Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 149 is all thanks to my perseverance and hard work.

After leaving Gongsun Yang's place, Yu Changsheng went straight to the Spirit Chicken Garden to feed the chickens as usual.

After two expansions, the Spirit Chicken Garden can now yield 3,000 points of essence from feeding chickens every day.

With a thought, the data panel was brought up.

Name: Yu Changsheng

[Realm: Nine Heavens of Qi Refining]

[Physique: Affinity with Spirit Beasts]

【功法：长春功熟练（5/10000）炼神功小成（3500/5000000）御兽决精通（1022/100000）三文火炼丹术精通（10000/100000）】

[Skills: Tier 1 Spirit Plants (5/1000), Tier 2 Alchemy (5000/50000)]

[Spirit Pets: Crimson Serpent, Golden-Winged Eagle, Colorful Star Deer]

[Remaining Essence: 65210]

With the accumulation of these days, the essence has once again reached more than 60,000, and the alchemy skills have become even more refined.

but……

Looking at the enormous amount of essence required for the Three Fires Alchemy Technique, Yu Changsheng remained silent.

"Forget it, I'll practice on my own first. These essences will come in handy later."

Does not using cheat codes mean I, Yu Changsheng, am a useless person? It's all due to my own persistence and hard work, okay?

"We still have over 60,000 essence points and enough sect contribution points. Let's go choose a spell."

Having made up his mind, Yu Changsheng went to the Magic Pavilion.

"Overlord Blade Technique? Flaming Blade? Frost Palm?"

"Why are all these spells so trashy? There's really nothing good on the first floor."

Yu Changsheng muttered a couple of things, then listlessly walked past a bunch of spells and headed to the second floor.

"Raging waves across the heavens? Blades that blaze with heaven-burning flames? Phoenix dances across the nine heavens, the sky collapses and the earth sank—the Purple-Gold Hammer?"

"The names are nice, fancy, but unfortunately they're all just average."

Yu Changsheng's lips twitched. He picked up the magic jade tube and scroll, examined them for a moment, and then put them down again.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Changsheng decided to start looking around from the corners, where there might be more treasures to be found.

An ancient scroll of magical arts came into view, covered in dust for a long time.

"Beast Tamer Specialization?"

Yu Changsheng became interested and picked it up to examine it closely.

"Beast Shadow, a specialty of Beast Tamers, involves condensing the phantom of a beast through a Beast Tamer's contract. It is a powerful means of attack and requires a Beast Tamer's contract as a medium. Only Beast Tamers can cultivate it."

Yu Changsheng's eyes lit up. According to the introduction of this technique, the power of the beast shadow not only depends on the strength of the cultivator, but also has an intricate connection with the beast tamer's spirit pet. The stronger the beast tamer's spirit pet, the greater the strength of the beast shadow.

For Yu Changsheng, his spirit beasts were all top-tier in Qi refining, and their numbers reached a rare three. Learning this technique was a unique privilege, allowing him to fully utilize his advantages.

Yu Changsheng pondered for a moment, then glanced at the required sect contribution points. It was just the right amount for him to exchange for it, so this technique was indeed quite remarkable.

Picking up the magic jade tube and scroll, he walked towards the gate. The elder of the Magic Pavilion glanced at him, then looked up at Yu Changsheng, his eyes filled with a strange light, and said:

"Beast Shadow? This technique is quite expensive. You're a beast tamer, right? This technique requires high skill in beast taming and is not easy to comprehend. Quite a few people exchanged for it before but couldn't master it."

"I suggest you switch to another spell if you're not absolutely sure. The contribution points you're spending could be enough to get some better spells."

The elder of the Magic Pavilion offered a kind reminder.

"It's alright, let's change to this one, I want to try it." Yu Changsheng smiled slightly.

Is the Beast Shadow difficult? Maybe, but unfortunately I'm using cheat codes.

"Alright, I'm telling you, once you decide to redeem, you can't change your mind even if you're not satisfied."

Seeing that Yu Changsheng persisted, the elder of the Magic Pavilion did not try to persuade him further. He simply deducted Yu Changsheng's contribution points and then left him alone.

He was just offering a friendly reminder, after all, so many contributions were hard-won, and whether or not Yu Changsheng listened was up to him.

Taking his identity jade tube, Yu Changsheng felt a pang of heartache as he looked at the few contribution points left on it.

"I hope this beastly figure won't disappoint me."

Back at the Spirit Chicken Garden, Yu Changsheng relaxed his spiritual senses and slowly read the jade scroll of beast shadows. After an incense stick's time, he had a general understanding of it.

"Using the Beast Taming Contract as a medium, the Beast Tamer can use their own power to draw upon a portion of the spirit pet's power, allowing them to condense additional Beast Taming Shadows outside their body without summoning the beast."

"The Beast Taming Shadow can not only unleash a portion of the beast's power based on the Beast Tamer's own strength, becoming additional combat power, but at a high level, it can even allow the beast shadow to merge with the Beast Tamer, enhancing the Beast Tamer. At its most powerful, it can achieve instantaneous switching between reality and illusion, protecting the beast from danger and even taking its place!"

"However, the technique of switching between reality and illusion is too difficult. At least I can't do it yet. I can do it after I reach the Foundation Establishment stage, or when I have mastered or achieved minor success in cultivating this beast shadow technique."

"Anyway, this spell suits me perfectly!"

Yu Changsheng slowly finished reading the scroll, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.

"It's just a pity that the supernatural powers involved later are not in what I exchanged for; the beast shadow I have is only the first part."

"I don't know if the other one is in the Spells Pavilion. If it's not, then we're in trouble."

Yu Changsheng felt a little regretful, but it wasn't a big deal.

"But the first part is enough. We'll need to think of another way after that. This kind of technique only contributes this little bit, so we've gotten a bargain."

"Is it because it's too difficult to master?" Yu Changsheng wondered.

Soon, Yu Changsheng avoided learning the Beast Shadow technique. Just as he was getting a feel for it, the system's information popped up.

[You have mastered a new spell – Beast Shadow (Part 1). Do you need to allocate skill points to improve it?]

【Beast Shadow: Beginner (1/5000)】

Dark Blue, add some points!

Yu Changsheng didn't hesitate. It was all thanks to his persistence, hard work, and a tiny bit of insignificant talent.

[Consuming 5000 essences, the spell "Beast Shadow" has reached proficiency!]

A stream of insights into the beast shadows appeared out of nowhere in Yu Changsheng's mind, as if he had practiced them a thousand times, deeply imprinted on his sea of ​​consciousness.

In an instant, Yu Changsheng gained a clearer understanding of the casting, application, and circulation of spiritual energy of the Beast Shadow Divine Ability, and profound mysteries naturally arose around him.

After fully digesting this information, Yu Changsheng didn't stop and continued to add points.

[Consuming 50000 essences, the spell "Beast Shadow" has reached mastery!]

【Beast Shadow (Part 1): Mastery (1/100000)】

A massive amount of information flooded into Yu Changsheng's mind. Even with the strength of his spiritual sense, he felt a surge in his brain, and it took him a while to process it before he felt better.

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, the spirit beast contract warmed slightly, and streams of profound meaning flowed through it. Three illusory figures automatically appeared in front of Yu Changsheng.
