Chapter 145: Nourishing Oneself with One's Own Blood

The foxes in the Soul Beast Forest now have an ample daily food supply, along with a steady provision of Fox Blood Pills and Soul Power Pills, so their Cultivation is rising in leaps and bounds.

If the Spirit Masters outside were to see this, they would likely be filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred, feeling that they don't even live as well as a fox.

Ever since Xiaobai evolved to five tails, its Cultivation speed has become much faster.

Added to Jerry's medicinal pills, it is now over nine hundred years old; evolving into a thousand-year Soul Beast will happen in these next few days.

The six-tailed fox from before still hasn't evolved, even though it has eaten quite a few Fox Blood Pills.

It neither evolves nor breeds offspring, looking down on those foxes with fewer tails. No wonder six-tailed foxes are so rare; if they don't breed, it would be strange if they were numerous!

It was a waste of effort to raise it for so long.

However, many foxes have now evolved to four tails, and I believe five and six tails will follow soon.

Sometimes, surprises always arrive quietly when people least expect them.

A three-tailed fox, with the support of Jerry's Soul Power Pills, broke through the thousand-year mark, and its tails grew directly to six.

Six-tailed fox, you are finally no longer a lonely fox!

Seeing the newly evolved six-tailed fox, the original one was also very happy, circling the newcomer and yipping loudly.

It is a bit of a pity, though; the joy was premature, as both are male foxes.

With the first one here, can the second be far behind?

The answer is: not far.

These days, three-tailed and four-tailed foxes have been breaking through the thousand-year mark one after another, and suddenly there are seven or eight more six-tailed foxes.

The evolution of the four-tailed foxes is also to six tails; as expected, seven-tailed foxes are not so easy to appear.

Now that there are suddenly many six-tailed foxes, Jerry has clearly noticed that these foxes now have small cliques; the multi-tailed foxes look down on those with fewer tails than themselves, and most of the time they stay with foxes that have the same number of tails.

Moreover, even among foxes, a situation of Bloodline Suppression has emerged; a six-tailed fox of over a thousand years can actually suppress a three-tailed fox of over two thousand years.

This indicates that a hierarchy has appeared in the fox population; previously, some foxes lived alone, while others lived in groups of three or five, so there was no hierarchy.

Now that Jerry has gathered them together, the numbers have increased, and a hierarchy has naturally been born!

Xiaobai is finally about to break through the thousand-year mark; this time, Jerry will not be a hindrance.

The breakthrough was very fast; after the breakthrough, Xiaobai evolved directly to seven tails, growing two tails at once. It seems Xiaobai's bloodline is truly not low.

After Xiaobai broke through to seven tails, its body size surged; Jerry measured it, and when Xiaobai lifted its head, it was a full 1.7 meters tall, with a body length of 3.2 meters including the tail.

I can't call it Xiaobai anymore; let's call it Dabai!

After the breakthrough, Xiaobai ran toward Jerry, pouncing into Jerry's arms as always, but this time, instead of receiving Jerry's embrace, it knocked Jerry over directly. Xiaobai felt a bit strange and paused for a moment, but didn't think much of it, simply sticking out its tongue to lick Jerry's face.

"Xiaobai, you've grown up now, I can't hold you anymore! From now on, you shall be called Dabai!"

Only then did Xiaobai react, looking around to see that the foxes nearby had all become small, and as it gazed at them, they all subconsciously dodged; only then did it realize that it had grown up!

Dabai looked at Jerry, then nudged Jerry with its head, before turning its body to the side and looking back at Jerry.

Jerry understood Dabai's meaning; it was asking him to ride on its back. Jerry quickly stood up and climbed onto Dabai's back.

Seeing Jerry sit on top, Dabai began to run happily through the forest, calling out as it ran with Jerry, while the surrounding foxes all began to dodge one after another.

After playing for a while, Dabai brought Jerry back to the Small Courtyard.

Jerry drew some of Dabai's blood and began to refine pills. Dabai watched Jerry, then lay down to the side without making a sound.

The Fox Blood Pill refined from seven-tailed fox blood reached a medicinal potency of forty-six times.

Suddenly, Jerry thought of something: refine a Fox Blood Pill using Dabai's blood, and then have Dabai consume it—hehehe!

In any case, Dabai would recover a few days after having blood drawn; if not drawn, the blood would just stay at that amount and not increase. Using one's own bloodline to nourish oneself—this idea immediately appeared in Jerry's mind.

In that case, if I use Hu Liena's blood to refine a Fox Blood Pill and then have her consume it, could that strengthen her bloodline?

Subsequently, Jerry fed the Fox Blood Pill refined from Dabai's blood to Dabai, but since Dabai had just had blood drawn, the effect of the Fox Blood Pill was actually to replenish the blood Dabai had lost, rather than providing an enhancement.

Done for! Wasted one; I should have waited until Dabai had recovered on its own before giving it to it, otherwise this Fox Blood Pill just turned into a Blood Replenishing Pill!

Over the next few days, Jerry fed Dabai some blood-replenishing food, finally nursing Dabai back to its pre-blood-draw state, and then fed it another Fox Blood Pill. Once this pill entered Dabai's body, it was immediately absorbed.

Perhaps because it was its own blood, it was relatively easy to absorb.

After absorption, it did not elevate the bloodline, but rather strengthened the existing one.

Overall, Dabai felt stronger; subsequently, Jerry fed Xiaobai Fox Blood Pills for several consecutive days, but the strengthening effect became weaker and weaker.

Dabai's Cultivation didn't increase much, but its strength had multiplied.

For example, whereas Dabai used to jump over four meters, now it could jump fifteen meters in one leap, and Dabai's power had also increased significantly.

The thousand-year-old Dabai also awakened its own ability, which turned out to be Illusion.

A very realistic Illusion, only the range was a bit small.

Jerry had felt before that Dabai was a bit different; after all, the foxes here were easy to distinguish—for instance, Fire Foxes were red, Ice Foxes were sky blue, Wind Foxes were azure, and Thunder Foxes were purple.

Jerry had seen Hu Liena's Demon Fox martial soul; it was orange.

Dabai, however, was white, and Jerry had previously thought it should be a Light Fox. The records of the Spirit Hall mentioned two types of foxes, light and dark, from a long time ago, but there were no records of their colors at that time. According to Jerry's initial deduction, a Light Fox should be white, and a Dark Fox black.

As it turns out, I have now discovered that the white fox actually has the ability to create illusions; this should be called an Illusion Fox, a new discovery!

Back when Dabai was still small, Jerry was able to pick it out at a glance precisely because its fur was different from the other foxes, and now it has brought Jerry a huge surprise.

Xiaobai was clearly just born not long ago, so Jerry went to check the records of the Spirit Hall.

He discovered that this Xiaobai had been caught by a Spirit Master in the Extreme North and then brought to Wuhun City. It was originally going to be sent to an auction house, but upon learning that Soul Beast trading was not allowed there, the Spirit Master had to keep it.

Eventually, someone reported the Soul Beast trade, and the Patrol Team of the Spirit Hall went directly to inquire. After the situation was explained clearly, they did not arrest the Spirit Master, but they did seize Xiaobai, and considering it was a first offense, they even gave him a sum of compensation.

Afterward, they informed the Spirit Master that Soul Beast trading was not allowed in Wuhun City; this time was because he didn't know, but if he offended again, he would be thrown directly into the dungeon.

Finally, Xiaobai was released into the Soul Beast Forest.

So Xiaobai had that kind of experience; but then again, Xiaobai looked mischievous when it was young, so it was likely that it had snuck out to play and was caught by the Spirit Master because of that.

This also illustrates one point: there is a population of white foxes in the Extreme North.

Thinking of the Extreme North, Jerry suddenly thought of the Mirror Image Beast in the nearby Frozen Forest; Oscar's Sixth Spirit Skill came from a Mirror Image Beast, and it even dropped a soul bone.

For this kind of Soul Beast that can provide heaven-defying soul skills, Jerry still needs to study it carefully.

When he has time, he will have to go look for it.

Although Jerry has the heart to help the Soul Beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest, as for Soul Beasts in other forests, unless they are rare, Jerry cannot manage to protect them all.

There are acquaintances, no, familiar beasts, inside the Star Dou Great Forest; Jerry can control them so they do not walk out of the great forest, but as for other forests, forget it, he is not familiar with them!

This is also the reason why Jerry, despite currently having the ability to awaken and perform Healing on Gu Yuena beneath Life Lake, does not go to awaken her.

It is just that Gu Yue has always been thinking about leading the Soul Beasts to counterattack humanity, but that has been a matter of over ten thousand years; Soul Beasts do not have written records, so how would the current Soul Beasts know about these things?

As long as they have a place to survive in the forest, they will not run around randomly.
