The Master of Beasts-Chapter 516 - 116:

This is a Spiritual Beast, unlike the Spiritual Beasts cultivated by Chen Jiuge. Normally, a Spiritual Beast’s cultivation advancement is slower than a cultivator’s by countless times, unless they are accumulated with a vast amount of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

But Black Eye had none of these, yet still reached this level, which can only mean that it endured countless hardships.

"Master," Black Eye maintained its usual composure.

"It’s good to have you back. Just as before, watch the Spiritual Beasts for me," Chen Jiuge smiled as he patted Black Eye’s head.

"Mm."

Putting Black Eye and Yue Li into the tree house, Chen Jiuge sighed softly, "It seems it’s time to make an early decision."

The Chaos Pearl can guide the mutation of Spiritual Beasts, and this is no different for Black Eye and others. However, Chen Jiuge has grown accustomed to their appearances and hesitated whether to do so or not?

After all, Chen Jiuge does not lack Spiritual Beast fighters now and can cultivate new ones at any time. But Black Eye and the others are different. Over the years, Chen Jiuge has long regarded them as family, making it really hard to lay hands on them.

"Forget it, let’s wait for Dabai and Yue Meng to return, then I’ll ask them all together. I wonder if the prior bloodline will have any effect on the mutation."

Thinking of this gave Chen Jiuge a headache. Currently, the Chaos Pearl has lost the ability to extract bloodlines, so he can’t experiment with a Spiritual Beast first, making it really troublesome.

......

Like a towering tower, the pill furnace emitted a dull sound, and a charming fragrance wafted from within.

"No wonder it’s the Divine Beast most skilled in refining medicine. In such a short time, it can independently refine a First Revolutions Immortal Pill." A white-haired old woman withdrew the elixir from the tower-like pill furnace with her fingers, observing it.

Yue Meng’s ears slightly flapped, and she excitedly asked, "Granny Mu, did I pass?"

Granny Mu lovingly patted Yue Meng’s head and said, "You passed, little one."

"If it weren’t for you being contracted by that little one, I’d really want to take you as a disciple!"

Yue Meng blinked and said, "You could do it now too."

Granny Mu shook her head with a smile. She was a master of Immortal Pill refinement in the Five Elements Sect, and while Yue Meng’s aptitude for alchemy was indeed high, she couldn’t take a contracted Spiritual Beast as a disciple.

"Alright, this special training session is over. You can take a good rest over the next few months," Granny Mu said, urging Yue Meng to leave with a motion of her divine sense.

Yue Meng heeded the words, not saying much more, and simply bowed silently, withdrawing from the main hall.

In the corner, Shen Boyi appeared and said, "Sister Mu, thank you for taking care of her."

Granny Mu snorted twice, "That little one is promising on her own."

"Actually, I think it’d be nice for you to accept this little one as a disciple as well," Shen Boyi chuckled.

Granny Mu shouted angrily, "Old thing, are you dreaming, asking me to take your disciple’s Spiritual Beast as my disciple? Are you looking down on me, this old lady?"

"No, no," Shen Boyi quickly waved his hands.

"Get lost," Granny Mu fumed.

"Hehehe,"

With a few sheepish laughs, Shen Boyi placed a storage bag down and said, "This is a little token for you, Sister Mu. I’m off now."

Watching as Shen Boyi disappeared in an instant, Granny Mu reluctantly took the storage bag. As soon as she touched it, she realized something was wrong. This wasn’t a storage bag at all; it was clearly a Spiritual Beast Bag.

Seeing the familiar figure inside, Granny Mu murmured softly, "Consider you having a conscience."

....

"Dong dong dong"

Two hooves, like windborne wheels, rapidly pounded the Immortal Artifact Embryo in front of them, as Dabai muttered, "I just broke through to True Immortal, and this Immortal Artifact Embryo, can I even handle it? That old coot really isn’t a good person!"

Just returned, Shen Boyi’s face darkened, and he quietly appeared behind Dabai, pulling out a small hammer and knocking it on the Fire Qilin’s head.

"You useless thing, do you know Yue Meng can already independently refine a First Revolutions Immortal Pill? And yet you can’t even handle an Immortal Artifact Embryo. Are you even a Fire Qilin?"

"Ouch ouch,"

Dabai held his head, rolling on the ground, tears welling in his big eyes. Shen Boyi’s little hammer wasn’t an ordinary one; it could directly affect a cultivator’s soul. Although it wouldn’t cause any harm, getting knocked by it hurt a lot.

The flames, concentrated to their peak, enveloped the small hammer in Shen Boyi’s hand as he casually struck the unfinished Immortal Artifact embryo twice.

"Boom"

Throwing the completed foundational forged Immortal Sword embryo into the surrounding lava pool, a plume of white mist rose from it.

Looking at the countless gleams in the pool, Shen Boyi was a little disappointed and said, "Still lacking a bit!"

To break through to Heavenly Immortal, the Five Elements Sect at least requires complete mastery of a Five Elements Dao. To break through to Golden Immortal, mastery of at least three Five Elements Dao is needed. To break through beyond Golden Immortal, complete mastery and perfect operation of the Five Elements are required.

"Boss, you are really incredible." Dabai looked at the Immortal Sword in the magma pool, flattering a bit.

"Hmph, if you study well, creating a mere First Revolution Immortal Artifact wouldn’t be anything." Shen Boyi said with a sideways glance.

Dabai smiled awkwardly, he wanted to too, but the difficulty of crafting Immortal Artifacts was too great. His hooves had been ground down by several centimeters recently, and now they were about to become uneven hooves.

"Alright, Yue Meng that girl has been given a break after crafting a First Revolutions Immortal Pill. You should go rest for a few months too."

"Alright, when I come back, I’ll bring the boss some good wine."

Watching Dabai leave with a sway, Shen Boyi couldn’t help but laugh and said, "This little guy."

Seeing Dabai off, Shen Boyi’s eyes focused intently. His gaze, seemingly substantial, stirred the large lava pool into a restless state. Among it, the Immortal Artifact of extremely high quality, already having developed a True Spirit, buzzed with discontent.

"I should try again. Perhaps if I craft a Dao Artifact comparable to a Holy Weapon, I might penetrate the mystery of this Fire Element Dao."

.......

Divine Tree Mansion, this is the name Chen Jiuge gave his residence. As a cultivation cave mansion, how could it do without a name?

Yue Meng, Dabai, Yue Li, Black Eye.

Chen Jiuge looked at the obediently sitting row of Spiritual Beasts and said sternly, "I have a method to increase your cultivation, but there is a very serious side effect."

"That is, it may cause some changes in appearance, or even transform into another type of Spiritual Beast species."

The four beasts exchanged glances, this side effect was a bit much.

"Huff"

Two streams of white breath puffed from Yue Li’s nostrils. With bulging muscles all over, Yue Li slowly stood up and said, "Let me do it."

Seeing the three beasts about to persuade him, Yue Li interrupted, "Past experiences have taught me that strength is the most important."

"Are you really decided?" Chen Jiuge asked somewhat seriously.

With the growth of cultivation and Divine Soul, the number of Lifebound Spirit Beasts Chen Jiuge could contract increased. When Yue Li was retrieved, he had been re-contracted as Chen Jiuge’s Lifebound Spirit Beast.

"I’m certain." Yue Li said firmly.

Seeing those resolute eyes, Chen Jiuge said heavily, "Rest assured, you won’t be disappointed. Follow me!"

To ensure the peace and safety of nurturing the Spiritual Beasts, Chen Jiuge, when previously asked by Grandmaster Zeng about Spiritual Beasts, also asked him to set up a great array in the backyard.

The Five Elements Circulation Array, a simple name but with powerful effects. The core of its formation is connected to a massive Dao vein on the Five-Colored Peak. Though just a branch, it’s still extremely strong, impossible to violently destroy without Golden Immortal Cultivation, making its safety extremely high.

Seated cross-legged in front of Chen Jiuge, Yue Li, over two meters tall, had bronze muscles like massive lumps of flesh, making him not look like a rabbit at all.

"Huff, let’s begin." Silently reciting, Chen Jiuge placed his hand on Yue Li’s brow, and a mysterious power from the Chaos Pearl began to seep in.

As time passed, enormous changes began occurring within Yue Li, the powerful Violent Rabbit bloodline seemed to be stimulated, frantically devouring other bloodlines.

These bloodlines, long suppressed to the corners, had no power to resist. As more bloodlines were devoured, the Violent Rabbit bloodline began undergoing strange changes.

A large amount of Five Elements Divine Crystals piled beside Yue Li began constantly dissolving, with abundant power merging into Yue Li’s body.

True Immortal First Layer Heaven, Triple Layer Heaven, Twelve Layer Heaven, all the way up to True Immortal Thirty-One Layer Heaven, reluctantly coming to a halt.

The dramatically changed Yue Li opened his eyes, lowered his head, clenched his fists, a sharp explosive sound emitted from infinite power, and the immense immortal power flowing within made Yue Li’s heart tremble.

"This is power!" Yue Li roared.

Chen Jiuge nodded in satisfaction, "It seems my worries were unnecessary."
