Time passed little by little, and in a blink of an eye, more than two months had passed.
On this day, Zhang Ling, who was meditating and cultivating in his cave, suddenly changed his expression. A burst of anxious calls also came from within his sea of consciousness.
Startled, Zhang Ling quickly opened the stone door of the quiet room and rushed out.
In the blink of an eye, he was outside the cave, instantly released the flying boat, and flew quickly towards the direction of the volcanoes on Fire Cloud Island.
At the same time, he constantly used his divine soul to appease the consciousness of the Twin-tailed Orange Cat.
And he was a little strange in his heart, this Twin-tailed Cat spirit beast has always been good, every day except eating is sleeping, what happened today.
Under the induction of the power of the divine soul, this spirit beast is a little anxious and impetuous.
Having been on Fire Cloud Island for some time, there is basically no danger here. Therefore, he also kept this spirit beast in a free-range state.
The Twin-tailed Cat is basically left alone every day except for feeding a few Spirit Feeding Pills, but relying on the forbidden spell placed on the spirit beast, he can still sense this beast.
The Twin-tailed Cat's activity range is generally only around his cave. Its strength has reached the late stage of the first order. Unless it encounters a strength above Foundation Establishment, or a second-order monster, it is possible to make it so anxious.
Could it be that other monsters or cultivators have entered Fire Cloud Island?
Zhang Ling fully controlled the flying boat, and the speed doubled. After a while, he saw a volcano.
Following the induction in his divine sense, he landed without hesitation on a rocky area on the back of the volcano.
After scanning his eyes around, he found the spirit beast behind a boulder.
Meow... Meow!
A ball of red light swept over, and the Twin-tailed Cat flashed and rushed towards him.
Zhang Ling waved his hand, a talisman appeared in his hand, and with a gentle flick, the talisman turned into a cyan net and trapped the Twin-tailed Cat in place.
Zhang Ling's divine sense condensed, and he could see clearly that the Twin-tailed Cat's body was now several times larger, like a tiger.
Strangely, its eyes were blood red, and some black and red patterns appeared on its body. After looking at the Twin-tailed Cat in front of him, Zhang Ling couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
The lines on its body flickered, flashing with spiritual light, and at the same time, the two tails at the end of its tail became strange. One tail was scarlet red, and the other was jet black.
Meow!
Before Zhang Ling could understand what was going on, the Twin-tailed Cat in the spirit net quickly climbed to his feet, constantly rubbing against his trouser legs, and his divine sense actively transmitted a strong desire consciousness.
Seeing this, he communicated with the power of his divine soul. Immediately, he was overjoyed.
He quickly patted the storage bag, took out two jade bottles, and with two soft sounds, more than a dozen small black-brown pills floated out.
These pills are all Spirit Feeding Pills.
Zhang Ling waved his hand, and these pills reached the Twin-tailed Cat's big mouth.
The blood light flashed in the beast's eyes, and it swallowed all the pills.
Afterwards, the blood color in its eyes faded a lot, and the beast also lay on the ground, emitting a layer of fire spiritual power, wrapping itself in it, forming a layer of condensed flame mask.
Seeing this, Zhang Ling pinched a spell, and the cyan net that trapped the Twin-tailed Cat disappeared.
At the same time, he took out a few spirit stones and arranged a simple spirit gathering array centered on the spirit beast.
Then, with a flash, he sat on a boulder next to him, staring at the Twin-tailed Cat without blinking.
"I didn't expect this guy to be advancing."
Looking at the flame mask transformed by the Twin-tailed Cat, Zhang Ling couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This spirit beast, which is suspected to be a mutated monster, has been with him for decades.
Its strength has always been at the first-order level, and it basically can't help him much. He has never released it during battles.
It has always been raised as an ordinary spirit beast. I didn't expect that today, this spirit beast actually started to advance.
If it can break through to the second order, it can also be of some use. Zhang Ling thought in his heart.
The advancement of spirit beasts, like cultivators, is crucial. Seeing its condition, it is not easy to move.
He looked at the surrounding environment, frowned, and then released the flying boat again, carefully checking the space within a ten-mile radius.
What needs to be done now is to protect the spirit beast and let it break through safely.
But when Zhang Ling returned to the place where the Twin-tailed Cat was again, the beast had disappeared. Only a pile of rubble was left on the ground. It seemed to have been attacked.
Suddenly, Zhang Ling's heart sank, and he quickly sensed it with his divine sense, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He used his spiritual power and performed the Wind Control Technique, rushing towards the direction of the volcano.
When Zhang Ling found the Twin-tailed Cat again, the beast was actually in a pool of lava.
This surprised him very much.
In the lava, a spiritual light ball more than ten feet high protruded, in which the Twin-tailed Cat was lying.
At this moment, the black spiritual patterns on its body had faded a lot, and the red patterns that were originally some scattered were emitting a strong fire attribute spiritual power.
Zhang Ling found that as those red spiritual patterns flickered, the surrounding fire spiritual power was actually gathering towards this beast.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Ling was quite shocked. The advancement of this spirit beast seemed to be because of insufficient spiritual power that it came here.
The general first-order monster advancing to the second order will not have this kind of situation.
Zhang Ling didn't know what the reason was for this, and he couldn't help.
However, he patted the storage bag and took out five or six fist-sized fire spirit stones.
These are all middle-grade fire spirit stones, which he seized from Elder Chen's storage bag.
A few spirit stones were thrown by Zhang Ling and floated around the Twin-tailed Cat. Then he observed that the red patterns on the spirit beast became brighter again.
The spiritual power it absorbed seemed to be faster.
Seeing this, Zhang Ling felt relieved and found a place nearby to guard.
In this way, a whole day passed, but Zhang Ling frowned. He saw that the few middle-grade fire spirit stones that he had thrown out were mostly dimmed.
In one day, nearly three or four middle-grade spirit stones were consumed. Zhang Ling was still a little surprised.
Middle-grade spirit stones are not low-grade spirit stones, they contain a lot of spiritual energy. Even Golden Core stage cultivators will not use middle-grade spirit stones for cultivation.
And for a cultivator like him in the fake core realm, it would take more than two days to use up a low-grade spirit stone even if he absorbed it non-stop.
A middle-grade spirit stone is enough for a Foundation Establishment late-stage cultivator to cultivate for a month.
The value of middle-grade spirit stones is more than that, it can also drive powerful formations and quickly replenish spiritual power.
For a first-order monster to advance, three or four middle-grade spirit stones are enough.
But looking at the situation of the Twin-tailed Cat, it seems more than that.
Zhang Ling was half happy and half worried about this. He didn't feel sorry for a few spirit stones, but was a little worried about the Twin-tailed Cat.
The more spiritual energy absorbed, the more it proves that it is not an ordinary monster, and the stronger its strength will be after the advancement.
But it is also easy to have problems.
In this somewhat nervous and worried mood, Zhang Ling kept observing the situation of the Twin-tailed Cat.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. The Twin-tailed Cat had consumed more than a dozen middle-grade spirit stones. Zhang Ling had seven or eight middle-grade fire spirit stones left in his hand, in order to prevent insufficient spiritual power.
He also took out some low-grade fire attribute spirit stones from time to time.
During this time, the red spiritual patterns on the Twin-tailed Cat had gradually transformed into flame-like patterns.
And the black spiritual patterns that had suddenly appeared on its body before had also become faint, and could not be detected without careful observation.
Two more days passed, and at noon this day, a shocking roar came from the volcano.
Afterwards, bursts of violent fire attribute spiritual power were constantly scattered around.
This movement lasted for a full quarter of an hour before gradually subsiding.
