Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog

Wu Tian's arms, which were originally wrapped around Lu Nanxi's slender waist, suddenly stiffened like iron. In that instant, his heart felt as if it had been gripped tightly by an invisible and cold giant hand, and suddenly stopped beating.

Then came the frantic pounding of his heart, almost shattering his sternum. A torrent of emotion, mixed with extreme anger, instantly swept away all his laziness, tenderness, and satiation, dragging him into an endless, raging storm.

"I don't know what that old man is planning. I refused repeatedly, but he wouldn't listen. He insisted that I go to his wedding banquet with him in three months..."

Lu Nanxi's words echoed in his ears, but Wu Tian seemed not to hear them.

Bai Qian was his first partner in this life. In the Jade Spring Cave on Xuantian Peak, she endured the pain of bloodline separation and soul tearing to give birth to a son and a daughter for him.

The woman with silver hair flowing like moonlight, with unparalleled beauty like a fairy from the moon palace, suddenly appeared beside him in a way that caught him completely off guard.

Since faking his death and escaping, Wu Tian has been consciously trying not to think about Bai Qian, who carries too many painful memories.

But when he actually heard the name Bai Qian, and heard about the six great families of Southern Xinjiang besieging him...

His heart was confused.

For some reason, he suddenly recalled the scene of their first meeting...

In the ancient and dark jungle, the female demon was completely naked, without a single thread. Although she had a human body, she had a tail trailing behind her buttocks, her canine teeth slightly protruding, and her furry ears peeking out from her silver hair.

Her skin was as white as ivory, outlining an extremely stunning body curve. Her long silver hair cascaded down to her waist and hips like a waterfall, with some strands falling in front of her chest and spreading out, but unable to completely conceal her enormous breasts.

That year, at the Moon Gazing Peak cave, during their first encounter, Bai Qian was bathing in a hot spring that resembled an ancient well. The moonlight and her skin reflected each other, creating a beautiful and moving scene that caused the young white dog to let out a low growl of heat...

The floodgates of memory were violently blasted open, and countless images surged forth.

Inside Yuquan Cave, she lay weakly on her side after giving birth, her fur dull, yet she still gently cradled her cubs.

Outside Duanlong Ridge, she turned around resolutely, her silver hair and skirt flying wildly in the wind, her slender back straight but trembling slightly.
High in the Ten Thousand Mountains and on the Suspended Peak, they depended on each other for survival...

She was his wife and the mother of his two children.

"You...you really deserve to die!"

To attempt to reach the Demon Saint realm is to defy the heavens, a perilous journey with a slim chance of survival. If one were to be surrounded and killed by the six great families at this moment, how dire the situation would be.

Lu Nanxi's words came to an abrupt halt. She noticed the strangeness in the man beside her and looked at Wu Tian with some confusion.

"You know Bai Qian? Are you very close?"

She asked tentatively, her brows furrowed, countless guesses flashing through her mind in an instant.

Wu Tian slowly lowered his eyes, not looking at her.

A thousand words stuck in my throat, but in the end, they all boiled down to one sentence: "I guess you could say we... know each other!"

Moonlight spilled onto the cold ground, creating a jumbled play of light and shadow.

Lu Nanxi remained silent for a long time. She wanted to ask more questions, but in the end she only opened her mouth and didn't say anything more.

She simply snuggled closer to Wu Tian, ​​letting him hold her even tighter: "Let's not talk about these worries anymore. You just got back, so get some rest first."

"Okay!" Wu Tian whispered, and hugged her tightly.

……

That night, the two slept in each other's arms.

Lu Nanxi did not cultivate all night and slept soundly in his arms, all the fatigue and depression she had accumulated during this period dissipating.

Wu Tian, ​​however, did not sleep all night, gazing at the moonlight outside the window, his mind filled with countless thoughts.

Bai Qian, Lu Nanxi, the Jade Yang Ancestor, the Six Great Families, a trap set for their annihilation...

One thing after another, like a tangled mess, swirled in my mind.

He knew that peaceful days were probably numbered.

"We must find a way to kill Ancestor Yuyang."

"Firstly, this will completely sever the root of trouble in Lu Nanxi's life, and from now on, no one in the Lu family will be able to bully or restrain her."

"Secondly, if I can obtain the blood bead of Ancestor Yuyang, I can quickly raise the 'True Explanation of the Heavenly Blazing Fire' to a higher level in a short period of time."

"Even if you can't cultivate a primordial spirit, you can at least condense a magic bead."

“The development of other supernatural abilities and talents is too slow…”

"My strength... I'm still not strong enough..."

Wu Tian sighed softly and slowly closed his eyes.

However, within his body, the True Blood of the Heavenly Blazing Fire began to circulate slowly, quietly cultivating along the path of the eighth level.

Silent all night.

In the days that followed, Wu Tian stayed by Lu Nanxi's side in the form of a puppy.

During the day, Lu Nanxi handled affairs in the mountain city, while Wu Tian stayed at the Jade Pavilion to cultivate. At night, the two of them would cultivate the Double Wheel of Cursed Fire Ascension Technique together.

Wu Tian repeatedly tried switching between different bloodlines for dual cultivation, exploring the differences and seeing which method was faster.

Without a doubt... it is the bloodline of the Huodou.

Lu Nanxi's physique resonates with the Huodou bloodline in an extremely subtle way, and each time they cultivate together, both of them can gain great benefits.

However, switching to dual cultivation of the Heavenly Blazing Fire True Blood allows both parties to quickly digest the benefits they gain.

Therefore... he has to switch to a different bloodline every night...

The monstrous demon and the handsome young man... In this process, Lu Nanxi felt like she was going crazy. She became more and more intoxicated by Wu Tian's bloodline and aura. This man gave her an indescribable obsession, making her sink deeper and deeper.

Sometimes, even just a quiet embrace, feeling the pulse of each other's blood, can make her feel incredibly aroused...

However, this kind of training significantly improved the cultivation levels of both of them.

Lu Nanxi's Heavenly Blazing Fire Magic Pearl became increasingly solid, and her understanding of the principles of fire magic became more and more refined. She gradually mastered the tenth level of the Heavenly Blazing Fire True Understanding.

Wu Tian, ​​on the other hand, made rapid progress.

Driven by both dual cultivation and its own system, the True Blood of the Heavenly Blazing Fire is growing at an astonishing speed.

Especially the Body of Calamity, this advanced talent had already been cultivated to 83% completion, and with such arduous training, it is gradually approaching perfection.

At dusk that day, Lu Nanxi had just finished dealing with city affairs and returned to the Jade Pavilion when she saw Wu Tian transformed into a red hound, perched on the bed. His fur, burning like flames, shone brilliantly and emitted the glow of the sunset.

"Nanxi, protect me. There might be some commotion ahead."

Wu Tian did not open his eyes. His progress in transforming into a demonic body had reached 100%. The reason he hadn't taken the final step was that he was waiting for Lu Nanxi to return.

In fact, he had also considered sneaking out of Lu Family Mountain City and going deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains to break through and condense a second divine power seed.

However, the Ten Thousand Mountains are becoming increasingly chaotic and dangerous. The Fire God Palace is already gathering manpower, preparing to completely destroy the Undying Palace. The situation between the two sides is becoming more and more tense.

Although the Lu family still has the old villain Yu Yang in Lu Family Mountain City, if they really encounter danger, with Lu Nanxi protecting them, there is still room for maneuver.

If things really escalate and alert that old bastard, at worst, after breaking through, I'll just take Lu Nanxi and flee, leaving the Lu family for good. We'll return to settle scores when our cultivation is more advanced. Lu Nanxi had already communicated with Wu Tian a few days ago. She nodded silently, her hands forming hand seals. The Heavenly Blazing Fire Pearl appeared between her brows, burning with golden flames, and a Heavenly Divine Pillar floated and sank within the flames.

"Focus on your breakthrough, leave the rest to me."

The same words came out of her mouth.

When she condensed the magic pearl that day, Wu Tian did the same, clearing away all the hidden dangers and obstacles for her.

Wu Tian didn't speak again. The Huo Dou bloodline within him began to surge uncontrollably; he could no longer suppress it.

"Roar!"

With a deep roar, his entire body burst into flames, tiny sparks of fire, interwoven with incantations, spreading across every nook and cranny of his body.

This is the origin of the Huodou bloodline and Huodou body. At this moment, all the sparks began to burn wildly, and even the flesh and bones made a sizzling sound as they burned.

Countless sparks collided, incantations arose and vanished, emitting an eerie buzzing sound, as if from ancient sacrificial chants.

Lu Nanxi's pupils contracted slightly as she saw Wu Tian's fur and flesh gradually being burned to ash in the flames. Her expression changed drastically, and she instinctively rushed forward.

But Wu Tian roared to stop him, "Don't come any closer, this is a necessary process for my body to transform."

"No matter what happens, don't go near it."

After saying these words, Wu Tian no longer cared about anything else.

His hair, which shone like crimson clouds, gradually turned to ashes in the raging fire, revealing the flesh beneath, which was as clear as ruby ​​yet covered with mysterious dark red patterns.

But soon, the fire that had spread throughout his body was fully awakened and erupted!
"laugh!!"

There was no earth-shattering roar, only a faint burning sound that made one's soul feel a burning pain.

Wu Tian's powerful and fierce body, starting from his limbs, melted away rapidly, like a wax figure thrown into a furnace.

Flesh and blood evaporated, bones charred, and internal organs twisted and shrank in the crimson-gold flames, eventually turning into wisps of smoke mixed with a murky aura.

Every piece of flesh, every bone, and every organ, when burned, left behind countless tiny embers.

These sparks intertwined and collided, spontaneously arranging and reorganizing themselves according to some ancient, profound trajectory that points directly to the origin of calamity and fire.

Lu Nanxi was horrified. Even though she was prepared, she was still shocked by this terrifying breakthrough method that was almost self-destructive.

For a fleeting moment, she even thought that Wu Tian had failed in his breakthrough and had died by self-immolation.

If it weren't for the ever-growing vitality emanating from that raging fire, she wouldn't have been able to suppress her worries and anxieties.

Finally, when the last trace of flesh and blood completely disappeared into the crimson-gold flames.

The body of Huodou was no longer visible on the spot; only a violently churning cloud of fire, so hot that it slightly distorted the void, remained.

Amidst the fiery clouds, countless tiny yet crystal-clear incantations arose, flowed, and collided, emitting chanting sounds that seemed to stir up calamities and restlessness in people's hearts.

The next moment, the cloud of fire suddenly shrank inward, as if a giant beast had taken a deep breath.

Boom!

It was not a sound, but a tremor of heaven and earth.

Lu Nanxi looked up in horror, as if she could sense that some kind of malevolent aura, disaster, and misfortune, which filled the heavens and earth but were usually difficult to detect, was beginning to gather.

The calamities surged forth from the void, from the earth, and from the unknowable unknown, transforming into torrents carrying an aura of misfortune and ruin, which poured into the fiery cloud.

When the aura of calamity collided with the fiery clouds, they did not annihilate each other, but instead underwent a mysterious fusion.

The calamity energy was decomposed and absorbed by the fire seed incantation, transforming into the fuel for the flames to burn, causing the crimson flames to quickly acquire a deep, restrained, and awe-inspiring dark red and gray-black luster.

The flickering flames seemed to carry the rhythm of doom, burning everything and bringing about the end.

After absorbing a large amount of calamity energy, the fiery cloud began to rapidly become clearer and more solid.

Limbs, torso, head, long tail... a ferocious beast entirely outlined by flames gradually took shape.

This ferocious beast resembled a dog, exuding a fierce and ancient aura. Every wisp of flame on its body was filled with dense incantations and an aura of calamity.

Its entire body was engulfed in flames, and the red color became more intense as it went down its limbs, gradually turning blood red. By the time it reached its four claws, it had turned a deep, almost black, charcoal-like color.

It resembles a dog, its entire body is ablaze with flames, its four paws are as black as ink, and its tail is like a comet. With a gentle sway, it leaves a trail of blood.

It is about three zhang tall, and its entire body seems to be carved out from the purest flames. Inside, endless calamity energy flows like blood, and the hair on its body is made of billions of flame hairs that are constantly being created, dying, wriggling and recombining.

Its eyes, like two balls of blood-red light, spun coldly, as if to drag everything in the world into bloodshed and destruction.

Where the four feet trod, charred claw marks were left in the void, lingering for a long time, exuding an aura of calamity that caused all things to wither.

The moment this monster appeared...

High in the heavens, the sun shines brightly!
A dark red star, with a restrained yet undeniable radiance, suddenly appeared in the twilight; it was the ancient star Mars.

A terrifying will, both cold and scorching, filled with the intent of conquest, catastrophe, and destruction, which only Wu Tian could clearly perceive at this moment, traversed endless time and space and crashed down.

It cascaded into his newly formed body like a waterfall.

It was precisely injected into his soon-to-be-formed body!

Take a breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

The jade tower began to shake.
No, the entire Shiwan Mountain range was shaking.

The setting sun in the twilight was stained blood-red without warning, and even the crescent moon that slowly appeared in the eastern sky was stained with blood-red light.

At the same time, in the western sky, the dark red ancient star Yinghuo suddenly increased in brightness.

At dusk, the sun and moon appear together, and Mars aligns with the sun and moon.

Even the sunset on the horizon seemed to be soaked in blood.

Such a magnificent celestial phenomenon filled the sky above the entire southern border, alarming both demons and human cultivators.

However, Wu Tian was completely unaware of the turmoil he had caused. At this moment, he resonated with the ancient star Yinghuo, and an incomparably terrifying will fell like a waterfall, merging into his body.

Wu Tian felt an unprecedented sense of fullness permeating his body. All the incantations, flames, and calamity energy within him were circulating along an incredibly mysterious trajectory, eventually condensing into a diagram.

At that moment, its body seemed to resonate with some mysterious force, as if it had become a darling of heaven and earth, an embodiment of the Tao and reason.

A cold, mechanical system notification sounded at that moment.

Ding! System notification: Your advanced talent, Body of the Calamity, has been perfected.

*Ding! System notification: You have received the Infusion of Mars' Light. Your Huo Dou Body has undergone a transformation, and you are now a 12th-grade Divine Power Seed, with the Mars Destiny.* (End of Chapter)
