7 Hundred Years Old Spirit Beast Advancement
The night vastly approaches, and soon the darkness of the night with its outstretched hand then covers the entirety of the land within the outer area of the Great Star Dou Forest.
The lingering scent of the dried up blood from the recently deceased 100 years old Iron Claw Mongoose had indeed attracted many other nocturnal types of spirit beasts and scavengers alike, thereby causing them to flock to and surrounded the entire area surrounding the three to four meters radius grass field that was personally created by Yao Zi himself.
However, upon finding nothing, no corpses or whatever remains left of the 100 years old Iron Claw Mongoose that can be salvaged. The wandering nocturnal spirit beast then up and left, leaving the facility surrounding Yao Zi's hideout, one by one.
As the time slowly passes, trickling by, Yao Zi's stomach has managed to completely digest the contents of the 100 years old Iron Claw Mongoose and steadily makes it his own strength.
[You have successfully absorbed the cultivation base of the 100 (127) years old Iron Claw Mongoose, thereby solidifying your own cultivation base!]
[Your cultivation base has increased by 127 years old! Plus 1270 points into the host attribute spiritual power stats! All stats have been increased!]
[You have successfully broken through 10 the 100 years old age range! As an added bonus, additional skill proficiency has been added on to existing spirit beast skills!]
Yao Zi's snake body length then gradually grows to over half the body length (height) of an average adult male. With his original dark green scales gaining a tinged of vibrant lime green colour on the outer edge of the scales.
As Yao Zi's body then evolves into and eventually becoming a 100 years old spirit beast, he rapidly sheds his own old discarded snakeskin, thereby replacing it with a newly evolved one which certainly suits the current him more. Additionally, a blended yellowish lime green coloured stone then forms at the centre of his forehead.
[You have steadily developed an inferior lower grade poison neidan! All poison-related spirit abilities are thereby increased by a certain minor degree, with the cost efficiency of conjuring up poison decreased!]
The yellowish-green gem embedded within the centre of Yao Zi's forehead is in fact an inferior poison neidan. The yellowish-green gem contains all the host knowledge and experiences on poison and the path of medicine, and withinside the small gem which is a semi-formed alchemical circle that certainly helps and aid the user in practising poison spirit related abilities.
With Yao Zi's current strength and ability, a full-body swing is enough to crush a large oak tree down, much less a human.
If Yao Zi were to coil around the body of a late-stage spiritmaster realm practitioner and squeeze his or her body. Their internal organs would certainly be squashed to bits or possibly burst right out from withinside their bodies.
Even an early stage spirit grandmaster would definitely have a hard time against a 100 years old spirit beast, and that is an ordinary spirit master with a low-grade spirit essence. But Yao Zi is a sentient spirit beast with a high intelligence comparable to that of a human, as he is capable of executing techniques and tactics against his enemies.
As dawn then approaches, Yao Zi then wakes up, feeling quite refresh and filled with the utmost energy, almost like his severe injuries never existed in the first place. His body's serious injuries have definitely healed overnight.
'I've certainly grown stronger.' Yao Zi thought so to himself, as he instinctively felt his body.
'Status!' Yao Zi then recited the keyword inside of his head in order to summon up his status screen.

'Wow, I'm certainly have become a lot stronger over the span of a night. That Iron Claw Mongoose was certainly tenacious and quite hard to beat. If I didn't have a great field advantage and a head start, then I would certainly be vanquished by the hands of that spirit beast.' Yao Zi thought as he grimaced unsightly.
'I've now gotten enough blood essence points after the recent kill to certain upgrade myself to the peak of the ordinary grade spirit beast bloodline.' Yao Zi thought so to himself excitedly, as he then immediately upgrades his spirit beast bloodline.
[You have strengthened your bloodline! Your spirit beast bloodline grade has been upgraded from Ordinary - {Middle Rank} to Ordinary - {High Rank}! Plus 5 attribute points into all stats attributes! 50 blood essence points have thereby been consumed!]
[You have strengthened your bloodline! Your spirit beast bloodline grade has been upgraded from Ordinary - {High Rank} to Ordinary - {Peak Rank}! Plus 5 attribute points into all stats attributes! 75 blood essence points have thereby been consumed!]
'10 total additional stats points have added onto all of my existing stats attribute, which is certainly a great increase when compared to what I was on my first day.' Yao Zi thought.
'Now I've only had 22 blood essence points left after I've upgraded my ordinary spirit beast bloodline to the peak stage.' Yao Zi thought to himself.
Yao Zi then had a quick look around at his own personal surroundings, as the size of his had certainly gotten a lot smaller, or maybe it is just him that has grown slightly bigger as a result of his recent advancement.
And what he found lying on the ground right next to him is pieces of his old snakeskin of when he was still a 10 years old spirit beast.
A curious little thought then passes through his head, 'Is that my old snakeskin?'
Yao Zi asked himself a rhetorical question which he already knew the answer of, as he then manipulated the strands of grass blades like an extension of his own body, much like his own hands.
The numerous strands of grass blades then pulled Yao Zi's old discarded snakeskin towards him, and then a curious idea then pops up inside of his head.
'Oh, I've got an idea!' He thought.
With the control over the numerous strands of grass blades, thanks to his {Dance of a Hundred Grass Blades} spirit beast ability. He then manipulated the numerous strands of grass blades to wrap around themselves tightly to form a bigger much thicker grass strand.
The grass strand gradually began to increase in thickness until it resembles the thickness of Yao Zi's old snake body of when he was still a 10 years old spirit beast.
And then tiny thin strands of the grass blade, sprung forth out from the thick grass vines, as it quickly pierces the outer part of Yao Zi's old discarded snakeskin, in which then it pulls together and attaches the discarded old snakeskin to the thick strand of vine grass.
The end result gave Yao Zi a semi-realistic snake puppet, which is made from Yao Zi's discarded old snakeskin of when he was still a 10 years old spirit beast.
'Neat.' Yao Zi excitedly exclaimed, as he began to manipulate the old snake puppet, moving it like an actual real-life snake with his thick grass vines.
[Skill proficiency has reached a maximum degree! The skill {Basic Puppetry Lv.1} has been acquired!]
'Huh?' Yao Zi then exclaimed, slightly surprised, as he stares at the currently floating blue notification screen that is in front of him.
'Puppetry.' He thought so to himself, and then a curious smile pops up, plastered on his face.
His imagination then wanders on about, conjuring up crazy ideas and plans with his creativity. 'With the puppetry skill at hand, then maybe I possibly could create a large army of grass puppets, that resembles me, under my command.'
'Or I could just utilise the life-size model of my old snakeskin when I was still a 10 years old spirit, that was made plainly into a grass puppet, as a decoy or bait to lure in predators or prey into my trap. And when they definitely entered my trap, I would then bind them by wrapping numerous strands of grass blades around their bodies, binding themselves to the ground and in place.' Yao Zi thought.
