Deep in a secluded, dense forest.
Due to the aura emanating from the Broken Gold Tiger, all the surrounding demonic beasts retreated and dared not approach.
Among demonic beasts, the suppression of bloodlines is an instinct, and the bloodline of the Shattered Gold Tiger is obviously much stronger than that of other ordinary demonic beasts.
With the help of the Broken Gold Tiger, Qin Xin was also brought into this dense forest.
Sensing through his spiritual sense that no one was chasing him, he slowly retracted the Heavenly Phoenix Fire Wings.
Although he has now entered the second level of the Yuanfu Realm, it is still difficult to maintain the operation of the Heavenly Phoenix Fire Wings for a long time.
Moreover, Qin Xin could now sense that the Golden Tiger beside him had burned away all its life essence and blood, and was about to collapse at any moment.
Qin Xin was unaware of the Golden Tiger's purpose, so he needed to conserve some of his Yuan Power so that he could escape if the Golden Tiger attacked him.
"Woo~ woo~"
The Golden Tiger, as tall as a person, lay prone on the ground, its belly seemingly drained of blood, and its fur dull and lifeless.
However, at this moment, the Broken Gold Tiger stared intently at Qin Xin with its pair of black beastly eyes, and there seemed to be a pleading look in its eyes.
The cubs of the Broken Gold Tiger were also lying on their mother's body, whimpering continuously, seemingly possessing a great deal of intelligence.
Qin Xin stood aside, watching this scene unfold, feeling quite puzzled. In his understanding, demonic beasts generally only knew how to kill and would never be able to express sadness like this.
"Qin Xin, you've struck gold! This is a spirit beast!" At this moment, Dan Qing, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up, his voice filled with excitement.
Upon hearing Danqing's voice, Qin Xin's expression darkened, and he immediately complained, "Make my ass! If I weren't lucky, I would have been dead long ago!"
Upon hearing Qin Xin's dissatisfaction, Dan Qing continued to laugh, which made Qin Xin even more furious. After all, during that critical moment, Qin Xin had shouted desperately, but Dan Qing had remained silent. Now that the crisis was over, he suddenly appeared.
"Hahaha, don't be angry!" Danqing comforted her. "That ancient celestial phoenix is a divine beast. The mother of this shattered gold tiger must have sensed its presence, so before she died, she wanted to entrust her cub to you."
Hearing Danqing's words confirmed Qin Xin's thoughts, since the Broken Gold Tiger had chased after him because of the fluctuations emitted by the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Egg.
"Alright, I forgive you, but is there any way to save this Golden Tiger?" Seeing the somewhat sad scene between the Golden Tiger and its cub, Qin Xin felt a pang of pity.
After hearing Qin Xin's words, Dan Qing sighed helplessly and said, "The essence blood has been burned out, and the beast crystal has been completely shattered. I'm afraid there isn't much time left."
At this moment, the Broken Gold Tiger seemed to know its own situation. Its body was simultaneously enveloped in fiery red and gold colors. Then, it slowly raised its paws and gently touched the head of the cub beside it.
For a moment, the golden tiger cub's head was filled with a strange interplay of red and golden light.
Finally, a "king" character was branded onto the hair on its head.
The Golden Tiger cub, which had been whimpering, has now fallen into a deep sleep.
After doing all this, the Golden Tiger stretched out its paw and pushed the cub in front of Qin Xin, its tiger eyes seemingly revealing a pleading look.
Qin Xin was somewhat surprised after seeing the changes in the Golden Tiger cub, as this was the first time he had ever seen a spirit beast that Dan Qing had mentioned.
Qin Xin had read about spirit beasts in some ancient books. The biggest difference between them and demon beasts is that they are born with intelligence. Moreover, unlike demon beasts, their strength is basically fixed after they reach maturity and will not increase any further.
Unlike spirit beasts, they know how to cultivate, and as long as they have enough resources, they can continuously grow stronger.
When Qin Xin saw the Golden Tiger hand over its cub to him, he was initially a little afraid. After all, the aura emanating from the Golden Tiger would make even a martial artist in the Solid Core Realm very wary.
After a brief examination, Qin Xin took the cub of the Broken Gold Tiger directly.
At this moment, Qin Xin could see that a kind smile appeared on the broad face of the Broken Gold Tiger, and then a string of crystal tears appeared on its black eyes before it slowly closed its eyes.
The tears shed seem to express both reluctance to part with one's child and anticipation for the child's future.
As Qin Xin received the Golden Tiger cub, the ancient Heavenly Phoenix Egg within the Heavenly Phoenix Futon also began to pulsate.
With a thought, Qin Xin put the cub into the futon space, and the ancient phoenix egg finally settled down.
However, Qin Xin also discovered that after the Shattered Gold Tiger cub entered the futon space, mysterious patterns flowed across the body of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Egg and slowly imprinted themselves on the head of the Shattered Gold Tiger cub, which looked very strange, just like the scene when Qin Xin obtained the Heavenly Phoenix Martial Spirit Pattern.
"Perhaps it was a blessing left to you by your mother before she died, sensing the existence of this ancient Heavenly Phoenix Egg!" Qin Xin sighed inwardly, and his consciousness withdrew from the Heavenly Phoenix Futon.
However, looking at the Broken Gold Tiger in front of him, whose aura had completely disappeared, he was somewhat troubled.
Such a large beast body would be difficult for Qin Xin to carry out on his own, and his purpose in coming to this tomb was for the strange fire in the hands of the Old Man of Si Fire.
Qin Xin did not hesitate. With a flick of his finger, the Azure Rock Fire condensed at his fingertip.
As the flames completely enveloped the corpse of the Shattered Gold Tiger, the massive beast was burned to ashes in no time.
This might be a very good home for the Broken Gold Tiger.
Qin Xin himself is not a saint. He was probably moved by the maternal love of the Broken Gold Tiger, which was thinking of its cubs even before it died. Therefore, he did not want to see its body devoured by other demonic beasts, so he cremated it directly.
"jingle!"
Just as Qin Xin was about to leave, a crisp sound of something falling reached his ears.
Turning his head, Qin Xin noticed what appeared to be a spatial ring among the ashes of the Broken Gold Tiger's body.
Qin Xin was also a little curious, so he stepped forward and put away the spatial ring, then casually handed it to Dan Qing, asking him to help remove the soul imprint on the ring.
