Humans are the most intelligent of all creatures, born with wisdom.
Creatures without innate intelligence, who gain wisdom through external cultivation, are all called demons.
In an environnt abundant with Spiritual Qi:
Flying in the sky, swimming in the water, walking on the ground, crawling underground... all creatures have the chance to beco demons.
The Water Spirit Vein of the Cang River stretches over a hundred miles, harboring countless shrimps, crabs, fish, and turtles.
In this vast Water Race, even if only one in ten thousand individuals accidentally breathes Spiritual Qi and begins to develop intelligence, it is still an imnse number.
"I rember that within the Cang River, there seem to be over a dozen water-dwelling demon beasts at Qi Refining Perfection."
"But these dozen demon beasts have always been under the secret surveillance of the disciples of the association, just waiting for their mont of transformation..."
Zhang Yao couldn't help but feel stirred as he thought about this.
Water-dwelling demon beasts at the Qi Refining Stage are like tasteless chicken ribs to the Foundation Establishnt masters of the Haihe Association.
However, if these Qi Refining demon beasts break through to the Foundation Establishnt Stage, that would be a different story.
Demon beasts at the Foundation Establishnt Stage are treasures, pri materials for Alchemy and Artifact Refining.
If one could mark them with a blood contract and accept them as Spirit Beasts, it would be a great gain, adding a loyal and powerful Foundation Establishnt ally.
"These dozen water-dwelling demon beasts at Qi Refining Perfection are like dosticated chicks..."
Zhang Yao frowned slightly and shook his head secretly.
"Better to leave it alone, these demon beasts are under secret surveillance, and it's best not to interfere recklessly."
"If I really want to conduct bloodline experints, I'll have to select my own test subjects..."
Demon beasts at Qi Refining Perfection are most likely to enhance their bloodline and break through cultivation, but they are already targeted due to their prominence.
Zhang Yao could only settle for second best, trying to select so strong water-dwelling demon beasts for his envisioned bloodline experints.
"Once the matters with the Du Bu Alliance are resolved, I'll start right away, perhaps beginning with the common fish-like demon beasts..."
Zhang Yao planned in his mind, quickly pondering the specific execution steps.
......
On the other side.
Kang Continent, at the headquarters of the Du Bu Alliance.
Du Bu Daoist sat high on the main seat, his face slightly grim, snapping shut the letter in his hand with a 'snap' sound.
He looked sharp, with deep-set eyes and long, willow-leaf brows. Despite his apparent old age, he couldn't hide a sharp aura.
"...I understand this matter."
Du Bu Daoist put down the letter, speaking expressionlessly:
"I will give you an answer within three days at the latest."
"Thank you, Alliance Leader Du Bu."
Master Cang'er smiled slightly, bowed gracefully, and withdrew from the main hall of the Du Bu Alliance headquarters.
After he left:
"Bang!"
Du Bu Daoist couldn't suppress his anger any longer, slamming his palm on the desk with a dull roar:
"Useless fool... fool!"
"Embarrassnt, caught red-handed by a re newly-promoted Foundation Establishnt, truly disgraceful."
His anger surged uncontrollably, his eyes filled with disgust and fury.
If the Haihe Association was a loose organization built on Lord Haihe's skills and background;
Then the Du Bu Alliance was entirely ford through Du Bu Daoist's personal strength and prestige, gathering many lone Foundation Establishnt cultivators to form a coalition.
In this situation, the Du Bu Alliance's organization was even more fragnted, everyone banding together, but with few common interests, most busy with their own affairs.
Such as Feng Dujuan, whose identity within the Du Bu Alliance was rely a backdrop, primarily focused on the Feng Family matters, secretly extracting the Haihe Association's mineral veins for her own interests.
Yet, as the big boss of the Du Bu Alliance, whenever subordinates get into trouble, Du Bu Daoist inevitably becos implicated and often has to find ways to cover for them.
"Another troubleso matter..."
After venting his anger slightly, Du Bu Daoist quickly regained his composure, weighing pros and cons.
After pondering for a while, he issued a summon to gather the Foundation Establishnt mbers of the Du Bu Alliance within the headquarters and the Kang Continent.
After the ssage was sent:
In less than two days, seven or eight mbers of the Du Bu Alliance rushed over from various parts of Kang Continent, adding to those residing permanently at the headquarters, totaling over ten Foundation Establishnt mbers.
This wasn't yet the full count of Du Bu Alliance's Foundation Establishnt mbers.
As the faction with the most Foundation Establishnt cultivators among second-rate forces, the Du Bu Alliance boasts over twenty Foundation Establishnt mbers, their origins varied, many hiding their identities or even using false identities.
"You all know the news. Share your views."
In the main hall of the Du Bu Alliance, Du Bu Daoist spoke calmly.
"What's there to discuss?"
A bearded big man with a muscular face spoke loud and clear:
"This is definitely slander; how dare the people of the Haihe Association affirm that we led the ore extraction operation?"
"Clearly, it's that slut Feng Dujuan's doing. I never got even a single Spirit Stone from it..."
"Fellow Daoist Man is correct."
An elder sitting upright, solemnly, nodded and spoke in a heavy voice:
"This matter has nothing to do with us, she reaped the rewards herself and should bear the responsibility."
"In my view, it's better to directly expel Feng Dujuan and let the Haihe Association deal with her."
Once these words were spoken, many Foundation Establishnt cultivators echoed in agreent, reaching a unanimous consensus.
The majority of Du Bu Alliance's Foundation Establishnt cultivators adhere to the principle of non-interference, not bothering with Feng Dujuan's fate.
