The Master of Beasts
Chapter 913 - 312: The White Tiger Tribe’s Banquet (Part 2)
Now, Chen Jiuge uses a slow nurturing method, so after this nurturing is completed, the Hundred Herbs Snake has only broken through a small realm, reaching the Three Flowers Heavenly Immortal.
"Silver Ring Snake?"
The dark green snake scales have transformed into black and white, but compared to the Silver Ring Snake nurtured by another mutation method, its white is somewhat dull.
"No, the evolution path seems to have changed!"
Upon further investigation, Chen Jiuge discovered that the evolution formula that appeared for the Hundred Herbs Snake this time was completely different from before!
"It's a pity that spiritual beasts nurtured in this way cannot undergo a second nurturing in a short time; they need time to digest and consolidate."
Although curious about the Hundred Herbs Snake, most of its variants were not very useful; only a few had production capabilities, and even those were far less beneficial than the initial Life Rabbit.
"Forget it, let's take it slow for now; there will be plenty of time to research in the future!"

White Tiger Tribe
More than a year ago, after leaving the Star Moon Tribe and leading his followers to establish the White Tiger Tribe, Bai Li's life was not perfect, but it was considerably better than being dependent in the Star Moon Tribe.
"I should have come out independently long ago. Although the resources do not compare to the Star Moon Tribe, at least I have a place of my own to settle in peace!"
Bai Li closed the latest resource report sent by his subordinates, and although he was not very satisfied with the amount of resources, he understood that the current power of the White Tiger Tribe was fragile, and the income they had was thanks to nearby tribes and settlements respecting the strength of the Star Moon Tribe.
"Clan Leader, Bai He is about to break through!"
A figure hurriedly rushed into the tent with a look of delight.
"What? Bai He is about to break through?" Bai Li showed a trace of astonishment on his face, followed by a burst of joy.
Breaking through to Daluo is not uncommon, besides Bai He who is about to break through, Bai Li has about as many warriors who have reached the Daluo level, otherwise, the surrounding tribes wouldn't hand over resources even with the Star Moon Tribe's consideration.
"Good, good, good!"
"Hahaha, Feng Cang said that leaving the Star Moon Tribe was like a fish leaving water, but I think it's more like a dragon entering the sea, soaring to the sky!"
Even if an Alien Race Daluo were numerous, they would still be outsiders. Even in numbers, Bai Li had to worry about these seemingly simple warriors potentially betraying him due to certain incidents.
But with his own clan, he didn't have this concern.
Half a month later, to celebrate Bai He's successful breakthrough, Bai Li held a grand banquet, where everyone in the tribe was entitled to participate.
Yet, in the midst of the expanding White Tiger Tribe, few people stayed in the tribe, mostly those being the warriors' family members.
In contrast, all the elites of the White Tiger Clan, except for some who were always marginalized and acting as supervisors outside, were actually all in the tribe!
Feng Cang, who was invited over, immediately noticed this situation.
Looking at the joyous Bai Li beside him, Feng Cang furrowed his brows, reminding: "Bai Li, why are all the elites of your clan in the tribe?"
"?" Bai Li was a bit puzzled: "Shouldn't they be? These are the elites of my White Tiger Clan. What if something happens if I send them all out?"
"But you can't almost never let them out, right? Aside from the young children, if I recall correctly, your White Tiger Clan has around 300 people!"
Feng Cang couldn't understand. The warriors of the Heavenly Gift Realm are rather simple-minded, but they can't be treated like fools. Seeing over two hundred adult White Tiger clanspeople at this so-called tribal celebration banquet was unbelievable.
These exquisitely dressed White Tigers were as clean as naive children. If they had battled outside, Feng Cang wouldn't have believed it for a moment.
"Bai Li, you shouldn't treat them so differently. To put it bluntly, the ability for us to stand here and establish our tribe heavily relies on these warriors. Even though there are closeness differences, such discrimination is undue!" Feng Cang advised.
"Should I treat these natives and my tribesmen equally?" Bai Li's face turned from clear to cloudy.
Back when in the True Realm Star Moon City, Bai Li had little regard for Feng Cang, who carried the demeanor of a wealthy mortal owner; it seemed like being content with mediocrity was acceptance. Though faced with limited lifespan, which was inevitable, now having replenished much of his lifespan and even having hope for the next breakthrough, Feng Cang still remained unchanged, diminishing Bai Li's esteem for him.
Were it not for both of them being in the same situation, Bai Li would have no desire to collaborate with Feng Cang; wasn't Song Bei more appealing?
Recalling his subordinate not even getting to meet Song Bei, a shadow darkened Bai Li's eyes.
But consider that you are a Daluo, no matter how powerful Chen Jiuge is, he's fundamentally just a Golden Immortal. No matter the remarkable talent, he is still just a Golden Immortal, why should his importance be so acknowledged?
"I've spoken too much!"
Feng Cang shook his head slightly, knowing that Bai Li, with his highborn vicious beast bloodline, wouldn't heed his advice.
What seemed incredibly unfair to Feng Cang might indeed be normal for Bai Li.
After sipping a few drinks lightly, Feng Cang left, citing many important issues within the tribe.
As the plump Feng Cang struggled to leave the White Tiger Tribe, Bai Li sneered slightly: "In the entire Exotic Beast Tribe, there isn't even a single Daluo level Mountain and Sea Strange Beast, it seems you are getting anxious, aren't you?"
The rank of the six who came to the Heavenly Gift Realm varied from low to high: Feng Cang, Bai Li, Shuibing, Chen Jiuge, Nightmare, and Jialouluo. (Since Shuibing and Song Bei were in league, they were not counted separately.)
Chen Jiuge had only a Sorrowful Girl back then, but now it's heard that he used their collective Nine Yang Land to nurture nine Daluo, marking him the one with the greatest progress in strength.
Thinking of this made Bai Li's eyes darkened: "Clearly, these were our collective resources; why should you Chen Jiuge alone reap the benefits!"
"If my White Tiger Clan could also cultivate there with Shuibing's secret formula, at least a couple more Daluo White Tigers would emerge!"
"But with the first Daluo emerging in my White Tiger Clan now, the second and third are not far off either!"
The banquet continued, and the enormous bonfire cast unmistakable light on everyone's expressions.
The unrestrained and arrogant White Tiger clanspeople, the cautious Heavenly Gift Realm warriors' families, the wildly playful young White Tigers, the indigenous kids nestled in their mothers' embrace.
"Old, old, I can't drink anymore!"
Feeling a sense of triumph, Bai Li was somewhat unrestrained tonight, guzzling down wine, causing a mildly drunken haze on his face as he had not used his immortal power to dispel the effects.
Muttering a couple of times, Bai Li realized that Bai He, the guest of honor at this celebration banquet, was not present?
"Bai He, that kid is low-key on normal days, but on such a big day, how can he be absent? Being too low-key is not a good thing!"
Muttering a couple of times, Bai Li decided to check out the usually discreet young man.
"Where did Bai He go?" Bai Li casually grabbed a passing White Tiger youth and asked.
"Ah, Elder Bai Li, Brother Bai He seems to have returned to his cave mansion!"
"Returned to the cave mansion?" Bai Li froze for a moment, then laughed: "Truly diligent, fine, I will visit in person!"
This White Tiger youth opened his mouth as if to say something, but the slightly intoxicated Bai Li didn't pay attention. As for stopping Bai Li, the young man didn't have that courage.
Walking out of the bustling school grounds, looking at the varying heights of residents' dwellings on both sides, Bai Li revealed a trace of dissatisfaction on his face: "Too poor, too poor, after resources are available, I must demolish all these and rebuild, following the standards of the Star Moon Tribe, no, even better than the Star Moon Tribe!"
Chen Jiuge had no knowledge of Bai Li's grand ambitions, but even if he did, he would probably just laugh and shake his head.
The establishment of the Star Moon Tribe had utilized resources from a small world and True Realm cultivators repeatedly activated array plates and used magic at the cost of immense Spirit Stone loss, taking ten years to build. Bai Li's intent to reach that level with the White Tiger Tribe was almost impossible.
Yet in his slight drunkenness, Bai Li hadn't considered this.
