Eternal Beast Taming Family

Chapter 382 The Key to Advancing to the Next Rank

"Yuncaolu" was somewhat taken aback. The boy's behavior yesterday did not seem like that of someone whose family was protected by a demon god. How come he changed his story today and said that there was a demon god protecting him?

Could it be that the boy is too young and has never met the demon god of the family with his elders? But this boy's level of cultivation is not right. It can be said that "Cloud Grass Deer" is in a state of complete confusion at this moment.

Chu Jingyu couldn't help but urge, "What is it?"

"Cloud Grass Deer" finally came to its senses. In any case, it was always good to have a demon god. If it was also a demon god, its chances of survival might be even greater.

So it quickly nodded, "Okay...okay."

Chu Jingyu then turned around and led him to the back of the courtyard.

After passing through several courtyards, and opening the last door, "Planting Trees in the Human Realm" finally appeared before them.

At this point, the trees in the human realm were nearly ten meters tall. Compared to their previous rampant growth, they had become shorter as their cultivation level increased.

Perhaps it was the hardships it had endured on its journey that made it more conscious of controlling its size, and upon arriving in this realm, it didn't want to attract attention from those who didn't exist because of its size.

So its current height isn't very tall; instead, it's growing to become thicker and stronger. Currently, the two ends of its canopy are at least thirty or forty meters apart.

Its main trunk is estimated to require four or five adults to encircle it, and the trunk is exceptionally strong, as if it had been forged through countless hammer blows to grow into its current form.

The moment it saw the "Tree Planting in the Human Realm," the "Cloud Grass Deer" almost held its breath. The profound aura emanating from the ancient tree in front of it, as well as its temperament that seemed to have been tempered and refined over the years, made it absolutely certain that this was an exceptionally powerful demon.

It stepped into the courtyard, bent its limbs and bowed, "The little demon god of Qingshan Village pays respects to the great demon god."

A soft hum came from "Planting Trees in the Human Realm," "What time is it now? I've been living in seclusion with my tribe for so long that I'm not quite sure what era it is now."

Upon hearing the clear and distinct words spoken by "Tree Planting in the Human Realm," which were unlike any other demonic beasts encountered here, "Cloud Grass Deer" confirmed that this was indeed an ancient and powerful demonic god.

He then replied with utmost respect: "Great Demon God, it is now the year 4775 in the Demon Kingdom. The four Demon Lords, Phoenix Feather Demon Lord, Azure Scale Demon Lord, Crane Eye Demon Lord, and Thousand Machine Demon Lord, jointly rule the Demon Kingdom."

Chu Jingyu pursed his lips slightly. This little demon beast wasn't as detailed as he was yesterday, even mentioning the names of the four great demon lords.

"Alas, so much time has passed. I never imagined that the Demon Kingdom would be established. My tribe wishes to re-enter the world. Would you be willing to act as an introducer and help my tribe integrate into this land?"

"Yuncaolu" nodded vigorously, "I am willing, but I am a lowly demon with a low status and weak voice. I am afraid I cannot recommend any important figures and may delay the great demon god's work."

"Heh, you little vixen, you know how to make excuses for yourself first."

"Planting Trees in the Human Realm" let out a hearty laugh, then continued, "Our tribe has plenty of time; we can take it slow."

At the same time, a green leaf slowly floated in front of the "Cloud Grass Deer". Then, an extremely fine spiritual thread passed through the leaf, and a radiant light flashed on the leaf. A decorative piece that looked like it was made of jade was successfully transformed.

"This leaf has some space inside, enough to hold objects; consider it a small token of my gratitude."

The Cloud Grass Deer trembled with excitement. A spatial artifact! It was a spatial artifact! Heaven knows how envious it was of those great demons who could carry their belongings with them and access them at any time.

Now, in the short time it took to say just a few words, it has already acquired it.

"Thank you for your great demon god's gift. This lowly demon will do his best to serve you."

"Alright, go ahead. From now on, just follow the orders of my tribe."

Chu Jingyu bowed to "Planting Trees in the Human Realm" before leading "Cloud Grass Deer" out of the courtyard.

Only after realizing that the human and beast had walked away did "Planting Trees in the Human Realm" let out a terrified cry in its original childlike voice.

"Oh no, oh no! The patriarch just bowed to me. Will my master punish me when he gets back?"

Even the leaves on its open canopy trembled uneasily, making a constant rustling sound.

Chu Shengyuan stopped standing there like a statue and stroked the trunk of the "Tree Planted in the Human Realm" to comfort it:

"Relax, relax, it's just acting. What's there to be afraid of? My brother isn't an unreasonable person."

I still don't understand why we need to put on a show in front of such a minor demon. Why not just give it a direct command? Wouldn't it obey?

"If you don't understand, then I understand even less. Don't ask me; I can't figure it out."

"Planting Trees in the Human Realm" is still quite immature, and its attention was immediately drawn to the topic that Chu Shengyuan changed.

"Alright, listening to Grandpa doesn't seem wrong. But why is your aura so strong again? You didn't secretly advance to the Transformation Rank while I wasn't looking, did you?"

On the trunk of the "Tree Planted in the Human Realm," a branch suddenly sprouted from the spot where Chu Shengyuan's hand had been touching. Then, it gently poked Chu Shengyuan and answered in a childish voice:

"I don't know either, but I can sense that this energy is coming from my master from a distance. Although it is diluted a bit due to the great distance, I may also advance to the Derivative Rank when my master advances to the Derivative Rank."

Chu Shengyuan flicked at the newly sprouted branch and asked curiously, "So how long do you estimate it will take?"

"Three years, five years, ten years, a hundred years, it's all possible. It depends on whether my master can comprehend the mysteries of the evolutionary path in his sleep."

"What are the mysteries of the evolutionary stages?"

"Hey, why do you have so many questions? We're all in school, have you even listened to any of the lectures? Or is your teacher just unwilling to teach you?" The childish voice was full of dissatisfaction.

Being mocked by a little kid, Chu Shengyuan was truly embarrassed. It seemed that he hadn't attended many classes when he was at the academy.

"Tch, I bet you don't know anything either, what are you pretending for?" Chu Shengyuan shook his head, looking utterly disappointed with "planting trees in the human realm".

"Who...who said I don't know? It's just that those who comprehend the laws of heaven and earth and transform their domain into rules can advance to the Mortal Path of the Derivation Rank."

Those who inscribe the Dao principles upon their rank can advance to the Spirit Path. I believe that if my master does not attain the Dao, so be it; but if he does, he will undoubtedly become a Spirit Path cultivator directly.

The Dao Principles sounded like something higher than Domains, and Chu Shengyuan nodded as if he understood.

"Of course, my older brother can definitely do it."

Seeing Chu Shengyuan's proud expression, "Human Domain Tree Planting" was slightly speechless. It had forgotten that its master was also the older brother of the person in front of it. What was with this feeling of failing to show off?
