Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

"True Blood of the Flame Emperor Spirit Dragon..."

Yu Changsheng stared intently, sensing the aura of the drop of blood for a long while. He swallowed hard, licked his lips, and after a long pause, finally looked away. With a wave of his hand, the Crimson Hell Dragon emerged from his inner vision.

"Ang ang ang!!"

The Crimson Hell Dragon flew low, circling Yu Changsheng and roaring affectionately. Its dragon eyes were fixed on the True Blood of the Flame Emperor Spirit Beast, filled with undisguised longing.

"First came the Spirit Dragon's True Bone, and now we have the Spirit Dragon's True Blood. It's finally a complete system. Only now can we say we've been reborn."

Yu Changsheng chuckled softly, rubbed the head of the Crimson Hell Dragon, and after pondering for a moment, poured out the True Blood of the Flame Emperor Spirit Dragon from the jade bottle and brought it to the Crimson Hell Dragon's mouth.

"Waaaaah!!"

The Crimson Hell Dragon sniffed the blood and then swallowed it whole with a gulp.

[Consuming one drop of the Flame Emperor Spirit Dragon's true blood, successfully fed to the Crimson Purgatory Dragon, gaining 200000 Essence Points!]

"Buzzing!!!"

Suddenly, intense blue-yellow light flashed from the Crimson Hell Dragon's body, illuminating the void. Under the light, flames of evil danced on the Crimson Hell Dragon's body, and terrifying high temperatures brewed and ravaged the void, distorting nothingness.

Golden lines suddenly appeared on the originally dark red evil fire, as if they had turned into fuel, making the flames burn even more fiercely and the temperature rise to an astonishing level.

"Ang ang ang!"

The Crimson Hell Dragon roared, its face contorted in pain, and its body flickered and became transparent. Its bones shimmered with spiritual light, crystal clear like crystal, and around these bones, streams of blood rushed to the Crimson Hell Dragon's entire body.

Within the dark red blood, a hint of golden hue also appeared, as if it were about to boil, with golden flames surging and burning within it.

The entire Crimson Hell Dragon was undergoing a complete transformation! As a result, an even stronger dragon's might emanated from the Crimson Hell Dragon, and the sound of dragon roars echoed through the void.

[Successfully absorbed the true blood of the Flame Emperor Spirit Dragon, increasing the purity of the Crimson Purgatory Dragon bloodline and significantly boosting its potential! Physical strength greatly increased! Innate divine abilities were enhanced, and control over flames improved!]

The stirring dragon roar abruptly stopped, and countless rays of light flashed before finally converging into the Crimson Hell Dragon. Compared to before, the Crimson Hell Dragon, now refined again, felt even more "pure." Its dragon eyes were bright, and flames raged at will. Its slender body was adorned with sacred golden patterns that resembled flames, faintly etched upon it.

"It's a success."

Yu Changsheng smiled, raising an eyebrow as he sensed the increasingly pure aura emanating from the Crimson Hell Dragon.

With the integration of the Flame Emperor Spirit Dragon's true blood and true bones, the Crimson Purgatory Dragon has undergone a complete transformation. The serpent aspect of its bloodline has been thoroughly sublimated. Through repeated purifications, the Crimson Purgatory Dragon can now be considered a true dragon-type beast. Its current growth potential is far greater than before.

"Even without any other fortuitous encounters, if I continue cultivating normally, my Crimson Hellfire Dragon should reach the fifth rank, right?"

Yu Changsheng stroked the Crimson Hell Dragon's whiskers, a leisurely look flashing in his eyes, and chuckled.

Unlike the Spirit Dragon True Bone, this drop of Flame Emperor Spirit Dragon True Blood, while not much different in level from the Spirit Dragon, was far too little. Therefore, apart from enhancing the Crimson Hell Dragon's bloodline, it did not allow it to comprehend any additional innate divine abilities.

Even so, it was still a huge improvement for Yu Changsheng. The original Crimson Hell Dragon was already a king-level beast among spirit beasts of the same rank, but now it had reached an even higher level, comparable to an emperor-level beast.

Being able to grow into a fifth-tier beast tamer is something that countless beast tamers dream of. The fifth tier is equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage in human cultivation, and it is considered high-end combat power no matter where you are.

After playing with the Crimson Hell Dragon for a while, Yu Changsheng withdrew it into his inner world, took a deep breath, looked at the negative 90,000 military merit points on his identity token, gently tapped his forehead, and looked thoughtful.

"It seems I really need to find a way to acquire these military merit points. There are quite a few good items inside that I need..."

"Whether it's paying off debts or exchanging for the Dawn of the Extreme Sun, military merits are essential... I need to plan this trip to the Abyss of Fallen Cliffs carefully..."

A glint flashed in Yu Changsheng's eyes, and he pondered for a long time.

Military merit points are relatively easy to obtain, whether by completing daily tasks or by killing Qingzhou soldiers. However, military merit levels are much harder to acquire. Recently, the best way to obtain military merit levels is undoubtedly the journey to the Abyss of Fallen Cliffs.

"Even the most ordinary Golden Core prodigy is worth one third-class military merit and ten thousand military merit points... Ten third-class military merits can be exchanged for one second-class military merit, but second-class military merits cannot be exchanged for first-class military merits."

"So, if I want to obtain first-class military merit, there are basically only two ways. One is to obtain the Clifffall Token. There are seven Clifffall Tokens in total, and any one of them is worth one first-class military merit and 200000 military merit points... The other is the bounty list. There are quite a few people on it who are worth high-level military merit. These are my targets..."

Yu Changsheng licked his lips, a burning glint in his eyes, his heart fluttering with excitement.

"At the same time, my bounty will definitely attract the attention of the other side. In a way, it's not entirely a bad thing for me. At least, maybe I won't need to deliberately look for them; they will come to me on their own, saving me the trouble..."

Thinking this, Yu Changsheng felt a chill run down his spine. He did not underestimate the prodigy of Qingzhou; in fact, he valued him even more.

Unlike Wuzhou, which is governed by sects, Qingzhou is a centralized imperial unified state. This means that the other party is bound to be dominant and resources are more concentrated.

Under these circumstances, the gathering of geniuses cultivated by an imperial dynasty would theoretically be no less than that of Wuzhou. At least, Yu Changsheng had never heard of anyone else in Wuzhou besides himself who possessed the Heavenly Dao Golden Core, and the Crown Prince of the other party seemed to be a Heavenly Dao Golden Core as well. Although he did not know whether he also possessed the Heavenly Dao Qi, his peak Golden Core cultivation level made Yu Changsheng extremely wary.

If they were to actually face each other, Yu Changsheng was not confident that he could suppress the other party, and the other party's target would inevitably be him as well.

"The ancestor said that countless people are watching my journey to the Abyss, and it is indeed fraught with danger. However, danger and opportunity often coexist. Only by constantly strengthening my own power can I safely deal with these crises..."

Yu Changsheng remained silent, his fist clenched tightly. After shaking his head and thinking for a moment, he walked out of the tent and took a stroll around the nearby military camp.

There's nothing I can do about military merits for now. Being able to overdraw them is already setting a precedent, so naturally I can't ask the ancestor for anything more. My focus now is on preserving my peak condition.

As soon as he stepped out of the tent, he saw Li Minghan pacing back and forth near his tent with his hands behind his back, looking troubled. Yu Changsheng was taken aback and walked over to ask:

"What's wrong? What's the matter?"

"Chang Sheng?" Li Minghan pursed his lips, his hands stiffened, and he hesitated for a moment as he looked at Yu Changsheng. An unnatural expression appeared on his face, and he seemed a little awkward.

"Uh..."

Yu Changsheng felt dizzy and looked at Li Minghan in surprise. It was rare to see the other party with such an expression, so he smiled and waved his hand, saying:

"Tell me, what do you need my help with?"

"Hehe, as expected, you can't hide anything from me. There is indeed something that might require your help."

Li Minghan chuckled, scratched the back of his head, and without further hesitation, organized his thoughts before telling Yu Changsheng everything in detail.

Yu Changsheng listened quietly, his brows furrowing slightly, then slowly relaxing as he listened to the words, sorting out his thoughts and appearing thoughtful.

Li Minghan's words were very simple. He basically said that there seemed to be a spirit beast he needed in the depths of the abyss. However, this spirit beast was very powerful, and it would be difficult for him to form a contract with it on his own. Therefore, he wanted Yu Changsheng's help.

"A rare spirit beast from the depths of the abyss... the Venomous Wyvern...?"

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Yu Changsheng pondered for a moment, recalling information about the Myriad Poison Dragon, his eyes flashing.

The Poisonous Wyvern is considered a lower form of the Poisonous Spirit Dragon, and is an extremely dangerous but very powerful dragon species.

Its ferocity is renowned among its peers; its savage nature makes it difficult to form a contract with. Moreover, it has no dietary restrictions, even daring to prey on other dragon-like monsters of the same level.

Its most distinctive feature is its terrifying toxicity, which is among the best in its class. It is said that this race contains a trace of the bloodline of the ancestral beast Sky Lizard and the true dragon Eternal Sleep Poison Dragon, which is why it is so large. Those who are poisoned will often fall into an eternal sleep within a quarter of an hour to several hours without an antidote.

Because sightings of this kind of monster are extremely rare, or rather, very few people who see it manage to escape alive, there are few documents about this spirit beast. It was only in the documents of the Spirit Dragon Sect that Yu Changsheng saw the relevant descriptions and had some impression of it.

"I never imagined that such a rare and powerful spirit beast existed in this abyss?"

"Normally, we would never encounter such a spirit beast; the only chance is when the abyss opens."

Yu Changsheng's throat bobbed, and a strange look appeared on his face. He was somewhat surprised. Such a spirit beast was very valuable. Without a doubt, it was also a king-level beast. In terms of potential, it was not much different from his own Crimson Hell Dragon.

If he grows up normally, reaching the fifth rank shouldn't be a problem with a bit of luck. If he can form a contract, it would undoubtedly be a great opportunity for Li Minghan.

Since he already possessed five tamed beasts, continuing the contract wouldn't be a good thing. Therefore, Yu Changsheng didn't have any other thoughts about the Ten Thousand Poison Dragon.

In other words, it originally belonged to Li Minghan, so Yu Changsheng naturally wouldn't covet it. After pondering for a moment, Yu Changsheng looked up, met Li Minghan's expectant yet slightly apprehensive gaze, and nodded with a smile:

"Alright, when we get to the Abyss, you guide me through the way. Let's go and subdue the Ten Thousand Poison Dragon for you first. It's better to subdue such a spirit beast as soon as possible to avoid any unforeseen problems and have someone else get it first."

Upon hearing this, Li Minghan's face beamed with excitement. He immediately hugged Yu Changsheng tightly, patted his back, and chuckled gratefully, saying:

"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony. Thank you for your kindness, Changsheng. If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know."

"We're brothers, no need to be so polite."

Yu Changsheng smiled and said that he would keep this matter in mind. After looking at Li Minghan's satisfied expression, he chatted for a while and then walked towards the military camp.

Watching Yu Changsheng's retreating figure, Li Minghan took a deep breath after a long while, calming his excited emotions. He pursed his lips slightly, a hint of inner conflict flashing in the depths of his eyes.

He was not surprised by Yu Changsheng's agreement.

"The gap between me and immortality is still quite large... If I successfully obtain the Myriad Poison Dragon this time, coupled with my accumulation over the years..."

"Then I will have a better chance in the selection of the next generation of geniuses of the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower, and thus have more say... Only by going to the core can I better help Changsheng... I hope this trip will go smoothly."

Li Minghan exhaled a breath of stale air, shook his head, suppressed these thoughts, withdrew his gaze, and turned back to his tent. Since he was going to subdue the Ten Thousand Poison Dragon, there were still some preparations that needed to be completed.

As for the Ten Thousand Beasts Pavilion, a renowned merchant organization on the continent, its power is immense. It is unimaginable that the power it has revealed in a remote place like Wuzhou is merely the tip of the iceberg.

While he enjoys befriending the prodigies of other sects, he naturally has his own selection methods for his own disciples. The outstanding ones are promoted, and can even rise rapidly in rank, gaining higher status and more resources.

Although Li Minghan was just the son of a branch lord, he was qualified to compete, which meant he had an opportunity.

Putting aside everything else, the resources of such chambers of commerce are enormous, making them the envy of many. Cultivating a powerful figure within them wouldn't be difficult...

Li Minghan clearly had his own plans. In fact, he wasn't the only one with plans; both Zhang Tianwen and Shen Xingchen had their own thoughts.

.........

After saying goodbye to Li Minghan, Yu Changsheng didn't dwell on it. He walked around the military camp, and before he knew it, it was late at night. The bright moon hung high, parting the clouds and revealing the stars, which scattered endless starlight.

The moonlight slanted down like water, falling upon the large tent and dappling it with light. The military camp was silent, save for the occasional soft footsteps of the soldiers. A faint scent of blood lingered in the air, and a chilling atmosphere permeated the air. (End of Chapter)
