The Emperor is Above

Chapter 82 I, Fat Cat, Can't Stand This Injustice

In just a short while, the little fox and the civet cat had grown fatter.

The little fox has changed the most obviously. Its originally round body and fluffy hair make it look like a ball of wool.

At this time, the white fur was covered with fruit juices of various colors, which looked very colorful and funny.

Perhaps it was because it had eaten too many spiritual fruits. Even while being held in Niu Niu's arms, the little fox kept burping. Every time it burped, it would spit out a colorful little bubble.

"Boom——"

As the colorful bubbles burst, a faint aura emanated.

How many spiritual fruits must one eat to cause such a situation?

What made Qing Yi even more speechless was that every time the little fox burped, its momentum would increase, which was very similar to his own situation just now.

"belch--"

As the little fox burped again, five-colored light suddenly flashed all over its body. The various fruit juices on its body were cleaned up, and its fur became even whiter and more dazzling.

"Uh-huh?"

The little thing looked at its own changes in amazement, and broke away from Niuniu's arms with great excitement, and played around Qingyi and the civet cat.

"I remember the little fox was only three months old!" Tuan Shigu looked at the little fox, his eyes full of envy, "This is actually a ninth-grade exotic beast!"

Old Man Shi grabbed the playful little fox, turned it over and over to study it carefully, and then he suddenly realized: "It turns out to be a female fox."

"Ah wu——"

The little fox struggled desperately with anger, but it was helpless in the face of Old Man Shi, a first-class grandmaster, so it had to stop dejectedly. However, as soon as it stopped struggling, it started to hiccup again.

"belch--"

"belch--"

"belch--"

With these hiccups, the little fox's momentum was actually still increasing, but it finally reached the upper ninth level and there was no more movement.

"What an interesting little fox!"

Old Man Shi stared at it for a long time before he put the little white fox down thoughtfully. Niuniu pulled his hand and said coquettishly, "Grandpa, the way Little White burps is so funny. I want to watch it burp again."

After being rocked by his beloved granddaughter for a long time, Mr. Shi caressed her little head lovingly: "Don't worry, Niuniu, let Grandpa talk to big brother first."

Then he turned to Qing Yi and said with a smile: "Yi boy, for Niuniu's sake, I want to give the little fox a chance, but I don't know what it will turn out like in the end, it's up to you to decide."

Qing Yi thought about it seriously, picked up the little fox and said, "Although the little fox is young, it can understand our words. Why not let it decide for itself?"

The little fox, who had always been treated as a pet by Tushigu and Gongsun Wu, showed such serious thinking for the first time. Finally, it nodded and cried cutely: "Ah Wu——"

With the consent of the little fox and Qing Yi, Old Man Shi walked into his thatched house with rare solemnity.

Inside was a huge medicine furnace that was more than one person tall. It was cast entirely in spiritual purple copper, with complex rune patterns painted on it using gold and silver inlay techniques.

There are mountains, rivers, plants, birds and animals, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, clouds and fog, and even more incomprehensible inscriptions that almost make people dizzy just by looking at them.

Old Man Shi rummaged out a pile of jade boxes, took out rare seventh-grade elixirs one by one, and threw them into the medicine furnace with a seal in his hand, refining them with a serious look on his face.

Qing Yi watched the evolution of Qing Nang's phantom for a long time but couldn't get it. However, he stared at the old man Shi's heart with a thoughtful look.

After more than half an hour, he filled a jade box with the black mud-like plaster and smiled with satisfaction: "It's done!"

Then pour the black mud plaster into a stone basin, stir it carefully with warm water, and finally pour in the half pot of tea left on the coffee table.

"Okay, drink it, little fox. Drink as much as you can!" Old Man Shi brought the two-foot-diameter stone basin to the little fox with great satisfaction.

"Ah--" The little fox looked at the stone basin that was two and a half feet high. Even if he stretched his short legs as hard as he could, it was still one foot away. He wanted to reach the basin but was afraid of falling in.

"Haha, this is embarrassing!" Qing Yi couldn't help but laugh and shook his head. He picked up the little fox so that it could easily drink the medicine soup in the stone basin.

"Gulu—Gulu—"

The little fox was held by Qing Yi and drank the decoction in big gulps, his stomach making gurgling sounds as he drank.

Anyone with experience in spiritual practice knows that this is the sound made when Qi and blood vibrate and temper the circulation of the five internal organs. This shows how powerful the effect of this decoction is.

Niuniu didn't know this, she clapped her hands with envy and said with a smile: "Little fox is so amazing, Niuniu doesn't even have a rumbling stomach."

"belch--"

Finally, the little fox started burping again and could not drink most of the remaining medicine. With every burp, its breath would become stronger.

"belch--"

"belch--"

After several hiccups, a huge fox shadow flashed behind the little fox.

Suddenly, everyone seemed to be in a snowy winter field, and suddenly they seemed to have come to an endless muddy swamp. From time to time, the scene changed into a dark underground cave.

After changing more than a dozen scenes in succession, these extremely realistic illusions completely disappeared. It was obvious that the little fox had successfully advanced to the eighth level again.

Qing Yi was surprised and worried and said, "Old Man Shi, the little fox has just been promoted to the ninth-grade exotic beast, and it has been promoted to the eighth-grade in just one hour. Will it have an impact on its future practice?"

"The impact may be good or bad, it all depends on its future opportunities!"

Old Man Shi held Niuniu in his arms with a smile, and glanced at the half-full decoction left in the stone basin. He shook his head and said, "What a pity, there is so much left. I thought I could finish it."

"Meow-"

The chubby face of the civet cat was now full of envy and grievance.

What he envied was naturally the little fox's successive advancement to the ninth-grade and eighth-grade exotic beasts. The speed of advancement was so fast that even this senior couldn't help but feel envious.

As for the grievance, it was even more obvious. Why was this decoction only given to the little fox and not to me? The look in his eyes was very clear: I, the fat cat, can't stand this grievance.

Without waiting for Qing Yi to pick it up, the civet cat easily jumped onto the stone basin, but unexpectedly the edge of the stone basin was only an inch wide, and the civet cat fell into the decoction in the stone basin.

"Meow-"

The civet cat was startled at first, then swallowed the decoction in big gulps with surprise. Even its fur was greedily absorbing the decoction in the stone basin.

Old Man Shi was not angry, he just shook his head and smiled, "This civet cat is quite clever. Since it chose it, it depends on whether it has the opportunity."

When the decoction in the stone basin was drunk up by the civet cat, it suddenly let out a miserable howl, and the small stone basin was torn into pieces by its struggle.

"Meow-"

As the civet cat rolled and screamed, its momentum was actually growing stronger, and the pattern of its cat spots became increasingly stark and vivid in contrast.

Qing Yi held the little fox in his arms and looked at the civet cat with worry, but there was no way he could help. Fortunately, the civet cat did not show worse symptoms.

After waiting for a full quarter of an hour, the civet cat finally stopped struggling. Its aura had only reached the peak of the seventh level, with no signs of breaking through to the sixth level.

"It looks like the promotion failed!"

Old Man Shi shook his head regretfully and let go of the big hand that had just blocked Niu Niu's eyes, but the next second his eyes widened.

"Meow-"

The tabby cat looked dazed at this time. It waved its right paw lightly, and a crystal stone the size of a peach pit in its furry paw was particularly dazzling.
