The 27th Section of Copper Bells, Demon Crystal

  At once, Chu Yun told Lao Hong Qiang the detailed configuration method of the formula and solemnly instructed him to keep it strictly confidential.

  Old Honggun patted his chest and guaranteed it. He had some slight expectations in his heart, but they weren't high.

  He had long been convinced of Chu Yun's potential, but now Chu Yun was only a 13-year-old boy after all. The matter of the Biyu Sea had already tried many methods. The salt field owners on Shu Family Island were all worried about this strange disease. Could it be that Chu Yun's casual mention of a formula was actually the root cure?

  Unrealistic.

  However, Lao Hongqiang still decided to give it a try. Chu Yun's serious expression made him feel that things might have taken a turn for the better.

  After finishing this matter, Chu Yun turned to Qiao Lao Hou Zi again.

  "Grandfather Qiao, from now on you will carefully collect the bronze bell on this coconut tree. It will be of great use in the future."

  "Bronze bell?" Old Monkey Jiang was taken aback.

  Each copper bell coconut tree, when it's harvest season, bears 3 nata de coco fruits and 15 copper bell fruits. Only the nata de coco fruit has commercial value, while the copper bell fruit is given to children as a toy, neither party necessarily wants them.

  Things that have been played with until they're boring.

  Old Monkey King often fantasized that if the bronze bell fruit were replaced with coconut milk fruit, it would be great!

  Chu Yun suddenly spoke up, wanting to collect these useless copper bells. What did she want to do?

  "As for the specifics, Old Qiao, don't ask. The time isn't right, forgive me for keeping it a secret." Chu Yun promptly blocked off Old Qiao's questioning.

  "Alright, collecting copper bells isn't a big deal. I'll do it for you, old man." Old Monkey Jiang smiled, and among the three elders, he was the one who spoiled Chu Yun the most.

  Chu Yun's behavior, in their view, was equivalent to fooling around. However, Old Qiao the monkey was willing to accompany Chu Yun in fooling around.

  Chu Yun smiled and didn't say anything more.

  The fruit of the copper bell, with a hard exterior, is as big as an infant's head. When shaken, it makes a sound similar to that of a copper bell. What's special about this fruit is that they can respond to each other.

  Shaking a fruit, the bell rings. The copper bell fruit not far away, even if it is still, will also ring the bell. It's indeed a more playful toy.

  This toy is passed from hand to hand among children in the Starry Island Group. Walking near coconut groves, it can be seen everywhere, and wherever you look, there are many.

  But in Chu Yun's memory, within three years, this toy became a strictly controlled military product that was forbidden to be leaked out and was subject to strict management.

  It was all because of a strange person who came up with a brilliant idea, using the copper bell fruit to create a powerful breed - Copper Bell Elite Soldier!

  The specific method to produce such elite soldiers was also in Chu Yun's mind. However, it involved many key points and now is not the time. Informing Old Monkey Qiao, he was preparing first. When the time comes to use them, it will be more convenient.

  The scorching sun hangs in the sky, and the blue sky is dazzling. The hot light arrows penetrate the forest, and the trees and grass shrink their branches and leaves, and even the sand and stones seem to be gasping for breath.

  The scorching sunlight in the afternoon is unbearable. People seem to be roasted in a furnace, and there are few people on Shu Family Island who come out to exercise.

  Under such weather, Chu Yun still gritted her teeth and brought Tian Hu to the forest on the island for ascetic practice.

  "Entering Tian Ge Shu Yuan has already become an inevitable fact. However, I must not slack off, as Shu Da and Shu Er are just minor characters, while the truly talented and outstanding individuals in this world are numerous. Compared to them, my current foundation is still quite shallow. I must take advantage of being one step ahead to expand my lead."

  Chu Yun felt the weight of his responsibilities and the distance he had to travel. After being reborn with memories of his past life, he had a huge advantage. However, this advantage was intangible. Without turning memories into actual abilities, no matter how many years of memories one had, they were ultimately just fleeting clouds.

  Shu Jia Island is just a starting point, and the Tian Ge Academy is where one takes their first steps, laying down practical foundations. As for the future, the vast expanse of heaven and earth awaits, with talented and handsome individuals shining like stars, and powerful opponents waiting to challenge oneself.

  The cultivation of a great wizard is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you retreat.

  How can one prove the ultimate peak of the Tao without striving for superiority?

  Chu Yun was only 13 years old, but although he was living on a remote island in the Shu family's territory, his heart was set on conquering the entire world, and his ambition grew bigger by the day.

  That's great.

  There is no man without ambition.

  Man, born to be a hero, riding across the world, raising his fist, looking around in all directions, who dares to compete with me!

  Ambition is absolutely attractive to men. Women may never understand that the yearning for success and achievement is a heroic passion that all men have in their bones.

  Compared with the mighty passion surging in Chu Yun's heart, what is a mere flame?

  The Celestial Fox sensed its master's will to fight and was also filled with vigor and ambition.

  One man and one fox entered the forest and began their ascetic practice.

  "Squeak——!" A sharp cry suddenly rang out, almost piercing the eardrum.

  Chu Yun took a step back, raised her head and gazed intently. All she saw was a grey-clawed monkey on the thick and dense tree branches above, baring its teeth and brandishing its claws at her while letting out a menacing roar.

  Chu Yun and Tian Hu were trespassing on its territory, their roars full of heavy warning.

  Chu Yun smiled slightly, and at a glance, he saw that this was a 13-year-old cultivator of the Lihou Monkey, just suitable as an opponent.

  Wild monsters also have their own survival rules.

  Generally speaking, unless it is a group-type of monster, each monster occupies a certain range and forms its own territory.

  If it's a weak and small enemy invading their territory, they won't hesitate and will immediately attack.

  If it is an enemy of equal strength that has invaded its territory, it will make threatening moves to warn them and try to avoid a fight.

  If they are powerful enemies who have formed a hierarchical suppression and invaded the territory of the demon beasts, they will know that they are no match for them and will flee in disarray.

  The monster is not stupid, it also knows how to retreat, knows how to show its power, and knows how to launch a sneak attack. Therefore, hunting wild monsters in the wilderness also carries great risks, which involves many lessons.

  For an ordinary new demon master, this would be a difficult and trying baptism. But for Chu Yun, the memories of his past life allowed him to skip the novice period and become an experienced senior demon master. He could judge what kind of demon beast was in this territory based on subtle clues, even its level of cultivation.

  This enables him to avoid strong and strike weak, find the most suitable target for his own bitter cultivation.

  The sharp-clawed monkey in front of him was one of the results of his careful planning.

  "Little Dan Fire, shoot!" He gave an order as soon as he opened his mouth.

  The heavenly fox had long been building up its strength, and upon hearing the command, it immediately opened its mouth and spat out a tangerine-colored fireball.

  The lemur dodged aside just in time, the fireball hit the large tree behind it, immediately causing a miniature explosion, and flames began to burn on the trunk.

  "Fire the next shot." Chu Yun's face was expressionless, calm to the extreme.

  Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

  Three small dan fireballs, one after another, tore through space, forming a pinwheel shape, and swooped down towards the Li Claw Monkey's cage.

  The Lizard Monkey's expression changed as it panicked and struggled in mid-air, dodging two small dan fireballs before being hit by a third.

  "It's now, use the Great Dan Fire!" Chu Yun's eyes lit up, his rich combat experience allowing him to issue the most correct and wise command at the right time.

  The heavenly fox held its breath for half a moment, and then spat out a dan fire bead. The small dan fire bead was only the size of a fist, but this dan fire bead was as big as an infant's head.

  This is the Great Dan Fire, its power is 5 times that of the Small Dan Fire!

  Boom.

  A faint humming noise, the Great Flame hit the Lizard Monkey accurately. The Lizard Monkey let out a mournful cry and was blown to death on the spot. The fierce flames burned fiercely, gradually burning it to ashes.

  After five breaths, only a piece of demon crystal was left on the ground.

  Yaojing, like a faintly transparent crystal body. It is the residual essence of a dead yao beast, including the essence of its body, soul, and spirit, condensed into a thing.

  Any demon beast that dies will condense into a demon crystal. The more essence left behind by the demon beast before it dies, the larger the demon crystal will be.

  In his past life in the Starry Sea Dragon Palace, after the Azure Dragon died, the condensed demon crystal was as large as a millstone. When Chuyun Du regained it, he could hardly lift it.

  Now, after exterminating the Li Zhuo Hou, Chu Yun only got a single grain of yellow bean-sized demon crystal.

  The demon crystal was small, but it was within Chu Yun's expectations. A 13-year-old demonic beast could only have a demon crystal of that size. However, for a 10-year-old heavenly fox like herself, it was extremely precious.

  She tossed the crystal to the Celestial Fox, who let out a delighted cry, wrinkled her cute little nose and leaned in close to inhale it eagerly.

  A visible stream of essence was absorbed into the body by Tian Hu, while the demon crystal became increasingly faint and disappeared in the blink of an eye between heaven and earth.

  Looking back, Tian Huo gained the benefits of the demon crystal and his cultivation immediately jumped from 10 years to 12 years. He was also lucky enough to obtain a Dao method that Lishi Hou had comprehended on his own before he died.

  Blood Magic.

  The Bloodthirsty Dao is a dao that benefits the demon beasts like Lizi, and it's usually something they can comprehend. Chu Yun wasn't surprised, nodded slightly, but ordered Tian Hu to abandon this dao.

  Even humans, who are known as the spirits of all things, rarely learn everything comprehensively. Energy is limited, and once it's dispersed, having too many pursuits often leads to accomplishing nothing.

  It is said that greed will lead to trouble. Moreover, the spiritual light of a demon beast is extremely limited and cannot compare with humans. The number of Taoist methods it can learn is also limited.

  Even if the Celestial Fox has plenty of spiritual energy and is highly perceptive, it's still a demonic beast after all. Chu Yun estimated that at most, a minor demon-level Celestial Fox could cultivate 9 types of Daoist techniques.

  That's enough already.

  Ordinary demonic beasts, at the level of small demons, have already reached their limit after cultivating 4-5 kinds of Taoist methods.

  The Celestial Fox is already twice as strong as them, this is the quality of a true masterpiece!

  Therefore, how to choose Taoist methods has become one of the important contents of cultivating demonic beasts. The combination of Taoist methods will also make the demonic beast go on different routes.

  Many attacking Taoist methods are inclined towards attacking-type demon beasts. Many defensive Taoist methods are inclined towards defensive-type demon beasts. Many auxiliary Taoist methods are inclined towards auxiliary demon beasts.

  Choosing what kind of Taoist methods to use, the combination of Taoist methods, and the test is not only the depth of understanding of the demon master for his own demon beast, but also the adaptability to specific situations.

  As for what kind of demon beast Tian Hu would be cultivated into, Chu Yun had already made up his mind.
