The little kitty's thoughts were pure and good-hearted, and she had both courage and wit in the face of great dangers. Lu Yao held a certain fondness for her too.
And, for Liao Ya's sake, he had to lend a helping hand.
At this mont, Lu Yao arrived at the location of the Spiritual Wutong tree, just in ti to see Xin i tending to this towering giant tree.
The True Qi released by a Demon Core was extrely beneficial to plants, so areas where demons resided often had particularly lush vegetation.
The two had t frankly just a few hours before, and now they exchanged a knowing smile.
"How is Ali doing? I ca to see her," he said.
"Reporting to Celestial Lord, Ali has entered the 'Feather Transformation' state, and everything is progressing smoothly. I'll take you there~"
Xin i's fluffy tail shimred with light, and she levitated against gravity, leading Lu Yao up to the middle of the Wutong tree.
There, on a branch, was a crystal egg about half the height of a person, with Ali transforming inside it.
A little white fox was also keeping watch beside it, Xin Ning, her good friend.
Upon seeing Lu Yao's arrival, she hurriedly bowed down to greet him, "I've seen Celestial Lord."
Lu Yao nodded in acknowledgent and then sensed that the towering Wutong tree was slowly infusing spiritual essence into the crystal egg.
He also sprinkled a handful of spiritual essence into the crystal egg to ensure there was enough; coupled with Ali's natural aptitude for transformation, her success was almost guaranteed.
Xin i smiled and said, "On Ali's behalf, I thank the Celestial Lord."
After she finished speaking, Xin Ning also repeatedly kowtowed, "Thank you so much."
Lu Yao found the little white fox's innocent deanor quite interesting and casually rewarded her with a handful of spiritual essence, "No need to be polite. Are you two related?"
Lu Yao didn't mind, but that handful of spiritual essence was truly substantial, making the two fox spirits both shocked and overjoyed at this windfall.
Xin i hurriedly said, "She is my niece. She's grown so big and hasn't transford yet, which must amuse the Celestial Lord. Xin Ning~ Thank the Celestial Lord again!"
But Xin Ning hesitated for a while before finally saying in a sowhat panicked tone, "Aunt, I-I'm going to transform... What should I do?"
Her body was covered in countless protein fibers mixed with True Qi, forming strange crystals all over her body—evidently stimulated to transform by the spiritual essence Lu Yao had given.
Xin i's face flushed with excitent, and her joy was beyond words: "Xin Ning~ Your opportunity has co! Calm down and start your transformation, just like Ali."
Still, Xin Ning looked frightened, the little white fox seemingly naturally timid.
Lu Yao simply gave her another handful of spiritual essence, completing a full handful, and declared, "Don't panic, with here, all will be well. Calm your mind and start your transformation!"
His command, fueled with the force of Mind Force to stimulate the spirit, was like an enlightening sermon. Combined with the comforting sensation of the spiritual essence infusion, Xin Ning instantly cald down, regulated her breathing, and closed her eyes resolutely.
Gradually, the crystals on her body thickened, and she too ford a crystal egg.
Only then did Xin i heave a sigh of relief; her face still blushed with excitent as she jubilantly said to Lu Yao:
"Celestial Lord truly is favored by the heavens; good things happen near you. I was so worried about my niece's transformation, but you've resolved it effortlessly."
Lu Yao replied with a modest smile, "It's all the child's own fortune; I simply happened on the scene."
Xin i cast a flirtatious glance at Lu Yao, then leaned in with her cherry lips to kiss his cheek, cooing softly, "I shall repay you properly tomorrow~"
Lu Yao grabbed her fluffy tail and said, "Just don't scream for rcy."
Xin i widened her watery, peach-blossom eyes and feigned a fierce tone, "That's just at the start because it hurts, but you'll soon see how formidable I can be~"
"Then I look forward to experiencing it~"
A pair of n and won flirted with each other; seeing that it was getting late, Lu Yao left.
Back in the Creation Immortal Boat, Yu Yani and Liao Ya were still studying the swordsmanship manuals inside the ring.
The two won were focused, with Yu Yani even making so sword-fighting gestures.
Seeing the young man return, she pulled out a book, her eyebrows crinkled in disgust, and said, "The people of the Longevity Realm have been harvesting demon cores and blood of the heart to prolong life, which is extrely cruel."
Lu Yao showed no surprise and said, "Wang Zhongfu once wanted to use this thing to exchange for a chance at life; since it's so evil, let's destroy it."
Yu Yani nodded, and with a surge of True Qi from her hands, she turned the book into dust.
They chatted for a short while when Liao Ya suddenly stood up, and with a bit of deliberation, stretched and said, "I'm sleepy, going to sleep first~"
After finishing her words, she ran off like a streak of smoke, even choosing the room furthest away, clearly making space to avoid suspicion.
Yu Yani's face turned a slight red, a bit embarrassed. Fortunately, Lu Yao raised his hand and cast a barrier of Indestructible Will to ensure privacy. Besides, being an old married couple, they weren't as shy as they used to be.
Next, the Moon Fairy ca to closely and carefully realize the true intent of the Martial Saint, an opportunity countless people couldn't obtain even if they spent their entire fortunes.
But suspended in mid-air, with no way to reach heaven or earth, how much she could comprehend would depend on her own ability.
However, one thing was certain: the physique of the Martial Saint had completely surpassed that of the Golden Body Realm.
The intensity of Lu Yao's Indestructible Will was roughly 10 tis that of Yu Yani! Comparing the two was like contrasting an egg with a stone!
~~~~~~~~
This way, picking foxes by day and picking a female Grandmaster by night, Lu Yao honed his Great Lance technique to perfection.
Although clearing the Will of the Evil God was very arduous, he didn't feel tired at all, and ti flew by especially fast. In the blink of an eye, another month had passed.
By this ti, thanks to Lu Yao's continuous efforts over two months, the wounds on Xuan Gui Great Saint were only about 1 kiloter in size, a huge reduction compared to their original size, much like comparing a kumquat to a waterlon.
But for that last bit, Lu Yao found himself powerless to help any further.
This was where the Evil God's attack had hit directly; the malicious intent contained within was terrifying to the extre. To say nothing of touching it, just gazing upon it gave the sensation of withering and rotting.
And this wasn't an illusion. As Lu Yao watched for a while, suddenly a strand of his hair fell out and turned to dust.
His hair could even cut the toughest tals in the world! Yet now, it decayed silently... He quickly retreated, realizing he was still vastly outmatched by the Evil God.
However, Xuan Gui Great Saint was more than content, much relieved compared to before, as if an old bull had shed a heavy load.
He repeatedly thanked Lu Yao, "But all thanks to Lord Lu Tian, old Lao Gui hasn't felt this comfortable in a long ti; it's truly wonderful."
As he spoke, a large tear fell from his turtle eyes onto the ground, and a group of little demons scrambled to grab it.
Confident, Lu Yao said, "I'm temporarily powerless against the last bits. When I have furthered my cultivation in the future, I will surely help the Great Saint eradicate it completely!"
He had full confidence in himself! Through two months of refinent, his understanding of the Martial Path's true intent was like tal repeatedly hamred, becoming solid to the extre.
The Will of the Evil God, although disgusting and dangerous, was also the best cultivation thod in the world, saving him at least ten years of hard work!
Next, he could look forward to breaking through to the Primordial Realm. Lu Yao was eager to personally tear apart the "Primordial Ancestor"!
Xuan Gui Great Saint said with emotion, "Lord Lu Tian, you have granted opportunities to two of my children, who are soon to achieve their Transformative Form. Your kindness to our Demon Race is as heavy as a mountain, words cannot express our gratitude. If there's ever a need for Lao Gui in the future, please don't hesitate to ask!"
"No need for formalities," Lu Yao replied with cupped hands, and then inquired, "Ali and Xin Ning are about to achieve their Transformative Form as well, right?"
Xin i took over the conversation, answered sweetly, "In the next few days."
Lu Yao pondered and said, "I was planning to take leave, but since we've t, I'll wait for them to achieve their Transformative Form."
