Chapter 532: Chapter 445: Jiang Qiu Forms the 2nd Doppelganger, Ascending to the Spirit Control Realm

She wasn’t disappointed, though. In fact, her connection with Jiang Qiu had only grown stronger. In a way, it was as if their hearts were now linked.

Her Cultivation continued like this. The process of forming the second avatar was still ongoing; it wasn’t something that could be finished in an instant. It had only just taken its initial form, and the true Refinement was yet to come.

Amidst their Cultivation, time flew by. In the blink of an eye, another three years had passed!

Creating the second avatar took a total of three and a half years. It was only this fast because Jiang Qiu was involved. But paradoxically, the very thing that slowed the process down was the upgrade to the connection between Jiang Qiu and the Nine-tailed Fox!

At the time, he’d had a sudden idea. He wanted to use the Nine-tailed Fox’s Talent to develop the ability he once shared with Snow—Secret Technique sharing. Sure enough, the Nine-tailed Fox’s body adapted perfectly, and the development was a success.

This single ability cost Jiang Qiu a great deal of time. Fortunately, the Nine-tailed Fox was now able to receive his legacy and Cultivation Techniques.

Whenever Jiang Qiu wished, he could allow the Nine-tailed Fox to use Secret Techniques she had never mastered herself, instantly elevating her power to its absolute peak!

Furthermore, her current aura, compared to when she had first undergone Transformation or created her One-tailed avatar, had soared to an indescribable level!

If not for the lack of clear Realm metrics, Jiang Qiu would have suspected that the Nine-tailed Fox had already cultivated to a stage beyond the Transformation Realm!

In the midst of this process, Jiang Qiu’s own Realm had also broken through. He had now entered the Spirit Control Realm. He could finally cast off many of his former restrictions and actively use certain Secret Techniques, which in turn made it more convenient to help the Nine-tailed Fox.

In truth, the connection between him and the Nine-tailed Fox went even further. They could transfer Heaven and Earth Spirit Charm between each other—it was far more than just sharing Secret Techniques!

Jiang Qiu took a deep breath and stood up. He felt his entire aura ascend to an unprecedented level. He now had the appearance of a young man of about sixteen or seventeen.

As for his specific appearance, it was reminiscent of Chen’s first appearance—an air of unrivaled might, an indifferent gaze, and the natural aura of the Dragon Race emanating from him.

His strength had reached an unimaginable level. ‘I feel like I don’t need to worry about the so-called Great Dominators at all anymore,’ he thought. ‘Perhaps only the legendary True Dominator, the Golden Eagle, could withstand a single blow from me.’

The transformation for the Dragon Race from Opening Spirit Veins to the Spirit Control Realm was truly unexpected. How could ordinary members of the Demon Race possibly compare?

It had only taken him one or two months to reach the Opening Spirit Veins stage, but it took three years to reach the Spirit Control Realm. The disparity spoke for itself. He felt his physical body had become indestructible. At the very least, if the Nine-tailed Fox didn’t use her full power or special techniques, her sharp, scarlet claws couldn’t even break the skin on his chest!

That’s right—the Nine-tailed Fox, who was suspected to be at a level beyond Transformation, couldn’t scratch his skin. On what grounds could any other member of the Demon Race possibly break through his defenses?

For this very reason, Jiang Qiu felt a powerful aura surge from within. “It’s time to head to the territories of the other Great Dominators and get some Spirit Fruits.”

“Yes, Master,” the Nine-tailed Fox nodded. An inexplicably devout, enchanting light swirled in her eyes, as if Jiang Qiu was reflected in her every gaze. “I will do as you say.”

She now felt like a little kitten secretly curled up in her beloved’s heart—a little anxious, yet very happy.

There was a simple reason for this: her Soul was truly resting within Jiang Qiu’s heart. It seemed his every word and every heartbeat could make her Soul tremble. It was an irrepressible connection that came from the very depths of her being.

As for the little loli, One-tailed, she hadn’t been idle either. For the past three years, she had been both guarding the cave and cultivating, helping them gather a great abundance of Heaven and Earth Spirit Charm.

This meant their Cultivation efficiency was at least tripled. They had absorbed nearly all the Heaven and Earth Spirit Charm in the entire White Mist Forest, to the point that the forest could no longer produce Spirit Charm of such density.

The Heaven and Earth Spirit Charm in this area showed signs of depletion, which was why Jiang Qiu and the Nine-tailed Fox had reluctantly emerged from their state of Cultivation.

Meanwhile, Xiong Batian had been hunting in the vicinity, acting as a Guardian for the outer perimeter. As a mighty Great Demon at the Spirit Control Realm and a Dominator Level existence, he had almost no enemies!

Even on the rare occasion he encountered a member of the Demon Race stronger than him, he would fight until he emerged victorious. His speed was so great that even if someone could defeat him, they couldn’t catch him.

And so, in three years, using the Cultivation Technique Jiang Qiu had taught him, he had actually reached the Perfection of the Spirit Control Realm!

He went from occasionally encountering strong opponents and being forced to flee, to being evenly matched in the Middle Stage and struggling to find a worthy adversary. Now, he was the number one demon under the Great Dominator, the Nine-tailed Fox!

That’s right, the number one demon under the Nine-tailed Fox. All the Demon Race near the White Mist Forest could be considered her followers. Who among them didn’t know of the Nine-tailed Fox?

And if they didn’t, Xiong Batian would make sure they learned. He had beaten up every single one of the hundreds, even thousands, of Dominators in the surrounding area.

The truly ferocious ones, he ate. Those with more agreeable temperaments, he largely ignored, simply telling them to behave and show respect to the Nine-tailed Fox and himself from then on.

As for why he didn’t mention Jiang Qiu, it was because when Jiang Qiu and the Nine-tailed Fox began their Cultivation, they had told him there was no need to involve Jiang Qiu. He could just go about his own business.

After all, there was no need for Jiang Qiu to waste time on these unknown members of the Demon Race, so he let Xiong Batian do as he pleased.

But Xiong Batian felt it wasn’t right for him to be acting alone, so he invoked the Nine-tailed Fox’s name.

He had noticed that the Nine-tailed Fox, a member of the Demon Race whose power he once couldn’t even fathom, was growing closer and closer to his master, Jiang Qiu. Even their auras were influencing each other. Clearly, her relationship with the master was much closer than his own.

He subconsciously began to see the Nine-tailed Fox as being on the same side as his master. She was already powerful in her own right, and now he couldn’t even begin to guess her Realm. Just her little loli avatar alone could suppress him with ease!

The crucial point was that she could create an avatar. Such a bizarre technique could only have been bestowed by Jiang Qiu. It was no less than a divine gift, and he naturally understood its significance.

It meant that Jiang Qiu held the Nine-tailed Fox in high regard, and he knew he must respect her as well. That was why every time he went to fight a powerful Dominator, he would invoke her name.

Sometimes, he would even wander around the White Mist Forest with the little loli One-tailed on his back, who served as a clear representative of the Nine-tailed Fox. “Sister One-tailed, have Master and Sister Nine-tailed finished their Cultivation?”

Xiong Batian asked the petite loli on his back as he strolled through the woods. It surprisingly reminded him of carrying his master back in the day; they were both so small.

However, according to One-tailed, his master had grown quite a bit and was now about the same height as the Nine-tailed Fox.

“Mhm, they’ve finished cultivating, and they’re preparing to go conquer the other Great Dominators,” the little fox, One-tailed, nodded, her chubby little face flushing a faint, rosy pink. “They might even challenge the Golden Eagle.”

She was the Nine-tailed Fox’s avatar and shared her Soul, so she knew what had happened in the cave. She could feel everything they felt, and some of the subtle power would even sync with her own body.

Her cheeks would flush red without her even realizing it.

“They’re already challenging the Great Dominators!” Xiong Batian’s eyes widened in excitement. “That was so fast!”

Three years wasn’t a long time. For a member of the Demon Race like him, being able to surpass stronger enemies in such a short period was already miraculous.

It could take decades just to succeed at Opening Spirit Veins, yet now, after only three years, they were going to fight beings above the Spirit Control Realm. How could that not be considered fast?

He didn’t dare to imagine what level his master had reached now.
