Starting with the titmouse, seventy-two transformations

Chapter 96 Golden-Toothed White Elephant (Blue)
"Wait a minute."

Liu Sheng's heart stirred, and he landed back in the valley, revealing his true form. He saw that Wu Song had already arrived beside the elephant carcass.

He brandished the monk's knife in his hand, the blade swirling with crimson light, as if it were a divine object.

As it soared and tumbled, the roar of a tiger could be heard from time to time, shaking one's mind.

Liu Sheng stood by with his hands clasped, watching intently.

The monk's knife seemed to come alive in his master's hands, cutting, picking, slicing, and digging like a vicious tiger dismembering its prey, penetrating every crevice with ease.

In less than ten breaths, this enormous creature was completely torn apart.

Skin, flesh, bones, entrails, teeth, and tendons were piled up in separate heaps, along with a demon bone the size of a skull, covered with demonic patterns, exuding a mountain-like, somber aura.

Fortunately, the essence on the demon bone was still there, and a miniature elephant floated up and down inside the ball of light.

This put Liu Sheng at ease.

A moment later, Wu Song pierced the elephant heart, which was as big as a house, with a single stroke, grasped the yellow gourd, and silently chanted a spell.

In an instant, crimson clouds rose, the gourd emitted a radiant glow, and a suction force suddenly emanated from its mouth, causing scalding hot elephant blood to spurt out and fall into it.

A sudden gust of wind howled through the air, and a stench filled the air.

"Is this gourd a magical artifact?"

Liu Sheng seemed to understand something, and recalling the scene when he first met Wu Song, he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

At the time, he wondered to himself, "Where did this dirty monk come from? He's all tattered and ragged, especially that gourd—it's black and filthy..."

They had eyes but failed to recognize a treasure.

Then, he casually stretched, placed his right hand on the white elephant demon bone, and silently recited in his heart:

"Refining!"

The moment this thought arose, the white elephant's spirit transformed into a blue light and entered his body.

A strong, cool sensation appeared out of nowhere, rushing wildly into every part of my body, into my internal organs…

Overturning rivers and seas!

Liu Sheng gritted his teeth and clenched his fists to keep himself from making a sound.

The feeling was so intense, far exceeding anything he had experienced before, that it left his mind blank.

The muscles, bones, skin, flesh, internal organs, blood, and marrow seemed to be taken out piece by piece, turned over and over, mixed with divine treasures and immortal gold, and repeatedly tempered, stretched, and polished...

Cool!
pain!
hemp!
In addition to the full range of flavors, an unprecedented power emerged from the deepest part of the body and quickly spread throughout the entire body.

force!
Immense strength!

The power to uproot mountains!

Among water-based creatures, the dragon possesses the greatest power; among land-based creatures, the elephant is the most powerful.

There are countless terrestrial creatures, each with its own unique and wondrous gifts, but the elephant's strength is unparalleled, demonstrating its immense power.

This power was so strong that it even stirred a sliver of delusion in Liu Sheng's heart—

If a ring were to fall from the sky and a handle were to rise from the ground, he could probably turn the world upside down.

I hate that the sky has no ring, and the earth has no handle.

...

By the time he came to his senses, all the strange changes in his body had ended.

On the panel in front of me, light and shadow flickered, casting large shadows...

[Successfully refined the essence of the white elephant, obtaining the "Golden-Toothed White Elephant" avatar.]

[You have been blessed with the Golden-Toothed White Elephant talents "Elephantic Form," "Divine Power," "Prison Suppression," and "Standing Firm."]

He received four powerful talents in one go, which greatly boosted his strength.

However, being cautious by nature, he exhausted his energy from the very beginning to activate his "Concealing Breath" talent, thus concealing the changes in his body.

On the surface, there are only occasional fluctuations in aura, but in reality, earth-shattering changes have already taken place inside.

He glanced at the arena and saw that Wu Song was still paying attention to them. Immediately, a thought struck him, and he opened the panel description—【Golden-Toothed White Elephant (Blue)】

This demon dwells by the Baoxiang River, feeds on metals, possesses the true blood of a six-tusked white elephant, and is naturally gifted with wisdom. It often serves as a protector of Buddhist temples.

It is thirty feet tall, as wide as a wall, and its entire body is like jade. It possesses unparalleled divine power, and its roar can suppress ghosts and demons. Its golden teeth are sharp and comparable to divine metal.

……

"Has the blood of a six-tusked white elephant? That name sounds familiar, where have I heard it before?"

Liu Sheng pursed his lips, feeling very excited, and clicked on the four enhanced talents—

【Phantom Form (Talent)】: The form of a giant elephant, with a long trunk and huge ears, and four hooves that can subdue evil spirits. Those who possess the "Phantom Form" are physically strong, naturally gifted with wisdom, and have long lives.

[Divine Strength (Talent)]: The strongest land elephant. Those who possess this talent have unparalleled divine strength, capable of uprooting mountains and collapsing peaks, and are indestructible.

[Prison Suppressor (Talent)]: The giant elephant is born with a Buddha-like heart, its roar is like thunder, and it contains Buddhist power. Those who bear the "Prison Suppressor" talent possess true energy containing Buddhist power, which can suppress all demons in the prison and are not afraid of bewitching or mind-controlling magic.

【Standing Firm (Talent)】: The essence of the Gen Earth, standing firm and unyielding. Those who possess this talent can stand on the earth, drawing upon its energy to recover from injuries, physical strength, energy, and true qi.

...

"As expected of a demon! The enhancement effect of its talent far surpasses that of a great spirit incarnation..."

Liu Sheng withdrew his gaze and used all his strength to suppress the upturned corners of his mouth.

Master is still here, so we mustn't get carried away, but...

So cool!
Hahaha!
Of the four talents, only the first one, "Imitation," is relatively conventional, and the third one, "Prison Suppression," is somewhat repetitive with "Tiger Roar." Both "Divine Power" and "Standing Firm" are divine skills.

The "divine power" talent grants strength, pure physical brute force. To say that it can "move mountains and collapse peaks, and be indestructible" is a bit of an exaggeration; at least it cannot be done now.

But a small hill of several hundred thousand stones should be able to be lifted, right?
There is also the "Standing on the Ground" talent, which allows one to absorb earth energy as long as one's feet are on the ground, restore consumed physical strength, energy, and true qi, and quickly recover from injuries.

A phenomenal feature related to battery life.

From now on, the time allotted for transformation, training, and combat will be greatly increased.

Liu Sheng clenched his fist, feeling the surging power from his fingertips, then silently relaxed it.

At the same time, thick, cold earth energy rose from the soles of his feet, entered his body, and quickly restored his strength, blood, and essence.

Before long, he was back to his peak condition, his eyes gleaming and his breath deep and powerful.

"puff!"

At this point, only a thin layer of the elephant's heart remained, emitting a strange sound before turning to ash.

Wu Song grabbed the yellow gourd and shook it vigorously, channeling his inner energy into it, causing the gourd to rumble loudly.

It looked as if there was a cauldron inside, where someone was refining elixirs.

After a dozen or so breaths, he gave a soft shout, squeezed the gourd and shook it vigorously, pouring out a blood pill that looked like red jade.

It is about the size of a thumb, with a deep red and translucent color, and gold patterns wrapped around it, emitting a unique fragrance.

Wu Song's brows twitched, and with a flick of his sleeve, he sent the blood pill flying toward Liu Sheng.

In an instant, a strong wind arose, and the air currents surged.

This tiny blood pill weighs far more than gold or iron. When it crashes into the air, it creates visible ripples!
Master is being naughty again.

Unfortunately, I am no longer myself!
Liu Sheng smiled confidently, spread his hand with one hand, combining strength and gentleness, and caught, neutralized, and scooped up the blood pill in his palm.

"Hiss~"

The pill spun in his palm, leaving afterimages and making strange noises, but it slowed down more and more until it finally stopped obediently in his palm.

"Thank you, Master, for bestowing this elixir."

Liu Sheng chuckled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and gave a provocative salute to Wu Song.

"Go back quickly."

Wu Song waved his hand, both amused and annoyed, signaling him to hurry up and feed Du Bingyan the pill, his expression solemn:

"I have something to tell you."
