"Achieved enlightenment?" Lin Chen was surprised, then turned back to the Calamity-Devouring Beast and said, "Xiu Xiu, what kind of enlightenment did you achieve? Show me." The Calamity-Devouring Beast squinted its eyes and signaled Lin Chen to step back a bit. Lin Chen wondered if it had truly transformed, and then the Calamity-Devouring Beast opened its huge maw towards a distant rock... Then, something magical happened. The rock seemed to fly over on its own as if being sucked in. "No change in power, just the ability to attract objects from a distance," Bai Ling explained to Lin Chen after having tried it herself. Lin Chen was a bit dumbfounded. He had never heard of the Calamity-Devouring Beast having this ability before. It seemed that this Calamity-Devouring Beast truly had evolved. It looks opportunity was meant for the Calamity-Devouring Beast. "Bai Ling, do you still remember the appearance of that skeleton?" Lin Chen asked. Bai Ling scratched her head and said, "I remember some of it." Lin Chen was delighted, and Bai Ling picked up a stick and started drawing on the ground. However, as she drew, Lin Chen’s expression turned dark. Even though Bai Ling’s drawing seemed very true to life, it was impossible to tell what kind of Spirit Beast it was. But, a Demon Beast three to four hundred meters tall, even if it was drawn correctly, Lin Chen still wouldn’t recognize it. "Forget it." Lin Chen shook his head and gave up the idea of identifying it. He then asked, "Was there a tree in the moon there?" Bai Ling astonishingly replied, "And it’s always a moonlit night there, never daytime." Lin Chen secretly marveled upon hearing this. He actually wanted to go in and take a look, but obviously, he couldn’t. "It’s about time; we should prepare to head back." Lin Chen said. Bai Ling nodded in agreement. Actually, she didn’t cultivate much this time. The Red Feather Chicken was supposed to be the main benefactor, but it didn’t get the Spirit Spring’s benefits. However, outside, Bai Ling wasn’t short of Spirit Spring water either. Before leaving, Lin Chen pondered for a moment and finally said, "Bai Ling, try not to tell others about what happened inside." The fact that only Bai Ling could enter was strange in itself. Since Bai Ling couldn’t explain it, there was no need to broadcast it, which wouldn’t be beneficial for Bai Ling. "Okay." Bai Ling nodded but still asked, "Can I tell the teacher?" "Of course." Lin Chen nodded. Liu Gu had been very kind to them, especially to Bai Ling. "That’s good then." Bai Ling smiled happily upon seeing Lin Chen agree. She didn’t care about others, but she didn’t want to deceive Liu Gu since he treated her well. That day, Lin Chen prepared to return to the Spirit Academy. Unlike other students, Lin Chen didn’t need to go to the entrance; he just needed the Unicorn to open a space hole. Lin Chen had gained tremendously this time; Xiaobai had advanced to Level 3, the Little Fox had advanced to Level 4, and in the last ten days, the Little Fox also reached a bottleneck... This meant the Little Fox was about to reach Level 5 soon. Seeing the space hole open, the two of them, along with the Spirit Beasts, entered inside. Outside the Spirit Academy, Daoist Zhang had been watching. When he saw the suddenly appearing space hole, he naturally knew it was Lin Chen and his companions returning. "No mishaps this time?" Daoist Zhang asked. Bai Ling looked a bit guilty as she wasn’t good at lying, so Lin Chen promptly said, "Everything went smoothly." "That’s good." Daoist Zhang also breathed a sigh of relief. If these two troublemakers hadn’t caused any issues, then everything was probably fine. Thus, he said, "There’s nothing here, you can go find your mentor." Lin Chen and Bai Ling bowed and then left with their Spirit Beasts, hearing Daoist Zhang say, "Bring the Little Insect King over next time, we’ve found a place for it." Back at the Mentor Hall, Bai Ling excitedly rushed over and said, "Teacher, I’m back." Liu Gu was sorting out herbs and, seeing Bai Ling’s demeanor, scolded, "You’re a big girl now, you should pay attention to your image." "Teacher, you’ve never said this before." Bai Ling said. Liu Gu’s pupils revealed a hint of unease, and Lin Chen quickly interjected, "Teacher." Liu Gu looked at Lin Chen, nodded, glanced at the Spirit Beasts behind him, and said, "Looks like you’ve had a fruitful trip this time." Lin Chen also nodded, smiling, and said, "There are some things I’d like Teacher’s help on." "No rush," Liu Gu said, "After your long journey, take a day off; we can look at it tomorrow." "Alright." Lin Chen nodded. Liu Gu had anticipated their return and prepared a sumptuous dinner, and after finishing the meal, Lin Chen returned to his dorm. After half a year back in the dorm, the room was dusty, but Lin Chen and the Spirit Beasts still felt at peace. Although there were no Advanced Spirit Springs here, it was still a safe haven for them. Xiaobai and the Big White Bear started cleaning, and the Little Fox rushed toward the Coin Bank... After a busy time, they finally had some free time, and Lin Chen fell soundly asleep with the Spirit Beasts. This was also the most restful sleep they’ve had in half a year. The next day, after breakfast, Lin Chen set off to find Liu Gu. After returning this time, the next thing was the Beast Fighting Conference, and Lin Chen needed to ensure he had the necessary trump cards for the final reward. When he arrived, Bai Ling was letting the Calamity-Devouring Beast demonstrate its object-devouring ability, and Liu Gu was amazed, looking at Lin Chen, he asked, "Is what she says true?" Lin Chen nodded without hiding, explaining everything in detail. However, he didn’t say this in front of Bai Ling. Finally, he curiously asked, "Teacher, is there something unusual about Bai Ling?" "What do you mean by unusual?" Liu Gu, feeling guilty, raised his voice and said, "I think you’re just envious of her luck." Lin Chen noticed Liu Gu’s guilt but chose not to expose it, just smiling slightly. Liu Gu actually knew that, with Lin Chen’s sharpness, he had long seen through the issue. However, since the matter involved the National Preceptor, it was significant and could not be casually disclosed without permission from the National Master’s Institute and the upper echelons. Liu Gu didn’t want to continue on this topic, so he asked, "What did you want to ask about yesterday?" "It’s ..." Lin Chen first explained Xiaobai’s situation. Upon hearing this, Liu Gu was greatly surprised and said, "It’s always been difficult to cultivate the Barbaric Bloodline, yet it broke through again?" He nodded and said, "No worries, feel free to try." Then they went to the yard, and Liu Gu summoned his Spirit Beasts. Not all of Liu Gu’s Spirit Beasts were support-types; he also had a Combat System beast at Level 48, easily capable of suppressing Xiaobai. Lin Chen instructed Xiaobai, and Niu Niu felt a bit terrified. If the breakthrough this time was uncontrollable again, then this improvement would mean nothing. A controllable Tier Four Barbaric Bloodline and an uncontrollable Barbaric Bloodline are two entirely different Skills. Xiaobai roared, the energy in its bloodline surging, and soon its whole body flooded with red light. With the red light gradually transforming, finally settling in crimson, Xiaobai’s pupils also turned scarlet. At this moment, standing at a distance, Liu Gu could feel Xiaobai’s powerful aura.... In Liu Gu’s view, the Barbaric Bloodline truly was the most suitable Skill for Xiaobai. Xiaobai’s ability was to erupt, resolving battles instantly. It needed not multiple Skills, but to continually increase its explosive power. The Barbaric Bloodline elevated Xiaobai’s strength by more than ten levels. As Xiaobai’s Barbaric Bloodline gradually activated... This time, Xiaobai’s skin color was entirely different. Lin Chen began to feel a bit nervous... If this time, Xiaobai’s Barbaric Bloodline was still uncontrollable, then he would have to draft a new Spiritual Power training plan for Xiaobai. At the moment of worry, Xiaobai let out a moo, echoing through the entire yard. Lin Chen lifted his head in surprise, just in time to see Xiaobai meeting his gaze. Overjoyed, Lin Chen quickly asked, "Xiaobai, is this the Fourth Stage of the Barbaric Bloodline?" Xiaobai nodded its head, and Lin Chen’s anxious heart finally settled.... After this breakthrough, Xiaobai still managed to control the Barbaric Bloodline, which completely exceeded Lin Chen’s expectations. For origınal chapters go to 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝗇𝗲𝘵 To confirm this, Lin Chen tried two more times and finally relieved the burden in his heart. "Is there more?" Liu Gu also noticed Xiaobai’s improvement this time. The Fourth Stage Barbaric Bloodline was sure to make Xiaobai a dominant force at this Beast Fighting Conference. "Yes." Lin Chen gestured for the Little Fox to come forward and said, "There’s also the matter of the Little Fox." Liu Gu glanced at the Little Fox and heard Lin Chen say, "Its fourth Skill is Heart-Burning Fire Control." "Heart-Burning Fire Control..." Liu Gu didn’t understand at first, but when it sank in, he was stunned, "What? Heart-Burning Fire Control?!"
