CHAPTER 363: 265 KILL THE PEAK!

"Woo~" After just over ten minutes, accompanied by a soft moan, a hollow bamboo shoot was poked open with a hole.

Still needing that golden tail tip, which gradually split open the bamboo shoot, she moved with grace, stepping out elegantly.

If Du Yu hadn’t reminded her through the Contract to stay quiet, Xiaoyan would have already let out a triumphant cry.

Stage advancement, full recovery!

This feeling is beyond what ordinary people could ever imagine.

The dead dog from just over ten minutes ago has turned back into the noble and stunning Prince Yan!

Du Yu was filled with joy, gazing dumbly at the Fire Fox in the distance.

This was his first Demon Pet, and has always been the one he could trust the most.

At this moment, just as Du Yu was feeling a bit lost about the second phase of the trial, Xiaoyan’s advancement was no doubt a shot of confidence for him.

"See, I told you, Xiaoyan is about to catch up to you." Du Yu’s head sank gently into Bai Yujing’s fur. He turned his head slightly, but his eyes were reluctant to leave the beautiful fox.

Bai Yujing: "..."

She gazed into the distance at the three-tailed Fire Fox, and had to admit, this little fox... got even more dazzling.

"Ying~" Sensing her owner’s attention, Xiaoyan turned her head to look.

In a flash!

The fiery red figure darted like a phantom, appearing straight in front of Du Yu’s eyes.

Du Yu still had one arm hugging the Ghost Firefly, and with the other, he scooped up Yan Ruyu.

Scumbag Rule Number One: Carrying Water!

No matter how much Du Yu wanted to hold Xiaoyan with both hands, there’s absolutely no way he’d let go of the Little You Ying curled up in his arms!

At this thought, Du Yu leaned his head back and rubbed against Bai Yujing’s snow-white fur again, worried she might feel left out.

This king came to the Demon Taming World for only three things!

Carrying water! Carrying water!

And damn it! Carrying water!

"Now that there are no more Level restraints, with your understanding of Demon Skills, your output should be even stronger, right?" Du Yu reached out and scratched Xiaoyan’s chin.

"Ying~" Xiaoyan closed her eyes, lifting her little head in delight.

"Xiaoyan?"

Xiaoyan finally turned her head, and a Spark Splash began gathering in front of her face.

Its size grew bigger and bigger, 37cm, 38cm, 39cm...

Under Du Yu’s delighted gaze, a fireball of 40cm in diameter appeared right there!

Just so you know, the top-tier Glory Gold·Spark Splash only reaches a diameter of 30cm.

Xuan Platinum·Spark Splash ranges from 31cm to 40cm diameter, which means— even within the Xuan Platinum Quality Demon Skill, Xiaoyan’s output is maxed out!

It’s enough to tank through a Spirit Level·Peak Stage Demon Beast Battle Robe!

Truly worthy of a Heterochromatic Demon Pet, and of little Hu Xiaoyan touched by the Ancient Golden Crow.

No matter her Intelligence Attribute or Demon Power Attribute, her understanding and mastery of Demon Skills is absolutely freakish!

At this moment, Du Yu was filled with endless confidence!

"Retract it, don’t let it go off, we’re being sneaky here," Du Yu whispered.

"Ying~" Hu Xiaoyan responded softly, and the fireball in front of her quickly shrank.

"Come on, let’s try Fox Tail Flowing Flame now." Du Yu picked up Hu Xiaoyan and climbed towards the cliffside.

While the teammates were still resting, Du Yu took Xiaoyan to rack up some points first!

One trainer with multiple pets, training while waiting—in no time at all, it was already sunset.

Slowly, the first bamboo shoot silently bloomed open.

Little Tai Sui, leaning on a bamboo stick, took a step and walked out.

Du Yu turned to look behind him: "You’re done?"

"Ying~" Little Tai Sui lightly tapped the ground with his bamboo stick, and one by one the giant bamboo shoots on the field cracked and vanished, revealing the figures inside.

Lin Shiwei, who had been meditating cross-legged, opened her eyes at once. The exhaustion on her face was completely gone, and she even looked... re-energized?

Not far to Lin Shiwei’s left, Li Mengnan was curled up with her long legs, snuggled up and sleeping soundly with a pitiful look.

Lin Shiwei didn’t disturb her at all. She stood up, stretched her body a bit, feeling deeply moved.

The effect of the hollow bamboo shoot is actually this powerful!

Worthy of the Chi Bear Race...

In this world, Demon Pets with healing abilities to rival the Heaven Returning Wood are few and far between!

"Du Yu, you should get in a hollow bamboo shoot and rest too." She stepped forward, speaking softly.

Du Yu shook his head and said in a low voice, "I’ve recovered pretty well. While there’s still light, we’d better check out the enemy situation and find the target location the library mapped out.

The stone pile over there hasn’t budged an inch—no one knows what the mountaintop will be like after dark.

If a fight is unavoidable, it’s still better to have it in daylight."

Lin Shiwei thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"Go wake Mengnan." With that, Du Yu licked his dry lips.

It’s a pity, the three-person squad doesn’t have a Water Element Demon Beast. Up till now, not a drop of water has been had.

Of course, a Water Element Demon Beast can only solve thirst.

If we really want to fix the logistics issue once and for all...

I wonder if there are Space Bags, Spatial Bags, or similar Ancient Spiritual Artifacts?

Since Spiritual Artifacts are about on par with Magical Artifacts, with their towers, gourds, and flutes, then there’s gotta be storage-type magical artifacts, right?

So many fantasy novels write it this way~

The immortals just wave their sleeves and can tuck away a whole world, maybe even trap enemies in their own pocket universe!

Du Yu was having a beautiful daydream over here.

Meanwhile, Lin Shiwei copied Master Qing’s gestures, crossing her index and middle fingers, and flicked Li Mengnan’s cheek lightly.

"Tap~"

"Mm?" Li Mengnan opened sleep-dazed eyes, looking up in confusion.

Her third sister teased her with an impish smile: "Wake up."

"Mmm~" Li Mengnan made a nasal sound, stretched viciously, "So comfy! These bamboo shoots work wonders."
