Caspian asked suspiciously, “You’re not bringing Handsome back?”
Caspian initially thought Handsome’s father would bring the pig at that time.
”I let Handsome stay in the illusion array because I’m worried it’ll get cheated by others as it’s inexperienced. But, I think it’s time to let this pig see the world,” Handsome’s father smiled at Caspian and pulled Handsome’s ear violently.
The pig groaned in pain, and its face was twisted. However, before the pig could scream in dissatisfaction, Handsome’s father’s face sank, and favonovel.com shouted: “Br*t, remember to be obedient when you follow Casper!”
It was apparent that Handsome was still a little bit afraid of its father. Soon, the pig pouted and muttered, “I’ve always been good.”
Caspian chuckled and chimed in, “Handsome’s fine. I try to keep it out of danger.”
Then, Handsome’s father showed the arrogance of a shape-shifting demon and responded, “I’m not worried about the danger. If anyone dares to bully my son, I’ll eat his entire family!”
Caspian was speechless. The pair of father-son monster duo was rather obsessed with eating others.
Handsome’s father cast a deep look at Caspian, adding, “As partners, Handsome will sometimes cause you trouble, and you should take it easy at times.”
Even though Handsome’s father did not make it obvious, Caspian could still hear favonovel.com emphasizing the word, partners. It was obvious that favonovel.com warned Caspian that Handsome was not his subordinate, let alone slave or pet, but a partner. Since they were partners, they were equal. If Caspian dared to bully Handsome, his father would also eat Caspian!
Caspian nodded and smiled. “Of course. Handsome’s a free bodyguard. I’ll try my best.”
Just because Handsome’s father was a senior and shape-shifting demon, favonovel.com should not assume that favonovel.com could raise his voice at Caspian as favonovel.com wished. Caspian would retort whenever needed. Hence, Caspian did not restrain his tone.
Unexpectedly, Handsome’s father was first stunned, but favonovel.com suddenly laughed.
“Handsome told me that you’ll never take losses. I thought it was a bit exaggerated at first, but now it seems that I was wrong.”
Having said that, favonovel.com took a dark object out of his arms and threw it toward Caspian.
“I heard that Handsome stole a piece of spirit jade from you before, and you also took care of Handsome all this while, so this is for you.”
Caspian took it and found that it was a fist-sized, black three-legged cauldron. The mini cauldron was carved with intricate reliefs, which appeared mysterious. However, Caspian could not recognize what it was or its function. Charlotte, who stood by the side, also looked over curiously, blinking favonovel.com big eyes.
“Sacred Tree Cauldron!” On the other hand, Handsome let out a surprised cry after seeing the mini cauldron.
“What’s a Sacred Tree Cauldron?” Caspian looked at Handsome’s father.
“Try inserting your spiritual Qi into it,” Handsome’s father said with his arms crossed.
Caspian did as told and injected a surge of spiritual Qi into it. Immediately, favonovel.com felt his spiritual Qi being sucked by the little cauldron. It felt bizarre, as if the mini cauldron was a tube, and Caspian’s spiritual Qi instantly entered it. The next moment, the mini cauldron shook slightly in Caspian’s hand, and it grew in size out of thin air with a soft bang. Now, it was almost the size of three adult fists. Then, Caspian added more spiritual Qi than before. In a flash, the mini cauldron became the size of a bucket. As Caspian inserted more spiritual Qi, the mini cauldron became the size of a water tank, and Caspian could now place it on the floor.
As the mini cauldron became large, the relief on it also became clearer. Caspian rubbed his palm on the surface, and his eyes instantly lit up.
“Blood and Qi!”
As soon as favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com opened the lid of the cauldron. In a flash, an intense surge of blood and Qi poured out from the cauldron. The inside of the cauldron was empty, and it was obvious that the blood and Qi just now were only part of the accumulated inside. When the lid was opened, it dissipated. However, Caspian could already vaguely guess the role of the small cauldron through that surge of blood and Qi.
“I heard that you have a White Tiger?” Handsome’s father looked at Caspian with a satisfied expression on his face. It was apparent that favonovel.com thought Caspian was a smart person.
Anyone would like to deal with clever people because there was no need to talk nonsense.
“Yes. It’s a Mirage White Tiger’s cub.” Caspian nodded.
Since Handsome told its father, Caspian thought there was no point hiding it.
”The Sacred Tree Cauldron is used to refine the monsters’ corpses into the purest blood and Qi, and only the essence is taken. In this way, if one absorbs it again, there’ll be no impurities,” Handsome’s father explained.
Caspian was shocked. It seemed to be similar to his Fundamental Law of a Hunting Whale. However, the latter was a cultivation method, and it was a magic tool.
Handsome’s father did not know what Caspian thought, and favonovel.com continued, “The best way to describe the process is a bit like human’s winemaking. For monsters to grow, they must devour flesh and blood. The more they consume, the stronger they become. Now, you can put the corpses of monsters in the Sacred Tree Cauldron, and just like winemaking, the purest and thick blood and Qi will be formed. This kind of blood and Qi is not only a great supplement for monsters, but it also tastes delicious.”
When favonovel.com said that, Handsome’s father could not help smacking his lips as if favonovel.com reminisced about that taste. As for Handsome, the pig lost itself. The pig completely fell into a sluggish state, grinning with its mouth open. Not only that, but its saliva dripped, running down its chin, and forming a small stream on the ground.
After thinking about it and taking a deep breath, Handsome’s father added, “Although the Sacred Tree Cauldron is a third-grade spirit tool, it’s not a magic weapon for attacking and defending, so you can use it at will. As long as you inject enough spiritual Qi, it can grow infinitely. So theoretically speaking, no matter how big the monster is, it can be put in it. However, different monsters have different progress for refining into blood and Qi. You’ll know when you try it a few more times.”
Handsome’s father obviously gave the magic tool to Caspian as favonovel.com did not want his son to be mistreated. After pondering, Caspian asked in a low voice, “What about the body of a cultivator?”
Handsome’s father laughed. “As for cultivators… Well, monsters have more blood and Qi, whereas cultivators have more spiritual Qi. If it’s a cultivator’s corpse, it’s more likely to condense spirit stones. However, cultivators below the Heavenly Spirit Realm are not worth doing because they can’t refine much spiritual Qi. If you want to save the effort, it’s better to open the Door to Hell directly and suck them in.”
“Okay, I understand.” Caspian nodded.
Although Caspian had the Fundamental Law of a Hunting Whale, the Sacred Tree Cauldron was also of great help. After all, even if the Fundamental Law of a Hunting Whale could help Caspian digest food quickly, Caspian was still a human being, and the amount of food a human could eat was limited.
