Translator: 549690339
Winter Solstice, heavy snow
Overnight, the ten thousand mountains gained a fresh face, a world dyed in layers of snow, the once vibrant mountains fell silent. However, even in the hibernating season, there is no lack of thriving places in the mountains.
It is a valley that is starkly different from the continuous mountain ranges. It is as if it is favored by the god of spring, with flowers blooming, birds and eagles cavorting, creating a lively atmosphere, all due to the perennial hot spring in the valley.
Deep within the valley, a gigantic black wolf of magnificent stature, comparable to the wild oxen in the mountains, coiled up. With each breath, it rhythmically inhaled the faint vital energy of the winter sun.
Throughout the valley, hundreds of wolves, big or small, frisked and frolicked, mates, with a minority trying to follow the rhythm of the creature known as Black Mountain, trying to draw the vital essence of the sun.
Yet, how could the breathing techniques inherited from the White Wolf Lord be easily replicated? Black Mountain watched these imitation wolves with a helpless look in its eyes. It wished to teach them, but they were incapable of learning.
The wolves in the mountains use howling to communicate. But how could this pass on the complex and exquisite breathing methods? The White Wolf Lord had used an even more refined Divine Power to directly branded the breathing method into its consciousness, so it was able to comprehend it.
The White Wolf Lord possesses this marvelous method, but it was something Black Mountain could not learn. So, it could only watch to see how many of these intelligent demon wolves could comprehend. Pure imitation. Black
Mountain wasn’t sure how effective it would be.
Suddenly, Black Mountain, who was absorbing the vital energy of the sun, tensed its body and looked up at the sky, only to see a woman with an icy expression, stepping down slowly from the sky, stepping on the frosty fog of winter.
This unconventional behavior instantly put the playful demon wolves in the valley and those surrounding Black Mountain on high alert, adopting an offensive posture.
However, Black Mountain detected a faintly familiar smell on the woman and with a low growl, the packs relented, dare not show any hostility.
“Black Mountain, I am a close attendant of Princess Chongyang, sent under her orders. In recognition for your protection of the Feng Family, she offers you the Shedding Mortality Pill!”
As she spoke, under the cautious gaze of Black Mountain, she set down the
Purple Jade Pillbox with luck. As she did she explained,
“This pill is made by a master alchemist at the request of the princess. It uses the Inner Dan of a Ghost Wolf on the verge of becoming a Demon King, as the main ingredient. Most of the Demon Qi is removed, leaving only the portions that pertain to the bloodline.
If you aspire to become a demon, swallow this pill. Despite the tormenting pain, you can shed your ordinary form and possess the body of the Ghost Wolf. From then on, you can devour the ghosts in the mountains. In a hundred years, you can become a Greater Demon. This is no empty promise, even becoming a Demon King is not out of reach!”
Upon hearing these words, Black Mountain’s watchful demeanor changed, and the intense emotional fluctuations drew the will of Feng Qing’an.
“The people my sister-in-law sent!”
Knowing the identity of the visitor from Black Mountain’s information, Feng Qing’an would like to have a good talk with this close attendant to the princess at this moment.
He wanted to inquire about what kind of person this sister-in-law of his was. She was so generous. Although she was a princess, there were grades among the royal children. Those not favored were not much better than the households of nobles.
This sister-in-law was quite unusual, just giving away a Big Demon Inner Dan. It should be known that Black Mountain had only encountered two big demons in the many days it spent roaming around the Green Python Mountain.
A mountain that nurtures two Greater Demons and a Mountain god of a higher stratum in a mountain range of a thousand miles, is indeed an exaggeration, but not inconceivable.
However, it also shows how rare the existence of each Greater Demon is. Yet a soon-to-be Demon King was killed, and its Inner Dan was used for alchemy, and even given to Black Mountain.
“Take it!”
Feng Qing’an said, at this time there was no need for modesty, he ordered
Black Mountain to place the jade box containing several pills under its paw.
“The Ghost Wolf was on the verge of becoming a Demon King. Even though it was slain during the tribulation, its Inner Dan can create a Demon King. I don’t understand why the princess values you so much, but don’t you forget your duty, you are to perform your duty faithfully and protect the Feng Family!”
“Woof!”
Black Mountain let out a bark, somewhat disdainfully watching the person in front of him. For her to say such a thing was unnecessary. Of course, it would take good care of that mansion.
Upon conveying the items and their purpose, the female attendant did not linger and ascended into the sky.
“Black Mountain, open it and see.”
Looking at the high-ranking woman leaving, Feng Qing’an immediately urged Black Mountain.
Suddenly, a dense Demon Qi with intense oppressive energy soared from the pills, forming a black wolf skull and howling. In the valley, the hundreds of wolves lay on the ground, trembling, and dared not even get up due to the wolf howls.
Even the nearly twenty demon wolves surrounding Black Mountain crawled on the ground, finding it extremely difficult to get up.
However, there is another wolf, as big as an ox, staring unwaveringly at the pillbox, its dripping saliva was visible. However, after Black Mountain growled at it, the Ghost-eye Wolf King didn’t dare to look anymore.
Black Mountain lowered its head and inspected the three pills in the jade box. The pills were pitch black without any lusters, emitting a dense Demon Qi that had condensed into a menacing and ferocious black wolf skull.
Roar!
Although it felt the oppression coming from the bloodline, the black wolf in front of it was clearly formed by the pill Qi. Being intimated by a lifeless wolf would be intolerable for Black Mountain.
And with this roar from Black Mountain, the once imposing and fierce black wolf’s head disintegrated, reformed into a pill Qi, and fused back into the three pills below. Subsequently, Black Mountain, without care, swallowed all three pills.
A thick black mist surged from the body of Black Mountain, instantly enveloping its huge body. Every now and then, the fog turned into screaming ghost’s heads, causing the wolves to shudder.
“Black Mountain!”
Before Feng Qing’an could stop it, it unfolded. He could only closely monitor Black Mountain’s physical changes through the Soul Contract.
Immediately, Feng Qing’an felt a turbulent force hit him via the Soul Contract. Feng Qing’an, who usually enjoyed the feedback from Black Mountain’s advancement, was now thrown onto the bed by the sudden impact, his skin reddening as if washed with hot water.
“Hiss-”
Feng Qing’an gritted his teeth, sucking in a cold breath. He could feel his physique undergoing a transformation under the nourishment of this powerful force.
Although the process was unpleasant, it was nowhere as painful as the previous physical transformation..
