Sect Master's Immortal Journey

Chapter 153: Spirit Pet

As for that little milk cat, it is Hu Jing's hidden trump card. Back then, Meng Zhang bought several pairs of mountain patrol dogs from Singing Sand City and gave them to Hu Jing to practice the art of controlling beasts. After Hu Jing tamed these pairs of mountain patrol dogs, they were used to guard and patrol the mountain gate, proving to be very useful.

Encouraged by this success, Hu Jing bought several pairs of demon cats from the market. Although the shop selling the demon cats boasted about their extraordinary bloodlines, including the heritage of the Shadow Fiend Cat and the Shape-Shifting Demon Cat, in reality, these demon cats were just the most basic demon beasts with unremarkable bloodlines. In terms of combat power, they were only slightly stronger than ordinary mortals.

Hu Jing domesticated these demon cats and placed them in the spirit field to hunt mice and other small pests, saving the spirit farmers a lot of effort. The little milk cat is one of the offspring of a female cat among them. For some unknown reason, it happened to appear here at this time.

Meng Zhang couldn't help but feel a bit amazed. Emperor's Flowing Elixir was a spiritual object that even great demons fought for incessantly. However, the result of his creation of that thing, which had some of the effects of Emperor's Flowing Elixir, ended up in the bellies of these two little creatures. It was truly a strange twist of fate.

Meng Zhang had always wanted to raise a spirit pet. Spirit pets had various wonderful uses for cultivators and often proved to be of great assistance. However, Meng Zhang had high standards, and many demon beasts that seemed good enough didn't meet his criteria.

After all these years, he had not found a spirit pet that satisfied him. But now, as he looked at these two little beings, he felt a hint of temptation.

A cultivator could only keep a limited number of spirit pets. Rationally speaking, Meng Zhang shouldn't waste valuable spirit pet slots on these two useless and weak creatures. However, the usually clever and rational Meng Zhang was feeling a bit sentimental at this moment. He considered this night's events as fate and a fortunate chance.

Since embarking on the cultivation path, Meng Zhang increasingly understood the meaning of "Obeying Heaven to Suit Humans." Now, he was determined to follow his inner desire and be a bit impulsive for once.

Meng Zhang activated the Deception Breaking Eye and carefully observed the two little creatures once again. The little milk cat remained just a little milk cat, cute but essentially useless. Unfortunately, it was not born in a world where cuteness was justice.

As for the little bird, it seemed to be a type of bird similar to a hummingbird. Its most significant feature was its lightning-fast flight speed and incredibly agile movements. In the air, even a Foundation Building stage cultivator would find it difficult to catch without special magic tools or techniques.

Originally, Meng Zhang wanted to give them nice names, but due to his difficulty in naming things, he thought for a while and couldn't unexpectedly come up with a satisfactory name. He temporarily set the problem aside, as the two little creatures wouldn't wake up for a while anyway.

In the following days, Meng Zhang familiarized himself with his new cultivation realm and practiced various spells, such as refining the Solar True Flame and condensing the Lunar True Water, which he hadn't stopped working on.

Shortly after Meng Zhang broke through to the ninth level of Refining Qi, Yang Xueyi also successfully reached the seventh level of Refining Qi, becoming a Refining Qi late stage cultivator.

After observing and interacting with Yang Xueyi over the past two years, Meng Zhang felt that she was actively integrating herself into Taiyi Sect, and her performance was satisfactory, making her a trustworthy candidate for important tasks.

After discussing with Tian Zhen and Daoist Clear Spirit, Meng Zhang appointed Yang Xueyi as the Elder of the Talisman Hall, responsible for matters related to creating talismans in the sect. The Talisman Hall, which only existed in Meng Zhang's imagination, was waiting for Yang Xueyi to establish it.

In addition, after experiencing Yang Xueyi's culinary skills, the members of Taiyi Sect appointed her as the overall manager of the sect's kitchen.

As Yang Xueyi gradually integrated into Taiyi Sect and demonstrated her abilities, she gained higher authority within the sect. The various texts in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion would gradually be made available to her.

Over these two years, Taiyi Sect's affairs ran smoothly, and all its industries operated in an orderly manner. Most mundane tasks were handled by General Affairs Elder Tian Zhen, allowing Meng Zhang to focus on his cultivation undisturbed.

In a good mood, Meng Zhang's cultivation base steadily improved. He hoped that these peaceful days would continue indefinitely, allowing him to quietly cultivate within the sect without wandering outside.

However, peace and tranquility were not destined to last forever, as the world is full of unexpected events. Even if one tries to avoid trouble, it may still find them.

Just two days before the regular preaching of Deep Earth Spirit General, Jue Ying arrived at Taiyi Sect. Over the years, Jue Ying had visited Taiyi Sect several times and had become well acquainted with its members. Especially during the time of Deep Earth Spirit General's regular preaching, she often appeared without an invitation.

This time, Jue Ying came to Taiyi Sect not to listen to Deep Earth Spirit General's preaching but to address an urgent matter.

After meeting with Meng Zhang, she explained her purpose in a secluded room at a slow pace. Recently, the Green Bamboo Mountain sect had approached the black market to hire experts and annihilate Taiyi Sect completely.

Due to Jue Ying's connection, the black market politely refused Green Bamboo Mountain's request. After investigating the matter, they found out that Meng Zhang had hired Foundation Building stage experts from the black market to block Old Man Bamboo Stick and Elder Bamboo Spear during their last confrontation.

While unaware in the past, Green Bamboo Mountain now knew about this matter, and they had the means to influence the black market. They officially informed the black market not to continue providing assistance to Taiyi Sect in the conflict with Green Bamboo Mountain.

As a chaotic organization like the black market, its internal affairs were extremely complex. Relying on Luo Ye's influence, Jue Ying had a considerable amount of power inside, but she was still far from being able to manipulate everything in secret.

Although the black market appeared to operate in the shadows and stay aloof, many forces in the Cultivation World had ties to it, including Green Bamboo Mountain. There were hidden connections and secrets unknown to the public.

Green Bamboo Mountain was a powerful force with several Foundation Building stage cultivators, capable of rivaling Twin Success Valley. In contrast, Taiyi Sect was a small faction without even one Foundation Building stage cultivator.

Considering the situation, it was evident that the black market would lean toward Green Bamboo Mountain. Consequently, Jue Ying managed to secure an agreement from the black market to remain neutral in the upcoming conflict between Taiyi Sect and Green Bamboo Mountain.

Given Green Bamboo Mountain's strength, even without the support of the black market, they could easily wipe out Taiyi Sect. Without being able to hire reinforcements from the black market, Taiyi Sect's survival was uncertain.

Green Bamboo Mountain was already organizing their forces to launch a secret attack on Taiyi Sect.
