“Eat slowly, don’t choke!”

Yin Shi, somewhat surprised, watched her son, who was holding a large bowl and whose chopsticks were swinging so fast they left after-images. She urged him with a smile, as being able to eat was a good thing.

“There’s more in the pot!”

“Mhm!”

Feng Qing’an responded casually, his mouth full of food, continuing to eat without slowing down.

He had no choice — he was really hungry now. The feedback from Black Mountain wasn’t obvious at first, but after several continuous sessions, it finally resulted in a dramatic change in him.

The most noticeable change was his drastically increased appetite – he even ate more than Feng Shouli, who worked the fields.

However, his parents seemed quite pleased with this change. As they say, it’s just like a teenager eating his parents out of house and home.

In their view, it was time for Feng Qing’an to grow, and since their family was well-off, they had plenty of food. Yin Shi even became more generous, slaughtering chickens and ducks every now and then.

Of course, she didn’t have to do the slaughtering herself. Feng Qing’an was more than happy to do it for her. Practicing the “Condensing Spirit Bone Tempering Skill” required the sacrifice of these poultry.

“Oh, that dog of yours named Black Mountain, why hasn’t it been seen these past few days?”

Feng Shouli casually asked at the dinner table.

The absence of the intimidating wolfhound from the open yard made people suddenly miss it, it was a bit unusual. “Oh, Black Mountain, it’s off courting she-wolves in the mountains!”

Feng Qing’an playfully replied.

That was half true, half false, Black Mountain was certainly in the mountains, but it wasn’t courting any females. Now, barely half a year old, it didn’t have much interest in she-wolves. On the contrary, it was the female wolves who couldn’t help but be drawn to him.

“Quit messing around, you’ll be marrying soon and you can’t even speak properly. Your dog is still so young, and you’re saying it’s finding a mate!”

Yin Shi naturally didn’t take Feng Qing’an’s words seriously. She thought he was joking.

“Know where it is? Then hurry up and bring it back. Don’t let it run around outside. If it becomes wild, you won’t be able to manage it.”

“Got it!”

With that, the topic of Black Mountain was concluded. As the family business grew, both of them were often away and spent little time at home, so they only

got accustomed to BlaCK IVIounta1n’S presence wltnout naving mucn or an emotional attachment to it.

After dinner, Feng Qing’an helped clean up and then returned to his bedroom. He couldn’t wait to get onto his bed and, using the “Sending God Skill”, eagerly projected his consciousness onto Black Mountain.

For three days straight, Black Mountain has been staying in the mountains without returning. Most of its time was spent in a tiger’s den, consuming and digesting Ink Jade Spirit Grass that enhanced its potential.

When Feng Qing’an’s consciousness arrived, Black Mountain was already spirited. It had evidently managed to pull through the intense transformations following its fifth consumption of Spirit Grass.

“How do you feel?”

Feng Qing’an asked, casually pulling up a panel to check Black Mountain’s information. [First Soul Contract: Black Mountain]

[Race: Wolfhound]

[Attributes: Demon, Beast]

[Potential Level: War General • Low Grade]

[Combat Level: Spirit Awakening Mid Grade]

In just three days and nights, having nearly cleaned out all the Spirit Grass in

Springinous at the cost of leaving behind only three tiny shoots, Black Mountain’s potential had dramatically increased, reaching a level equivalent to that of the tiger demon.

Although its combat level wasn’t upgraded, in reality, there was a slight increase in Black Mountain’s strength. This was especially apparent to Feng Qing’an, who could feel every enhancement made to Black Mountain.

Black Mountain let out a low howl and glanced at the few surviving Spirit Grass at Springinous with no trace of the desire and urge it had three days ago.

Feng Qing’an understood why. The potential offered by Spirit Grass had its limits. The effect of the first consumption was the most prominent, allowing Black Mountain’s potential to jump from mid-grade to high-grade.

However, after Black Mountain fully digested the Spirit Grass, it found that its attraction to the grass greatly decreased, although it still had the urge and desire to eat it.

But the second time it swallowed a piece of grass, the dramatic change that signified transformation weakened, and the time shortened. In the few times that followed, Black Mountain increased its consumption rate.

Even so, the Spirit Grass was no longer attractive to Black Mountain as it used to be. This would explain why there were still so many Spirit Grasses in this tiger den. After consuming a certain amount, it lost interest.

“I don’t know how long it takes for this grass to grow. If it doesn’t take long, perhaps we could use it to cultivate a wolf pack!”

Looking at the three frail grass sprouts, Feng Qing’an couldn’t help but think. However, he also knew he was daydreaming.

If spiritual items could regrow like wheat in the field, Black Mountain wouldn’t need to cross several tens of miles and not encounter a single demon beast.

However, he can look forward to the spiritual items that grow elsewhere on Green Python Mountain.

If such good fortune could be found in a small tiger den, the rest of the mountain must also harbor some. Deeper into the mountain, there might be more precious materials with their own particular uses and values.

Finding spiritual plants that concentrated the mountain’s spiritual essence, according to Feng Qing’an, shouldn’t be difficult. All sensible demon beasts would occupy areas around these plants.

So, finding the demon beasts in the mountain would probably lead to finding spiritual items.

Ordinarily, you would have to defeat the demon beast guarding the spiritual item to obtain it.

Three days ago, Black Mountain was noticed by a tiger demon lurking deeper in the mountain, even though it was merely roaming around the outskirts of the mountain. It almost lost its life because of that encounter.

With such weak strength that even self-preservation required hoping for good luck, seeking treasures deep in the mountain and provoking those long-living demon beasts was simply courting death.

Even if Black Mountain has now undergone a complete transformation, it doesn’t have the qualifications to fight the demon beasts in the mountain for their spiritual items. Its own strength is far from enough.

But, Feng Qing’an’s book bag is still hanging on Black Mountain’s back. That is the root of Black Mountain’s confidence and capital. The tiger demon was killed almost instantaneously when it came close to Black Mountain, which illustrates just how devastating this can be to other demon beasts in the mountain.

“Black Mountain, do you want to visit the other areas in the mountains?

Feng Qing’an’s voice echoed in Black Mountain’s consciousness with a touch of humor. Black Mountain responded with an excited howl and even made a suggestion of its own.

It wanted to bring the wolf pack along. Although they were wild animals, Black Mountain only needed to be cautious of other wild animals in the mountain. Other demon beasts no longer posed a threat.

Couldn’t it, who was carrying the teachings of the Confucian School and who was protected by an upright and resolute character, bully a few wild beasts amidst these unseen threats if it cannot defeat a centuries-old demon beast?

It, who carried the Confucian classics and was protected by a righteous force, was destined to be invincible in the mountains tonight..
