Chapter 994: Three Half-Demon Saint Grade Demon Pets (Second update, requesting everything)

Among the six Demon Pets attempting to break through, the ones with the highest probability of success were Baitian and Heiye, followed by Aixi, then Kailan, and finally the Crowned Lihuo Phoenix and Yuangungun.

As it turned out, after the two cats broke through, the first to show signs was neither Aixi nor Kailan, who had the blessing of the Tree of Life, but the Crowned Lihuo Phoenix.

This was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for Li Zhangsheng.

Chirp—

Suddenly, the Crowned Lihuo Phoenix let out an unusually loud cry, and its red and white flames surged instantly, its momentum as grand as a rainbow.

In an instant, the red and white flames took the form of a firebird. Because the phoenix and the Vermilion Bird have similar appearances and are both composed of flames, Li Zhangsheng could not tell whether this was a phoenix or a Vermilion Bird, or perhaps both were possible.

The subsequent process was similar to Heiye's; it successfully condensed the Fire Profound Meaning Essence into a red rock.

It only faltered at the final step, mainly because the Fire Profound Meaning Essence was insufficient, causing the red rock to only calcine into some crystalline bodies.

Even though it did not complete the final step, the Crowned Lihuo Phoenix could still be called a Pseudo-Demon Saint level Demon Pet, and its strength had improved significantly, though the increase was not as great as that of a true Saint Grade Spirit Pet.

Although it was not a true Saint Grade Spirit Pet, just like the previous Pseudo-Demon King level, after becoming a Pseudo-Demon Saint level Demon Pet, as long as it was given a certain amount of time, it would definitely be able to complete the breakthrough.

Therefore, in a sense, the Crowned Lihuo Phoenix could also be regarded as a future Saint Grade Spirit Pet.

After becoming a Pseudo-Demon Saint level Demon Pet, the wingspan of the Crowned Lihuo Phoenix exceeded seventy meters, and its momentum increased by another notch compared to before, filled with suffocating pressure.

It must be mentioned that because it was a Pseudo-Demon Saint level Demon Pet, Li Zhangsheng did not receive feedback from the Crowned Lihuo Phoenix's Mystery Origin.

Li Zhangsheng did not feel regret, however, and immediately turned his gaze to the remaining three Demon Pets.

It was not until this moment that Aixi finally showed signs of movement, as countless golden rays condensed into the form of a white tiger.

Unlike the visions condensed by Heiye and the Crowned Lihuo Phoenix, this white tiger possessed immense power and even contained a certain amount of Gold Profound Meaning Origin, which was the Gold Profound Meaning Origin that Aixi had extracted from the Gold Profound Meaning Origin Crystal, thus significantly increasing its probability of breakthrough.

Deep within Aixi's Consciousness Sea, countless Gold Profound Meaning Essence condensed, interspersed with wisps of Gold Profound Meaning Origin.

Driven by these Gold Profound Meaning Origins, the Gold Profound Meaning Essence rapidly condensed into a golden rock.

The next moment, golden flames emerged, which also contained a certain amount of Gold Profound Meaning Origin, causing the speed of the flame calcination to surge; in this aspect, the speed was clearly faster than Heiye's.

Soon, the golden rock was successfully calcined into a crystalline body, emitting a brilliant and dazzling radiance, which caused Aixi's body size to surge, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.

Aixi did not withdraw its consciousness immediately; its consciousness arrived at the Wind Profound Meaning Ocean once again, preparing to condense the Wind Profound Meaning Origin Crystal.

Because Aixi was now a Saint Grade Spirit Pet, the process of condensing the Wind Profound Meaning Origin Crystal could be said to be very smooth.

At this moment, a surge of Mystery Origin poured into the spiritual channel connecting Li Zhangsheng and Aixi, causing the proportion of golden blood in Li Zhangsheng's body to become one or two percent richer.

Up to this point, Li Zhangsheng already possessed three and a half Saint Grade Spirit Pets, which had already exceeded his expectations.

However, human hearts are greedy; Li Zhangsheng watched Kailan and Yuangungun with expectant eyes, hoping that one of them could advance to the Demon Saint level.

Unfortunately, apart from the loud thunder, both Kailan and Yuangungun stopped at the step of condensing the Essence Rock, let alone condensing the Origin Crystal.

Kailan's eyes were full of disappointment, which was heartbreaking to see; Li Zhangsheng hurriedly comforted it with a few words, and its mood improved a little.

As for Yuangungun, it remained its usual carefree self; to it, breaking through was naturally best, but even if it didn't, it wasn't a bad thing. This made Li Zhangsheng decide that before Yuangungun attempted to break through, he must threaten it, so as to force out its potential.

This time, Li Zhangsheng's strength could be said to have surged by a notch in a single day.

Using part of the Treasure King's memories as a standard for evaluation, even if Li Zhangsheng's strength was not yet equal to an ordinary Double-Character King, it was not far off.

An ordinary Double-Character King refers to a Double-Character King who does not have a Demon Emperor level Demon Pet.

Although his strength had risen significantly, Li Zhangsheng's ranking in the Hall of Ten Thousand Kings had not changed for the time being.

To make his ranking in the Hall of Ten Thousand Kings change, Li Zhangsheng's consciousness must enter the Hall of Ten Thousand Kings and input his aura into the Throne without reservation; only then could his ranking change.

It is for this reason that even though most people do not hide their strength, there will always be some people who hide their strength for certain reasons, so one cannot fully trust the rankings in the Hall of Ten Thousand Kings, otherwise one might suffer a loss.

After the Demon Pets attempted to break through, their strength rankings also changed significantly. Aixi, Baitian, and Heiye undoubtedly occupied the top three. Aixi's advantage was its higher Bloodline and race, while Baitian and Heiye possessed quality advantages. The gap between the three was extremely small, and in a one-on-one, no one could guarantee a win.

The one ranked fourth was naturally the Crowned Lihuo Phoenix. Apart from the two-headed dragon, which was definitely at the bottom, the strength of the other main Demon Pets was about the same.

As for the next Bloodline Metamorphosis time for the two-headed dragon, Li Zhangsheng could not calculate an accurate time; it could be today, it could be tomorrow, or perhaps even a year or two.

However, the Purple Sky Leopard-Lin Beast had once entered a state of Bloodline Transition. If it were used for analysis, the higher the bloodline concentration, the longer the cycle for the next Bloodline Metamorphosis.

According to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, the two-headed dragon would fall into a state of Bloodline Metamorphosis within half a year.

Of course, every Demon Pet is a different individual, and there are bound to be differences between individuals. Li Zhangsheng could not be entirely certain that the two-headed dragon's next metamorphosis time would be within half a year, especially since the source of the two-headed dragon's bloodline was the Nine-Faced Dragon God.

A bloodline that is too strong can sometimes be an obstacle.

After sending the Demon Pets back to the training base in the Secret Realm, Li Zhangsheng began to plan, making preparations for things that might happen in the future.

Li Zhangsheng did not take it lightly and had already prepared a way out in advance, though he did not know if it would be useful this time.

Besides the Dark Night King, it was hard to guarantee that other Kings or even Double-Character Kings wouldn't have designs on him, or even conspire with the Dark Night King. Once such a change was discovered, Li Zhangsheng would absolutely use the prepared way out to escape at the first opportunity.

If one even loses their life, what is the point of saving face?

As for what to do if the Dark Night King loses his nerve?

This would actually be a good thing for Li Zhangsheng; after all, with his rate of progress, the longer things are dragged out, the more advantageous it is for him.
