Jiang Yishan paused for a moment, looked around the room, and then continued.
"What I said about not provoking them is only temporary."
"At least, we can't send people to take revenge on Zhang Xing immediately.
"If we act rashly, the consequences might be the same as the Fox Empire.
"So, my opinion is that we have to pay close attention to Zhang Xing's every move. It's best if we can get close to him and find out his secrets."
The Great Elder kept nodding after hearing that. The others also seemed to agree.
…
Zhang Xing had been rejecting all guests at Pratt's residence for the past few days. He didn't meet any of the family heads who came from the vassal families.
When he wasn't around, these people would hide far away and laugh at him. They would even bare their fangs and take a bite out of him.
Now that they knew he was still alive, they were buzzing around like bees. They were just trying to get some benefits out of him.
Zhang Xing wouldn't give them any benefits. If they had the ability, they could develop it themselves.
He was thinking about how to help the old man improve his cultivation.
Pratt was already halfway to becoming a Demon Lord, but he didn't have powerful magic power to back him up. He couldn't break through the shackles of being half a step away from becoming a Demon Lord.
He couldn't refine the level-up pill. He didn't have the recipe and ingredients.
He didn't have enough spirit stones.
In the end, he could only use dragon aura.
But Zhang Xing wasn't confident. He could use dragon aura to help Na Bao and the others.
But helping the old man to break through to the Venerable realm was something he didn't dare to experiment with.
"Zhang Xing, I've thought about it. When have we not risked our lives to cultivate? Let me try it myself."
Zhang Xing didn't tell the old man the truth. He only said that he could provide a place to break through.
There was abundant magic power and battle aura inside. Whether he could succeed or not depended on himself.
The old man only thought for a night before agreeing.
"Good. Even if you don't succeed, your life won't be in danger, and there won't be any side effects."
Zhang Xing comforted him again.
When the old man was ready, Zhang Xing brought him to a stone room on Dragon Island.
Sensing the unique aura here, the old man frowned.
"Zhang Xing, although this aura is dense, it doesn't seem to have much effect on me, right?"
"Hehe, it's not that useful now, but it will be in a while."
After saying that, Zhang Xing waved his hand and the atmosphere within the 800-square-metre stone room suddenly changed.
The dense gas was all sucked away by Zhang Xing and then spat out from his right palm.
Then, new gas was added. Filtered by Zhang Xing, it was turned into pure magic power that Pratt could absorb.
This …
Old Master Pratt had thought that he was immune to Zhang Xing.
But he didn't expect him to be able to create such a method of converting gas.
This was too inconceivable.
"Let's begin, old man. Don't think too much," Zhang Xing said with a smile.
The old man put away his shock and focused his mind a minute later.
The Mana in the stone room was rapidly absorbed by Pratt.
On the other side, Zhang Xing was crazily transferring it.
The amount of magic power required for a high-level Demon Emperor to become a beginner Venerable was almost 30 to 40 times more than the Demon Emperor himself. Some even needed 100 times more.
After observing for a while, the old man probably needed 50 times more magic power than himself.
This was quite a burden for Zhang Xing.
But it was still acceptable, it just took a little longer.
Ten minutes passed, and Pratt was still absorbing like crazy.
Two hours passed, and Pratt's absorption speed increased instead of decreasing.
Zhang Xing sat quietly at the entrance of the stone room and went all out. He quickly mobilized the Dragon Aura in Dragon Island and transferred it out from his body.
Four hours, six hours ….
Until 18 hours, the magic power in the stone room suddenly surged into Pratt's body.
Then, there was a series of cracking sounds like firecrackers.
Finally, there was a loud bang.
A super powerful aura erupted from the old man's body.
Boom!
Venerable Realm!
