Chapter 55

Perhaps realizing what Ning Xu was thinking, the Melon-Eating System slowly said, 【Host, she is a being more extraordinary than an eighth-grade—Revival Pill. The eighth-grade pill still carries slight pill poison, but her Universal Healing Blood has no side effects whatsoever.】

【Once this opportunity is missed, there will be no other. If there’s wool, of course, you have to fleece it.】

This gift felt too heavy. After some thought, Ning Xu said, “If there’s a chance, I want to help her.”

The Melon-Eating System casually said, 【Next time you meet her, give her a sect map of Cloud Summit Sect. There are some secret rooms and shortcuts; maybe one day, she’ll find them useful.】

“Okay!”

The Melon-Eating System lamented, 【That spirit herb… it was so good, yet she ate it. For her, this spirit herb is more harmful than beneficial. What a waste, truly a waste!】

Ning Xu instinctively knew the Melon-Eating System wasn’t thinking of anything good. She asked, “If the spirit herb were still here, who would you want to give it to?”

Without thinking, the Melon-Eating System immediately said, 【Of course, to the Innocent Cultivator. When you need it, just bite him… use sharp teeth to pierce his neck, blood will flow out… tsk tsk tsk.】

Ning Xu didn’t expect it to be this kind of “melon.”

Ning Xu said, “…You should watch fewer strange things.”

After she said this, she was about to move forward, but the Melon-Eating System suggested that she take the Universal Healing Blood.

【The murderous aura here is too strong. It will break through your spiritual defense; your cultivation is still too low. But if you take the Universal Healing Blood, it will be fine. Whatever injuries you sustain, you can instantly recover from them.】

Ning Xu was stunned. This was amazing.

No wonder Yunshang Mirror wanted to imprison Xin Kui. Xin Kui really carried a great treasure. But this wasn’t good for her.

Although Ning Xu knew the Melon-Eating System wouldn’t be talking nonsense, she still hesitated slightly.

The Melon-Eating System knew what she was concerned about and directly said, 【It’s sweet and fragrant, even more reliable than the eighth-grade pill. Quickly take it.】

“Okay!”

After taking the Universal Healing Blood, Ning Xu continued to move forward. This space, apart from her, was filled with ominous white bones. These bones were large and didn’t seem to belong to cultivators or spirit beasts.

“What are these?”

This time, the Melon-Eating System didn’t use vague terms like “the time isn’t right” to fool Ning Xu. Instead, it said, 【These are the subordinates of the Demon God.】

Ning Xu knew there were Demon Kings among the demon race, but this was the first time she heard of a Demon God. She instinctively felt this place was extraordinary. In fact, it was indeed very unusual.

【This is an isolated space, so let me make it brief.】

The Melon-Eating System explained, 【The Demon God’s name is ‘Disaster.’ Every time it is born, it brings infinite calamity. Many years ago, it perished together with the Human Emperor.

The Human Emperor, you see, had strength similar to that of the Demon God. After that battle, the Human Emperor completely vanished from this world, but the Demon God, due to the nature of the demon race, split its beast core into four parts and hid them away. One of those parts is here.

The demon race wants to use the power of the Demon God’s beast core. But to make the beast core function, they must absorb enough blood from cultivators.

So, when you entered this space, you took a deadly attack. But it’s no big deal. Of course, things are not as simple as they seem, and there are many other factors involved.

What we need to do now is find the Demon Core.】

Ning Xu was silent for a moment and asked, “Then?”

The Melon-Eating System said, 【Then, of course, we feed it to Pig Brother. Pig Brother can eat anything, and after eating this quarter of the Demon God’s beast core, Pig Brother’s strength will surely improve significantly.】

As it said this, the Melon-Eating System became increasingly excited, 【I can’t wait to see Pig Brother eat the Demon God’s beast core.】

【Once Pig Brother’s cultivation improves, he’ll be able to benefit you, his master.】

【Pig Brother will definitely love this Demon Core!】

Walking in this vast, isolated space, Ning Xu asked, “Where is the Demon Core?”

【Just keep going forward. Although the Demon God, that old pervert, hasn’t been around for nearly ten thousand years, there’s still a lot of violent aura around its beast core. When you get close, just release Pig Brother from the spirit beast bag. The rest will be handled by Pig Brother himself.】

For things like hunting for food, it was still best to rely on Pig Brother.

Speaking of which, the spirit beast bag Ning Xu was using now was exchanged for contribution points from the sect not long ago. Otherwise, at this moment, Pig Brother would probably still be snoring away in a hut on the South or North Peak.

Now, he had moved to a new place, sleeping in the spirit beast bag.

After walking for several hours, the Melon-Eating System spoke again, “You can release Pig Brother now.”

Ning Xu just unfastened the spirit beast bag when Pig Brother immediately dashed in a direction. Before she even realized it, Pig Brother was frantically digging into the ground with all four hooves.

In no time, dust flew everywhere. From its movements, Ning Xu could sense its urgency.

After working together with all four hooves, the Demon Core was soon unearthed. The next second, Pig Brother let out a howl and swallowed the Demon Core in one bite.

Ning Xu: This was the first time she had seen Pig Brother so active. It suddenly wasn’t so lazy, and she, as the master, felt a little unaccustomed to it.

The moment Pig Brother finished eating the Demon Core, Ning Xu felt her cultivation rapidly rising.

Qi Refining 5th Layer.

Qi Refining 6th Layer.

Qi Refining 7th Layer.

…

Until her Qi Refining was complete.

The Melon-Eating System clapped its hands, 【Congratulations, Host, you are just one step away from Foundation Establishment.】

For the first time, Ning Xu truly experienced the convenience brought by a high-level spirit beast. Even though her cultivation had progressed so quickly, her foundation remained solid, and her cultivation wasn’t superficial at all.

The Melon-Eating System casually said, 【Of course. You and Pig Brother complement each other; when he gets stronger, you benefit as well. This is the only way to upgrade easily in the cultivation world without any hidden dangers. However, high-level spirit beasts are rare, and many cultivators want to use this method but can’t.】

After saying that, the Melon-Eating System suddenly shouted.

【Oh no!】

Ning Xu asked, “What’s wrong?”

The Melon-Eating System muttered, 【The Demon God is a super old pervert with a harem all over the demon race. When it was alive, it only sought pleasure and indulged in a life of decadence. Now that Pig Brother has eaten its Demon Core, will he become an old pervert too?】

【But Pig Brother is so pure and simple. If he consumes the Demon Core, it’ll balance him out with the old perverted Demon God, and that’ll be perfect.】

Ning Xu: “…”
