed' was directly applied to Beibei, and in the past, Beibei had never encountered a ninth-level magical beast that was faster than him. Therefore, Lin Lei had also never cast the auxiliary magic 'Extreme Speed' on Beibei before. But at this moment, Lin Lei finally did so.

  In fact, this auxiliary magic is generally used by mages in a team to buff their warriors.

  "Whoosh!" A level 8 magician's 'Speed' buff caused Bebe's speed to increase by nearly 30% in an instant.

  "Hiss." The black-striped cloud leopard's sharp claws immediately swiped at Beibei.

  But Beibei, who increased her speed by 30%, was still a bit slower than the black-striped clouded leopard, but the gap was no longer large. Most importantly, Beibei's small body made her extremely agile.

  Baby keeps moving and changing direction.

  "Whoa~~" Beibei suddenly leapt up at high speed, and in the process of jumping, his body also rapidly expanded, then he slapped the black-striped cloud leopard with a heavy paw.

  The black-striped clouded leopard also looked at Beibei coldly and swiped its paw fiercely towards Beibei.

  "Hmph!"

  "Hmph!"

  The two beasts almost simultaneously grabbed each other, and Beibei's paw left a clear scratch on the black-striped cloud leopard's body, with fresh blood seeping out. Beibei's body was thrown flying, but after rolling on the ground, she got up again, without any injury.

  "Huh?" Lin Lei's eyes immediately widened in surprise.

  "Babe's attack power is about the same as mine. But how did Babe get hurt so easily?" Lin Lei was shocked. Lin Lei knew very well that Babe's defense was extremely abnormal.

  When Bebe first entered the Misty Mountain Valley, he was only considered to be at the initial stage of the 8th level Magic Beast Realm, yet he could withstand the fatal blow from the Thorned Iron Armor Dragon without dying. Now that Bebe has stepped into the 9th level realm, his defense is even more terrifying than Lin Lei's.

  It's strange that the black-striped clouded leopard's defense has decreased.

  "Ah, I see."

  Lin Lei suddenly realized the special features of the three forms of the black-striped cloud leopard. The first form should have been in a very balanced state, with attack, defense, and speed all being well-balanced. The second form, which increased in size, had decreased speed but increased attack power. And now, the third form had suddenly increased speed, but its defense had decreased.

  At this moment, the black-striped cloud leopard was facing Beibei, and the black-striped cloud leopard felt the blood flowing in his body, and he had already begun to worry. Because the strange shadow mouse in front of him was not damaged at all.

  "Heiwen Yunbao." Lin Lei said aloud.

  Black-striped cloud leopard looked at Lin Lei.

  Lin Lei didn't consider the black-striped cloud leopard as an inferior creature, but rather as an equal intelligent being: "Black-striped cloud leopard, in your current form, you should be fast but have low defense. Like this, even Beibei would be able to defeat you."

  "Roar~~" The black-striped clouded leopard let out a dissatisfied roar.

  The black-striped clouded leopard stared at Beibei, but instead of making a sound, it let out a strange low growl. Beibei was taken aback, and then she also let out a low growl.

  "Boss, this black-striped cloud leopard can speak our mouse clan's language." Beibei transmitted to Lin Lei.

  Lin Lei was very clear that Beibei had understood the language of mouse-like magical beasts since birth, but he didn't understand other magical beast languages. In fact, the languages between different groups of magical beasts were also different.

  Some long-lived higher demons are skilled in multiple racial languages of demons.

  Like the Black-striped Cloud Leopard, a ninth-level peak demon beast, it not only understands many demon beast clan languages but also human language. However, human language cannot be spoken with the physiological structure of a demon beast. Only when reaching the Holy Domain level and undergoing rebirth can human language be spoken.

  "What did he say?" Lin Lei asked immediately.

  Babe was growling and communicating with the black-striped clouded leopard in a low voice, but suddenly Babe and the clouded leopard seemed to have a dispute, and the two magical beasts' fur stood up.

  "Roar!!"

  "Wow~~~~"

  The two monsters suddenly went crazy and attacked each other, with shadows flashing back and forth, blood flying everywhere... The roar continued, the two monsters quickly exchanged blows, while the nearby trees and giant rocks were affected.

  The big tree crashed down, and the boulder shattered.

  Wherever these two demons pass, everything becomes a wasteland.

  Suddenly the two magical beasts parted, Beibei lowered her body and let out a low growl as she stared at the Black-striped Cloud Leopard. The Black-striped Cloud Leopard also looked at Beibei with great hostility.

  The black-striped clouded leopard was covered in fresh blood.

  After lowering his defense, he was unable to withstand Bebe's sharp claws. As for speed, Bebe, who had been boosted by 'Extreme Speed', was only slightly inferior to him.

  Babe roared at the black-striped clouded leopard.

  The black-striped clouded leopard growled low at Beibei.

  "Boss, this black-striped cloud leopard refuses to surrender. It says you don't have the ability to defeat it." Beibei transmitted a message to Lin Lei, "Boss, let me kill it for you."

  At this moment, Heiwen Yunbao was also very worried.

  If he transforms into the other two major forms, his speed is not as good as others and can only be trampled. But even if he transforms into this 'wind system form' at this moment, his speed has increased, but his defense has decreased.

  The black-striped cloud leopard also knew that the human on the other side could fly.

  His flying speed can absolutely exceed the speed of four hooves running. When he moves at close range, he may be able to surpass Lin Lei. But once he runs away, Lin Lei and Bei Bei can easily catch up with him.

  "Black-striped Cloud Leopard, you think I can't defeat you?" Lin Lei said loudly.

  The black-striped cloud leopard immediately raised its proud head against Lin Lei. In close combat, the speed advantage of the wings could not be fully exerted at all. He was not afraid of Lin Lei.

  "Good." Lin Lei nodded slightly.

  Then Lin Lei recited the magic spell again, and at this moment, the black-striped cloud leopard hesitated. However, as a wind-attributed demon beast, he was not worried that Lin Lei would have any more powerful wind magic. Moreover, he also knew that if he escaped, Lin Lei could easily catch up with him.

  "Hmm..."

  All that can be seen is a layer of yellowish light covering an area of about 100 meters around the black-striped clouded leopard, which is flashing with special fluctuations.

  The black-striped clouded leopard felt an astonishing gravitational pull coming from the ground, its entire body involuntarily shrinking, and even the blood and heart inside its body were affected by the gravitational force in that instant, causing the black-striped clouded leopard to feel dizzy for a moment.

  Earth-based magic - Gravity technique!

  A level 8 mage's 'Gravity Spell' has increased the gravitational force to nearly eight times its original strength. The power of this eightfold gravity is not something that can be compared to simply placing over a thousand kilograms of weight on a two hundred kilogram body. The effects of eightfold gravity not only act on the surface, but also affect internal organs such as the heart, liver, and spleen.

  An ordinary person can probably carry one or two hundred kilograms of heavy objects.

  But under twice the gravity, the heart may not be able to withstand it and die suddenly.

  It is known that the muscles on the surface of the body can be trained, but the internal organs such as the heart and lungs are difficult to train. At least the degree of improvement is far less than that of the external muscles.

  Suddenly attacked by 'eight times gravity', the black-striped cloud leopard only felt a dizziness.

  Before he could come to his senses, Lin Lei, who was enveloped in a layer of yellowish light, rushed down at high speed and started crazily... punching and kicking the Black-striped Cloud Leopard!

  Yes, no heavy sword with black hilt.

  Just use fists and feet!

  "Roar~~" The ninth-level magical beast's physique was amazingly robust, and it completely got used to this state in just a short while. However, under eight times the gravity, its speed didn't even reach half of what it was before.

  "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"...... "Boom!"

  One foot kicked heavily on the abdomen of the black-striped cloud leopard, and then Lin Lei rushed in another direction, punching the body of the black-striped cloud leopard and knocking it back again.

  Fists and feet flying in just ten short seconds.

  The black-striped cloud leopard was trampled by Lin Lei, and its current speed couldn't escape the range of the Gravity Spell. Moreover, there was also BeiBei staring at it with a fierce gaze beside it.

  "Are you convinced?"

  "Are you convinced?"

  Lin Lei shouted while crazily punching and kicking, trampling the ninth-level peak demon beast 'Black Stripe Cloud Leopard' into a state of complete powerlessness. A mouthful of fresh blood also spurted out from its mouth.

  "Roar~~" The black-striped clouded leopard suddenly let out a sorrowful and indignant cry.

  "Boss, he's had enough."

  "Peng." Lin Lei's fist was too fast and another punch hit the black-striped cloud leopard on the head, smashing it to the ground.

  Lin Lei smiled as he looked at the black-striped cloud leopard on the ground, which was already dizzy from the super-long pressure of blood circulation and other functions under eight times gravity, and had been ravaged by Lin Lei's crazy attack.

  "Are you convinced now?" Lin Lei smiled as he looked at Heiwen Yunbao.

  Lin Lei was smiling, but at this moment, Lin Lei, who was completely in the dragon's shape, had a pair of dark golden pupils that were always indifferent and emotionless. The face covered with scales, how could it be seen that Lin Lei was smiling?

  The black-striped cloud leopard looked up at Lin Lei, especially with the corners of his mouth curled up, and his heart trembled. He was afraid of being trampled by Lin Lei again. He nodded immediately. Moreover, he was also truly convinced by Lin Lei's strength. A warrior with astonishing physical and magical strength, enough to make him surrender.

  Lin Lei smiled and immediately set up a Soul Contract Magic Array!
