Chapter 473: White Python

As an Iron-Headed Crocodile that had fused with dragon blood and mutated twice, Bai Li circled and danced in the air, summoning wind and rain; the strange phenomenon looked almost indistinguishable from a white dragon.

Several years ago, Bai Li had already reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refinement. If it weren't for Wang Yu's consciousness returning to Blue Star, forcing it to remain in the Qi-deficient Spirit Creek Bay to protect Wang Yu's physical body, it would have advanced long ago.

Now that it had reached this place with a medium-sized first-rank spirit vein supplemented by a small Spirit Gathering Array, with a sufficient supply of pure Qi, it naturally could not control itself and began to impact the second-rank realm on its own.

As a true disciple of the Four Symbols Gate, Wang Yu naturally knew quite a bit about the advancement of demon beasts.

He had even specifically studied Iron-Headed Crocodiles, but those were all ordinary Iron-Headed Crocodiles.

Iron-Headed Crocodiles had the potential for the mid-second rank, meaning that under normal circumstances, this type of demon beast could at most advance to the mid-Foundation Establishment level. Afterward, it would be limited by the beast's species and bloodline power, unable to further improve its strength.

If there were no accidents, Lü Lin, this black-green Iron-Eating Beast, could at most improve to this level.

But Xiao Bai was different. When it was just hatched, it was already a mutated spirit beast, and later, after fusing with dragon essence blood, it mutated again. So, no one could say for sure what level its final strength could reach, but at the very least, it should be much higher than Lü Lin's upper limit.

While Wang Yu was pondering this, Bai Li's long roar in the air stopped. After letting out a painful groan, its body suddenly expanded by a circle, and wisps of bloodstains appeared between the scales on its body. Then, it flicked its tail and plunged directly into the dark clouds higher up.

In an instant, the dark clouds in the air rolled, and bursts of thunderous sounds came from within, and wisps of electric light began to flicker.

The wild wind below became even more howling and violent.

Witnessing this scene, Wang Yu didn't even think before patting the storage bag at his waist. A dozen small bottles flew out in one breath, and after he pointed at them with his finger—

"Bang," "Bang."

These small bottles shattered one after another, and over a dozen colorful pills sprayed out from within.

"Go."

Wang Yu gave a low shout and flicked his sleeve upward.

"Whoosh," "Whoosh."

The dozen or so pills shot out like raindrops, and after a flash, they all plunged into the dark clouds.

Seeing this, Wang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He had prepared these pills long ago; a small portion was purchased from the General Affairs Hall of the Four Symbols Gate, and most were refined by himself. They were all special pills that were slightly helpful for spirit beasts to break through.

As for the rest, he could no longer help. Whether it could successfully break through depended on Xiao Bai's own ability.

Below, the other Iron-Headed Crocodile, Da Lü, had also stood up, looking at the churning pond beside it for a while, then looking up at the abnormal celestial phenomenon high in the sky, looking silly and stunned, seemingly unaware of what was happening.

The dark clouds in the air continued to roll, the electric light flickered, and the thunder grew more muffled with each sound.

The wild wind became increasingly bone-chilling.

Witnessing this strange phenomenon, Wang Yu's expression gradually became solemn.

Just then, a huge thunderclap "Boomed" high in the sky.

A thick bolt of lightning shot down from the dark clouds, hitting exactly on the ground beside the black-green Iron-Headed Crocodile. A scorched pit over two meters wide immediately appeared.

Da Lü was startled and jumped into the pond with a splash.

A moment later, the beast only exposed its large head and let out a threatening low roar at the sky.

In the dark clouds, countless bean-sized raindrops suddenly fell, but after a cold wind swept through, they turned into dense white hailstones, smashing fiercely onto the ground around the pond.

Da Lü had thick skin and flesh, so it didn't care about the falling hailstones and still let out unwilling roars at the sky.

Above Wang Yu, there was a soft sound in the void, and a semi-transparent light screen like a giant umbrella emerged.

This was not a defensive spell, just a mental power barrier.

Although star mental power was greatly weakened in this world, the barrier it formed naturally had no problem blocking some hailstones.

The dense hailstones fell on the semi-transparent barrier and bounced off one after another, unable to shake the barrier in the slightest.

Just then, a dragon roar much louder than before came from the dark clouds, and an aura many times stronger than before swept out from within.

Then, the dark clouds parted, and a single-horned white python about a zhang long danced out from within.

The single horn on the python's head was as crystalline as snow, and its body was covered with dense, thick white scales, but its eyes had become as deep blue as glaciers. Looking at its abdomen and limbs, they were empty, as if they had vanished into thin air.

Seeing this, Wang Yu was somewhat surprised.

But before he could react, the single-horned white python opened its mouth toward the pond below, and a mass of white, hazy cold air sprayed down like a tide.

"Sizzle."

With the pond as the center, the ground within a radius of a mu instantly condensed into a layer of thick white ice, and the entire pond turned into a glacier. The black-green Iron-Headed Crocodile in the pond was directly frozen into a crystalline ice sculpture.

"Xiao Bai."

Wang Yu gave a low shout, his voice a bit deeper.

Only then did the single-horned white python in the air react. After circling, it slowly landed in front of Wang Yu. The moment it landed, thick limbs suddenly popped out from its abdomen, steadily supporting its massive body.

"Hiss, hiss."

Bai Li skillfully pressed its head against the young man's thigh, letting out intimate low hisses.

Only then did Wang Yu's heart relax slightly. He looked at the frozen pond and Da Lü, who had turned into an ice sculpture, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. He immediately pinched a spell with one hand.

"Puff."

A white halo emerged behind him, and wisps of white flames surged within the halo, turning into a white sun before slowly rising into the air.

The temperature in the void instantly soared, making the air scorching hot.

Such a high temperature seemed to make Bai Li, who was lying on Wang Yu's leg, feel very uncomfortable. With a hiss, it curled its body into a ball.

Wang Yu just pointed his finger toward the pond.

The white sun immediately drifted slowly toward the top of the pond. Wherever it passed, heat waves rolled, and the frost below quickly melted and disintegrated.

The wet body of the black-green Iron-Headed Crocodile soon floated on the pond water. Although it looked listless after thawing, it was clearly unharmed.

Seeing this, Wang Yu finally felt relieved.

"Bang."

The white sun burst into thin air, and wisps of white flames shot toward Wang Yu, vanishing into his body in a flash.

The scorching feeling in the void quickly disappeared.

Only then did Wang Yu lower his head and carefully examine the white spirit beast in front of him that had already advanced to the second rank.

Bai Li was also raising its neck, its eyes meeting Wang Yu's gaze, and its eyes actually revealed a very clear intention to please.

"Xiao Bai, now that you have advanced to the second rank, what new skills have you learned?" Wang Yu didn't stand on ceremony; after stroking the white spirit beast's head, he asked directly. ===== CHAPTER 474 =====
