Chapter 17: Fire Spirit Beast
Ye Xunzheng wondered where their mother had gone, stood up and looked around, but suddenly saw traces of a fight around a big rock not far ahead, and it looked very fierce.
He slowly stepped over the litter of cubs and ran, "What's going on? Could it be that their mother has already" Ye Xun looked at these traces, and he didn't dare to imagine what was going on.
"No, look. Long Yi patted Ye Xun on the shoulder and motioned for him to look forward.
In front of them was a cave, which opened from the outside, and the inside seemed to be bottomless.
The entrance to the cave is not large, just enough for one person to pass. Ye Xun leaned down and climbed in, but found that there was a cave inside.
He continued deeper into the cave and found something in the spring in the center of the cave.
Ye Xun walked around behind the many stone pillars in the cave, stretched his neck to look at the spring, and found that it was a female fire spirit beast.
Ye Xun plucked up the courage to crawl towards the spring, he slowly crawled to the side of the fire spirit beast, and found that her breath was already very weak.
The fire spirit beast sensed that something was beside it, and opened its eyes with great difficulty, only to find that there was a human lying in front of it. From the bones, the disgust for humans made her subconsciously breathe, and it was in the middle of Ye Xun's face.
Ye Xun suddenly turned over and got up, shook his head, squatted down again, and looked at the fire spirit beast with a serious face.
Time seemed to stand still, and a man and a beast looked at each other like this.
The fire spirit beast seemed to sense that Ye Xun was not malicious, and struggled to get out of the spring, but it was only in vain, because it was too seriously injured, it was already about to die.
The tired fire spirit beast finally slowly closed its eyes, turned its spiritual power into a trace of consciousness, and drilled into his brain through Ye Xun's breath.
A voice suddenly exploded in Ye Xun's head: "Human, I know that my lifespan is short, I just ask you to take care of my cubs outside, if you can do it, this son can sign a contract with you and use it for you." ”
"Okay, I promise you. "Ye Xun originally had this intention, a mutated fire spirit beast! If it is summoned, it will be very popular! It will definitely be very useful in battle!
"Do you dare to swear by your demons?" the fire spirit beast continued.
"I, Ye Xun, have sworn by my own demons here, I will definitely raise this fire spirit beast cub wholeheartedly, never give up, if there is a violation, let me not be able to comprehend the higher realm of martial arts in this life!" Ye Xun didn't say a word, raised three fingers, looked ahead, and swore his oath.
"Okay, thank you, I can go with peace of mind. As soon as the words fell, the wisp of spiritual power of the fire spirit beast in Ye Xun's brain dissipated, burrowed into Ye Xun's meridians, and turned into a part of him.
And the fire spirit beast in the spring water also closed its eyes peacefully.
Ye Xun sat cross-legged in place, feeling the spiritual power scurrying in his body, and the trace of spiritual power of the fire spirit beast just now made him faintly feel like he was about to break through.
Ye Xun concentrated on refining the trace of spiritual power from the spirit beast, and the momentum around his body slowly rose, and finally gathered into a point, striving to impact the threshold of breakthrough.
An hour
Two hours
Time was slowly passing, and the momentum around Ye Xun was becoming more and more restrained, and finally all of them drilled into Ye Xun's body.
Ye Xun slowly opened his eyes, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"That's right, absorbing the innate heaven and earth qi in the spirit beast's body actually helped you break through from a third-level spirit to a fifth-level spirit at once. Long Yi looked at Ye Xun in a circle.
Ye Xun dug a pit in the cave ** and buried the corpse of the fire spirit beast, and also set up a small tablet to thank her for her help in his cultivation.
The two of them got out of the cave and went straight to the lair of the fire spirit beast, Ye Xun gently picked up the cub and put it into the ring, without waking it up, Ye Xun planned to secretly raise it first, and then sign a contract with it when it was older.
"Alright, boy, we should get down to business. Long Yi patted Ye Xun on the head, led him to a small clearing, and planted a wooden stake on the ground.
"You inject spiritual power into the Blood Dragon Blade now, remember, you must control the amount, otherwise, if you are continuously absorbed by this Blood Dragon Blade, your life will not be guaranteed. Long Yi sat on the top of the stake with a serious face, lowered his head and looked at Ye Xun, without the slightest hint of the old hanger in his eyes.
"Good. Ye Xun also nodded solemnly, and the light of the ring in his hand flashed, and the blood dragon blade appeared in his hand. He silently injected a trace of spiritual power into it, and the blood dragon blade turned bright red again.
Ye Xun retreated to a distance of ten meters from the wooden stake, and suddenly waved the blood dragon blade in his hand, only to see that a leaf visible to the naked eye hit the stake in an instant, but the stake did not seem to have changed.
Ye Xun walked to the stake suspiciously, stretched out his hand and slowly stroked the stake, but the stake was divided in half because of this slight touch, and the cut surface was very smooth, as if it had been polished, without the slightest twist and turn.
Although Ye Xun has a little understanding of the power of the blood dragon blade, he didn't expect it to be so sharp, it is simply a sharp weapon that kills people invisibly, if he uses it well, wouldn't it be "The blood dragon blade is in hand, and the world is let me go?"
Thinking like this, he laughed unconsciously, and then simply looked up to the sky and laughed, looking at Long Yi in a daze, thinking that he was stimulated by something, and suddenly went crazy.
Since Ye Xun saw the true power of the Blood Dragon Blade, he had practiced more diligently.
He found that if the Blood Dragon Blade was not infused with spiritual power, it would be just a dagger that looked a little weird on the outside, but once it was injected with spiritual power, the Blood Dragon Blade would immediately come alive and become powerful.
Ye Xun practiced his knife in the forest day after day, fortunately, this place was relatively hidden, and Ye Xun would try his best to control it when he trained, so that there would be no sudden big movements, attracting the attention of people outside.
In this way, a month passed, Ye Xun never stepped out of the forest, when he was hungry, he hunted some spirit beasts to fill his stomach, and when he was tired, he released the cubs of the fire spirit beast to play with him, oh yes, he also gave the fire spirit beast a name - Xiao An.
He hopes that this cub can grow up smoothly and healthily, and the feelings cultivated over the past few days have made Xiao An very dependent on Ye Xun, and when Ye Xun released him out for activities, he would run around Ye Xun in a circle, and sometimes hide naughtily to make Ye Xun easy to find.
Time flies, and another month has passed like this, Ye Xun has perfected the blood dragon blade, and he is also honing his skills in the process of hunting spirit beasts, and gradually began to kill more and more advanced spirit beasts.
Ye Xun's cultivation has also broken through to the peak of the fifth level, and he is only one step away from breaking through.
