Return

Wu Tian practiced the Tongyou Spell once in the morning and once in the evening. During the day, he followed the Hunting Team on their hunts, and at night, he rested in Chili Mu's embrace.

Although his current cultivation efficiency was far inferior to Chili Mu's, he didn't slack off at all. He was originally just a White Dog with the talent for Poison Devour, but now he already possessed four great talents.

As time passed, with the help of the System Panel, his talents would surely increase, becoming more and more wondrous.

One day, he would be able to catch up to those Spiritual children and Monsters with extraordinary talents.

Unknowingly, more than a month had passed. Chili Mu's cultivation progress was simply astonishing, advancing by leaps and bounds. She could now cultivate for an entire hour continuously. Every time she cultivated, crimson mist would surround her body, and flames would burn fiercely, creating an awe-inspiring phenomenon.

However, Wu Tian's progress with the Tongyou Spell was very slow. In over a month, he had only reached 8%. It was foreseeable that the further he progressed, the slower his cultivation speed for the Tongyou Spell would become.

"I'm afraid it will take me at least a year, or even two, to barely cultivate the Tongyou Spell to completion and awaken new talents."

He sighed inwardly, increasingly feeling the vast difference in talents. Chili Mu's cultivation speed had been astonishingly fast since she started.

He could roughly sense that Chili Mu's current progress was at least over fifty percent.

Perhaps in another month, she would be able to cultivate this spell to completion and forge the Tongyou Qi.

Wu Tian glanced at Chili Mu, who was still cultivating beside him, and slowly stopped his own movements. After more than a month of training, his cultivation time had only extended by a dozen breaths each session.

"Fortunately, my progress in other areas hasn't stagnated. In fact, due to the Tongyou Spell, my Qi Eater talent has progressed much faster."

With a thought, he opened the System Panel.

Name: Wu Tian Age: 3 Bloodline: Southern Border White Dog Talents: Immunity to All Poisons 3% (Intermediate), Thousand Mile Divine Speed 5% (Intermediate), Spirit of Wind 72% (Beginner), Qi Eater 96% (Beginner) Skills: Hunting 100%, Listening to the Wind 100%, Nine Forms of Snake Slaying 100%, Tongyou Spell 8%

To improve the Spirit of Wind talent, one needed to wander through the jungle, using the wind to perceive the ubiquitous information and detect danger in advance.

This was one of the reasons Wu Tian insisted on entering the jungle with the Hunting Team every day. It wasn't just to help the village obtain food; the dangerous, wild jungle was very beneficial for his growth.

"Once talents reach the intermediate level, progress becomes increasingly slow. Especially Immunity to All Poisons; ordinary poisons are useless against me. Only the venom of the Jade Centipede can continue to grow my talent."

"Fortunately, the Thousand Mile Divine Speed talent only needs running to improve. I expend my stamina every day, traversing the mountains and forests, and I've finally seen some results."

Wu Tian organized his current talents. "The Spirit of Wind becomes harder and harder to cultivate as it progresses. These remaining percentages will likely take several more months to reach completion."

However, he had a vague premonition that after the Spirit of Wind reached completion, it might very well manifest the legendary talent of "Averting Misfortune and Seeking Good Fortune." Even if it took more time and effort, it would be worth it.

"The Qi Eater talent was also slow to improve initially, but cultivating it alongside the Tongyou Spell has actually accelerated its progress."

"In a few more days, this talent should be able to advance."

Wu Tian looked at Chili Mu cultivating beside him. Although he had exited the Qi Eater state and couldn't perceive the wondrous phenomena of the little girl cultivating, his keen senses and the Spirit of Wind allowed him to detect her blazing aura.

"I wonder how much of Chili Mu's progress I can match after my Qi Eater talent advances?"

He didn't believe that his Qi Eater talent, after advancing, could directly rival Chili Mu's. The progress she displayed was truly terrifying; this was definitely not the aptitude of an ordinary person.

"I wonder if everyone with an Immortal root is this terrifying, or if Chili Mu's talent is exceptionally outstanding?"

Chili Mu sat cross-legged, a faint, lustrous sheen on her delicate, fair face. She chanted the Tongyou Spell. As this spell became more profound with cultivation, the booming sounds it emitted actually grew quieter.

When cultivated to completion, its sound would completely disappear, like the whispers of ghosts and gods, inaudible to mortals, capable of communicating with Yin and Yang and conversing with spirits.

Wu Tian shook his fur and, without disturbing the little girl's cultivation, slowly walked towards the door.

However, as he stepped out of the bamboo building, he saw a black wind streaking across the sky at an incredibly terrifying speed.

"Man Xiongmu is back."

His movements paused. "Man Xiongmu is back this time, and he'll probably take Chili Mu up the mountain."

Various thoughts flashed through Wu Tian's mind. He wanted to go up the mountain with Chili Mu. The resources the village could provide him were becoming fewer and fewer. Only by going to Skull Mountain could he obtain more opportunities.

"Given Chili Mu's feelings and dependence on me, she'll definitely want to take me with her. But will Man Xiongmu agree?"

He was a little unsure. He had pondered this matter during this time. Whether he could go up the mountain didn't depend on him or Chili Mu; only Man Xiongmu's consent mattered.

"I hope I can successfully go up the mountain..."

Wu Tian was also a little anxious. Although he could continue to improve by staying in the village, and the Tongyou Spell still needed one or two years to reach completion, once Chili Mu went up the mountain, his chances of going up later would become extremely slim.

Even if Chili Mu had a good relationship with him now, people always grew up. After she cultivated on the mountain for decades, who could say what would happen in the future?

Wu Tian didn't want to give up this most likely opportunity.

He quickly ran towards the center of the village. With his Thousand Mile Divine Speed talent, his speed was incredibly fast, like a flash of white light. He soon arrived in front of the Bronze Ancient Cauldron.

The members of the Hunting Team had already arrived and were waiting for him.

Wu Tian's current status in the Hunting Team was special. Because of his existence, the Hunting Team had encountered less danger in the mountains, and they were able to hunt more prey.

Even the Dog King, Silver Frost, was far inferior to him now!

"Haha, White Dragon is here, we can set off," Guxiong Mu said with a hearty laugh.

"Woof woof woof!"

Wu Tian barked a few times at Silver Frost, then barked wildly at the sky.

Guxiong Mu looked up and saw a black wind descending from the sky, landing right in the village, at the location of the Chieftain's bamboo building.

He glanced at Wu Tian, who was restless, and seemed to understand White Dragon's meaning. He couldn't help but laugh, "You little guy, you want to go see the Envoy, don't you? You're quite clever."

After a moment of thought, he said, "The Man Xiong Envoy is probably back to take Chili Mu away. It'll be hard for you two to see each other again."

"Don't go hunting with us today. Go back and see Chili Mu off!"

Guxiong Mu knew White Dragon was spiritual and could understand him. After giving the instructions, he immediately called the others in the Hunting Team to set off.

Wu Tian barked twice at Silver Frost, reminding them to be careful, then ran quickly towards the bamboo building where Chili Mu was.

"I must seize this opportunity to climb Skull Mountain this time!"
