"Roar!" A shocking tiger roar interrupted Lu Ming's contemplation. A majestic force filled the cave. Lu Ming flew back, followed closely by the spirit tiger. As soon as they came out of the cave, they heard a rumble behind them.
With a loud sound, the cave collapsed.
Lu Ming looked at the cave with lingering fear. If he took a step back, he would probably be buried in the cave. He looked at the cave with some nostalgia, with a trace of reluctance on his face. Although the training pool was useless, this place was destined to be his life.
One of the places not to be forgotten!
Linghu looked at Lu Ming with a trace of embarrassment in his eyes, and actually ran to Lu Ming's side and rubbed his furry head against Lu Ming's leg, just like a child who had done something wrong.
Seeing Linghu's actions, Lu Ming showed a satisfied smile on his face. He patted Linghu's head and took out a third-grade elixir from his arms and fed it to Linghu. Linghu suddenly smiled and opened his mouth wide.
Swallow it, and then happily jump around to please Lu Ming.
Lu Ming was thinking about another thing in his mind, which was that when Linghu roared just now, he accidentally saw that there was only one small tiger tooth in Linghu's mouth!
The juvenile age of a spiritual beast is judged by the number of teeth. One tooth represents one year of age, and its only one small tiger tooth is one year old at most.
Lu Ming looked at Linghu suspiciously. Linghu was overwhelmed by his gaze. It seemed that he understood what Lu Ming was thinking. He suddenly transformed into a little tiger cub about one foot long and scurried onto the road.
On the shoulders of fame.
"This is phantom!" Metamorphosis is a secret technique that is only available in third-grade retail stores!
"Ho ho ho." The little tiger lying on Lu Ming's shoulder yelled at Lu Ming, jumped off Lu Ming's shoulder, and ran deeper into the back mountain.
Lu Ming followed, and soon he came to a cave. The cave looked very old, and the little tiger looked like its owner. He took Lu Ming around and found a lot of elixirs, which he probably plundered everywhere.
of.
Walking to a relatively secret place, Lu Ming suddenly discovered a different place. There were two stone shells here. If they were put together, they would be a complete stone shell.
It seems that the stone shell was separated not long ago, and fresh traces can still be seen.
Xiaohu noticed that Lu Ming stopped and showed a proud expression, and started gesticulating to Lu Ming with joy.
"You said this is your home? And you were born from this stone shell?" Lu Ming looked at Xiaohu's gestures and asked with shock in his heart.
"Ho ho." Seeing Lu Ming's expression, Xiao Hu nodded sincerely, his look even more proud.
Thinking of the scene in the training pool where the little tiger grew a pair of fluffy little wings, Lu Ming's face changed unpredictably.
"What level of spiritual beast is it? It's so perverted, what kind of bloodline has this magical power." Even if Lu Ming's heart was big enough, he still felt like it was about to fly out at this moment.
The bloodline of spiritual beasts is very important. Bloodline determines their status among spiritual beasts and their future potential. For example, the reason why dragons are so powerful and noble is because of their bloodline inheritance.
Lu Ming vaguely felt that he had met a treasure, a huge treasure!
Xiaohu brought all the elixirs and other elixirs in front of Lu Ming, and then started gesturing.
"You want to come with me?" Lu Ming asked in surprise.
Linghu nodded, his eyes showing hope.
Lu Ming was so happy that it was too late to refuse. He nodded, packed up all his things, and was about to leave. But when he saw the little tiger stopping next to the two halves of the stone shell, he showed a look of reluctance and burst into tears. As soon as he was born
It only had these two stone shells for company. In the beginning, low-level spiritual beasts often bullied it, and it had to run and hide everywhere.
When he was three months old, something suddenly appeared in his head, and he unconsciously transformed into a tiger that was about one foot long and six feet high. From then on, those low-level spiritual beasts were afraid of him when they saw him.
, no longer dare to bully it, so it will make itself bigger every time it goes out to avoid being bullied.
It has no friends, no care, and only lies alone in those two stone shells. Therefore, seeing Lu Ming be so friendly, helping it break through to the ninth level peak, and giving it tiger marrow and elixir to eat, makes my heart feel particularly warm.
, invisibly treating Lu Ming as a big brother.
When it saw that Lu Ming didn't agree at first, its eyes showed expectation and it felt particularly uncomfortable.
Seeing Lu Ming nod, Xiaohu jumped up excitedly and jumped on Lu Ming's shoulder. Lu Ming knew that Xiaohu was very attached to the two stone shells, so he took them away together.
The little tiger's eyes showed deep gratitude. It opened its mouth and a drop of golden blood flew towards Lu Ming.
"This is soul blood!" Lu Ming was shocked when he saw the golden blood.
Whether it is a monk or a spiritual beast, soul blood is more important than one's own life, because once the mixed blood recognizes its owner, it cannot change for the rest of its life. If the owner dies, it will die, and it will not be harmed after its owner dies.
There is no difference between servitude and slavery. In fact, recognition of master by soul blood is one of the consciousnesses that suddenly appeared in Xiaohu's head when he was three months old.
Lu Ming hesitated. He understood the meaning. He also grew up with humiliation. Apart from his parents and Lu Yue, including the Fifth Elder and Lu Hong, he had no close friends. They were a pair of confidants.
Lu Ming suddenly felt that his previous idea of subduing Xiaohu was so dirty. Looking at Xiaohu's innocent and sincere eyes, he hesitated.
"Soul blood is more important than life. How can you give it away casually? No matter who wants to get your soul blood, they can't give it to you even if they die!" Lu Ming said to Xiaohu seriously.
Soul blood also has another function, that is, after absorbing soul blood, you can clearly know what the other person is thinking through the connection between soul blood and the body. Therefore, in order to facilitate communication with Xiaohu in the future, Lu Ming also sacrificed a drop of soul blood.
"Chi!" The two drops of soul blood merged tightly together, split into two halves and returned to the eyebrows of Lu Ming and Xiao Hu.
One person and one tiger instantly have a lot of information about each other in their consciousness!
Now Xiaohu finally fully understood what Lu Ming said, jumped on Lu Ming's shoulder, and licked Lu Ming's face with his tongue, appearing extremely affectionate.
The reason why Lu Ming changed his mind was that he wanted to become brothers and close buddies with Xiaohu rather than another relationship, so he chose to exchange soul blood with Xiaohu, so that they truly became a pair of brothers who would live and die together.
"Let's go home!"
The little tiger on Lu Ming's shoulder looked very honest and cute, and their relationship was extremely close. This surprised some of the disciples of the Lu family. Who didn't know that it would be harder to make a spiritual beast recognize it as its master than to kill it.
Many female disciples were very fond of the cute little tiger when they saw it, and looked at Lu Ming with envy and jealousy.
"Brother, brother." Lu Ming had just returned home, and Lu Yue came back jumping from outside, shouting with a smile, and her two braids swinging back and forth looked particularly cute.
"Hee hee, it's true, you actually brought back a pet from outside. It's so cute. Let me hug the kitten!" Lu Yue was about to go to Lu Hong to ask for advice on cultivation issues, but she heard something else on the way.
Her disciples started talking a lot, saying that Lu Ming had tamed a cute little spiritual beast from the back mountain. She did not go to Lu Hong anymore, but went home happily to see the little tiger coming.
Seeing the cute and honest look of the little tiger, I reached out and wanted to hug the little tiger.
"Pfft!" The water in Lu Ming's mouth that he had just drank spurted out.
"What did you call him?" Lu Ming asked, dumbfounded.
Xiaohu stared at Lu Yue even more eagerly, puffed out his mouth, jumped onto Lu Ming's other shoulder, and refused to let Lu Yue hug him.
"I call him a kitten, don't you? Look at how fat and cute it is. I like it so much. How about your brother giving it to me?" Lu Yue pulled Lu Ming and said coquettishly.
"Ho ho!" Xiao Hu heard Lu Yue calling him a little fat cat continuously. He raised his two front paws and looked extremely dissatisfied. His cheeks were bulging, and he stared at a small tiger tooth in his mouth and roared angrily.
stand up.
"You are not happy to call you a little fat cat. You are not a little fat cat. Are you a little fat tiger? Tiger?... Oh, brother, you caught a little fat tiger and came back!" Lu Yue thought of it as a tiger.
He was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand.
"Haha, Yue'er, he is indeed a fat little tiger, why don't you dare to hug him?" Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Hmph, I don't dare to hug you anymore, hehe, little fat tiger, what do you think this is?"
"If you come to my place, how about I give this to you?" Lu Yue rolled her eyes and took out a third-grade elixir. A strong aroma of the medicine came out, and Xiaohu really couldn't stand it.
Resist the temptation and your mouth will water.
"Come on, let me hug you, and I'll give you something to eat." Lu Yue seduced her again.
"Ho ho." Xiaohu couldn't resist the temptation, jumped into Lu Yue's arms, and took the elixir.
"I'll take you out to play." Lu Yue hugged Xiaohu and went out.
…
Spring comes and goes, two years go by in a blink of an eye, and only the last month is left. Lu Ming also broke through to the ninth level of physical training last month, and reached the early stage of the eighth level of qi training.
Xiaohu was taken everywhere by Lu Yue, and he became very familiar with the disciples here, especially some of the female disciples, who he liked very much.
"Senior Sister Lu Hong, if you like it, give it another one of the elixir you gave it last time. Do you think it's a little tiger?" Little Tiger is exactly the name Lu Yue gave to the spirit tiger.
Taking advantage of their love for the little tiger, they went everywhere to ask for food for the little tiger.
In a few months, Xiaohu has gained more weight than before!
"Ming'er, when you get there, you must practice seriously so that you can save face for our Lu family." Lu Lin instructed while helping Lu Ming pack his things for Qingyun Sect. Lu Ming was soared into the sky, and was even favored by Lu Feng and was selected.
The core disciples of the Qingyun Sect have given Lu Lin a lot of face, so Lu Lin should not expect Lu Ming to continue his efforts to make his old face even more glorious.
"Don't listen to your father. I just want you to be safe and sound. Just come back and see your mother more often." Liu Feiyan said with red eyes.
"Brother, you have to come back to see me more often. And Xiaohu, you have to listen to your brother, or I won't feed you when you come back." Lu Yue said, scratching Xiaohu's nose.
"Hoho." Xiaohu nodded.
"I'm leaving tomorrow!" Lu Ming didn't sleep. It was his first time traveling far away from his parents. Lu Ming felt mixed emotions in his heart. He looked at the sky silently and thought a lot.
However, on another mountain peak, two black figures rushed past and disappeared into the vast night in a blink of an eye. They were none other than the Seventh Elder and Lu Hao!
