Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 169 The Little Fox's First Evolution
Liu Gu stood there, stunned. He thought of Bai Ling, and then of many other things. Finally, he spoke:
"She can't even fly a kite steadily, yet she wants to hold the fate of a country in her hands. Isn't that ridiculous?"

“It seems you don’t understand the position of Imperial Advisor enough,” Zhu Tong said. “Gu Wei once said before his death that the best Imperial Advisor is not appointed by man, but by Heaven.”

"Destiny?"

Liu Gu pondered for a moment, seemingly understanding something.

Gu Wei was just an unknown soldier on the battlefield back then, but if it weren't for him, there would be no Cangling Ancient Kingdom today.

"There's no need to worry too much about the future," Zhu Tong said. "Just let time take its course."

"I understand," Liu Gu nodded.

As dawn approached, Liu Gu saw Bai Ling return. She came to Liu Gu's side in a panic and said, "Teacher, I don't know if I've damaged the Path to Immortality."

"Oh?" Liu Gu pretended not to know and asked, "What is it?"

"That's how it is," Bai Ling explained.

"Didn't you see the illusion when you ascended the path to immortality?"

“Absolutely not.” Bai Ling shook her head.

Upon hearing this, Liu Gu said, "I told you long ago that you are not suited for combat. Look at Lin Chen, all he encountered inside were humanoid demonic beasts. All your spirit beasts combined are no match for a single bull horn from Xiao Bai."

“That seems to be true.” Bai Ling wasn’t stupid. She asked, “Isn’t it said that everyone is equal on the path to immortality?”

"It's also possible that it malfunctioned tonight," Liu Gu said.

“Then I’ll try again during the day, when there will be more people there,” Bai Ling said.

Upon hearing this, Liu Gu immediately said, "No, your top priority right now is to upgrade the Red Velvet Chicken to level 20. I have already prepared your evolution materials."

"I understand, teacher." Bai Ling was obedient.

Liu Gu thought for a moment and knew that Bai Ling would definitely try again, but he didn't want Bai Ling to be exposed to Tian Du's view too early.

Thinking of this, he simply said, "Bai Ling, do you believe your teacher?"

“Of course.” Bai Ling looked at Liu Gu’s serious expression and added, “My teacher treats me like my parents, so of course I trust him.”

"Alright then," Liu Gu said, "From now on, you don't need to go to that path to immortality."

Bai Ling was taken aback. She vaguely sensed something, but she didn't ask any further questions. Instead, she said:

"is teacher."

Seven days later, Lin Chen observed the little fox's condition and finally decided to start its evolution. Now, there are only thirteen days left before the opening of the Immortal Beast Spirit Spring's secret realm.

He arrived at the mentor's academy and found that Bai Ling's Red Velvet Chicken had also reached level 18.

Liu Gu also checked on the little fox's condition and was very satisfied.

He had been observing Lin Chen's spirit beasts all along and discovered that Lin Chen indeed had a unique ability in cultivating spirit beasts.

Although the little fox levels up quickly, it also has a solid foundation.

Liu Gu took out the evolution medicine for the little fox and placed it there. Lin Chen watched from the side, swallowing hard.
Even excluding the Phoenix Essence Blood, these items are worth over 20 million.

What is this concept?
Lin Chen never imagined that one day he would spend so much money to help spirit beasts evolve.

But fortunately
These were all taken from the Spirit Institute; it didn't cost a single penny.

"The academy has approved your application. Once it has finished evolving in peace, you can go in."

"it is good."

"And let me remind you of something," Liu Gu said, picking up the Phoenix Essence Blood. "Phoenix Essence Blood is a legendary material. It's even more difficult to digest. You need a Catalyst present to use it, otherwise, problems can easily arise."

Lin Chen was taken aback; these books really didn't record it.

Liu Gu was reminding him that he should be cautious when dealing with legendary main materials in the future.

"I understand, teacher." Lin Chen nodded.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Gu started boiling water and threw all the auxiliary ingredients into it, but he didn't add the phoenix essence blood.

"There's only half a drop, so we need to soak all the herbs completely."

Liu Gu explained as he worked with the medicinal herbs.

Although Lin Chen was certain he would never become a Catalyst, he was still interested in these things.

When you enter society, it's always good to know more. After the water boiled and the herbs had been soaking for eight hours, Liu Gu finally felt it was ready. He said to the little fox, "It will definitely hurt, but you have to persevere."

The effects of phoenix blood essence are very good, after all, the phoenix represents rebirth from the ashes.

At this moment, Liu Gu began to summon spirit beasts: a goldfish and a trumpet flower.

"Go inside," Liu Gu said to the little fox.

The little fox was timid. It had witnessed Little White spend more than a month in its cocoon, so its gaze was somewhat unfocused.

Lin Chen naturally knew what it was thinking. He picked up the little fox and said, "Didn't you want to become stronger?"

"Only when you become stronger can you protect the three of us."

The little fox glanced back at Little White and the big polar bear, and both of them let out a shout in encouragement.

“We will all stay by your side,” Lin Chen added, “just like we did with Xiaobai last time.”

"Gu!!"

Hearing this, the little fox finally felt relieved.

These days, it feels uneasy if it doesn't see Lin Chen and the others for even a day.

It came to the medicine vat and plunged in.

Upon seeing this, Liu Gu immediately began to unleash his skills.

Two beams of light, one blue and one green, enveloped the medicine jar. Liu Gu clenched his fists, actually able to control the skills of the spirit beast in his hands.
Lin Chen was taken aback, but immediately understood.

Liu Gu's talent is a rare fusion of human and beast.

No wonder he was able to become a mentor at the Spirit Academy.

Under Liu Gu's manipulation, the entire medicine vat was enveloped in light. Only then did Liu Gu take out the Phoenix Essence Blood, flick it with his finger, and let it enter the medicine vat.

As soon as the phoenix essence blood entered the medicine vat, the temperature in the room suddenly rose.

Immediately afterwards, with a loud bang, the medicine vat exploded, sending fragments flying everywhere.

Lin Chen was startled and asked worriedly, "Teacher, this..."

“Normal.” Liu Gu’s hands remained clenched as he spoke: “No medicine vat can withstand the explosive power of the phoenix’s essence blood, unless it is a divine-grade medicine vat.”

Lin Chen swallowed his saliva.
Divine-grade medicine vats are generally used by alchemists. These vats are extremely expensive, with an estimated cost of tens of millions.

As you can see, although the medicine vat exploded, thanks to Liu Gu's intervention, the medicinal herbs and the water used for soaking were firmly held in mid-air.

Lin Chen now understood why Liu Gu said that a catalyst master was necessary to use legendary evolution materials.

The sudden change startled the little fox, but it suppressed its fear and forced itself to calm down.

Lin Chen had told it that it was not allowed to come down unless he gave the order.

The little fox was in dire straits at this moment, because the water here had been infused with the phoenix's blood essence and had begun to burn.

The little fox wasn't afraid of fire, but it still felt the burning sensation was too intense.

It seemed to be burning its flesh and bones.
This process is extremely painful.

"Go, Xiao Hong!"

"Moo!"

"Roar~~"

The man and the two beasts immediately offered encouragement.

They knew the little fox must be feeling terrible.

Hearing Lin Chen and the others' voices, the little fox finally mustered its courage. It bit its lip, and its entire pupils turned blood red.
Is the little fox going to die?
It was drowsy and felt very sleepy.

It didn't want to go to sleep because it now had a warm home.
In that home, there was its beast tamer, Niu Niu, and a polar bear.

It loves this home, and it loves this world.

Therefore, one must not die.

It struggled to open its eyes, but its consciousness gradually became hazy, and it eventually fell into a deep sleep.
