Gu Yifeng immediately sat down cross-legged, activated the system, and began his daily check-in.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in. The check-in location has been detected as: White Tiger Island. You have received the reward: Tiger Demon Spirit Body."
As the system reward arrived, a pleasant feeling followed. After about an incense stick's time, Gu Yifeng slowly opened his eyes, revealing that he had gained another special physique.
The Tiger Fiend Spirit Body is a relatively rare cultivation physique among tiger-type demon beasts. Those who possess this physique can condense Tiger Fiend when they reach the peak of their cultivation. The amount of Tiger Fiend that can be condensed varies depending on the species.
If one belongs to the White Tiger clan, one can directly condense the phantom of the White Tiger Sacred Beast. With this tiger's aura present, the moves unleashed will carry extremely strong killing intent and can easily penetrate the opponent's defensive spiritual power.
Moreover, the Tiger's Fury can suppress the opponent at the soul level. It is born with a fierce aura, which can at least rival the fierce aura formed by killing tens of thousands of people.
However, the most crucial aspect of this physique is that it allows one to cultivate demonic arts regardless of racial restrictions. It should be noted that the meridians of demons and humans are different, therefore demonic arts and human techniques are also different. If one rashly cultivates them, it is easy to go astray and become possessed by demons.
Gu Yifeng simply circulated his energy for one cycle and then slowly opened his eyes. A murderous aura subconsciously burst forth, startling Xuan Che so much that he sat down on the ground with a thud.
"Ahem, sorry, I got distracted for a moment."
Gu Yifeng chuckled and then withdrew his murderous aura, unaware of the pair of eyes secretly observing the two of them not far away.
...
Inside the White Tiger Cave.
A burly man with bronze skin was reclining on a stone seat, wearing a tiger fur coat, with a fierce face and scars on his chest symbolizing an unsettled past.
"Clan leader, I just saw that behind that man who calls himself the young master of the Xuanwu clan, there was a tiger-like phantom that flashed by. It seemed to be the White Tiger."
The White Tiger Guard knelt on the ground and said in a slightly trembling voice.
"What? How could an outsider possibly cultivate the Tiger Fiend Spirit Body!"
Upon hearing this, the burly man immediately sat up, put on his tiger fur coat, and walked out of the cave, heading straight to Gu Yifeng, who was counting the betrothal gifts with Xuan Che.
The burly man, who had been looking fierce, was suddenly taken aback. He felt as if he had stumbled into the crystal palace of the East Sea Dragon, surrounded by glittering treasures that almost blinded him.
"Uncle Baishan!"
Upon seeing the burly man, Xuan Che instantly sprang to his feet and respectfully clasped his hands in a salute to him.
"Chief White Tiger, this junior greets you."
Gu Yifeng was somewhat surprised to hear this, but he quickly composed himself, sat up from the ground, and clasped his hands in greeting.
"You two, come with me."
Bai Shan, the big man, looked at the two of them and sighed helplessly. Then he led them into the White Tiger Cave. Bai Manman made a face at the two of them in the place in the cave that had been renovated into a reception area.
"I apologize for bothering you so suddenly, Uncle Baishan, but I really did come here with the young master for training."
Xuan Che spoke with a hint of helplessness, afraid that Bai Shan would misunderstand.
“Hey, wait a minute, Xuan Che, if you’re shy, let me speak. Clan leader, I’ve brought this boy here today to get married. However, the Xuanwu clan has a heavy responsibility, as you’re probably aware of, so I’ve been specially sent to take the place of the old man.”
Gu Yifeng calmly spoke, shoving Xuan Che aside. Then, with a thought, his eyes transformed into vertical pupils, and he unleashed the Xuanming Technique. The auras of the two extreme regions simultaneously emanated from him, without the slightest incongruity.
"However, there will be some training, but the main task is still getting married."
Gu Yifeng chuckled, but Bai Shan's expression was somewhat complicated. He reluctantly pointed out a finger, and under the stimulation of the White Tiger's power, the Tiger Fiend Spirit Body's power was instantly released.
A tiger's roar resounded, and a white tiger phantom slowly emerged behind Gu Yifeng, its eyes shining with white light, and a bloody aura slowly dissipated. However, Bai Shan and Bai Manman, who were standing to the side, did not feel any discomfort at all.
"Alright, I believe you. But if you want to marry my Manman, the bride price won't be enough."
Bai Shan didn't delve into the origins of the Tiger Fiend Spirit Body. Everyone has their own destiny, and the Tiger Fiend Spirit Body cannot be transplanted. Although he was curious, he suppressed it and wanted to know more about his daughter's happiness.
"father!"
Bai Manman felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this.
"In that case, please take a look, senior."
Gu Yifeng chuckled and handed over a jade bracelet. He had originally intended to give the spatial ring, but the ring looked rather stingy. Fortunately, he had previously received a spatial jade bracelet as a system reward.
Compared to a ring, a jade bracelet has a much smaller storage space. As compensation, it contains a defensive magic array that can be activated instantly by inputting spiritual power. It can also be charged and stored in advance.
It can be activated in emergencies, and the level of defense is determined by the wearer's cultivation level.
Bai Shan took the bracelet, scanned it with his divine sense, and his eyes widened instantly. In his daze, the pressure of the peak of the Dao Integration Realm instantly covered the entire area, and only slowly withdrew after a breath.
The jade bracelet contained only the system's finest items. In addition, there were many pills that Gu Yifeng had previously refined. Although the system criticized his pill-refining skills as being one in a million, his strength lay in the top-quality materials.
Not only are the materials top-notch, but the furnace and the strange fire used to refine the pills are also at a level that ordinary alchemists can never reach in their entire lives.
Although there wasn't a single spirit stone inside, the other items were genuine high-quality treasures.
"Ahem, there's not much. I came out in a hurry this time and only brought these. Please don't mind, Chief Clan."
Gu Yifeng coughed lightly and said somewhat embarrassedly, feeling a little guilty that he hadn't put in a single spirit stone.
"Enough, enough!"
Bai Shan spoke excitedly, and Bai Manman was instantly shocked. She never expected that her father would agree without saying a word. She had been so proud and confident.
"Father! You, you just sold your good daughter so easily!"
Bai Manman started crying loudly, displaying an unyielding spirit that wouldn't give up until she got what she wanted. Xuan Che, however, showed no disgust at all, and his eyes shone with light.
Seeing this, Gu Yifeng sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation. His little brother was beyond saving.
"Don't cry. Look at these things yourself. They were all given to you by Xiao Che. Dad won't take a single penny. But if you say you don't want them, Dad will give them back to Xiao Che right now."
Upon hearing this, Bai Shan remembered Bai Manman and quickly comforted her, pulling her into his arms and patting her gently before handing the jade bracelet to her.
Bai Manman immediately took the jade bracelet and swept it over with her divine sense. The crying stopped immediately, and she even lost her grip, causing the jade bracelet to fall to the ground. Although it did not break, it activated another layer of restriction within it.
This restriction has only one effect: in times of crisis, when facing an unavoidable life-or-death situation, equipment will be lost.
