"Brother, actually, our appearance wasn't a coincidence. After we left last time, Qing'er said she wanted to observe you, to study why you could make me reach the full level of spirit attachment."
"So, we followed you for a few days. You won't blame Ling'er, right?"
Jiang Feiling stood in front of Li Tianming, speaking sincerely.
"Of course not, I don't blame you. It's a good thing you followed me. If you hadn't, I would have been in trouble." Li Tianming couldn't help but marvel; indeed, after the little yellow chick appeared, his luck had turned for the better.
He looked down at the girl in front of him, with her snow-white skin and a faint glow.
Her skin was flawless, her face like a fairy from a dream. When her eyes met his, Li Tianming felt his heart become pure.
"In the end, Qing'er still couldn't figure it out, so she admitted it. I told her that Brother and Ling'er have a good connection. In the future, Brother must come to Yan City to visit Ling'er. When Ling'er has other special abilities, I want to try them on Brother." She said with anticipation, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Li Tianming.
"Absolutely no problem, I will definitely come." Li Tianming said.
"A toad lusting after a swan. I'm afraid that even if you come, you won't be able to jump over the city walls. You should just stay home and farm." Qing'er rolled her eyes and mocked.
This chick was relentless, always wanting Li Tianming to farm and produce food for her nation of Zhuque.
"Qing'er, give Brother a jade pendant, so it will be convenient for him to find me in the future." Jiang Feiling said as they were about to leave.
"No way." Qing'er pouted.
"Hmm?"
"Alright, Ling'er, you've changed, really, a girl grown up can't be kept!" Qing'er gritted her teeth but still took out a green jade pendant and threw it to Li Tianming, saying, "Stupid pig, I advise you not to use my name to swindle, or I'll stew your companion beast!"
The little yellow chick was so pitiful; many people wanted to stew a mushroom with a chick.
"Brother, if you encounter a situation like just now, you can take out this jade pendant and tell them you are the person of Princess Qing. They won't dare to kill you then." Jiang Feiling said gently.
Li Tianming quickly put away the jade pendant; this was a good thing. He currently lacked a powerful background.
With this jade pendant of Princess Qing, his actions would be much more convenient in the future, and he wouldn't have to face situations like just now.
This was a very significant gift.
"Thank you, Ling'er." He was genuinely grateful.
In his eyes, this girl was delicate and charming, a perfect creation of heaven. He wondered what he had done to deserve her reaching the full level of spirit attachment.
"Brother, who should you thank more?" Jiang Feiling blinked, her mischievous look even more beautiful.
Li Tianming realized and said, "Princess Qing, thank you for the jade pendant."
"No need to thank me. I warn you again, absolutely do not use it to swindle, do not tarnish my name!" She was clearly unwilling, but she had no choice because of Ling'er's request, so she was still angry.
"No problem, I promise you, I'll take off the jade pendant when farming, and I won't dirty it." Li Tianming said with a smile.
Pfft!
Li Tianming was actually quite humorous. This self-deprecating joke made Princess Qing laugh despite herself.
The key was that she felt it was embarrassing to laugh out loud, so she quickly put on a serious face, coughed twice, and pretended she hadn't been amused.
"Brother, come over here." Jiang Feiling smiled and called Li Tianming over after watching their conversation.
"What's up?" Li Tianming asked.
"Let's have a private word." Jiang Feiling said.
"I'm listening." Li Tianming lowered his head, his ear close to her face.
The girl's fragrance was dreamlike, intoxicating, and captivating. He glanced at her face with the corner of his eye, feeling a flutter in his heart.
"Brother, do you want to get that divine source? It's in that direction." Jiang Feiling whispered in his ear and pointed in a direction.
Li Tianming was taken aback.
How did she know he wanted to find that divine source?
How did she know the direction of the divine source?
This must be the important thing she wanted to tell him.
This girl was truly like a fairy. Although she had no beast essence and seemed frail, her mysterious qualities were truly astonishing.
"Let's go." Qing'er urged.
This time, they were really leaving.
"Brother, see you in Yan City." As Li Tianming was still in shock, Qing'er had already pulled Jiang Feiling away, gradually disappearing from his sight.
When the two figures completely vanished, Li Tianming was still a bit dazed, feeling a sense of emptiness.
It wasn't just because Jiang Feiling was beautiful, but the feeling of familiarity and closeness, and the sense of a fated encounter, had deeply impressed her in his heart.
She looked innocent and pure but was also very meticulous and insightful.
For example, she knew to bring the jade pendant from Princess Qing to protect Li Tianming, and she noticed the change in his expression when he heard about the divine source, even pointing out the direction for him!
All this indicated that this girl was not simple, and her secrets aroused Li Tianming's great curiosity.
"Tsk tsk, you look so lecherous when you're in love." As soon as they left, the little yellow chick couldn't resist mocking him.
"Are you tired of living?" Li Tianming put away the jade pendant and focused on the direction Jiang Feiling had pointed.
"Hehe, even if you use your wing, you're no match for me." The little yellow chick said arrogantly.
"What about now?" Li Tianming raised his left arm, revealing his black arm.
"Brother!" The little yellow chick's face changed instantly, almost kneeling on the ground, trembling and saying, "Brother, where does it hurt? Let me rub it for you."
"That's better." Li Tianming laughed.
It was all in jest.
"Divine source." Li Tianming searched his memory for information about this treasure.
A divine source is a mystical object naturally born from the universe.
It is said that divine sources are created by the gods and bestowed upon humanity. They come in various forms, such as stones, liquids, or gems.
When a companion beast or a fierce beast obtains a divine source that matches their attributes, they may undergo "evolution," advancing to a higher tier.
Once a companion beast evolves, it increases the potential and abilities of both the beastmaster and the companion beast, enhancing all aspects of their power!
Divine sources are classified into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Mystic, and Yellow. Even the most common Yellow-level divine source is said to be able to evolve a companion beast to the seventh tier.
A seventh-tier companion beast is enough to create a terrifying genius beastmaster. In the nation of Zhuque, a seventh-tier companion beast is called a "Royal Beast," symbolizing the king of companion beasts!
The more powerful Mystic and Earth-level divine sources have even more dramatic effects. For example, an Earth-level divine source can evolve a companion beast into a legendary "Sacred Beast"!
The Sacred Beast War Soul that Li Tianming once obtained was related to a Sacred Beast, which could create the supreme existence of the entire Yanhuang Continent!
As for the Heaven-level divine source, it exists only in legends.
"Firefly, you said that a divine source would be of great use to you?" Li Tianming asked seriously.
"Yes, when I heard the term, I remembered it from my memories. When I transformed from an ancient chaotic giant beast into a companion beast, many of my abilities were restricted. A divine source can help a companion beast evolve and also help me break free from these restrictions, allowing me to become infinitely stronger until I can once again become an ancient chaotic giant beast. This is the most instinctive answer given by my current bloodline."
The little yellow chick had been thinking about how to break free from its bloodline restrictions and become the eternal phoenix that feeds on the sun.
When it heard the term "divine source," it seemed to have found an answer. The term made its blood boil, and even Li Tianming could feel it.
It now had the constitution of an eternal phoenix, but its potential was far from fully realized.
"As long as there's a way, that's the best. I'm afraid of being clueless. Since you need the divine source so much, and I know its direction, what are we waiting for?" Li Tianming said.
"Do you want to seize the divine source from the Thunder Venerable Manor? They have seven people, and each has parents and elders protecting them. Their parents and elders can easily kill you." The little yellow chick said.
"To deal with their parents, this jade pendant can help. From Zhang Chong's fear of Princess Qing, it seems these people's parents are not of high status in Yan City, at most middle-level in the Thunder Venerable Manor." This is why Li Tianming felt that Jiang Feiling had really helped him a lot.
A jade pendant could make him a person protected by Princess Qing.
"So, we only need to deal with the young people of the Thunder Venerable Manor." Li Tianming said.
His eyes narrowed. Although Lin Xiaoting was the one who had harmed Jin Yu, many geniuses from the Thunder Venerable Manor were accomplices.
Even if the young people from Huolin Mountain hadn't helped, Li Tianming wouldn't have a good impression of them, and he had a strong sense of enmity, especially towards Zhang Zixuan, who was not a good person.
"I suddenly remembered someone." The little yellow chick said.
"Who?"
"Liuyang, he said he would stay in Lihuo City for a month. Why would he stay for a month? He must be one of the competitors for the divine source! With his Ninth Tier Beast Pulse cultivation, he is likely the most promising candidate." The little yellow chick said firmly, also disliking that young man.
Especially since he had taken Li Tianming's Yanhuang Order.
"You're right. Liuyang must be in Huolin Mountain, and his sister Liu Qing, as well as my father, must have come in with him. This is interesting." Li Tianming's blood boiled, and he was eager for the upcoming challenge.
"What kind of father is he, first giving the Yanhuang Order to Liuyang, and now bringing him in to help find the divine source. Is Liuyang his son?" The little yellow chick mocked.
It made sense. Reality was so absurd; his own father had kicked him out and given everything to a stranger!
"He often came to Huolin Mountain. The person most familiar with Huolin Mountain is him. Do you think Liu Qing married Li Yanfeng for her brother's Yanhuang Order and the divine source?" Li Tianming said with a cold laugh.
"There's a good chance."
"Damn, that's really great." Li Tianming stood up.
He looked in the direction Jiang Feiling had pointed.
"In that case, I have to take the divine source. I'll make sure you get nothing, Li Yanfeng!" He was speechless. He didn't believe there was another father as bizarre as Li Yanfeng.
"And Liuyang, the Yanhuang Order that belongs to me, I will take it back this time with my own hands!"
After making this vow, the two of them, man and chick, set out without delay, ready to face the battle!
