Xu Ran saw the situation, patted his body, and said, "Alright, now that the body has broken through its limits, it needs to settle down well. You haven’t rested for three and a half days, so let’s go back now!"
"Chirp---"
Little White heard this and happily chirped, its voice echoed throughout the mountain stream.
It had wanted its master to go back and rest for a long ti, if not for this lucky breakthrough of limits, who knows how long it would have been.
Instantly, Xu Ran lay down on Little White’s back, closed his eyes, and began to rest.
Soon, Little White carried Xu Ran back to the Xu Family courtyard. Once they landed, Lian Ji walked up and saw Xu Ran, who was already asleep on Little White’s back. Her face was full of heartache, her eyes turned red, and she couldn’t stop the tears from falling.
Even so, Lian Ji still didn’t make any noise. She carefully carried Xu Ran off Little White’s back and took him inside to rest.
Lian Ji knew that since the [Poisonous Snake Massacre Village] event seven months ago, Xu Ran had entered an intense cultivation process. Except during als, she couldn’t see her son at all.
This ti, Xu Ran didn’t co back ho for three days. If it weren’t for Little White returning daily to ensure their safety, she and Xu Binghu would have gathered the whole village to search the mountains for him.
...
Two days later.
Xu Ran woke up after a two-day sleep and imdiately took Little White into the Great Mountain.
When they were leaving, Lian Ji wanted Xu Ran to rest a few more days, but she couldn’t stop him. Moreover, Lian Ji couldn’t fly, so she could only let Xu Ran and Little White leave.
"Little White, today we’re going to hunt down so Demon Beasts in the Great Mountain and test the power of [Immortal Sword Skill] and [Annihilation Tribulation Light]!"
Xu Ran sat on Little White’s back, his face full of anticipation.
"Chirp----"
Little White let out a long cry and carried Xu Ran directly into the depths of the Great Mountain.
"Little White, you don’t have to stay by my side all the ti. Otherwise, no Demon Beasts would dare co near, and how can I test the power of [Immortal Sword Skill] and [Annihilation Tribulation Light]?"
Xu Ran looked at Little White beside him, feeling a bit helpless.
In the Great Mountain, there were few Demon Beasts that could match Little White’s aura. If it were nearby, no Demon Beasts would co close.
Little White glanced at its master Xu Ran and then returned to the sky, its aura disappearing instantly.
As a result.
The mont Little White left, rustling sounds ca from behind Xu Ran.
"Already here?"
Xu Ran scanned around, his gaze suddenly focusing, and swiftly using [Wind Control Skill], he moved like an arrow to the tree trunk beside him, keeping his eyes fixed on the three-ter-high bush, his face showing delight as he watched the Demon Beast erge from it.
"Copper Cat!"
A cat demon covered in bronze color appeared, its entire body seed extrely hard. The mont it saw Xu Ran, it grinned, its teeth gleaming with a sharp light.
According to the Body Refining Manual, Copper Cats are extrely tough Demon Beasts, with fur like iron and extrely fast speed. Very difficult to deal with, if not for their smaller size, they would certainly be powerful Demon Beasts in the Great Mountain.
When Xu Ran saw this Copper Cat, joy filled his eyes.
"This Copper Cat has high defense, just perfect for testing the power of [Immortal Sword Skill]!"
For the people of the Great Wilderness Border Village, the Copper Cat is an unsolvable Demon Beast. Upon encounter, there’s only one word: escape.
But for Xu Ran, the conditions are perfect, making the Copper Cat an excellent test subject.
Similarly, when Little White’s aura disappeared and the Copper Cat appeared, it also showed great interest in Xu Ran. Its blood-red eyes cast over him, emitting a low growl, the sound resembling a mix of tiger and cat.
A fierce glint flashed in the Copper Cat’s eyes, with a low roar it swiftly dashed towards Xu Ran, its speed astonishing. Even though Xu Ran was on the tree, the Copper Cat could easily leap onto it.
Xu Ran, now just one year and seven months old, only half the size of the Copper Cat’s body.
Seeing this, Xu Ran quickly retreated, instantly moving back to the branch behind him, and the branch he had been standing on was directly snapped by the Copper Cat’s pounce.
Seeing this, Xu Ran was sowhat surprised, "This Cat Demon looks small in size, but unexpectedly, its strength is so imnse, it can directly snap a branch comparable to its body!"
After marveling for a mont, Xu Ran used [Wind Control Skill], the airflow around his body quickly shifted, and he instantly appeared behind the Copper Cat, quickly forming hand seals, and in a blink of an eye, a pocket-sized flying sword appeared in his hand.
"Whoosh--"
Then, the pocket-sized flying sword fiercely flew towards the Copper Cat’s back, directly plunging into the Cat Demon’s body.
"The Copper Cat’s defense isn’t as strong as I imagined!"
Witnessing this, Xu Ran was sowhat shocked.
After all, the Body Refining Manual emphasized the Copper Cat’s high defense, speed, inherently fierce nature, and how common people should escape imdiately upon encountering it.
Originally, Xu Ran held expectations for the Copper Cat as a Demon Beast, hoping to properly test the power of [Immortal Sword Skill]. However, the pocket-sized flying sword directly penetrated its body.
Actually, Xu Ran didn’t realize that it wasn’t that the Copper Cat didn’t match the description in the Body Refining Manual, but rather the power of [Immortal Sword Skill] was too strong and directly broke through the Copper Cat’s defense.
While Xu Ran was sighing in relief, the Copper Cat struck by the pocket-sized flying sword fell from the branch.
"Thud" sounded as its body hit the ground heavily, raising a cloud of dust.
Xu Ran picked up the Copper Cat’s corpse, examined it thoroughly, and found it was utterly dead.
"Looks like I need to find stronger Demon Beasts, otherwise I can’t truly test the power of [Immortal Sword Skill]!"
With that, Xu Ran called out to Little White in the sky, once again seating himself on its back.
"Little White, let’s delve deeper into the Great Mountain; the Demon Beasts here aren’t strong enough!"
Little White nodded and flew towards the depths of the Great Mountain.
Given its previous encounters in the Great Mountain, as they moved deeper, Little White was unwilling to leave Xu Ran’s side, fearing encountering the mysterious mountain peak or the Snake King.
Even facing the Snake King’s guardians would be troubleso.
Seeing Little White’s nervous deanor, Xu Ran asked, "What’s wrong, Little White? Are there any Demon Beasts in these mountains you don’t want to encounter?"
Little White’s face was full of caution as it nodded.
Seeing this, Xu Ran also beca alert; even though they hadn’t entered the mountain’s depths yet, Little White’s deanor warranted his caution too.
"Roar---"
Suddenly, a tiger’s roar burst from within, accompanied by a strong scent of blood. Before the pair could react, a giant scarlet figure leapt out, its tail like a python swaying continuously, leaving a fierce bloody trace behind wherever it swept.
Only then did Xu Ran see the owner of the tiger roar clearly.
"Such a formidable Demon Beast deep in the mountains?!!" Xu Ran’s heart was sowhat surprised.
Initially, he thought with Little White’s current strength, if not invincible within the mountains, it could at least dominate a region. But in front of this blood-red giant tiger, Little White’s aura seed much weaker.
When Little White saw this figure, there was a hint of tremor in its eyes.
"How is this blood-red giant tiger’s aura so powerful?!" Little White wondered internally.
Previously by the blood-colored lake, it had seen a Tiger Demon guarding the lake. That Tiger Demon’s aura was almost equal to its own, but the current blood-red giant tiger’s aura was even more terrifying. The re released aura alone made resistance difficult.
If it hadn’t absorbed the [Blood Kunpeng Grass] and gained Kunpeng Bloodline, just this frightening aura would be enough to make its Qi Blood surge.
Simultaneously, both Xu Ran and Little White felt extrely fortunate because this blood-red giant tiger hadn’t discovered them.
