He set out with his family for another fight and found Yang Cheng and Lin Xian already waiting at the destination with a tent and cooking gear.

• Ye Fei sent Little Fox and Eclipse Moon to deal with the pack while he led Little Deer out of the tent and Big Dog ran after them.

Feng An increased the danger of Ye Fei’s beast trial because he wanted to push Ye Fei to grow and amuse himself. Ye Fei faced ten beasts at once, determined to protect his companions and survive.

• Yang Cheng explained that the group had set up a tent because they had not rested, and Feng An agreed to send them fewer beasts later.

• Ye Fei used his talent to shoot beasts accurately, replenished his spiritual energy, and kept working despite the strain.
• Little White Tiger carried beast corpses to Ye Fei, who processed them into materials and calculated the Survival Points they could earn.
• Eclipse Moon caught and killed a mutated rabbit, prompting Ye Fei to reason that wild beasts’ combat power reflected their strongest attributes rather than their overall ability.
• Ye Fei continued protecting his pets by shooting dangerous beasts as they arrived.
• Feng An called a half-hour lunch break, and Yang Cheng and Lin Xian came over to rest.
• Ye Fei served roasted meat, and Yang Cheng grew uneasy about what it might be; Feng An ate without concern.

Ye Fei and his companions spent the afternoon fighting beasts under Feng An’s supervision, then returned home exhausted. A pack of wild wolves gathered at Ye Fei’s courtyard, where Little Deer trapped them in an illusion and Ye Fei prepared to fight.

• Feng An left orange-quality Roasted Snake Segments for Ye Fei and the others before flying away.
• Ye Fei, Yang Cheng, and Lin Xian resumed clearing beasts at twelve thirty, with Ye Fei fighting one at a time and using Spirit-Restoring Pellets.
• Feng An ended the hunt at five thirty, and the exhausted men returned to their homes.
• Ye Fei found wild wolves prowling around his home and jumped into his courtyard with the little ones as more wolves gathered outside.
• After the little ones ate, Little Fox, Feng Bai, and Eclipse Moon charged the wolves while Little Deer trapped the pack in a Snow Mountain Maze Illusion.
• Ye Fei aimed his purple-grade Wind Spirit Repeating Crossbow at the wolf leaders, ready to let off steam by fighting them.

Ye Fei went to bed expecting the Wild Wolf King’s pack to attack, but his little ones defeated the Wolf King while he slept. He woke to collect the valuable wolf remains and learned the wolves had been fighting over the Wolf King’s inner core.

• After the wild wolf pack assault upgraded, Ye Fei told his companions to rest and prepared to handle the Wild Wolf King if it appeared.
• Ye Fei processed the wolf bodies, expanded his sales slots, and converted Little Deer’s herb field into a low-level spirit field before going to sleep.
• Eclipse Moon pushed Ye Fei awake after he slept through the night’s fighting and the approaching despawn countdown on the wolf bodies.
• Little Fox showed Ye Fei the wolf bodies, explaining they were valuable materials that needed to be collected.
• Feng Bai had torn apart the Wild Wolf King, while Phantom Spirit pinned down its inner core and kept the remaining wolves from reaching it.

Ye Fei finished processing the Wild Wolf corpses and earned the achievement for destroying the Wild Wolf Pack, then absorbed its spiritual-energy reward. Feng An visited while Ye Fei cultivated and left without disturbing him, and Ye Fei prepared to take his companions out to fight again.

• Ye Fei processed hundreds of Wild Wolf corpses while his companions watched for more wolves, then put away the Wild Wolf King's inner core as its despawn timer ran out.
• The Wild Wolf Pack destruction achievement rewarded Ye Fei 5,000 Survival Points and 1,000 Selectable Energy Orbs, which he chose to absorb as spiritual energy.
• While Ye Fei cultivated beneath the Phoenix Tree, Feng An visited and asked Little Fox whether Ye Fei could still join that day's activity.
• Feng An told Little Fox not to mention his visit, then vanished; Little Fox later explained what had happened to Ye Fei.
• Ye Fei pretended he had not heard about Feng An's visit, gathered his companions for breakfast, and prepared to head out again.

Ye Fei and his companions continued fighting increasingly powerful beasts, while he processed the snake carcasses Feng An had delivered. The carcasses’ aura frightened ordinary beasts, and Ye Fei began questioning the value of their spirit pearls.

• Feng An praised Ye Fei’s cooking and promised to send more ingredients, while Ye Fei discussed the beasts’ rising Combat Power with Yang Cheng and Lin Xian.
• Yang Cheng described how enhanced equipment had improved his strength, while Lin Xian admitted that his new necklace had barely helped him.
• Ye Fei, Yang Cheng, and Lin Xian continued fighting through the afternoon, and Ye Fei estimated that his family processed about 2,400 beasts each day.
• Ye Fei returned home to find snake carcasses outside his gate and told his pets to rest while he processed them.
• Little Fox showed Ye Fei that the snake carcasses frightened beasts, and Ye Fei guessed their spirit pearls came from creatures above King-level.
• While cooking, Ye Fei noticed that the spirit pearl prices seemed inconsistent with the prices of Beast King Cores and decided to ask someone about it.

Ye Fei learned from Long Heng how Spirit Pets used Heavenly Spirit Pearls and Earth Spirit Pearls, then shared a meal with Feng An. Feng An explained that Long Heng was only a teenager by human standards and revealed that the Human Race had hunted him, leaving him with a lasting grudge.

• Long Heng explained that Heavenly Spirit Pearls and Earth Spirit Pearls came from group kings among Spirit-level beasts and described how the pearls tempered Spirit Pets and aided their growth and breakthroughs.

• Feng An arrived for dinner, complained that Long Heng had gotten food first, and told Ye Fei not to let the younger Demon get too smug.
• Ye Fei asked about Long Heng's age, and Feng An said the few-hundred-year-old was equivalent to a sixteen- or seventeen-year-old human.
• Feng An said members of his Serpent Clan could live for thousands of years and revealed that the Human Race had hunted him before he gained the chance to cultivate, leaving him resentful despite recognizing humanity's advantages.

Feng An told Ye Fei how he maintained his divine status for hundreds of thousands of years by tempting other races with a legacy, then watching them betray and kill its inheritors. He left Ye Fei with a reminder that their friendship depended on Ye Fei becoming strong enough to stand as his equal in some respect.

• Feng An explained that the major races in his world hated one another and fought to replace the gods at the top.
• Feng An said he offered a legacy every thousand years, but each inheritor was killed by their own kind before reaching godhood.
• Feng An revealed that he had never accepted faith power and remained a Demon Race Wind God who held a divine position without becoming part of the God Race.
• Ye Fei realized Feng An had created the legacy scheme mainly to enjoy watching the resulting betrayals and slaughter.
• Feng An told Ye Fei that friendship with someone as powerful as him required Ye Fei to qualify as an equal, and warned that Ye Fei's weakness and reliance on luck could become dangerous.

Ye Fei faced the final stage of Feng An’s trial as the mutated beasts grew stronger and Yang Cheng and Lin Xian reached their limits. With Feng An removing the Protective Shield, Ye Fei positioned his family on the Cliff to confront the remaining beasts while a tornado trapped the Giant Gorilla corpse.

• Ye Fei reassured Little Fox that Feng An would keep them alive as long as they continued to grow stronger.
• The beasts’ combat power rose day by day until Yang Cheng and Lin Xian could no longer survive the fights, so Feng An let them rest and watch from the Hillside.
• Feng An told Ye Fei that this was the last day and left him to choose between facing the remaining 546 beasts or the Giant Gorilla corpse.
• Ye Fei sent Qingxue and the other three to a defensible ledge on the Cliff to deal with the flying beasts first.
• Feng An removed the blood-colored Protective Shield, and the Giant Gorilla corpse revived; as its stench spread, Feng An trapped it in a tornado.

Ye Fei fought off a large swarm of mutated beasts with his spirit-tool longbow, his companions’ abilities, and a costly barrage of bombs. After the battle, Feng An warned him to focus on growing stronger before next month’s disaster, and Ye Fei asked how weaker players had survived this one.

• Ye Fei used his longbow’s hidden Phoenix Bird blades and his companions’ abilities to kill the flying beasts attacking him.
• Ye Fei threw a hundred refined bombs into the gathered beasts, spending fifty thousand points and leaving many injured or crippled.

• Feng An supported Ye Fei with wind and warned him to improve his strength before next month’s disaster.
• Ye Fei asked Feng An how players with low combat power had survived the disaster.

Ye Fei and his companions finished the beast disaster, and Feng An revealed he had deliberately gathered the beasts to entertain himself. After collecting his rewards and returning home with the little ones, Ye Fei received a message from Feng An.

• Feng An admitted he had trapped the beast packs behind a Protective Shield and suppressed the Giant Gorilla Corpse's counterattacks for fun, while Ye Fei thanked him through gritted teeth.
• Little White Tiger killed the final beast, and Ye Fei received rewards for killing 12,366 mutated beasts, including over 110,000 Survival Points and 11,110 spiritual energy.

• Ye Fei chatted with Lin Xian and Yang Cheng, then returned home with the little ones and prepared to bathe and eat.
• Feng An sent Ye Fei a message through friend chat for the first time since they had added each other.

Ye Fei considered how to spend his Survival Points and advised Little Jun on caring for a newly acquired Jiaoren spirit pet. After warning Jun Mo that Jiaoren could be dangerous and rarely grew attached to their owners, Ye Fei learned the boy’s name as he continued chatting with him.

• Ye Fei woke in the night, checked his status and Survival Points, and wondered what to buy.
• Little Jun asked Ye Fei whether the Jiaoren youngling Lingxu might eventually eat him, and Ye Fei advised him to provide meat and a spiritual-energy pool.
• Little Jun built a pool for Lingxu, raising the Jiaoren’s recognition by forty points.
• Ye Fei asked Long Heng about Jiaoren pets, and Long Heng warned that they were difficult to raise and might kill other pets in the household.

• Little Jun told Ye Fei that his name was Jun Mo, a name his master had given him.

Ye Fei spent the night cultivating with Little Fox and Little White Tiger, then received a Supreme Grade Alchemy Furnace from Feng An. The furnace damaged Ye Fei’s other furnaces through its suppression, and Feng An warned him against refining pills and artifacts at the same time.

• Ye Fei played with Little White Tiger and Little Fox before resuming cultivation while they watched quietly.
• At dawn, Feng An noticed Ye Fei’s fire-leaning spiritual energy and considered helping him pursue other paths.
• Feng An warned Ye Fei not to refine pills and artifacts at the same time or attempt items above three-colored before reaching Foundation Establishment.
• Feng An placed the Supreme Grade Alchemy Furnace beside the Phoenix Tree, where it dimmed Ye Fei’s Advanced Artifact Refining Furnace and shattered his Basic Artifact Refining Furnace.
• Feng An moved the Advanced Artifact Refining Furnace away, allowing its colors to return, while Ye Fei lamented the damage to his furnaces.

Ye Fei accepted Feng An’s pill recipes and materials, agreeing to refine batches for him in exchange. After deciding to treat Feng An as a powerful quest giver rather than take his teasing personally, Ye Fei explained his thinking to Little Fox, while Feng An overheard and realized Ye Fei saw him as a source of rewards.

• Feng An gave Ye Fei several pill recipes and materials, asking him to refine one batch for free and then trade two sets of materials for each batch of pills.
• Ye Fei sincerely thanked Feng An, who grew irritated by his sudden gratitude and left before their planned meal.
• Ye Fei began refining Spirit-Gathering Pills and told Little Fox that Feng An’s power and his promise to keep Ye Fei alive made cooperating with him worthwhile.
• Little Fox understood Feng An as a quest giver and decided to work hard so it could help Ye Fei handle future quests safely.
• Feng An returned and overheard Ye Fei’s explanation, realizing Ye Fei treated him as a quest giver and finding the idea bold and interesting.

Ye Fei refined 20 Spirit-Gathering Pills while cultivating and learned that Lu Heng had survived his disaster. After Little Deer ate a pill, Little Fox and Little White Tiger returned with a purple Supply Crate, which Ye Fei prepared to open.

• Ye Fei refined Spirit-Gathering Pills and continued cultivating, noting that the pills did not consume luck.
• Lu Heng told Ye Fei that his disaster had ended after he put out 738 fires, and the two exchanged names.
• Ye Fei finished refining 20 pills and gave one to Little Deer, who ate it and returned to cultivate.
• Little Fox excitedly told Ye Fei that it and Little White Tiger had found a Supply Crate.
• Little White Tiger took out the purple Supply Crate, and Ye Fei prepared to open it.

Ye Fei expanded his courtyard to make room for spirit plants, then planted Mind-Clearing Grass seeds and fertilized them. Little Fox called him to the front yard, where he discovered a change in the Phoenix Tree.

• Ye Fei examined the items from the Purple Quality chest and learned that low-grade spirit stones had many potential uses.
• Ye Fei tried to plant Mind-Clearing Grass, but discovered each seed needed a large area to grow properly.
• Ye Fei bought materials for four more spirit fields and expanded his courtyard from 20 × 30 to 100 × 100.
• Ye Fei arranged the spirit fields, planted all ten Mind-Clearing Grass seeds, and applied fertilizer to double their growth speed for three days.
• Little Fox called Ye Fei to the front yard, where he found that the Phoenix Tree had changed.

Ye Fei made room for the Divine Phoenix Tree and rebuilt his home into a larger, more comfortable space for himself and the little ones. After playing with them and chatting with his friends, he prepared to begin body tempering that evening.

• Ye Fei realized the Divine Phoenix Tree had stayed small because it lacked room, and the tree expanded once he cleared space around it.
• Ye Fei replaced his cramped home with a two-story wooden house and basement, then filled the ground floor with toys for the little ones.
• Little Fox, Little White Tiger, Little Deer, and Eclipse Moon played together in the new house, while Ye Fei watched them enjoy the toys.
• Ye Fei decided to absorb spiritual energy up to 6,000 of his 6,500 limit before tempering his body.
• Ye Fei absorbed part of the Spiritual Energy Orb, chatted with Senior Lingyan, Long Heng, Junior Schoolmate Lu Heng, and Youth Jun Mo, then set out Beast Essence Stones before starting body tempering.

Ye Fei endured a painful advancement that brought him to Qi Refining Fourth Tier and greatly increased his attributes, but he discovered his friends had grown even stronger. He decided to pause cultivation and spend the next few days refining pills, reassuring Little Fox that she did not need to advance yet.

• Ye Fei began a breakthrough and body tempering, enduring pain from twelve new acupoints while Little Deer and the other little ones watched anxiously.
• Ye Fei woke the next morning having reached Qi Refining Fourth Tier, with his attributes increased and his combat power at 40.
• Ye Fei checked his friends’ information and saw that Jun Mo, Lu Heng, Lingyan, and Long Heng all had higher combat power than him.
• Ye Fei picked up Little Fox, called her Qingxue, and told her not to rush her advancement because he planned to refine pills instead of cultivating for several days.

Ye Fei swallowed a Metal Spiritual Root Pill and endured the painful Body Tempering that came with improving his Spiritual Root. He then discovered Phantom Spirit had reached level 2, comforted it about its emerging antlers, and worried that advancing his pets’ bloodlines would cost more than he could afford.

• Ye Fei took a Metal Spiritual Root Pill, raising his Spiritual Root after enduring another painful round of Body Tempering.
• Little Fox alerted Ye Fei that something was wrong in the backyard, where Phantom Spirit had leveled up and was upset about its emerging antlers.
• Ye Fei reassured Phantom Spirit that it was cute, then comforted Eclipse Moon when the dog felt it was being treated unfairly.
• Ye Fei checked his pets’ attributes and saw Phantom Spirit’s Combat Power had risen from 81 to 105, while Feng Bai had reached level 10 and its King-level cap.
• Ye Fei realized he needed to earn more money to advance Qingxue’s and Feng Bai’s bloodlines, despite having 1.13 million Survival Points.

Ye Fei finished refining five spirit pills, raised all five of his spiritual roots to at least 10 points, and learned that they now counted as beginner-level roots. After wondering whether that was unusually weak, he asked several acquaintances for advice and received reassurance from Jun Mo.

• Ye Fei sent Feng An five spirit pills and explained that none had upgraded, then learned Feng An would be away for a while.
• Ye Fei prepared food for his little companions and calmed himself to attempt a breakthrough, but a Five-Element Spiritual Root reward appeared first.
• Ye Fei saw that each of his five spiritual roots had reached the beginner standard of 10 points and felt disappointed that his progress only qualified as beginner.
• Ye Fei messaged Senior Lingyan, Jun Mo, and Lu Heng to ask whether his spiritual roots were too weak.
• Jun Mo reassured Ye Fei that spiritual roots were important but not everything, and that cultivation could make up for shortcomings in other areas.
