Li Xiu dismounted from the Pink Nightmare, observing the bride-to-be floating in the air, then glanced at his finger, realizing the Demon Spirit Ring of the bride-to-be was gone.
With a thought, the bride-to-be transford back into a ring and returned to his finger.
Li Xiu let out a slight sigh of relief. It seed the bride-to-be was still under his control, but strangely, she could independently turn into a demon spirit.
"A hungry demon spirit, this is truly the first one. But, these demon spirits have very stable energy. As long as they’re not summoned for battle, their energy doesn’t deplete. There shouldn’t be a concept of hunger. Why is the bride-to-be so peculiar, actually feeling hunger?"
Li Xiu summoned the bride-to-be again and asked, "Are you hungry, right?"
"Hungry..." the bride-to-be replied faintly.
"What do you want to eat?" Li Xiu asked further.
"Ruby," the bride-to-be answered.
Li Xiu retrieved a ruby from his pocket and offered it to the bride-to-be, who politely said, "Thank you, husband..."
Without any visible action, the ruby in Li Xiu’s hand emitted strands of red light, absorbing into the bride-to-be’s body.
The ruby in Li Xiu’s hand lost its color and shattered into powder with a crunch.
"Husband, I’m still hungry," the bride-to-be said again.
The terms accompanying that eerie tone made Li Xiu feel uncomfortable, so he said, "Um, can we change how you call ?"
"Please say, husband." Though the bride-to-be seed a bit eerie, she appeared to have a good temperant.
"For example, you could call master," Li Xiu said with a smile.
Upon Li Xiu’s suggestion, the bride-to-be suddenly raised her head, her hair slightly parted to reveal a crimson eye as if dripping blood, with blood-like star lines in her pupils. She stared intently at Li Xiu, stating word by word, "Is husband intending to divorce and reduce to a servant?"
"No, no, no, that’s not what I ant. The term ’master’ implies the most intimate person, not what you think. If you don’t like it, forget it," Li Xiu hastily explained. The bride-to-be was indeed too frightening, especially with her ghostly appearance and ability to independently transform into a demon spirit. Li Xiu feared she might silently appear beside his bed and strangle him in his sleep.
"I see, I misunderstood husband," the bride-to-be said, lowering her head again, her tone much calr, restoring its previous eerie and distant quality.
"Since you don’t like that term, forget it. I don’t have any more rubies now. I’ll get so for you when we return," Li Xiu said, having only one ruby with him.
"I’ll obey whatever husband commands," the bride-to-be said, transforming herself back into ring form and returning to Li Xiu’s finger.
"Truly cos and goes at will; this demon spirit is indeed devilish," Li Xiu chuckled to himself bitterly.
Fortunately, the bride-to-be was relatively obedient. Li Xiu resud his journey and soon arrived at the Golden Gate.
This deep mountain forest was scarcely populated. The hut where Old Dao lived had long been destroyed, with not a soul around.
He took out the prepared Golden Green Tourmaline and inlaid it onto the gate, entering the Trial Ground.
He didn’t have the money to buy so many Trial Badges, so he used gems to open the door.
The dice trial was not difficult for Li Xiu. He easily completed the B-level trial and chose the Attribute Reward.
The trials here had an advantage for him: the completion speed was fast, unlike the ti-wasting Dark Maze.
As long as he guessed correctly, he could complete the trial, swiftly progressing through round after round to obtain Attribute Rewards.
Though the attribute increase wasn’t substantial, the speed made it gratifying as long as there were enough gems.
After over a dozen tries, he finally obtained an entry ticket, and his Primordial Embryo Quality beca 2.2.
At the stone table, since he had previously acquired the Golden Key, nothing was on it this ti.
Following the Longevity Lamp into the temple, the human corpses within had long decomposed. With immunity, Li Xiu had no concerns. After leaving the side hall, he discovered the courtyard lacked the two black Gate Guardian Beasts.
Without the Guardian Beasts, there was nothing to kill in the temple, so Li Xiu opened the temple doors, descending the mountain to hunt the Frenzied Beasts.
With the A-level Black Death Demon King leading the charge, the Frenzied Beast hordes appeared as re experience babies and cash machines to Li Xiu. He only needed to follow and collect items.
Acquiring quality Demon Cores, he fed them directly to the Jedi Knight, aiming to elevate its level to S-grade.
Li Xiu was already planning that once the Jedi Knight achieved S-grade, if Xin Guan’s Lightspeed No. 2 was completed, he would compete for the Super Spirit Gemstone in Red Sand City to see if he could imbue the Jedi Knight with super spirit.
Along the way, he fought several Frenzied Beast hordes without encountering overly strong ones; the toughest was rely A-grade with rainbow colors.
Li Xiu ventured deeper into the forest. The area was covered with rolling woodland, a common person would likely get lost, but Li Xiu had no such worry, continually seeking places where Frenzied Beast hordes congregated.
