When Qin Yi woke up groggily, he vaguely saw a figure bouncing a ball in front of him.

When the haze disappeared and things cleared up, all that could be seen was a Little Ghost bouncing a ball.

Qin Yi shook his head and chuckled, "How come the first thing I see when I wake up is you bullying the dog?"

Liusu snorted, "This dog's gotten too cocky. It ate half of the Jianmu Silent Spirit and became one of the Three Great Kings, and now it's all arrogant. If we don't teach it a lesson, it'll forget its place!"

Qin Yi thought the prefix "dog" sounded really cool.

The Silent Spirit of half a Jianmu tree possesses formidable soul power; even if Gouzi can only convert a portion, it would likely be enough for it to recover to the early stage of the Formless Realm. It has also become one of the de facto rulers of the sea, ranking quite high. Neither Qiu Niu nor Baxia seem like power-hungry individuals; perhaps Gouzi will be the loudest voice in the sea in the future.

It seems we can't treat them like a football anymore...

Seeing the dog bouncing around after being slapped, looking like it was on its last legs, Qin Yi couldn't help but ask, "How long have I been meditating? Has it only been a few days?"

"Twenty-one days," Liusu said. "Your meditation this time is going to take about that long. How much shorter would you like to shorten it?"

"Has the dog still not finished digesting after 21 days?"

"All digested?" Liusu finally kicked the ball away. "Does digesting mean you can beat me?"

Qin Yi: "..."

"Thump!" The dog crashed into the ground and lay there motionless like a dead dog.

Judging by its appearance, it must have been ravaged terribly these past few days... Qin Yi strongly suspected that once it finished digesting, it would likely storm in and challenge Liusu to a fight, and then this would happen...

Looking at the nonchalant Little Ghost in front of him, Qin Yi made a sound as if he had seen Baxia: "Turtle..."

Liusu rubbed its sleepy eyes; it was still drowsy. "This damn dog still has the ability to protect you. I'm going to sleep now."

Qin Yi said softly, "You stayed up all night to protect me?"

Liusu Su snorted, "I was going to sleep the other day, but this damn dog came looking for me to fight. Does he really think I, Liusu, can't lift a stick?"

Qin Yi was both amused and exasperated.

Liusu suddenly became happy. "Perfect, I'll give you something good first before you go to sleep."

Qin Yi asked curiously, "What is that?"

"It's Chaofeng's wings," Liusu said. "I've transformed them into a Law Treasure that can be integrated into your body. From now on, you can fly by flapping your wings, covering a thousand miles in a single flight. It's faster than an airship and much more maneuverable."

As she spoke, Liusu happily jumped behind Qin Yi and pressed a pair of ear-sized wings onto him. The wings emitted a soft light and quickly merged into Qin Yi's back.

Qin Yi shrugged. At first, he felt something extra on his bones, which was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it after a while and hardly felt anything unusual in his body.

He tried to make a mental effort.

The roc spread its wings, and with a great wind and thunder, it appeared a thousand miles away in an instant.

The structure of the word "mocking the wind" is similar to that of "mocking the moon"... From this perspective, the wings of "mocking the wind" can mock the speed of the wind.

Qin Yi stopped, feeling an uncontrollable momentum, and was inevitably shocked.

This is almost like teleportation. Most Qian Yuan cultivators don't have this speed, and it requires almost no Law Power... It can be said that with this item, as long as one wants to run away, few people can stop him.

Their escape capabilities and mobility have increased many times over.

In addition, I also felt that I had gained more wind energy within my body.

His original elemental cultivation was Fire Element, which was relatively simple. Now, with the addition of wind elemental power, regardless of whether he uses wind-based Technique Method, the wind alone can amplify the damage and range of his flames, making his Gang Qi more violent and his movements faster.

This is a magical Law Treasure forged from the body of Chaofeng, the Dragon Son has reached the pinnacle of the Qian Yuan realm...

It is a top-tier treasure that is extremely rare in the world.

Qin Yi stood there in the mist, looking back. In the distance, the Little Ghost was waving at him. "You look quite good like this."

Qin Yi could see the pair of wings, each several meters long, with the color of a roc's wings. Due to his Phoenix Fire, there was also a hidden flow of firelight on the feather patterns, making it look very cool.

His mind raced again, and he returned to Liusu's side. "Why did you think of taking its wings for me?"

"Hmm..." Liusu looked up and thought for a moment, "You seemed to have said before that you wanted to have a pair of wings. I saw that Chao Feng's running speed was quite impressive. So many people almost couldn't stop it, so I remembered it."

Qin Yi had completely forgotten when he had ever said he wanted wings... Even with his current powerful Divine Sense and memory, it was difficult for him to recall. Even if he had said it, it was likely an unintentional remark from over a decade ago. He thought for a long time before finally finding that sentence in a corner of his memory.

It seems that Ye Ling said her wings were ugly at the time.

I casually comforted myself, saying it was really cool, and I wish I had a pair of wings like that.

So, is that why the sticky record is still around today?

Liusu herself didn't think much of it; her soul was almost never forgetful, and she didn't feel it was a big deal that he would recall her unintentional remark during the battle. Seeing Qin Yi's dazed look, she curiously circled Qin Yi twice and said disdainfully, "You idiot. Take out your prayer beads."

"Ah?"

"Your prayer beads are nice, but the string is no good." Liusu sighed and patted his shoulder. "These prayer beads are probably the most frequently used among all your Law Treasure. Don't you even think about upgrading them? What's wrong with this kid? He's such a worry."

Qin Yi's lips twitched, and he took out the Buddhist prayer beads.

With a clatter, Liusu Su threaded the Dragon Tendon inside, saying, "Don't rush to touch that one spark of Chaos Fire in the Pixiu ring; it's not suitable now. Study the other things slowly on your own. There are quite a few good items, and some of the materials can be used to upgrade Buddhist beads. With your current knowledge, you can judge for yourself."

Qin Yi completely ignored his Buddhist prayer beads and asked, "The Chaos Fire, is it what you need to refine your body?"

"It's only used during the final forging and refining. It would be best if you had a spark, but this one spark of Chaos Fire isn't a spark... at most it's just a tiny spark. It's obviously a tool that the Heavenly Being used to sabotage him. It won't be easy for him to use it."

"So how do we make use of it?"

Liusu Su grinned, "A single spark can start a prairie fire. With just this little spark, there's bound to be an opportunity to expand. We'll talk about that later."

It's clear that Liusu is in a good mood. The Jian Mu Fruit it needed, is basically secured; all that's left is to wait for the result. The unexpected appearance of Chaos Starfire has also given something that was previously completely uncertain a clear direction – a truly delightful surprise.

"I'm going to sleep." Liusu darted into the ring and hid inside the Wolf Tooth Club, quickly falling asleep without a sound.

Qin Yi looked down at the Buddhist beads in his hand, which had evolved into the shape of the Immortal Binding Rope, and remained silent for a moment.

The dog, which had been playing dead, finally got up, whimpering, "This old man..."

Upon looking up and seeing Qin Yi turn to look at her, she immediately changed her words: "This Little Ghost is so cute."

"Mmm." Qin Yi nodded vigorously.

Dog swallowed his tears and slowly said, "You can move the things from your broken ring to the Pixiu ring."

Qin Yi picked up the Pixiu ring and examined it for a while. "What are the benefits?"

The dog sighed, "Before, if you didn't want to put a restriction on your ring, it would be inconvenient for Liusu and me to come and go, because the conventional method of imprinting with Divine Sense would cause the ring to only open and close according to your thoughts. But now that this is a guardian spirit, it's different. You can give this spirit commands so that it can also allow people you designate to come and go."

If an outsider were to overhear this, they would probably be speechless.

The most important aspects of a ring, such as its protective and concealing capabilities and its size, are secondary; the most crucial factor is ease of entry and exit...

Is this a Storage Ring or a nest?

Qin Yi finally probed the ring with his Divine Sense. Originally, he didn't have many requirements for the ring. The ring he had was obtained with Minghe in the tomb of the Gu Song Layman. The Gu Song Layman was a Huiyang cultivator, and the space of a Huiyang-level ring was large enough. As for his belongings, apart from Spirit Stone and medicines, he had very few other things. His airship was also very strange; it looked very large, but it didn't take up much space.

I still can't fill up my Huiyang ring. I've never thought about replacing it in over a decade, thinking it would last forever.

Upon probing with his Divine Sense, he realized that he was originally... a frog in a well.
