Ball Ball Cultivation

This was the twenty-first time Qiuqiu had been knocked down today, but she still managed to get up and continue fighting. This all started when she completed her advancement and consolidated her cultivation. After wandering through the woods, she encountered the giant bird that had initially greeted them. Qiuqiu was picking dragon fruit. It truly resembled the dragon fruit she used to eat in China, except it was rich in fire energy, and the flesh inside was watermelon red instead of rose red, making it even more delicious. Qiuqiu had just taken a few bites when the giant bird pestered her. It said it was waiting for the largest dragon fruit to ripen, and it came every day to check on it. It was just a little late, but Qiuqiu had gotten there first, and the bird insisted on challenging her to a duel.

Qiuqiu had no choice but to give the remaining dragon fruit to a fire thunderbird named Lei Feng. Hearing this name, Qiuqiu couldn't control himself and sprayed the dragon fruit in his mouth all over Lei Feng's head, starting a two-week long period of abuse. He could break his head but not mess up his hair. Qiuqiu had messed up his beautiful bird crest. If he hadn't seen her give him the remaining half of the dragon fruit, and that she was a servant from the Tiger Tribe, he would have beaten her to the point of being unable to take care of herself! (The demon tribe also keeps some humans for work, as maids or slaves, and as equal contractors. If a demon is contracted as a slave beast, they cannot bring human contractors back to the demon tribe.)

Lei Feng is the great-grandson of the Fire Chief. The female Fire Thunderbird is surnamed Fire, and the male Fire Thunderbird is surnamed Lei. Motherhood is respected, and the position of chief is inherited by the female, while the male has the duty of guarding and protecting the law. When meeting the Fire Chief, the person sitting next to him is his Taoist partner, who is also the chief elder of the Bird Clan. They are loyal in the Feather Clan and have only one partner in their lifetime. If some partners unfortunately die early, they will commit suicide and no longer live alone. They are more loyal than those beasts and reptiles.

The little prince of the Feather Clan can already speak human language and has passed the spiritual awakening period, which is equivalent to the initial stage of foundation building for human cultivators. In addition to scratching and pecking during flight, he also spews fireballs and lightning from time to time, torturing Qiuqiu terribly.

Don't think this is a personal vendetta; it's also part of the above intention, to gain experience in combat with humans. Qiuqiu's swordsmanship and footwork have become increasingly refined, from being unable to survive Lei Feng's attacks for more than three seconds to being able to dodge for a quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour... then surviving one, two, and now ten moves without losing.

The two little tigers were also balding from time to time. Although they had grown slightly in size, their cute round eyes had become sharper and no longer soft. After being here for more than half a year, the two tigers worked together to defeat the long-armed monkey. The long-armed monkey is an earth-attributed spirit beast, famous for its defense. This shows that the two little ones are also making rapid progress.

Mo Yan's life is the most comfortable. After settling down in the bamboo forest, he felt like he was back home. Especially after Qiuqiu made a series of delicacies with bamboo shoots, bamboo rats, bamboo marrow and bamboo flowers as ingredients, he has been eating delicacies or on the way to find delicacies. The one who has been in cahoots with him recently is Elder Lei, whom he has only met once. This model of loving his wife not only eats himself, but also picks up delicious food to bring to his wife.

Mo Yan: Damn it, who did I offend? Not only did they steal my delicious food, but I was also forced to feed them dog food.

However, the army searching for food has a new general, which makes it easier for Qiuqiu to play. Qiuqiu: Could it be that conquering the world of cultivation depends not on force but on food! Confused face.JPG

After more than half a year of being beaten and suppressed by her realm, Qiuqiu has reached the limit of her realm. Lately, she no longer has to endure the daily beatings with a messy hairdo. Oh, that messy hairdo was Lei Feng's revenge for messing up his bird's crest. Every time they fight, Lei Feng starts by messing up Qiuqiu's hairdo. For a full ten months, this petty bird is unmatched.

I had already completed my travels and was ready to return, but I heard that the demon tribe's once-a-century trade fair would be held in a month. The demons from the entire southern part of the Heavenly Demon Forest, especially those near the volcano, would be attending, making it a truly grand event. The Ball Dimension was full of spiritual plants, some of which had already overflowed, so I took this opportunity to exchange some for something useful.

Qiuqiu waited patiently, his cultivation level rising while he was being beaten. He had reached the middle stage of the ninth level of Qi training. This speed was truly enviable! Their demon race, especially those with the blood of divine beasts, cultivated for hundreds of years, while this human only cultivated for a month! How could he not be envious and jealous!

The two tiger cubs also returned to their mother after being beaten. It is worth mentioning that the Purple Sound Lei Geng Bamboo came back with Xu Baier. It turned into a palm-sized purple bamboo and stretched out a section to circle the little white tiger's neck. It was very cute when it swayed. Qiuqiu thought to himself, "I have seen the little boy transformed from the Purple Sound Lei Geng Bamboo. They are childhood sweethearts. They have been playing and raising each other since they were young. This is unique."

After a month of dedicated feeding by Qiuqiu, the two cubs have become plump again. From time to time, they have to find various small monsters to fight. They are really busy and have a lot of fun. Of course, there are spoils of war. Today, it's two pieces of red elm leaves, tomorrow, a handful of purple ginseng roots, and various bird feathers. I really plucked a lot of my own feathers. In the blink of an eye, it was the monster gathering. Qiuqiu followed Mo Yan and the two cubs to explore the valleys and plains. Oh, Qiuqiu was really enlightened.

This market is so free. Those incompletely transformed monkeys look too much like Monkey King, with hairy faces and thunder god mouths, hopping around. I've even seen Second Brother, with a big belly and pig ears, but his nose has been successfully transformed, making him look quite strong, without Second Brother's greasy look. White Snake and Xiaoqing are truly graceful and charming, their gait a unique sight. And if we're talking about beauty, it's the various plant spirits, with their own fresh and gorgeous style. The cool Xiaoxiang Bamboo Fairy is the one with the ethereal air, and the one with a miniature peony in her hair is definitely the noble Peony Fairy. There's so much enchantment and allure to behold.

Qiuqiu saw a small stall selling sunflowers nearby. The girl with a chubby face was manning the stall. When she saw Qiuqiu coming, she quickly greeted her, "These are all sunflower seeds from spiritual plants. They have fire and light properties and are very delicious."

Qiuqiu had already learned that spiritual plants were the fruit of spiritual plants that had awakened their spiritual intelligence, and their efficacy was several times stronger than that of ordinary spiritual plants. Qiuqiu used her spiritual stones to buy some, and then bought a few more spiritual seeds before reluctantly leaving. Could she say she wanted to eat melon seeds and read "Journey to the West"?!

As the crowd moved by, he would exchange or buy any spiritual plants he saw that were not available, and he would buy most of the ones he liked. When he turned to the refining area, he saw all kinds of minerals, snake skins, tiger whiskers, bird feathers, spider silk, and various animal skins and horns. There was a wide variety of them. Qiuqiu exchanged medicinal herbs and spiritual fruits for several kinds of mineral refining materials used to refine his own spiritual sword.

There were also people selling fancy clothes, which were really colorful. I declined to buy them, but the girls from the demon tribe liked them very much. There was an endless stream of people buying them together. Qiuqiu saw a pretty girl who fell in love with a fancy and colorful silk dress. Before she even paid with spirit stones, she just showed her fox tail, plucked a handful of fur and gave it to the shopkeeper, and took the dress away. Oh, the demon people are very straightforward!

When the pretty fox sister snatched the clothes and ran away, the stall owner was still in a daze. Qiuqiu came over, took the fur in his hand, and asked, "How much spirit stones did that dress cost, sister?"

The stall owner, assuming Qiuqiu was in cahoots with them, honestly quoted a price of "twenty spirit stones." Luckily, he didn't call the man back. This foxtail hair was only worth that much, and Qiuqiu only needed it to make a talisman pen.

Qiuqiu quickly paid and left. Damn, her talisman pen has been short of hair for a long time. This is the hair of a transformed fox tail. It's really a big profit, even though it's really worthless here.

Qiuqiu took a look around the three-day trading conference. There was nothing special. He bought a lot of snacks, which were almost stir-fried. It is also worth mentioning that he found a cloud tea seedling at a stall selling various spiritual fruit seedlings. Qiuqiu also exchanged it for a branch of the Space Peach Spirit Tree. This was a small tree grown from a seed he bought when he was visiting the market, and was brought to life by an intelligent robot.

Arriving at a palace marked "Duobao Pavilion," Qiuqiu carefully identified it as the branch she'd visited before. Seeing many demons, too impatient to set up stalls, they sold directly to Taobao Pavilion for fair prices. Qiuqiu also sold her excess spiritual plants to Duobao Pavilion, earning a fortune in spiritual stones, which made her extremely happy. The other side was even busier, with vendors selling the demons' essential needs: Soul-Nourishment Pills, Wisdom-Enhancing Pills, and even Transformation Pills. They were truly good at business!

Three days later, Qiuqiu returned to the base, but Mo Yan had disappeared for two days. Upon learning that he was attending a more advanced trade fair, Qiuqiu and the two little tigers waited patiently.

Five days later, the one who arrived was Mo Yan, with a bruised face and nose. Qiuqiu was too embarrassed to ask, but then he heard Bai Yi run over and hug his thigh and ask, "Uncle Mo, what happened to you? Were you sparring with others and got beaten by another beast?"

Mo Yan nodded: "I'm going to find someone to spar with, it's okay. Let's leave here tomorrow morning." He looked at Qiuqiu. Qiuqiu immediately nodded in agreement and said, "Go home."

Mo Yan returned to his hut to heal his wounds. This time, he traded his last secret realm find for a Phantom Grass, a spiritual item that could help him advance. As soon as he got it, a sea fish demon spotted it. Taking advantage of its higher level, it tried to steal it, not even considering its true form. Cats eat fish, and there's no changing that. Humph, tapirs prefer fish with abundant spiritual energy. It took three days and three nights of fighting, using the illusion of a bewildered mind, to finally catch the fish. However, the fish attacked fiercely during the kill, leaving its face covered in bruises and a disgraceful sight.

Mo Yan wanted to send Qiuqiu home immediately, so he began to retreat to digest the fish. With the addition of the Phantom Grass, he could break through to the late Nascent Soul stage. However, the retreat would take many years, and the little tiger would be unable to look after him.

That day, Qiuqiu went to say goodbye to Lei Feng, her training partner, and gave him some fire-attributed spiritual plants. After that, they fought another game, but Qiuqiu still lost.

The two little tigers were treated much better, receiving many gifts, which they secretly hid in their own little spaces. They also gave back various of their favorite snacks. The next day, Mo Yan and Qiuqiu and the others said goodbye. Qiuqiu presented them with a cookbook, which delighted the Fire Thunderbird leader and his wife so much that they casually gave them a pile of unused fire-attribute ore. This was far superior to the low-quality junk Qiuqiu had found on the volcano. Their generosity was beyond words, and Qiuqiu was filled with gratitude.

This time when he went back, he put the two little tigers into the space, and Mo Yan took Qiuqiu to fly in the sky. After traveling for several years, Mo Yan flew for two days and returned to the cave where Qiuqiu first woke up.

Mo Yan said goodbye to Qiuqiu and the two little tigers in a hurry, and then plucked out a black and white hair and handed it to Qiuqiu, saying: "If you burn it when your life is in danger, I will sense it. As long as it is not a critical moment for upgrading, I will do my best to save you."

He instructed the two little tigers: "Practice well. You have learned almost all the basic knowledge and common sense of the beast tribe. Practice with the inherited memory and explore it carefully."

"This time I will be in seclusion for at least 10 to 20 years, and at most several decades, so you must also practice well."

Finally, he said to the two little white tigers, "Your father is a very powerful demon. You must also become powerful. Practice hard and don't slack off." After saying this, he flew into the mountains and disappeared.
