The First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Spirit Storage Rat’s Promotion_1

Since obtaining the inheritance of the Barbarian Bull Venerable, the Spirit Storage Rat had been dormant until today!

If it weren’t for the Divine Sense inheritance that contained a part of the Barbarian Bull Venerable’s Origin Power, this little creature would likely have either starved to death or become so emaciated its form would have drastically changed.

How could it be as it was now, with its red fur glossy and vibrant, the single tuft of silly-looking pale golden hair on its head thick and rich, making it appear exceptionally dashing?

Its aura was also much stronger than before!

Of course, one look at its adorably silly, pea-green eyes and its chubby body, and that dashing impression vanished completely.

Anyone would think it was just a foolishly cute, plump rat!

At its urging, Shen Mo didn’t have time to examine it closely. He took out five kilograms (ten jin) of Millennial Python Dragon flesh and blood and roasted it into fragrant meat.

The Spirit Storage Rat drooled at the sight.

Before the roasted meat could cool, it snatched a piece of the Python Dragon meat with its slender paws and began to gnaw on it. CRUNCH, CRUNCH.

”Delicious... Delicious...”

”So delicious...”

This glutton is so adorably silly. Aside from eating, I probably can’t get anything else out of it. I might as well check its status myself.

While the Spirit Storage Rat was feasting, Shen Mo equipped the ”Monster Identify” Destiny.

A screen of luminous information materialized before his eyes.

[Monster Identify: Library]

[Silver Ring Demon Snake]

[Double-headed Silver Ring Python]

[Stone Spirit]

[Gold-devouring Rat]

[Red-browed Deer]

...

[Spirit Storage Rat]

[Millennial Python Dragon]

Shen Mo didn’t need information on the other demonic beasts. With a slight mental command, he focused on the detailed information for the Spirit Storage Rat.

[You are attempting to probe the information of a Class II middle-grade demonic beast, the Spirit Storage Rat. This will consume ten Lower Grade Spirit Stones.]

Good heavens, this glutton actually jumped straight from the peak of Class I to Class II middle-grade!

Truly worthy of the inheritance from a Class III peak great demon, the Barbarian Bull Venerable.

Overjoyed, Shen Mo quickly took out ten Spirit Stones and held them in his hand.

BUZZ!

With a flash of golden light, the Mana within the Spirit Stones was completely drained by the [Identify Library], turning them into residual powder that sifted through his fingers.

At the same time, Shen Mo also saw more detailed information about the Spirit Storage Rat.

[Demonic Beast: Spirit Storage Rat]

[Realm: Class II middle-grade]

[Description: This beast often mingles with Gold-devouring Rats but is no ordinary creature. It possesses a trace of an ancient, primordial bloodline and favors eating meat.

Due to atavistic regression of its bloodline, it possesses the Innate Divine Ability (Hiding), allowing it to ignore Prohibition Arrays. It excels at finding various treasures.

This beast has signed a Spirit Pet Contract with a disciple of the Riverside Sect and is not an unowned demonic beast.

It has obtained the inheritance of the Class III peak great demon, the Barbarian Bull Venerable. Assisted by a portion of his Origin Power, its ancient primordial bloodline has been nourished and is currently in a growth phase.

It has acquired the inherited cultivation method, ”Savage Demon Body”. Influenced by its surging bloodline, it can strengthen its demonic physique by consuming meat and enhance its demonic power by absorbing the essence of rosy clouds and moon dew.

Innate Divine Ability (Hiding) has been strengthened.]

[Weakness: This beast’s ancient primordial bloodline is currently in a surging state and requires the consumption of large quantities of Spirit Qi-rich meat to sustain it.

If it remains hungry for an extended period, its bloodline will likely overwhelm it, leading to starvation!]

Perhaps because it has become my Spirit Pet and our bond has deepened, the Identify Library is showing much more information.

Class II middle-grade, and it has the ”Savage Demon Body” inheritance. It should be quite useful in future battles.

Its ancient primordial bloodline is still surging; perhaps its strength will advance even faster than mine.

I can take it with me when I go out in the future. I need to get a Spirit Pet Bag!

Usually, when there was no need for treasure hunting, this little creature could be kept in the cave mansion.

After all, its strength wasn’t formidable, and aside from its immunity to Prohibition Arrays, it didn’t possess much self-protection capability.

Going out with Shen Mo, it could easily encounter mishaps.

However, it now had a weakness: it couldn’t endure hunger for long!

If Shen Mo had to travel down the mountain in the future and got delayed, this little creature, after finishing its prepared food, might become unbearably hungry and venture off to find food elsewhere!

But Shen Mo’s cave mansion was located in the central area of the Riverside Sect’s three main peaks: Rising Sun, Bright Moon, and Stars.

If it roamed around stealing meat, it would either be killed by other sect cultivators or starve to death from a lack of food.

So, it’s safer to keep it with me!

As for the Spirit Pet Bag, its refining principle was similar to that of the Universe Bag.

However, a Spirit Pet Bag could hold living creatures and was more troublesome to refine, thus its price was somewhat higher than that of a Universe Bag.

Shen Mo made a special trip to the Linjiang Room in the Dedao Lane Market.

Only this treasure shop in the Riverside Sect sold Universe Bags and Spirit Pet Bags.

The low-grade Universe Bag Shen Mo currently used, containing twenty cubic meters of space, had been bought for fifty Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

For now, it was sufficient for his needs, so Shen Mo had no plans to change his Universe Bag.

After some searching, Shen Mo selected a middle-grade Spirit Pet Bag. Its spirit light was restrained, and it looked dusty and unremarkable.

Judging by its appearance alone, it was hard to tell this was a Spirit Pet Bag worth six hundred Spirit Stones. It had hundreds of cubic meters of space inside, enough for the little creature to eat and sleep comfortably.

”Glutton, look! I bought you a new home!”

”From now on, whenever I go out, you can stay in here. It’ll be convenient for me to carry you around.”

”You need to squeeze out some fresh blood to complete the final refining.”

Unlike the Universe Bag, which only required Shen Mo to drip his blood for ownership and imprint his mind mark, the Spirit Pet Bag also needed the pet’s fresh blood to facilitate its entry and exit.

”Huh?”

The Spirit Storage Rat, which had been lying on the ground digesting the essence from the roasted Python Dragon meat, scrambled up the moment it heard it needed to bleed. Its small, bean-like eyes stared fixedly at Shen Mo, full of refusal.

Ordinarily, Shen Mo would definitely use roasted meat or jerky to tempt it.

But now, having just gorged itself on five kilograms (ten jin) of roasted Python Dragon meat until its belly was round and full, it couldn’t be tempted at all.

Helpless, Shen Mo grabbed the Spirit Storage Rat.

Under its terrified, panicked gaze, Shen Mo silently drew the Dragon Sparrow Sword and pricked its rear.

Unexpectedly, the Dragon Sparrow Sword, already a middle-grade profound level weapon, couldn’t pierce the Spirit Storage Rat’s hide with its sharpness alone.

Not bad! Its demonic physique is much tougher than before.

The combination of its advancement in realm and the effects of the ”Savage Demon Body” had made the Spirit Storage Rat’s demonic physique considerably stronger.

As its ”Savage Demon Body” continues to improve, one day it might even reach the level of legendary great demons, capable of withstanding magic artifacts, Spiritual Artifacts, or even magic treasures with its demonic physique alone.

Shen Mo couldn’t help but praise it from the bottom of his heart.

Then, he quietly circulated the Mana within his Ocean of Qi Dantian and executed his Supreme Clarity Sword Technique at the ’Transcendence’ level!

SHINK!

The Dragon Sparrow Sword pierced the Spirit Storage Rat’s rear. Shen Mo tipped the sword, letting the fresh blood drip onto the Spirit Pet Bag.

Simultaneously, he squeezed a drop of his own blood from his fingertip, flicked it onto the Spirit Pet Bag, and imprinted his mind mark into it.

”Glutton, stop playing dead! Quickly go inside the Spirit Pet Bag and take a look. If you need anything set up in there, remember to tell me!”

Shen Mo poked the Spirit Storage Rat’s upturned, round belly.

The moment the Dragon Sparrow Sword had pierced its rear, the Spirit Storage Rat had rolled its small, bean-like eyes and promptly ’fainted.’

But because of the Spirit Pet Contract, Shen Mo knew it was just pretending!

Even though it had advanced to Class II middle-grade and was cultivating the ”Savage Demon Body”, this little fellow’s nature remained ’gluttonous and cowardly.’

It hadn’t inherited any of the Barbarian Bull’s temperament at all. Wasn’t it afraid the Barbarian Bull Venerable might revive just to come and settle scores with it!
