Chapter 545 - 544: Assaulting the Nascent Soul Realm

Chapter 545: Chapter 544: Assaulting the Nascent Soul Realm

"And two big sisters!" Little Shi Tou blinked his gem-like eyes and said in a childish voice.

"Yaa!" Upon seeing Ling Fei, Yiyi let out a soft cry, covering its face with its little paws, looking as if it had been caught doing something wrong.

"Yiyi!" Seeing this, Ling Fei, Shangguan Wan’Er, and Lian Shuang were all stunned.

Just a moment ago, they were worried about Yiyi, but the little creature was actually in Little Shi Tou’s arms.

"Yaa!" As if sensing Ling Fei’s gaze, Yiyi let out another soft cry, then darted out of Little Shi Tou’s arms and flew toward Ling Fei.

"Yiya, yiya!" Yiyi flew over and landed on Ling Fei’s shoulder. It then nuzzled its fluffy little head against Ling Fei’s neck, chirping "yiya, yiya" affectionately. Then, it narrowed its eyes and revealed an innocent smile, as if trying to pretend that its little escapade had never happened.

"You little rascal, I thought you were lost!" Ling Fei gently stroked Yiyi’s little head, a smile appearing on his face.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Yiyi had been with him for a long time, and Ling Fei had long since come to see it as family.

"Yiyi?"

’So that little beast really is Young Master Ling’s pet.’ The Grand Elder and the others realized.

"Brother Ling Fei!" Little Shi Tou ran over. The little boy looked up at Ling Fei, though his gaze was fixed more on Yiyi.

"Little Brother Shi Tou!" Ling Fei smiled and looked at Little Shi Tou. He hadn’t seen him in a month, and the boy’s aura had grown much more profound.

His Stone Patterns, in particular, seemed more complete.

"Brother Ling Fei, is this little beast yours?" Little Shi Tou looked up at Ling Fei and asked in a childish voice.

"Yes, it is!" Ling Fei smiled. "Its name is Yiyi."

"Yiyi!" Little Shi Tou blinked his gem-like eyes. "Brother Ling Fei, can you let it play with me?"

His face was full of longing; he seemed to really like Yiyi.

This made Ling Fei pause. ’Didn’t this little guy say he was an adult?’

Now his childish nature was completely exposed!

"Haha, of course." After a moment of surprise, Ling Fei smiled. He could also see that the little rascal Yiyi enjoyed playing with Little Shi Tou.

This was because Little Shi Tou had so many Spiritual Essences, which was a real treat for Yiyi.

In just one month, Yiyi’s Essence Qi had recovered a great deal, and its Power had also soared. It was now unfathomably strong.

Ling Fei also wanted Yiyi to recover its Essence Qi quickly.

"That’s great!" Hearing this, Little Shi Tou was overjoyed. The little boy stretched out his chubby hands towards Yiyi and said in his childish voice, "Yiyi, come here, let me hold you!" Seeing the boy’s earnest expression, Ling Fei gestured to Yiyi, which then flashed and landed in Little Shi Tou’s arms.

"Yiyi, from now on, you’ll play with me, okay? Brother Ling Fei has to cultivate, so we shouldn’t bother him!" After hugging Yiyi, Little Shi Tou stroked the soft fur on its neck and said with a very serious expression.

"This..." Ling Fei was left speechless by his words.

Shangguan Wan’Er and Lian Shuang, who were standing nearby, were also flabbergasted.

’It seems Little Shi Tou is trying to brainwash the little beast!’ the Grand Elder thought, stunned.

’If you want the little beast to follow you, just say so. Why bring up not disturbing someone’s cultivation?’

’What a shameless excuse!’

"Ahem." Old Shi Ren looked embarrassed. His great-grandson was a little too... mature!

"And these two are?" To dispel the awkwardness, Old Shi Ren stepped forward and looked at Shangguan Wan’Er and Lian Shuang.

"Ahem, these are my two senior sisters, Shangguan Wan’Er and Lian Shuang," Ling Fei said, still a bit embarrassed.

"Haha, since they are your senior sisters, they are our own people." Old Shi Ren smiled casually, successfully dispelling the awkwardness. "You only just emerged after a month in the Holy Pool. Did you manage to obtain my race’s inheritance?" he asked, his face full of anticipation. This was the very reason he had been waiting here.

"Thanks to the Old Clan Leader’s generosity, I did indeed receive your noble race’s inheritance." Ling Fei smiled. With a thought, a Light Pattern flashed in his Dantian, and a wave of Gravity emerged, accompanied by mystical patterns, forming a small Gravity Domain Field about ten feet in diameter.

"Not bad, not bad at all. To have mastered our race’s Gravity Divine Techniques in such a short time." Old Shi Ren nodded. "If you have time, you should come here more often. By using your Heart Spirit Sensing on the Holy Stone, you can continuously deepen your understanding of the way of the Holy Stone, thereby perfecting our race’s Gravity Divine Techniques."

"I will." Ling Fei nodded. In truth, he had already obtained the complete inheritance and even made a deal with the Stone Race’s Holy Stone Spirit.

But it wasn’t appropriate for Ling Fei to mention these things.

And so, Ling Fei, Shangguan Wan’Er, and Lian Shuang returned to their residence.

Little Shi Tou followed them.

"Brother Ling Fei, you just focus on your cultivation! You can leave Yiyi with me. I’ll definitely raise it to be nice and chubby!" But the little boy didn’t stay for long. He snatched up Yiyi and ran off, looking as if he was afraid Ling Fei wouldn’t let him take the creature.

It was hard not to laugh.

"Is that fellow really a little brat whose Divine Soul just awakened?" Shangguan Wan’Er and Lian Shuang both exclaimed in amazement.

Because based on the age of his Spiritual Wisdom, Little Shi Tou should only be a month old!

But seeing his sly look, he was just like a mischievous child.

Shi Gang and Shi Gao, who were nearby, also looked astonished.

’Our Young Master is truly...’

They didn’t dare say the rest.

"For now, you two can stay here without any worries," Ling Fei said to Shangguan Wan’Er and Lian Shuang.

Now that Old Shi Ren knew about them and had no objections, Ling Fei could finally relax.

’I’ll start by refining a few batches of pills,’ Ling Fei thought to himself. He planned to refine some Spirit Awakening Pills first; otherwise, he would feel quite embarrassed.

Soon, he began his alchemy.

After being cleansed by the Holy Pool Water, Ling Fei’s Divine Soul was now even more powerful, and refining elixirs had become increasingly effortless for him.

In addition, he found it much easier to control the Spirit Awakening Dao Pattern.

’The Stone Race has six Elders, so I’ll refine six Spirit Awakening Pills first!’ Soon, Ling Fei had refined six top-grade Spirit Awakening Pills.

He had the elderly Shi Chongyuan personally deliver the elixirs to the several Elders.

At the same time, he also refined a pill for Elder Shi.

This was a King, an expert whose Power surpassed even that of Kun Hai, who had once brought disaster to the Southern Wilderness. Now that he was serving as Ling Fei’s guard, he had to be given some benefits.

The Elders of the Stone Race were all delighted upon receiving the elixirs.

"Big Brother, which of your great-grandsons are you planning to give this elixir to?" the others asked each other.

’Which great-grandson should I give it to?’ the Grand Elder mused. ’Instead of giving it to those little bastards, I’d rather take it myself.’

He got angry just thinking about his descendants.

Back then, he had asked his own descendants to serve as Ling Fei’s guards.

But not a single one was willing to go.

’And now they want an elixir?’

’I might as well take it myself first,’ the Grand Elder thought.

He was already a Quasi-Heaven-Reaching Realm expert, but he had been unable to take that final half-step for a long time.

This often made the Grand Elder sigh. He felt his comprehension was just a hair’s breadth away, and perhaps the Spirit Awakening Pill could help.

"Hehe, that will depend on how those little rascals behave." Of course, while he thought this, his words were different.

"Second Elder, what about you?" he asked the Second Elder.

"Hehe, I’ll naturally have to see how filial these kids are," the Second Elder laughed, but inwardly he thought, ’These arrogant bastards... giving it to them would be a waste. I’d rather this old man try it out first.’ He had also been coveting the Spirit Awakening Pill for a long time but was too embarrassed to ask for one.

Now that Ling Fei had sent them over, they were naturally unwilling to miss the opportunity.

All six Elders were thinking the same thing.

...

After he finished refining the elixirs, Ling Fei entered seclusion.

Shangguan Wan’Er and Lian Shuang also entered seclusion to prepare for their tribulation.

’The Stone Race are born with the inheritance of the Celestially Stone Dao Pattern. They only need to continuously perfect this Dao Pattern to increase their Power.’

Ling Fei was constantly verifying what he had gained.

’As for me, I am an outsider. I wasn’t born with the Celestially Stone Dao Pattern, but I have mastered the Mystical of Stone Patterns...’

’Now, I will condense this mystical art into a Mystical Technique Pattern and integrate it for my own use. In the future, this will become one of my Divine Techniques.’

A flash went through Ling Fei’s eyes, his mind as clear as a mirror.

’Furthermore, the Mystical of Celestial Stone will become one of my Daos.’

Ling Fei was already exceptionally talented with outstanding comprehension. He had also fused with the Spirit Awakening Dao Pattern, so the stronger his Divine Soul became, the clearer and sharper his Spiritual Wisdom grew.

With just a little verification, he had already mastered the Stone Race’s inheritance and made it his own.

’In that case, I can now completely transform it into a Divine Skill Pattern!’ A flash shot through Ling Fei’s eyes. He abruptly stood up, looked to the sky, and declared word by word, "Then, today, I will achieve the Nascent Soul, condense the Divine Wheel Pattern, and step into the Divine Wheel First Realm!" At that moment, the Celestial Pill in his Dantian erupted with a terrifying aura.

The Spiritual Sense within it was transforming, about to condense and take form.

BUZZ!

Ling Fei’s Celestial Pill suddenly cracked, revealing a brilliant golden light. A Nascent Soul appeared within his Divine Sense.

This was the prototype of a Nascent Soul, gestating within the Celestial Pill. It could be condensed upon reaching the Quasi-Nascent Soul Realm.

Now that the Celestial Pill was cracking, it meant he was breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

The Nascent Soul emerged, no longer blurry, becoming clearer and clearer.

The aura of this Nascent Soul was also constantly strengthening.

A vast Celestial Might suddenly descended from the heavens, gathering in the sky.

The sudden descent of Celestial Might immediately alarmed everyone in the Eldest Young Master’s Mansion.

"What’s happening?!"

"It’s Celestial Might!"

"Is Ling Fei about to undergo his tribulation?!" Even Shangguan Wan’Er and Lian Shuang were startled, and both emerged from their seclusion.

At this moment, Ling Fei had already appeared on the mountain peak.

"Celestial Tribulation!" Ling Fei’s gaze sharpened. He had experienced this Celestial Tribulation before, so he had nothing to fear.

The tribulation clouds gathered, alarming everyone in the Stone Race.

Even Old Shi Ren was watching the scene from a nearby mountain peak.

WHOOSH!

A sinister wind swept in, rushing toward Ling Fei. The terrifying yin wind carried the power of death, threatening to annihilate everything. Wherever it passed, the grass and trees withered.

Ling Fei’s body immediately felt an aura of death.

The moment the sinister wind invaded his body, he could feel the life force in his flesh and blood weakening.

"Sinister wind!" Feeling this familiar power, the corners of Ling Fei’s mouth curled into a faint smile. Immediately, Blood Qi surged within his body, and Stone Patterns bloomed.

A wave of Domain Power spread out, blocking the force of the sinister wind and protecting his body.
