Chapter 133: Chapter 131: Iron Armor Rhinoceros
As long as the Ruyi Golden Snake successfully advanced, it could provide him with a substantial amount of Spiritual Energy, boosting his cultivation speed and enhancing the effectiveness of his cultivation by about fifty percent each ti.
This wasn’t rely his own guess; many disciples from the sect, feeling their progress was slow, would focus on nurturing their Lifebound Spiritual Beasts. After the beasts advanced, indeed, this effect was evident.
However, after he left the Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion, he still couldn’t help feeling a pang of heartache.
Even though he had obtained quite a few Spirit Stones and resources from several Bandit Cultivators and Taiyi Mountain disciples previously, his extravagant spending left him with only three to four thousand Spirit Stones.
He dared not spend these stones, as he would need to buy so Spirit Talismans for protection and so elixirs for healing when he went to the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm after so ti.
Additionally, his Magic Artifact, the Demon Slaying Saber, was ruined by the Ruyi Golden Snake during their ti in the Ancient Battlefield. Seeing that the saber was utterly unusable, he felt too lazy to bring it back for repair and fed it directly to the Ruyi Golden Snake.
...
Thus, now besides one Binding Spirit Net and the thirty Cold Ice Stars he reserved as his trump card, he didn’t possess any other magic artifacts.
Qin Feng didn’t buy another magic artifact, feeling he wasn’t far from reaching the Foundation Establishnt Realm. He planned to buy one or two Spiritual Artifacts to use for defense post-Foundation Establishnt, which were far more powerful than magic artifacts.
However, this was not urgent; he would wait until after the Ruyi Golden Snake had advanced.
Besides, most of the combat strength of the Beast Taming Sect’s disciples lay in their spiritual beasts. Even without a magic artifact at hand, they wouldn’t be inferior to others.
Now, it was crucial to integrate the Earth Escape Divine Ability of the Viper into the Ruyi Golden Snake. rely possessing the Divine Ability didn’t an it could be used at will; it needed to absorb Earth Elent Spiritual Energy to activate this divine ability.
Just like the Swallowing Sky Toad couldn’t use Water Elent Techniques and Cold Ice Arrows if it didn’t absorb Water Spirit Energy and foster cold energy within its body.
Moreover, after acquiring a divine ability, it needed much practice. Otherwise, unable to escape far when in danger and being pulled out from the ground would be problematic.
Flying back to Spiritual Snake Peak on the Spiritual Vulture, as soon as Qin Feng returned to his courtyard, he hurriedly placed the Viper into the Demon Refining Pot.
With the support of the spirit vein inside the mansion, the integration of the bloodline within the Qi Refining Realm in the second layer of the Demon Refining Pot didn’t require Qin Feng to invest any additional Spirit Stones; otherwise, the Spirit Stones he had wouldn’t suffice.
Buzz…
The Viper, just introduced to a new environnt, hadn’t even had a chance to look around when the Demon Refining Pot directly refined the essence blood from its body, enveloping the Ruyi Golden Snake in a cloud of blood mist.
Qin Feng could distinctly feel a Rule Power controlling the body of the Ruyi Golden Snake. As the Bloodline Power slowly perated, a new strength gradually awakened within the snake’s body.
A quarter of an hour later, the bloodline integration completed, and the body of the Ruyi Golden Snake returned to normal.
Qin Feng gestured with his hand, and the Ruyi Golden Snake appeared in his palm.
He touched the wings of the Ruyi Golden Snake, silently sensing the changes it brought about now.
Not only could it absorb Gold Elent Spiritual Energy for cultivation, but it also beca very sensitive to Earth Elent Spiritual Energy.
As he willed it, the Ruyi Golden Snake began absorbing both Gold and Earth Elent Spiritual Energies. Far from conflicting, they complented each other, with the Gold Elent Spiritual Energy growing stronger under the nourishnt of the Earth Elent Spiritual Energy.
As it absorbed and refined the Earth Elent Spiritual Energy, a yellow glow gradually rose around the Ruyi Golden Snake.
Swoosh…
With a flap of its wings, the Ruyi Golden Snake soared in the air, circled, then dove into the ground, disappearing.
However, since it was its first ti using the Earth Escape, lacking proficiency and sufficient Earth Elent Primordial Qi, the Ruyi Golden Snake only managed to burrow two feet deep and consud all the absorbed Earth Elent Spiritual Energy, getting stuck underground.
Of course, such a shallow depth couldn’t trap it.
Qin Feng didn’t let the Ruyi Golden Snake co up directly but experinted with converting Gold Elent Spiritual Energy into Earth Elent Spiritual Energy to continue using the Earth Escape.
He found that although it consud more energy, it was indeed feasible, which relieved him.
Currently, the main issue was that the Ruyi Golden Snake didn’t possess enough Earth Elent Spiritual Energy internally to sustain the Earth Escape for long, and also, the escape depth was shallow, making it easy for soone to detect its trace.
It seed, in the upcoming period, more effort should be put into this area to aim to master the Earth Escape to the point of divine proficiency before heading to the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm.
Especially after rging with the Ruyi Golden Snake, he must be able to burrow into the ground imdiately.
Qin Feng felt that in the future, it would be best to seize the opportunity to acquire the Golden Escape Technique, making him a perfect match with the Ruyi Golden Snake.
Of course, if he could master the Five Elents Escape Technique as a set, that would be even better.
Regrettably, though there were many Spiritual Snakes capable of Water Escape, those with innate divine abilities to understand the other escape techniques were rare, and even the Sect might not be able to gather them all.
To collect the Five Elents Escape Techniques, he probably needed to look beyond the Spiritual Snakes to other Spiritual Beasts.
The yellow glow underground flashed, and the Ruyi Golden Snake burst forth from the ground into Qin Feng’s hands, still radiating golden light, its body completely free of soil.
Qin Feng, with a smile, took out a Spirit Transformation Golden Pill and fed it to the Ruyi Golden Snake.
The Spirit Transformation Golden Pill had a potent effect—it was specially concocted by the Sect’s alchemists for the advancent of Gold Elent Spiritual Beasts because the Gold Elent Spiritual Energy contained within was too sharp; only the robust physique of a Spiritual Beast could withstand it.
Ordinary cultivators dared not ingest such a substance for fear that the sharp Gold Elent Spiritual Energy might damage their internal organs.
A bottle of Spirit Transformation Golden Pills contained ten pills, and Qin Feng fed one to the Ruyi Golden Snake every seven days; by the ti they finished, over two months had passed.
After consuming these golden pills, the Golden Qi within the Ruyi Golden Snake had intensified to the extre, eventually undergoing a qualitative change due to the quantitative accumulation and successfully advanced to beco a Foundation Establishnt Realm Spiritual Beast.
Qin Feng delved deeply into the sensations of the Ruyi Golden Snake’s advancent.
Although his human body differed from a snake’s, the Ruyi Golden Snake was his lifebound Spiritual Beast, and there was a close connection between them; he still gleaned quite a lot from the experience.
Once the Ruyi Golden Snake had successfully advanced, Qin Feng imdiately felt a surge of pure Spiritual Power enter his body, surprisingly stimulating the cultivation of his True Yuan inside.
Unbeknownst to him, half a day passed, and when he ca to his senses again, it was already night.
At the ti, the True Yuan within his body had thickened considerably compared to before.
Although he felt that he was still a hair’s breadth away from reaching the Qi Refining Perfection Realm, with further cultivation for a period, he could be on the verge of advancing to Foundation Establishnt at any ti.
Qin Feng was overjoyed—it was indeed beneficial to have a lifebound Spiritual Beast, sothing other Sect cultivators could not comprehend.
Now, the power inside the Ruyi Golden Snake was more condensed than his True Yuan; if his True Yuan were to be described as mist, then the power inside the Ruyi Golden Snake was like a flowing stream. Every ti his True Yuan interacted with the Ruyi Golden Snake’s, it beca denser, seemingly on the verge of transforming into a stream.
He secluded himself in the courtyard for another seven or eight days until the Ruyi Golden Snake’s realm was completely stabilized. By that ti, his own cultivation had also strengthened by a few degrees.
That day, Qin Feng left the courtyard and headed straight for the Foreign Affairs Hall.
After the Ruyi Golden Snake’s successful advancent, his strength was also considerably greater than before, and he needed to find an opponent to test his current war power.
He didn’t want to spar with fellow disciples as that held little aning for him.
Neither side could fight lethally, making the combat awkward and constrained; he might as well look for a suitable mission in the Foreign Affairs Hall, both to hone his war power and to earn so rewards and rits.
Upon arriving at the Foreign Affairs Hall, Qin Feng confidently walked up to the stone wall where missions were posted, searching for one that suited him.
He avoided tasks too distant from the Sect, fearing they would take too long and possibly cause him to miss the opening of Heavenly Pool Secret Realm.
He didn’t choose complicated tasks either, as he currently only wanted to take on tasks that would hone his skills, not to handle trivial matters.
A mont later, his eyes lit up when he spotted a mission to clear out Demon Beasts.
A small group of Iron Armor Rhinoceroses had appeared three thousand miles away from the Sect, within the territory of Sang City.
Though the group of Iron Armor Rhinoceroses was not very strong, their thick skin and powerful defenses made it difficult even for the two small families’ Foundation Establishnt Cultivators in Sang City to kill or drive them away; instead, many Spiritual Mulberry Trees were destroyed by them.
If this destruction continued, Sang City would suffer significant losses, possibly reducing the resources contributed to the Sect next year.
Qin Feng carefully considered his options. The Iron Armor Rhinoceroses were imnsely strong but heavily focused on defense, making them an ideal opponent for him. These creatures were large and slow to react, unlikely to hurt him easily, apt for refining his war skills.
Even if he were accidentally caught in their attack, he could rely on the Earth Escape to evade, making sure he wouldn’t be trapped and unable to escape.
With the Ruyi Golden Snake’s formidable attack power, he should be able to break through the defenses of the Iron Armor Rhinoceroses without returning empty-handed.
Having made up his mind, he no longer hesitated and went directly to the disciple handling missions LatLng{} to take on the task against the Iron Armor Rhinoceroses, then promptly set off, riding the Spiritual Vulture toward Sang City.
