Forge your destiny into a sword, slash your soul and ascend to immortality

Chapter 7: The Three Animals Determine Fate
The so-called "Three Animals Determine Destiny Method" is a practice method in the memory of the tall and thin monk that helps monks connect with the "Life Stove", refine themselves, and enter the Tao to determine their destiny.

This method is widely spread throughout the entire [Hunzhou]. Seventy to eighty percent of the independent cultivators use this method to awaken their [destiny] and enter the Tao for practice.

Compared to the secret methods inherited from the Da Ming Island, it might lack some of the unique magical effects.

However, this "Three Animals Determination of Destiny Method" only requires the three cheapest and most basic materials containing "Life Essence" as a basis to help a person who has accumulated "White Fang Life Essence" to break through "Destiny".

It can be said to be the gospel for casual practitioners with the lowest threshold and lowest cost!

For Jing Qian at the moment, it is also the most suitable way to enter the Tao.

By absorbing the memories of the tall and thin monk, he easily comprehended this method, as if he had gone through a long period of study and practice.

He looked at his life tablet and saw the message clearly visible on it:

[Host: Jing Qian]

[Lifespan: 1/84 years]

[Life Points: 0.67] (White Fang)

【Fate: None】

He had the souls of these two monks, one tall and one short, as his food.

His [Life Essence] is growing at an unimaginable speed.

Through this magical life monument space, the [life essence] is squeezed, filtered and absorbed, and the efficiency and purity have reached a peak!
At the very least, in the memory of the tall and thin monk, he had never seen such a superb method of nourishing essence.

Of all the secret methods of nourishing essence that the other party possessed, even the most effective one could only help a mortal child, at the age of thirteen or fourteen, to accumulate enough [White Fang Life Essence].

At this time, Jing Qian's first [Life Essence] had already condensed more than half.

If he tried his best to rely on the life monument space to practice, it would only take an extra two hours at most to succeed.

If this speed of cultivation were to be spread, it would undoubtedly overturn everyone's cognition!
Just as he was about to devote himself to the new practice, changes in the external environment instantly caught his attention.

Jing Qian focused his mind on the outside world, but found that the [Green Bead] under him had an extremely disordered aura and was shaking violently!
After being nourished by the vital energy transformed from [Life Essence], Jing Qian's physical condition has improved in a short period of time.

His muscles and strength have all increased significantly.

He easily propped up his small body, broke free from the quilt that wrapped him, and walked along the back of [Qingzhuzi] all the way to its neck, carefully checking its condition.

At present, Jing Qian's survival almost entirely depends on the help of the [Green Pearl], and he cannot help but pay attention to its changes.

At the critical moment, he no longer hid himself and spoke for the first time since crossing over:

"Qingzhuzi, what's wrong with you? Do you need help?"

He knew that with Qingzhuzi's intelligence and cultivation, he was able to understand and respond to what he said!
After obtaining the cultivation common sense from the tall and thin monk, Jing Qian's understanding of the [Green Beads] has also greatly improved.

This [Soul-Weaving Demon Spider] has an extremely rare bloodline, and was refined by his grandmother to be his natal beast. Along with her years of practice, he has been well nurtured.

Just by looking at its light blue spider silk, you can tell that this spider has already reached the perfection of the [Blue Wing] level and is almost completing the promotion to the [Blue Blood] level!
In this vast world, demons and monsters roam freely. Those with unusual bloodlines are born with a [Fate], allowing them to absorb vital energy and accumulate [Fate Essence]. The various extraordinary materials produced by demons and monsters with [Fate] are the core ingredients used by human cultivators to refine [Fate].

The struggle between humans and demons and ghosts, using each other as resources for cultivation, is an eternal theme in the world of cultivation.

The grades of demons and ghosts correspond to the quality classification of [Life Essence], and are also divided into five grades: [White Fang], [Blue Wings], [Blue Blood], [Purple Eyes] and [Golden Roots].

The strength of this [Green Bead] is just enough [Green Wings] but not enough [Blue Blood].

In terms of cultivation, it is almost equivalent to the great cultivator [Dragon Elephant] who has formed the Dharma image, and its own intelligence has long been no different from that of ordinary humans.

After hearing Jing Qian's question, [Qingzhuzi] forced himself to send a magical power towards him.

In an instant, Jing Qian's mind was pulled into an illusion.

In this magical illusion, he relived the battle with Fu Ying and Wu Li from Jing Su's perspective.

The decisive battle between the two great masters will determine life and death in a flash!
The successive deaths of the two [Dragon Elephant] monks made Jing Qian deeply feel the cruelty of the world of cultivation.

He also instantly understood the reason behind the change in the status of the [Green Bead].

The death of a cultivator, under the influence of the contract, will inevitably greatly weaken the soul of the beast tamer and damage his body.

At the moment Jing Su fell, the [Green Pearl] immediately suffered a huge backlash, and his soul was severely damaged.

For most demons and ghosts, they are stronger in the body but weaker in the soul, and the [Green Bead] is no exception.

The damage to its soul and spirit it had suffered could not be repaired by itself.

Without precious medicine to treat it, its cultivation and lifespan will only be gradually weakened by the damage to its soul until death.

But in this vast ocean, where could Jing Qian get the precious medicine to heal Qingzhuzi's injuries?
Jing Qian watched the [Green Bead] under his feet struggling constantly due to the pain, and for a moment, he was helpless!
Without the care of the [Green Pearl], how else would he survive except sinking to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish?
What's more, it has already sensed from the magic power transmitted by the [Green Pearl] that there is clearly a powerful enemy, carrying the corpse of its grandmother, chasing after it!

The reality made Jing Qian's heart tighten, and a strong sense of crisis made his hair stand on end.

Under this situation, his life and that of [Qingzhuzi] are hanging by a thread!

Jing Qian spoke again:
"[Qingzhuzi], if I can gather one [White Fang Life Essence] and the three animals, can you protect me and help me enter the Dao?"

Upon hearing this, [Qingzhuzi] couldn't help but turn around and look at him carefully even though he was seriously injured.

Jing Qian only saw eight huge emerald-like compound eyes, which looked him over carefully, staring at him so intently that he felt a chill all over his body.

Then [Qingzhuzi] opened its huge mouth and spit out two pieces of flesh and blood covered with sticky gastric juice in front of him.

Jing Qian looked carefully and saw that they were two right hands, one thick and short, and one thin and long.

It was the remains of the two monks who had been completely devoured by the [Green Pearl] not long ago!
Then, it cut off a small piece from its own blue spider silk and threw it in front of Jing Qian.

These three magical items all contain the materials of [Life Essence], which just make up the three animals needed for Jing Qian's destiny!
The request he made was satisfied by [Qingzhuzi] in the blink of an eye!
Jing Qian no longer hesitated, nodded at the other party, then lay down straight and entered the life monument space again.

This time, under the pressure of life and death crisis, he will never escape until he has collected a complete [Life Essence]!
