Eternal Beast Taming Family

Source Beast: Bright Medicine Spirit Butterfly (Spirit Rank)

Rank: Middle of different ranks

Qualification: Extraordinary

Status: Survived, but suffered excessive energy loss.

Attribute Tendency: Medicine, Light

Skills: 1. Light Healing: The long body of the Light Medicine Spirit Butterfly passively emits a faint light. This faint light has a good repairing effect on external injuries. When the skill is actively activated, a beam of light is condensed to illuminate the injury, which has a healing effect on spiritual wounds and can also purify toxins and dispel curses.

2. Bright Light Spirit Stone: Consumes one's own energy to condense a physical Bright Light Spirit Stone. This Bright Light Stone can be crushed into powder and taken to heal the target's internal injuries or dispel some negative effects (curses, poisons, weakness, dizziness) around the target.

3. Light Spirit Powder: Vibrating wings causes light spirit powder to fall, which can improve eyesight and treat diseases such as blindness and neurasthenia.

4. Wings of Light: The Light Spirit Butterfly condenses enormous wings of light, selects a target to apply a mark, and the power of light covers the entire area. The target with the mark can continuously restore its physical condition.

5. Seed of Glimmer: A seed formed by compressing pure light elemental energy to its extreme, which can be controlled by the Light Potion Butterfly and detonated at any time.

After recalling the information about the "Light Medicine Spirit Butterfly" in his mind, he still felt that this source beast was standing weakly, and it was probably able to survive the snake tide only by finding some "allies" to help each other.

Yang Qingxue looked at the "Light Medicine Spirit Butterfly" with a more inquisitive gaze, her eyes shining with an unusual brilliance, as if she were using some kind of skill to analyze and understand the information of the "Light Medicine Spirit Butterfly".

"What is the connection between this and the Light Healing Butterfly?" Yang Qingxue murmured to herself. "As one of the more universally applicable source beasts, the evolution of this source beast is of great value."

"If the teacher is interested, why don't you take it back and study it?"

This time, Chu Shengfan seemed incredibly sensible.

Yang Qingxue extended a finger, and the "Bright Medicine Spirit Butterfly" seemed to be attracted by some kind of fatal temptation, fluttering its wings and landing gracefully on her fingertip.

"Xiao Fan, do you know why, although the source beasts you sell in Thousand Spirit City are relatively rare, they haven't really caused a market frenzy?"

Chu Shengfan pondered for a moment, taking it as a test from his teacher.

"Is it because the source beasts I sell are of relatively low grade and expensive?"

"That's part of the reason, but not the main one."

Yang Qingxue took out some materials with the attribute of light and fed them to the "Light Spirit Butterfly," watching as the faint light on its body gradually brightened.

"Most importantly, there is no complete evolutionary path."

Chu Shengfan's eyes showed a hint of doubt, "No complete evolutionary path?"

"Regarding the Phosphorescent Butterfly, the known evolutionary path is from Phosphorescent Butterfly to Healing Butterfly. Although the Flower Medicine Butterfly you sell in Thousand Spirit City is a new evolutionary form of the Phosphorescent Butterfly."

This sparked a research craze for phosphorescent butterflies, but the contract masters of Thousand Spirit City mostly just watched the spectacle. Few chose to buy contracts with them, and most of those they did buy were for research purposes.

This is because there is no complete evolutionary path. If your shop offered evolution services for the Flower Butterfly or the Light Healing Butterfly, your current business would become incredibly booming.

"Please explain in detail, teacher," Chu Shengfan said, his face showing a thirst for knowledge.

"Since ancient times, the source beasts contracted by scions of noble families have always come from those raised within their own clans. Do you know why?"

"Why?" Chu Shengfan asked cooperatively.

"Because a stable evolutionary path is extremely important for a family, it is crucial to avoid being hindered by others. If a family member contracts with an external beast, they will have to ask others for help for every step of their advancement. If you were the head of the family, would you be willing to do that?"

Chu Shengfan seemed to understand something. "Of course I'm unwilling."

"Therefore, no matter how precious a source beast is, if it cannot advance to a certain realm without relying on others, the aristocratic families will never allow their own children to form a contract with it."

However, if there is a complete evolutionary path, it is different. The trade of source beasts between aristocratic families is often based on a complete evolutionary path of the source beast.

It can be said that a good and complete evolutionary path for a source beast can determine the rise and fall of a family over a thousand years.

Yang Qingxue gently touched the "Bright Medicine Spirit Butterfly," and its wings folded, turning into a wisp of light that disappeared from her fingertip.

"I imagine most of the people who frequent your shop are either independent cultivators or servants of powerful families, right?"

In fact, Chu Shengfan didn't manage the shop's affairs much. He left most of the business to the two stewards that Grandpa Sun had left him, and only went there occasionally.

After the teacher's reminder, Chu Shengfan thought about it carefully and realized that it really was the case on the few times he had gone there, so he nodded.

"These low-level contract masters cannot think long-term. Advancing to a higher realm is a luxury for them. Naturally, they want to contract with source beasts that are more precious at the same realm and can bring out their value as soon as possible."

As for the path to advancement being cut off, that's not something they need to consider when they're at a lower level.

Yang Qingxue gently raised her hand, and a boulder flew up, revealing three or four source beasts hiding beneath it; three of them were white cranes.

One of them was quite unique, with black feathers all over its body and bone spurs growing at the bends of its wings. It lacked the ethereal grace of a white crane, but instead exuded a sense of menace and ferocity.

"Deep-winged Black-feathered Crane" (Spirit Rank).

Chu Shengfan recognized it; it was a source beast he had chosen long ago. It was one of the few mutated species among the "White Feather Cranes," a type that was well-suited for combat.

Chu Shengfan's gaze fell on the teacher's face, and sure enough, he noticed the strange light flashing in the teacher's eyes. His lips twitched helplessly. Well, this one is gone too.

It wasn't that he was reluctant to part with them, but rather that he had already selected many source beasts, initially believing they had been swallowed by the snake tide.

Now that I've discovered they're alive, the feeling of having found them again has just begun to wash over me, and then I find out they need a new home, creating an indescribable sense of loss.

Yang Qingxue took out some spiritual food that crane-type source beasts preferred, and then distributed it to several "white-feathered cranes" in turn.

When it came to the "Sinking Winged Black Feather Crane", Chu Shengfan clearly noticed that she switched to feeding it a different, more precious type of spiritual food, and the difference in treatment was quite obvious.

"If you offer the next evolution service for Flower Butterfly and Light Healing Butterfly in your shop, your business will be booming like never before, as the number of contract masters who own Light Healing Butterfly is quite large."

"Who knows, other powerful families might even come to you to discuss purchasing the Light Healing Butterfly's evolutionary path."

The "Light Healing Butterfly" evolves into the "Light Medicine Spirit Butterfly," a true Spirit-rank species. While Spirit-rank Contract Masters are relatively common in Thousand Spirit City,

However, no family would complain about having more Spirit-Rank Contract Masters, and the "Light Medicine Spirit Butterfly" itself has skills that are superior to most medicine beasts.

Even the most numerous noble families in Qianlingfu City are only eighth-rank families with the highest Spirit Rank. This evolutionary path would make even seventh-rank celebrities interested.

Chu Shengfan suddenly had a realization: perhaps selling 'knowledge' in Qianling City would be far more profitable than directly selling the source beasts themselves.

Seeing the realization on Chu Shengfan's face, Yang Qingxue smiled and put away the "Sinking Wing Black Feather Crane".

"So, do you understand?"

Chu Shengfan's eyes were clear. "Disciple understands. It seems I need to revise the focus of the business going forward."
