Beast Control: My companion beast is a bird

Lu Chenfeng was somewhat surprised by Yu Xuanteng's words. He quickly called out to Yu Xuanteng, "Yu Xuanteng, there's no need for this. We can always think of another way."

"What other way is there? The most useful thing right now is these two soul lamps in my hand. I know what the Third Prince means. If my strength increases, I can unleash more power from the soul lamps and kill the Soul Clan in front of me."

If I don't improve my strength, we'll all be killed by this guy sooner or later. I might as well take a gamble. For my brothers, I have no regrets. Making this decision is the only bargaining chip I can offer right now.

Hearing his words, Lu Chenfeng fell silent. If he had the means to kill the Soul Clan member in front of him, he wouldn't have to pay the price of his life to send Yu Xuanteng to follow Su Huayuan.

Although Lu Chenfeng hadn't had much contact with Su Huayuan, from the very beginning until now, he had always seen that Su Huayuan was quite cunning.

It's not that he's a bad person; after Lu Chenfeng unintentionally ruined one of his plans, he surprisingly didn't have anyone else do anything to him afterwards.

When he met Su Huayuan at the entrance of the ancient town, the other party immediately made their relationship clear and even offered him an olive branch with a pretty good price, allowing him to choose any position under his command.

This is not just about winning him over, but about binding him to their side.

But he had no desire to get involved in the struggle for the throne between him and the eldest prince; his goal was not in such matters.

Looking at Yu Xuanteng's solemn expression, Su Huayuan slowly nodded, "Alright, remember what you said. Follow me for a hundred years. During these hundred years, I will do my best to provide you with whatever you need, and you must also serve me wholeheartedly."

"Alright, do I need to swear an oath to the Great Dao?"

"No need. A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. I trust you won't make empty promises."

Su Huayuan activated the Tiger Talisman and stood in front of him. Yu Xuanteng turned around, glanced at Lu Chenfeng, and smiled as he extended his hand to him.

Lu Chenfeng was very conflicted. He really didn't want Yu Xuanteng to make this decision. He regarded him as a brother, and now he had to ask his brother to risk his life to save his life. He felt terrible.

"Don't worry too much, this is my own decision."

With a helpless sigh, Lu Chenfeng had no choice but to take out the half pill and hand it to Yu Xuanteng.

It's quite funny, really. The half pill that he and Su Huayuan fought tooth and nail to snatch from Cheng Yi ended up being given to Yu Xuanteng.

Yu Xuanteng took the pill, glanced at it, and then popped it into his mouth.

The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, leaving Yu Xuanteng no time to fully experience it. Its immense medicinal power quickly filled his entire body, enhancing and transforming his physique.

First, there was a breakthrough in his cultivation realm. The source energy in his dantian was constantly being refined and purified. Yu Xuanteng circulated his cultivation techniques and battle manuals again and again.

Having recently broken through to the first minor stage of the Seven Source Profound Core Realm, his cultivation level has been steadily increasing, albeit slowly.

In just over ten breaths, Yu Xuanteng's cultivation level reached the second minor realm. Although the speed of breaking through the realm was very fast, he did not feel any instability in his foundation; on the contrary, it was very stable.

Having realized this, Lu Chenfeng felt relieved. It seemed that this half pill was also used to enhance his strength.

It was also because Yu Xuanteng's cultivation level was lower that the effect of this half pill was able to be greatly enhanced in him.

Soon, his breakthrough to the second minor realm didn't last long before he continued to break through, this time taking a little longer, close to a quarter of an hour.

As Yu Xuanteng broke through to the third minor realm, his control and use of the two soul lamps became even stronger. Before he could even experience the realm of the third minor realm, the medicinal power in his body was still taking effect.

This time, a full quarter of an hour passed before Yu Xuanteng broke through to the fourth minor realm, surpassing Lu Chenfeng in terms of cultivation level.

But it was here that the effects of the half-pill began to slowly dissipate. Before it completely disappeared, Yu Xuanteng's cultivation level remained at the peak of the fourth minor realm of the Seven Source Profound Pill Realm, just one step away from entering the fifth minor realm and becoming equal to Su Huayuan.

Since he had already pushed his cultivation level to this point, Yu Xuanteng simply went all out and directly absorbed and refined a large number of source energy crystals from his storage ring.

A torrent of energy instantly rushed into his meridians, eventually converging on the Xuan Dan within his dantian.

The elixir, already the size of a soybean, continued to expand under the influx of this torrent, gradually growing to the size of a pigeon egg.

Until a certain moment, a popping sound came from Yu Xuanteng's body, and his realm broke through.

The medicinal power of half an ancient pill allowed him to break through three minor realms. If it were a complete pill, wouldn't it have allowed him to directly reach the peak of the Seven Source Profound Pill Realm?

Moreover, this elixir not only improved his cultivation level, but also helped Yu Xuanteng deepen his understanding of his own will; otherwise, his cultivation level would not have been so stable.

Opening his eyes, feeling his whole body brimming with power, Yu Xuanteng couldn't help but let out a low roar, and the Soul-Suppressing Lamp flew out.

The five-meter-tall Soul Clan spirit suddenly felt its entire body being bound by a force. In its eyes, which had no pupils, Lu Chenfeng could see a kind of emotion called panic.

The instant the Soul Clan member was suppressed and imprisoned by the Soul-Suppressing Lamp, Su Huayuan activated the Tiger Talisman and slammed it into the member's body.

In its soul form, the soul power of this soul race member was instantly shattered by this attack.

"Burning Soul."

Yu Xuanteng made his move again, this time with the Seven-Petaled Heavenly Star Soul-Burning Lamp.

He blew a surging flame from the wick, transforming it into a giant fireball that hurtled towards his opponent.

A mournful cry rang in the minds of Su Huayuan and the others, which made all four of them happy. It seemed that Yu Xuanteng's strength after his breakthrough was enough to severely injure this Soul Clan member.

As Yu Xuanteng used two soul lamps to continuously burn the soul race member, the opponent began to switch from offense to defense.

After all, they are just souls. Once injured, it is a soul trauma. If not treated in time, it may cause fatal harm to their souls, or even cause them to perish.

Gradually, the Soul Clan member stopped thinking about killing the humans in front of it and started preparing to retreat.

But Yu Xuanteng wasn't about to let it get away so easily.

He had devoted a hundred years to following Su Huayuan, even sacrificing his life for him. With such a price, how could he not refine this Soul Clan member before him?
