12. Cultivation

As time went by, the wolf and the young girl Huang Biren grew up and with the white wolf's acting, the young girl came to view the wolf as her best friend.

When Huang Biren was attending her lessons, the white wolf sat by her feet, ever the loyal dog. With its great intellect, the wolf was able to learn about human society, their customs, culture, geography, languages, and even how to read and write.

As a noble, the young girl had also been required to learn things such as horse riding, painting, archery, calligraphy, and many other things that her parents thought would make her the perfect woman like her older sister Huang Shengyi.

Huang Biren proved to be a child protege as she learned and mastered all these things by the time she was twelve.

As for her cultivation, she proved that she was as good as her elder sister if not better.

Every night after her lessons, she would sit cross-legged in her bedroom and cultivate using her family's cultivation technique, the Rumbling Tiger . This technique had been found by the founder of the Huang clan in a forbidden ground. It is said that this technique was the most powerful in the Tinding Kingdom and it was due to this technique that the Huang clan was able to become the fifth ruling family in the kingdom despite the obstacles put in place by the original four ruling families.

Whenever Huang Biren cultivated, the white wolf would observe her every movement very closely. It wanted to find a way to increase its power by any means.

As the years went by, the wolf learned a great deal about cultivation and concluded after he had taken a look at the Rumbling Tiger cultivation technique, that demonic beasts could not cultivate human techniques . The bodies of demonic beasts and those of the humans were simply too different.

Even knowing this, the wolf's craving for power led it to try cultivating using the technique, the results were devastating for the wolf's body. It sput out blood for days and its internal organs were damaged. The only reason it survived was because Huang Biren had pleaded with her parents for a healing alchemy pill that was able to heal the wolf's injuries.

After this incident, the wolf knew for sure that demonic beasts couldn't cultivate using techniques meant for humans.

It had no choice but to cultivate as beasts do, by simply absorbing world qi into their bodies, nourishing them slowly and with time, their cultivation would increase. Still, the white wolf did not give up on finding a better way, this was because the beast method was extremely slow and required tens of years to see any progress . For a demonic beast filled to the brim with vengeance and hatred, this was unacceptable.
