Chapter 1556: 388: Xuanwood Vine, the Fortuitous Encounter of Dragon Fish Island! (part 2)

Although it is only a Ninth Grade Spiritual Root.

But at birth, he was also excited and overjoyed.

Unfortunately, there is no perfection in the world, and what he could do for this son was ultimately limited.

Even though he bestowed the Heavenly Longevity Technique, the latter calmly refused, believing that he had no regrets in this life and did not wish to cultivate this technique for the so-called longevity.

After briefly inquiring about the situation here, Lu Changsheng went to the back mountain and looked at his first spiritual pet—the Nine Netherhound.

The once demon beast cub he could hold in his arms was now over one and a half zhang tall and three zhang long.

Its entire body was covered in dense, jet-black fur, shining brightly, reflecting a mysterious luster in the sunlight.

The fierce and terrifying wolf head had a scarlet vertical pupil embedded in its forehead, captivating and daunting, with interlocking fangs like forest-white blades that sent chills down one’s spine.

"Aowoo—"

Seeing its master Lu Changsheng, the Nine Netherhound immediately lowered its head obediently, wagging its tail gently to express its happiness.

"Take this demon core, digest it slowly, don’t rush, and notify Xianzhi when you’re ready to break through."

Lu Changsheng took out a dark purple Third Rank Demon Core from a Storage Ring and gave it to the Nine Netherhound.

During this journey to the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, although he didn’t hunt a Nether Moon Wolf King with similar attributes,

he didn’t return empty-handed, finding another Wolf King as a substitute.

"Aowoo!"

Seeing the dark purple oval sphere before it, the Nine Netherhound growled lowly, expressing its delight and eagerness.

The simplest method for a demon beast to grow quickly is to devour demon cores, monster cores, and heavenly and earthly treasures with similar attributes.

This demon core, although not as good as the previous Nether Moon Wolf King’s demon core,

also came from an Earth Grade bloodline Third Rank Wolf King, with very pure quality and purity!

"Make sure you strive hard."

Lu Changsheng patted the Nine Netherhound and said.

As a Second Rank monster beast, consuming two Third Rank Demon Cores is considered extremely extravagant.

If people knew that Lu Changsheng nurtured his spiritual pets this way, they would probably scold him for wasting heaven’s gifts.

After all, a single demon core can exchange for many heavenly and earthly treasures to nurture spiritual pets.

...

After leaving White Tiger Mountain, Lu Changsheng returned to Bi Lake Mountain and discussed the Nine Netherhound’s matters with Lu Miaoyun.

He indicated that when he received a message from White Tiger Mountain, he should be informed to bring the Nine Netherhound back to Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven for breakthrough.

Although a demon beast’s breakthrough doesn’t require as much from the Spirit Vein Dojo and nature’s spiritual energy as a cultivator does,

a Quasi-Third Rank Spirit Vein is sufficient for a demon beast to break through to Third Rank.

But if there’s a good environment at home, why not use it?

Also, when a demon beast breaks through, and its monster core advances to a demon core, this breakthrough process is somewhat like a cultivator’s Core Formation, which can be influenced by external factors.

Therefore, Lu Changsheng also prepared to set up a ’Demon Evil Formation’ for the Nine Netherhound, investing some heavenly and earthly treasures with similar attributes to help it advance smoothly to become an Immortal Golden Core among demon kings!

This way, in the future when Changsheng True Master goes out, although he is not good at fighting and combat, his spiritual beasts can take on the task.

"Little Black is about to advance to Third Rank?"

The Nine Netherhound spends most of its time at White Tiger Mountain, so Lu Miaoyun isn’t very familiar with its growth speed.

She vaguely remembers when she married Lu Changsheng, the Nine Netherhound was still like a little puppy, treated like a playmate by Lu Ping’an and others.

Unexpectedly, this little puppy, unknowingly, is about to become a demon king.

"It should take a few more years."

Lu Changsheng smiled and said.

After spending a few more days with his wife, Lu Changsheng took Meng Xiaochan back to the Great Dream Immortal City.

...

Ten days later.

Great Dream Immortal City, City Lord Mansion.

"Brother! Sister Xiaochan!"

"Daddy, are you done with your work!"

With Ling Zixiao busy, and Lu Miaoge and Hong Lian in closed-door cultivation, the vast City Lord Mansion was left with only Bai Ling and daughter Lu Baixi.

"Ling’er, Xiaoxi."

Lu Changsheng hugged Bai Ling, then looked at his daughter, whom he hadn’t seen for over a year and who still hadn’t grown much, and ruffled her hair.

"Where are Wangshu and Xiao He?"

Seeing the other two daughters weren’t there, Lu Changsheng was a bit surprised.

"Wangshu took Xiao He out to play..."

Bai Ling recounted the situation of the past two years after Lu Changsheng left.

Hearing that Lu Wangshu took his daughter Lu Linghe out, he wasn’t too worried, just felt sorry for his daughter Lu Baixi being alone at home.

Fortunately, this daughter had a quiet and studious personality;

even if she stayed home reading and studying cultivation techniques every day, she didn’t feel bored.

Additionally, after not seeing her for two years, she had reached a critical point in her cultivation, ready to break through at any time.

"Xiaoxi’s breakthrough, what is it — demon cultivation?"

Lu Changsheng looked at his fifteen-year-old daughter, who still appeared only eight or nine years old, and wondered silently.

Her situation wasn’t Qi Refinement, and neither was it Body Refinement, yet her spiritual power and physique were advancing simultaneously.

"Daddy, have you finished your work?"

Lu Baixi looked at Lu Changsheng expectantly, her platinum holy shining eyes revealing a thirst for learning. .

"Daddy’s done, now, Xiaoxi, is there anything you didn’t understand during this time of cultivation?"

Although teaching children cultivation was quite a headache, Lu Changsheng intended to make up for his daughter after being away for so long.

At this moment, he also released his daughter Lu Mengchan from the Spiritual Eye Spring of the Tianyuan Lotus, unsealing her.

After a year of sleep, Lu Mengchan was filled with spiritual energy, her body delicate and jade-like, her meridians shimmering with a crystal-clear luster.

"Oh, daddy, mommy, Auntie Lingling, sister Xiaoxi."

She drowsily opened her eyes, still a bit befuddled from sleep.

After a moment, she came to her senses and said, "Daddy, are we home?"

"Yes, we’re home,"

Lu Changsheng replied with a smile.

"Mom, where’s my ball ball?"

She immediately turned to her mother Meng Xiaochan, eager to share her pet Flying Bear with her sister Lu Linghe.
