Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 27 Choosing the Second Spirit Pet (Please Read On)

"Deeper cooperation?"

Yu Changsheng looked up, somewhat surprised.

"That's right. Our First-Class Pharmacy doesn't have many rules or restrictions on guest alchemists. If you agree, the price of materials you purchase in the future can be reduced."

"Only when visiting cultivators commission us to refine rare or special pills will we trouble you, fellow Daoist. We will also provide compensation based on the difficulty of the pills, and you will also obtain the pill formulas from the visiting cultivators in return, killing two birds with one stone."

"In addition, even if there is no business, we will give our guest alchemists fifty low-grade spirit stones every month as a token of our gratitude."

You can't blame Xi Wenyou for being so enthusiastic, because there are very few alchemists in Fish Market who can refine pill patterns, and even those who can are mostly from sects, not people he can win over.

However, Yipin Pharmacy has reached a bottleneck in its development over the years. If it wants to continue to expand its business in elixirs, it must recruit guest alchemists.

Xi Wenyou has worked hard for several years, but he has only managed to recruit three guest alchemists, whose skill level is probably not as good as that of the fellow Daoist in front of him.

Yu Changsheng frowned slightly, pondering the pros and cons of the matter.

He didn't want to be associated with too many forces, because that would increase the chances of his identity being exposed.

If a Foundation Establishment expert were to appear, his divine sense wouldn't be able to withstand it before he had even achieved minor success in refining his divine skills.

But Xi Wenyu's proposal was also very tempting, especially since he was in dire need of resources.

"Fellow Daoist, please rest assured. Our First-Class Pharmacy is very lenient towards guest alchemists. Whether or not you accept business is entirely up to you. We will not force you, nor will we inquire about your identity."

Xi Wenyou glanced at the mask on Yu Changsheng's face and smiled, "If you encounter any danger or need help while you are out there, our First-Class Pharmacy will do its best to help you."

"My Xi family has some influence in Haoyue City, and we also have a Foundation Establishment ancestor in our clan."

What I'm afraid of is that Foundation Establishment ancestor from your clan coming over!

Yu Changsheng thought to himself, "I'm complaining to myself."

However, cooperating with Xi Wenyou is indeed a good path, and once he becomes an outer disciple or inner disciple, the Xi family, a Foundation Establishment family with top-notch pills, may be able to provide assistance.

"Okay, I agree," Yu Changsheng said calmly.

Xi Wenyou's expression brightened, and he took out a jade token for a guest advisor, saying with a smile, "May I ask how you are addressed, friend?"

"Luo Lesheng".

After leaving Yipin Pharmacy with the guest jade token, Yu Changsheng pondered the potential danger of this matter.

"The only thing to worry about is that a Foundation Establishment expert can see through my hypocrisy, then connect me with Yu Changsheng, and dig out all my experiences, big and small, as well as the transformation of the Spirit Chicken King."

"However, Foundation Establishment experts usually don't leave their own residences, and there are only a handful in the entire Fish Market, so the probability of encountering one is very low."

"But even a low risk is still a risk!"

Yu Changsheng narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself.

"After returning, I'll first store the essence to enhance my Divine Refinement Technique. Once I achieve minor success, my divine sense range will exceed a thousand meters. Even if I'm not at the Foundation Establishment stage, I can still resemble one. It won't be easy for them to see through my disguise then!"

After thinking it over, Yu Changsheng made his way to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower.

"Master Luo, is there a new Spirit Chicken King?"

He was greeted by the same female cultivator in the blue dress. The two had been cooperating for over a month, and Yu Changsheng had sold four spirit chicken kings.

While the frequency is a bit high, it's still acceptable, considering his reason was that it's family-run.

Furthermore, his disguise as a peak Qi Refining cultivator, using a false name, was flawless.

"This time, I want to buy a suitable spirit pet for the younger generation."

Upon hearing that business had come to them, the female cultivator in the blue dress quickly and happily asked, "We have many kinds of spirit pets here. Do you prefer birds or beasts?"

Yu Changsheng thought for a moment. Since he already had the Crimson Serpent King as a fighting force, it would be best to contract a spirit pet that could serve as a mount and carry him in flight.

So he said, "Birds."

"Ideally, it should be a mid-to-late stage Tier 1 demon beast."

The female cultivator in the blue dress understood, gestured with one hand, and said.

"Immortal Luo, this way please. These are the demonic beasts carefully raised by our Beast Raising Pavilion. Although they are not cubs, they are all no more than ten years old and have potential for future development."

"This Windbird is at the late stage of Tier 1. It is skilled in wind magic, is 1.5 meters long, and has considerable combat power. It can be used as a battle pet or as a mount, and its flight speed can reach a thousand miles a day."

It can travel a thousand miles a day, making it one of the best among demonic beasts, comparable to the sword flight of a Qi-refining sword cultivator.

But Yu Changsheng glanced at the price, his lips twitched, and he immediately gave up.

Seven hundred and twenty low-grade spirit stones—even if he sold himself, he couldn't raise that much.

The female cultivator in the blue dress clearly noticed his lack of money, smiled slightly, and introduced him to the several demonic beasts beside her.

"This is just a Golden Flame Bird, mid-stage first tier, specializing in fire magic."

"This is just..."

After walking around once, Yu Changsheng had lost his smile.

The ones I like are too expensive to buy, and the ones I can afford aren't to my liking.

This trip was probably a waste of time.

Just as he was about to speak to make the enthusiastic female cultivator in the blue dress stop, a series of "thump thump thump" sounds came from ahead.

A brown iron-feathered eagle came into view.

"This is?"

Yu Changsheng looked over curiously.

Inside the five-meter-high iron cage, a red-eyed iron-feathered eagle relentlessly attacked the cage, ramming its head against it repeatedly with ferocity.

He glanced at the sign hanging outside, which read:

Iron Feathered Eagle, Tier 1, Level 4, Metal and Wind element, currently five years old, has been raised for three years, has a gentle temperament, never loses its temper, has become intelligent and listens to its beast tamer, making it a rare and excellent spirit pet.

Hmm? Is this gentle personality for real?

Yu Changsheng opened his mouth, and saw the Iron Feathered Eagle let out a cry, flap its wings, and once again ram its head against the iron cage, making a thumping sound.

Those eyes seemed to be filled with anxiety and anger.

Despite being hit so many times, the iron cage didn't deform in the slightest. It's hard to say whether the cage was sturdy enough or the iron-feathered eagle's head wasn't hard enough.

"Are you trying to pass off the wild monsters you just captured as the real thing?" Yu Changsheng couldn't help but laugh.

The female cultivator in the blue dress said awkwardly, "That's not the case. We have indeed raised this Iron Feathered Eagle for three years and it has been tamed. It is a spirit pet that can be contracted immediately."

"It just suffered an accident at birth, and its bloodline concentration is not high. It cost us a lot of resources to cultivate, and it has only reached the fourth level of the first rank so far. Moreover, the black iron hair on its head has not yet grown in full, so it cannot comprehend the innate spell Black Wind Slash. That's why it keeps hitting the iron cage day and night, hoping to understand it through this effort."

"So, it's actually quite diligent?" Yu Changsheng asked, somewhat surprised.

"That's natural. It's one of the most diligent beasts in our Beast Breeding Pavilion. It's just a pity that its bloodline is flawed, which makes its advancement slow. That's why it's being sold here at this price."

"Otherwise, Immortal Master, do you think we would price a monster like the Iron Feathered Eagle, which can reach the second tier, so cheaply?" the blue-skirted female cultivator said with a smirk.

Upon hearing this, Yu Changsheng noticed the price below the sign and was greatly surprised.

Eighty-eight low-grade spirit stones!

This is an insult to monsters like the Iron Feathered Eagle!
