Qin Feng, through the Demon Refining Pot, examined the Swallowing Sky Toad and discovered that this Demon Beast indeed had a natural advantage, with a space in its belly.
He felt a surge of joy in his heart.
Space talent was exceptionally rare, and Demon Beasts naturally possessing such a talent were even scarcer.
Even though the Swallowing Sky Toad's current power was weak and its space talent had not yet shown its formidable side, as its strength grew, it would surely exhibit war power that could astonish people.
He was not worried about how to cultivate this Spiritual Beast right now. It was not too late to figure it out after he joined a Sect and learned more about Demon Beasts.
But soon, his brows furrowed slightly.
Because when his Divine Sense was placed on the Swallowing Sky Toad through the Demon Refining Pot, he could clearly feel that the Swallowing Sky Toad was in a very poor state.
It had significant injuries, even its internal organs showed signs of rupture. If it weren't for the Swallowing Sky Toad's strong life force, it would likely soon be in mortal danger.
The Grotto Heaven within the Demon Refining Pot had been damaged in an ancient war, and that space no longer had Spirit Veins to produce Spiritual Energy.
Without Spiritual Energy, it could not cultivate, and the Swallowing Sky Toad's injuries would inevitably heal very slowly.
Qin Feng thought for a moment and eventually decided to use the Spiritual Energy previously refined from those Monkey Demons in the Demon Refining Pot to help the Swallowing Sky Toad heal.
Although it was a pity to lose this Spiritual Energy, as long as the Swallowing Sky Toad could recover to its original state, he would have a late-stage Qi Refinement helper. In times of danger, the Swallowing Sky Toad's strength was much more reliable than his own spells.
Thinking of this, Qin Feng did not hesitate anymore and directly controlled the Demon Refining Pot to send the remaining pure Spiritual Qi to the Swallowing Sky Toad.
The Swallowing Sky Toad sensed the kindness emanating from that will, and upon seeing the pure Spiritual Qi in front of it, a burst of joy surged from its spirit.
It opened its mouth and, within moments, absorbed all this Spiritual Qi into its body. It even burped, its snow-white belly bulging, and then it comfortably closed its eyes to refine the pure Spiritual Qi in its abdomen to heal its injuries.
After watching for a moment, Qin Feng knew that this Spiritual Qi was sufficient for the Swallowing Sky Toad to recover from its injuries. He nodded in satisfaction and withdrew his Divine Sense from the Demon Refining Pot.
He pondered as he traveled.
Undeniably, the Demon Refining Pot was a treasure; just the ability to subdue Demon Beasts was enough to make him ecstatic.
However, the Demon Refining Pot had been severely damaged, losing its Grotto Heaven and Spirit Veins, turning into a Spiritless Land and unsuitable for cultivation.
Because of this, he could not subdue many Spiritual Beasts into the Pot. Otherwise, without a way to nurture them, those Demon Beasts might resort to mutual devouring out of hunger, which would be counterproductive.
It seemed he should consider how to transplant a Spirit Vein inside in the future.
He dared not dream of a Grotto Heaven, as that was too far beyond his reach. With his current cultivation realm, he could not access any Cave Heaven Blessed Land.
However, he could consider Spirit Veins. Some forces, as they developed and expanded, would find their original mountain gate's Spirit Veins insufficient and would find ways to procure and transplant additional Spirit Veins to their gates.
Some Great Forces could even trade for Spirit Veins. Although it was unlikely to be a top level Spirit Vein, even the weakest Spirit Vein could continually produce Spiritual Energy in the Demon Refining Pot, allowing Qin Feng to not worry about the cultivation of the Demon Beasts inside.
Unfortunately, even a small to medium-sized Spirit Vein would cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones, and he could not afford it right now.
Qin Feng shook his head, no longer thinking about things he could only contemplate in the distant future. For now, he had to figure out how to sustain the Swallowing Sky Toad.
Although the Swallowing Sky Toad would not starve to death even if it did not eat for years, without food, it would also deplete and not make any progress in its strength.
Forget it, after this matter is over, I will release it to find food on its own in the mountains.
Qin Feng quickly made a decision.
Otherwise, he truly could not afford to sustain such a super glutton.
With the Demon Refining Pot, he was not afraid of the Swallowing Sky Toad running away, as he could summon it back with a single thought.
While he was calculating various things in his mind, he vaguely heard voices ahead.
Looking up, he saw they had returned to the place where they had surrounded the Wolf Demon with their clansmen.
"Why are you only just returning?"
Qin Long saw the two return safely and finally relaxed, looking them over and seeing their empty hands. He asked curiously, "What, did the Wolf Demon get away?"
"No, Seventh Uncle."
Qin Yang said, "Brother Feng and I caught up to the Green Wolf and had already subdued it. But while pursuing it, we didn't notice it escaped into the area the Huang Family was responsible for, and coincidentally, Huang Yulang encountered it.
That kid said that since it had entered their area, it was their prey.
Brother Feng and I were outnumbered and couldn't compete with them, so we had to watch them take the Wolf Demon."
"What?"
"How dare the Huang Family's kid steal our Qin Family's prey, is he seeking death?"
Qin Yang's words immediately ignited the anger of the Qin Family cultivators, who clamored to confront the Huang Family for an explanation.
"Alright, alright."
Qin Long shook his head helplessly, "Even if we go, it's hard to argue, since Qin Yang did cross the border. Let it go this time, but if they cross the border in the future, you can do the same."
Under Qin Long's soothing words, the group gradually calmed down.
Mainly, without Qin Long, a Foundation Establishment cultivator leading them, going would be futile.
"Alright, everyone's here, pack up and move out, there's still a large area to clear."
Qin Long called out, preparing to lead the clansmen to continue the Demon Beast eradication.
Because the Qin Family dealt often with Demon Beasts and knew many ways to handle them, no one was severely injured during the Wolf Demon hunt, so there was no need to rest long. It was better to clear the Demon Beasts within a two-to-three hundred miles radius and leave here as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if they were unlucky and encountered a powerful Demon Beast in the mountains, they could suffer casualties.
......
Huang Tingyuan's face was cold as he looked at the body of his clansman on the ground.
This was his cousin of the same generation, ranked fourth, with a decent cultivation of eighth-level Qi Refinement. He had unexpectedly died here.
"Tell me, what happened?"
He looked coldly at the remaining people.
