"Fellow Daoist Yingwu, it’s been many years. Your cultivation aura seems even more robust than before," Song Wen said, making small talk.

"Silence!" Ying Wu’s voice was soft. "Don’t disturb them."

Song Wen’s lips twitched slightly as he turned his gaze back to the two demon beasts in the pit.

"Forgive my bluntness, but they aren’t of the same species. Even if they manage to mate successfully, they shouldn’t be able to produce offspring, should they?" Song Wen transmitted his thoughts.

Bai Wei’s eyes remained fixed on the two demon beasts throughout.

"I’ve replaced their reproductive organs with those of a Prison Mountain Giant Ape. Moreover, I’ve administered ten times the usual dose of aphrodisiac."

A flicker of surprise crossed Song Wen’s eyes.

A Flood Dragon and an eagle, combined with the organs of a Prison Mountain Giant Ape.

If such a union were to truly produce offspring, what kind of monstrous creature would result?

A Flood Dragon with wings and sharp claws?

An eagle covered in scales?

Or perhaps a giant ape with the head of an eagle and the body of a snake?

The mating of the two demon beasts was nothing short of... earth-shattering, shaking the entire island. Fortunately, the stone pit had clearly been reinforced by Ying Wu through some means, enduring their destructive embrace.

After more than two hours, perhaps due to the waning effects of the medicine, the two beasts finally quieted down, each collapsing in a corner of the pit to recover their strength.

"Fellow Daoist Yingwu, I apologize for this presumptuous visit..."

Seeing the beasts finally finished, Song Wen attempted to break the ice with a clichéd greeting.

"Enough with the pleasantries."

Ying Wu grabbed Song Wen and dragged him toward the western side of the island.

They flew at lightning speed, the white mist whipping past their faces.

Song Wen, unable to resist, was pulled along by Ying Wu.

"Where are we going?"

"The Cooling Pavilion!"

"Didn’t you say it was ’mediocre’ last time?"

"Let’s try again. Perhaps this time will be different."

Song Wen rubbed his still-sore lower back and suddenly felt a pang of regret.

Regret for miscalculating, for acting so rashly.

He shouldn’t have immediately devoured the demon beasts’ Thunder Art Talent after Bai Wei left. Even worse, he shouldn’t have rushed to find Ying Wu without delay after absorbing the talent.

Though the path ahead remained arduous, Song Wen had no choice but to steel himself and press onward.

Clinging to the green mountains, unyielding, my roots are firmly planted in the shattered rock.

Through a thousand trials and ten thousand blows, I remain steadfast, indifferent to the winds from all directions.

His physical body was strong, his will iron-clad.

Yet, he couldn’t withstand... Ying Wu, like those two demon beasts, had consumed a tenfold dose of the drug, her desires insatiable...

Twelve days later.

Song Wen staggered back, his legs trembling, and sank onto a stone bench.

"How was this one?"

Ying Wu lay sprawled across the stone table, her peach-blushed skin glistening with droplets of water—it was unclear whether from the crashing waves that splashed against the island’s shore or from her own profuse, fragrant sweat.

"Barely acceptable."

Ying Wu slid off the table, her lotus-like feet landing softly on the damp ground. She pulled on a robe, hastily tying the sash at her waist, and sat opposite Song Wen.

"Get to the point. Why did you seek me out?"

Song Wen flipped his hand, producing a jade box that floated toward Ying Wu. "I brought you spirit grass."

Ying Wu accepted the box with a puzzled expression. When she opened it, her eyes suddenly blazed with light. "So many Bodhi Spirit Cores! Where did you get them all? And one is a thousand-year-old specimen!"

"I promised to find you more Bodhi Spirit Cores, and I couldn’t break my word. To obtain these Spirit Herbs, I spent a fortune in spirit stones and was even ambushed, nearly losing my life," Song Wen said, his expression still lingering with fear.

Ying Wu seemed surprised that obtaining the Bodhi Spirit Cores had been so difficult. Her eyes widened in astonishment, and then a rare tenderness flickered across her features.

"Thank you."

Ying Wu brushed back a stray strand of her black hair and continued.

"Since returning from Crimson Cloud Province, I’ve been constantly pondering how to solve the problem of the Dragon Void Vine’s inability to reproduce. After carefully considering your insights on the matter, I realized they weren’t unreasonable. I then tried to find more Bodhi Spirit Cores, but they aren’t available in the Southern Nether Continent. These dozens of cores you’ve brought me have resolved a major obstacle."

"I’m glad I could help. Just... next time, don’t say things like ’barely acceptable’ or ’so-so’," Song Wen replied.

Ying Wu’s gaze shifted, lingering on Song Wen’s still-unclothed lower abdomen.

"Actually... they’re quite decent."

Song Wen pouted. Better not to mention this at all!

He couldn’t help but think to himself: After recovering and gathering strength, I’ll try again!

There’s no reason why everyone else should be satisfied while I’m the only one left wanting.

"The Azure Flame Sect of Crimson Cloud Province, in alliance with major sects from Crimson Cloud and Southern Nether Provinces, is repairing a formation that leads to the Western Rong Continent. You must be aware of this, right?" Song Wen asked.

"Of course, I am," Ying Wu replied.

As if struck by a sudden thought, her expression turned surprised, and she asked, "Are you planning to use that teleportation array to go to the Western Rong Continent? Don’t forget, Daoist Wenxuan was the sect leader of the Azure Flame Sect, and he died at our hands. Years ago, Daoist Yongyuan, a Great Ascension Stage elder of the Azure Flame Sect, came to the Myriad Swords Pavilion demanding we hand over the killer. Fortunately, the sect protected me, and after compensating them with a large quantity of spiritual materials, Daoist Yongyuan left in displeasure. If you still want to use that teleportation array now, aren’t you courting death?"

Song Wen said, "I have my own methods to make the Azure Flame Sect unable to recognize me as one of the killers."

Ying Wu’s eyes lit up. "Can you teach me your method? I also want to go to the Western Rong Continent. There should be many demon beasts there that don’t exist on the Eastern Profound Continent."

"No," Song Wen said, shaking his head slightly. "As for the reasons, I cannot explain."

Disappointment flickered across Ying Wu’s face, but she didn’t press further.

"Fellow Daoist Yingwu," Song Wen said, "I can evade the Azure Flame Sect’s surveillance, but I cannot escape the encirclement of the demon beasts on the Western Rong Continent. Do you know of any method to transform me into a demon form and imbue me with a demon beast’s aura?"

Ying Wu didn’t answer immediately. After a moment of thought, she replied, "I do have a method that can meet your needs. However, I have a request."

"I am grateful for your assistance, Fellow Daoist," Song Wen said. "Whatever your request, please state it freely."

"Once you reach the Western Rong Continent, you must help me capture some demon beasts that do not exist on the Eastern Profound Continent," Ying Wu said.

"Even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have done so anyway," Song Wen replied.

"Good. I haven’t misjudged you," Ying Wu said, her lips curving into a crescent smile and her eyes narrowing into crescent moons. "Put on your clothes. I’ll show you something. But be prepared—this method will require you to endure some hardship."

Song Wen followed her instructions and dressed himself.

Then, led by Ying Wu, he approached the edge of one of the island’s many pits.

At the bottom of the pit lay a centipede-like demon beast.

This creature had ten pairs of legs along its abdomen and was about ten feet long. Its entire body was covered in a thick, dark brown carapace.
