Chapter 40: Recovery of Strength

  Guo Fei used the space of the military symbol to test it, to see if he could put the little fox in. If he could put it in, then he wouldn't have to waste his own time. The result of the experiment was that the space of the military symbol had no movement at all, apparently it couldn't hold living things.

  "Since the corpse can be taken in, why can't this? Is it necessary to transform into a soldier that is owned by the space of the symbol, in order to take it in?" Guo Fei thought for a moment, recalling how he had once tried to take his own physical body inside, but failed. He realized that only his spiritual consciousness could enter, and as the master of the symbol, the symbol was born from his own divine consciousness, so there must be some unknown restrictions that prevented him from entering.

  Can't put the little fox into the soldier symbol space, have to let her become her own soldier type to experiment with her own guesses, but it seems that no soldier type is suitable for her, and the soldier symbol space has no reaction. Guo Fei gave up.

  "How long will it take for you to recover from your injuries?" Guo Fei asked, glancing at the festering wound. He was anxious to leave and spoke urgently.

  "If there's medicine, let's hurry up, but to recover my strength, I'll have a chance to escape!" The little fox wasn't stupid, and with one glance at Guo Fei, she immediately caught on, implying that if she didn't recover her strength, he shouldn't abandon her.

  "Grandma's, good intentions have been taken advantage of." Guo Fei smiled to himself and asked again, "How long will it take to recover your strength?"

  "If I had a Soul Crystal to swallow, I'd recover quickly." The little fox gazed at the pouch on Guo Fei's waist and said in a soft voice. The sweet and pitiful tone made Guo Fei unable to refuse.

  "Sly fox!" It seems that this sentence is not false at all. Guo Fei understood, but hearing such a "heart-wrenching" phrase, he couldn't help but have his heart shaken, and Guo Fei really wanted to know how the demon clan cultivated, nodding involuntarily.

  Guo Fei took the little fox and found a cave, where she recovered her strength.

  "I'm curious, how can your demon clan possibly swallow the soul crystal, a spiritual stone that has condensed its energy into a solid state, with such immense energy, without harming your body? I've heard that humans must use 'yuan' to convert it into yuanqi." Guo Fei looked at the small fox, which was gazing pitifully at the bag on his waist, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

  "Our demon clan is different from your human clan, we cultivate for countless years, using the essence of heaven and earth, day and night to slowly transform our bodies. Our blood and flesh are transformed into extraordinary strength, and our blood contains yuan energy that matches our own attributes. Therefore, our body can directly absorb the energy in the spirit stone, convert its yuan energy into our own yuan force, absorb and store it in our blood."

  Humans hunt and kill demonic beasts, extract their blood, which is equivalent to extracting yuanqi, and make talismans. I heard from my father that many human cultivators cannot use the yuanqi in spirit stones themselves, so they raise demonic beasts, feed them spirit stones, and then take their blood to make talismans.

  "So that's how it is. Your demon clan has a unique condition, you should be exceptionally powerful, why are you so weak?" Guo Fei asked in surprise.

  "Young master, you don't understand. Compared to your human race, we have too many disadvantages. Especially for small beasts like us. Your human race is born with great spiritual intelligence and unblocked meridians. We have low spiritual intelligence, and after countless years of ignorance, we can only embark on the path of cultivation by chance; The meridians of beasts are severely blocked, and only when the energy of the sun and moon in our blood is exceptionally abundant can we release a portion of our true qi to help us break through and unblock our meridians. In the long years of cultivation, it's just a process of slowly breaking through our meridians, which is extremely difficult. The human body is most suitable for cultivation, so we strive to break through our meridians and transform into a human body, only then will our cultivation speed up. Moreover, the parts of our body where our meridians are unblocked can be transformed."

  The mainland's cultivation resources are mostly occupied by your human race and the powerful demon race, making it quite difficult for us lowly beasts to cultivate. Our white fox family was able to embark on the path of cultivation entirely thanks to my grandfather, who coincidentally consumed a thousand-year-old He Shou Wu plant, greatly enhancing his spiritual intelligence. Under his guidance, my grandmother also began her cultivation journey.

  When my grandfather was about to become a human, he was attacked by a demon-level dragon and swallowed alive. My grandmother took my father, who had not yet opened his spiritual wisdom, and escaped. With her help, my father's spiritual wisdom opened up, and he embarked on the path of cultivation. Later, while searching for food, my grandmother was captured by human demon hunters and never seen again.

  "My father and mother took us to escape into the Wan Ku Mountain, where we hid in a secret place to cultivate our skills. However, my younger brother didn't listen and took my sister out of the mountain to play, but they were caught by demon hunters. They used this as bait and surrounded our whole family. My father was seriously injured while escaping with his life, I was captured alive, and my mother, younger brother, and sister all died." The little fox said in a low sobbing voice.

  "Alas, it seems that not only among humans, but also among the demon clans, there is such a brutal and bloody struggle for survival. The path of cultivation is indeed a matter of survival of the fittest." Guo Fei sighed.

  "The young master is right. There are more wild beasts in the world than humans, but among the 100,000 who have opened their spiritual intelligence and entered the ranks of demonic beasts, not even one can be found. After that, they still need to go through a long process of clearing their meridians, and then cultivate a demon core, using the demon core to refine a powerful beast soul, with each round of elimination, those who enter the extremely high realm are even fewer."

  Only the powerful demon tribes, under the care of their elders, can make rapid progress. As for me, if I can awaken my spiritual wisdom in this life and experience human emotions, then I will be content even in death." These words spoken by the little fox made Guo Fei feel a deep sense of sorrow, realizing that not only humans but also demons had social hierarchies.

  "Here! Eat!" Guo Fei heard the little fox's words and, to his surprise, felt a sense of sympathy for their shared fate. Without hesitation, he handed over a bag of soul crystals.

  "Thank you, young master. If I successfully cultivate, I am willing to become your demon pet!" The little fox thanked him and swallowed Guo Fei's soul crystal without hesitation. Then it lay on the ground with its eyes closed, cultivating.

  Guo Fei couldn't leave at this time when she was weak. Even an ordinary person could capture her now.

  Kuo Fei took out three flying knives and began to practice his "knife skills". Although relying on the ninja's innate talent, Kuo Fei's flying knife techniques were already quite impressive, but he knew that summarizing a true "knife technique" would take him to a higher level, otherwise he would never be able to enter the realm of elegance.

  Just like a swordsman, although there is a sword edge, without Wen Shu's sword moves, it can also reach the low-level level of being handy. Although creating a set of flying knife techniques is difficult, Guo Fei still understands the principle that practice makes perfect.

  In three days, Guo Fei's soul crystal was almost eaten by the little fox, leaving only five fist-sized ones from the larger dead spirits. There were also skull crystals in the bag that Jin Datong had given to Guo Fei, which Guo Fei naturally couldn't use - these were reserved for Jin Datong's descendants, and Guo Fei was determined to hand them over to his heirs.

  The little fox absorbed so many soul crystals, undergoing a mysterious transformation. The pure white fur of the fox became even brighter, finally starting to emit clusters of mist, wrapping itself up like a cocoon.

  On the fourth night, the mist gradually dispersed, and Guo Fei was shocked to the point of almost falling to the ground.

  A beautiful young girl is lying on the ground, her head buried in her body, half-kneeling, with her buttocks raised high. Her skin is as smooth as jade and as delicate as a lotus leaf, with a subtle sheen to it. Her shoulders are slender, her waist is narrow, and her entire body seems to be swaying gently, like a willow tree in the breeze. A big, fluffy white tail covers her private parts, and it keeps wagging back and forth.

  This scene made Guo Fei's nose almost bleed, even though he had seen many "small movies" in his previous life and had a strong self-control. At this moment, he was also stunned. This is the real human-beast combination body, shocking him countless times more than those fake scenes in his previous life.

  "Master, can you find a dress for me?" A soft and gentle voice woke up Guo Fei, who felt a bit embarrassed. He searched through his storage space and found a few pieces of clothing, but they were all men's clothes. They would have to make do.

  "Master, please turn your head away and let me put on my clothes!" Upon hearing the little fox's words, Guo Fei reluctantly turned his head away.

  The little fox quickly put on its clothes.

  "Thank you, young master. Not only has my strength fully recovered, but I also feel a slight improvement, and more of my meridians have been opened up." The little fox walked in front of Guo Fei and bowed graciously.

  Kuang Fei couldn't help but stare, his face still bearing beastly features, a pointed mouth, fluffy ears, and one-third of his face covered in white fur. What a terrible sight.

  "Huh!" Guo Fei suddenly froze, at this moment, a burst of light suddenly came from the dance hall in the military symbol space.

  "Could this little fox spirit actually transform into a dancing girl?" Guo Fei thought to himself with a surge of excitement.
