Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 630: Chapter 517: Guardian Spirit Beast_1

At this moment, True Monarch Fei Hu’s thoughts were not only filled with the past, where he and the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger before him had carved a path of prestige and dominance.

They also included the reality that, after his own cultivation broke through to the Golden Elixir Realm, the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger could no longer provide him with any significant help.

Once one’s cultivation stepped into the Golden Elixir Realm,

the once greatly helpful Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger became of limited help to him.

Even worse, it could become a burden; he had to divide his attention to protect the Spiritual Tiger while fighting with other Golden Elixir Masters.

Thus, to say that the Spiritual Tiger was dragging him down was not incorrect.

Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger.

Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger.

Ultimately, it was still just a Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger.

Glancing at the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger outside the small pavilion, True Monarch Fei Hu exhibited a complex expression, filled with deep sighs in his heart.

Back then, he and the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger cooperating to freely roam the lands—how exhilarating it was.

But now,

he had broken through to the Golden Core Realm, while the Spiritual Tiger was still stuck in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Under these circumstances, the once-powerful aid had quietly become a liability.

And now, it had even become a bargaining chip to persuade He Song to assist him.

This majestic Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger was still the same one, able to fight alongside him and as awe-inspiring as before.

Only… times had changed.

“So, it turns out that the origin of your dharma title, True Monarch Fei Hu, actually comes from this reason.”

“It seems that this Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger has indeed helped you a lot.”

“Now that the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger is still alive, you must have no regrets.”

“In the future, you just need to focus on nurturing this tiger, and perhaps one day it can reach the Golden Core Realm and once again become a great support for you.”

Hearing the words of True Monarch Fei Hu beside him, a hint of envy flashed across He Song’s face.

It wasn’t that he envied True Monarch Fei Hu for having a spirit beast by his side,

but rather, it was the speed at which this Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger’s cultivation was improving.

According to what True Monarch Fei Hu said, this Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger could always be of help to him within the Foundation Establishment Realm.

This naturally means that the cultivation breakthrough speed of this Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger might not be far off from True Monarch Fei Hu’s own breakthrough speed.

This couldn’t help but make He Song think of his own Yu’er.

Thinking of Yu’er’s cultivation speed, slow as a turtle crawl, the look of envy in He Song’s eyes towards True Monarch Fei Hu was unmistakably present.

If Yu’er’s cultivation speed could be as swift as this Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger’s,

He Song might have had such a powerful aid during his time in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Of course, it might also be possible that this Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger had always been more advanced in cultivation than True Monarch Fei Hu from the very beginning.

As True Monarch Fei Hu’s cultivation improved, the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger’s cultivation also increased.

So, when True Monarch Fei Hu reached the peak of Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, the Spiritual Tiger could still provide him a great deal of support.

However,

Regardless of which it was, True Monarch Fei Hu seemed very fortunate in He Song’s eyes.

Having a Foundation Establishment spirit beast that could help during the Foundation Establishment Realm, True Monarch Fei Hu could likely walk horizontally through that realm.

Such a being, if not encountering some Sect elites or He Song himself when he had already mastered the Golden Elixir Array in the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, would be hard to find a match for.

Perhaps, this was also why True Monarch Fei Hu was able to successfully step into the Golden Core Realm.

With various thoughts flashing through his mind, He Song’s gaze towards True Monarch Fei Hu still contained an unchanged hint of envy.

And it was precisely this look of envy in He Song’s eyes,

that made True Monarch Fei Hu, who had already prepared a draft in his mind to lament to He Song before asking for his help, felt a twinge of helplessness.

If He Song had sighed after hearing his words, lamenting something like the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger’s cultivation being too low to be of any help in the future,

he could naturally take advantage of the flow after lamenting and immediately ask He Song for assistance.

But now…

Seeing the envy in He Song’s eyes and hearing the sincere intent in his words advising him to diligently cultivate the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger,

a bad premonition suddenly flashed through True Monarch Fei Hu’s mind.

What kind of play is this man making?

Moreover, now that He Song had already spoken this way, how could he bring himself to ask He Song for help with the next steps?

True Monarch Fei Hu did not know that He Song also raised a spirit beast.

And the spirit beast He Song was nurturing was much more useless compared to his Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger.

From the moment Yu’er hatched to the present, it had essentially never offered any help to He Song.

Besides eating and sleeping, the only thing that occasionally brought He Song some peace of mind was that Yu’er could guard his home and make him feel less lonely.

Now, He Song had left Yu’er in his cave mansion within Green Moon Immortal State.

Yu’er, with just a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, could only guard He Song’s cave mansion.

As for the rest, He Song had no expectations.

Naturally, He Song envied the Foundation Establishment Spiritual Tiger, which could be of great help to True Monarch Fei Hu during his Foundation Establishment Realm days.

After hearing what He Song had said and seeing the growing envy in his gaze,

True Monarch Fei Hu opened his mouth intending to say something more, to recoup some ground.
