Destiny Beast Taming

Chapter 137 The Evolved Night-Slicing Spider! (A new month, please vote with your monthly tickets!)

Zhong Yi had long anticipated that the rule-based monster would not be cheap, even at the Monster Path Conference.

Approximately 1,500 Drunken Dragon Jade can be exchanged for one Rule-Based Beast Embryo. The price that Zhongyi paid when trading Drunken Dragon Jade for Beast Taming at the Senhe Hall is roughly equivalent to six billion Federal Credits.

Six billion federal dollars is an astronomical figure.

A Chosen One with an S-level potential rating can receive Chosen One Potential Points annually, which, when converted into Alliance Coins, ranges from 150 million to 200 million.

Six billion Federal Credits is roughly equivalent to the total purchasing power of an S-level Chosen One's potential points over thirty years.

It's even more expensive than buying the Heart of the Realm within the Destiny Academy.

To find a Five-Finger Creator to concoct potions, without providing the raw materials, six billion Federal Credits should be enough to exchange for at least a thousand bottles of Level 5 potions.

However, Zhong Yi considered it a very worthwhile investment to exchange six billion Federal Credits for a Rule-based Strange Fetus.

Zhong Yi currently only has four Dragon Brew Immortal Sables, and he wants to produce 1,500 Drunken Dragon Jade from these four.

It will take at least several months.

Zhong Yi asked Wen Tao to help him find the dragon crystal of the Fairy Scaled Dragon.

Wen Tao said that finding six or seven Fairy Scale Flood Dragon crystals would not be a problem, which would allow Zhong Yi to have at least ten Dragon Brew Immortal Sables.

Ten Dragon Brew Immortal Sables worked at full capacity to produce Drunken Dragon Jade. Without using these Drunken Dragon Jade, a Rule-based Strange Embryo could be obtained in less than two months.

Moreover, compared to the Drunken Dragon Jade, which can only enhance the bloodline of dragon-type creatures, the general-purpose material Blood Jade Insect Honey is more expensive.

Zhongyi kept asking him about the rules of trading the strange fetus at the Strange Path Conference.

Qin Ruyue spoke up.

"Young Master, if you want to trade through me at the Demonic Path Conference, I should be able to obtain some Rule Demonic Embryos that clearly define the rules and authority."

"However, these rule-based entities with clearly defined rules and authority will be more expensive."

Zhong Yi shook her head slightly upon hearing this, saying that every rule and authority has its unique use.

Rules like equivalent replication offer very limited help to other supernatural entities in combat.

However, in Hong Ji's case, she had the opportunity to replicate precious materials by virtue of the authority to replicate this specification at an equivalent cost.

Rule-based monsters related to combat rules will definitely be more expensive than functional rule-based monsters.

A monster can only absorb one rule authority.

In a perilous environment, combat-oriented rules are better suited for self-preservation or for plundering the resources of others.

However, for Hong Ji, this is because Hong Ji can devour multiple rule-based monster fetuses.

Functional rule-based monsters are more useful than combat-oriented rule-based monsters!

"When will the next gathering of the unorthodox sects be held?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ruyue quickly told the truth.

"The next conference of the Demonic Path will be held in three months."

"The location is not in the New Xia Federation. I need to travel there a month in advance."

The Demonic Path Conference will be held in three months.

In these three months, it wouldn't be too difficult for Zhong Yi to gather the resources needed to exchange for a Rule-based Strange Embryo.

After all, it's only been a little over ten days since Zhongyi came to this world to develop.

Zhong Yi already possesses the Blood Demon Queen Bee and the Dragon Brew Immortal Sable, two resource-gathering, production-type beasts.

In terms of resource production, the Gardener Earthworm is inferior to the Blood Demon Queen Bee and the Dragon Brew Immortal Sable.

The soil and digestive fluids that the gardener's earthworms transformed are now mostly used by Zhongyi himself.

But the gardener earthworm allows Zhongyi to cooperate with those forces whose main function is to cultivate plant-based beasts.

The iron-eating insects that Zhao Kai cultivated using the secret formula given by Zhong Yi were only a pittance to Zhong Yi at the moment.

Fortunately, there is a huge market demand for iron-eating insects.

Many factions are willing to buy iron-eating worms in an attempt to cultivate silver-eating worms.

Silver-eating worms, which devour the refined mithril secreted by silver ore, are the core material for crafting creator tools.

For low-level creators to prepare potions, ordinary mithril is sufficient.

For advanced crafters who want to increase the success rate of potion concoction, using tools made of refined mithril is undoubtedly the best choice.

When concocting a potion whose raw materials alone cost hundreds of thousands, the creator will choose to use tools made of refined mithril.

With the secret recipe provided by Zhongyi, over 90% of the iron-eating insect eggs can hatch successfully.

Zhong Yi let Zhao Kai select the best iron-eating insects and cultivate these high-quality iron-eating insects with strong reproductive capabilities into silver-eating insects.

All the iron-eating insects that were rejected were sold off.

The proceeds from the sale of iron-eating insects will be used as special funds for Zhao Kai to train his apprentices.

Zhong Yi could clearly sense the yearning for freedom in Qin Ruyue's eyes.

Rather than having someone follow her around like a bodyguard and be at her beck and call, Qin Ruyue would rather return to the Diyue Sect.

In this respect, Qin Ruyue's expectations and Zhong Yi's arrangements for Qin Ruyue overlapped.

After understanding Qin Ruyue's expectations, Zhong Yi got straight to the point.

"I control your life and death, but what I will do from now on is not only to enslave you, but also to lift you up."

"You failed to snatch the Rule-based Demon Embryo from Shi Mi, but I will provide you with funds to exchange for materials at the Demonic Path Conference."

"Once you reach the Immortal realm, if you are not confident in resisting the trials of heaven and earth, I can also find an Immortal-level chosen one to protect you."

At this point, Zhongyi suddenly changed the subject.

"I have a special material here. I wonder if it will be effective against your monster."

After saying that, Zhongyi took out a crystal test tube.

This crystal test tube contains ten milliliters of Soul-Breaking Soil, which is jet black and can absorb light.

Previously, Zhongyi had only used Soul-Breaking Soil to enhance her Beast Taming skills, and had not yet tested its effects on the supernatural.

Logically speaking, the Soul-Controlling Soil, a special substance secreted by the roots of the Soul-Controlling Flower, absorbs life and soul energy.

The enhancement effect on the bizarre should be greater than that on ordinary beast taming.

Zhong Yi uncorked the crystal test tube, and the aura of the Soul-Flowing Soil leaked out.

Almost instantly, Qin Ruyue felt the Night-Cutting Spider within her soul base tremble uncontrollably due to its desire.

If it weren't for the fact that the Night-Cutting Spider was her own monster, Qin Ruyue felt that she wouldn't be able to suppress the Night-Cutting Spider's desire.

"Young Master, what kind of material is this?"

The Night-Cutting Spider had never before felt such a longing for anything.

Zhong Yi knew from the change in Qin Ruyue's tone that the Soul-Flowing Soil was attractive to the supernatural.

Zhong Yi consumed too much Soul-Breaking Soil to fuse with the Heart of the Secret Realm. He would need to use Soul-Breaking Soil to cultivate the Dragon Brew Immortal Sable in a while. Even if Soul-Breaking Soil was effective against the supernatural, Zhong Yi couldn't possibly give too much Soul-Breaking Soil to Qin Ruyue's Night-Cutting Spider.

Zhong Yi took out these ten milliliters of Soul-Breaking Soil to test its effects on the supernatural.

"You don't need to know what this material is."

"Summon your monster and let it devour this material."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ruyue immediately activated her Soul Foundation, releasing the Night-Slicing Spider, whose body was still trembling with eager desire.

Qin Ruyue had no idea what this jet-black liquid material was.

Judging from the Night-Cutting Spider's behavior, this material must be helpful to it.

Qin Ruyue is very cautious and never easily trusts anyone.

It's impossible for the Night-Cutting Spider to easily devour something whose specific effects are unclear.

Even though the Night-Cutting Spider desperately craves this kind of material!

However, Qin Ruyue currently has great faith in Zhongyi.

Her life was in Zhong Yi's hands; she had become Zhong Yi's appendage.

With her own value evident, Zhongyi has absolutely no reason to harm herself.

Even if Zhong Yi really wanted to harm him, this kind of material was harmful to the Night-Cutting Spider, and he had no ability to resist.

Bai Mu Yue Yao controlled Qin Ru Yue by controlling the energy core of the Night-Cutting Spider.

The Night-Cutting Spider treated Zhong Yi with even greater respect than Qin Ruyue.

The Night-Slicing Spider, in its mimicry state, cautiously approached and took the crystal test tube from Zhong Yi's hand using its two pincers.

He raised the test tube high and drank the Soul-Breaking Soil in the bottle in one gulp.

Almost instantly, night mist erupted from the Night-Cutting Spider's body.

The thick night fog almost completely enveloped Zhongyi's room, and the shadows of night spiders crawled everywhere in the fog.

After a long while, the night fog dissipated, and Zhongyi looked at the Night-Cutting Spider, only to find that the Night-Cutting Spider had not changed much.

However, Qin Ruyue, a calm person, was so surprised and somewhat out of control by the changes in the Night-Cutting Spider that she became somewhat overjoyed.

The Night-Cutting Spider, a mother-type spider, possesses its greatest strength in creating swarms of spiders.

Those few drops of dark liquid, whose name was unknown, were absorbed into the Night-Cutting Spider's body.

They even specially modified the reproductive cavity of the Night-Cutting Spider!

Although it may be because the Night-Cutting Spider ingests too little of this material, resulting in insufficient specialization of its reproductive cavity.

However, the Night-Cutting Spider's ability to produce spider eggs and hatch offspring has definitely increased compared to before it consumed such materials.

From the moment of their birth, the genetic template of the monster is fixed.

Unlike the beast tamer's natal beast, which can continuously evolve its bloodline.

In this respect, the Beast of Destiny is somewhat similar to the Order Beast of the Chosen One.

The Order Beasts of the Chosen Ones also cannot enhance their bloodlines.

However, the specialization of the Night-Cutting Spider's reproductive cavity by this black liquid seems to have broken the curse that prevented the spider from evolving.

The Night-Cutting Spider's reproductive cavity changes when it uses this material, enhancing its reproductive capabilities.

This is an evolution in itself!

Seeing Qin Ruyue's reaction, Zhong Yi was certain that the Night-Cutting Spider had undergone an extraordinary change due to absorbing the Soul-Flowing Soil.

Zhong Yi didn't ask Qin Ruyue any questions, but instead used his All-Knowing Detection to investigate the Night-Cutting Spider.

Upon further inquiry, Zhong Yi learned why Qin Ruyue was so agitated.

At the same time, he was also surprised by the strange effects of the Soul-Flowing Soil.

Ten milliliters of Soul-Breaking Soil altered the reproductive cavity of the Night-Cutting Spider, enhancing its reproductive capacity. This effect was undoubtedly stronger than when Soul-Breaking Soil was used on Beast Tamers.

However, from a macro perspective, the two are quite similar.

Zhong Yi used the Soul-Flowing Soil to evolve the Dragon Language Sable into the Dragon Brew Immortal Sable. Essentially, he induced a bloodline transformation in the Dragon Language Sable species through the Soul-Flowing Soil.

They broke the bloodline barrier and evolved into a completely new kind of being.

The Night-Cutting Spider, having consumed the Soul-Flowing Soil, is clearly undergoing an evolution similar to that of the Dragon-Speaking Sable.

This discovery made Zhong Yi even more certain of the value of the Soul-Breaking Soil.

I'm also somewhat glad that I didn't choose to use Fengwu Coconut's coconut oil and the secret solution made from the pollen of Jumi Clove.

They sell the Soul-Breaking Soil by infusing it into this secret solution.

Just as Zhong Yi was reassessing the value of the Soul-Flowing Soil in his mind, Qin Ruyue asked him in a somewhat unrestrained voice.

"Young master, could you please provide me with some more of this material?"

"I....."

Qin Ruyue was interrupted by Zhong Yi before she could finish speaking.

Have you ever heard the saying, "One should not accept a reward without merit"?

Zhong Yi's words immediately made Qin Ruyue's face turn red with embarrassment.

The secret passage revealed that he had become overly happy due to the increased reproductive ability of the Night-Cutting Spider.

They actually asked Zhong Yi for this precious material without any sense of propriety.

I have only just joined Zhongyi Demon's ranks, and the way I joined Zhongyi Demon's ranks is not by actively pledging allegiance.

Instead, they are passively controlled by Zhongyi.

In this situation, it would be inappropriate for Guan Zhong to take the initiative to ask for valuable materials.

Qin Ruyue was afraid that Zhong Yi would think she was a greedy person because of this incident, and that she would develop other thoughts about her.

Just as Qin Ruyue was about to explain, Zhong Yi continued, "You will stay in Star City for the next month or two. I will give you some resources before you leave."

"You can use these resources to help me exchange for one or two Rule-based Ghost Embryos, and use the rest to buy the materials needed for the Night-Cutting Ghost Spider to advance to Immortality."

"The Night-Cutting Spider just drank 10 milliliters of the material. After you bring me back the Rule-Binding Embryo you traded for, I will give you another 100 milliliters of the material that the Night-Cutting Spider just drank."

Qin Ruyue's mood was like a rollercoaster ride.

If you help Zhongyi trade for the Rule Fetus at the Ghostly Path Conference, you will receive a reward of 100 milliliters.

Ten milliliters of this material is enough to specialize the reproductive cavity of the Night-Cutting Spider.

If one hundred milliliters is consumed, the reproductive cavity of the Night-Cutting Spider may be reshaped under the influence of this material, and it may even cause certain changes in the Night-Cutting Spider's bloodline.

In addition to the 100 ml of this material, Zhong Yi is also willing to provide funds to help the Night-Cutting Spider ascend to the Immortal Rank.

Qin Ruyue now knows how Zhong Yi will support her.

Compared to Zhongyi's support, what Suolang did seemed rather insignificant.

After a moment's hesitation, Qin Ruyue took out a piece of bright red, blood vessel-like substance from the patrol base and handed it to Zhong Yi.

"Young master, this is a creature I obtained on an ancient battlefield."

"I think this kind of creature is a good match for your humanoid beast that can absorb the strange embryo of rules."
