Chapter 1225 641: Black Dog (Part 2)
"I hate birds! Hmph! They are irritable. Elder Zhou's little birds even openly slandered me once!" Even though he sincerely gave them medicinal pills, he felt extremely aggrieved about how those birds bullied him.
However, he couldn't give up his dream of cultivating the Ultimate Battle Beast. Thus, he turned his gaze towards Archway Peak.
"That big lizard looks quite tame. It's also fat, which means it might have a good appetite... maybe I have an opportunity there." Alive, he hastily rushed to Archway Peak. However, it wasn't long before he returned, frowning. He even had some tears in his clothing.
When the lizard discarded some medicinal pills, it completely ignored him. After anxiety, he threw a few more, then the lizard swiped at him with its claw.
He was forced to flee in a terrifying manner without getting injured, but his clothes were destroyed, leaving him looking very shabby.
The final Spiritual Beast Guardian was the ghost of Ghost Mountain. Yan Xiaobao hesitated until the second night. Finally, he angrily stomped his foot and rushed to Ghost Gorge Peak. He found the Mountain Ghost had the best temper. It ignored Yan Xiaobao, as if he didn't exist at all, and paid no attention to the pills.
After waiting half the night without any response, he left. The second night, he returned, even the third night, nearly in tears before he finally gave up.
"All four Spiritual Beast Guardians completely look down on me!" Sitting in the backroom of the ceremonial procession, all of the North Shore was cunning. The only exception was those whom Yan Xiaobao couldn't provoke, such as those who stored their Battle Beasts in their Beast Breeding Bag. All other valuable beasts had already contributed. Even most of the elders' beasts were taken by the black dog.
However, when Yan Xiaobao encountered the Spiritual Beast Guardians, he only met with failure, leaving him frowning sadly. Especially considering the Beastbirth Flower was about to bloom.
"I hope my Battle Beast can be strong like never before, but the four Spiritual Beast Guardians refuse to cooperate. I suppose I need a Battle Beast stronger than them. Content from the sect is more powerful... wait a minute." While talking to himself about the topic, he suddenly shivered while looking towards the Ancient Beast herd, his eyes shining.
"The only thing stronger than the Spiritual Beast Guardians... is the sect's Holy Beast Guardian!
The Heavenhorn ink dragon... If I can get that dragon to contribute, that would surely be enough!" He excitedly gasped and began to gather his thoughts.
"Now that I think about it, I have a good relationship with the Holy Beast Guardian. Ever since I came here, I have been giving it pills... Although I have never seen the old Heavenly Ink Dragon, it has never stopped me from concocting medicine nearby. This means... it actually approves of me!" The more he thought about it, the more it made sense. Even more excitedly, he organized his handbag, took a deep breath, and headed in the direction of Ancient Beast Canyon while waving his gloves.
He enthusiastically sprinted at high speed, preparing to embark on the adventure of cultivating his Ultimate Battle Beast dream. Soon, he stood at the edge of the waterfall, pouring into Ancient Beast Canyon. Below, it was elusive darkness, swirling with black mist everywhere. As he stood on the edge, the cold pricked his arms and legs, seemingly from the deep abyss itself.
He trembled a bit, fearing he might slip and fall, he retreated a few steps, then gritted his teeth, throwing his pills inside.
"Advanced Heaven, it's me, Yan Xiaobao of the junior generation. Remember the account? I've been giving you pills for years. Well, uh, why don't you try this new taste I came up with?" After waiting for a while without getting a response, he started to doubt whether the Heavenly Ink Dragon might have a different taste. Finally, he tossed in different Third-level Spiritual Medicine.
It wasn't long before he threw seven or eight pills. Beginning to feel somewhat frustrated, he finally threw a heap of secret pills. But, there was no reaction.
"Perhaps heaven has already doomed Yan Xiaobao to fail in enhancing the Ultimate Battle Beast..." Feeling dejected, just as he was about to turn away from the abyss, suddenly, the mist inside stirred, and a deep ancient voice spoke from within.
"This is not worth trying, child... I appreciate your kindness, but my fate was sealed three thousand years ago... However, if you can find a way to make my life essence surge once more, even if just for a moment, I can do anything you want me to!"
Yan Xiaobao's eyes widened. Breathing heavily, he turned and said, "Really?" In the whirlpool of the cleft, two eyes appeared, flickering with different colors. Most frequently appearing was magenta.
Only those eyes were as big as Yan Xiaobao's entire body, making him breathless at the thought of how enormous the whole Sky Eagle Ink Dragon was. As he observed closely, he nearly couldn't find the horn.
After a careful look at the horn plate, he was convinced the Heaven's Ink Dragon was speaking, and he began to get excited. After some thought, he gritted his teeth.
"Old man, don't be afraid. I will try very hard to do this!" Just like that, Yan Xiaobao turned, his eyes shining with focus and hope. If he could simply have the Heavenly Ink Dragon contribute once, then his hope of enhancing the Ultimate Battle Beast would certainly be fulfilled.
"Life essence is exhausted, wishing to surge. This will require some serious stimulation. When it comes to stimulation... what can compare to the effect of my aphrodisiac!?" Bloodshot eyes, he flew towards Daoseed Mountain from the Beast Music Academy. Considering his status, and the vast merits he had accumulated, he effortlessly purchased the medicinal plants he needed.
When he finished, he had spent more than half of his merits. He bought so many of the ingredients that even one bag wasn't enough to pack. It took seven bags, all stuffed to the edges. The disciple responsible for selling medicinal plants was stunned. In all the years he had been in charge, he had never seen someone spend merits in such a shocking manner.
Of course, the disciple recognized him. After he left, the disciple took a deep breath, pondering how godlike Yan Xiaobao was.
Having purchased such a vast quantity of medicinal plants, he went back to the vicinity of Ancient Beast Canyon to begin concocting medicine. Soon, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was in a frenzied state.
"I must make a Super Erosion Pill!" He gritted his teeth. Intending to significantly increase the efficacy, he adjusted the pill formula, enhancing potency by hundreds or even thousands of times.
Seven days flew by. Yan Xiaobao took no rest whatsoever, and soon, his hair was completely disheveled. He became thoroughly immersed in his concocting. Occasionally, the black dog would bring battle beasts, causing Yan Xiaobao to impatiently give it a jade sliding plate, temporarily opening the spell.
The dog was very smart, returning the battle beast to the ceremonial procession with the jade, earnestly executing Yan Xiaobao's assigned task. Clearly concerned that if it didn't handle it properly, there would be no future chances to come back. Of course, without Yan Xiaobao supervising there, the dog had little control over how many times it contributed...
Over time, the disciples of the North Shore gradually went mad. Every missing war beast returned, displaying a strange expression, somehow proud, as if it were the ruler of the world. It went manic, murderous, intoxicated, seemingly continuously pondering the past. Furthermore, no matter how their masters tried to pry information out of them, there was no avail.
More and more battle beasts exhibited such behavior. Some beasts strictly adhered to their master's discipline in the past and never dreamed of acting out. But after disappearing and experiencing the illusory life as a world ruler, they became uncontrollable... the North Shore fell into chaos.
"What is happening!?!?"
"Suspicious things are happening. We need to find out what's going on!!"
Eventually, even the battle beasts belonging to the elders began to take similar actions. Before long, all disciples on the North Shore were investigating the situation.
Three days later, Yan Xiaobao was completely immersed in his frenzy. He rushed fearlessly to the canyon's edge, requesting a drop of blood from the Heavenly Ink Dragon.
On any other occasion, Yan Xiaobao wouldn't do anything so dangerous, but given the predicament he was in, he completely suppressed any impulse to ponder potential consequences.
After a long silence, impatiently, Yan Xiaobao stated that he had no time to waste. After a while, a drop of golden blood flew out, and Yan Xiaobao quickly stuffed it into a bottle. Then, he hurried back to his cave to continue his concoction work.
