Chapter 1452: Chongming Bird (Second update, requesting everything)

Among the corpses this time, there were no fewer than ten Divine Beast corpses, including six Qilin alone, as well as an Ancestral Crystal Dragon, Ancestral Red Dragon, Ancestral Silver Dragon, Golden-Haired Roar, Chongming Bird, Mountain Giant Ape, Red Luan, and Ice Crystal Phoenix.

The final Red Luan and Ice Crystal Phoenix were slain by the Four Seas Dragon Clan; once the Zhou Tian Star Dou Forbidden Array took shape, the Phoenix Clan had no time to retrieve their corpses and could only choose to leave.

After defeating the Xuan Emperor and the Ink Qilin, Li Zhangsheng had exchanged some treasures with the Dragon Clan to obtain them.

The Red Luan could be used to extract Phoenix Essence Blood, and the Ice Crystal Phoenix for Ice Crystal Phoenix Essence Blood, but they could be absorbed by the Profound Apertures Li Zhangsheng opened, which would be more or less helpful.

As for the Xuan Emperor's Five-Colored Divine Ox, it had already turned to dust and ashes along with the Xuan Emperor, ultimately leaving no bones behind.

Li Zhangsheng quickly extracted the Spirit Essence, with his first target being the corpse of the Demon Emperor-level Chongming Bird; the accumulation over this period meant he had nearly ten jars of Chongming Bird Essence Blood in his hands, and as long as he refined this corpse, he believed his Heaven-Eyed Bird could directly evolve into a Chongming Bird.

Even though the Demon Emperor-level Chongming Bird's corpse was difficult to handle, it took only half an hour at most for the massive Chongming Bird corpse to be transformed into eight jars of Spirit Essence; combined with his existing stock, it was enough to allow the Bright-Eyed Bird to evolve into a Chongming Bird.

Soon, the Bright-Eyed Bird devoured the Chongming Bird Essence Blood, then hovered in mid-air, radiating intense light from the inside out, giving the impression of a gentle sun.

During this process, the Bloodline Imprint within the Bright-Eyed Bird's body climbed steadily, and soon, Jianhua Bai Guang began to permeate its body surface.

Li Zhangsheng did not wait and continued to extract Spirit Essence, this time from the corpses of the Ancestral Red Dragon, Zixiao Qilin, Ink Qilin, and Binghuo Qilin.

Suddenly, the Two-Footed Golden Crow let out a long cry toward the sky, looking exceptionally excited; it had successfully promoted to Legendary quality, becoming the first Legendary quality Demon Pet in Ning Bizhen's hands.

Besides the Lava Origin and Space-Time Origin, the Two-Footed Golden Crow had also gradually swallowed two stalks of Fire Spirit Grass and five Moon Soul Star Snatching Pills, with three Moon Soul Star Snatching Pills remaining.

Ning Bizhen was naturally overjoyed; after playing with the Two-Footed Golden Crow for a while, she continued to immerse herself in the Hall of Ten Thousand Kings, continuing to find rulers of medium-sized countries to discuss borrowing people.

Not long after, the Bright-Eyed Bird's body surface was completely covered by Jianhua Bai Guang; its body size surged rapidly, its colors became variegated and exceptionally gorgeous, and it finally successfully evolved into a Chongming Bird.

From the feedback of his Mental Power, the Chongming Bird's quality had risen from Top-Grade to the middle stage of Half-Step Epic.

Li Zhangsheng had just obtained five portions of Light Grass; if he added the three remaining Moon Soul Star Snatching Pills, there was a high possibility of allowing the Chongming Bird to reach Epic quality.

Besides this, Li Zhangsheng also took out two portions of Nine Heavens Clear Qi, intending to let the Chongming Bird attempt to break through to the Demon Emperor level.

Although the Chongming Bird could terminate its Temporary Contract with Li Zhangsheng at any time once it promoted to the Demon Emperor level, the Chongming Bird had been raised for so long and they had deep feelings, so it naturally would not do such a foolish thing.

While the Chongming Bird continued to be "busy," Li Zhangsheng spent over an hour finally finishing the extraction of the four Divine Beast corpses.

Among these four Divine Beasts, the most difficult one was the Ink Qilin; the extraction difficulty was higher than that of the Zixiao Qilin, which was also at the Demon Emperor level. This should be because it had cultivated the Water Great Dao, so even as a corpse, it still possessed miraculous properties.

In fact, it was not that Li Zhangsheng hadn't thought about letting his Demon Pets cultivate the Great Dao, but this was not something that could be achieved overnight; after all, even the Ink Qilin hadn't perfected the Water Great Dao after spending so many years, and that was with the assistance of a Seeking Dao Jade Fragment.

The reason Li Zhangsheng's speed of comprehension far exceeded the Ink Qilin's was not only because his Seeking Dao Jade was of a higher grade, but also related to being a Monster Tamer and the Wisdom Fruit.

The Wisdom Fruit goes without saying, and Monster Tamers cultivate Mental Power, which incidentally improves other abilities related to the brain, naturally including comprehension.

Without the assistance of the Seeking Dao Jade, given the Demon Pets' comprehension, it would likely take years or even decades just to get started.

With that time, it would be better to improve their strength in other areas and wait until they could advance no further before going to comprehend the Great Dao; after all, with strong enemies surrounding them, they could not temporarily focus their energy on such things.

After the extraction was completed, looking at the just-right amount of Zixiao Qilin Essence Blood, Li Zhangsheng breathed a sigh of relief. He was truly afraid it wouldn't be enough; otherwise, he would have had to "borrow" some from the Qilin Clan, and he believed the Qilin Clan would surely be generous.

While the Thunder Qilin absorbed the Zixiao Qilin Essence Blood, Li Zhangsheng also handed the sufficient amount of Ancestral Red Dragon Essence Blood to the Secondary Ancestral Red Dragon to absorb.

The Ink Qilin Essence Blood was handed to Ning Bizhen's Water-Avoiding Golden-Eyed Beast to absorb, allowing it to obtain a second bloodline.

The final Binghuo Qilin Essence Blood was likewise handed to Ning Bizhen's Red Smoke Steed to refine.

In this way, Ning Bizhen's strength could improve a little more; by then, even if her combat power was not equal to the Wudi, the gap would not be large, and it should at least be at the level of the Source Emperor.

Chirp~

At this moment, a loud cry rang out. Li Zhangsheng cast his gaze over and saw wisps of Rule Power emerging on the Chongming Bird's body surface. It had luckily comprehended Rule Power, though he did not know if it could become a true Demon Emperor-level Temporary Spirit Pet.

Not long after, the Chongming Bird opened its eyes, having truly promoted to the Demon Emperor level, becoming the second Demon Emperor-level Temporary Spirit Pet after the Myriad Manifestation Spirit-Devouring Mouse.

【Spirit Beast Name】: Chongming Bird (Mature Stage, condenses Rule Power, skill power doubled, and causes continuous damage to enemies; Rule Protection: exempts part of the damage, depending on the opponent's realm.)

【Spirit Beast Realm】: Demon Emperor 1st Grade

【Spirit Beast Race】: Superior Divine Beast

【Spirit Beast Quality】: Epic

【Spirit Beast Bloodline】: None

【Spirit Beast Attribute】: Light

【Spirit Beast Status】: Healthy

【Spirit Beast Weakness】: None

In just over an hour, the Chongming Bird's strength had undergone a earth-shaking change, rising by one or two grades in every aspect; with its current strength, it could definitely easily defeat ten of itself before the evolution.

Li Zhangsheng felt deeply gratified; what he valued was not the Chongming Bird's combat power, but its auxiliary ability.

Since evolving into a Chongming Bird, it naturally comprehended all the skills possessed by a Chongming Bird, causing the Chongming Bird's auxiliary ability to be greatly improved. Not only did it possess various recovery, defense, buff, and purification auxiliary skills, but it could also See Through Falsehood and pierce through truth and lies; it could definitely be called the best support.

Additionally, because the Chongming Bird promoted to the Demon Emperor level, the Light Blessing skill could temporarily increase the all-around abilities of Demon Emperor-level Demon Pets by 10%.

Following the Chongming Bird, the Secondary Ancestral Red Dragon successfully evolved into an Ancestral Red Dragon, and subsequently, the Water-Avoiding Golden-Eyed Beast and the Red Smoke Steed also successively obtained their second bloodlines, their strength having improved more or less, leaving only the Thunder Qilin yet to finish.
