Chapter 212 - Void Beast?!
Chapter 212 Void Beast?!
Seeing Xu Ning so confident, Yuan Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly.
“Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning, it’s more important to protect yourself. If you are really injured by that cyan wolf demon beast, I can’t explain it to Sect Master Mi.”
Although Yuan Yuan expressed that he was helpless against the cyan wolf demon beast, he was not asking Xu Ning for help.
In his opinion, even if Xu Ning had condensed an attribute seed, he was still far inferior to the two injured elders in the sect, let alone the cyan wolf demon beast.
Xu Ning didn’t say anything else. There was no need to prove anything.
He only hoped that the cyan wolf would appear soon. Maybe he could find some clues from it.
“Xu Ning, your demon beast look like a kitten, but its bloodline seems to of high-quality.”
At this moment, Si Ying noticed Gray’s uniqueness.
The current Gray was stronger than Si Ying and Yuan Yuan. So, with it taking the initiative to hide its aura, they couldn’t notice that Gray was infinitely close to the half-step dao realm.
“This demon beast is indeed quite extraordinary…”
Yuan Yuan no longer wanted to mention the troubles brought by the cyan wolf demon beast. He instead turned his head and looked at Gray.
Si Ying leaned forward, wanting to reach out and pick up Gray.
When Gray saw this, its eyes revealed a look of disgust.
It bared its teeth and the silver mark on its forehead flashed. Its body then emitted the aura of a high level void realm demon beast.
“This…”
Si Ying subconsciously stepped back. She obviously didn’t expect Gray to have such strength.
“This harmless demon beast is actually in the high level void realm?’
Si Yinghe and Yuan Yuan looked at Gray in surprise.
“Gray, don’t be rude.”
Xu Ning scolded.
After hearing this, Gray lowered his head again and curled up, ignoring Si Ying.
“Xu Ning, how did you subdue this demon beast?”
Si Ying asked.
It was common for powerful martial artists to tame demon beasts.
However, the higher the strength of a demon beast, the higher their intelligence, and stronger their self-awareness. This kind of demon beast would rather die than be tamed.
“I got to know it when I was in the mortal realm, and I did not subdue it. We are partners.”
Xu Ning explained.
After saying this, Gray looked back at Si Ying with a smug expression.
“Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning is indeed extraordinary. Even this kind of demon beast took the initiative to find you as a companion.”
Yuan Yuan sighed. Although they didn’t find out Gray’s identity as a void beast, they both noticed that its bloodline was of high-quality.
“Let me thank Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning first for coming all this way and sparing no effort for the Moon Gazing Sect.”
Yuan Yuan stood up. “Next, Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning, please come with me to see the elders and the outstanding disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect.”
“Okay.”
Xu Ning stood up.
Afterwards, Yuan Yuan took Xu Ning and greeted all the elders and elite disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect.
After learning about Xu Ning’s past deeds and his current strength, both the elders and disciples were very polite to Xu Ning, especially some disciples, who expressed their respect for Xu Ning on the spot. Xu Ning was naturally humble. After chatting with everyone, he suggested that those outstanding disciples could come to him to discuss martial arts cultivation at any time. Just like this, Xu Ning easily won the favor of the entire Moon Gazing Sect.
Afterwards, Yuan Yuan hosted a banquet for Xu Ning. Although after advancing to the void realm, there was no need for food, the delicacies at the banquet were all boiled and cooked with spirit herbs so it was quite an unique experience.
After the welcoming banquet, Xu Ning was arranged to stay in a villa in the Moon Gazing Sect.
Yuan Yuan had arranged for disciples to wait on Xu Ning, but Xu Ning refused and only let Gray and Little Gray follow him in.
Over the next few days, besides occasionally receiving a few disciples from the Moon Gazing Sect for consultation, Xu Ning had been waiting for the appearance of the cyan wolf demon beast.
However, to Xu Ning’s disappointment, the cyan wolf demon beast did not appear even once after he came to the Moon Gazing Sect.
‘It wouldn’t just stop coming, right?’
Xu Ning thought to himself.
‘Do I have to take the initiative to lure it out?’
Xu Ning pondered.
The first time the cyan wolf demon beast appeared in the Moon Gazing Sect, it was attracted by the Paramount Fruit.
‘Let’s try.’
Xu Ning decided to see if he could lure it over.
Afterwards, Xu Ning took out a pill furnace and prepared to refine a pill that could attract demon beasts.
“Demon beasts are very sensitive to medicinal pills that can improve their bloodline aptitude. This sensitivity actually exceeded the ability of perception itself. It is rather the yearning of their bloodline.”
Xu Ning threw a bunch of precious spirit herbs into the pill furnace.
Even Little Gray had never enjoyed these precious materials before.
Of course, this was also because Little Gray was not strong enough to withstand the medicinal effects.
Xu Ning activated the attribute seeds in his body, refined the spirit herbs in the pill furnace, and patiently refined the pill.
After about half an hour, a palm-sized azure pill flew out of the pill furnace.
‘The demon beast blood cleansing pill refined this time is quite good.’
Xu Ning took it and looked at it carefully with a satisfied expression.
Demon beast blood cleansing pill was a general term. All medicinal pills that could improve the bloodline of demon beasts were called this.
‘In order to make it even more enticing, I even added a few spirit herbs into it, allowing its medicinal properties and medicinal fragrance to spread more widely.’ Xu Ning spent a lot of effort on this.
Xu Ning walked out of the room with the demon beast blood cleansing pill.
As soon as he walked out of the room, Xu Ning saw Little Gray and Gray, two demon beasts, one big and one small, sitting on the ground and staring at Xu Ning.
More precisely, they were staring at the demon beast blood cleansing pill in Xu Ning’s hand.
Especially Little Gray, it could feel its bloodline power trembling.
If Little Gray consumed this demon beast blood cleansing pill, its upper limit would break through the shackles of the mid level void realm. As long as it continued to eat large amounts of food, it would be able to advance to the high level void realm.
As for Gray, although this pill had little effect on it, the smell of this pill was too enticing.
“This is not for the both of you.”
Xu Ning looked at Little Gray and Gray’s expectant eyes, smiled, and gave them a disappointing answer. “At least not for now.”
Xu Ning added, “After it attracts the cyan wolf demon beast, I will give it to you.”
After he said that, Little Gray cheered again.
Although Gray tried its best to restrain itself and maintain its composure, its gulping throat betrayed its true thoughts.
“Let’s see if you will come or not.”
Xu Ning jumped onto a tall tree in the garden and placed the demon beast blood cleansing pill on the top of the branches.
It was midnight right now. Xu Ning looked up and saw the full moon hanging high in the sky.
Afterwards, Xu Ning went down the tree and released the aura of a half-step dao realm master.
This was to prevent other small demon beasts from coming after smelling the medicinal fragrance. After all, it would be troublesome to drive them away.
Xu Ning sat cross-legged under the tree and waited. Little Gray and Gray isolated their perception, preventing them from being tempted by the medicinal fragrance.
Time slowly passed by.
After about four hours.
‘It hasn’t appeared yet…’
Xu Ning looked up. The demon beast blood cleansing pill was still there.
‘Maybe it has left this place…’
Xu Ning guessed. ‘Let’s wait for another two hours. If it doesn’t appear, then forget it…’
Afterwards, Xu Ning began to wait.
However, less than half an hour later, Xu Ning suddenly stood up. Gray also seemed to sense something and suddenly stood up.
Xu Ning then saw a skinny cyan wolf on the roof of the villa.
“That is…”
Under the moonlight, Xu Ning took a clear look at the cyan wolf.
The quality of its fur and the color of its pupils, almost every part of its body was exactly the same as the will apparition of the cyan wolf in the copper knife and the copper fan.
‘That’s right, this cyan wolf is definitely related to the cyan wolf will apparition in the copper knife and fan!’
It might have been a guess earlier but Xu Ning was now certain.
The higher the level a demon beast was, the more obvious their unique characteristics would be. For such a perfect resemblance, there must be a direct bloodline connection.
“Auooooo!”
The cyan wolf raised its head and howled. The pressure from its body spread out, covering half of the entirety of the Moon Gazing Sect.
After discovering Xu Ning and Gray, it felt a strong sense of fear.
Afterwards, the cyan wolf turned into a shadow and ran towards the demon beast blood cleansing pill. Xu Ning instantly made a move. He activated his bracer and released his attribute domain.
The cyan wolf was only one step away from the demon beast blood cleansing pill, but the moment Xu Ning released his attribute domain, it felt a fatal threat.
Almost without hesitation, the cyan wolf gave up on the demon beast blood cleansing pill, turned around, and fled.
‘Trying to leave?’
Xu Ning didn’t give it a chance at all. He chased after it.
Gray saw this and immediately followed. As for Little Gray, it couldn’t even raise its head under this level of pressure. “Not good, the cyan wolf has appeared again!” Many elders and disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect sensed the pressure released by the cyan wolf just now.
They had already experienced this before, so they all rushed towards the cave behind the sect.
Yuan Yuan and Si Ying wanted to hide, but after sensing that the cyan wolf had appeared at Xu Ning’s villa, they gritted their teeth and rushed over. They were afraid that something would happen to Xu Ning.
They still didn’t know that Xu Ning was the one who attracted the cyan wolf.
“Where are you running to?”
Xu Ning’s attribute domain had already enveloped the cyan wolf.
But the cyan wolf suddenly activated its bloodline power and broke free from Xu Ning’s attribute domain.
At this moment, Gray followed up. It suddenly jumped up with its body stopping in mid-air.
Gray’s head quickly expanded, and its mouth opened wide, producing a terrifying suction force towards the cyan wolf.
Coincidentally, Yuan Yuan and Si Ying arrived at the same time.
They happened to see Gray’s terrifying power. “This is…”
After seeing this scene, Yuan Yuan and Si Ying suddenly remembered the beast tide from three hundred years ago.
“A void beast?!”
