“Black Mountain?!”

Feng Qing’an, who was still left with some energy despite being greatly overwhelmed by the feedback force, could therefore feel the agony Black Mountain was experiencing at this moment.

Suffering myriad stabs and slashes, undergoing bone-shattering pain

All these could not describe the torment that Black Mountain was enduring, and he could feel how hard it was for it to make even a single wail of pain.

Under the force of the Shedding Mortality Pill, its muscles, skin, bones, blood, and even its soul were undergoing intense and rapid changes. Its body was being crushed and then reshaped in the process.

A mortal body ascending to the realm of the great demons in one step, this was the pain it had to endure.

“Hold on!”

All Feng Qing’an could provide at this moment was moral support. He couldn’t alleviate the pain brought about by this transformation. This was a metamorphosis that could only be endured through the will of the Guardian Beast itself.

Feng Qing’an stayed awake throughout the night, sticking with Black Mountain. As the feedback power continued to strengthen, he could feel more acutely the pain Black Mountain was enduring.

Just before the break of dawn, Black Mountain’s transformation was finally complete. It emerged from the black mist that had enveloped it since it swallowed the Spiritual Pills, while being watched by hundreds of wolves in the valley.

After that, a strange yet familiar looking huge black wolf appeared amidst the receding black mist. Its pitch-black pelt clung tightly to its robust skeleton, making it look as if it was on the brink of death.

However, the aura it now exuded made even the strongest Ghost-eye Wolf King kneel on the ground, without any intention to compete or resist.

Roar-

The newly transformed Black Mountain let out a low roar. Only then did the wolf pack in the valley confirm that the wolf standing before them was their king. Even though it looked drastically different, some things remained the same.

Subsequently, freshly hunted blood meals from outside the valley were offered to the severely depleted Black Mountain, which eagerly devoured them.

Its shriveled body started to visibly fill out as it ate, and its vitality gradually increased, quickly surpassing its previous peak, and reached a new realm.

Once Black Mountain had finished its meal, a somewhat thin, ferocious black wolf stood in front of the wolf pack. Its massive figure, standing nearly a meter tall on all fours, made all the wolves feel genuine awe.

The violent black Demon Qi also surged up at this moment, stirring up the falling snow in the valley. Temporarily, this unique Demon Qi caught the attention of numerous mighty spirits in the mountains.

However, some exploratory gazes filled with malice quickly turned away when they perceived the subtle green divine light mixed within the Demon Qi. They did not dare to harbor any further thoughts, as it was far beyond their capacity to upset.

At this moment, Feng Qing’an also checked on Black Mountain’s status.

“[First Soul Contract: Black Mountain]”

“[Species: Ghost Wolf]” “[Attributes: Demon, Beast]” “[Potential Rank: High-class Lord]” “[Combat Rank: Mid-class War General]”

“Great Demon Potential!”

Feng Qing’an could not conceal his joy at that moment. He had already witnessed just how terrifying a great demon could be when it grew up. Black Mountain could also grow to that extent if he spent some time helping it dig out its potential. How could he not be overjoyed by this?

This is so great!

Even though its strength hadn’t increased much, its potential had risen substantially. Feng Qing’an was beyond satisfied. Without further remarks, a familiar voice echoed in his mind at that moment.

“[Hidden Achievement Task: Transformation]”

“[Task requirements: Boost the potential of your beast pet by one big rank level, to achieve a leap in growth]” “[Reward: Search Privilege, once!][Description]”

“A hidden task, with only one reward?”

Feng Qing’an found it hard to believe when he saw the reward for completing the hidden achievement task. However, once he read the instruction, he understood why there was only one reward.

“[Search Privilege: Within the range of any location the Beast Tamer can currently reach or touch, the privilege searches for the most suitable beast pet for the Beast Tamer based on low combat power and high potential.]”

“No wonder it’s just once,” Feng Qing’an then realized. If such a privilege could be activated infinitely, he could save a lot of effort and lay back to enjoy life.

During this period, he had sent Black Mountain to countless places to find a suitable beast pet. He had encountered hundreds of monsters, but most of them didn’t meet his standard. However, those that did captivate him were almost impossible to acquire.

This was Feng Qing’an’s current situation. Those within his reach did not appeal to him, while those he desired were almost impossible to get.

And now, with the Spiritual Pills given by the Lady, Black Mountain underwent a transformation, triggered a hidden achievement, and received a one-time achievement reward, just what he needed.

“Search, execute!”

Without investigating further the changes in Black Mountain — considering it was still feeding and hunting down in the valley — Feng Qing’an impatiently tried to apply the Search Privilege.

“[Authority activated, searching in progress, please wait!]”

“[A suitable beast pet for the Beast Tamer detected]”

However, before Feng Qing’an could celebrate, he received another message:

“[Current time node location of the Beast Tamer is incorrect, unable to enter the Hidden Realm]”

“[Please wait patiently for the correct time node to arrive! l”

“What do you mean the time node is incorrect?”

Feng Qing’an frowned, feeling as if he was being toyed with. This was not what he had anticipated.

“So, what would be considered the correct time?”

“Damn it!”

Feng Qing’an mumbled to himself. However, he waited for a while and heard no further instructions. Frustrated, he got up impatiently. This time, the system didn’t provide any explanation.

With his experience, Feng Qing’an didn’t have much of a mind to explore the changes that happened to Black Mountain. As for Black Mountain, it too was in the process of exploring and understanding the changes. But one thing was certain, the moment it completed its transformation, it was no longer a lowly demon. It now had a bloodline legacy.

In the evening, after taking care of his daily chores and routine practice, Feng Qing’an checked again on Black Mountain’s status. It was still sorting out the bloodline legacy coming from its Ghost Wolf lineage, unable to make heads or tails of it.

Feng Qing’an, seeing this, didn’t inquire further. The bloodline legacy of the Demon Clan was obviously unsuitable for him. Therefore, he just dozed off. Sleep, for him, was a form of adjustment and enjoyment.

When the night deepened and the bright moon hung high in the center of the firmament, radiating its pure light, and when Yin Qi in the world reached its peak, it was midnight, the hour when ghosts and spirits roamed around. “[The Beast Tamer has reached the correct time node]”

“[Hidden Realm – Underworld Realm – 6th Level – 72 detected, passage has been opened!]”

“[Linking to the Hidden Realm…]”

The aggravating voice made Feng Qing’an toss and turn in his bed in annoyance.. Then he suddenly opened his eyes…
