A little bear cub that looked like it had just been born, probably not even a month old yet. It had a confused look on its face. Its every movement was clumsy, and it didn't know what to do.
However, as the Moire Python watched, tears began to fall from its eyes again.
The Moire Python looked at the little fellow like it had found a treasure. As the cub stumbled back and forth, the Moire Python was like the most competent babysitter. It watched the cub intently, not even willing to blink.
Occasionally, when it saw the cub fall, it would quickly help it up. When it saw the cub run to a dangerous place, it would immediately release the domineering aura of a top-notch mystical beast, ensuring that no mystical beasts would come close and cause harm.
This kind of conscientiousness and cautiousness was something that even one's own father and mother would not be able to do!
Yun Yang watched from the side, his heart filled with an indescribable sigh.
He did not know if it was because the heavens were too kind to Yun Yang and did not want him to face the regret of losing his family and comrades again, or if it was because of Yun Yang's desire for perfection that he had created a miracle. Although it was not perfect, it was still somewhat comforting.
Previously, after Yun Yang had kept the cub's physical body, he had forcefully demanded the mystical core and returned the mystical core to the Niello Bear. All of these were Yun Yang's hopes that the cub could finally rest in peace in a complete state. However, when Yun Yang had returned the mystical core, he had also sent a stream of pure spiritual energy of vitality. The original intention of this spiritual energy was to merge the mystical core and the Niello Bear's damaged head into one again, to achieve the greatest level of perfection!
However, the original owner of this spiritual energy was not Yun Yang, but Emmie. Emmie, a creature that would pluck its feathers from a swallow, naturally coveted Blackie's mystical core. Although it dared not take it for itself due to Yun Yang, it would still be good to touch it. Therefore, within the spiritual energy of vitality, there was a hint of Emmie's thoughts. Of course, it was only to touch it to satisfy its craving. It would never dare to absorb the Niello Bear's last remnant!
However, it was this little bit of coincidence that led to a great turning point in the future!
The Niello Bear was a surpassing mystical beast and a king among the mystical beasts. Needless to say, its ability was strong and it had climbed to the peak of its bottleneck for many years. Normally, it would not be able to advance further unless it had gone through many life-and-death experiences. However, in the mystical beast forest, only the Moire Python could arm wrestle with Blackie. Both of these beasts cherished their lives and would never fight to the death. This had caused the two beasts to stagnate for many years. It was also because of this condition that the two beasts submitted to Yun Yang without much trouble.
During the battle that day, the Niello Bear had been injured many times. Many times, he had recovered due to the Qi of vitality. Although he was physically and mentally injured, it had also caused the bottleneck of his ability to waver and crack. When he had tossed the Moire Python, the Niello Bear had disregarded life and death and the price he had to pay. All he wanted was to protect his comrade and escape from danger. The surge of his ability had exceeded his usual limit. Otherwise, how could he have fought with Emerald Cloud Sword Saint, Lv Lingyun, whose ability was above Yun Yang's?
However, the Niello Bear had broken through in the midst of battle after all. The increment of its ability was relatively limited, especially when it had lost the support of Yun Yang's spiritual energy of vitality. In the end, it could not hold on any longer and fell to the ground. It was dismembered and even its mystical core was dug out!
How could there be a turning point in such a manner of death? However, the Niello Bear was still in a state of breakthrough then. Most of its soul was concentrated on the mystical core. It could almost be said that the mystical core had gathered most of the Niello Bear's soul. Although Emmie had failed to save Old Dugu, it had still increased its sense of the soul. Naturally, it had sensed the abnormality of the mystical core at once!
Even so, the Niello Bear was still helpless. Even if the mystical core was fine and its soul was still present, its physical body had been dismembered and its injuries had reached a point where it could not be healed!
The best Yun Yang could do was to collect the dissipated soul of the cub into the mystical core and place this mystical core on the newborn Niello Bear cub!
However, this was equivalent to possession. Once it was let go, it would completely collapse.
Therefore, Yun Yang had used Emmie's unique ability to form a seal. Only when the Niello Bear's ability returned to the state of a seventh level mystical beast could it absorb the mystical core's energy and resume its journey to the pinnacle of the mystical beast king.
According to Emmie, although the Niello Bear had been reborn, it was not necessarily a blessing in disguise. Its current foundation had far exceeded its original state. As long as its cultivation base grew and it returned to its original level, it would merge with the mystical core that had broken through its original bottleneck. On the day of awakening, not only would it be able to recall its past, its ability would also break through to a terrifying level.
The long process of growing to a seventh level mystical beast was the process of the physical body and the soul being polished and merged again and again.
It was precisely because of this completely unexpected yet extremely surprising turn of events that the Moire Python, such a ferocious Beast King, was now guarding the little bear in front of it with infinite gentleness. The only reason was that Lao Hei was still here, and his heart was clear.
This little fellow had the aura of a little bear.
The little bear would return one day!
I'll wait for you!
"It looks like you don't want to leave with me?" Yun Yang sighed and looked at the Moire Python.
The Moire Python hissed twice, a reluctant look in its eyes. However, when it turned its head and saw the silly little bear, it immediately swung its tail and its gaze became determined.
I want to stay here and watch him.
I want to watch him climb to the pinnacle again!
I want to wait for the day he awakens and realizes his past!
If I leave, the current him will definitely be bullied by other mystical beasts. It's also possible for him to grow again.
"What if I bring him along with me? All of you stay by my side! "Yun Yang asked tentatively.
The Moire Python shook its head vigorously.
For a mystical beast like the Niello Bear, it had to be in the dense forest for its initial growth.
Only by facing the wind, frost, snow, rain, and all dangers could one become a king.
Besides, this was the place where the little bear had started. Only here could the little bear return be more compatible, more natural, and stronger!
"Alright." Yun Yang was silent for a moment. "Anyway, don't forget about me. If there comes a day... you can come and find me anytime."
The Moire Python crawled over and wrapped itself around Yun Yang's calf gently, rubbing against it affectionately. Then, it released its body reluctantly. Its pair of cold and cruel eyes looked at the little bear once again, filled with anticipation and gentleness.
Yun Yang sighed and rubbed his hands together. A dozen balls of rich air of vitality floated out one after another and landed in front of the Moire Python.
The Moire Python took a step back, a sincere desire flashing in its eyes. However, it did not eat them immediately like it usually did.
Instead, it cupped the little fellow with its head and let it eat.
Before this, as long as a ball of spiritual vitality was taken out, it would be enough for these two kings to fight it out. Now, the Moire Python could actually be so courteous. This courteous gesture made Yun Yang's eyes almost burn with tears.
"These are yours." Yun Yang said gently, "There are more for him."
Immediately, a dozen balls of spiritual vitality were thrown onto the little bear. The little bear whimpered happily and gobbled down the spiritual Qi. Its furry face was filled with satisfaction.
Only then did the Moire Python feel at ease and began to devour the spiritual Qi that was given to it.
When it arrived, it still left two balls and sent them to the little bear's nose for the little bear to eat.
Yun Yang shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Before he left, he secretly threw another two balls directly into the Moire Python's mouth.
With these spiritual Qi, he believed that the Moire Python and the little bear could break through the shackles of ninth level mystical beasts and even break through the tenth level to become surpassing mystical beasts or even higher existences.
He hoped that there would be a chance for them to meet again by then!
…
Yun Yang stood quietly in front of the dense forest. In front of him was a stretch of official road.
In the dense forest, there was still a hissing sound that was filled with reluctance to part.
However, the hissing sound was getting further and further away, gradually drifting into the depths of the forest.
"I will definitely come back to see all of you. Definitely!"
Yun Yang sighed softly, "Hopefully, by then, you will have gotten to know each other again and be truly intimate."
Suddenly, Yun Yang soared into the air, turning into a gust of wind and a white cloud, heading towards the west leisurely.
Watching the wind and the clouds in the sky, the hissing sound came from the dense forest again.
A huge Moire Python, its head hidden under the dense leaves, coiled around a towering tree. It raised its head to look at the white cloud in the sky through the shade, unwilling to leave for a long time.
…
"This is the best result I can come up with.
Don't threaten me in the future. Life and death are always cruel. Everything should have rules. If the protagonist is too successful, all of you will scold him if one of his brothers does not die. Occasionally, one of them dies, everyone will scold him even more fiercely.
