Strongest Spirit Beast Master Family

Wiping the sweat from his face, Blaze Regret stood up and let out a slight sigh of relief. To perfectly merge the Ice control Irenix with the ice lotus, almost all the spiritual power in his second spiritual portal had been drained, a consumption that even he found hard to sustain.

"Hey, you can come out now," Blaze Regret said with a mix of helplessness and amusement.

Parting the black robe on Blaze Regret's chest, Red's little head popped out, its furry little ears twitching, and it looked at Blaze Regret with a threatening expression. Its sharp claws shot out with a swish.

"I promise, if this happens again, I'll smear freezing dew on myself, and you can go snatch things," Blaze Regret quickly swore, as if fearing Red might swipe at him.

Seeing this, Red nodded in satisfaction and then exerted a little force with its paws, sitting down on Blaze Regret's shoulder.

...

Bloodstone Pass, as a gathering place for numerous cultivators, had a higher flow of people than even Velorian City.

Looking at the signboard, which seemed to be drenched in blood, Blaze Regret's eyes showed a trace of complex emotions. Many members of the Blaze family often transported goods to Bloodstone Pass. He wondered if there was a possibility of encountering them here.

However, Bloodstone Pass was terrifyingly large, even larger than three Velorian Cities combined. The possibility of such an encounter was evidently extremely slim.

With a faint smile, Blaze Regret shook his head and walked into Bloodstone Pass. The overwhelming cacophony of merchants hawking their goods made him feel as though he had stepped into another world. Life in the Hildan Mountains had almost made him forget the bustling prosperity a town should have.

After walking for a while, Red, perched on his shoulder, suddenly tugged at Blaze Regret's hair. Its little paw kept pointing toward the signboard of a distant restaurant, and drool was nearly dripping from its mouth.

"All you think about is eating," Blaze Regret said with a smile, flicking Red's head. After thinking for a moment, he stepped into the restaurant.

To get a general understanding of a place, restaurants and tea houses are usually the best options.

When Blaze Regret entered, the waiter didn't hesitate and promptly handed him a menu. Blaze Regret smiled, took it, and gently placed it on the table.

Wiping the drool from its mouth, Red's eyes sparkled as it pointed wildly at the menu, selecting only meat dishes made from high level spiritual beasts. Its enthusiasm caused the waiter's eye to twitch slightly.

Although all the items were dishes, their prices varied greatly. The ones Red had just selected each cost thousands of gold coins, an amount an average person could never afford.

"Is that all?" Blaze Regret asked with a smile when Red finally stopped. Enjoy new stories from empire

Red nodded and flicked its tail, causing the menu to land in the stunned waiter's hand with a light whoosh.

Accepting the gold coin card Blaze Regret handed over, the waiter's face immediately lit up with a sycophantic smile as he hurried toward the counter.

After pondering for a moment, Blaze Regret took out a thick ancient book from his void realms stone and began to read it slowly. Ever since Master Magi had fallen into a deep sleep, some matters had to be handled by Blaze Regret himself.

"Ten Thousand Spirits Art..." Blaze Regret read the title word by word, then immediately turned to the page without a second thought.

As his eyes moved down the page, a look of astonishment gradually appeared on Blaze Regret's face.

It turns out that the most powerful aspect of the Ten Thousand Spirits Art isn't just that it allows the spirit portal to accommodate spirit beasts of different attributes, but that it can actually increase the number of spirit Portals!

Swallowing discreetly, Blaze Regret's eyes scanned his surroundings with his peripheral vision. After confirming that no one had noticed his reaction, he felt relieved and continued reading the ancient book.

"So, I'm not the first person to practice the Ten Thousand Spirits Art. The previous master of this art managed to open fifteen spirit Portals, which means he could battle with fifteen spirit beasts simultaneously!"

Just imagining that number made Blaze Regret's head spin. Such an existence was beyond his current comprehension.

The greatest advantage of a practitioner of the Ten Thousand Spirits Art is the ability to become a multi source spirit master, capable of fighting multiple opponents at once. Increasing the number of spirit Portals would undoubtedly amplify this advantage.

"If the first practitioner of the Ten Thousand Spirits Art had fifteen spirit Portals, then his reputation on the Spirit Beast Continent must have been extremely prominent."

With a snap, Blaze Regret closed the ancient book. A flicker of excitement flashed in his eyes as a blueprint of the future began to take shape in his mind. Just the thought of commanding a horde of spirit beasts with a wave of his hand made his blood boil with excitement.

"However, opening new spirit Portals is extremely difficult. Each time requires the assistance of special pills, and for the first spirit Portal, one must refine a pill called the Heart Pill. Moreover, the minimum requirement is to be a seventh rank spirit Imperial master."

Blaze Regret's mind raced, and his hand inside his sleeve trembled slightly with excitement. He seemed to understand why Master Magi had given him the Medicine Emperor Seed and practicing the Ten Thousand Spirits Art required exceptional alchemy skills as support!

"The Heart Pill is a third grade pill. I wonder if I can successfully refine it now," Blaze Regret mused, licking his lips. He had never given up on studying alchemy even in the Hildan Mountains, but he had never attempted a third grade pill before.

"Just my luck, running into a spirit Imperial master as soon as I left Bloodstone Pass."

The sound of a chair scraping against the floor and a venomous voice suddenly reached Blaze Regret's ears. He furrowed his brows slightly and looked up, only to see Jack Nan and his companions approaching.
