The mastery of the Bloody Dragon-shaped Body brought about significant changes for Shen Mo; he was now a cultivator of both spiritual techniques and physical conditioning.
For the better part of the next month, he spent his time consolidating and adjusting to these changes.
In his spare time, he continued his regular alchemy and talisman-crafting practices.
The Spirit Storage Rat, as agreed, came every day for its share of meat.
At the same time, it would also bring a gift as a reciprocal gesture.
Sometimes, it brought Dark Crystal Ore.
Other times, it brought low-class wild Spirit Fruits from the forest.
Occasionally, it would bring back a sun-dried demonic beast corpse.
Sometimes, it even managed to find a piece of Spirit Stone somewhere and eagerly trotted over to present its gift, seeking praise.
However, gifts as precious as the jade slip of the 'Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body' never appeared again.
Shen Mo, however, was content with this.
