The door was suddenly pushed open, then Ou Yangming and Ni Yinghong walked out side by side. It was clear from their faces that they were overwhelmed with happiness.

Ou Yangming looked around and instantly noticed a pair of dog's eyes in a corner. It was the curious big yellow dog. When he realized what was going on, he was so mad that he could not help but laugh in the end. "Big Yellow!"

The big yellow dog quivered and ran away with its tail between its legs without any hesitation. It vanished in the blink of an eye.

Ou Yangming and Ni Yinghong looked at each other and were speechless. The big dog was becoming more human-like, so much so that Ou Yangming suspected he would not be too surprised if it could speak one day.

Ni Yinghong shook her head and tugged at her boyfriend. "Let me show you the fruits of my hard work."

The young fellow's eyes lit up, and he watched eagerly.

In actuality, the past few months had been wonderful for him. Whether it was learning the Simulated Spiritual Fist at the Myriad Treasure Meet, the smithing of magic tools in public, and even the shocking fight with the Earthly Dragon Beasts outside the prefecture, they were far from what Ni Yinghong's cultivation in the secret realm could compare with.

Even so, Ou Yangming supported his chin with his hands and listened to Ni Yinghong's story with a big smile on his face. It was as though the delicate voice was the most heavenly voice in this world.

"Little brother, watch me well," Ni Yinghong said after a long time and lifted her hand to point at the void.

The small area shone with luster right away, and it formed a visible green wind blade. Under her control, the wind blade flew forward like a real sharp blade. It whistled in the air and carried an indescribable momentum.

Ou Yangming's face changed, and he subconsciously looked surprised.

The wind blade was mighty, but it would not be something that he would praise. In fact, he felt that it looked impressive but was useless.

Perhaps ordinary martial artists would be flustered if faced with the wind blade, but Ou Yangming believed that experienced Yang Grade powerhouses could easily disintegrate the blade's threat.

Nonetheless, Ni Yinghong was just a Force Grade martial artist a few months ago. After cultivating in the secret realm, she had advanced to Yin Grade but was not at the peak.

Given the circumstances, it was quite amazing that her wind blade could wipe out Yin Grade martial artists and could threaten Yang Grade martial artists.

"Pow…"

When the wind blade arrived at a shrub, Ni Yinghong was already at her limit. As such, the blade suddenly shrunk and exploded, releasing formidable scattered powers.

"Woof…"

The big yellow dog jumped out abruptly from the shrub. It reacted quickly but still suffered a few hits, causing its fur to be cut. The big dog gritted its teeth and barked at Ni Yinghong as if it was complaining about her.

Ni Yinghong covered her mouth and apologized, "Big Yellow, I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose."

"Woof…" The big yellow dog was not resigned to the outcome, and its eyes were teary. 'You obviously did it on purpose. Do you think it's easy to lie to a dog?'

Ou Yangming could not help but burst out laughing when he saw Big Yellow, who was much larger than him, behave like that.

The big yellow dog roared furiously. It kicked its legs against the ground as though it would charge at the young fellow to bite him.

Ni Yinghong did not know to laugh or to cry, and she tugged at Ou Yangming's sleeve. The two clowns were giving her a headache.

Ou Yangming finally held back his laughter and said, "Big Yellow, don't be mad, I'll give you more of that stuff later."

The big yellow dog's eyes glowed. Instead of blaming them, it stuck out its tongue and wagged its tail to fawn over them.

"Elder Sister Ying, you learned quite well. Your mental power became more powerful than before," Ou Yangming remarked sincerely.

"Is that so?" Ni Yinghong smiled faintly at him. "Why do I feel like your mental power became more powerful instead?"

Ou Yangming was stunned, and he chuckled embarrassedly.

His mental power had indeed increased by a huge margin after he absorbed energies from the Earthly Dragon Beast's flesh and blood. It had even surpassed the 60-points mark.

Although Ou Yangming did not know what his mental power would now be capable of, he knew very well how fearsome the power would be. At the very least, among a group of people who were also adept in mental power, they could easily sense his pressure.

"Elder Sister Ying, I did have some strange encounters, so my mental power became greater. Besides, I gained some understanding of flames and can control them now. Watch me!" Ou Yangming expressed sternly.

"Okay!" Ni Yinghong was interested.

Following that, Ou Yangming focused and became serious.

He looked around and fixed his gaze on the big yellow dog.

Big Yellow was immediately nervous, but it confronted the young fellow without showing a weak impression. It vaguely had a feeling that he was going to take revenge on it for eavesdropping earlier.

Sure enough, Ou Yangming turned his wrist next and produced a small fireball.

The fireball was not huge, but it released a frightening might as soon as it appeared, causing the big yellow dog to have goosebumps.

Subsequently, Ou Yangming hurled the fireball at the big yellow dog. The fireball's speed was not inferior to the speed of Ni Yinghong's wind blade at all, and it swiftly arrived in front of the big dog.

The big yellow dog roared loudly, causing the soil in front of him to vibrate and stand up. They transformed into a soil wall in front of it.

Ou Yangming was truly enlightened. He was certain that it was the big yellow dog's new ability because it never performed it when they previously killed a Supreme Great Ancestor.

With that, the fireball crashed into the wall.

It disappeared after an explosion, but the soil wall crumbled as well and turned into dust.

The big yellow dog looked proud, as if it was extremely satisfied with its masterpiece.

Ou Yangming nodded and praised the dog, "Big Yellow, that was awesome."

Big Yellow became more arrogant, thus it lifted its head high.

The young fellow later looked up and warned, "Big Yellow, be careful."

'What do you mean?' The big yellow dog was dumbfounded.

Next, it saw another small fireball emerge from Ou Yangming's palm, and it was thrown in its direction once more.

Just as the big yellow dog wanted to repeat its previous move, it noticed through the corner of its eyes the agglomeration of another small fireball on Ou Yangming's palm. The young fellow used his fingers to flick the second fireball, which quickly zoomed toward the big dog through the same flight path as the first.

It was not the end, but the beginning.

The third, the fourth, the fifth…

Small fireballs were formed one after another, and they flew toward the big yellow dog at the speed of light.

The big yellow dog roared and turned to escape without any hesitation.

Faced with many small fireballs, it would be foolish if it wanted to resist them with the soil wall again.

"Pow, pow, pow…"

The small fireballs pursued Big Yellow and exploded a few steps behind it, releasing countless sparks each time they exploded. Moreover, the air flow from the explosions caused the big yellow dog to bark continuously.

Ni Yinghong giggled as she watched, but deep down she was in awe of Ou Yangming's formidable strength.

Given that it was a unique skill that adopted mental power, Ni Yinghong knew very well how difficult it was to gather wind blades. Though she did not know how to create small fireballs, she also knew it would not be easier than generating wind blades.

She could only assemble one wind blade when she tried her best, but Ou Yangming managed to launch over ten small fireballs with ease.

The disparity between their mental powers was much bigger than the gap between their martial art cultivation bases.

Deep down, Ni Yinghong finally developed some sense of trust.

Perhaps Ou Yangming, who possessed great mental power, could really resist the spirit beast and kill it.

Ou Yangming's voice echoed in her mind at that moment.

'You have me.'

Perhaps the young fellow did not boast about what he could do, but he was confident because he was truly capable.

"Woof…"

As the big yellow dog barked, Ni Yinghong beamed.

Ou Yangming was relieved when he stole a quick glance at her. The young fellow displayed the strongest side of him not because he wanted to show off, but because he wanted to indirectly assure her.

The effect turned out to be great.

Feeling delighted, his mental power became more active. While he kept releasing small fireballs, the big yellow dog howled in grief.

At last, the big yellow dog was hit by one of the fireballs, which surrounded it like scattered flowers. The sparks from the explosion almost burnt its fur.

Big Yellow barked because of the heat while Ou Yangming tensed up a little. He realized that he went slightly overboard due to his carelessness.

He stopped releasing fireballs and looked at the big dog apologetically.

The big yellow dog approached Ou Yangming tearfully and opened its mouth to bite his arm. Its eyes were filled with resentment as it blamed him for neglecting it in the presence of his love.

Ou Yangming used his other hand to comfort the enraged big yellow dog and whispered to its ear that he would bring him 100 bags of Earthly Dragon Beast's flesh and blood.

Big Yellow was undecided when it heard the promise, but it finally let go. That said, it still looked aggrieved.

Ou Yangming felt guilty. He later embraced Ni Yinghong again and left the secret realm under the big yellow dog's escort.

It was not the time to be immersed in love. At the very least, he must not relax before the spirit beast was eliminated.

There were many things left for him to do, and his priority was to improve his and the big yellow dog's absolute strengths as much as possible...
