- the predator form available given to practitioner by heaven is as follow :
- Lion Form
- Tiger Form
- Eagle Form
Practitioner may choose the form they wish to learn. -
'will the be another choices after this? what a complicated and time consuming art.
but if i have to choose, i think i will take lion. i like lion since i am a child' Rick think as he make his choice in his head.
- practitioner have made their choice.
good luck. -
as he listen to the voice, a rush of memory suddenly emerged inside his head. like when you forget something than you remember every single details about it in second. there is no pain, but Rick eyes lost its focus for a few second before he got back to himself.
it is a memory for the method to cultivate Lion Form for Chimera Body Arts. it is told that to cultivate the Lion Form, the practitioner must defeat a lion beast and bind its body to oneself using energy fron his core as a glue and also a catalyst. then the practitioner need to cultivate hard and increase their power until their body fully combined with the lion.
the question is, where will Rick find a lion?
***
Rick is now back in Gunda's house again.
he is consulting with Gunda regarding the requirement of his soon to be new form.
"you need a lion beast to complete your new arts, right? " Gunda asked to be sure.
"yes, but i know a beast here is quite strong. I've seen a boar beast once and it take all of us together just to kill it. i believe a lion beast is much more stronger than a boar. " Rick said his thought.
"i can say that you are right. but since you have to defeat a lion beast, i am sure you want to defeat the best and stronger one so you can gain the best body possible right? " Inquiry Gunda.
Rick think for a bit, a memory surge from the deepest part of his brain telling him more details about the requirement for his form.
"i don't think that is necessary. based on the knowledge in my head, as long as it is a lion beast then i will still get the best form for me. but if i can find a variant, it will be considered better because a variant have a more specialize body that may suit me better. " Rick explained.
"interesting, this is the first time i know that a cultivation arts can provide multiple result depend on the user choice. "
"alright, I'll take you to the one lion beast i know may exist. but it is not a variant and you may just get a normal result, is it okay? " Gunda offer.
"sure, even normal result is already better than nothing. " Rick said as he stand up.
after a few preparation is made by Gunda, mostly cleaning up to make sure his house remain neat and clean while he is away, he take Rick to enter the prairie to find a lion beast.
Gunda tell Rick that a lion beast can be found on the outer side of the Silent Prairie. they may not be much of a stalker beast like most hunter beast do, but it is a successful hunter who tackle their prey head on. Rick like how the beast described. it is like this beast will be his way to not become his past self. an assassin.
it take a while but finally they find a pride of lions. it consist of a single male lion with three female lion and five lion cub around it.
"there, that is the lion nest that i know living nearby. i can take care of the lioness for you, but i will not have time to help you with the male lion. and believe me that one is strong as much as he is old. " Gunda explained.
Rick is considering his chance. without Gunda helping him, taking the lion looks like an impossible task. this old majestic lion, even from distance away, have a suffocating aura around it.
"Gunda sorry if i ask, is this lion beast equal to any level of new stage cultivator? " Rick Inquiry.
"as much as i know, a lion that old is already as strong as advance level cultivator. it just need to develop more or mutating before being considered to strong for this prairie. "
"you really think i can defeat such beast by myself? " Rick ask again, quite upset with Gunda response.
"of course not, i was about to stop you if you ever really try to fight it. i know this guy here is holding himself to not advance any further. because it is lazy and it enjoy the power is currently have. " Gunda say with teasing smile.
"then why ar- ah never mind. can you help me find a weaker lion, one that i can take by myself? " asked Rick again after giving up being upsetupset to Gunda.
"haha sorry to pull this one on you. i know a lone lion beast actually. a young one and still quite weak, but it is a strength type variant. is it okay with you? " Gunda asked.
"sure, please take me to it. the sooner this over the better. " Rick said with no motivation.
Gunda then take Rick for a patrol across the prairie. Gunda last see the lone lion at the border of this pride, look confused between trying to enter and take over the pride or leave and fine other pride to take.
after a while they finally found it. laying behind a curve below ground.
this young lion is almost five meter long and two meter height. its hair is dirty brown. but the most notable thing about it is its muscle. this lion is like a body builder on steroid doing some weight lift. a smack from that paw certainly will cripple Rick in instant.
"there, that is the lone lion i told you about. the new young lion beast variant Muscle Prairie Lion. will you face it? " said Gunka amused.
