According to the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor.
Amongst demon beasts.
Existences at the Void Prying Stage possessed intelligence that was no inferior to humans.
Existences at the Void Initiation Stage were able to condense Origin Energy into sound and communicate with humans.
Existences at the Void Interpretation Stage were able to speak and directly communicate with humans.
Existences at the Void Transformation Stage were able to take human form. Demon beasts that had cultivated to this level had already broken away from the scope of beasts and were called āDemons.ā
Besides their essence, Demons were no different to humans in any other aspects.
If one really wanted to point out a difference, then demons were stronger than most humans.
After all, existences that could be called as demons were all existences at the Void Transformation Stage or aboveā¦
The Void Transformation Stage, what notion was that?
There was no existence at the Void Transformation Stage even throughout the entire Darkhan Dynasty, after all!
"Little Gold, arenāt you a Void Prying Stage demon beast? How can youā¦?" Duan Ling Tian quickly confirmed that it was indeed the little gold mouse that was talking to him via voice transmission, and it caused him to be astounded.
Logically speaking, only a demon beast at the Void Initiation Stage or above was able to condense Origin Energy into sound and communicate with humans.
Just like Elder Peng.
The little gold mouse was a demon beast that had only just stepped into the Void Prying Stage.
"Itās⦠Itās me⦠Baddie⦠Baddieā¦" The voice that was pleasing to the ear entered into Duan Ling Tianās ears once again, and it sounded immature like a little girl.
Baddie?
Duan Ling Tian had heard it clearly this time, and he was completely speechless.
When did I become a bad person?
Could it be that in the eyes of the little gold mouse, Iām a bad person?
"Little Gold, Iām not a bad person." Duan Ling Tian tapped the small head of the little gold mouse and said in all seriousness.
However, the little gold mouse paid no attention to him and continued sending voice transmissions by itself. "Baddie⦠Youāre a bad personā¦"
Duan Ling Tian was speechless.
Can she not communicate properly?
Duan Ling Tianās gaze descended into the distance as he held the little gold mouse. The place the little gold mouse overcame the tribulation was covered in destruction and not a single complete patch of ground could be found.
This place was the outer area of the primeval forest.
Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian frowned as he vaguely sense that there were a few people approaching here, as they ought to have noticed the events that occurred here.
Whirlwind!
Duan Ling Tianās figure flashed deep into the primeval forest and avoided all those people.
He wasnāt afraid of them as they were only Origin Core Stage martial artist and were probably Seven Star Sword Sect disciples.
He didnāt want to bring up unnecessary problems.
"Baddie⦠Baddieā¦"The little gold mouseās voice transmission continued to enter Duan Ling Tianās ears, becoming more and more proficient.
"Little Gold, how many times have I said it, Iām not a bad person!" Duan Ling Tian glared as he said, "If you continue to call me āBaddie,ā then Iāll throw you here and abandon you!"
"Heheā¦" The little gold mouseās pleasing voice of a young girl sounded out. "Baddie, if you⦠dare throw me here, Big Sister Ke Er will⦠will be unhappy."
Duan Ling Tian rolled his eyes at the little gold mouse. "Up to you, call me whatever you want."
At this moment, Duan Ling Tianās tone contained slight helplessness within.
"Letās go in and have a look." Duan Ling Tian glanced at the inner area of the primeval forest, and under the urging of his curiosity, Duan Ling Tian brought along the little gold mouse and slowly made his way there.
Theyād encountered many demon beasts on the way, but they were all killed off by the little gold mouse.
The little gold mouse was a first level Void Prying Stage demon beast now, so those fierce beasts below the Void Prying Stage were completely helpless against the little gold mouse.
"Squeak squeak~" Accompanying the little gold mouseās complacent cry was her voice transmission that entered Duan Ling Tianās ears. "Baddie, Iām formidable, right?"
"Not bad⦠However, you ought to not be as formidable as Little Black and Little White," Duan Ling Tian nodded and said slowly.
Unexpectedly, Duan Ling Tianās words caused the little gold mouse to completely become enraged. "Who said so? Those two arenāt as formidable as me⦠Hmph! That time, the two of them together werenāt a match for me, and now that Iāve already evolved into a demon beast, they would be even less of a match for me."
Duan Ling Tian thought otherwise when he heard the little gold mouse.
Little Black and Little White both had good fortune that belonged to them.
This was something that was different from Little Gold.
Moreover, the mysterious young girl, Han Xue Nai, that Little Black and Little White followed was obviously not an ordinary person, and they presumably would be able to obtain a great deal of benefits from following her.
Now, theyād probably already evolved into demon beasts.
"Hmph! Hmph! Iāll surely beat them down once they return! Iām surely stronger than them, Iām their Big Boss Sister." The little gold mouseās voice transmission entered into Duan Ling Tianās ears, and it was filled with confidence.
"Big Boss Sister?" The corners of Duan Ling Tianās mouth twitched, then he stretched his hand out to tap the little gold mouse on the head. "Who taught you that?"
"I heard someone say it when I and Big Sister Ke Er went to Alkaid Peakā¦" The little gold mouse said.
Duan Ling Tian was speechless.
Looks like the little gold mouse was led astray by those āfemale ruffiansā of Alkaid Peak.
As far as Duan Ling Tian was concerned, those Alkaid Peak female disciples that pounced at him like fierce tigers and wolves were no different to āfemale ruffiansāā¦
He was unable to have any peace every time he went to Alkaid Peak.
Fortunately, heād become smart now, and when he went to look for Li Fei he would execute his movement technique and travel at full speed so the crowd of Alkaid Peak female disciples were utterly incapable of noticing him.
Even if they noticed him, they would be unable to recognize him.
Duan Ling Tian brought the little gold mouse to continue traveling deep into the primeval forest.
The fierce beasts they encountered grew stronger and stronger, and there was no lack of Half-step Void Stage fierce beasts amongst themā¦
However, even if they were Half-step Void Stage fierce beasts, they were still nothing in front of the little gold mouse.
"Baddie, refine a spirit weapon for me." Duan Ling Tianās eardrums slightly trembled and he heard the little gold mouseās voice transmission.
Instantly, Duan Ling Tian had a strange expression. "You want a spirit weapon? What spirit weapon do you want?"
"Hmm⦠Let me think." The little gold mouse swayed its cute little head as it pondered, and after a short moment, it said jubilantly, "Refine a spirit sword for me⦠I always see Big Sister Ke Er cultivating the sword and itās rather nice to see."
"Spirit sword?" Duan Ling Tian was stunned, and an unusual scene couldnāt help but appear in his mind.
Within the scene, the little gold mouseās limbs held onto the spirit sword and dragged it along before swinging it out, directly killing a fierce beastā¦
Duan Ling Tian shuddered when he came back to his senses.
If he gave this mischievous little fellow a spirit sword, then wouldnāt the little fellow become even more rampant?
However, Duan Ling Tian didnāt refuse the little gold mouseās request.
"What type of spirit sword do you want? Do you want one similar to mine or do you want me to refine a small spirit sword that suits you?" Duan Ling Tian looked at the little gold mouse and asked.
"The smaller the better." The little gold mouseās eyes lit up and sent a voice transmission into Duan Ling Tianās ears, then muttered. "I donāt like becoming big⦠Itās too fat, and so ugly! I look nice now, slim, beautiful, and cute⦠Those Big Sisters on Alkaid Peak all praise me when they see me. If I were to become big, it would surely scare them."
Duan Ling Tian was rather baffled by what the little gold mouse said.
But he paid no attention to it.
After all, the little gold mouse had only just learned how to condense her Origin Energy into sound, and her being able to communicate normally with him could already be considered to be not bad.
But heād roughly understood what the little gold mouse was muttering about.
If was none other than the little gold mouse feeling that if it was too big a spirit sword, she would need to enlarge her physique before she could use itā¦
Whereas she didnāt like enlarging her physique.
"This little fellow is so smug." Duan Ling Tian shook his head then looked at the fluffy and chubby little gold mouse, then said to himself, "I really canāt perceive which part of her is slimā¦"
Of course, Duan Ling Tian didnāt dare say this out loud.
This little fellow was a Void Prying Stage demon beast right now. If the little fellow were to really get angry from embarrassment and directly become large, then wouldnāt he directly become a pile of mush if the little fellow swung a slap at him?
"Alright, then Iāll refine a spirit sword especially for you." Duan Ling Tian nodded and promised.
The little gold mouseās gaze lit up, and her front limbs ceaselessly clapped together as she said excitedly via voice transmission, "Okay, okay⦠Baddie, youāre so good."
"Iāll start refining now, help me stand on guard⦠If thereās a fierce beast that approaches within an area of 100 meters from me, directly kill it," Duan Ling Tian said to the little gold mouse.
The little gold mouse nodded her head like a chick pecking grain when she heard this.
The little gold mouseās figure flashed onto Duan Ling Tianās shoulder, then her jade eyes flickered with a fierce light as she sized up the surroundingsā¦
"If anyone dares disturb Baddie while heās refining a spirit sword for me, Iāll surely smash them into mush!" The little gold mouseās voice transmission sounded out in Duan Ling Tianās ears, and the immature voice of a young girl contained traces of valor mixed withinā¦
This caused Duan Ling Tian to be speechless.
Is this really a little female mouse?
Duan Ling Tian shook his head and abandoned all distracting thoughts before withdrawing a pile of material and starting to refine the spirit sword.
Hiss!
A strand of green flames lit ablaze In Duan Ling Tianās palmā¦
Grade six Weapon Flame!
After Duan Ling Tian broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage, he was directly capable of condensing a grade six Weapon Flame by relying on the lifetime worth of experience and skills in weapons refinement of the Rebirth Martial Emperor.
It could be said that he was currently an extremely experienced grade six weapons craftsman!
A grade six spirit weapon was something he could refine freely.
"After I broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage, Iāve been busy advancing my cultivation and comprehending Wind Force, I havenāt even had the time to refine a grade six spirit sword for myself, Ke Er, and Li Fei⦠Hmm, Iāll first refine a grade six spirit sword for this little fellow. After I return to the sect, Iāll refine another three more grade six spirit swords." Duan Ling Tian decided in his heart.
In next to no time, Duan Ling Tian calmed down and officially started refining the spirit sword.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
ā¦
Profound refining techniques came freely in Duan Ling Tianās hand, and he combined them with the various materials, melting them into the grade six Spirit Flame to transform into pools of liquid.
Duan Ling Tianās gaze was incomparably concentrated and he completely turned a deaf ears towards the things in the outside world.
At this moment, only the pile of weapons crafting materials and the Weapon Flame in his hand remained in his world.
Although the materials couldnāt be considered to be a large amount, Duan Ling Tian instead needed to refine them over and over again.
The grade six spirit sword he was refining for the little gold mouse was many times more difficult than refining an ordinary grade six spirit sword.
The smaller the spirit sword, the more energy would be spent.
While Duan Ling Tian was concentrated on refining the grade six spirit sword, the little gold mouse had left Duan Ling Tianās shoulder many times and flashed out, and before long, many fierce beasts corpses lay on the ground 100 meters away from Duan Ling Tian.
Practically all these fierce beast were killed by the little gold mouse with a single strike.
