Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 256 Nether Grass!
"Stop talking nonsense and get out of here! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

Gu Yuan snorted coldly and spoke bluntly.

In this small world of the Red Dragon, what cultivators fear most are not the ferocious beasts and monsters, or the various dangerous places, but other cultivators.

At least ferocious beasts and monsters can be avoided in advance, and they are often less intelligent. Unless you are extremely unlucky, as long as you are cautious and prepare in advance, you will generally be fine.

And those dangerous and bad places can also be avoided in advance.

But other cultivators are different. To put it bluntly, cultivators enter this small world for various opportunities and benefits.

Moreover, in this strange place, there is no distinction between immortals and demons, no good and evil, and even fewer constraints from the outside world. In addition, because treasures can confuse people's minds, it is easier for cultivators who enter here to magnify the malice and evil thoughts in their hearts.

To put it bluntly, no one here can be trusted. Once someone wants to get close to you, no matter what they say, even if it is exaggerated, you must not believe it.

In Gu Yuan's opinion, he had just made it clear that he didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs, but this guy still came up to him. He must have had bad intentions!
The escaping light immediately stopped, and the young monk's face turned grim. However, he quickly suppressed his anger, forced a smile, and said:

"This fellow Daoist must have misunderstood. My last name is Sun Zhou, and I mean no harm. I just want to discuss something good with you. If you disagree, I will leave immediately."

As he spoke, Sun Zhou took out a purple-red spiritual herb and said, "Look, fellow Daoist, this is Nether Grass, which has the unique effect of nourishing the soul. This Nether Grass is a full seven thousand years old. Even a great Jindan cultivator would be tempted by it."

"Just now, when I was collecting this medicine, I accidentally disturbed a pair of ghost-faced owls. These beasts are the most vengeful. Now they are chasing me closely and have been chasing me for three days and three nights."

"If you are willing to help lure away one of the ghost-faced owls behind, I will give you this Nether Grass, how about that?"

Sun Zhou explained the whole story at a very fast pace.

"Netherworld grass?"

Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows, and was obviously surprised.

This Nether Grass is a rather special spiritual medicine that generally only grows in extremely yin places, such as places where yin veins grow, or in graveyards where too many creatures have died.

It often needs to absorb enough Yin Qi and the soul energy released after the death of living creatures in order to grow.

This thing is indeed as Sun Zhou said, it can nourish the soul and is very beneficial for cultivators.

Especially the one in Sun Zhou's hand, which is seven thousand years old and has stronger medicinal properties. It can barely be called the king of medicine.

The key point is that in addition to being able to be eaten raw to strengthen the soul, this Nether Grass is also the main ingredient of an elixir called "Shen Yun Dan".

This Soul-Yunshen Pill is very effective in helping cultivators break through to the Core Formation stage. It can even be said that with this pill, the chances of achieving the Core Formation stage increase by several percent.

Therefore, there is no doubt that this Nether Grass is a treasure.

But... Gu Yuan doesn't believe that such a good thing will fall from the sky.

"If I agree, won't you gain nothing? Are you willing to let this good thing fall into my hands?"

A hint of sarcasm appeared in Gu Yuan's mouth.

Sun Zhou revealed a wry smile: "To be honest, fellow Daoist, I actually collected two Nether Grasses at that time. The other one is even older than the one I have."

Ga-ga-ga-ga-

He was about to say something else, but at this moment, a strange and shrill cry came from the distance.

The sound was sharp and shrill, like a crow's cry, but much more unpleasant than a crow's cry, and it also contained a strange power. When people heard it, they would feel upset, dizzy, and as if they wanted to vomit.

Immediately afterwards, two black shadows flew over from a distance.

The two black shadows were strange birds, their appearance somewhat bizarre, their wingspan only about two meters, similar to a vulture, but with a longer body. Their feathers were dull gray, with patches missing, making them look quite ugly. Their claws and beaks were like hooks, and their faces were gray and white like ghosts, flashing with a cold light and extremely sharp. Especially their eyes, which were green and had a strange aura, giving off a chilling feeling!

Although the two ghost-faced owls are small in size, the aura they exude is strange and powerful. Although they are not golden elixirs, they faintly have the aura of golden elixir monsters.

Seeing the two ghost-faced owls flying over, Sun Zhou's face changed slightly, and then he saw Gu Yuan frowning and waving his hand: "This matter has nothing to do with me. As for the Nether Grass, I am not interested in it either. You should handle it yourself."

After saying that, he shot out into the distance.

Sun Zhou, who stayed where he was, had an extremely ugly expression on his face, and then a strong resentment appeared in his eyes. He rolled his eyes, sneered, and actually followed.

"Ok?"

Gu Yuan was flying when he suddenly realized that Sun Zhou was catching up from behind. His expression suddenly turned gloomy, and a bit of coldness appeared on his face. He stopped flying and stared at the flying Sun Zhou: "You bastard, you keep offending me. Do you really think I dare not kill you?!"

The voice was low and filled with murderous intent.

As he spoke, a silver sword light flew out from his sleeve, like a silver dragon with bared fangs and claws, and rushed towards Sun Zhou.

Sensing the terrifying momentum of the flying sword light, Sun Zhou's face changed drastically and he quickly summoned a flying sword.

However, his flying sword was of the Wu Gou style, blue in color, emitting a sharp aura, and of extraordinary quality.

The blue sword light rushed forward, intending to resist the silver sword light, but with a "crack", the blue sword light was shattered by the silver sword light.

Sun Zhou's face turned pale and a mouthful of blood gushed out.

Although this flying sword is not his natal flying sword, he has been refining it for a long time and it is connected with his heart and blood. Now that it is destroyed, he is naturally implicated.

"Damn it!"

Seeing that the silver sword light was still flying towards him, and feeling the chilling murderous intent and sharp aura, Sun Zhou felt a chill all over his body, the hairs on his back stood on end, and he was filled with hatred!
He had not expected that Gu Yuan actually had such skills, and his swordsmanship was the most ferocious he had ever seen in his life.

Even his precious flying sword was shattered by his sword.

Sun Zhou gritted his teeth and took out a gray bird egg as big as a head.

Then he smashed towards the sword light.

At the same time, the other hand crushed a jade talisman.

The jade talisman shattered with a snap and turned into a ball of white light that enveloped him, and then carried him away at a speed ten times faster than his previous escape method.

But in the blink of an eye, the whole person disappeared into the distance.

The bird egg thrown out by Sun Zhou was chopped into pieces by the sword light transformed from Gu Yuan's Silver Dragon Sword.

Quack-quack-quack-quack

Seeing this, the two ghost-faced owls that flew over screamed in a shrill voice, and their eyes were full of anger and resentment when they looked at Gu Yuan.

"Bird egg?"

Gu Yuan frowned and looked up at the Ghost-Faced Owl flying towards him like a madman in the distance.

I instantly understood Sun Zhou's plan.
