As Jiang Qiong went deeper, a faint fishy smell began to permeate the surrounding air, and this smell made Jiang Qiong frown slightly.

This smell is most likely related to that ancient ferocious beast.

He moved forward cautiously, the sword in his hand emitting a faint light, illuminating the road ahead.

Suddenly, Jiang Qiong stopped and his eyes were attracted by a huge stone chamber in front of him.

In the center of the stone chamber, there is a huge stone platform, on which is placed a huge egg.

The surface of this egg is covered with hard scales and emits a faint red light. It is obviously an egg laid by the ancient ferocious beast.

Jiang Qiong was filled with mixed emotions. He knew that this egg contained great power, and if he could hatch it, he might be able to obtain a powerful spirit beast.

But at the same time, he also knew that once the life in this egg hatched, it might become a new source of disaster.

He slowly approached the stone platform and carefully observed the egg. The surface of the egg exuded warmth, as if life was growing inside it.

Jiang Qiong reached out and gently touched the eggshell. He could feel the powerful vitality contained in it.

At this moment, the eggshell suddenly vibrated slightly, as if the life inside felt the touch from the outside world.

Jiang Qiong was startled and immediately took a few steps back, looking at the egg vigilantly.

The vibration became more and more intense, the cracks on the eggshell gradually widened, and a powerful breath leaked out from the cracks.

Jiang Qiong knew that he had to make a decision immediately, whether to protect the egg or destroy it to prevent future trouble.

He took a deep breath, mobilized the internal strength in his body, and prepared to deal with any possible situation.

However, just as he was about to make a move, the eggshell suddenly cracked and a young creature poked its head out.

The eyes of this young beast were clear and innocent. It looked at the world around it curiously, completely lacking the terrifying aura of an adult beast.

An inexplicable emotion surged in Jiang Qiong's heart. He looked at the young beast, and the murderous intent in his heart gradually dissipated.

He knew that the cub was not yet capable of posing a threat, and that its fate should not be determined by its birth.

He decided to keep the young animal with him, teach it and protect it personally, and let it grow into a spiritual animal that would benefit the world.

Jiang Qiong reached out and gently stroked the cub's head. The cub seemed to feel his kindness and let out a childish cry.

Jiang Qiong smiled slightly, he knew that this would be the beginning of a new journey.

He held the cub in his arms, turned and left the stone chamber to continue his adventure.

In his heart, he is full of expectations and visions for the future.

He believed that as long as he trained it with care, this cub would eventually become his most loyal companion.

There are still many secrets in the ruins waiting for him to explore, but Jiang Qiong already has a new goal in his mind.

Jiang Qiong held the baby in her arms, walked through the dark secret realm, and finally walked out of the ancient secret realm.

The sunlight fell on his body, warm and bright, as if rescuing him from the haze.

He took a deep breath, felt the air outside, and his heart was filled with anticipation for the future.

He set out on the road to the county town. The scenery along the way was picturesque, with green mountains and green waters complementing each other, and birds singing happily on the branches.

After several days of trekking, Jiang Qiong finally arrived at the bustling market town.

The market town is the most lively place in the world of immortal cultivation. It has all kinds of spiritual objects, magical instruments, and elixirs. The bustling flow of people makes this place full of vitality.

Walking into the market town, Jiang Qiong was shocked by the scene before him.

The streets are lined with colorful stalls, and the vendors are shouting enthusiastically. The cries of hawking are one after another, as if performing a silent symphony.

The air was filled with a variety of aromas, including the fresh fragrance of spiritual herbs, the strong scent of elixirs, and the sweetness of fresh fruits.

People were walking between the stalls with excited smiles on their faces, and it seemed that everyone was chasing the treasure in their hearts.

Jiang Qiong found a suitable location, rented a stall, and prepared to sell the newly hatched ferocious beast cubs.

He gently placed the cub on the stall. The cub looked around curiously, its pink nose trembling slightly, as if it was full of curiosity about this new world.

Soon, a crowd of onlookers gradually gathered and cast curious and surprised glances at the young animal.

Jiang Qiong smiled slightly and began to introduce the characteristics of the cub to the customers passing by.

"This is the cub of an ancient ferocious beast. It has a gentle temperament and a promising future!" he said enthusiastically.

The first customer who came forward was a middle-aged man in a gorgeous purple robe, with a handsome face and a shrewd look in his eyes.

He looked at the cub carefully, with a smile on his face: "Little brother, I heard that this cub is very valuable. Give me a realistic price."

Jiang Qiong's heart moved, knowing that this was a knowledgeable person, so he said: "This young beast is very spiritual. If it can be trained well, it will definitely become a powerful spiritual beast in the future. The price of one thousand spiritual stones is definitely worth it."

The middle-aged man frowned slightly, as if considering it. He gently stroked the cub's head, and the cub made a soft cry, as if responding to his touch.

The man's smile deepened: "One thousand spirit stones? I see this cub is still young, can you make it cheaper?"

Jiang Qiong's heart tightened, knowing that the customer wanted to lower the price. He said rationally: "The bloodline of this young animal is extremely precious. If you miss it, you will never find it again in the future."

The man hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I'll offer 800 spirit stones, which is a fair price. How about it?"

Jiang Qiong struggled in his heart. Although eight hundred spirit stones was indeed a good price, he did not want to give up the value of this young beast easily.

So, he smiled slightly and said firmly: "One thousand spirit stones is definitely worth it!"

In the end, after some bargaining, the man could only sigh and leave.

In the following time, Jiang Qiong met several more customers.

A burly young man, wearing coarse clothes and with a sunny smile on his face, showed great interest in the cubs and said frankly that he wanted to take them home to raise.

Jiang Qiong introduced the characteristics of the cubs to him, and the young man kept asking questions about raising them, appearing to be particularly serious.

"This young beast needs to be fed spiritual herbs regularly so that it can grow healthily." Jiang Qiong explained patiently.

The young man nodded in agreement and finally wanted to close the deal at a price of nine hundred spirit stones, but was rejected by Jiang Qiong.

Another woman in a green Taoist robe came over. She had an elegant temperament and a lively look between her brows.

She observed the cub carefully, with a strange light in her eyes. "This cub is so cute, I wonder what its abilities are?" she asked.

Jiang Qiong smiled slightly and replied: "Although it is still small now, it has unlimited potential and will definitely become a powerful spiritual beast in the future."

The woman smiled gently, and seemed to be very satisfied with Jiang Qiong's answer. Finally, she took out a thousand spirit stones without hesitation. After the transaction, she gently stroked the cub with a doting look in her eyes.

After the transaction was completed, Jiang Qiong was filled with joy. He finally successfully sold the cub for one thousand spirit stones.

He gently stroked the young animal that had just been taken away, feeling somewhat reluctant, but he understood that this was a path leading to a greater future.

He packed up his stall and prepared to leave the bustling market, thinking about his next plan in his mind.

Walking out of the market, the sun was still shining brightly, the vendors on both sides of the street were still busy, and the bustling flow of people made him feel warm.

However, just as he was about to embark on his journey home, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his way.

These people were big and strong with rough faces, and they were obviously not good people. The leader was a man wearing black leather armor, a mask on his face, and a fierce look in his eyes.

He looked at Jiang Qiong coldly, with a disdainful smile on his face: "Boy, I saw you sold it for a good price just now, you should have a lot of spirit stones in your hand, right?"

Jiang Qiong's heart tightened, realizing that he might be in trouble. He took a step back and said in a deep voice, "What do you want? I have nothing to give you."

"Oh?" The black-clothed man's smile became more sinister. "We don't want your things. We only want the spirit stone in your hand. Hand it over, and maybe we can let you go."

Jiang Qiong was burning with anger. Even though he knew he was no match for this group of people, he did not want to surrender.

He said calmly: "Why should I give you the spirit stones I worked so hard to earn? If you want, you can try."

Before he finished speaking, the crowd around him began to stir, as if they were all paying attention to the conflict that was about to break out.

A trace of disdain flashed in the eyes of the man in black. He waved his hand, and several people behind him pounced towards Jiang Qiong.

Jiang Qiong's heart trembled and he quickly stepped back, trying to avoid the attack.

However, the black-clad man's men were all very skilled and surrounded him in an instant.

Jiang Qiong became anxious and knew that he could not retreat any further and had to fight back.

"If you want spirit stones, you can try my strength!" Jiang Qiong roared, forming seals with his hands, mobilizing the spiritual power in his body, and preparing to cast the spells he learned in the secret realm.

He transformed his spiritual power into a ray of light and rushed towards the man in black.

The light flashed like a sharp sword, heading straight for the opponent.

Seeing this, the man in black's face changed slightly and he quickly dodged to the side. However, Jiang Qiong's attack was not over yet. Another fireball flew out and hit one of his younger brothers behind him.

"Stop him quickly!" the man in black shouted, and several of his men behind him mobilized their spiritual power to try to resist Jiang Qiong's attack.

However, the power of Jiang Qiong's spell should not be underestimated. The fireball drew an arc in the air and instantly knocked back one of his men. The flames burned on his body and he let out a shrill scream.

The crowd around began to riot, as if shocked by the sudden battle.

"You kid, you actually dare to resist!" The man in black roared, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes. He no longer hesitated, mobilized all the spiritual power in his body, and attacked Jiang Qiong.

"I'm not afraid of you!" Jiang Qiong's heart was excited. Although the enemy in front of him was powerful, he would never give up easily.

He quickly formed a complex seal, preparing to launch a stronger attack.

At this moment, a clear cheer suddenly came from the crowd around: "Look, I'm here to help you!"

Jiang Qiong turned around in surprise and found that it was the woman in the green Taoist robe. She was holding a green magic staff in her hand and was flying towards them.

The appearance of the woman made Jiang Qiong feel excited, as if he saw hope.

"You go quickly, I'll deal with them!" The woman shouted at Jiang Qiong while running, her tone firm.

The man in black saw this and smiled coldly: "One more person means one more trouble. Don't even think about escaping today!"

He waved his hand and summoned a ball of black spiritual power, which hit the woman. The woman's face changed, and she quickly raised her staff to block the attack.

The two forces collided in the air, making a deafening sound. The people around them retreated one after another, fearing that they would be affected.

"Hurry, now!" the woman shouted, reaching out to Jiang Qiong, signaling him to leave quickly.

Jiang Qiong's heart moved. Although he was reluctant to abandon this woman, he knew that the current situation was not optimistic.

He took a deep breath, turned around and rushed to the other end of the street, silently saying in his heart: "I will definitely come back to repay you!"

However, the man in black did not intend to let him go. He roared and chased after him with the rest of his men.

Jiang Qiong was running on the street, spiritual power surging in his body. He tried to stay calm and look for a way to escape.

Along the way, he passed through the bustling market, bypassed the alleys, and finally stopped in a remote corner, panting, his heart full of anxiety.

The battle just now made him realize that he was still a weakling in this world of immortal cultivation, and he had to become stronger in order to protect himself and those around him.

At this moment, he vaguely heard footsteps coming from behind him. Jiang Qiong's heart tightened, knowing that the man in black and his men would catch up soon.

Jiang Qiong was breathing heavily, feeling extremely anxious. The footsteps in his ears were getting closer and closer, as if a giant beast was approaching him.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. The image of the woman just now flashed through his mind, the brave and fearless woman who was willing to help him.

Her determination made him realize that he could no longer back down.

"I can't run away anymore!" he whispered to himself, with a gleam of determination in his eyes.

At this moment, the voice of the man in black came like a cold wind: "Boy, the monk can escape but the temple cannot. You have to stay here today no matter what!"

Jiang Qiong's heart trembled, he turned around, and locked his eyes on the man in black and his men who were about to catch up.

He knew that he had to demonstrate his strength before they arrived.

He formed seals with his hands, mobilized the spiritual power in his body, silently recited the magic formula in his mind, and prepared to launch a more powerful attack.

"Come on, I'm not afraid of you!" Jiang Qiong's voice rang out in the air, carrying a fearless momentum.

The man in black saw Jiang Qiong finally stop, and a sneer appeared on his lips. The black spiritual power in his hand condensed into shape and rushed towards Jiang Qiong: "You really don't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is!"

Just as the black-clothed man's attack was about to fall, Jiang Qiong suddenly waved his hands, and his spiritual power instantly turned into a bright beam of light, rushing straight into the sky, as if to tear the world apart. (End of this chapter)
