But rushing things wouldn’t do any good. Even if this fellow seemed to have had enough of loneliness, Feng Qing’an felt that few could handle him saying outright, “I want to be your master.”
“They can’t see me. To those from the Human Race, similar to you, I am like a gust of wind, a storm, or a wildfire suddenly ignited. I have observed them for nearly a thousand years, but they have never detected my presence!”
The Spirit of the Cave Sky spoke with indescribable regret and emotion in its tone. The world under Feng Qing’an’s feet resonated and rumbled with the creature’s confession, with thunder echoing in the clouds along with its voice.
Each word and action, an astronomical phenomenon!
Feng Qing’an, noticing the changes around him, suddenly became aware of something. The Golden Scaled Little Flood Dragon emerged from his chest and looked up at the sky.
As for Black Mountain and Bai Yao, they had lost contact. Feng Qing’an could still sense the existence of Black Mountain and knew it was safe. But the problem wasn’t distance, they were not even in the same space anymore.
“As I thought!”
Under the “Sending God Skill”, Feng Qing’an acquired the Dragon Armor’s perspective. From its point of view, however, the sky only held churning clouds, raging winds, and flashing lightning in the clouds.
Beyond that, there was nothing. There was no hint of any giant being with nine heads. Compared to Feng Qing’an, the Dragon Armor at this moment was only confused. It couldn’t see, but it faintly sensed something, but it was too late.
The entity before them, whether it was a Jiuyou or a Xiangliu, or a pure projection of existence, was beyond the grasp of mortals and even ordinary practitioners.
Even if it showed itself candidly before the Human Race, in the eyes of the beings of the Demon Clan, it was just a changing celestial phenomenon within the blessed land, a natural alteration in line with the heavens and earth. Everything it caused was just naturally-occurring disasters or blessings.
Even practitioners found it difficult to comprehend its existence. They could not recognize its presence, even if they were standing before it, or even within its body.
Physique trait: Chun Yang!
Without any combat power enhancements, it nevertheless gave him an incredible, lofty perspective and gaze, allowing him to perceive the truth between heaven and earth and not be deceived by external illusions.
“Only someone of the Human Race, similar to my master like you, can detect my existence! Unfortunately, since my birth, only you have entered here.”
The gigantic head got as close as possible, leaning towards Feng Qing’an. Its eyes, several times larger than a human’s, got close to him. His figure was reflected in the dark and deep vertical pupils. It seemed to want to imprint his image in its heart, to memorize him deeply.
“And only when you saw me, even when I did nothing, you could detect my presence, you could even hear my words, talk to me, it makes me very pleased, Human Race, can you tell me your name?”
“Feng Qing’an!”
The shock of being surrounded by nine heads, each as massive as a mountain range, gradually faded. Feng Qing’an, starting to adapt to this, gave his name. This creature was more approachable than he had imagined.
“And what is your name?”
“Jiuling. This is the name I gave myself. If you don’t like it, you can give me a name you prefer.”
Even though it seemed to possess the strongest power Feng Qing’an had seen so far, its attitude was completely unexpected to him, even seeming somewhat humble, leaving Feng Qing’an both amused and bemused.
“Your name is quite good. Since you’ve already named yourself, why would you want to change it casually?”
“A name only has meaning when someone calls it. Now only you can communicate with me, so it needs to be something you like!”
The largest head, right in front of Feng Qing’an, spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, while the other heads watched Feng Qing’an from different directions, making him feel quite uncomfortable.
“Well, from now on I’ll call you Jiuling.”
Feng Qing’an went with the flow, calling this unique being by the name it had given itself.
“Feng Qing’an! It’s a pity, if only you were a member of the Demon Clan!”
The snake head facing Feng Qing’an spoke with a tone full of regret.
“Why? If I were from the Demon Clan, what would you do? Accept me as your master?”
Seeing the Spirit of the Cave Sky bring up this subject voluntarily, Feng Qing’an took the opportunity to ask, even if he was just asking for the sake of it.
The levels that the Cave Sky Spirit is involved in are too high, and it’s impossible for it to perfectly constrain its existence like Donghuang. One can tell from the identification categories, how could Jiuling perfectly control every bit of its power?
The instant he formed a contract with it, he would probably be directly blown apart, utterly unable to withstand the power feedback from the Soul Contract. This was not something he could currently interact with.
“Of course, it’s a pity, you’re not!”
Jiuling’s affirmative response made Feng Qing’an’s heart burn with eagerness. However, he still suppressed his impulsive urge, patiently inquiring—he needed to learn more information, to understand as much as possible about the origins and details of this Cave Sky Spirit.
For instance, which powerful being of the Demon Clan created this Cave Sky? What were the reasons for that being’s fall? Why did this Cave Sky become so dilapidated that people mistakenly considered it a blessed land, and what influenced the birth of the Cave Sky Spirit? 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝖊𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪
These were all things he needed to investigate. Asking directly might work, but indirect probing was more reliable.
“Are you very eager to have a master?”
Since it had developed spiritual intelligence, it was an independent entity and didn’t need to rely on anyone else’s existence. Feng Qing’an couldn’t quite understand why it was so eager to recognize a master.
“Not eager, but this Cave Sky needs a sufficiently powerful master!”
The Cave Sky Spirit answered truthfully.
“As a member of the Human Race, you should be able to see that this is a broken Cave Sky. I need to repair it, but my power is limited within the Cave Sky. Outside of it, I have no influence. Thus, it needs a master!”
“Aren’t Demon Clans all over the Cave Sky? This place can promote the growth of Demons. No matter what type of Demon, as long as they arrive here, they can awaken their spiritual intelligence faster than their kind outside. If you really want to find a suitable Demon, you can raise one yourself!”
Feng Qing’an asked out of curiosity. The Xiao family had ruled over this Cave Sky for a thousand years. He didn’t know how long this Cave Sky Spirit had been around, but presumably, it should have existed before the Xiao family, right?
“It’s not that simple. I’ve already tried. The best Demon I’ve cultivated till now still can’t perceive my existence.
If they can’t even discover my existence, how can they get me to acknowledge them as a master and control the Nine Lives Cave Sky? Even if it’s a broken Cave Sky, they’re not qualified!”
Jiuling shook its head, its voice full of frustration. Although there were indeed numerous Demons living in the Cave Sky, none were up to its standards.
“What sort of Demon would be qualified?”
Feng Qing’an asked. If it insists on a member of the Demon Clan, he could have Black Mountain or Sen Miao give it a try.
“One with the potential to become a Great Sage!”
Jiuling answered matter-of-factly.
In silence, Feng Qing’an determined that neither of his two companions would do.
“What does a Great Sage represent?”
“Among the Demons, those who are supreme can be called the Great Sages. It doesn’t represent a specific realm.”
“Then, was the original master of this Cave Sky a Great Sage?”
“Yes, according to the memories I managed to recall after awakening, the master of the Nine Lives Cave Sky was the Great Sage of the Demon Clan. I was born from the spirit of the Great Sage after he fell.”
“You never met the Great Sage?”
“I’ve never seen him! But I have some vague memories.”
“So, only a Demon with the potential to become a Great Sage has the eligibility to inherit the Cave Sky!”
A thoughtful look appeared in Feng Qing’an’s eyes.
“Yes, if one does not has such potential, how could they inherit the Cave Sky and restore it to its former glory?”
