"Brother Yuan, why can't this be done in multiple sessions? After all, we're not short on time?"

"Once the toxin reaches a lethal dose, without Shi Liu here to protect me, I have no confidence at all."

Wang Wu asked cautiously, because he truly had no confidence in this Companion Demon Vine of his.

Especially when faced with his mixed toxins, the Antidote Pills refined by Xiong Shiliu were nothing.

"No worries, no worries, I've called Niu Huanxi back. Bu Er would rather die than soak in cow dung, but I don't mind. Little brother, I'm counting on you."

Yuan Bupu said as he took out an Eighth-Grade Ginseng Vitality Pill.

Looking at its serious demeanor, Wang Wu couldn't help but ask, "Can't we wait for Shi Liu to return?"

"No, Shi Liu won't be back until the earliest before winter. He said he had something important to do, so how could we wait for that?"

"Alright, since that's the case, when do we start?"

"In three days, I'm going to find Niu Huanxi and reinforce him first."

Yuan Bupu chuckled, happily did a somersault, and quickly left.

Wang Wu pondered slightly, an important matter? Yet without taking Yuan Bupu or Wolf Bu'er, his two most capable subordinates. It seems Xiong Shiliu also likes to be a lone wolf, or perhaps he's gone into closed-door cultivation?

After thinking for a moment, Wang Wu consumed both the Eighth and Ninth Grade Ginseng Vitality Pills he had, gaining exactly 6000 points of vitality.

Then let's continue refining the Profound Iron.

For the next three days, at the cost of consuming 1500 points of vitality per day, he devoted all his efforts to refining the Profound Iron, gaining on average 15 points of Essence of Gold Qi each day, completely using up those 500 pounds of Profound Iron Ore.

This speed and efficiency are absolutely terrifying, so much so that even Yuan Bupu would be shocked.

But in reality, to Wang Wu, it was a natural progression. He relied on the Inner Breathing Technique, the circulation of Blood Qi, and three Vitality Clouds—such a foundation made cultivating the Lifebound Demon Soldiers naturally this fast.

Most importantly, the vitality supply was abundant.

So when Yuan Bupu returned with Old Niu, their shocked gaze, alongside Old Niu's baffled look, gave Wang Wu a small sense of accomplishment.

Indeed, his left front Bear Claw had been cultivated to Mortal Eighth Grade, significantly ahead of Old Niu.

It's worth mentioning, Mortal Seventh Grade requires 100 points of Essence of Gold Qi, Mortal Sixth Grade requires 150 points, and so forth. Mortal First Grade exactly needs 400 points, and continuing upward, accumulating 500 points means reaching Earth Ninth Grade. It continues with 50-point increments to Earth First Grade, and beyond, reaching 1000 points hits Celestial Ninth Grade.

Therefore, Wang Wu's attribute bar directly sets the limit at 1000.

Initially, this seemed quite hopeless, but now it appears the path of cultivation is indeed rugged.

"Lifebound Demon Soldiers of Mortal Eighth Grade, refining at such speed, little brother, you're almost rivaling Shi Liu," Yuan Bupu said with a deep sigh, shocked yet a touch regretful, for in his view, Xiong Wu could never become another Xiong Shiliu.

It's not that Shi Liu is intolerant, but there's no more resources to nurture.

Remember back when the Ape King and General Xuelang nurtured Shi Liu?

Now, looking at Shi Liu, he always seemed unfathomable.

Xiong Wu stood no chance.

Wang Wu, however, didn't think much of it, chuckling as he looked at Old Niu, "Old Niu, I heard your progress in cultivation is excellent, have you gained anything?"

"Ah, just average, compared to you third brother, with your Lifebound Demon Soldiers at Mortal Eighth Grade, I've only just perfected my Acupoint Opening Demon Pill and learned a minor Demon Technique."

As he said this, Old Niu's originally gloomy expression cleared up, his tail wagging happily, truly overjoyed.

"Nonsense, a Demon Technique is a Demon Technique, there's nothing minor about it. Xiong Wu, the Demon Technique Niu Huanxi mastered is called Commanding Grass and Trees, capable of using plants as soldiers. Once cultivated into a Divine Technique, it can be made into a Mountain Patrol Seal to control a forest, becoming a mountain king effortlessly. However, this Demon Technique easily incurs hatred and attacks from the Companion Races of the Ancient Tree Race in the Black Forest, but it's an opportunity too. If you can capture a few Companion Races alive and refine them into Grass and Wood Demon Soldiers, their power would rival your Companion Demon Vine,"

Yuan Bupu explained on the side, while Old Niu was delighted beyond measure, as if he'd stumbled into great fortune, loving every moment of it.

Wang Wu was genuinely happy for Old Niu as well. Their West Mountain Three Heroes had a great chance of becoming the Three Heroes of the Western Wilderness.

At this moment, he looked at Yuan Bupu, "Brother Yuan, shall we begin now?"

"Alright! I ask you, little brother, not to hold back. No, wait, I'm willing to take an oath with you, little brother, and Niu Huanxi, Pig Iron Beak—to become the Four Heroes of the Western Wilderness! Not asking to be born in the same year, same month, and same day, but to die on the same year, same month, and same day!"

Yuan Bupu suddenly declared solemnly, speaking with righteous resolve.

Upon hearing this, Old Niu was so excited that his hooves were trembling like they were tapping out a melody, as if he'd just struck it rich, because this fellow loved this kind of thing.

Wang Wu smiled playfully at Yuan Bupu, realizing that he too was afraid of death, he too was just as timid.

This guy is crafty as well.

"Great, great, great! The Four Heroes of the Western Wilderness sound far more formidable than the Three Heroes of the Western Wilderness. I think it's fitting. Third brother—no, now I should call you Fourth brother. Let's take an oath first! No, let's declare our ages, I'm fifty-one years old."

"Then I must be the eldest brother, as I'm already sixty-two this year."

"Eldest brother!"

"Second Brother!"

Yuan Bupu and Old Niu were both teary-eyed at this moment, looking deep into each other's eyes, with their hooves and paws clasping each other, and this was the moment a BGM should play.

"There should be wine at this moment!" Yuan Bupu choked as he spoke.

Before the words were out, with a whoosh, a wine jar flew over from a distance, landing steadily in Yuan Bupu's hands, courtesy of Wolf Bu'er who was watching from a distance enjoying the drama.

"It would have been great if Third Brother were here." Old Niu choked out as well.

Swish!

With a scream, the Little Wild Boar was also thrown over.

"Ah, who am I, where am I, spare me, great lord, I won't dare again, I'll confess, I'll confess everything..."

"Third Brother! Now Yuan Bupu and our West Mountain Three Heroes are sworn brothers again, from now on, we are the Four Heroes of the Western Wilderness, age-wise, it is the eldest, I'm the second, you are the third, and Xiong Wu is the fourth. Can you remember?"

Old Niu gently patted the head of the Little Wild Boar with his hoof, while the latter was completely bewildered, wondering what happened, am I dreaming? Is my big brother having a fit?

Yuan Bupu chuckled with a sincere smile, gently stroking the neck of the Little Wild Boar with his paw, "Come, Third Brother, call me Big Brother."

"Greetings, Big Brother sir! Third Brother bows to you!"

"Hahaha, no need for bowing, you and I should henceforth unite as brothers, our cooperation sharp as a knife, not seeking to be born on the same year, month, and day, but to die on the same year, month, and day!"

Yuan Bupu solemnly reiterated it once again, each word clear and powerful, his survival instinct truly maxed out.

Yet for the Little Wild Boar, it was truly a sacred ceremony, immediately believing it, and looking at the smiling Old Niu and Wang Wu, instantly called out with teary eyes, "Big Brother!"

"Third Brother!"

Such genuine emotion, Wang Wu held back laughter, turning to look at Wolf Bu'er, found that guy watching with relish, enjoying it like it's a play.

"Then let's begin, Fourth Brother."

Finally, having stocked up on the Undying Buff, Yuan Bupu said to Wang Wu with a determined gaze, it was ready to tackle the dungeon, such a fearless attitude made one doubt.

Wang Wu certainly wouldn't expose it, a smart person doesn't hit another smart person.

At the moment, he was also solemn, a murderous aura suddenly surging, and across, Yuan Bupu instinctively shivered, it's not easy, scaring a dignified Tank Level player like this, Companion Demon Vine, your ancestors are truly blessed.

"Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother, wait a moment, I just remembered, things don't have to be too complicated, let me do it!"

Saying this, Yuan Bupu quickly waved to Wolf Bu'er who was watching the show in the distance, the latter stepped forward, with three swipes of claws, several deep wounds of a dozen centimeters appeared on Yuan Bupu's back.

Ah, truly a wise choice.

Instead of letting the Demon Vine Tentacles find a path on their own, it's better to create a path, the process is cleaner, truly smart!

Wang Wu chuckled silently, yet remained unmoved on the surface, instantly activating the Companion Demon Vine, extending it to over a hundred meters long, with three massive tentacles as arrogant as a Poisonous Dragon.

Indeed, this is the true power of the Companion Demon Vine.

Of course, Wang Wu only used it to fulfill Yuan Bupu's request, to exert full effort, to fulfill the wish of killing it.

Otherwise, how could it showcase the brotherhood of our Four Heroes of the Western Wilderness if it's gentle and mild?

"Fourth Brother!"

Yuan Bupu let out a heaven-shattering scream, gulping down five Antidote Pills in one breath, it was truly frightened.

However, at this moment, Wang Wu controlled the Companion Demon Vine to inject 300 points of mixed toxins into the wounds on Yuan Bupu's back instantaneously, like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Then retracted the Companion Demon Vine, waiting for a ten-second countdown.

Even though Yuan Bupu was worthy of being a Tank Level player, in the first three seconds, it could actually remain calm with unchanged expression.

Until the fourth second, finally couldn't bear it, starting to foam at the mouth, limbs convulsing, endures one more second, also fell into the state of incontinence.

After all, 300 points are different from 100 points, the dosage is king.

But the Antidote Pills it frantically consumed still had some effect, which allowed it to regain some consciousness on the tenth second, but was immediately knocked down again by the second phase evolution of the mixed toxins!

And at this point, Old Niu had already begun puffing for rescue.

Wang Wu also rushed forward, holding down Yuan Bupu's chin, but this guy's strength was quite something, even in a crazy convulsing state, Wang Wu couldn't hold it down.

"Quick, help!"

With a shout, the Little Wild Boar rushed up to hold down one arm, Wolf Bu'er held down the other arm, Old Niu pinned the two legs, and Niu Xiaocao emerged from somewhere to hold down the last leg.

With the combined strength of the five demons, they finally managed to control Yuan Bupu, Wang Wu's Demon Vine tentacles started stomach pumping directly, well, primarily to recover the toxins, while also reclaiming some vitality.

This Yuan Bupu, being the top general under Xiong Shiliu, must be quite wealthy, absorbing more vitality value, and then dividing it equally among them, how delightful!
