Chapter 319: Dreaming of Returning to the Imperial Beast Sect
Chapter 317 – Dreaming of Returning to the Imperial Beast Sect
“Eat slowly, eat slowly ……”
In a voice full of surprise that kept repeating itself, Li Fan swallowed all the broken eggshells into his stomach.
Searing energy surged out from his belly and swam around his entire body without stopping.
This power was extremely refined, and Li Fan, who was still stumbling a bit when he originally walked, was able to hop around a few moments later.
“Wow…… worthy of being descended from a divine bird, it’s really powerful. Just a short time after birth and he can walk on his own! Then wouldn’t it be a short while before I’ll be able to ride him and fly?”
Ignoring the rambling voices in his ears, Li Fan walked to the water’s edge somewhat depressed and looked at his mirror image.
“So damn ugly!”
A strange bird with no hair growing out and covered in red bare skin appeared in Li Fan’s field of vision.
“Senior Zhang, I actually miss you a little.”
“If I hang out with you, I’m at least a true disciple of the Purple Sky Sect. A new map has been opened, and people can’t even make it, but they have been transformed into such a silly bird.”
Perhaps because of the influence of the possessed strange bird, Li Fan’s thoughts at this time were somewhat active and jumpy, very different from the calm state of unusual moments.
“Good bird quickly grow up ……” the chattering voice resounded again, making Li Fan even more annoyed.
However, a red plant that looked like a worm and grass reached out in front of Li Fan, but instantly made all his unhappiness leave behind.
He snatched it in one gulp and swallowed it in three or two swallows.
An unspeakable sense of fulfillment immediately surged to his heart, just like the feeling of euphoria when one occasionally obtains a heavenly wonder during the Qi Refining Stage, or when a hundred methods are used to form a dan during the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Almost in an instant, it made Li Fan lose the ability to think.
Only a floating blank consciousness remained, wandering in the sea of joy.
After a long time, the ascension-like pleasure slowly subsided.
Li Fan gradually regained his ability to think.
But the shock from that red wormwood from before still lingered in his mind, making it hard for him to forget.
While reminiscing, greed couldn’t help but well up.
“What the fuck is this?”
Li Fan was horrified in his heart, yet he couldn’t control his eyes towards the owner of that voice.
“Don’t look at me like that, this [Thorny Insect Grass] is a plant that I saved up only after a long time. If you eat it, you won’t have it for a short period of time!”
A young boy who was not very old, only around twelve or thirteen years old, was rubbing the back of his head, apologizing with a face full of embarrassment.
“No more?” A sense of disappointment and anger grew steeply.
In a fit of anger, Li Fan brushed up and climbed on top of the little boy’s head with a fierce kick.
At once, the little boy’s originally neat and tidy hair became as messy as a bird’s nest.
The boy was not angry, but just cocked his head and giggled.
Li Fan, on the other hand, became even angrier and simply took up residence on top of his head as a nest.
“Hee hee, little guy, don’t be angry. Although the Thorny Wormwood is gone, within our Imperial Beast Sect’s mountain gate, there are countless secret spirit mountains, so there are too many good things. Definitely won’t starve you! Go, I’ll take you to find food.” When the little boy said that, he threw out a feather.
The feather blossomed with white light, and a moment later, a red-topped crane with an elegant figure and extraordinary demeanor appeared in front of him.
The little boy skillfully straddled the red-topped crane, clasped his hands around the crane’s neck, and shouted, “Little Red, let’s go!”
The crane let out a loud and clear chirp, then flapped its wings and flew high into the sky.
Above the sky, the wind howled.
The little boy didn’t forget about Li Fan above his head and protected him tightly with his hands to prevent him from being blown away.
From time to time, a trace of familiar warm energy was ferried over to help ward off the cold air high in the sky.
With the help of this calming energy, Li Fan’s agitated mood slowly calmed down.
He seized this rare opportunity to analyze what he encountered in the Meteoric Immortal Realm this time.
“The object of possession this time is a bit special.”
“It’s a strange bird that struggled out of its eggshell.” “Hmmm ……”
“It’s a bit of a novelty.”
“Unlike possessed cultivators who are able to maintain their own thoughts, after possessing a foreign beast, the mind and character will also be affected by the foreign beast, and it will be almost impossible to control itself, and it will act according to its instincts.”
“It’s not the negative emotions, but the character itself that makes it so. So for the first time, the previously unfavorable Xuan Huang Refining Heart Incantation was also ineffective.”
“Unless one reveals one’s own body and unleashes the Blue Flame spell. Otherwise, it’s impossible to get rid of it with the current means.”
“This seems to be the Imperial Beast Sect from the ancient times.”
“This little boy under his feet should be a member of the Imperial Beast Sect. Earlier, when I was in the egg shell, the gentle energy that sustained my life continuation and helped me break out of the shell was released by him.”
“Is the Imperial Beast Sect’s beast control means? Helping foreign beasts grow while ……”
“It also strengthens the bond between both parties.” After sensing it slightly, Li Fan secretly pondered.
Don’t look at the fact that Li Fan would tease the little boy, driven by his furious nature.
But in reality, the little boy was a parent-like existence to the possessed strange bird.
As a personal experience, Li Fan knew exactly where the strange bird’s anger came from.
In addition to its own unresolved appetite, it was more a result of the dependence on humans that surfaced in its heart from time to time, and the instinctive will inherited from its bloodline.
Instinct told the strange bird that it shouldn’t be so close to humans.
However, it was unable to control the emotions that welled up in its heart.
That’s why it acted so irritable.
“Imperial Beast Sect, there really are some doors.”
“I wonder if there are any other effects.”
Li Fan thought as he lay on top of the little boy’s head and looked down towards the bottom.
The strange bird’s eyesight far exceeded that of humans, and even above the clouds, everything on the ground could be seen clearly.
The rolling hills were laddered with many, many spirit fields.
Some cultivators, commanding ox-bodied and horse-faced strange beasts, plowed in the fields.
Not far from the top of the mountain, stars towering many buildings.
Farther away, there seemed to be a high tower.
A vague feeling of familiarity and awe came from the tower.
“Not far ahead, is the Fire Attribute Spirit Field.”
“People say that you are descended from a divine bird, and your nature is fire. What with the Red Essence Leaf and the Xuan Fire Fruit, it’s only right to eat more, it’s definitely good for your body.”
The little boy said playfully.
“It just so happens that the senior brothers have been busy lately for some reason, I’ll bring you here to sneak in some, it shouldn’t be a problem.”
After flying for a long time, the first-born Li Fan was a little sleepy again.
“If you say so it is …….”
Using his already slightly hardened claws, he gently tickled the little boy’s hair, signaling him to pass some more energy over.
Li Fan snorted and was about to fall asleep again.
Just then, a tiger’s roar resounded through the sky, waking Li Fan up.
Looking up, he saw a blue figure, standing on a tiger-bodied, human-faced monster, coming from the distance.
It whistled and flew over Li Fan’s head, and in an instant, it was already far away, heading to who knows where.
The air waves and hurricane winds that were brought up made the red-topped crane that the boy was riding on, a little unable to stabilize his body.
However, the boy didn’t complain a bit, but excitedly shouted, “Look, it’s Senior Brother Lu Ya! The tiger-bodied, human-faced spirit beast underneath him is said to be a descendant of the Water God Beast, and is particularly powerful! Born less than ten years ago, it’s already comparable to a Jindan stage cultivator!”
