Xu Ning stood in the courtyard, holding a storage bag.
Currently, the bag contained a total of one hundred top-grade spirit fields.
These were the fruits of Xu Ning's labor over the past few years. Of course, Xu Ning had also stockpiled a large amount of top-grade spiritual manure, preparing to upgrade his spirit fields to the legendary level.
However, one thing troubled him: where would he undergo his tribulation?
Even if he had a hundred lives, he wouldn't dare undergo his tribulation in the Demon Realm.
After much thought, Xu Ning decided to wait until he had accumulated enough spiritual manure before making a run for it and returning to the human world to undergo his tribulation.
Next, he needed to prepare the upgrade materials.
Back in his thatched hut, Xu Ning was about to refine pills when his communication talisman beeped.
He took it out and saw it was a ssage from his master, Miao Yunyi.
"Disciple, have you reached Foundation Establishnt yet?"
Seeing this ssage, Xu Ning was sowhat dumbfounded. Foundation Establishnt? That seed far off. He was currently only at the ninth level of Qi Refining and the seventh level of Blood Refining.
He imdiately replied, "Master, I haven't reached the Foundation Establishnt stage yet."
Miao Yunyi pressed, "Impossible! Even with your mixed five-elent spiritual root, you still haven't reached the Foundation Establishnt stage?"
Xu Ning explained, "Well, Master, I'm preparing for a top-tier Foundation Establishnt. I'm just getting everything ready."
Miao Yunyi approved, "That's more like it. By the way, I have so news for you. The Nascent Soul stage cultivators on the human side have erged from seclusion and are preparing to launch a counterattack on the Crimson Sea Mountains."
"Disciple, when I decide to rebuild the Tianbao Sect, you must co and lend a hand."
Xu Ning hesitated, "Master, I can't leave for a while."
Miao Yunyi asked, "Where have you gone now?"
Xu Ning replied, "I'm trapped in the Demon Realm."
Miao Yunyi was stunned. "What? Say that again?"
Xu Ning repeated, "The Demon Realm. I'm in the Demon Realm now."
Miao Yunyi scolded, "You rebellious disciple, how dare you be so bold? If your identity as a human cultivator is exposed, I don't know how you'll die!"
Xu Ning tried to reassure him, "Master, it's actually quite safe here!"
Xu Ning wasn't just saying this carelessly. Compared to the turmoil in the human cultivation world, the Demon Realm was far too peaceful. It could almost be described as tranquil.
After all, demons have longer lifespans, and demon cultivators don't have the sa sense of urgency about their lifespan as human cultivators. Therefore, the competition for resources is not as brutal, and the cycle of eras is much longer.
Before coming to the Demon Realm, Xu Ning had already thought through these issues.

Miao Yunyi asked, "Did you hide in the demon kingdom using that cultivation technique you gave ? By the way, is the technique you created really that powerful?"
Xu Ning boasted, "Old Deng, you're underestimating . Your disciple is a prodigy, a genius that only appears once every 100,000 years. The cultivation technique I created is an unparalleled, suprely powerful technique!"
Miao Yunyi snorted, "You're really good at bragging. I'd like to see for myself once I've mastered it."
Xu Ning asked, "You haven't mastered it yet?"
Miao Yunyi admitted, "If I had, I would have already gone to the Crimson Sea Mountains to roam. By the way, while you're in the demon kingdom, aren't you trying to acquire so of the resources they don't want?"
Xu Ning replied, "Don't you know how to keep a low profile!"
Xu Ning had already considered this. The Demon Realm doesn't need resources like array-refining materials, weapon-refining materials, or spirit iron. In their eyes, they're no different from garbage.
Human cultivators, on the other hand, are in great demand for these items because they have long growth cycles.
And the spiritual herbs that demon cultivators need most can be cultivated on a large scale by human cultivators.
So Xu Ning had considered exchanging large quantities of spiritual herbs from human cultivators for the unwanted resources from the Demon Realm, profiting from the price difference.
However, as the saying goes, discretion is key. Doing so would easily attract unwanted attention.
Resources could be acquired later. This ti, his goal was to obtain spiritual waste—and lots of it.
Miao Yunyi grumbled, "If I had your abilities, I would have already obtained enough resources to establish the Tianbao Sect!"
Xu Ning sighed, "Master, can you please stop ntioning the Tianbao Sect? It's so annoying!"
Miao Yunyi retorted, "You unfilial disciple, what do you an? Are you forgetting the sect, betraying your master and ancestors?"
Xu Ning clarified, "That's not what I ant. I just think the Tianbao Sect can be established anyti. Master, improving your own cultivation is more important right now."
Miao Yunyi admitted, "Difficult. I haven't even reached the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm yet."
Xu Ning encouraged, "Take it slow. Your disciple can't help you with that right now."
Miao Yunyi concluded, "Alright, that's enough. I'll contact you again!"
Ending the ssage, Xu Ning continued refining pills.
However, before he had even finished two batches, a voice ca from outside.
"Ding You, are you there?"
It was the voice of Clan Chief Huang Ming. Xu Ning quickly finished his current pill and went outside.
Once outside, Xu Ning saw Clan Chief Huang Ming with a white wolf beside him.
White wolves were quite rare in the Wild Wolf Clan.
Huang Ming said, "Ding You, this is a junior mber of the clan I specially selected. Look at its white coat. I feel it's a sign of atavism. Do you think you can train it?"
Xu Ning glanced at the wolf and was speechless. "Clan Chief, isn't this just albinism? Where's the sign of atavism?"
Huang Ming's face fell. "Ding You, that's going too far! I had such high hopes, and you're really discouraging !"
Xu Ning insisted, "Clan Chief, that's the truth. Would I lie to you?"
Huang Ming stubbornly declared, "I don't care. You must train it!"
Xu Ning sighed helplessly. "Fine. Leave it here for now."
Huang Ming's face lit up with delight. "Ding You, so you an there's still a possibility of training it?"
Xu Ning wanted to say that, for him, anything he trained would beco powerful. It just required a lot of resources and ti.
He also needed to prepare for his future departure. The Wild Wolf clan had treated him well for the past ten years, and he didn't want them to decline again after he left. Giving them a beacon of hope before he went seed like the right thing to do.
"It looks... possible," Xu Ning replied vaguely.
Huang Ming nodded happily. "Okay, I'll leave him here then. I'll be going now!"
With that, Huang Ming departed.
Xu Ning then looked at the white wolf and raised his hand, saying, "Co with ."
The white wolf nodded and followed Xu Ning.
Soon, Xu Ning led the white wolf to the peach tree in the center of the courtyard.
It was the height of the peach blossom season, and pink petals were scattered all over the ground.
Xu Ning sat barefoot under the peach tree, looking at the white wolf. "What's your na?"
The white wolf replied respectfully, "Uncle, my na is Bai Ye."
Xu Ning nodded. "I didn't lie to you. You do indeed have albinism, and your cultivation aptitude is only average."
Bai Ye's eyes flashed with disappointnt. "Uncle, I understand."
Xu Ning changed his tone. "However, since the clan leader sent you here, I do have a way to make you stronger. Do you want to try?"
Bai Ye nodded quickly, his eyes regaining their light. "Uncle, I'm willing to try. No matter the outco, no matter the cost!"
Xu Ning nodded approvingly. "Alright. I'll help you from now on. Also, you'll need to learn business from . If I'm gone, you'll have to carry the banner of our Wild Wolf clan."
Bai Ye beca anxious. "Uncle, where are you going?"
Xu Ning clarified, "I'm not leaving right now. I'm just saying that sothing might happen that could delay . The clan will depend on you then."
Bai Ye nodded vigorously. "Okay, Uncle!"
