Chapter 39 Dragon Clan Secret Realm
The Great Elder was not in a hurry for Xu Zhenfeng to improve his realm. With his talent of being able to devour other demonic powers, improving the realm of his demonic power was actually the least important thing.
There are tens of millions of wolf monsters in the wolf tribe. If one monster contributes a little power, it will be enough for Xu Zhenfeng to devour it and practice.
What he was concerned about was whether Xu Zhenfeng would absorb the demonic power too easily when cultivating, thus making his realm foundation not as pure and stable as that of other demons who cultivated their power bit by bit on their own.
It is said that Xu Zhenfeng's cultivation is not easy. Every time he cultivates, his flesh and blood will be crushed. How can this be called easy? It is more than a hundred times more difficult than the cultivation of other monsters, but he does not have to worry about the source of monster power.
After thinking for a while, he could only wait and see. After Xu Zhenfeng's realm was improved, he would check whether his foundation was solid.
Then decide how to teach him to practice. Since he can devour demonic power to practice, it is necessary to feed him with demonic power.
The Great Elder pondered for a long time and then looked at the Wolf Buyan monsters. The strongest of these wolf monsters was only at the first level of the Profound Rank, and the weakest was only at the eighth level of the Yellow Rank. Their demonic power was definitely not enough to supply Xu Zhenfeng.
No, we need to discuss it with the other elders. Replenishing the demon power cannot be done by relying on just these few old guys.
Even now Xu Zhenfeng can devour their demonic power. Although not much, he will be promoted to the Xuan level, the Di level, and even the Tian level in the future.
At that time, even if the old wolf demons risked their lives, they would not be able to supply the needs.
The Great Elder kept calculating in his mind. Fortunately, there were many wolf monsters in the wolf tribe, including several big monsters. In addition, the secret realm of the dragon tribe was opened once every ten years, and there were countless monsters in the secret realm. He could also hunt them and take treasures at will.
As long as the plan is proper, Xu Zhenfeng's cultivation will not lack demonic power to devour.
Thinking of this, the Great Elder's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Oh, no, if too many monsters knew about Xu Zhenfeng’s special talent, the news would inevitably leak out.
Once the other major demon tribes knew that Xu Zhenfeng had such a heaven-defying talent, two fists would be no match for four hands. No matter how the wolf tribe defended, it would be difficult to protect Xu Zhenfeng.
It’s not like the wolf clan hasn’t had geniuses with outstanding talents in the past, but they just haven’t had the ability to practice physical skills or devour demonic powers.
Even so, the former wolf clan genius, at the age of one hundred, already possessed the strength of the first level of the mysterious rank. Unfortunately, in the secret realm of the dragon clan, he was plotted against by several other clans and died before he reached adulthood.
Thinking of this, the Great Elder couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If they hadn't lost that incredibly talented descendant, how could their wolf clan have ended up in such a situation today, where even the fox clan could suppress them.
Having learned from the previous lesson, Xu Zhenfeng must not allow anything to happen again.
The Great Elder thought about it and decided that he had to call several other elders to discuss a comprehensive solution.
"Zhenfeng, you should just practice like this first. After you have completed ten cycles, you can practice magic. Let them help you practice. I will go find your second master and his friends and come back this afternoon."
After the Great Elder finished speaking, he stood up, walked out of the yard, and went straight to the meeting hall.
Xu Zhenfeng touched his head. Is this how my master teaches me to practice magic? Isn't this fun?
If you practice on your own and let Lang Buyan and the others practice, then what is the need for me, your master?
It’s a good thing that they were fighting over it yesterday.
After the Great Elder left, Xu Zhenfeng continued to practice, while Lang Buyan and the others stood guard at the gate of the courtyard, fearing that someone would break in without any eyes.
Thanks to the fact that he had devoured a lot of the demonic power of several elders yesterday, Xu Zhenfeng felt more pain than before when he practiced today.
Even so, Xu Zhenfeng gritted his teeth and circulated his magic power around to walk around.
However, after he circulated and condensed it for four or five cycles, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the more he circulated and refined the demonic power he had absorbed, and the more proficiently he circulated and refined it, and the more it truly became his own demonic power, the more the pain of crushing flesh and blood would gradually weaken.
By the sixth cycle, all the absorbed demonic power had been condensed into a rich and pure substance, and as it flushed through his body, the pain could almost be ignored.
After completing the circulation of the Qi this time, he stopped practicing and began to ponder the principle behind it.
The demonic power that he had absorbed had not yet been condensed into his own demonic power. When it circulated through his body for the first time, the pain of washing over his flesh and blood was the most severe.
After three times, all the demonic powers merged into one, and the pain was reduced by at least half.
After six cycles of circulation, when all the demonic power has been refined to purity, there will be almost no pain.
If this happens every time after absorbing demonic power, then I can continue this practice.
After all, the more refined and proficient the demonic power is, the less pain it will cause when it is in operation. One only needs to endure the first three smeltings, and the next three will be no problem at all.
After figuring out this truth, Xu Zhenfeng's mood suddenly improved. A morning of practice had made him feel full of hunger.
He hurriedly asked Lang Buyan to prepare lunch. He could only feel his stomach rumbling. He had never felt such extreme hunger before.
When the servants brought the barbecue, Xu Zhenfeng sat at the table and finished the whole pot of barbecue in just a few blinks of an eye.
Seeing that there was still one pot of Sky Howl beast meat left, he quickly said to Wolf Bu Yan: "Tell them to roast two more pots, these are not enough."
The wolf covered his mouth and laughed without saying a word. He didn't know who it was, but he was so pretentious at the beginning and refused to eat the monster meat. Now it really smells good, right?
Not long after lunch, the Great Elder returned here again.
Xu Zhenfeng told him that after practicing the Qi circulation several times, he no longer felt the pain of his flesh and blood being crushed.
To be honest, this is the first time Xu Zhenfeng has practiced the True Erba Jing since he started practicing. Before, he would only practice it once or twice and then stop.
After practicing for a whole morning today, he realized that not every practice session would be as torture as before.
This discovery greatly encouraged Xu Zhenfeng's determination to practice, although every time he condensed new demonic power it was like falling into purgatory.
But as long as it's not always like this, he, a king of curling who once risked his life for the sake of curling, can still accept it.
The Great Elder was delighted when he heard this. This way, it would not be so difficult for Xu Zhenfeng to continue practicing in the future.
"I have discussed with your masters. From today on, we will take turns to feed you with demonic power. You should first work hard to improve your realm. When the Dragon Clan Secret Realm is opened, if your realm can reach the Xuan level, you can follow other members of the same clan into the secret realm.
That's a good opportunity. There are many demon tribes in there, and you can devour their demonic power. If the opportunity is good enough, you may even be able to obtain the ancient lost demonic arts of your tribe."
"Dragon clan secret realm?"
Xu Zhenfeng asked in confusion.
"The Dragon Clan Secret Realm is a Void Secret Realm passed down by the Monster King Clan, located within the Spirit Pillar of the Monster Mountain. The first generation of Monster Kings began to work hard to open up this secret space, and it took the combined efforts of dozens of generations of Monster Kings to open up this Void Secret Realm.
The secret realm is used to exile powerful and extremely evil monsters, as well as some monsters that have gone astray and lost their minds while practicing magic. Over time, there are more and more monsters in the secret realm. It will be opened once every ten years to allow outstanding descendants of various monster tribes to enter and test their skills, or to capture and kill a group of monsters, which can also alleviate the instability of the secret realm caused by too many monsters. "
After the Great Elder finished speaking, he paused for a moment. Thinking that Xu Zhenfeng had originally sought refuge with the Little Demon and did not know much about the Demon Mountain, he explained it in detail to Xu Zhenfeng.
"The secret realm was opened up by the first demon king. Each demon king will continue to open up and strengthen the secret realm after taking over. Just think about how many years it has been. How many demons are there in there, from the first demon king to the exiled monsters today?
In the secret realm, no monster can escape, and the lost magic arts of ancient times are also easy to be passed down in the secret realm, but this is very rare, it depends on your luck. "
Xu Zhenfeng couldn't believe that the Demon King clan had the ability to open up a secret space, and he couldn't help but be amazed.
"Does every generation of demon kings have such great power? To be able to open up and reinforce the secret realm until now, the natural dragon race is really amazing."
The great elder nodded and said, "Condensing space is the innate magic of the dragon race. It is indeed extraordinary, but as for the talents of different races, each race has its own strengths."
"Then what is the racial talent of our wolf tribe?"
Xu Zhenfeng asked hurriedly.
The Great Elder smiled and said, "The Wolf Clan practices magic, and they don't have any special talents, but they are the most balanced among the monsters in terms of speed, strength, agility, and endurance. Unlike other monsters, some are good at strength, but their speed and agility are hard to describe. Some have agility but no strength, and some have speed but no strength."
"For example, the bear tribe has thick skin and great strength, but is clumsy and slow. The elephant tribe and the python tribe are similar. The fox tribe is agile enough, but its strength is shallow, and its speed and endurance are not as good as our wolf tribe.
The leopard tribe has strength, agility, and speed, but no endurance. Moreover, even in terms of agility and speed, the leopard tribe cannot match our wolf tribe. The lion tribe and tiger tribe also have enough strength and some speed, but lack endurance and agility. "
Xu Zhenfeng smiled secretly in his heart. The Great Elder's words inevitably contained some boasting, but the wolf population was indeed quite balanced in all aspects.
The elder saw Xu Zhenfeng's mouth slightly raised, and knew what he was thinking, and said: "The intelligence of our wolf tribe is not much worse than that of the fox tribe. However, for tens of thousands of years, the fox tribe and a few snake tribes of the python tribe have been in charge of government affairs in our demon mountain, responsible for communication with the human and demon tribes. Over time, our wolf tribe has become lazy."
When he said this, the Great Elder felt a little uncomfortable. Now the court of Demon Mountain was almost completely controlled by the snake clan, which was a branch of the fox clan and the python clan. Even the big demons of various clans guarding the border town had to look at their faces.
The wolf clan and the fox clan have always been at odds with each other, and several wolf clan monsters guarding the border towns have suffered enough from the withholding of military funds and military supplies.
