According to logic, "Transformation" should be unreachable by Divine Infant Realm if cause and effect have been touched.

However, at this moment, Song Yan completed the final test.

That is, if "Transformation" happens first, followed by eye contact with the Divine Infant, then... the cause and effect established with the Divine Infant expert still holds.

Not only does it hold, but it transforms into a greater cause and effect, making him even more concealed.

This made the Ancient Devourer Ancestor overjoyed, allowing Song Yan to further understand "Transformation."

"Good!"

The Ancient Devourer Ancestor praised, then said, "From now on, stay in the main Wolf Race clan for cultivation, and I will discuss with the Fox Ancestor to find you a new partner."

Song Yan said, "Ancestor, I only want the original partner."

The Ancient Devourer Ancestor was taken aback, showing his big teeth, and asked, "Why?"

Song Yan replied, "I've grown familiar with it."

The Ancient Devourer Ancestor laughed and said, "Good, good, you must have trusted that little fox demon, so we won't change it."

Song Yan thanked him.

After he left, a seven-tailed fox shadow slipped out from behind the screen.

The expression of the Ancient Devourer Ancestor suddenly became cold and sinister.

The seven-tailed fox demon laughed and said, "Your Wolf Race has produced another genius, this is a sign of rejuvenation."

The Ancient Devourer Ancestor replied solemnly, "If it was before the arrival of the dark calamity, I would be happy, but now... I only regret that it's not my offspring.

Even within the same clan, there are personal connections and distances, just a change of partner, and this junior dares to defy me, what if it gains higher positions?

The development of the clan is no longer important in these times, what matters is that the clan must always be under my control.

I already have a grandson controlling the 'Demon Sound Whale' bloodline, I don't need a second one.

But killing it isn't necessary... you, give me an idea."

The seven-tailed fox demon said, "You forgot, Vilampu gave us fifty years to select some demons for it. Now the deadline is near, only a few years remain.

Vilampu said nothing, but I know this journey is bound to be perilous.

Isn't letting this kid lead the team the perfect scenario?"

The Ancient Devourer Ancestor nodded and said, "Let's do that."

...

...

Several months later...

Song Yan brought three Corpse-Eating Wolves, and four low-tailed fox demons from the Fox Race, to the capital of the Vilan Insect Country for training.

Their training targets turned out to be corpses tainted with a tiny amount of Netherworld's Qi.

The training content was also quite strange.

They did not need to defeat these corpses, as the Netherworld's Qi on these corpses was very minimal, and their power was only at the early stage of the Crimson Palace.

These corpses were settled in a large, underground maze that concealed their aura, primarily consisting of enclosed corridors, with the entrance in a secluded palace, where numerous hidden arrays were set to guard against the Celestial Calamity Beast.

The fox demons' task was to cast Illusion Techniques, attempting to bewilder these Netherworld corpse demons.

The wolf demons' task, in the maze, especially at the intersections, was to precisely use howls to remotely lure the corpses over, as the closed corridor environment allowed the wolf demons' sound to have a great effect.

Eight demons trained day after day, and the resources and treatment provided by the Vilan Demon Race were good.

They actively offered blood to "enhance sound wave power," for the four wolf demons' cultivation, also treating the fox demons well.

...

A year passed in the blink of an eye.

Curiously, the Vilan Insect Race did not provide any tasks, only continuously letting the Fox and Wolf Races undergo training.

On this day...

Wolf demon Song Yan and Hu Yue walked into the palace, only to see a red-robed, silver-faced insect demon standing at the entrance, with an impressive aura around it.

Upon seeing the partner standing like a fool, Hu Yue swiftly swept its fox tail onto his leg, then respectfully said first, "Greetings Purple Mansion senior."

Wolf demon Song Yan then realized and hurriedly said, "Greetings senior."

The insect demon nodded slightly, then said in a booming voice, "Just call me Angzu."

"Angzu."

"Angzu."

The two demons greeted again.

The self-proclaimed Angzu insect demon said, "No urgency today, wait a moment."

The two demons stood respectfully to the side.

Soon, the other three pairs of fox and wolf partners arrived.

Only then did Angzu say, "Today's training difficulty will be slightly increased. I will assist you in completing it."

Wolf demon Song Yan remained silent, while another foolish wolf demon flatteringly said, "Angzu, we can complete this training ourselves, no need to trouble you."

Angzu quirked its voice, "Today's Netherworld corpses are Purple Mansion corpses painstakingly found by our clan's great figures who conceal from heaven, kid, do you still think you can complete it?"

That foolish wolf demon hurriedly retreated, while the surrounding fox wolves laughed mockingly.

Angzu continued, "Train well, if successful, not only will resources be abundant, but you'll also be provided with Profound Treasures, cultivation techniques, anything you need! This is even better than within your clans! Such fortune... seize it well, don't miss it!"

The fox demons and wolf demons were immensely joyful and hurriedly thanked.

...

...

At night.

Hu Yue and the wolf demon Song Yan sat before a large pot.

The ingredients in the pot were ready, while sounds of sobbing came from afar.

Hu Yue licked his tongue, tilting his head to ask, "Do you prefer fried, or directly holding the head and dunking it into the pot to boil in clear water?"

Wolf demon Song Yan said, "I'm cultivating 'Precepts Zen', I don't eat human flesh."

Hu Yue looked around, seeing no others, then snorted softly and said, "Enjoy good days while they last, this journey is said to be a great fortune, but... alas..."

Wolf demon Song Yan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Hu Yue's eyes flickered with unusual color, smiled and said, "But it's very difficult! Yet riches are sought amidst danger, difficulty is normal."

Wolf demon Song Yan lifted the pot and said, "You shouldn't eat it either."

Hu Yue was stunned and said, "Why!"

Wolf demon Song Yan replied, "Unsincere!"

Hu Yue sat down again, looked at wolf demon Song Yan, sighed deeply and said, "I don't know if I should thank you or hate you. You are valued by the clan ancestor, yet you refuse to change partners, this kindness, I am very grateful. But thus, accompany you into such a plight...

After saying that, it lifted its fox head and said leisurely, "Where in the world is such a good thing? The Vilan Insect Race's actions remind me of raising pigs."

Wolf demon Song Yan mocked, "You're overthinking?"

Hu Yue said, "Forget it, the arrow is on the string, already unable to escape the relation, let's strive together, alas... alas... why are you still holding the pot?"

Wolf demon Song Yan said, "Today, I'm going to eat beef!"

Hu Yue sighed, "Never mind, do as you please."

...

...

In a blink, another two years passed.

The fox and wolf demons felt their treatment getting better and better, largely because their training had yielded good results.

Especially the wolf demons, they can remotely use ultra-penetrating sound waves in enclosed corridors to lure Purple Mansion corpses.

On this day...

When wolf demon Song Yan and Hu Yue once again arrived at the maze, they were greeted by another insect demon as tall as a yard, instead of Angzu.

The terrifying aura, although restrained, nevertheless pressed Hu Yue instantly to his knees.

Wolf demon Song Yan also knelt.

Kneeling to him was merely an atmospheric gesture.

Hu Yue trembled and said, "Divine... Divine Infant senior..."

The insect demon said indifferently, "Still call me Angzu."

In an instant, eight demons gathered.

The Divine Infant Angzu said in a booming voice, "Today's target is a bit special."

After a brief contemplation, it continued, "Perhaps you young ones have heard the name of Netherworld Corpse Demon, today... your training target is the Netherworld Corpse Demon."

After speaking, it looked at wolf demon Song Yan and said, "Gu Chengyi, you are the most outstanding presence in this generation of the Wolf Race, I want you to, as always, be able to use howls from afar to attract the Netherworld Corpse Demon. As for having attracted them, we will naturally fend them off."

Hu Yue's legs were already trembling.

Wolf demon Song Yan, in a foolish manner, was joyful and brimming with energy, saying, "Will carry out the mission with honor!!"

As he spoke, his heart was already bursting with joy.

He... finally waited for this moment.

All this training was preparing for the Celestial Venerable Secret Realm.

Even without Po Xu, these demons began making other preparations.

And the howling of the Corpse-Eating Wolf Race was their method.

Hu Yue's estimation was accurate, they... were merely cannon fodder to lure the guards of the Celestial Venerable Secret Realm.

When that day comes, Emperor Shixiang, Vilampu, and Demon Mother Su Yao are sure to appear entirely.
