"You have encountered the pursuit of the Yin Mouse, who attempted to devour everything you are!"
"Benefiting from the influence of Karmic Luck, your intuition led you to hide here with Fusheng red carp Honghong, and you were successfully accepted by her."
"The place where she hides was formed by the falling tooth of a Taiyi Golden Immortal Golden Dragon. It is an immortal treasure containing a miniature oceanic world brimming with spiritual energy."
"The Yin Mouse tracked you down to the hiding place of you and Honghong, but the Golden Dragon's power naturally restrains the Yin Mouse. The Yin Mouse's aura activated a tiny fraction of the extremely yang power within the Golden Dragon's tooth. Shrouded in this extremely yang aura, the Yin Mouse was reduced to flying ash!"
"This outcome was truly caused by the Yin Mouse's heavy karma, which triggered karmic retribution!"
"Fusheng red carp Honghong has lived within the Taiyi Golden Immortal Golden Dragon's tooth for years, awakening a faint Jiao Dragon bloodline. Moreover, her bloodline leans toward auspicious beasts, belonging to the lineage of Fusheng divine beasts!"
"Honghong is naturally endowed with a body that gathers fortune; as long as her mind remains pure and kind, her auspicious luck will never be lost!"
"Because she saved you, your boundless fortune exerted an influence on Honghong, elevating her original Human Immortal grade karmic luck to the Golden Immortal grade karmic luck. From now on, Honghong will possess the potential to grow into a Golden Immortal grade auspicious beast!"
"Honghong's Fusheng bloodline has also indirectly influenced you. As long as you stay within this Golden Immortal's tooth, you may gain enlightenment into the supreme divine powers belonging to the Taiyi Golden Immortal Golden Dragon!"
The demonic mouse that had intended to bring disaster upon him was dead, yet staying inside the dragon tooth, Li Qi and Honghong felt nothing unusual.
After chatting for a little while, while Li Qi was reading the prompt messages, he discovered that the fellow who had targeted him was already dead.
"That fellow is probably dead. Let's go out and take a look!"
Li Qi proposed.
"How do you know? If we go out like this, won't there be danger? Didn't you say that one must be cautious in all things?"
Honghong was somewhat incredulous; she felt they had only just hidden themselves away, so how could Li Qi's enemy be dead already?
Besides, she did not believe Li Qi could know the progress of events so quickly.
"Intuition! My intuition is very accurate. At first, I didn't notice that fellow, but my intuition told me there was danger, and that's how I discovered the situation. Otherwise, at that fellow's speed, I might not have had time to escape!"
Ye Feng explained thus.
"Is that so? Then let's go out and take a look!"
To his slight astonishment, the little carp Honghong believed him just like that, and actually prepared to go out with him.
If he had been lying, wouldn't he have been able to lead Honghong easily into a trap?
This fellow really was simple to a terrifying degree!
Yet soon, Li Qi understood as well. This was ancient times, not a modern era driven by material desires and made terrifying by treacherous human hearts, let alone the complex human hearts of the Human Race.
A little carp that had always lived alone as a demon had simply not come into contact with many living beings, so naturally her mind could not be complicated.
Thinking this, he came to the outside world together with Honghong.
Sure enough, the two of them noticed that within the lake where the dragon tooth rock was located, wisps of faint residual power lingered.
It was powerful, noble, resembling the blazing sun in the nine heavens.
At the same time, Li Qi's telekinetic power noticed a pile of newly formed black bones at the bottom of the lake, nearly a meter long, looking like the remains of some enormous murine demonic creature.
The remains were extremely shattered, as if burned to cinders by something.
They were pitch-black overall, with no demonic power remaining whatsoever.
"This is the demon that pursued you? It doesn't look all that powerful—it's only at the Qi Refining to Return to Void stage! I thought it was a Demon Immortal!"
Little carp Honghong also noticed this pile of mouse bones.
Her tone clearly showed she felt she had worried excessively; if she had hands right now, she certainly would have patted her chest to calm her nerves.
Clearly, in Honghong's eyes, a Refining Spirit to Return to Void grade demon was not terrifying.
"May I ask? What is your realm?"
Although he was not clear on the rules of the cultivation world, Li Qi understood that abruptly asking someone about their realm and strength was bound to be a taboo.
"Me? Refining Void to Integrate to Dao! You don't know, the mountain where we are located is called Huaguo Mountain. The main clan in the mountain is a group of monkeys, and they are extremely powerful! Moreover, there are many Demon Immortals in this mountain, and they are terrifying. Those few times I ran into danger, it was because I encountered Demon Immortals."
Honghong explained.
Li Qi could not help exclaiming good grief—Honghong actually turned out to be an expert at the Refining Void to Integrate to Dao realm.
No wonder she acted as though it had been much ado about nothing. As it turned out, the mouse demon pursuing him was truly not strong, and Honghong could easily handle it.
No wonder his intuition had told him to run toward Honghong.
"Yet, how did this mouse demon die?"
Honghong felt it was very strange and voiced her confusion.
Li Qi immediately used his telekinetic power to send the mouse demon's demonic bones out of this cave, tracked a safe route along his telekinetic perception, threw them far away into a mountain forest a hundred kilometers distant, and buried them deep underground in the soil.
During this process, he discovered several Earth Gods and casually used his telekinetic power to block any possible upward divine sense observation they might conduct.
With his current telekinetic power, he could easily obstruct the Earth Gods' line of sight.
Throughout this process, Honghong kept close to his side, curious about what he was going to do.
After carefully finishing all this, Li Qi chose a different route for their return.
"Although this thing died here, it may not be without hidden dangers. It might have a demon father, demon mother, brothers, sisters, or close friends and relatives. Among them, there could be strong beings who might track us down via the aura of its corroded bones. Therefore, we must clean up the traces as much as possible and throw its remains far away to prevent enemies from finding out that the matter is connected to us."
After the two of them returned to the miniature world inside the dragon tooth, Li Qi offered this explanation.
Then, after pondering for a moment, he told Honghong the secret of the dragon tooth directly.
"In reality, this mysterious rock shaped like a tooth that we are hiding in was formed by the fall of a dragon's molar. This cave was likely formed when the dragon tooth smashed down, piercing the mountain body and landing in this underground river."
"What killed that demonic mouse was precisely the power of this dragon tooth!"
"What? This thing is actually a dragon tooth? I always knew it had to be a treasure, but I didn't know its origins, nor did I know how to handle it! What should we do now?"
Honghong had no thoughts of silencing someone to keep a secret; instead, she instinctively treated Li Qi—whose strength was clearly lower than hers, but whose knowledge exceeded hers—as her reliance.
Regarding this question, Li Qi did not know either.
Because he was actually a novice on the path of cultivation, and he only knew the secrets of the dragon tooth thanks to the mysterious prompt messages.
Just as he was wondering what to say, the mysterious prompt messages aided him.
"You only need to have Honghong drip her essence blood onto the dragon tooth to complete the preliminary master recognition. Afterwards, she must continuously refine the dragon tooth with her magic power in order to forge it into a magic treasure belonging to Honghong."
"Once Honghong successfully claims the treasure, you can comprehend the power of the dragon tooth together with her, and you will reap great rewards."
"Note that this dragon tooth is Honghong's fated treasure, and you share no karmic affinity with it—do not taint yourself with it."
"The Taiyi Golden Immortal Golden Dragon behind this dragon tooth is still in this world!"
After seeing this information, Li Qi relayed it to Honghong.
Honghong did not hesitate, directly forcing out a wisp of her Fusheng carp essence blood. It was a cluster of golden-red blood, and the moment it appeared, Li Qi sensed the presence of immense auspicious fortune, as if his instincts were telling him that as long as he swallowed this drop of essence blood, his good luck would increase.
This situation made Li Qi understand something.
Honghong's essence blood fell upon the dragon tooth, whereupon a certain powerful and vast force, resembling a mountain peak, faintly surged within it.
As for Honghong, she sensed a mysterious connection between herself and this dragon tooth.
Because her bloodline formation was related to the formation of this dragon tooth, their powers were from the same source, and the Taiyi Golden Immortal will within it vaguely resonated with her.
Then the dragon tooth abruptly tossed the two of them out, rapidly shrinking under the cover of a bank of clouds and mists, ultimately transforming into a pagoda shaped like a golden tooth.
Then the dragon tooth pagoda rapidly shrank, falling onto Honghong's carp head and transforming into a tooth-shaped mark.
Faintly, Li Qi perceived a special aura from this power.
And then he inexplicably entered a state of sudden enlightenment.
"You, who possess boundless fortune, have come into contact with a portion of the power of a Taiyi Golden Immortal realm Golden Dragon!"
"You have comprehended a portion of the mysteries within it."
"You have learned the Tiangang great divine power, Riding the Clouds and Driving the Fog."
"You have successfully touched upon the cultivation method of one of the Thirty-Six Tiangang Great Divine Powers and successfully achieved initiation."
"Great divine powers are extremely powerful. Right now, you can only manifest less than one-hundred-millionth of their minor might!"
Amidst his sudden enlightenment, Li Qi actually learned the arts of great divine powers.
Both he and the little carp Honghong had each reaped massive rewards!
