106: This black dragon will only hinder your progress.

That aged voice, filled with endless vicissitudes and a hint of doubt, slowly rang out.

Ye Feiyan's footsteps, which had already been lifted, came to an abrupt halt!

She paused, somewhat suspicious, and looked at Old Ancestor Huo in confusion.

Even Shangguan Jing, who had already stepped one foot into the treasury gate, also stopped in his tracks.

He also turned around in confusion, looking at Old Ancestor Huo, who had suddenly spoken for some unknown reason.

However, Old Ancestor Huo's pair of giant eyes, which were like molten lava and filled with endless majesty, directly skipped over Ye Feiyan.

His gaze finally landed on Mysterious Ink, who was coiled on Ye Feiyan's shoulder and looked completely unremarkable!

"Little girl," he asked in a muffled voice.

"Is this Jiao your beast?"

Although Ye Feiyan was filled with confusion upon hearing this, she still nodded indifferently.

"Yes."

However, upon hearing this, Old Ancestor Huo gently shook his head.

Within those giant eyes filled with endless majesty, a trace of... pity appeared?

"Sigh..."

He let out a long sigh.

"It is merely a Black Jiao with a Fourth Tier Bloodline."

"Its Bloodline is too inferior, and its potential is limited."

"Girl," he looked at Ye Feiyan, his gaze like that of someone looking at an unpolished piece of jade.

"In my observation, your constitution is excellent, especially your Dao foundation, which is incredibly profound; you are basically one in ten thousand!"

"Such an inferior beast will only drag you down."

"Take my advice and change it."

"Only then can your future immortal path go further and higher."

Speaking of this, a rare look of arrogance appeared on his face, which was usually filled with majesty.

"Old Man Jin and I have guarded this place for thousands of years, and we were fortunate enough to leave behind an offspring."

"Its Bloodline is even more outstanding, reaching the legendary... Sixth Tier."

Boom!!!

A Sixth Tier Bloodline?!

Upon hearing these four words, the face of Shangguan Jing, which had been full of gentle smiles, instantly froze.

His incredibly deep eyes widened, and his face was filled with endless... envy.

Or even... jealousy!

A Sixth Tier Bloodline!

That is something that, as long as it doesn't die prematurely, is guaranteed to grow into a terrifying Sixth Tier Great Demon.

It is a supreme existence comparable to those legendary great powers in the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"Girl," Old Ancestor Huo's voice was filled with endless temptation, "as long as you are willing to give up this Black Jiao before you."

"I will make the decision to bestow my only offspring upon you."

"How about it!?"

Upon hearing this, Mysterious Ink almost couldn't help but roll his eyes on the spot.

Damn it!

Was this guy a pair of underpants in his past life?

Why is he so pretentious!?

However, facing this Heaven-sent blessing that would drive any Beast Taming Sect Disciple crazy, Ye Feiyan didn't even blink.

She didn't even bother to think about it.

She immediately refused flatly: "No need."

"I only want him."

How could a mere Sixth Tier Suanni Bloodline compare to Mysterious Ink's unique Primordial Black Dragon Bloodline throughout the ages!?

A Sixth Tier Bloodline isn't even worthy of carrying Mysterious Ink's shoes!

"???"

However, her crisp and decisive refusal left everyone present stunned on the spot.

Refused!?

She actually refused!?

Especially Shangguan Jing!

He stared blankly at Ye Feiyan, at that beautiful face that remained as calm as an ancient well...

His brain completely fell into a brief blank state.

Giving up a future Sixth Tier Great Demon to firmly choose a mere Black Jiao with a Fourth Tier Bloodline!?

This girl...

Is there something wrong with her brain?

"Sigh..."

Seeing Ye Feiyan's resolute attitude, Old Ancestor Huo could only sigh helplessly once more.

This child cannot be taught.

He said nothing more, and his figure, which had transformed into a human form, slowly turned back into that blue jade statue filled with an aura of endless vicissitudes.

"Let's... let's go."

Shangguan Jing finally came back to his senses from the endless shock.

He led Ye Feiyan and Mysterious Ink into the Sect treasury, which was filled with endless Opportunity.

Very quickly, Ye Feiyan obtained the item she had been desperately searching for.

...

Returning to that quiet Small Courtyard.

Ye Feiyan looked at Mysterious Ink, who was lazily coiled on the bed, and her cold phoenix eyes were filled with unprecedented... tenderness and determination.

"Mysterious Ink."

She spoke slowly, saying each word clearly.

"Don't worry."

"No matter what happens in the future."

"No matter what others say."

"I, Ye Feiyan, will never abandon you."

Hearing this heartfelt oath, Mysterious Ink found it somewhat amusing.

Silly girl.

The one who should be worried is not me.

However, he still gently nodded his large Dragon head.

It counted as a response.

Immediately, Ye Feiyan did not delay any longer.

She took a deep breath, and within those cold phoenix eyes, an unprecedented... heat and expectation ignited!

She took out the ancient Pill Furnace that had accompanied her for a long time and resolutely walked into the Cultivation Chamber that would determine her future destiny.

She was going to refine the... perfect infant transformation pill that would help her ascend to the sky in one step.

...

Time slipped away quietly in this tedious waiting.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed.

During this month, Ye Feiyan had never stepped out of the Cultivation Chamber for even a single step.

Meanwhile, Mysterious Ink stayed in the Small Courtyard every day, sunbathing and silently AFK-ing.

Life was truly leisurely and comfortable.

And that Sect-destroying war, which should have been on the verge of breaking out, seemed to have been bizarrely shelved.

Both sides were very tacitly and extremely restrained.

There were only occasional reports of both sides assassinating each other's Elite Disciples.

It seemed that neither side wanted to be the first to start a major conflict.

Another day passed.

Mysterious Ink opened his attribute panel again.

【host: Mysterious Ink】

【Race: Primordial Black Dragon (Remnant)】

【Realm: Mid Fourth Tier Stage】

【experience points required to Breakthrough to Fourth Tier Late Stage: 8,000,000 / 24,000,000】

"Eight million, huh..."

A trace of satisfied light flashed in Mysterious Ink's majestic dragon pupils.

To Breakthrough to the Fourth Tier Late Stage, which is comparable to the Late Nascent Soul Stage of the Human Race, another 16 million experience points are needed.

Currently, at three points per second, calculating the time, it will take about two more months.

It's not urgent, though.

Besides, Ye Feiyan is already refining the infant transformation pill; once she successfully refines it and achieves a Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm, this time will be shortened significantly.
