Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming
Chapter 695 - 689: Nine-Tier Spiritual Beast, Six Fortunate Ones

"How about it, Daoist Fellow, are you satisfied?"

The smiling tiger from the White Bone City, Shang Huanxi, looked at Qin Feng with a grin and said, "Before leaving, the City Lord instructed that we must ensure you return satisfied. So, if there is anything else you require, just mention it, and I will order it to be arranged for you as quickly as possible!"

Indeed, had it been any other sect's True Immortal, even one from the five major super forces, Shang Huanxi would not have offered such words, let alone be so obsequious.

But Qin Feng was different.

Although the Beast Taming Sect held significant power in the Southern Domain, it was merely one major sect, not something that he, as an Immortal originating from the Nine Nether Ghost City, would take too seriously. What truly made him value the two of them was their status as Masters of Qi Fortune, recognized by the Biluo Heavenly Dao!

Inherited from countless years of experience in the Cultivation World, who didn't know that crossing a Master of Qi Fortune rarely ended well?

The current Cultivation World was entirely different from the Ancient Great Tribulation era; it had fewer internal dangers. As long as the two of them did not fall in the Outer Domains, the chances of them dying unexpectedly under the vast protection of Qi Fortune were practically non-existent. This meant that under the favor of the Heavenly Dao, it was highly likely that both of them would achieve Golden Immortal status.

And both had already shown potential for Proving Dao!

It had been only a few years since the Five Domains trial, yet those who were previously at the Purple Mansion Cultivation had now achieved Immortal Dao!

Such a rate of cultivation, aside from a few prodigies from the Ancient Great Tribulation period, was truly unmatched by others.

Even among their fellow Masters of Qi Fortune from the same group, aside from that freakishly talented individual from the Taixuan Daoist School in the East Domain who achieved Immortal status early, the rest were still loitering within the Primordial Spirit Realm.

It was precisely because of Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen's potential that neither the White Bone City Lord nor the other two powers had taken them lightly; instead, they had expressed goodwill in their words!

Likewise, how could Shang Huanxi, such a smooth and shrewd person, invite trouble for himself?

Not only did he show his amiable side, arranging for the treasures and Spiritual Beasts that Qin Feng needed to be delivered promptly, but he also proactively inquired if Qin Feng had any other needs!

Building relations or even pleasing Qin Feng might not reap immediate benefits, but offending two future Golden Immortals – even if they showed no reaction now – would lead others to find excuses to make things difficult for him later as they grew in power.

After all, Golden Immortals were exceedingly rare. Even in a vast world like Biluo, there were but a few hundred in total. Divided among the Five Domains and overseas, their number seemed even fewer within such an expansive territory.

That's why even a single Immortal at the Immortal Realm could uphold a major sect – Shang Huanxi, merely a True Immortal himself, had been rotating within the True Immortal Realm for ten thousand years; how could he dare to defy the White Bone City Lord's will and offend two fast-rising Masters of Qi Fortune?

Thus, the undertone of his speech carried a hint of flattery.

Qin Feng looked at the twenty or so Demon Beasts of varying sizes before him, genuinely tempted!

The lowest realm among these Demon Beasts was at the Dao Cultivation of the Primordial Spirit Realm, with some even having achieved Demon Immortal.

Particularly, the Dog Demon that possessed the Heavenly Dog Bloodline exuded a formidable aura. According to the cultivators of the White Bone City who captured it, this giant dog could devour mountains and rivers with a mere breath, and its strength was formidable. Were it not for a Heavenly Immortal in the capturing party, it might not have been subdued and could even have caused them harm!

Then there was the large Big Turtle, massive in size with Demon Energy soaring to the skies!

There was also a Money Turtle, not as intimidating as the Big Turtle but with intelligent eyes and a pure aura, said to possess unique Divine Skills!

However, be it Primordial Spirit or Demon Immortal, currently, all had been reduced to their original forms by the cultivators of the White Bone City, lying dejected on the ground, huddled with several other Wild Beasts that cultivated only their original forms and not a human shape, ready for Qin Feng to choose.

With so many Demon Beasts laid out before him, how could Qin Feng be anything but satisfied!

His eyes gleamed with admiration as he stared intently at the Spiritual Beasts before him, nodding in satisfaction, "Daoist Fellow is too modest, if I had to find these Spiritual Beasts myself, who knows how much time it would have taken. White Bone City truly deserves its reputation as one of the Ten Direction Ghost Cities, to be able to capture so many Demon Beasts in such a short time, truly admirable!"

"Hehe, as long as Daoist Fellow Qin is satisfied!"

Shang Huanxi responded with a flattering smile, yet inwardly he was extremely shocked.

Because he noticed that in the mere three days since these two had returned to Biluo, their strength had clearly improved substantially, which provided him with a whole new understanding of the Master of Qi Luck. His heart was filled with both envy and frustration.

Ever since he had become an Immortal, he had bitterly cultivated for ten thousand years without even approaching the threshold of the Heavenly Immortal, while these two had recently drawn the Heavenly Punishment in that Divine Realm as if it were just for refining their True Essence, Soul, and Physical Body through Heavenly Tribulation to forcefully become Immortals!

Now, not much time had passed since they had achieved Immortality, yet their understanding of the Heavenly Dao, their intuition for the Laws seemed already to surpass his own. Their Immortal True Essence was exceptionally profound, and even their Dao Cultivation pressed down upon him. If he didn't witness it with his own eyes, he wouldn't dare to believe it.

Shang Huanxi looked at the two before him, his mouth twitched slightly—he very much wanted to ask how they practiced to improve so quickly.

But sadly, it was merely a thought; he never would dare to ask them outright!

Qin Feng and his companion were unaware of Shang Huanxi's inner thoughts, and even if they knew, they wouldn't care too much.

In fact, even if they told Shang Huanxi their method of cultivation, he wouldn't be able to replicate their path!

Because Shang Huanxi neither had the Golden Apple nor had he resisted the Heavenly Punishment in the Otherworld, let alone had the ability to disperse the Heavenly Punishment and absorb the Power of Laws from the Tribulation Clouds. He didn't have the status of the Master of Qi Luck either, and Biluo Heavenly Dao would not open a special pathway just for him.

Although they had only returned to Biluo for three days, on the first day back, they had already focused their spirit on sensing the Heavenly Dao Laws. Indeed, as Li Miaozhen had once said, the Heavenly Dao treated them as newly promoted Immortals, bestowing upon them all sorts of celestial rewards.

Such privileges were reserved for those favored by the Heavenly Dao, the Masters of Qi Luck, and were not available to common Immortals like Shang Huanxi!

Qin Feng waved his hand, directly collecting these Demon Beasts into the Demon Refining Pot.

With the White Bone City Lord not present and the Nine Nether City Lord stationed at the Space Gate, not participating in the expedition, Qin Feng didn't worry about Shang Huanxi noticing anything unusual about them.

After taking away all the Demon Beasts, Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen openly bid their farewell, declining the offer of Shang Huanxi to escort them with the White Bone Boat, and left Nine Nether Ghost City, flying towards the south.

Now that the two had achieved Immortal Dao, their Escape Techniques were remarkable, covering tens of thousands of miles in a short half-day's effort.

This was still just a common Escape Technique, as they weren't in a rush.

Otherwise, should they really exert full force, the speed could increase by several times at the least.

To not even mention, just the Heavenly Distance Supreme Divine Power that Qin Feng had cultivated under immense pressure previously, once executed, could cross mountains and rivers in one step, covering thousands of miles at an astonishing pace.

However, employing such Supreme Divine Power also consumed a great deal of energy and unless necessary, they, being at the True Immortal Realm, would not easily use such Divine Power.

Unless one was a Golden Immortal Great Power with boundless mana, who would playfully use Supreme Divine Power just for traveling?

After flying for a few more hours, a large mountain appeared in front of them.

With beautiful landscapes and compelling Spiritual Energy!

"Senior Sister, it's getting late, why don't we stop here for the night and continue tomorrow,"

Qin Feng said earnestly as he looked at the setting sun about to fall.

"Hmm, very well!"

Li Miaozhen didn't ask for his reasons and nodded in agreement immediately.

Then the two landed on one of the beautiful mountain peaks. Qin Feng waved his hand to release a loft-style space magical treasure and then extended his hand to cast an illusion technique to conceal the mountaintop before entering the loft with Li Miaozhen.

Of course, Qin Feng suggested staying here not because he had other motives but because there were legitimate matters to attend to.

Their recent breakthroughs had accelerated their cultivation progress too rapidly. After returning to Biluo, they immersed their spirits into the Heavenly Dao to understand the operation of the Heavenly Dao Laws, and while their cultivation surged, they also needed to stabilize their Dao cultivation.

Of course, stabilizing cultivation takes time and is not something that can be completely secured overnight.

So his primary reason was for the sake of his spiritual beasts.

Although they captured many powerful demon beasts in the White Bone City, not all demon beasts were suitable for integration.

Especially the Swallowing Sky Toad, which had already decided on its path of cultivation: focusing on the Space Dao with the Star Dao as a supplement!

Even though the spiritual beasts sent from White Bone City included two powerful Spiritual Toads, Qin Feng had no intention of integrating other Spiritual Toad bloodlines for it. At most, he would take those precious space treasures for it to refine!

Naturally, other than space treasures, it would be best to obtain some treasures containing Star Power. Not to make the two Laws of the Swallowing Sky Toad progress side by side, but at least to allow the Star Dao to play a more significant role.

Compared to the scarcity of space treasures, treasures containing Star Power are not so rare. Although not abundant within the domains, anyone could encounter them if they travelled for a while in the void. If the Swallowing Sky Toad were strong enough, it could even directly consume stars to refine their Star Power!

The precondition is that it can swallow and digest it!

Otherwise, even if it doesn't choke to death, it could burst from overstuffing!

Since he had the space treasures given by the White Bone City Lord, Qin Feng didn't need to worry too much about the Swallowing Sky Toad anymore. With so many space treasures, the Swallowing Sky Toad had enough to grow; it only needed to advance its mastery of the Space Law a step further to become a Demon Immortal, and then it could become a Toad Immortal!

The Spirit Turtle was also fine.

Although this Spirit Turtle was somewhat slippery, Qin Feng would not neglect its strength improvement; moreover, the cultivators from White Bone City had captured several Turtle Demons with various bloodline inheritances and powerful Divine Skills, and even the Big Turtle and the Money Turtle were Demon Immortals in the Turtle Immortal Realm!

As long as it integrates their bloodlines and acquires their bloodline inheritance and Divine Skills, and with the rich Spiritual Energy in the Demon Refining Pot, it wouldn't be difficult to help the Spirit Turtle become an Immortal in the Immortal Dao.

The White Dragon on the third layer of the Demon Refining Pot was somewhat troublesome.

Qin Feng had never helped it integrate the bloodlines of other spiritual beasts, not even those of the same Giant Dragon clan.

This was not because he wanted to keep the White Dragon's bloodline pure, nor because he couldn't obtain other Giant Dragons, regardless of Demon Dragons or dragons of other elements. Whether he went to capture them personally or asked the Sect for help was not an issue.

The key issue was that its power was too special.

The Light Element is a very unique power system, pure and domineering with strong purifying abilities that can't tolerate the mixture of other powers.

Given this, Qin Feng could only let it follow a pure path of Light, and plan to procure some Light Element treasures for it in the future!

As for now, it could only allow this once strongest spiritual beast under his command to take a backseat and watch as the spiritual beasts on the other layers advanced!

The Death Curse Crow on the fourth floor was somewhat of an anomaly.

Although it had fused with the bloodlines of many other crows and acquired numerous divine skills, it had never deviated from its fundamental path of curses. Even the domineering Sun True Fire turned into a flame capable of burning Qi Fortune and containing curse power once inside its body.

Furthermore, although White Bone City had captured two Spiritual Crows of the Demigod Realm this time, one was of the same type that had been fused with the Death Curse Crow by Qin Feng, and the other's abilities were somewhat redundant and its divine skills not outstanding. Hence, Qin Feng did not entertain the idea of fusing it.

To do so would simply waste the Spiritual Energy resources of the Demon Refining Pot for little benefit!

Thus, the advancement of the Death Curse Crow was also postponed. He would wait for a suitable opportunity in the future.

The Undying Qingluan on the fifth floor was rather fortunate—or perhaps it was due to the abundance of Spiritual Birds with the Phoenix Bloodline that made finding corresponding Spiritual Birds for it easier.

Of course, this was also because Qin Feng had relaxed his requirements for the Undying Qingluan.

Before, he only thought of cultivating a pure Divine Bird Qingluan. However, after fusing with the bloodline of a Phoenix from another world and obtaining the talent ability of Bathing Fire Rebirth, cultivating it into a pure-blooded Qingluan was no longer possible.

Therefore, Qin Feng told White Bone City Lord that any Demon Bird with a Phoenix Bloodline would suffice.

Among the Demon Birds sent by White Bone City, there were two with particularly rich Phoenix Bloodlines, one of which even existed in the Demon Immortal Realm, perfect for the Undying Qingluan to fuse with its bloodline and devour its laws, thus advancing to Demon Immortal!

The sixth floor's Hellhound had even fewer problems.

Having initially fused with the Hell Three-Headed Dog and gained the Power of Laws from the Hell Three-Headed Dog, it was already on the brink of advancement but was suppressed by Qin Feng, which delayed its ascension.

Now, after fusing with the Dog Demon, which had a part of the Heavenly Dog Bloodline, there was no need to suppress its realm any longer.

With this part of the Heavenly Dog Bloodline, the Hellhound was bound to master the Cultivation Techniques of the Heavenly Dog Clan with ease, and its future achievements were promising!

The Life Tree on the seventh floor was in an even better state than the Hellhound. Having successively fused with two Innate Spirit Roots—the World Tree and the Golden Apple—its potential was boundless, and it only awaited the complete fusion with the Ancient Tree that incubated the plant god Adonis. Once it awoke, it could ascend through crossing tribulation.

The Ghost-Faced Spider on the eighth floor also had its opportunity. Among the magical creatures brought by the cultivators of White Bone City, there was a rare Fiery Flame Spider.

Living deep within underground volcanoes, with pure and violent inner fire, the fusion would significantly boost the power of its Soul Burning Demon Flame, increasing not only its ability to burn souls but also the damage done to physical bodies.

As for the Spring and Autumn Cicada on the ninth floor, like the third floor's White Dragon and the fourth floor's Death Curse Crow, it was somewhat difficult for Qin Feng to rapidly cultivate and enhance their Dao Cultivation at the current stage.

This was not only because these three creatures were unique and their practiced Laws were relatively rare—a Light Principle nonexistent in Biluo before, a mysterious and unpredictable Curse Technique, and an elusive Time Law.

Qin Feng could still source some Light Element Demon Crystals from his Sect in other worlds for the White Dragon's cultivation. But, artifacts related to Time were much rarer, and he could only wait for future opportunities to obtain them.

As for treasures capable of enhancing curse power, they were even rarer, and Qin Feng had no idea where to find them.

Having no other solution at the moment, he could only attend to the advancement of the other Spiritual Beasts first.

Qin Feng was not worried about these Spiritual Beasts achieving the Immortal God Realm.

Although several of the Spiritual Beasts were not native to this world, they were connected to him through Qi Fortune. Therefore, when the Heavenly Dao brought down its lightning, it would not treat them as Monster invaders from other realms but as normal Heavenly Tribulation!

Thus, before long, a few Spiritual Beasts in his command would undoubtedly enter the Immortal God Realm.
