"Ooh, ooh..."
The little one excitedly called out to Feng Yin, its little mouth wide open, expressing a mix of excitement and pride, as if to say, "I can crawl now, come and praise me!" It was as if it had achieved something significant, brimming with pride.
"Amazing!"
Feng Yin genuinely gave a thumbs up, his face beaming with a smile.
The little one became even more joyful, calling out "ooh, ooh" twice, and then started to show off its new skill, taking a step forward...
It rolled over...
Then took another step, and rolled over again...
Excitedly rolling all the way, it kept calling out "ooh, ooh" as it charged towards Feng Yin.
Seeing such a "joyful" performance, Feng Yin almost burst out laughing.
So, this is how you crawl by rolling. No wonder the marks were so messy, the trajectory even more so.
But he didn't skimp on the praise, lavishing it with compliments.
"Great! Amazing! So... Mmm!"
He took a deep breath of the cat's scent!
After all, although it had only learned to crawl halfway, it had truly mastered rolling, doing it with a unique flair, a significant improvement!
The only regret was that he didn't have a camera or a phone to record the little one's rolling and crawling...
With such a cute face and an appearance that was almost cruelly adorable, it could definitely become a money-printing machine!
And it would be the ultimate black history, a truly epic piece of material!
The little one kept calling out "ooh, ooh," rolling around in Feng Yin's palm, showing off its new skills, fearless of falling.
At its most excited moment, Feng Yin's hand tilted, and the little one plopped onto the bed. Although the bed was soft and the little one was light, it still got a bit dizzy and lay on the bed for a while, confused, calling out, "Ooh??"
Feng Yin coughed, quickly picked it up again, and soothed it for a while. The little one soon forgot about the fall and started rolling again.
This time, it was even faster, as if it had become addicted.
Then it plopped onto the bed again.
This time, it was a bit higher and the fall was a bit harder.
The little one lay on the bed, dazed for a while, its eyes wide with confusion.
After three such falls, the little one, having learned its lesson, no longer rolled around carelessly. When it wanted to roll, it would cautiously test the edge with its little paws, checking if it was safe.
This was the beginning of its safety awareness...
Feng Yin didn't want to do this, but the little one couldn't understand anything at this stage, so teaching it would be in vain. The only way to make it effective was through this kind of physical training.
Indeed, the results were very clear.
Watching from the side and controlling the situation, he made sure it only fell on the bed, where it wouldn't get hurt, at most just a bit shaken. But if he wasn't around, and the little one fell off the bed or from a higher place... it could get seriously injured, or even worse, lose its life. The little one was just a baby, its constitution not much stronger than a newborn kitten.
Now, seeing the little one finally develop some safety awareness, he felt relieved.
It was worth the three intentional falls...
Placing the little one back on the bed, although it still crawled and rolled around, it would stop and test the edge with its little paws whenever it reached the side of the bed, stretching its head out and then pulling it back...
After a few tests, it would turn around...
"Success!"
Feng Yin's lips curled into a proud smile: "I'm actually a genius at child-rearing, a small test, and the results are immediate!"
"But the little one is also smart, it's only been three days since it was born..."
"Amazing!"
"For a human baby to do this, it would probably take at least three months..."
After taking care of the little one, Feng Yin started practicing, as he felt that the first qi vortex of the Huasheng Jing in his dantian was about to fully form!
He had been eagerly waiting for this, to the point that he paid less attention to the constantly updating tasks on the Jun Tian Jian.
Naturally, he didn't notice that Lao Si Xu had gone out on another mission.
Lao Si Xu's timing for this mission was very precise, and he was sure to gain something from it.
Feng Yin focused on his cultivation for the whole day, continuing until the late night. The qi vortex finally formed as he wished.
With the formation of the qi vortex, he had a very clear and tangible feeling: he could now perform the first true transformation.
Of course, this was still the "Qi Gathering Transformation," not the "Spirit Transformation."
After this transformation, he would need to wait a day to gather enough spiritual energy for the next one. For the same living being, the Qi Gathering Transformation could only be performed nine times.
The same applied to the "Spirit Awakening," "Spirit Shaping," and "Spirit Enlightenment," each limited to nine times.
When the second qi vortex formed, it would be the "Spirit Awakening" stage.
Qi Gathering increased spiritual wisdom and began to shed the demonic embryo.
Spirit Awakening had the same effect, increasing the foundation and completely transforming the demonic embryo into a Dao base.
Spirit Enlightenment opened spiritual wisdom, from this stage, one could cultivate human cultivation techniques, and their demonic origin would not become a hindrance or conflict.
Additionally, the most important and critical point was that when a demon cultivates to a certain level or reaches the Foundation Establishment stage, or the Transformation stage, they would attract heavenly tribulations.
However, demons who had undergone Spirit Enlightenment would not experience these tribulations.
They would be like human cultivators, only facing heavenly tribulations when breaking through major stages; compared to demons who faced life-threatening tribulations with every minor breakthrough, the difference was immeasurable.
Of course, when it came to the final heavenly tribulation of transforming from mortal to immortal, both humans and demons faced the same treatment. Entering the path of cultivation was inherently defying the heavens, and one had to bear this cost to advance further.
The subsequent Spirit Shaping corresponded to the Transformation stage of demons, where the more shaping, the more perfect the Dao embryo.
The next stage, Spirit Enlightenment, opened an even more advanced path...
As for the later stages of Spirit Penetration and Spirit Transformation... they were currently too distant, beyond understanding and comprehension.
Of course, if Feng Yin, the transformer, reached a certain cultivation level, a single Spirit Transformation could bypass all previous steps, directly achieving the transformation.
For Feng Yin to reach that level... based on his current cultivation speed, conservatively estimated...
"A thousand years at least..." Feng Yin calculated silently: "Or even more..."
"But for now, there's no need to think too far ahead. We should take steady steps, focusing on the next step."
"Since the qi vortex has formed, the first transformation should naturally be on this little one, as we are closely related, sharing in each other's successes and failures..."
Feng Yin now considered the little one as his own.
As for the matter of its mother coming to take it back... Feng Yin thought it wasn't a big issue, at least not for another three to four years. By then, maybe I'll be strong enough to fight back?
Anyway, we'll see when the time comes. For now, let's enjoy the good times!
Focusing on the qi vortex in his dantian, he felt a surge of energy from his dantian, flowing through his meridians, causing a subtle swelling sensation.
The energy flowed smoothly, starting from the dantian, passing through the chest, over the shoulders, down the arms, through the Xuan Guan, Qu Chi, San Yang, and San Li... finally focusing on the middle finger.
Feng Yin looked down and saw a faint light emanating from his fingertip.
Though it was just a spark, in the darkness, it was dazzlingly bright.
Holding the little one in his arms, he looked into its impossibly beautiful big eyes, which gazed at him affectionately.
The soft skin against his skin felt incredibly comfortable and intimate.
Feng Yin softly but firmly said, "From today on, you will be called... Feng Ying."
Feng Yin's shadow, always following him wherever he went.
This name reflected Feng Yin's ambition.
The transformation light flashed.
Under the clear, puzzled gaze of the little one, Feng Yin, following the instructions of the Huasheng Jing, gently but firmly pressed his glowing fingertip to the little Feng Ying's forehead.
A beam of light suddenly brightened.
A mysterious halo enveloped the little one, radiating an indescribable beauty.
...
With one finger, Feng Yin felt as if his body had suddenly become empty, as if all his energy had been drained by this transformation.
It was a feeling of emptiness, as if his body had been hollowed out.
Although his cultivation level hadn't changed, his spiritual energy hadn't been depleted, and his combat power remained intact, the feeling of emptiness was very real.
At the same time, a faint, clear energy surged from his fingertip, rushing into his body.
Feng Yin felt it briefly before it disappeared, leaving him puzzled...
"Rumble..."
His stomach growled.
Then a slight feeling of hunger followed...
The halo remained on the little one for about two seconds, then converged and focused, forming a beam of light that silently entered the little one's forehead.
Little Feng Ying's eyes showed confusion, bewilderment, and helplessness at the changes...
"Ooh... Oo..."
With a soft call, its head swayed, lying bonelessly in Feng Yin's palm, fainting.
Its head tilted, sprawling on its back.
Its little belly rose and fell slightly, its white fur shimmering like jade.
Then, under Feng Yin's watchful eyes, the white fur grew inch by inch, lengthening until it covered the little one's entire body. Then it fell out, and a new layer of white fur began to grow.
Still crystal white, still soft and beautiful.
Feng Yin examined closely and confirmed that the little one's body had grown slightly during the sleep and fur change!
But only a tiny bit.
