Twin Spirit Bodies Show Their Power
Ling Chengxia waved his hand, and he and Ling Wanduo each took out a Flying Magical Item and flew towards the nearest Demon Beast Island in the east, which was more than a mile away.
Before long, Ling Chengxia and his companion arrived at the Demon Beast Island that was shrouded by a second-order magic array.
The two then used the Demon Beast Token given to them by Ling Pengyun to create small openings in the magic array, enter the array, and land on the Demon Beast Island.
Upon entering the island, the two heard the roars of Demon Beast coming from all over the island.
In addition, the two also observed that some low hills, forests, and peaks on the island were shrouded by smaller enemy-trapping light curtains.
The sounds of Demon Beast emanating from within the island came from those Small Enemy-Trapping Light Barrier.
Seeing this, Ling Chengxia and the other person could easily guess that the Small Enemy-Trapping Light Barrier were imprisoning Demon Beast.
They then headed toward the nearest low hill shrouded in Small Enemy-Trapping Light Barrier.
As they expected, Demon Beast was indeed imprisoned within the low mountain shrouded in the Small Enemy-Trapping Light Barrier.
However, the burly, yellow-haired bear Demon Cultivator imprisoned within this low mountain was not very powerful, only at the Qi Training Third Layer, belonging to the Early-Stage Qi Training.
Seeing this, Ling Wanduo originally planned to leave this place with Ling Chengxia to find a suitable Demon Beast of the same level to kill.
However, Ling Chengxia stopped him. Then, Ling Chengxia took out a Beast Taming Pouch that was half red and half blue from his bosom and summoned the four golden-scaled Golden Scale Python that had Twin Spirit Body, were three feet long, had arms as thick as their arms, and were covered with solid golden scales.
Although these four Golden Scale Python are not very old, thanks to the assistance of their powerful Twin Spirit Body and the availability of enough Demon Beast meat, their cultivation has now all broken through to the Qi Refinement Realm.
Moreover, the Golden Scale Python with the strongest innate aptitude had already reached the Qi Training Second Layer.
The other three Golden Scale Python, whose innate aptitude was slightly weaker, had also reached the peak of the Qi Refining First Layer, just one step away from the Qi Training Second Layer.
"Jin Da, take your three remaining brothers into that low mountain and kill that yellow bear at the Qi Training Third Layer."
"If it works, the flesh and blood from this Yellow-Furred Bear Demon at the Qi Training Third Layer will be your treat."
"And if it fails, your rations will be deducted for the next three days."
Ling Chengxia sternly instructed the Golden Scale Python among the four Golden Scale Python, whose cultivation level was the highest, reaching the Qi Training Second Layer.
Ling Chengxia named the four Golden Scale Python Jin Da, Jin Er, Jin San, and Jin Si respectively, so that they could be easily distinguished.
Ling Chengxia had placed Divine Sense imprint on the bodies of all four Golden Scale Python, and through this Divine Sense, the four Golden Scale Python understood what Ling Chengxia was saying.
They gazed at the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon at the Qi Training Third Layer location within the low mountain in front of them, and their eyes gradually revealed four parts bloodlust, three parts fierce fighting spirit, and three parts solemnity.
Although the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon's cultivation was higher than that of the four snakes, the four snakes were also somewhat confident in their own strength.
Moreover, they don't want to go hungry for the next three days, nor do they want to miss this opportunity for an extra meal.
They immediately conveyed their agreement to their Master, Ling Chengxia.
Ling Chengxia followed suit, using the Demon Beast Token on her body to tear open a hole the size of a human head in the Small Enemy-Trapping Light Barrier that enveloped the low mountain in front of her.
The four Golden Scale Python quickly followed the opening in the array and entered the low mountain shrouded by the array's light curtain.
Upon seeing this, the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon at the Qi Training Third Layer inside the mountain had an intense longing gleam in its eyes.
There were no other creatures in the low mountain where it lived. Since Ling Pengyun borrowed it to live in the low mountain using an array a year ago, it has only been fed once a month at the end of the month.
And each time it was fed, the food was extremely small, not enough to fill its stomach, and it could barely stay alive.
Now, seeing the four Golden Scale Python at the first and second levels of Qi Refining break through the formation and enter the mountain, it already imagined killing them and eating their delicious flesh and blood.
It roared excitedly, and the fur on its body flashed with a yellow light, becoming much stronger.
Then, it charged fiercely at the four Golden Scale Python that were attacking it.
Perhaps it was because of the desire in its heart that this Yellow-Furred Bear Demon suddenly became one or two fractions faster than usual, and was not much slower than the four Golden Scale Python.
Upon seeing this, "Jin Da," the one with the highest innate talent and cultivation level of the four Golden Scale Python who had reached the Qi Training Second Layer Refining, immediately used the telepathic communication technique attached to his Twin Spirit Body to convey the idea of splitting up to his other three brothers.
Upon hearing the message, the other three Golden Scale Python immediately complied and dispersed.
Jin Da, on the other hand, continued to face the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon charging towards him.
The Yellow-Furred Bear Demon was already blinded by hunger. It had lost its reason and completely ignored the three Golden Scale Python that had circled around to its other three directions. Suddenly, it leaped and swung its powerful claws, each the size of a human head, at the Jin Da directly in front of it.
But Jin Da reacted extremely quickly. It used its strength to move to the side and dodge the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon's fierce attack.
Moreover, in an instant, it transformed into a golden light and shadow, quickly climbing onto the bear demon's head. Using its slender body, which contained nearly a thousand pounds of strength, it wrapped around the bear's neck, constantly exerting force, trying to break its neck.
In a short while, a cracking sound came from the bear demon's neck.
At this moment, the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon also felt a suffocating sensation coming from his neck.
It roared in pain and swung its claws, slamming them hard against the Jin Da scales wrapped around its neck, creating a clanging sound.
However, the scales on Jin Da's body were quite sturdy, and they managed to block the attack.
However, although the attack was blocked, the immense force from the slap of those claws still made Jin Da feel quite uncomfortable.
It let out a mournful cry.
Upon hearing this sound, the three Golden Scale Python that were attacking the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon from other places immediately turned furious.
As they crawled, they all opened their mouths, gathering specks of golden spiritual light, which together transformed into three golden flying knives that were launched.
The three golden throwing knives were extremely fast, and the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon was focused on the Golden Scale Python named "Jin Da" wrapped around its neck, so it did not notice the three golden throwing knives for the time being.
As a result, the three golden flying knives struck its claws squarely.
The fur on its claws was extremely tough, and the three golden throwing knives could not pierce through the fur to sever its claws.
However, the combined force of the three golden throwing knives was enough to barely push back the bear demon's claws.
The other three Golden Scale Python, at the peak of the Qi Refining First Layer, also took this opportunity to transform into three golden light shadows, using their bodies to wrap around the bear demon's claws, trapping them.
Although these three Golden Scale Python were not highly skilled, their physiques, enhanced by their Twin Spirit Body, were no weaker than the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon at the Qi Training Third Layer.
Even if the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon exerted its strength, it would be difficult to get rid of the three Golden Scale Python wrapped around its claws in a short time.
Meanwhile, Jin Da, which was wrapped around its neck, took this opportunity to unleash a Giant Strength Technique, doubling its strength to two thousand jin.
Even if the bear demon's neck bones were incredibly strong, it couldn't hold out for long.
In just ten breaths, Jin Da Qi Training Second Layer, used his immense strength to snap the bear demon's neck.
As a result, the bear demon gradually lost its life force.
Upon seeing this, Jin Da and the other three Golden Scale Python all showed joy.
Three breaths later, as the bear demon's life force dissipated into smoke, they frantically tore at the bear demon's tough fur.
It must be said that the bear demon's fur was quite tough. It took Jin Da and the other four Golden Scale Python more than ten breaths to tear open its fur and bite into the bear demon's flesh.
They then began to savor the flesh and blood of the bear demon, whose cultivation was higher than their own and had reached the Qi Training Third Layer.
Outside the low mountain, Ling Wanduo stared in astonishment at the four Golden Scale Python that were crawling on the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon and devouring its flesh and blood inside the low mountain, his mind racing with thoughts.
"Even I would have a headache if I encountered that powerful Qi Training Third Layer Yellow-Furred Bear Demon. I never expected that Cheng Xia's four Golden Scale Python, which were only at the Qi Refining Level 1 or 2, would be so strong. They actually managed to kill that Yellow-Furred Bear Demon by working together despite being at a higher level."
"Could it be that the four Golden Scale Python, whose strength surpasses that of Demon Beast of the same rank, possess a powerful bloodline? Perhaps they exhibit signs of reversion to their ancestral form?"
Although he wondered why the four Golden Scale Python were so powerful, he dared not say a word.
This is a private matter, and asking too many questions would easily offend Ling Chengxia.
Therefore, he simply offered Ling Chengxia a word of congratulations.
"Congratulations to Cheng Xia for his four Golden Scale Python that managed to kill that Yellow-Furred Bear Demon despite being of a higher level."
"Once those four Golden Scale Python improve their cultivation, they will definitely become your help, Cheng Xia."
"This is something that I, your nephew, truly envy."
Upon hearing this, Ling Chengxia felt a sense of pride. He laughed twice and then said with a smile.
"Haha, Wan Duo, you're exaggerating. It was really lucky that my four Golden Scale Python killed that bear demon. There are still two Demon Beast cubs with excellent innate aptitude that have reached the Qi Refinement Realm on the Lineage's specially kept Spirit Beast Island, and no one has come to exchange them."
"Some time ago, my parents told me that they had recently captured a lot of Demon Beast cubs, Demon Beast eggs, and Demon Beast larvae and put them on Spirit Beast Island."
"It seems there are some with good potential among these young Demon Beast. If you also want to tame one or more Spirit Beast, you can go to Spirit Beast Island when you have Wan Duo."
His words actually quite appealed to Ling Wanduo.
First, the battle merits he earned two years ago from following Ling Pengyun and slaying the enormous Demon Beast of the Swamp Giant Crocodile Clan are still intact, and the treatment in the War Hall is extremely good. It can be said that he is now very wealthy.
His accumulated battle merits were enough to support his cultivation for three or four years.
With such abundant wealth, it wouldn't be a problem for him to allocate some resources to cultivate a Spirit Beast as a future asset.
"I'll go check it out after this trip to the Demon Beast Island," Ling Wanduo replied.
Ling Chengxia nodded slightly, then, relying on the token in her hand inscribed with the words "Demon Beast," she opened a large opening in the magic array covering the low mountain, entered it, and put the four Golden Scale Python along with the corpse of the Yellow-Furred Bear Demon at the Qi Training Third Layer Refining into her Beast Taming Pouch.
Afterwards, he and Ling Wanduo went elsewhere to find suitable Demon Beast to kill.
