Chapter 462: Chapter 243: Spirit Beast Dojo_1
Under the effect of the Eye of Emptiness, Lin Yi saw the good and evil aura that emerged above the head of the tiger demon. It was, surprisingly, a mix of gray and white. The gray color in it was dense, yet had not reached the extreme stage of blackness.
This made him somewhat curious. Given the vicious and violent appearance that this tiger demon had displayed, it should be a creature with a killing instinct, yet it only showed some gray.
In his experience, if one kills more than five innocent lives, black color would appear conspicuously in their aura of good and evil.
Moreover, with each subsequent act of evil or killing, this black color would become denser.
The gray aura exuded by the tiger demon indicated that it hadn’t killed much, it merely committed some malfeasance. Or one could say, even if it had killed, it was in self-defense.
At this moment, the tiger demon was staring intensely at Lin Yi, daring not to move a muscle, for fear that the next moment, he would be engulfed by thunder and lightning, reducing him to ashes.
Lin Yi deactivated the Eye of Emptiness. He had faith in its accurate effects; it seemed that this tiger demon merely displayed an outward aura of viciousness.
He looked at the tiger demon and said, “You seem to have committed quite a few wrongdoings. Such a shame.”
Hearing this, the tiger demon hurriedly begged for mercy, transmitting his divine intent, “Immortal Master, in the past, I only killed a few human cultivators who intruded into my territory and wanted to exterminate me…”
“Ever since I joined True Monarch Tian Xu’s crew, I haven’t killed a human at his request. I have only tormented them before letting them go. Otherwise, I only kill Monster Beasts who have yet to awaken their spiritual intelligence. That violent demeanor of mine was just an act to scare people.”
An unusual look flashed across Lin Yi’s face. Indeed, he had not seen any scenes of the tiger demon brutally slaughtering cultivators before. All he saw was the torment. Looks like that pale golden rat gave a pretty good command.
“You should thank True Monarch Tian Xu. He indirectly spared your life. Otherwise, death would be inevitable for you. Now, I’ll give you two options. One, I will heal your hand and you can leave freely.”
“The other, my Spirit Beast Dojo lacks a gatekeeper. Your choice.”
Undoubtedly, the tiger demon harbored a savage desire to kill in its heart; it was simply suppressed effectively.
If it weren’t born in the Secret Realm, but instead in the Monster Forest where it frequently encountered humans, it might have already become a Monster Beast with countless human kills.
Since the tiger demon’s good and evil aura wasn’t black, he wouldn’t casually kill it.
If it chose to guard the gate, he would let it cultivate its character for a while. Whether it could become a true disciple of his Dojo would then depend on its own fortune.
The tiger demon was stunned momentarily and asked with surprise, “You, you’re not going to kill me?”
“You haven’t killed a lot of innocent people, why would I kill you?” Lin Yi said with a smile. Had there been a hint of blackness in its aura, he would have made his move without any hesitation.
“Thank you, Immortal Master, thank you, Immortal Master. I am happy to serve as a gatekeeper.”
Rapidly, the tiger demon showed his gratitude. From their brief encounter, it recognized the strength of the disciple of the Lord of The Secret Realm.
Moreover, True Monarch Tian Xu chose to betray his kind to pledge loyalty to the Lord of The Secret Realm, which must have been due to this man.
“Very well, here’s a pill that can regenerate your hand. You should take it now.” Lin Yi took out a Spirit Level Elixir from his pocket.
For an average person, incurable diseases were just minor issues in the eyes of cultivators.
As for regenerating body parts, Golden Core cultivators can accomplish that.
Of course, regenerating limbs isn’t too difficult. But for severe injuries like those inflicted on his Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng, or damage to brain tissue, it can’t be easily recovered.
Without the elixir, this Golden Core tiger demon would probably have to pay a certain price, and it would take a long time for his hand to regenerate.
After all, the research into their own kind and the Path of Cultivation carried out by Monster Beasts and Humans is worlds apart.
Human cultivators have the Four Arts of Cultivation, Pill Equipment Formation, to aid their Cultivation, reducing its difficulty.
Monster Beasts, on the other hand, had to rely solely on their Bloodline Power.
“Thank you, Immortal Master.”, said the tiger demon. After expressing gratitude, it took the Elixir with its claw and without hesitation, swallowed it.
If this man wanted to kill him, there wouldn’t have been a need to use an elixir. Earlier, if he had released the thunder and lightning again, it would have reduced the tiger demon to ashes.
After taking the Elixir, the tiger demon felt a surge of powerful wood element energy. It quickly activated its Bloodline Power, guiding this wood energy towards the missing part of his hand.
After a short while, the part of the hand that was charred by the lightning started to regenerate slowly.
As time passed, a complete tiger paw had regenerated, although it was hairless.
Moreover, thanks to the nourishment of this potent wood element energy, the bones Lin Yi had smashed, and its face swollen like a ball, had also returned to their normal condition.
The tiger demon moved its hand a bit and clenched it. Finding that its movements were as flexible as before, a look of joy spread across its face. It bowed to Lin Yi again, “Thank you, Immortal Master. Your elixirs are incredibly potent.”
Lin Yi smiled. His Spirit Level Alchemy Skills had reached Proficiency Level, just one step away from Perfection.
Moreover, this Elixir contained the Wood Element from his Golden Core, so its effect was naturally extraordinary.
He then said, “Okay, let’s go to the Spirit Beast Dojo together.”
