"Uncle Tang." Kong Ji came towards him and bowed.

"Is there anything important that I need to do while I'm away?"

"This is the information sent from the Corpse Puppet Sect's insiders a few days ago." Kong Ji handed him the file in his hand.

Tang Ning opened it and saw that it was intelligence information sent by the codename "Elk".

The Corpse Puppet Sect has completed the collection of a batch of spirit beasts and escorted them to Qi State, where they will go to sea and have increased investment in the breeding of spirit beasts.

It seems that the Demon Sect has solved the problem of sales channels for spirit beasts and has begun to develop the spirit beast industry in large quantities.

Tangning closed the file; "Is there anything else?"

"A few days ago, the Jiangdong Intelligence Point sent information that Xun Yixin of the Xun family had successfully established the foundation."

"I got it." Tangning ignored these trivial matters. She returned to the room, took out the spirit beast bag, and checked it with her spiritual sense.

The little white snake was turning its snow-white belly, tilting its head and lying comfortably in a space about ten feet in diameter, sleeping.

Since a month ago, the little white snake suddenly fell into a deep sleep and never woke up.

At the beginning of the first year of junior high school, Tang Ning was a little worried, fearing that it was a side effect caused by taking elixirs or drinking too much spirit wine.

But seeing that it was breathing evenly, that there was no trace of pain in its expression, that there were no scars on its body, and that its spiritual energy was flowing smoothly, I gradually felt relieved and didn't take it seriously.

Tangning thought it was in hibernation.

Snakes! Hibernation is instinctive. Even spiritual animals must rest properly.

Ever since this little guy broke out of its shell, I wonder if it was because he stayed in the ruins for too long. He is full of energy every day and has never rested. Now he is finally tired. It is quieter and can save a lot of money.

Elixir expenses.

Time flies and half a year has passed.

On this day, Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged in the room as usual, practicing Qi with her eyes closed, when the spirit beast bag around her waist suddenly trembled violently.

He suddenly opened his eyes and saw a flash of white light, and a white shadow jumped out from the spirit beast bag. It was the little white snake. At this moment, its whole body was surging with spiritual power.

The spiritual energy actually overflowed from the body, forming substantial smoke visible to the naked eye.

Tangning couldn't help but be shocked when she saw this. When did the amount of spiritual energy in the little white snake reach this level?

Before it fell asleep, its spiritual power fluctuated only at the level of a ninth-level Qi Refining monk. Now it is no less than that of a Dzogchen Qi Refining monk. What is the reason for its spiritual energy to increase so much in just half a year?

After the little white snake broke out of the spirit beast bag, it flashed and disappeared, and the next moment it appeared outside the house.

Tang Ning didn't know where it was going. She locked her consciousness on it and turned into a escaping light to follow it. The little white snake's figure flickered a few times and used its space-traveling magical powers to leave the basement.

Those stone walls seemed to be nothing to it. Its figure shuttled back and forth at will, flickering and appearing, causing quite a stir in the entire basement.

Everyone saw a flash of white light, as if something appeared, but disappeared in the blink of an eye, and could not catch it with their spiritual senses. They were all shocked and confused. They also saw Tang Ning fleeing the light and following the white shadow closely. They thought something had happened, but...

At that time, the entire basement was in a state of commotion.

Tang Ning didn't know the space manipulation technique, so he couldn't treat the stone walls as nothing. Fortunately, he knew the Five Elements Escape Technique and could pass through those stone walls.

Two figures came out of the basement one after another. The little white snake flashed out of the cave and into the forest outside, wrapping itself into a ball.

It sucked in the white mist formed by the spiritual power around it into the body, and then spit it out again, and it started over and over again.

The smoke passed through its body every time it inhaled and exhaled, getting a little stronger each time.

In the basement, everyone was surprised and confused, and gathered in one place. They talked endlessly.

"What was that just now? Did you see it clearly?"

"It was too fast, I didn't even pay attention."

"I only noticed a flash of white light, it should be a spiritual weapon."

"Nonsense. It's obviously a living creature. I think it's probably a spiritual beast. Didn't you see that Senior Tang chased it away?"

"What are you yelling about?" Xu Qingwan came over and scolded with a frown: "What happened?"

"Just now something flickered and appeared. We didn't even see it clearly. Senior Tang chased the thing out." One person answered.

"You all go back to your duties. Don't make a fuss or make any noise. I'll go see what's going on."

"Yes." Everyone responded and dispersed.

Xu Qingwan flashed out of the basement, and everyone gathered together again to discuss.

The little white snake curled up into a ball, exhaling white smoke formed by the spiritual power around it.

The white smoke grew a little stronger every time it was inhaled and exhaled. In less than half a quarter of an hour, the smoke transformed by the spiritual energy was already the size of a copper basin.

Tangning watched nervously. He didn't know what happened to the little white snake, but he could feel that the spiritual power in the white mist was very pure. Every time the white mist was breathed out by it, it not only became stronger, but also became more spiritual.

The power is more pure.

The little white snake itself is like a purifier, and the white smoke is like sewage. Every time it passes through its body, it becomes purer.

A ray of light shot out from the cave and fell beside him, revealing Xu Qingwan's plump and perfect figure.

As soon as she stopped, her eyes were attracted by the white smoke, and she asked in surprise: "Such pure spiritual power, what is this?"

"It's a spiritual beast I raised. It had been sleeping for half a year. It just woke up for some reason and its spiritual power surged, leading to this situation." Tangning didn't hide anything and said truthfully.

"Is this going to be advanced?" Xu Qingwan asked doubtfully

Tangning frowned and said nothing. He also suspected that Little White Snake's strange behavior might be because he wanted to advance, but he really didn't know much about spiritual beasts. In order to know Little White Snake's life experience, he had rummaged through several books in the sect's library.

This book on spirit beasts does not describe what the advanced spirit beasts look like specifically.

What made him even more puzzled was that when the little white snake fell into a deep sleep, its spiritual power aura was obviously that of a human monk at the ninth level of Qi refining, so he didn't think about the advancement. Why did its spiritual power increase so much when it woke up?

It’s only been half a year, what’s going on?

……………

As time went by, the white smoke puffed out by the little white snake became larger and larger. After about an hour, the white smoke was several feet in size.

The surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth seemed to be attracted by it, and surged restlessly. A large amount of spiritual energy gathered together, forming spiritual energy whirlpools, rushing towards the white mist.

The white mist absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and became stronger and stronger. The spiritual energy from heaven and earth continued to flow, and more and more spiritual energy gathered around it. The spiritual energy surrounding it for several miles was drawn, concentrated in one place, and the spiritual energy whirlpools engulfed each other.

While the little white snake was swallowing and swallowing, its body began to gradually grow larger.

Tang Ning was very nervous, watching the little white snake's body gradually swell, fighting against the sea-like invasion of heaven and earth's spiritual energy, but she was helpless.

This is its critical moment, and no one can interfere, otherwise the path to advancement will be wasted, and you can only rely on yourself for everything.

At this point, Tangning was sure that it was advancing, because it was almost exactly the same as when she was building the foundation.

Apart from advancement, what else could cause such a big commotion.

The spiritual energy vortex became larger and larger, and finally a huge vortex thirty feet in size was formed in the sky, which could be seen for dozens of miles away.

The white smoke around the little white snake had condensed to a size of ten feet. It opened its mouth, and the white smoke pupae entered its body. At the same time, its body slowly grew in size.

This time it swallowed the spiritual smoke and did not spit it out again. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged towards its body from all directions.

The little white snake endured the erosion of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, constantly spitting blood and scarlet tongue, and its body was still growing slowly.

At the far end, two figures came from the west, flying swords on their feet.

Tang Ning's escaping light flashed to meet the two of them, and Xu Qingwan also transformed into escaping light and followed behind him.

The two people saw two escaping lights rising from the forest, coming towards them, and hurriedly stopped.

"It's the foundation-building monks. Let's leave quickly! Don't make them unhappy." One of them said with a slight change in expression.

The two of them were casual cultivators passing by. Seeing the amazing spiritual whirlpool here, they came to take a look.

"Okay." The other person responded.

The two of them turned around and left, not daring to stay at all.

When Tang Ning saw the two of them walking away, she didn't chase them, and quietly watched the little white snake fight against the aura of heaven and earth.

Xu Qingwan stayed beside him, frowning and said: "There doesn't seem to be any problem. The aura of heaven and earth doesn't seem to have a big impact on it."

Tang Ning nodded slightly. The little white snake's spiritual energy was flowing smoothly throughout its body without any obstruction. Judging from the situation, it shouldn't be a problem for it to survive the erosion of spiritual energy.

"What kind of spiritual beast do you belong to?"

"I traded it with someone at the auction in Duanjishanfang City. I don't know the specific spirit beast. It was still an egg shell and had not hatched at the time. This spirit beast was used as an accessory mortgage and has been with me for decades.

."

Tangning lied casually. After all, the ancient ruins had such a great reputation. If she told it, others would covet her if it spread.

As time goes by, the spiritual energy vortex in the air shrinks little by little, and the body of the little white snake no longer continues to grow. Compared with before, it can now be said to be a giant, curled up in a ball as big as a bucket.

During this period, several more monks passed by, but Tang Ning drove them away.

Seeing that the whirlpool of spiritual energy was getting smaller and smaller and almost dissipated, Tangning breathed a sigh of relief. The spiritual aura of the little white snake had also increased to the human foundation level, and it had finally successfully advanced to the second level spiritual beast.

Not long after, the spiritual energy vortex dissipated completely, and Tang Ning was about to check on the little white snake's condition.

Suddenly, the color of the sky and the earth changed, winds and clouds surged, the clear sky suddenly became as dark as night, the wind roared, and the trees were destroyed.

Tangning was shocked, what was going on?

The spiritual whirlpool has dissipated, and the aura around the little white snake has successfully reached the second-level spiritual beast standard. The journey of advancement should be over.

Before he could react, a thick silvery-white flash appeared in the sky, illuminating the dim sky and earth. Accompanied by a loud roar, the thunder and lightning as big as ten feet hit the little white snake directly.
