The sun rose, while the moon started to set. The clouds in the sky above the peak gathered and dispersed. After an unknown amount of time, the giant white cocoon under the tree still did not move. It was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves.

The spiritual energy here was the densest. It could almost form a substance and surround the white cocoon. Especially when night fell, it was like the galaxy was slowly flowing around it. The scene was extremely beautiful.

During this period, Shen Tianyi had come to visit, but when he noticed the enchantment set up by Gu Xi, he decided not to disturb him.

Just as the morning sun rose, a crack finally appeared on the cocoon, and a heavy pressure gushed out from it. In an instant, multicolored light shot out from the mountain peak. It was as if two suns had appeared in the sky.

Crack–

The cracks on the cocoon grew deeper. Finally, the cocoon broke open and Gu Xi stepped out of the cocoon. The sunlight bathed his body as if congratulating him on his new life, giving him a layer of golden light. He looked like a divine being, filled with supreme dignity and majesty.

The moment he opened his eyes, he could see both the rising sun and the setting moon. The peak was steep, and he stood against the wind, surrounded by clouds and mist. He looked like a celestial being, and the shadow of the rising sun was branded into it. At this moment, he was the God that was born from within, and with his splendor, the world lost its color.

Gu Xi felt extremely good. At the very least, his meditation had allowed him to ascend another small step in his cultivation level. Looking around him, he felt as if something was missing.

The smile on his face froze. “Where’s my egg?!”

The place where he left his Familiar Beast egg earlier was now empty. Where did the egg go?!

Gu Xi hurriedly searched for it, but there was nothing around him. Could it be that the egg had grown wings and flew away by itself? Or had it been blown away by the wind and rolled down the cliff?

Looking down at the bottomless abyss, Gu Xi was filled with sorrow. That was a demonic beast with the bloodline of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox. It was all his fault for being careless. Just as he was feeling frustrated, a white shadow flashed past.

“What is it!?”

Gu Xi suddenly turned his head back. There was nothing behind him except for the rustling of leaves, as if something had just passed by.

In the next second, spiritual energy burst out from his fingertip like an arrow leaving the bow, and it shot toward a nearby bush.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”

A little creature’s limbs were flailing in the air. Unfortunately, it was tied up by the rope formed by spiritual energy, and it could not break free at all. It kept squeaking, as if it was accusing Gu Xi of what he had done.

“This is...”

Gu Xi was pleasantly surprised. The creature in front of him was white all over except for a red mark in the middle of its forehead, which looked like a blooming lotus. It had a fluffy tail, and he had the urge to squeeze it.

“Could this be the little fox that was hatched?” Gu Xi touched his chin.

However, the little fox in front of him did not have any spiritual energy fluctuation. It was a little too weak. Could it be that the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox’s bloodline had not been successfully activated?

Just as he was thinking, the little fox bit down and actually broke the spiritual energy rope. The golden spiritual energy dissipated in the air and could no longer restrain it.

It turned around and ran towards Gu Xi. Its dark eyes were wet, full of excitement and intimacy. It immediately jumped onto Gu Xi and curled around his shoulder.

Its big tail continued to sweep around and then wrapped around his neck. The little fellow was petite and furry. ????????????????????????????. ᴄ????m

“Squeak squeak–” The little fox gestured with its hands and feet. It still could not speak human language, but it had already signed a contract with Gu Xi. Through his senses, Gu Xi could understand what it was trying to say.

Back when Gu Xi was meditating and cultivating, the Familiar Beast egg had also absorbed the spiritual energy from Mount Sanqing after the impurities had been removed and purified. The current Mount Sanqing could be said to be a treasure land of feng shui, and spiritual energy was abundant.

Therefore, the little fox hatched faster and rushed out.

“Since you have the bloodline of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, I’ll call you Little Nine from now on.”

It was probably because Little Nine had just broken out of its shell. It did not seem to have any connection with the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox. It looked like an ordinary white fox. Gu Xi guessed that as its strength increased, the number of tails would increase as well.

It seemed that Little Nine still had a long way to go.

“Since the impurities in the Familiar Beast eggs can be extracted and removed, does that mean that I can do the same for other demonic beasts?”

This thought popped up in Gu Xi’s mind.

In the past, there were also divine beasts that appeared on this continent. However, with the scarcity of spiritual energy and the passage of time, as well as various factors, the divine beasts gradually disappeared. In the end, they only appeared in the records of the historical books.

However, they left behind many descendants, but they were not pure. The bloodline power within them gradually became thinner. The more powerful the divine beast bloodline was, the more likely it would be in the hands by super large sects or hermit clans.

Only a small portion of it was revealed in the market. However, they were all rare bloodlines. Some of the more powerful ones were in desolate mountains or dangerous places. Those places were extremely dangerous, and it was difficult for ordinary people to enter.

“If I can find a demonic beast that contains the bloodline of another divine beast, even if it’s just a little bit, I can still purify it.”

Gu Xi’s heart skipped a beat. He imagined himself having an army of divine beasts in the future. Just their formation alone would be enough to intimidate everyone, let alone their strength.

Moreover, the divine beasts were extremely powerful. In the later stages, they could even speak human language and turn into human forms. Among the demonic beasts, they were like royal emperors.
