Chapter 194: Two Inner Cores


Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation


Lin Bai was confident that even if he did not use the inner cores of the Howling Moon Sky Wolf, he would still be able to refine pills.


However, if the people in the City Lord’s Estate could not find it, as the City Lord’s illness was getting more and more serious, it was only a matter of time before they would expand the scope of their search. He had only come today to see if the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was still around. He did not expect it to really be here.


“You’d better leave quickly. The people from the City Lord’s Estate want your inner core. It’s best to leave the capital as soon as possible. This is a dangerous place. It’s not wise to stay here for long.”


Based on the Howling Moon Sky Wolf’s cultivation, Lin Bai believed that it should be able to understand human language. As expected, the Howling Moon Sky Wolf’s pupils contracted slightly, and it appeared to be somewhat vigilant. It even looked behind him, as if it was observing if there was anyone following.


After saying this, Lin Bai prepared to leave. However, a chill sense came from behind him. It had no intention of attacking. He turned around and saw the huge furry wolf face. At such a close distance, it looked somewhat cute.


The Howling Moon Celestial Wolf held his clothes in its mouth, as if it did not want Lin Bai to leave. Although its beast eyes were still filled with a sharp and unapproachable expression, it was not as cold as before.


Lin Bai did not understand what it meant. “What are you doing?”


The Howling Moon Celestial Wolf used its claws to dig the ground, then pointed at Lin Bai. Looking at the pair of icy blue eyes, it actually seemed a little warm and intimate. Suddenly, an impossible thought came to his mind. He probed,


“Are you saying that you want to give me the inner core?”


Who would have thought that the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf would actually nod its head?


Lin Bai was somewhat surprised. After all, the inner core was an extremely important existence for demonic beasts. It gathered all the cultivation power in the body. Without the inner core, it was equivalent to losing half of one’s life.


Moreover, it was even more difficult to cultivate in the future. Moreover, it meant that one’s foundation would also be shattered. After all, it was not easy to cultivate the inner core.


Even if the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf wanted to repay him for saving his life, it did not need to act like this.


Lin Bai quickly shook his head and refused, “I can’t accept this.”


However, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf did not give Lin Bai any room to refuse. The frost qi became heavier and heavier. The gra.s.s was covered with a layer of light blue crystals at a speed visible to the naked eye. Then, the color became darker and darker.


Whether it was on the gra.s.s or on the treetops, ice crystals were gradually forming like snowflakes. When the wind blew, the blue crystals fell like snowflakes in the sky, looking extremely beautiful. However, because of the power of the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf, there was a more murderous aura.


The body of the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was emitting a huge white light, and there was a small blue bead on its abdomen that was faintly discernible and slowly rising.


At this moment, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was forcing out its inner core. If Lin Bai interfered or stopped it, it would be very easy to cause damage. Therefore, he did not dare to act rashly.


Very soon, the ice-blue inner core appeared in front of Lin Bai. It was pure blue, like a sky after a new rain or an endless sea. It looked like a work of art.


However, the cold aura around its body was enough to prove that it was extraordinary. It was not an ordinary object. The inner core of the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf could be used as medicine to calm the mind and suppress the inner demons.


Because the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf relied on absorbing the essence of the moon to cultivate, there was the word “Moon” in its name. Its inner core also had miraculous effects. When a cultivator reached a certain level, there would be a tribulation of the inner demons. If they could stand it, they would advance their cultivation to a higher level. If they failed, they would die and all their cultivation would be going to waste.


However, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf’s inner core was very good at dispelling inner demons and protecting cultivators from inner demons. As a result, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was killed to the verge of extinction.


This was also why the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was wary and hostile towards humans.


The inner core slowly floated in front of Lin Bai. Lin Bai quickly checked the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf’s condition. However, other than its weak aura, it was no different from before. Its cultivation showed no signs of regressing.


“This shouldn’t be.”


Lin Bai was stunned on the spot. The sky-howling wolf took out the inner core. Why did it look like nothing had happened? It was really illogical.


Could it be…


“You have two inner cores? !”


Lin Bai blurted out subconsciously.


The Howling Moon Celestial Wolf nodded.


Based on common sense, a demonic beast only had one inner core. How did the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf cultivate two inner cores? Lin Bai could not figure it out. However, even if he wanted to ask, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf probably could not say anything.


After all, the cultivation methods of humans and demonic beasts were different. Moreover, this Howling Moon Celestial Wolf might also have a special cultivation method.


The Howling Moon Celestial Wolf nodded at Lin Bai, indicating for him to accept this inner core.


Lin Bai was also embarra.s.sed to take its thing for free. After all, this gift was really too precious.


He slowly extended his hand and pressed it against the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf’s head. Not only did the howling moon celestial wolf not dodge, it even touched his palm with its nose.


Feeling the slight cold touch coming from under his hand, Lin Bai only then noticed the swaying tail behind the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf. He could not help but curl his lips.


The Howling Moon Celestial Wolf seemed to know what Lin Bai was going to do. It did not guard against him at all, and its eyes became gentle. It did not look like it was hostile toward humans at all.


However, this was just for Lin Bai. If it were anyone else, they would not even see a strand of wolf fur, let alone meet it.


Ding


[ Host has pa.s.sed on 50 days of cultivation to the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf. ]


[ 100-fold return has been successfully triggered! ]


[ The host has acquired 5,000 days of cultivation! ]


Even though Lin Bai and the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf had yet to sign a contract, Lin Bai could vaguely feel that his connection with the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was getting deeper and deeper.


Perhaps the howling moon celestial wolf loved freedom and did not want to be bound, so it was not an easy task to contract it. Lin Bai did not have the intention to bind its free soul for the time being.


After giving the inner core to Lin Bai, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf looked deeply at Lin Bai and then disappeared into the endless forest again, just like it had come, disappearing without a trace.


Seeing this, Lin Bai felt much more relieved.. Based on the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf ‘s strength, it would be difficult for other people to find it unless the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf offered itself.
