Steady Mortal Path: Starting from Obtaining the Golden Core Inheritance

Lin Changsheng went to the other side of the white ape and used his magic to probe into its body to maintain its life.

Su Xuyan nodded and immediately activated her magic power to perform a secret technique.

Before long, the white ape's belly bulged slightly, and a small, pale red sword, more than two feet long, emerged from its belly.

The moment the pale red sword appeared, it was surprisingly connected to the blood in the white ape's body.

It seems to be absorbing the power of qi and blood to improve its quality.

"A prototype of a magic weapon? A pseudo-magic weapon?"

Lin Changsheng was surprised the moment he saw the pale red sword.

This pale red sword-shaped magical artifact surprisingly has a similar function to the 'Heavenly Poison True Man's' Netherworld Spirit Pearl.

Magical artifacts that can be upgraded in quality can be refined into magical treasures later on.

The difference is that the Netherworld Pearl needs to absorb yin and poisonous energy to improve its quality.

This sword, however, uses the body of a demonic beast as its embryo, and slowly grows.

Su Xuyan focused intently, channeling her magic power to refine the pale red sword.

The white ape on the ground convulsed and twitched, its expression contorted in pain.

Seeing this, Lin Changsheng evenly sprinkled the hemostatic medicine he had prepared beforehand onto the white ape's abdominal wound, while simultaneously channeling his magic power to stabilize the white ape's life force.

But as he was maintaining the white ape's life, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

Although the white ape was rapidly losing its vital energy, its demonic power remained stable, and it did not seem to be poisoned or unconscious.

"Fairy Su, something's wrong! There's something fishy about this white ape!"

Lin Changsheng shouted at Su Xuyan to stop.

Turning around, the white ape, who had been lying unconscious on the ground, stared coldly at Su Xuyan with its brutal and icy eyes.

"Roar!"

The white ape roared, revealing its sharp white fangs!

A deafening, deep roar echoed in everyone's ears!

Lin Changsheng felt a sudden loss of composure.

Then I felt dizzy, had chest tightness, and felt nauseous.

Su Xuyan, who was completely focused on refining the magical artifact, coughed up a mouthful of blood due to the interference from the white ape, and her pretty face instantly turned pale.

"A sonic attack technique!"

After this white ape advanced to a second-tier demonic beast, it underwent a growth mutation!

Bang!

Bang!

Before they could even think, Lin Changsheng and Su Xuyan, who were nearby, were caught by the white ape and sent flying backward.

The pale red magic sword fell to the ground with a 'thud'.

Lin Changsheng retreated rapidly, his white phosphorescent armor glowing with spiritual light. Since he was already at the late stage of the first level of body refinement, he was not seriously injured by the attack.

Su Xuyan spat out blood again, staining her palace dress red.

Although the protective armor isolates most of the malevolent demonic power, some of the impact force is still unavoidable.

He had at least a few broken ribs in his chest.

Lin Changsheng made his judgment.

"Roar!"

A fierce and malevolent aura emanated from the white ape, which pounded its chest with its arms, revealing its ferocious fangs.

His fierce and violent gaze was fixed on Su Xuyan, and he immediately charged forward in anger!

A second-tier demonic beast in its early stages, equivalent to a Foundation Establishment cultivator in its early stages, with a cold and piercing gaze.

Upon seeing this, Nangong Qingtan's pretty face trembled slightly with panic.

She was shocked to discover that the white jade flute, which had always been effective in controlling the white ape, was now completely useless.

"After advancing to the second tier, this white ape was not poisoned. Moreover, it seems to have undergone a mutation during the advancement process, mastering the method of sonic attack and becoming immune to sonic secret techniques."

Lin Changsheng's voice came slowly, reminding him.

He was utterly speechless.

It's unclear how the two women planned this beforehand, or if they were simply very skilled and daring.

It would have been safest to take the sword from the white ape at the peak of its first rank, but instead, they insisted on helping it advance to the second rank.

Apes and other ape-like monsters are inherently quite intelligent and difficult to control.

Perhaps due to being frequently controlled by Nangong Qingtan using sonic techniques, changes occurred during the process of advancing to the second tier, allowing him to master some sonic attack techniques and gain some immunity to the sonic techniques of the Nangong family.

However, Nangong Qingtan reacted extremely quickly. Seeing that the white jade flute was useless, she immediately made a hand seal and lightly tapped the beast-taming ring on the white ape's neck with her slender fingers!

The golden beast-taming ring surged with energy and slowly contracted.

Roar!

Roar!

The white ape's face was ferocious, and its thick arms grabbed the beast-taming ring around its neck and tore at it fiercely.

Soon enough, the beast-taming ring was slightly deformed.

Nangong Qingtan's face paled, and her internal magical power was being depleted extremely quickly.

He immediately abandoned controlling the Beast Taming Ring, and instead patted his storage bag, summoning a strangely shaped longsword magic weapon.

At the same time, he untied the spirit beast pouch from his waist, and a huge, silver demon wolf with glossy fur appeared on the scene.

A near-Tier 3 bloodline demon beast, the Silverback Demon Wolf!

Upon reaching adulthood, there is a very high probability that they will break through to the third-tier demon beast level, equivalent to a human Core Formation stage cultivator.

At this moment, the aura of this silver-backed wolf was similar to that of the white ape.

It has clearly reached the level of a second-tier demonic beast!

Lin Changsheng was amazed.

When I first met Nangong Qingtan at the Nangong family in my early years, she seemed to be accompanied by a wolf cub.

I never expected that when we met again, it would be a second-tier demon beast!

As expected of the wealthy and powerful Nangong family.

The two demonic beasts instantly clashed, creating a bloody and violent scene.

A terrifying demonic power spread out, sending chills down one's spine.

The Silverback Wolf is in full strength and is waiting for the opportune moment.

Although the white ape has only advanced to the second rank and has lost some of its vital energy, it has the advantage of having lived in the wild since childhood and is untamed.

The two second-tier demonic beasts were evenly matched in combat strength, and neither could gain the upper hand for the time being.

The two women, Nangong Qingtan and Su Xuyan, activated their magical artifacts to assist the white ape, continuously inflicting injuries on it.

After a fierce battle, the white ape was breathing heavily, its flesh torn open, and its fur stained red with blood.

The silverback wolf was also in a sorry state, with one of its hind legs bitten by the white ape's fangs.

Suddenly, a glint flashed in the white ape's ferocious eyes. It abruptly grabbed the pale red magic weapon sword that had fallen to the ground, turned around, and ran wildly into the valley.

Nangong Qingtan and Su Xuyan planned to press their advantage, but Lin Changsheng stopped them.

"My two fairies, let's think of a way to escape our current predicament first..."

Lin Changsheng pointed to the valley above with a solemn and bitter expression.

As soon as the words were spoken, the two women froze, and they both used their spiritual senses to search their surroundings.

A few breaths later, however, he was somewhat puzzled.

"Lin Changsheng, this mere injured demon beast that has just entered the second tier is no match for the two of us! You only need to follow the agreement and help maintain the white ape's life when Sister Su is refining the magic weapon later. You don't need to take action at other times."

Nangong Qingtan looked at Lin Changsheng coldly, her tone disdainful.

“Fool, since you two fellow Daoists are determined to die, I, Lin, will not stop you.”

Lin Changsheng said in a deep voice, a departure from his usual calm and easygoing demeanor.

Having said that, he decisively leaped into the deep cave nestled in the mountainside.

Inside the cave, a flash of crimson light appeared on the ground, and the Crimson Centipede emerged.

With a comatose cub resembling both a wolf and a dog between its mouthparts, it reluctantly spat out a purple pill at Lin Changsheng's command.

"What a cunning white ape..."

After looking around the cave and sensing the surroundings, Lin Changsheng sighed inwardly.

Previously, while Su Xuyan was refining the magical artifact, Lin Changsheng controlled the Crimson Centipede to enter the valley to scout the situation.

Inside the cave, they found a young wolf cub with black and white markings.

In addition, buried under the dried straw was a purple pill mixed with dried blood.

The white ape broke through to the second stage but did not consume the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object!

Apes-like monsters are indeed treacherous and cunning...

Upon discovering the elixir, the Crimson Centipede, already at the peak of the first rank, could barely suppress its instinct to swallow it.

However, Lin Changsheng suppressed it with all his might.

"There's something wrong with this pill. We need your help right now. We'll let you take it after we're out of trouble."

Sensing the urgent emotion emanating from the Crimson Centipede, Lin Changsheng calmed it down and instructed it to take the wolf cub and disappear underground.

The white ape abducted the wolf cub from who-knows-where, attracting a pack of demon wolves to attack.

According to his perception, at this moment, hundreds or even thousands of pure white demon wolves were closing in from all directions throughout the valley.

Among these wolf packs, Lin Changsheng sensed the auras of at least five or six second-tier demonic beasts!

Surrounded by such a large number of wolves in the Wanfeng Mountains, even a Foundation Establishment cultivator would likely perish.

Therefore, Lin Changsheng did not flee immediately, but instead hid in the cave where the white ape had previously lived.
