Time flew like a white steed, and a year and a half passed in the blink of an eye.
"It's almost time now; I can definitely deal with that annoying Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear."
After a year and a half, Xu Yiling had long since reached level twenty, but he had been holding back from acquiring a spirit ring.
After all, once he acquired a spirit ring, he would surpass level twenty and wouldn't be able to stay in Zone E, thus wasting the reward from the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear—a BOSS-level Spirit Beast, which would surely yield excellent rewards.
Currently, Xu Yiling's spirit power is level twenty, and his Yan Huang Bloodline integration has reached 12%. Increasing bloodline integration is incredibly difficult, requiring too much energy and time, so he can only proceed slowly.
Furthermore, Xu Yiling's physique, vitality, and mental force have improved significantly over the past year and a half, because after Xu Yiling's spirit power reached level twenty, spirit power light clusters would no longer appear; all would be physique and mental force light clusters.
Xu Yiling's current physique is definitely capable of absorbing a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, and his mental force is sufficient to withstand soul shock; the accumulation during these days was not wasted.
And the age limit of his first spirit ring and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw right palm bone has also increased to 7000 years.
Xu Yiling discovered that not only does killing the first Spirit Beast in each template guarantee a light cluster, but also, after receiving too many rewards, they gradually decrease.
For example, now, the number of light clusters Xu Yiling obtains is getting smaller, and the age limit of spirit rings and Spirit Bones is also decreasing; the same applies to vitality and mental force, so he must immediately go to Zone D to obtain more rewards.
"Junior Brother, what are you doing today?"
As Hu Liena grew older, she became increasingly radiant and captivating; a blink of her foxy eyes could make anyone fall deeply for her.
Cultivating beside Xu Yiling, Hu Liena's spirit power improved rapidly, reaching level twenty-nine.
(The higher the spirit power, the slower the progression; the Yan Huang Bloodline only boosts spirit power gained from cultivation, not from Spirit Bones or spirit rings.)
She far surpassed Xie Yue and Yan.
"Just going out for a stroll."
"I'll go too."
"Alright."
Hu Liena and Xu Yiling's favorability has also reached 85 points, getting closer to 90.
As for Evil Teacher Bibi Dong, her favorability has already reached 90 points, but unfortunately, the Hunting Beast Space has a rule that Spirit Masters entering it cannot exceed the maximum spirit power level of the Hunting Beast Space area Xu Yiling is in.
In other words, since Xu Yiling is in Zone E, the highest level Spirit Master who can enter is only level twenty.
Otherwise, Xu Yiling would have had a super helper long ago.
What made Xu Yiling uncomfortable was that the teacher-student relationship had become extremely distorted; every time Evil Teacher would make him very uncomfortable, but he was still young and completely incapable of doing anything, leaving him in a frustrating state—truly hateful!
The two arrived in Spirit City.
Due to the expansion of Spirit Hall's commercial Empire in recent years, Spirit Hall's overall strength has risen a notch, so Spirit City is extremely safe, and no one dares to act presumptuously here.
Walking on the road, Xu Yiling suddenly felt a gaze on him and abruptly looked over.
It was a woman covered in purplish-black scales, which didn't look like special clothing but rather seemed to be naturally occurring scales. She had a slender figure, full breasts, straight and long thighs, and above her chest, her shoulders revealed fair skin and a deep cleavage.
Long purplish-black hair cascaded behind her, swaying naturally without wind, flowing from both sides of her body. Her delicate face was extremely enchanting, her eyes were deep purple, and her lips were bright purple.
On her forehead, a pitch-black scale shimmered with layers of purple halos, naturally flowing over the top of her head.
"I've finally waited for you."
Zi Ji pursed her lips, seeing Xu Yiling, she was extremely excited, even feeling some other strange sensations; this little one is truly handsome.
"This woman, this appearance, these scales on her forehead, could it be..."
Xu Yiling's pupils suddenly contracted.
Why was she staring at him?
"Nana, I want a candied hawthorn, go buy one for me."
"Got it."
Seeing Hu Liena trot away, Xu Yiling took a deep breath to calm himself, hoping there was no danger.
At least, Xu Yiling's powerful mental force did not sense any threat from her.
"little one, you are very interesting."
Zi Ji smiled as she saw Xu Yiling approach.
"Are you Zi Ji?"
"You know me?"
Zi Ji was a little surprised; how long had it been since she last appeared outside?
"Ancient texts have mentioned the Ten Great Fierce Beasts, and you are one of them."
When in doubt, it's always ancient texts; after all, I read a lot.
"That's right, I am Zi Ji. Although I don't know how you recognized my human form, it doesn't matter."
Zi Ji couldn't help but rub Xu Yiling's orange-red long hair; it felt so good.
Xu Yiling was stunned, could his succubus physique also be effective on Spirit Beasts? Is it that appealing?
And Zi Ji's entire body exuded a wild charm. Although she didn't have the naturally seductive aura of Evil Teacher, she was very attractive.
"I have something to discuss with you, let's find a place to talk."
"Okay."
The two sat down at a nearby tea stall.
"You were looking for me?"
"That's right." Zi Ji nodded and continued, "About a year ago, you appeared in the Star Dou Great Forest, and at that time, a portion of our Soul Beast Clan's destiny entered your body."
"The Soul Beast Clan's destiny? Did your master say that?"
Upon hearing this, Zi Ji's eyes suddenly turned sharp, as if she wanted to slice Xu Yiling into a thousand pieces.
Xu Yiling secretly thought, 'Oh no, I spoke too much; if Zi Ji makes a move, I'm dead for sure.'
"Is this also something you read in ancient texts?"
"Uh... cough cough."
"Alright, I'll come clean. I am the successor of the Destruction God King."
"What!"
Zi Ji exclaimed, almost standing up.
"Don't worry, it's not Asura God, what are you afraid of?"
Zi Ji frowned. Although other God Kings, apart from Asura God, didn't show too much animosity towards the Soul Beast Clan, she didn't relax because of that.
"Let's continue talking about the destiny matter from before."
Xu Yiling immediately changed the subject.
"Okay, did anything happen when you were in the Star Dou Great Forest?"
Zi Ji felt that the matter of the Destruction God King needed to be discussed with her master; it wasn't something she could handle alone.
"Star Dou Great Forest."
Xu Yiling murmured to himself; at that time, the most likely event was the awakening of his bloodline.
After a moment of thought, Xu Yiling decided to tell Zi Ji.
He possessed the inheritance of the Destruction God King, Gu Yuena wouldn't deal with him, and he also had such a powerful bloodline that was beneficial to Spirit Beasts, making him the best partner for the Soul Beast Clan.
With the help of the Soul Beast Clan, he would definitely be able to become a god faster, and perhaps even gain a few Spirit Beast girlfriends—wouldn't that be exciting?
Anyway, he would eventually have to confront Asura God, so helping the Soul Beast Clan was fine. With the help of the Destruction God King in the God Realm, it was best for him to quickly improve his strength on Douluo Star.
Kill Asura God!
He told Zi Ji about his Yan Huang Bloodline.
Zi Ji was completely taken aback; how could such a terrifying bloodline appear in a human? Is this reasonable?
This was even more auspicious than a Rui Beast.
A human Rui Beast?
"Don't worry, I have no ill will towards Spirit Beasts. Go back and tell your master that we can cooperate. You help me become a god, and I will deal with Asura God in the God Realm to lift the restrictions on the Soul Beast Clan."
"I will go back and tell her."
Zi Ji understood that this little one was no ordinary person; cooperation carried risks, but the rewards upon success would be great.
"I'm leaving."
"Next time you come, bring Bi Ji with you."
