"Na'er, it's been over a year, you've changed a lot."
After Na'er used spatial elements to bring him to the secluded dormitory garden, Feng Zaixing scrutinized his Junior Sister, whom he hadn't seen in over a year, finding her more and more refreshing.
Bloodline spirit rings were good things; when Na'er unleashed her Silver Dragon Body, her Bloodline intensity was almost on par with his normal state.
"It's nothing, just good luck."
Na'er's purple eyes flickered, and her dark, round eyes darted left and right: "There should be no one here now, right?"
"Of course not." Feng Zaixing looked around, cupped his hands, and said in a clear voice:
"Old Ancestor, Elder Kong, we don't need protection for now. Both of you should rest."
The two Limit Douluo withdrew their mental force.
"Now there shouldn't be anyone," Feng Zaixing said.
"That's good."
Na'er patted her small chest, fiddled with the sapphire storage necklace on her chest, and took out a huge lead box, two feet square, placing it on the ground.
"Senior Brother, a gift for you. Open it and take a look."
Using her silver dragon spear to create a spatial circle, isolating the internal and external spirit light, Na'er smiled sweetly at Feng Zaixing.
"So big, what good stuff is inside?"
Feng Zaixing smiled and released a trace of mental force, but the moment it entered the lead box, it was dispersed by an infinitely sharp aura, ancient and fierce, with a wild feeling similar to a Black Tortoise.
Seeing this, the young man's eyes darkened. Inside the lead box was a Spirit Bone of unprecedented quality, surpassing all the 100,000-year Spirit Bones he had ever seen. "This girl couldn't have dug up the grave of some Vicious Beast in Star Dou, could she?" Feng Zaixing thought to himself.
At this moment, Na'er urged him again. Not wanting to make her wait, Feng Zaixing activated his One-Word Battle Armor for defense and began to gently open the huge lead box.
"Boom—"
In an instant, an unparalleled sharp halo burst from the lead box, and the phantom of a giant, lion-like beast condensed in mid-air.
Upon closer inspection of the inside of the lead box, a miniature human left leg bone was suspended there, from the toe bones to the calf bones, to the knee, and then to the thigh bone, every detail visible, every inch shining with a luster brighter than pure gold. It was clearly a genuine treasure of the Blood River, a left leg Spirit Bone.
That luster wasn't just spirit power; it also contained traces of incredibly pure Qi and Blood, the greatest tonic for those who Cultivate Qi and Blood.
Even more terrifying, the giant beast phantom in mid-air seemed to still possess consciousness, making Feng Zaixing, even in his Battle Armor, feel a sense of threat.
"Its racial aura is much stronger than the Deep Sea Demon Whale, and its appearance—"
Feng Zaixing made a judgment based on the aura and quickly guessed a possibility.
The legendary ancestor of all canine Spirit Masters, and possibly the ancestor of feline Spirit Beasts, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff!
"Na'er, is this a Spirit Bone from the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff clan?" Feng Zaixing took a deep breath and asked.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff had only appeared once in the Myriad Beast Platform, but that single appearance was terrifying enough, once suppressing the nine-ring Tang Wulin, who had concealed his cultivation. That individual's age was only 10,000 years.
This clan was born with a Domain aura, the "Overlord Domain." Their strength talent far surpassed that of the Darkgold Terrorclaw Bear clan. Not only did they ignore the Golden Dragon King Bloodline suppression, but they nearly shattered Tang Wulin's vital energy in three moves.
"Yes, this was left by a 200,000-year-old Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff. Senior Brother's eyesight is truly good."
Na'er smiled sweetly, squatting among the purple and red flowers, cupping her small face in her hands, utterly adorable.
"Do you like it? I got it from Di Tian."
Feng Zaixing looked at the lead box, didn't absorb it, re-sealed it, and then squatted down to chat and laugh with Na'er.
"I like it, I like it very much; but I like your return even more. If it's convenient, tell me about your experiences."
"Also, this Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff clan, I heard they had extraordinary talent, but became extinct due to their warlike nature."
"(?U?) Okay, Na'er loves telling stories the most. During this time, Na'er has learned so many, many things—"
Na'er took the Hundred Drunken Fruit Wine Feng Zaixing offered, took a small sip, and then began to briefly recount her experiences.
From attacking Tang Wulin and absorbing the Golden Dragon King's essence to returning to Star Dou for secluded Cultivation and emerging, she told the story vividly, and then spoke of the history of the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff clan.
Feng Zaixing listened quietly, playing the role of an audience, his thoughts fluctuating, finally realizing and secretly thinking, 'As expected.'
After two consecutive rounds of attacks, God King Tang had only one chance left to act. He was currently in a deep slumber. It was only a pity that the Evil Soul Masters killed by God King Tang were not fully utilized.
The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff clan were not natives of the Douluo Continent; they were extraterrestrial species that came through a spatial rift and assimilated into Spirit Beasts under the Douluo Star's influence.
It was precisely then that the Spirit Beast clan first rose, and the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff became one of the earliest Spirit Beasts. Their powerful racial talent allowed them to battle true Dragons.
The Titan Giant Ape and Diamond Baboon, known for their great strength, were far from their opponents. Their innate Overlord Domain made them fearless of any foe, fighting until death.
The Clan Chief of the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff clan at that time was the one who left behind this Spirit Bone. No Spirit Beast other than Di Tian could suppress him.
However, precisely because of their powerful racial talent and warlike nature, all Spirit Beasts could not allow them to continue to develop. With an order from Di Tian, the encirclement and suppression of the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff began.
The Beast God was, after all, the Beast God. From the Star Dou Great Forest to the Douluo Continent, there was no place for the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff to hide.
Ultimately, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff became extinct, and their Clan Chief fell at the hands of Di Tian. A three-headed Red Demon repeatedly performed meritorious deeds in battle and was vigorously Cultivated by Di Tian, leading the canine Spirit Beasts. This was the Red King.
In Feng Zaixing's mental force sea, the Heavenly Sacred Winged God Tiger stood on the mental force island he had created, looking into the distance and sighing:
"This King heard that our clan once encircled and suppressed these madmen. They were even more hateful than our clan."
The little angel, Xu Yan Zhen, stood on the tiger's head, nodding her small head in agreement.
"Good heavens, even the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger thinks they're extreme."
Feng Zaixing was speechless. The Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger wasn't exterminated, but the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff was. It showed how much Di Tian feared this honey badger. "The Spirit Bone is a treasure, but unfortunately, I can't achieve Fusion with it, so I'll just keep it." He gently shook his head; Feng Zaixing didn't seek death.
Judging by its combat power in life, roughly speaking, it was equivalent to fusing half of Di Tian's Spirit Bone. It would be a miracle not to be shaken to death by the backlash.
Di Tian was willing to let Na'er take its Spirit Bone, showing he understood the principle of returning a favor.
Na'er lay among the flowers and grass, her three thousand silver strands cascading like a silver river, revealing a flawless, beautiful face, smiling faintly.
"With Senior Brother's talent, you'll be able to achieve Fusion with it soon."
"Na'er's diligent Cultivation still can't compare to Senior Brother's. You must have worked incredibly hard during this time."
Her perception was strong. Beneath Feng Zaixing's restrained exterior was extremely pure sacred spirit power and vast Qi and Blood. His strength was above hers, and also above that Dragon's.
This was truly good; it brought peace of mind.
"With so much pressure on my shoulders, how dare I be even slightly negligent?"
He replied softly, then looked at Na'er, smiling gently: "Next year, I'm going to Shrek City. Later, we'll go to the Spirit Pagoda together to challenge the towers and choose new spirit souls for you, okay?"
"Mm, but by then, I won't go easy on Senior Brother."
Na'er seemed to have truly grown up. Her clear eyes, reflecting the hidden stars and moon, now held a hint of sharpness and determination. She looked around and said, word by word:
"Senior Brother, you said that parting is for a better reunion, but I don't like parting, not one bit!"
"Last time we parted, I made up my mind not to be so powerless again. I don't want to be the Junior Sister who can only hide behind you. Our future, we will control it ourselves."
Feng Zaixing gazed at her for a long moment, then nodded gently, looking at the bright sky where clouds gathered and dispersed, and said softly:
"Of course, in Cultivation, one's mind must always be clear and one's thoughts unobstructed, otherwise, wouldn't it all be for naught?"
At this point, his voice paused, then became slow and powerful: "Planning and striving to be a hegemon, this life shall rule the world."
He stood up, shaking off his fatigue. The blue-clothed young man reached out to the silver-haired young woman: "Let's go, let's see our old friends, then go Cultivate and create our future."
"Mm!" Na'er responded crisply, grasping his sturdy, powerful hand to stand up, and walked out of the flower thicket with nimble steps.
Scattered light specks shone on their faces, casting long shadows, as if seeing them off, or perhaps a silent blessing.
Youthful spirit thrives, let's just enjoy the spring breeze.
