Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1568: Chapter 830: Dragon Phoenix (Part 2)

This place is very close to the gate of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect. For the successful advancement of Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon, he applied to the Ten Thousand Beast Sect for the rights to two Great Cultivator Spirit Veins, transferring the Spiritual Energy here.

Additionally, with some spirit veins in his own hands, he created this Formation with a rich Spiritual Energy environment.

Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon were placed inside the Formation, and the Spiritual Energy nourished their bodies.

The constant intake of late-stage Fourth Grade Dragon Phoenix Clan resources over two months allowed the energy accumulated in their bodies to reach a terrifying level.

Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon both returned to their maximum form. The Red Gold Phoenix within the formation emitted bursts of phoenix cries, while the body of the Illusion Spirit Dragon appeared intermittently, unable to stabilize its internal energy.

Under normal circumstances, the Illusion Spirit Dragon can maintain an invisible state continuously.

Currently, the massive energy inside its body continuously washes over it, making it unable to maintain its Talent Ability.

The commotion on this side had already been noticed by the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.

Several figures flew over, with Grandmaster Hu, Master Ding, and Grandmaster Chai at the front, followed by three female cultivators.

They were all drawn by the aura here, being Great Cultivators specialized in cultivating Spiritual Pets, and they naturally understood the source of this aura.

"It’s the breakthrough of Shizhen’s two Spiritual Pets today!" Grandmaster Hu introduced to the three female cultivators behind him.

They did not approach because approaching at such a time could easily cause misunderstandings.

"Such pure phoenix bloodline, even the Luanyang Palace might not have a Red Gold Phoenix comparable to this one!" Master Li among the female cultivators remarked in awe.

She had met Li Shiming in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect before, and she didn’t expect that upon meeting again, Li Shiming had grown to such an extent that she had to look up to him.

She was still some distance from a Peak Great Cultivator, but Li Shiming had already slain two powerful Peak Great Cultivators.

"This Red Gold Phoenix was obtained in the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave Heaven. In less than a hundred years, Shizhen invested so many resources, it’s really too wasteful!" Grandmaster Hu said with a slight heartache.

He knew very well how difficult it is to raise a newly born Red Gold Phoenix to the Peak of Fourth Grade Middle Stage and almost to Late Stage Fourth Grade in less than a hundred years. It requires a tremendous amount of resource investment.

Looking at his own Red Gold Phoenix, it was still at Fourth Grade Middle Stage. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to elevate it; he just couldn’t provide the resources for its advancement.

"Brother Ding, what kind of dragon is that?" Grandmaster Hu noticed the intermittently appearing Illusion Spirit Dragon and asked Master Ding.

Master Ding was an absolute expert when it came to Dragon Clan Spiritual Pets.

"I can’t tell, but it seems like it might be an Ancient Spiritual Beast. This kind of Ancient Spiritual Beast might be recognizable in its juvenile state, but Shizhen’s dragon clearly swallowed a large amount of Dragon Clan bloodlines to forcibly elevate to its current state. Even with an ancient cultivator present, they might not be able to recognize the dragon’s original form!" Master Ding explained with a shake of his head.

Master Li looked at the two Spiritual Pets and then at Li Shiming, who was to the side, with a smile on her lips.

She had been quite good to Li Shiming back then, giving him an elixir recipe specifically for the Phoenix Clan from the Luanyang Palace, as well as a rare treasure.

At that time, she only had expectations for Li Shiming’s future, not realizing that his growth would be so swift, with returns coming so quickly from her investment.

As the several Great Cultivators’ thoughts varied, Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon reached a critical moment.

Little Feng’s feathers turned into flames, starting as red flames. As the temperature rose, the feathers turned white, and the white flame appeared extremely eerie.

The Illusion Spirit Dragon became completely transparent, making its bodily changes undetectable to observers.

Through a soul connection, Li Shiming sensed the pain of Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon, their energy inside explosively active.

This outbreak process is the most dangerous time in a Spiritual Pet’s advancement. If their physical bodies cannot withstand the energy burst, they would instantly turn to ashes.

But Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon were different. The massive consumption of late-stage Fourth Grade resources made their physical bodies exceptionally resilient.

Even though they were in pain now, it didn’t affect the enhancement of their Demon Cores.

The explosive energy from their entire bodies resulted in more refined and solid energy being absorbed into their Demon Cores.

Spirit beasts use this extremely primitive method to advance, and such advancement results in a lot of energy waste and makes the process more perilous.

However, spirit beasts with powerful bloodlines obtain the inheritance of their kind from their bloodlines and know the conditions under which their chances of advancement are higher.

In fact, in the Cultivation World, spirit beasts with strong bloodlines have a lower chance of advancement failure compared to cultivators.

Little Feng continuously emitted phoenix cries, and the Illusion Spirit Dragon also let out dragon roars, sounding painful at times and thrilling at others. Each cry and roar infused their Demon Cores with a new surge of solid energy.

This burst also enhanced their spirit, though the enhanced spirit was also unknowingly directed into the Demon Core.

Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon continued their cries and roars for six hours before their voices showed signs of exhaustion.

"How many resources did Shizhen actually give to the two Spiritual Pets?" Grandmaster Hu asked in disbelief, eyes wide open.

Even the three female cultivators from the Luanyang Palace showed shock.

Even the Phoenix resources prepared for core Great Cultivators in the Luanyang Palace couldn’t sustain a six-hour outburst like this.

This wasn’t just a spirit beast outburst; this was burning resources, and they were all late-stage Fourth Grade resources.

They were one hundred percent certain that the potential of Li Shiming’s Dragon and Phoenix Spiritual Pets would be astonishing, with the substantial resource investment laying a solid foundation.

At this time, Little Feng’s feathers returned to red, but beneath the red feathers, one could see the white light hidden underneath. It’s believed that when Little Feng fully activates its power, its flames will reach a truly terrifying level.

In comparison, the Illusion Spirit Dragon wasn’t as dazzling as Little Feng, but that doesn’t mean its advancement was weaker.

Now that its internal energy was stable post-advancement, the Illusion Spirit Dragon went invisible again, its body in the invisible state reached forty meters in length.

With just that length, even without using any energy, it could cause great destruction just by relying on its Dragon Clan physique.

Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon collapsed in front of Li Shiming, excitement flashing in their eyes. Their current weakness was merely a reaction after prolonged exposure.

Wild spirit beasts choose a safe place to advance, knowing that the spirit beast will be in a state of weakness for a period after advancement, the time when they are most defenseless.

Li Shiming took out two Spirit Pills he had prepared long ago and gave them to them.

He sensed the aura of Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon, and the battle power of the late-stage Fourth Grade Red Gold Phoenix and Illusion Spirit Dragon alone was enough to suppress multiple superpower Great Cultivators.

The Illusion Spirit Dragon’s invisible state, if not for Li Shiming being its owner, it would be impossible to detect the existence of the Illusion Spirit Dragon.

The previous Illusion Spirit Dragon had to worry about being discovered by Great Cultivators’ Divine Sense due to its realm. Now there was no need to worry about that anymore.

Considering the Illusion Spirit Dragon’s teeth and venom, any Great Cultivator caught off guard and bitten, even just a little, would face death by venom.

"Alright, you both rest up, I’ve got visitors!" Li Shiming gently patted Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon, storing them away as he spoke.

Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon were taken into the Heavenly Person Cave Heaven, spacious enough and their usual habitat, where their nests were located.

After putting away Little Feng and the Illusion Spirit Dragon, Li Shiming also cleaned up the Formation on the ground, then flew towards the several Great Cultivators. He had already recognized the three female cultivators from Luanyang Palace, who were the Great Cultivators that previously reinforced the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.
