Chapter 827: Choice
reason why Qin Sang has always been unsure.This dispute on Mount Tianfeng is not simply about comparing magical prowess. The two artifacts he possesses have limited effectiveness.Of course, strong pow..."It looks like it's been a while..."

Qin Sang entered the small courtyard and reached out to take the sound transmission note into his palm. It was indeed one left behind two years ago. The sound transmission note didn't specify what it was about, only saying that after Qin Sang returned, he should notify the contact person, and the two would meet again on another date.
It is estimated that because he was not there, he missed a good opportunity.
But in Qin Sang's eyes, Senior Qingzhu was far more important than Xiang Yi, and she didn't regret it.
After returning, he also kept an eye on the news from the Riftwind Islands.
At this time, Qin Sang had already put on his cloak. He crushed the sound transmission talisman and left the courtyard, walking towards the agreed-upon shop.
The shopkeeper is still that white-haired old man.

Upon seeing Qin Sang, the man's face lit up with joy. "Master, you've finally returned! The master came back once two years ago, but left the next day."
"I have some important matters to attend to, and I didn't expect it to be delayed for so long," Qin Sang asked in a deep voice, "Did Madam Liu have anything to say before she left"
The shopkeeper whispered, "The master said before leaving that when the senior returned, she should inform her, and she would come to visit the senior in person. Since the senior is back, I will send a message to the master."
Qin Sang nodded, "In the past few years, I probably won't leave Tianxing Island. When Madam Liu returns, she can go directly to the small courtyard to see me."
After taking care of all the trivial matters, by the time Qin Sang returned to his cave abode, it was already night.
Stars are twinkling.
He tirelessly practiced the Heavenly Demon Body Refining Technique. Just after midnight, Qin Sang let out a soft whistle. A series of crackling sounds echoed within him, and a thin layer of sweat beaded on his skin.
"Reached the mid-stage of the second layer!"
Qin Sang's face lit up with joy. He clenched his fist, sensing the surge of power within him. His physical strength had indeed increased significantly.
During this trip to the Lièfēng Archipelago, it was either rushing on the road or investigating various messages, intermittently cultivating until finally breaking through to the mid-stage of the second level.
"I just bought some pills that are good for the physical body. If nothing goes wrong, I should be able to reach the later stage of the second transformation in about ten years and prepare to break through."
Qin Sang calculated the time and made a plan.
“When breaking through to the third layer, the requirements for Star Essence Infusion are extremely high. Even with magical artifacts like the Star Spirit Network wouldn't be enough; you must find a suitable location. Or, you need to find two other types of spiritual herbs and rely on their power to forcibly break through. Both of these aspects need to be prepared simultaneously…”
Thinking of the elixir, Qin Sang's heart moved. He took out the Overlord Blood Fruit and summoned the two-headed hellhound.
“This fruit is called the Overlord Blood Fruit, it's just right for your demon race. Take it. The Overlord Blood Fruit has a domineering effect, the pain is piercing, remember to activate your bloodline power to refine the medicinal power. Your cultivation base is not bad, you shouldn't have any problems…”
Qin Sang kept his promise and gave the double-headed hound the promised spirit fruit, telling it about the effect of the medicine.
The two-headed hound's eyes were unusually bright, eager to snatch the spirit fruit and swallow it in one gulp.
After swallowing the spirit fruit, the two-headed hound lay on the ground motionless.
Qin Sang guarded on the side and added several layers of restrictions, observing the changes in the two-headed hound.
The Double-headed Hound is a top performer among the mid-stage demon core cultivators. After swallowing the Hegemony Blood Fruit, it's estimated that it could directly reach the peak of the mid-stage demon core, but the possibility of breaking through to the next stage is low.
Before transforming into a human, the challenge for demons to break through was even harder than for cultivators.

> The Bah She Blood Fruit is not a spiritual herb that refines bloodlines or assists in breakthroughs.
Peacetime is fleeting.
The two-headed hound swallowed the Overlord Blood Fruit and suddenly let out a roar. Its body arched violently before slamming back onto the ground, a faint red light surging across its surface.
Under the shroud of blood, the two-headed hound's body seemed to writhe with countless worms, rising and falling. Its bones shifted and creaked, accompanied by increasingly intense pain.
The two-headed hound's barks had become fragmented.

It clung to the ground with its four claws, its two heads bobbing erratically, unsure where to move. Its vertical pupils were squeezed shut, its face contorted in pain. Then its body huddled together tightly, trembling violently.
“Such a powerful effect, this is still immature, it truly lives up to its reputation as the medicine of tigers and wolves.”
Qin Sang saw the appearance of the two-headed hellhound and felt a little scared.
After taking the medicine, I probably became even worse than a two-headed hound.
The drug's effects continuously assaulted, the two-headed hellhound's roar became hoarse, its body curled into a ball, desperately resisting the power of the Overlord Fruit. From its appearance, one couldn't tell any change in its cultivation level.
Qin Sang wasn't worried. A two-headed hound couldn't possibly be subdued by a mere spirit fruit.
After waiting for a while, seeing that the two-headed hound's condition remained unchanged and didn't worsen, Qin Sang ignored it and was about to continue his cultivation when a sudden glimpse from his peripheral vision caused his expression to change drastically.

Between the two heads of the Chimera, a small lump bulges.
In the later stages of the Yao Dan period, a two-headed hound will have a large lump between its two heads. When this lump develops into a third head, it signifies that the two-headed hound has entered the transformation stage!
The emergence of the small pouch means that the two-headed hound is breaking through to the late stage of the demon pill.
Qin Sang stood up, his eyes flickering.

He faced a dilemma.
Once the two-headed hellhound breaks through to the later stage, it will exceed the control limit of the Mixed Yuan Heart Ring and break free from its restraints. Unexpectedly, after taking the Overlord Blood Fruit, the two-headed hellhound managed to break through to the later stage in one fell swoop.
Though it's breaking through, the two-headed hellhound is still controllable.
It's not easy to find another peak-level demon of this stage. Moreover, the talent of the two-headed dog is exceptional; otherwise, he would have considered replacing it long ago.
Qin Sang's expression changed, but in the end, he did nothing. He just watched it quietly.

Thinking back on these years, the two-headed hound hasn't been without its contributions, even if it hasn't always been easy. If it truly can break through this time, it must be fate. I'll set it free then. My own strength isn't what it used to be, and I rely on the two-headed hound less than before.
Time passes little by little.
Until dawn, the bulge on the two-headed hellhound's neck would expand and contract, but it still couldn't break through. Its breath had weakened considerably.
Another attempt to break through failed.
The two-headed hound opened its eyes, let out a mournful wail, and looked at Qin Sang. Its eyes were weak, as if begging for mercy.
Qin Sang understood that it wanted him to help.

He let out a soft sigh and said, "You know in your heart that after breaking through, you'll be free from all constraints. Don't blame me for taking advantage of the situation. If you can break through on your own, I will let you leave. Otherwise..."
Saying that, Qin Sang took out a Baxiè Fruit and placed it in front of the two-headed Hound.
“This fruit can be yours, but you must acknowledge me as your master. For decades, you have followed me through all sorts of dangerous places, and you’ve seen my abilities with your own eyes. I, Qin [Name], do not boast, but believe myself to be no different from any other cultivator at the Core Formation stage, and achieving Nascent Soul is inevitable. Serving as my spirit beast is not a disgrace to you; I can even help you find demonic cultivation techniques. Besides, the lifespan of humans is far shorter than that of demon beasts. Even Nascent Soul cultivators only live for a few thousand years. I can promise to remove your restrictions before I die.”

Qin Sang took a step back and said, "Think about it yourself."

After acknowledging its master, it would be considered one of their own and the 《天妖煉形》 could be passed down to it. However, Qin Sang did not explicitly state this, as he suspected that there were many secrets behind the cultivation method. If it were leaked to a powerful demon in its physical form, it would invite disaster.
The two-headed hellhound's eyes were blood red, fixed on the Blood Emperor Fruit as it struggled.
Address: discovering it was a transmission talisman. After taking a look, his face lit up with joy. He immediately closed the cave and left his outer avatar behind to meditate quietly before leaving in a hurr...
