[Supreme Pontiff: And Spirit Beasts over ten thousand years old have only just begun to develop sentience, possessing only partial wisdom.]
[Supreme Pontiff: To reach a level where they can communicate and think normally, it would at least take fifty thousand or even over a hundred thousand years, right?]
[Supreme Pontiff: Are you sure you can understand what we are saying?]
Bibi Dong's suspicion was not without reason.
According to the common knowledge of human Spirit Masters, although Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beasts are smart, that is only relative to wild beasts.
For an Auspicious Beast to be able to post comments with a normal 'IQ' in the group was simply unheard of.
However, before the Auspicious Beast could respond.
The fiery-tempered Zi Ji directly posted a disdainful emoji in the group.
[Abyssal Demoness: @Supreme Pontiff, humph, ignorant human!]
[Abyssal Demoness: What you said are all standards for low-level Spirit Beasts!]
[Abyssal Demoness: Just as you human Spirit Masters must look at Spirit quality for cultivation, can a trash Spirit be compared to a top-tier Spirit?]
[Abyssal Demoness: For us Spirit Beasts, cultivation is naturally worlds apart depending on our different Bloodlines!]
[Abyssal Demoness: The Auspicious Beast's Bloodline is incomparably noble. Since her birth, she has possessed extremely high sentience and doesn't need to slowly develop wisdom like ordinary Spirit Beasts!]
[Abyssal Demoness: Moreover, although she currently only has fifteen thousand years of cultivation.]
[Abyssal Demoness: But in terms of actual combat power and mental force, she is completely equivalent to an ordinary Spirit Beast with a hundred thousand years of cultivation!]
Zi Ji's words immediately left Bibi Dong speechless.
Fifteen thousand years equals a hundred thousand years?
Isn't this conversion ratio too terrifying?
At this time, the Auspicious Beast also came out to provide supplementary explanation.
[Darling of Fate: Hehe, Sister Zi Ji is right.]
[Darling of Fate: But there's one more thing; I actually only had over five thousand years of cultivation originally.]
[Darling of Fate: But when I first obtained the diary instance, the System gave me a "ten thousand years of cultivation" guaranteed reward.]
[Darling of Fate: It was precisely this ten-thousand-year boost that caused a qualitative change in my strength.]
[Darling of Fate: So my current IQ and logical thinking ability should be equivalent to the level of an adult among you humans.]
[Darling of Fate: There's nothing strange about that, right?]
Now, everyone understood.
To help everyone understand more intuitively, the gentle Brigitte also came out to give an example.
[Emerald Guardian: Actually, there are also classes and tribes among us Spirit Beasts.]
[Emerald Guardian: You human Spirit Masters should know this.]
[Emerald Guardian: To give the simplest example, the Titan Giant Ape.]
[Emerald Guardian: A Titan Giant Ape with a hundred years of cultivation has enough strength to crush a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast with an ordinary Bloodline!]
[Emerald Guardian: From this, it can be inferred that a juvenile Titan Giant Ape with several decades of cultivation already possesses partial sentience.]
[Emerald Guardian: If there were elders guarding and teaching it, the time it takes to develop wisdom might be even earlier.]
[Emerald Guardian: And the Auspicious Beast's Bloodline is even nobler than that of the Titan Giant Ape.]
[I Really Dont Have A Preference For Men: Auspicious Beast? Exactly what species of Spirit Beast is it?]
[I Really Dont Have A Preference For Men: Why is its mere fifteen thousand years of cultivation comparable to a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast?]
[I Really Dont Have A Preference For Men: If we draw this analogy, does it already have the ability to transform into a human?]
[Abyssal Demoness: There's no harm in telling you.]
[Abyssal Demoness: The Auspicious Beast is named the Three-Eyed Golden Ni!]
[Abyssal Demoness: It is the darling of heaven and earth, born from the Luck of the Star Dou Great Forest!]
[Abyssal Demoness: You can also understand it as the embodiment of the fate of the entire Star Dou Great Forest!]
[Abyssal Demoness: With its existence, the cultivation speed of Spirit Beasts living in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest will double!]
[Abyssal Demoness: Even the probability of a Breakthrough through the hundred-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation will double!]
[Abyssal Demoness: Therefore, if any human dares to attack the Auspicious Beast, or even just harms a single hair on its body...]
[Abyssal Demoness:...they will be attacked by all the Spirit Beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest!]
[Abyssal Demoness: Even Di Tian would risk his life for her!]
[Abyssal Demoness: Oh right, let me add that Di Tian is the strongest in the Star Dou Great Forest besides the Lord, with eight hundred and eighty thousand years of cultivation. Even a super Douluo among you humans who can use divine force would not be his match.]
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Cultivation speed doubled? Probability of Undergoing Tribulation doubled?
And this Di Tian, is his strength truly that formidable?
...The bottom of the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Brigitte, Zi Ji, and the Auspicious Beast looked at each other.
"It seems that humans indeed know very little about us," Brigitte sighed softly.
Then, the eyes of the three were all focused on the Auspicious Beast.
All three of them had received the System's guaranteed reward of ten thousand years of cultivation.
For Vicious Beasts like Brigitte and Zi Ji who were hundreds of thousands of years old, ten thousand years was precious but only the icing on the cake.
But for the Auspicious Beast, these ten thousand years directly allowed it to leap from its juvenile stage to its growth stage!
Its strength had increased by more than several times!
A hint of envy flashed in Zi Ji's eyes.
Even though she possessed the Bloodline of a Pure-Blooded True Dragon, she had to admit that when she had fifteen thousand years of cultivation, she definitely did not have the terrifying strength comparable to a hundred thousand years like the current Auspicious Beast.
Not to mention transformation.
When she had fifteen thousand years of cultivation, she was 100% unable to transform, and other Vicious Beasts couldn't do it either.
As for the Auspicious Beast, as long as she wants to now, she can attempt to transform at any time!
This must be the darling of the Star Dou Great Forest!
...Within the chat group.
[I Really Dont Have A Preference For Men: Bibi Dong, go to the Spirit Hall's highest-secret vault right now!]
[I Really Dont Have A Preference For Men: Search carefully to see if there are any ancient records about the Auspicious Beast.]
[I Really Dont Have A Preference For Men: If you really can't find anything, go to the Hall of Worship and ask my grandfather.]
[I Really Dont Have A Preference For Men: This matter is very important, do it immediately!]
Spirit City, Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Bibi Dong looked at the lines of text on the screen that were like a superior commanding a subordinate, and her expression instantly darkened.
She had originally planned to look up information upon hearing about the Auspicious Beast.
However, being ordered around so arrogantly by her own biological daughter...
How could the proud Her Majesty the Supreme Pontiff endure this?
"Bastard!"
"I am your mother! And more importantly, the Supreme Pontiff of the Spirit Hall!"
"What do you take me for? Your subordinate?"
Bibi Dong snorted coldly and snapped back directly in the group:
[Supreme Pontiff: Qian Renxue, have you mistaken something?]
[Supreme Pontiff: What I want to do is my freedom!]
[Supreme Pontiff: It's not your place to order me around!]
[Supreme Pontiff: You want information? Get your ass back here and check it yourself!]
...
