After greeting everyone, Xu Yiling returned to the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
His room was arranged within the Supreme Pontiff Palace, a rule set by Bibi Dong.
After Qian Renxue left, Bibi Dong also let herself go; although Xu Yiling had a room, he never slept in it, always sleeping by Bibi Dong's side.
This made Xu Yiling both excited and tormented.
It's a pity his senior sister was still studying at the academy, otherwise he could have tested the power of the Wolf Fang Mace.
Perhaps awakening his Spirit absorbed too much of Xu Yiling's energy; Xu Yiling lay on the bed, lightly sniffing the fragrance on Bibi Dong's body, and fell asleep.
Not long after Xu Yiling fell asleep, a blue light flashed through his body.
Xu Yiling's consciousness arrived in a mist.
"Wasn't I sleeping? Where is this?"
Xu Yiling looked at the mist in front of him, passed through the hazy mist, and arrived on a grassland.
"Hiss!"
A memory also entered Xu Yiling's mind.
"Hunting Beast Space, a gift from Mother Blue Star."
Xu Yiling wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes, then smiled.
"Indeed, no matter where I am, Mother Blue Star will not abandon me."
The Hunting Beast Space is a gift from Mother Blue Star.
In the Hunting Beast Space, a large number of Spirit Beasts will appear, and killing them has a chance to drop light clusters, which have many uses.
The Hunting Beast Space has seven regions; currently, Xu Yiling is in the E-level region, where only Spirit Masters below level twenty can be.
Xu Yiling summoned his Ruyi Wolf Fang Mace, rested it on his shoulder, and slowly walked forward.
Suddenly, a Soft Bones Rabbit leaped out from the grass; Xu Yiling seized the opportunity and smashed it with a single strike, producing a loud bang that created a pit in the ground, and the Soft Bones Rabbit transformed into a red light cluster.
"Such good luck."
The moment Xu Yiling touched the red light cluster, it transformed into a surge of energy that entered his body. Xu Yiling could clearly feel the improvement in his physique and vital energy; although the increase was not much, it was indeed an improvement.
This excited Xu Yiling; if he worked hard enough, wouldn't he be able to raise his physique to a very strong level?
Xu Yiling knew his physique was somewhat special; even if he were to acquire a spirit ring now, he could get one close to nine hundred years old, but with the Hunting Beast Space, Xu Yiling felt that his first spirit ring would not be worthy of him unless it was a thousand-year spirit ring.
If he had a thousand-year first spirit ring, then Yu Xiaogang's theory would be trash, and he would eventually be killed.
With this motivation, Xu Yiling furiously attacked the rabbit dens ahead.
After a long period of grinding, Xu Yiling had roughly figured out the situation in the Hunting Beast Space; these ordinary Spirit Beasts would only drop three types of light clusters.
Blue light clusters increase spirit power, red light clusters enhance physique and vital energy, and white light clusters boost mental force.
"Phew..."
Xu Yiling felt his strength was about to explode.
He definitely had five hundred jin of strength now, still a bit far from Tang Wulin's thousand jin, but that was when he was nine years old.
Xu Yiling believed that when he was nine, he would definitely surpass Tang Wulin by a lot.
After clearing out all the Soft Bones Rabbits, Xu Yiling continued forward. Passing through a forest, he heard rustling sounds, making him vigilant.
Whoosh!
An extremely fast figure pounced towards Xu Yiling. Xu Yiling felt the threat of death, his scalp tingling, and he suddenly lunged to the right.
Bang—
A loud thud sounded where Xu Yiling had been standing.
A massive giant wolf appeared there. Its fur was dark gray, smooth and shiny, and its eyes were like stars in the night sky, flickering with a faint blue light, full of sharpness and vigilance. Its four limbs were thick and powerful, each step stirring up a gust of wind.
"This is a Storm Devil Wolf, and not just an ordinary one; it's probably an elite Spirit Beast, its size is too big."
Spirit Beasts in the Hunting Beast Space are also categorized.
Ordinary Spirit Beasts, Elite Spirit Beasts, Overlord Spirit Beasts, and BOSS Spirit Beasts.
For Spirit Beasts of the same cultivation and type, elites are more powerful than ordinary Spirit Beasts and drop better items.
As for Overlord Spirit Beasts and BOSS Spirit Beasts, there is a fixed number of them in each region; they do not revive after death like ordinary and elite Spirit Beasts. BOSS Spirit Beasts are also guaranteed to drop light clusters, while Overlord, Elite, and Ordinary ones are not.
"Roar!"
The Storm Devil Wolf roared, its eyes gleaming with ferocity.
The Ruyi Wolf Fang Mace in Xu Yiling's hand cut an astonishing arc, but the cunning Storm Devil Wolf deftly dodged and swiftly counterattacked.
Xu Yiling immediately retracted his Wolf Fang Mace to block in front of him. The Storm Devil Wolf's sharp claws struck the Ruyi Wolf Fang Mace, creating a shower of sparks, and the immense force sent Xu Yiling stumbling back several meters.
"What immense strength, at least a seven to eight hundred-year-old Storm Devil Wolf."
The Storm Devil Wolf's aura was heavy, and its speed was incredibly fast. It suddenly charged at Xu Yiling. Xu Yiling swung the Ruyi Wolf Fang Mace, his fierce moves powerful and heavy.
The battle raged fiercely, the incredibly powerful Wolf Fang Mace striking through the air, each collision with the Storm Devil Wolf causing a strong impact sound and sparks to fly.
With a booming sound, the Storm Devil Wolf was sent flying by Xu Yiling. The giant wolf let out a heart-wrenching howl, its blood splattering on the ground.
At this moment, the Storm Devil Wolf was in a very bad state, blood constantly dripping from its body, and some internal organs even falling out of its wounds.
But Xu Yiling was also in a very bad situation; blood continuously seeped from the wounds torn by the Storm Devil Wolf, and his face was pale.
After all, Xu Yiling had not yet absorbed his first spirit ring; relying purely on his powerful physique to fight the Storm Devil Wolf to this extent was already very strong. A seven to eight hundred-year-old Storm Devil Wolf was something no Spirit Grandmaster would dare to touch.
"You beast, come on!"
The Storm Devil Wolf seemed to understand Xu Yiling's words, letting out a roar and pawing at the ground, suddenly sending several wind blades whistling through the air.
"Damn it! You're not playing fair!"
Xu Yiling didn't expect this hundred-year-old Storm Devil Wolf to be able to use wind-attribute attacks; wasn't that only possible for thousand-year-old Storm Devil Wolves and above?
Xu Yiling's body was instantly severed by the wind blades.
His consciousness returned, and a sharp pain immediately woke Xu Yiling up.
Although the pain was not intense, the feeling of death was very real.
"Yi'er, what's wrong? You look unwell."
Bibi Dong immediately put down her work and walked over, looking worried.
"Teacher, I'm fine, just had a nightmare."
Xu Yiling wiped a cold sweat from his forehead. That damn Storm Devil Wolf, I will definitely get my revenge.
This hundred-year-old Storm Devil Wolf probably managed to use wind blades because it was an Elite type; otherwise, he might not have lost.
"Yi'er, tomorrow I'll take you to absorb a spirit ring."
Bibi Dong hugged Xu Yiling, taking several deep breaths. This familiar scent was so pleasant; Bibi Dong wished Xu Yiling could remain a baby forever so she could always hold him in her arms.
"Teacher, could we wait a few more days?"
"What's wrong?"
"Teacher, you know my physique is special. I feel like after awakening my Spirit, my physique has changed. My body has become much stronger, and I might be able to directly absorb a thousand-year first spirit ring."
