Chapter 146: Plotting Against the Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor

"Meow meow~"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked up at Bai Zhou, showing a pleading expression, tilting its head and acting cute.

"Go away, go away, this pill is very expensive, I'll give you another one next time."

Bai Zhou's face darkened, and he said speechlessly.

Although the pill was obtained largely because he fleeced the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's luck, the main factor was his Wishing System; he could only accumulate 1 wish per day, which was still very precious.

One pill down, it would be fine if the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's cultivation could increase a bit.

Unfortunately, a Soul King grade pill was still a bit lacking; it was barely enough to serve as a candy for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and once it entered its body, it was like a stone sinking into the ocean, completely useless.

Even if it really increased its cultivation by a few years, compared to its combat power comparable to a hundred-thousand-year cultivation, it wasn't even a drop in the bucket.

It wouldn't even make a splash.

Giving it to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Bai Zhou felt, was a waste of a heavenly treasure.

Better not next time.

"Woo-woo..."

Upon hearing this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's face immediately drooped, looking pitiful.

Seeing this, Bai Zhou was completely unmoved.

He took out a Soul Increasing Pill for himself and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Hum—"

The medicinal power of the Soul King pill was almost ten times that of the Soul Ancestor pill, and the terrifying medicinal power slowly spread through Bai Zhou's body.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion had definitely chewed it, which was why the medicinal power had exploded.

Bai Zhou had swallowed it, so the medicinal power naturally spread more slowly.

Of course, with Bai Zhou's body, chewing it directly wouldn't be a problem, but having it explode inside his body was still uncomfortable, like eating a ton of spicy strips.

Bai Zhou had no masochistic tendencies, so he honestly circulated his soul power to digest the medicinal power.

……

Two hours later.

Bai Zhou successfully digested the 4 Soul Increasing Pills, and his soul power level rose to level 55.

Theoretically, the soul power required for level 51-52 is far lower than for level 54-55, but the Soul Increasing Pill could ignore the gap and increase it directly, neither more nor less.

Bai Zhou felt that his physical strength had increased several times over, and his overall attributes had also risen significantly.

Bai Zhou estimated his current comprehensive combat power; it should have long surpassed that of a Soul Saint.

Especially when using his fifth soul skill, "Blue Silver Crystal Armor," combined with his physical strength.

High attack + top-tier physical armor + thorns armor.

Smashing an ordinary Soul Saint with one punch was definitely easy.

However, he might still be a bit short of a Soul Douluo.

"Meow..."

Seeing Bai Zhou open his eyes, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion let out a cry, its dark golden eyes full of amazement.

Because it was next to Bai Zhou, it could clearly feel the increase in his strength.

In just a short moment, the aura on Bai Zhou's body had increased more than tenfold! This was truly outrageous...

You have to know, for them, soul beasts, to achieve such a large increase, they would have to cultivate for at least several thousand years or swallow some seventy-to-eighty-thousand-year heavenly treasures suitable for their attributes, plus decades of digestion, to achieve such an increase in strength.

And this human in front of it had used only two short hours...

And it could also see that the source of everything was the pill it had just eaten, which tasted mediocre but contained a large amount of energy.

This pill could indeed increase its cultivation by ten or so years, but for it, it was truly like a drop in the bucket.

But if it were to transform into a human and then take the pill, would it be able to have the same advancement speed as Bai Zhou...

And with its talent, if it transformed, there would definitely be no bottlenecks. If it continued to advance at this speed, reaching the legendary level 100 of humans didn't seem too difficult... who knows, it might even break through the limit and become a god...

The more the Three-Eyed Golden Lion thought about it, the more tempted it became, and the more it longed to transform into a human.

It was just that after transforming, although its source power would remain, it would have to discard this ten-thousand-year cultivation.

It would also lose the endless lifespan of an Auspicious Beast.

This made it hesitate, not knowing how to choose.

……

"Comfortable, I can have a good sleep tonight~" Bai Zhou didn't care what the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was thinking; he only knew that a Soul Emperor... no, becoming a god was just around the corner!

Well, of course, Bai Zhou wouldn't be in such a hurry.

Although taking pills had no side effects, the rapid increase in strength would cause his control over his own body to decline.

What Bai Zhou needed was to achieve perfect control over his body, which could increase his comprehensive combat power by about 10%-20%.

Although it was only 10-20%, this was on top of his strongest combat power, and it was permanent; even after becoming a god, after achieving perfect control, this increase would still be effective, and possibly even stronger.

Similar to a "self-created soul skill."

Of course, the main thing was that the number of wishes was precious, and it was impossible to use them all for pills; that would be too wasteful.

Sometimes, some things were infinitely more precious than pills. Before, his luck wasn't good, and he might have failed the wish, but now with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, he could naturally try it out.

Bai Zhou lowered his head slightly, his gaze falling on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, his eyes carrying an inexplicable smile.

This Three-Eyed Golden Lion really was a big treasure...

"Meow..."

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion sensed Bai Zhou's strange gaze, felt an inexplicable chill down its back, and subconsciously shrank its neck.

"Haha, alright, alright, it's getting late, let's sleep~"

Bai Zhou laughed, picked up the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and gently placed it on the bed.

"Meow~"

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion let out a cry, then leaped lightly, directly snatching the brand-new memory foam pillow Bai Zhou had just wished for.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion wasn't heavy, but sitting on the pillow, it still sank in a large chunk, forming a small nest shape.

"Fine, as long as you like it..."

Bai Zhou twitched his mouth, but didn't mind, took out another pillow, and lay down himself.

Although he had long since stopped needing to sleep, but...

Sleeping in is really comfortable.

……

……

The next morning, Bai Zhou returned to Shrek Academy.

Originally, Bai Zhou wanted to bring the Three-Eyed Golden Lion back to the academy, and they had even reached the gate of Shrek Academy.

But the Three-Eyed Golden Lion probably sensed something, grabbed the ground, and refused to go in no matter what.

Bai Zhou guessed it was because of Elder Mu.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion should be able to hide its aura from Elder Mu, but it might be afraid of being caught on the spot...

And then being captured and investigated.

That would really be the end of it.

Bai Zhou understood this and could only rent another small courtyard for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to stay in temporarily.

Well, the main thing was that Bai Zhou had prepared enough rations for it to eat for a week.

The reason he didn't keep it in Xian Lin'er's courtyard was also for fear of being discovered by her.

After all, Xian Lin'er also liked cute little animals and would definitely be unable to resist picking up the Three-Eyed Golden Lion and petting it fiercely.

Titled Douluo would subconsciously investigate everything around them.

If she only saw it, Xian Lin'er would definitely not be able to see through the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's identity.

But if she held it in her arms and investigated...

Well, that would be the end of it.

Bai Zhou was also avoiding this, hiding the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to prevent accidents.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was his mascot, and Bai Zhou didn't want it to die just like that.

Besides, it wasn't just a mascot...

Bai Zhou would still need the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's assistance to trick the Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor in the future...
