Su Zimo only returned to his cave abode after handing in the mission and receiving quite a bit of contribution points.
The two old men looked at Su Zimo's departing figure with emotional expressions and a myriad of thoughts.
"As expected of someone who has cultivated a Level 3 Spirit Fire. His luck is frighteningly good," The disheveled old man smacked his lips.
"That's right,"
Elder Liu continued, "The few trial disciples from Spirit Peak went to Great Rock Forest as well. I can tell that their cultivation isn't low but they were severely injured in the end. That lad, on the other hand, went around Great Rock Forest with his Level 5 Qi Condensation cultivation. Not only did he not bump into that mysterious burly man, he even picked up so many Pure Gold Ores and returned unscathed. If that's not luck, what is it? "
The disheveled old man said regretfully, "Actually, given that lad's talent in weapon refinement, it's best for him to join True Fire Sect. It's truly a pity that he has to come to our Misty Peak. Our sect isn't good at weapon refinement and elixir refinement. I'll feel bad if that lad's future is held back because of that. "
"Don't think so much. He's only just started learning about weapon refinement and can't even refine inferior-grade spirit weapons. Although our sect isn't strong in weapon refinement, we have the basics. Let's talk about it in the future, "Elder Liu advised.
The disheveled old man nodded and lowered his head in deep thought.
…
It was still early when Su Zimo returned to his cave abode.
According to his plan, he would focus all his energy on immortal cultivation during the day, either to raise his cultivation or to research weapon refinement. He would only start cultivating The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness at night.
Before forming a core, be it Qi Refinement Warriors or Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they were no different from ordinary people and required rest and sleep.
The similarity between Qi Refinement Warriors, Foundation Establishment Cultivators and ordinary people was their lifespan.
The lifespan of Qi Refinement Warriors and Foundation Establishment Cultivators was only slightly longer than ordinary people. Even if they were healthy, they could only live for slightly more than a hundred years.
However, it was different for demonic cultivation.
Most of the demons went into hiding during the day and only came out at night to hunt for food. Furthermore, they were extremely energetic.
When night fell, Su Zimo was actually resting as well. However, after two years of demonic cultivation, he had already developed a habit. Even in his sleep, he maintained the breathing and expiration method of The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness.
In this way, not only did Su Zimo not use up any of his immortal cultivation time, his demonic cultivation was also constantly improving.
However, during this period of time, there was no progress in the Marrow Cleansing chapter, causing him to reach a bottleneck in his demonic cultivation.
For the next few days, Su Zimo forced the two spirit beasts to roar day and night.
After a few days, the two spirit beasts had lost a lot of weight and their throats had become hoarse. However, Su Zimo still had no clue about the Marrow Cleansing Chapter.
He hadn't slept or eaten anything for a few days. Instead, he was shouting like an idiot in the cave abode. If it was a spirit demon, he would have lost half his life.
Linghu and the spirit leopard were dispirited and listless as they sprawled on the ground, drowsy.
"Sigh, I've never seen such a difficult master."
Linghu sighed. "If you want to kill me, do it quickly! What's the meaning of torturing me like this? "
After a few days of torment, Su Zimo was also exhausted.
Su Zimo did not idle either as the two spirit beasts roared. He listened attentively and was tense, afraid that he would miss out on any secrets.
In the end, after a few days, Su Zimo was mentally exhausted and his eyelids were heavy. All he wanted was to fall asleep.
"Forget it, I'll kill these two spirit beasts and eat their meat tomorrow."
Su Zimo collapsed on the stone bed. A thought flashed through his mind as he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Su Zimo was truly too tired.
The moment he closed his eyes, he fell asleep. Subconsciously, he switched to the breathing and expiration methods of the Body Tempering, Tendons Transformation and Bones Strengthening sections. His breathing gradually became heavier.
The two spirit beasts exchanged glances and felt relieved.
"That human has finally f * cking stopped!"
Linghu was so emotional that two streams of tears flowed down his cheeks, almost howling into the skies.
If this were to continue, Su Zimo wouldn't even have to do anything – Linghu was going to just bang his head against the wall and kill himself.
When it saw that Su Zimo had fallen into a deep sleep, the spirit leopard's eyes shone with a ferocious glint even though it looked exhausted.
It had to be said that this was a good opportunity!
Although the two spirit beasts were mentally exhausted, they still had their stamina. If they could snap the human's throat, they might be able to escape!
The spirit leopard looked at Linghu and growled deeply.
Linghu naturally understood the language of the demon race.
Although the spirit leopard's suggestion was good, Linghu did not want to take the risk – who knew if the human was just pretending to be asleep?
Furthermore, Linghu's only thought right now was to sleep.
Shaking its head, Linghu sprawled on the ground and fell asleep.
The spirit leopard had a hesitant expression. After a moment, as though it had made up its mind, a vicious glint flashed in its eyes as it tiptoed over to Su Zimo's side carefully with its killing intent retracted.
Looking at Su Zimo's fair and slender neck, the spirit leopard opened its mouth slowly.
It dared to guarantee that with this bite, even if it was a stone, it would be smashed into pieces!
All of a sudden!
As though it had discovered something, the ferocious glint in its eyes disappeared and was replaced by a look of panic. Slowly, it closed its mouth, as though it was yawning.
Turning around, the spirit leopard's eyes were filled with fear and its limbs were trembling. Sprawled on the ground, it looked at Su Zimo who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed with trepidation, not daring to do anything else.
He was awake!
That was the only word in the spirit leopard's mind.
Just as it was about to chomp down, it suddenly realized that this human's breathing was different from just a moment ago.
That change scared the spirit leopard so much that it broke out in cold sweat.
The spirit leopard did not dare to do anything else and stayed at the side obediently, letting its imagination run wild for a long time before falling asleep.
In reality, Su Zimo had already woken up the moment the spirit leopard's killing intent was triggered.
Su Zimo's spirit perception was way too frightening. Back in Cang Lang Mountain Range, even the spirit monkey's sneak attack could not succeed, let alone this spirit leopard.
Since he had to kill the two spirit beasts tomorrow anyway, Su Zimo could not be bothered to do anything now and continued sleeping.
By midnight, Su Zimo and the two spirit beasts were already deep asleep.
When Linghu was asleep, a strange sound came from his nose.
"Huff … huff … huff …"
After the spirit leopard fell asleep, a sound came from its nose as well but it was different from Linghu's.
"Mmm … mmm … mmm …"
The two sounds were unique and were neither loud nor soft as they intertwined and reverberated through the cave abode.
At that moment, a miraculous change was happening in Su Zimo's body!
The two sounds seemed to contain a mysterious power that could penetrate his flesh and tendons and even seep into his bones, moving his marrow.
Hualala, hualala!
His marrow let out a series of sounds under the vibration of the two sounds. It sounded like flowing water, crisp and pleasant.
Su Zimo, who was in a deep sleep, seemed to have had a dream. He saw the marrow fluid in his bones flowing slowly, cleansing his bones continuously, seeping out streams of fresh blood that fused into his bloodline.
"Mmm?"
Su Zimo jolted awake and opened his eyes. There were only two words in his mind – the sound of tigers and leopards!
