nWang Hu watched for a long while. This silly girl must have something important to do.
n
n
nWith her arrogance, letting him take charge of the food for the next few days definitely did not mean she forgave and accepted him.
n
n
nThat meant that she could not come out to hunt in those few days.
n
n
nHe didn’t know the specific reason, but during the period he was in charge of hunting, there would be no need to worry about safety.
n
n
nHe consciously glanced at the number on the Map of the Universe and felt more at ease after thinking for a while.
n
n
nThere was still about a little more than ten days to reach 1, and there should be some changes by then, depending on the situation.
n
n
nHe made up his mind and started training in this open space.
n
n
nWhile he did not have time to cultivate during the half-month of looking for ten tigers, he was constantly trying to figure out this cultivation method in his free time and even on the way.
n
n
nThe nine movements and their corresponding breathing methods were already second nature to him.
n
n
nWhile the first movement—every time the feeling on his body became unbearable, he would change to the second movement.
n
n
nThese nine movements were to temper the whole body.
n
n
nThe cultivation method suitable for tigers, coupled with some other information, also made Wang Hu guess the true identity of the silly girl’s previous life.
n
n
nPerhaps she was not human even in her previous life.
n
n
nOf course, all these were not important now. The most important thing was strength.
n
n
nThe drizzle of spiritual power began to enter his body, and the powerful feeling appeared again.
n
n
n…
n
n
nIn the cave…
n
n
nDi Baijun got Big Treasure and Little Treasure to play on their own while she looked at the tiger blood on the stone platform with solemn eyes, sighing silently.
n
n
nShe could only do this.
n
n
nIn her eyes, a white light suddenly appeared, and in the light seemed to be a small but lifelike white tiger.
n
n
nDomineering, noble, as if standing on the top of the world, looking down on all lifeforms…
n
n
nIn the next moment, the white tiger raised her head to the sky and roared, expressing a sense of pain.
n
n
nImmediately after, a white light rose from her body and turned into an illusory white tiger figure, rushing into the tiger’s blood on the stone platform.
n
n
nThe white tiger shrank visibly, and the light dimmed. As if she had suffered a severe injury, Di Baijun laid down directly. As if unable to support herself, her eyes looked exhausted.
n
n
nHowever, she held on and looked at the tiger blood on the stone platform.
n
n
nThe originally calm tiger blood immediately began to boil after the illusory white tiger figure rushed in.
n
n
nRoar~!
n
n
nA tiger roar sounded faintly like the roar of ten tigers, expressing the meaning of surrender and pain.
n
n
nIn the blink of an eye, those tiger roars disappeared, leaving only a roar that dominated the world, and the ghost of the white tiger appeared on the tiger’s blood.
n
n
nThat was not very loud; it was extremely shocking to the core.
n
n
nBig Treasure and Little Treasure seemed to have encountered their mortal enemy and ran fearfully to Di Baijun.
n
n
nOutside the cave, Wang Hu—who had only heard some sounds—felt like something bored through his heart, like he was suppressed and forced into submission.
n
n
nHe grew shocked, stopping his cultivation and looking closely into the cave.
n
n
nWhat did the silly girl do?
n
n
nIn the cave, after nine roars, the white tiger ghost fell into the tiger’s blood, and everything calmed down.
n
n
nAt this time, the tiger’s blood had turned milky white, with much lesser volume a strange fragrance permeating into the air.
n
n
nThe two little guys—who were so afraid—seemed to have smelt some peerless delicacy, looking at the stone platform with fear and curiosity.
n
n
nAwooo~!
n
n
n…
n
n
nThey howled continuously, looking at Di Baijun.
n
n
nDi Baijun looked at the two little guys, couldn’t help but smile with a flash of gentleness.
n
n
nRoar~!
n
n
n“Go and eat it then.”
n
n
nThe soft, encouraging roar calmed the two little guys.
n
n
nRoar~!
n
n
n“Go quickly now.”
n
n
nDi Baijun glanced out of the hole and roared again.
n
n
nOnly then did the two little guys muster up the courage, follow their instincts, run to the edge of the stone platform, and drink the milky tiger blood.
n
n
nThe more they drank, the more excited they became as if it was the most delicious thing in the world. Soon, there was nothing left.
n
n
nDi Baijun braved her exhaustion, staring in the direction outside the cave and watching them finish drinking, and breathed a sigh of relief.
n
n
nThe thing she was most worried about did not happen. The bastard did not follow his instinct to snatch it, saving a lot of effort.
n
n
nThe look of expectation floated as she turned to the little guys.
n
n
nSeeing them licking everything in the stone platform, raising their heads reluctantly yet extremely cutely, and running to her excitedly.
n
n
nHowever, it did not take many steps before they seemed to be drunk, dizzy, and unstable. They finally stumbled directly to the ground and fell asleep.
n
n
nWhite light radiated from their bodies with their breathing, which was very mysterious.
n
n
nOnly then was Di Baijun really relieved. It was a success!
n
n
nShe had never used this method, but she could see with her naked eyes that these two little guys were undergoing an ongoing transformation.
n
n
nShe was not so sure of the extent to which they could be transformed and the kind of bloodline upon awakening.
n
n
nHowever, it would definitely not be weak since it was based on the origin of her soul.
n
n
nWith her remaining strength, she brought the two little guys back. Di Baijun could no longer hold it up, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.
n
n
nThe cave was quiet, and Wang Hu was even more curious outside the cave. He nearly couldn’t suppress his curiosity.
n
n
nThat fresh fragrance from just now almost made him rush in directly. The attraction that seemed to come from within nearly overwhelmed his reasoning.
n
n
nHowever, it was lucky that he managed to suppress it.
n
n
nNo matter what, his wife and his children were inside. He could not rush in to snatch whatever good stuff it was.
n
n
nAfter enduring it for a while, the fragrance disappeared, and he was left only with silence.
n
n
nHe suppressed his curiosity, calmed down, and continued to cultivate.
n
n
nAfter practicing all nine movements, he lied down and slept. He was really tired out these few days.
n
n
nWhen night fell, Wang Hu woke up and started hunting.
n
n
nA few hours later, he returned to the cave with a deer weighing more than 250 kilograms and began to eat. When he was full, he left the venison there for the silly girl, Big Treasure, and Little Treasure; and he began to practice.
n
n
nTwo or three hours later, he frowned and looked at the cave.
n
n
nThe silly girl, Big Treasure, and Little Treasure had not emerged up to now, obviously abnormal.
n
n
nHe waited patiently again until the day was about to break and was about to go in to take a look when the silly girl walked out.
n
n
nThere were unbearable fatigue and weakness in his eyes.
n
n
nShe didn’t say much and began to eat the venison.
n
n
nShe roared coldly after eating.
n
n
nRoar~!
n
n
n“They are now in a critical time; do not disturb them.”
n
n
nShe walked back into the cave after she was done with it.
n
n
nWang Hu continued to cultivate after being more at ease.
n
n
nIn the cave, Di Baijun continued to sleep, seeing the two little guys were still the same and everything was normal.
n
n
nHer soul origin was consumed, and it was extremely serious for her who was already weak at this time.
n
n
nIn addition, there was no other way to recover. She could only rely on sleep and time to slowly pass this period of weakness.
n
n
nShe didn’t want to use this kind of damaging method, but there was no other way.
n
n
nAn ordinary tiger would reach adulthood in no time, about three years.
n
n
nIf she waited until that time for them to be awakened, their potential would be greatly reduced so she could only do this.
n
n
nThe cave was quiet again, only with the sound of sleepy breathing.
n
n
nAn hour later, at the corner of the cave, a behemoth creature approached cautiously, stretching out his head to take a peek.
n
n
nThe sleeping silly girl, Big Treasure, and Little Treasure were fine. He knew instinctively that the white light was not simple. They must have benefited greatly.
n
n
nHe was satisfied. This tiger lady did have a conscience. She did well.
n
n
nIt was all thanks to him letting her do her own way all the time.
n
n
nHe withdrew with content after a few more glances.
n
n
nThat was naturally Wang Hu. No matter what, he was uneasy without seeing it with his own eyes.
n
n
nHe mustered all his courage to sneak into the cave.
n
n
nThe result was good so he was in a good mood and continued to cultivate.
n
n
nIt was the same for the next few days. Wang Hu hunted and cultivated, the silly girl came out to eat almost once a day, but Big Treasure and Little Treasure were still sleeping.
n
n
nFrom time to time, Wang Hu sneaked into the cave to take a look. A few days later, he frowned.
n
n
nThat was because the time required for hunting increased.
n
n
nIt was not the problem with his strength, but as he cultivated, his appetite grew—which was still increasing. The same went for the silly girl’s appetite.
n
n
nThose 200 kilograms of food a day was not enough.
n
n
nThe animals in the mountains were much larger due to the spiritual power nourishment. He had to travel farther to hunt and spend more time since the nearby animals were depleted.
n
n
nIgnoring that, there was one more point that made him frown.
n
n
nHis appetite was getting bigger and bigger, but the newborn animals had not experienced spiritual power nourishment.
n
n
nEven during the spiritual power nourishment, those that were not adults did not grow much bigger.
n
n
nHe wanted the animals in the mountains to really grow up. They could only grow with time without cultivation.
n
n
nMoreover, the time would be very long. With the growth rate of his appetite, he was afraid that one day—no, very soon, there would not be enough food for him.
n
n
nAfter understanding that, he once again deeply realized the importance of the environment for cultivation.
n
n
nThe current situation was that both the silly girl and his strength had increased too fast—along with their ever-growing demand for food, and the environmental changes in his territory could not keep up with their speed.
n
n
nHis only way was to increase his territory.
n
n
nHowever, even if his territory was enlarged, he could foresee that this problem would only be solved for a while. Unless his territory was constantly enlarged, changing caves and using up more resources would support him.
n
n
nElse, his cultivation speed had to slow down to match the speed of the environment changes.
n
n
nWang Hu understood in his heart that the time for the awakening of spiritual power was still too short, and this mountain forest did not have enough preparation to let a real strong one rise.
n
n
nIt was time to prepare for the expansion of his territory and the change of caves.
n
n
nOf course, although still frowning in this regard, Wang Hu was more excited.
n
n
nAll this showed that he was becoming stronger at a very fast pace.
n
n
nHe obtained the cultivation method for about 20 days, but he did not practice well in the first ten days.
n
n
nHowever, his body was one size bigger again, with a shoulder height of about 1.67 meters. This increase was even more amazing than the height of the shoulders from 1.2 meters to 1.3 meters in ten days.
n
n
nHe was shocked when he realized it, which was why he delved so much into the availability of food.
n
