Cultivation: Starting from a Fighting Cock

Chapter 35 Demon Pill
The first-tier demon beast, the wolf demon, ultimately died under Ji Cheng's precious feather.

Ji Cheng unleashed a burst of cumin-flame fire, roasting the wolf demon evenly.

The whole field was filled with a wonderful fragrance; it was simply amazing.

Previously, when Ji Cheng roasted field mice, two thieves, and a big black dog, he himself hadn't eaten a single bite. This time, he absolutely had to try the taste of roasted wolf demon.

"Wang..."

The big yellow dog, dragging its heavily injured body, finally crawled over, limping along.

Ji Cheng glanced at it; the injuries on its body were quite shocking. It was truly remarkable that it had survived.

Yes, what a good dog.

Our ancestors carefully selected this piece.

At this moment, the wolf demon, whose dog was almost roasted, cried. It was too weak to continue, so it lay down on the ground and started gnawing on the food.

A bite of meat, rich in aroma, with a hint of fishiness, actually suited Dahuang's taste even better.

As Dahuang ate, two lines of tears involuntarily streamed down his face.

It thought its death was imminent, but unexpectedly, it survived and was able to eat the wolf demon's roasted meat. What could be happier than this?
After refining a piece of wolf demon flesh, the weakened Big Yellow finally regained a bit of strength.

It bit down hard on the wolf demon's corpse, biting and gnawing at its flesh and bones, its intent filled with revenge and vengeance.

Ji Cheng spotted one of the wolf demon's front legs, pecked at it, and tore off a piece of meat, which was very delicious.

The wolf demon's flesh was very firm, but to be honest, it was a bit tough and not easy to chew.

Now that he has entered the Demon Transformation Realm, he is no longer an ordinary chicken, and the capacity of his crop is no longer as small as it appears to the naked eye.

Moreover, he eats meat and refines it very quickly; he can eat the entire wolf demon by himself.

"Big Yellow, what was that 'moonlight' you just spat out? Since I saved your life, here's another barbecue for you. Can you teach me?"

What Ji Cheng was most concerned about in tonight's battle was Da Huang luring the enemy close and then suddenly spewing out a beam of moonlight.

This move is so close and fast that it's very difficult to dodge.

Ji Cheng never expected that on the night between the 15th and 16th of each month, when Da Huang was cultivating facing the moon, he would actually condense such a killing move within his body.

If this attack hadn't severely injured the wolf demon, even if Ji Cheng had intervened, it would have been difficult to kill it.

Then we wouldn't have this delicious barbecue today.

Ji Cheng had no intention of making a move, but he wouldn't let go of the opportunity to kick someone when they're down.

"Wang!"

Da Huang nodded to Ji Cheng, showing no sign of holding back—he was such a good friend! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!

Ji Cheng looked serious and said, "Dahuang, I don't understand a word you're saying!"

Oh well, what a waste.

Because of the language barrier, it was like playing the lute to a cow; even though Da Huang was willing to teach, Ji Cheng still couldn't understand.

Let's discuss this again when Dahuang can speak.

"Wang!"

Da Huang looked at him with disdain, as if he thought Ji Cheng was too stupid to understand even this.

Ji Cheng felt ashamed. He had actually been looked down upon by a dog. Who could he complain to?
"What is this? How come there's an egg?"

Halfway through the meal, Ji Cheng discovered that there was an egg inside the wolf demon's stomach, so he immediately took it out to take a look.

"Wang!"

Da Huang shouted at Ji Cheng, his contempt growing even stronger: This is not an egg, but a demon core!
"Haha."

Ji Cheng stretched out a wing, patted Da Huang's head, and laughed, "Da Huang, you're very honest. If you had tried to take this demon core from me just now, I would have had another one right away."

Actually, this was a test for him regarding Dahuang.

How could he not know that after a demon beast transforms into a demon, it will cultivate a demon core? The wolf demon has one, and so does Big Yellow.

Ji Cheng himself also possessed a demon core, though it was only in its initial stages.

"Wang?"

Big Yellow looked puzzled, not understanding. "Where did you get another demon core?"

Ji Cheng smiled and said, "Dahuang, it's actually a good thing that you didn't understand."

He put the wolf demon's demon core into his crop and stored it away.

The chicken and the dog quickly devoured all the meat on the wolf demon's body. As usual, Ji Cheng unleashed his Samadhi Fire to roast the wolf demon's bones until they were crisp and crunchy, so as not to waste them.

Moments later, the fur was burned away, and the flesh and bones were eaten. There was no trace of the wolf demon left in the world.

Only the fighting marks left in the fields prove that a fierce battle once took place here.

Where the flames had just passed, some corncobs in the cornfield had been roasted.

Under the moonlight, Ji Cheng and Da Huang each held a roasted corn cob in their hands and walked towards the Zhao residence.

……

On the big poplar tree.

Ji Cheng broke off a kernel of corn and threw it in front of the magpie to feed it.

The magpie was so frightened that it flew up and started chirping at Ji Cheng. Ji Cheng couldn't help but shake his head and scoff, "Tsk, what a mindless thing."

"That's strange, why isn't the number after my title longer?"

【Titles: Turkey Shooter (2/40), One-Legged Rooster, Wind-blown Chicken】

[Bloodline: Golden Rooster (65%)]

[Realm: Early Stage of Demon Transformation]

[Talent: Observation, Listening, Inquiry, and Palpation]

Ji Cheng was a little puzzled. Whether it was killing Wang Lei, the thief who broke into the Cui family at night, or the wolf demon tonight, the number after his title did not increase.

Do we have to win the cockfight?
Ji Cheng still couldn't understand the mechanism of his cheat system. He couldn't possibly fight cocks for the rest of his life, could he?
I don't understand, so I'll put it aside for now.

Next, his attention turned to the wolf demon's core, and he spat it out of his mouth again.

Under the moonlight, the demon core emitted a faint purple light, surrounded by demonic energy; it was beautiful and somewhat mystical.

Among them, a relatively solid demonic aura wandered irregularly around the demon core.

The surface of the demon core had faint patterns that kept changing. Ji Cheng looked at it carefully and seemed to see the wolf demon's cultivation trajectory throughout its life.

This is the culmination of the wolf demon's lifelong cultivation.

Ji Cheng could sense that this demon core contained enormous energy, which was undoubtedly the best cultivation resource for demonic beasts.

I wonder how long it will take to refine it?
"Oh oh oh-"

The next day, Ji Cheng landed in the courtyard, and his crowing woke the Zhao family from their sleep.

The big yellow dog ate most of the wolf demon's roasted meat last night, and its injuries are gradually healing.

Furthermore, it deliberately concealed its true nature, transforming into a憨厚大黄狗 (simple and honest big yellow dog), making it impossible to tell that it had just survived a severe injury and was on the verge of death.

"Another sunny day... Hmm? What's that smell? It smells so good!"

Master Zhao came out of the room, yawned, stretched, and smelled the lingering fragrance in the air.

He asked the kitchen what kind of meat they had made today, and what kind of roasted corn they had.

The servant replied, "We haven't even started cooking yet, Second Master. What are you thinking about?"

Meanwhile, at the Wang Family Martial Arts School.

"Master, what are you looking at?"

Wang Jingzhi asked.

Wang Zhi peered out the door for a long time. Didn't Zhou Mu say that the wolf demon would come back by itself at dawn? Where is it?
Wang Jingzhi asked again, but Wang Zhi waved his hand impatiently, telling him to get lost.

After looking around for a while, Wang Zhi turned and walked towards Zhou Mu's room.

"Well, Master Wang, has my mount returned?"

Zhou Mu had just finished dressing and came out of the room, asking Wang Zhi with a confident smile.

"Young Master Mu, no."

"What's not there?"

"I didn't see your wolf demon mount!"

Wang Zhi clapped his hands. "Where is the wolf demon? I'm asking."

"Is there such a thing?"

Zhou Mu frowned and strode quickly toward the gate of the Wang Family Martial Arts School.
