Tempered Immortal - Chapter4

"Strange, it's really strange. Why are there only First, Second, and Third Level Demonic Beasts?" Kuang Da was very surprised by the information he got from his Divine Sense.

Within a radius of a dozen Li, there were only Second and Third Level Demonic Beasts. There were only a few Fourth Level Demonic Beasts. This was too strange.

Lê Phong frowned slightly and asked: "Did you really not encounter any powerful Demonic Beasts in the past year?"

"I don't know. Occasionally, I would run away when I saw some powerful ones. I don't know what level they are."

"Then how did you sense danger?"

"A Tuantuan told me."

"A Tuantuan?"

"Oh, it's this one!" Yan Yue stretched out her hand to call the Tuantuan that was sleeping in its nest. She picked it up and showed it to everyone.

When Yao Yao saw that it was such a cute little bird, she immediately cheered and hugged it to play. Yan Yue also let it be. The Tuantuan was also a baby. She rarely played with it. Presumably, it had been lonely for a long time. Since someone was willing to play with it, Yan Yue was naturally very happy.

"A Fiery Red Bird, a Sixth Level Demonic Beast." When Cang Soul saw the Tuantuan, he immediately stated its level and species.

Lê Phong also nodded in agreement. "But this one is very strange. It's obviously a Sixth Level Demonic Beast, but it doesn't have any spiritual energy fluctuations. It also doesn't have the pressure of a Demonic Beast. Could it be that something went wrong when it was born?"

When Yan Yue heard this, her ears instantly turned red.

Back then, when she was trying to get some eggs to eat, she accidentally poked a Tuantuan that hadn't hatched from a tree. Therefore, the Tuantuan didn't crawl out naturally. It was probably smashed out when the eggshell broke.

She couldn't hide this kind of thing, so she had to tell the truth.

When Lê Phong saw Yan Yue's embarrassed appearance, he didn't want to dwell on this topic.

After listening to Yan Yue's description, in addition to the current situation, he could roughly guess the reason for the low level of the demonic beasts here.

Since they had met, Lê Phong decided to tell this twelve-year-old girl about his conjecture and save her from the fate of being eaten by demonic beasts.

"If my guess is correct, there should've been a powerful demonic beast living here. It should've been at least an eighth grade spirit beast. And, this area should've been its sphere of influence.

Although this was the middle region, the density of Spirit Qi here was several times higher than other places in the middle region.

You've been living peacefully for more than a year, and I reckon that the eighth grade spirit beast is either in seclusion or dead. You were actually able to meet a sixth grade Scarlet Fire Bird's cub here, so I think this might be the demonic beast's cub. But the Scarlet Fire Bird wouldn't abandon its cub, so I reckon it's most likely dead.

In the middle region, the pressure of an eighth grade spirit beast is still very strong. This place is very likely its territory. Even if it's dead, the pressure of a spirit beast will slowly dissipate after several years.

Little Sister Yan, it's better for you to leave this place as soon as possible. This place will only be safe for two years at most. After that, it will be invaded by fifth or sixth grade spirit beasts.

First, second, and third grade spirit beasts don't have any intelligence, so it'll be easy for you to deal with them. But spirit beasts of fourth grade and above will have some intelligence and can release magic. I believe that you won't be willing to become a demonic beast's food, right? "

After closing her eyes and taking two deep breaths, Yan Yue opened her eyes and bowed to Lê Phong. Then, she raised her head and said, "Thank you for your advice. I'll remember it. If you can directly call me by my name, Yan Yue, I think I'll be happier."

"Alright then.

Little Yan, it's fate that brought us together. Do you want to go to the Cultivation World with your big brother? It'll be much more fun than staying here. Or do you want to go to the Mortal World? "

Lê Phong raised his eyebrows. He was very satisfied with his suggestion. Yan Yue wasn't like those little girls in the Mortal World who were timid and weak. On the contrary, she was a very courageous and rational little girl. Perhaps it would be better to take her as a disciple than to casually take someone from the outside. En, the more Lê Phong thought about it, the more he felt that this suggestion was good.

Cultivation World?

This strange yet familiar word attacked Yan Yue's brain over and over again.

So the Xuanhuan Cultivation World in novels really existed in this world.

But, why was he so good to her when they had just met?

Right now, she was just a pauper. There wasn't anything she wanted. Could it be that she was thinking too much?

She clearly wanted it, yet she wasn't willing to accept it. She clearly liked to be alone, yet she couldn't stand the loneliness of being alone. These words described the contradictory feelings in Yan Yue's heart right now!

"Zhizhi, zhizhi" The Tuantuan nudged Yan Yue's trousers, bringing back her wandering thoughts.

She reached out and picked up the Tuantuan. Suddenly, an unknown object fell from the little guy's claws. Yan Yue picked it up and glanced at it. Wasn't this the colored stone she had collected?

Just as she was about to put it back in her bosom, who knew that Li Gong would suddenly rush up and grab the colored stone in her hand. "Little Yan Yue, you … how did you get a level five Demon Core?"

"Eh" Scratching her head, Yan Yue said with some embarrassment, "I picked it up."

"Oh, oh, I say, if someone like you who doesn't have any spiritual energy is so powerful, then I don't need to live as a Foundation Establishment cultivator!

En, that … can you sell this Demon Core to me? "

"What's a Demon Core?

This one?

It looks like it's just an ordinary colored stone. "Yan Yue looked at this thing called Demon Core. Other than looking good, she really couldn't see any use for it. Of course, one good thing is that it's very comfortable to hold in the hand.

"Demon Core is …" Li Gong hasn't finished speaking when a busy figure came running from the distance. Yao Yao is hugging a large pile of multi-colored colored stones. While running she shouted, "Senior brothers and sisters look, so many, so many beautiful stones, I've never seen them before."

Seeing Yao Yao hugging so many Demon Cores, Li Gong was immediately frightened. Even his voice was somewhat stuttering as he said, "Yao … Junior sister Yao, where did you get so many Demon Cores?"

"Ah!

What Demon Cores, these were all found by that bird Little Yue Yue!

There are still so many, so many, so many, so I brought all the good-looking and big ones. "

Li Gong's inquisitive gaze swept toward Yan Yue, as if he was very interested in the origin of these Demon Cores.

"It's just this year's harvest, I thought it was pretty so I kept it."

"Heavens!

These are all Demon Cores, you don't even have spiritual energy, yet you can still collect so many, so amazing! "Even Li Gong, this somewhat mature girl, had a whole new level of respect for Yan Yue.

If everything depended on spiritual energy, the people on earth would have long gone extinct. Sure enough, with the change of times, there would always be some progress, but there would also always be some loss.

Yan Yue lightly sighed and said, "If these are Demon Cores, then I still have a lot of them. Hearing you say so, these can be sold, right? I want to know how many spirit stones this is worth, I don't know if I can exchange it for some cultivation techniques, even if it's elementary." If she could use this as a transaction, it would be better than receiving someone's favor for nothing. Yan Yue thought.
