Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

"Empty your mind and do not resist. Place a wisp of your true spirit on it and do not have any other thoughts. Otherwise, I will not be able to protect you under the backlash of this contract power."

As two strange, blood-gold runes flashed and merged into the foreheads of the man and the beast, Li Minghan gave a final, concerned instruction before completely immersing himself in the contract.

"Waaaaah!"

The Poisonous Dragon roared, glanced up at Yu Changsheng, and slowly closed its eyes. The blood-gold runes on its forehead shone brightly, and an invisible connection linked Li Minghan with it.

The contract scroll suddenly burst into flames, turning into tiny specks of golden light that completely enveloped the man and the beast. As the golden light merged with them, the connection between the man and the beast became even stronger, and a sense of intimacy arose spontaneously.

"call……"

Seeing this, Yu Changsheng slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, feeling at peace. At this point, the contract was half completed.

Not long after the contract was established, Li Minghan's aura suddenly became vast, and his cultivation power rose at an incredible speed.

Like a volcanic eruption, it was uncontrollable from the start. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the air surged wildly into Li Minghan's body, and the faint golden light enveloped him once again.

"Is he about to break through to the Golden Core stage?" Yu Changsheng looked at Li Minghan in surprise, his eyes flickering slightly. Sensing the increasingly profound aura emanating from him, he waved his sleeve and personally stood guard beside him to protect him.

Yu Changsheng was somewhat surprised by Li Minghan's sudden breakthrough, but upon reflection, he felt it was quite reasonable. Li Minghan's cultivation had already reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, and now he had contracted with the late-stage third-tier Poisonous Dragon, which was comparable to the late-stage Golden Core. With the support of his cultivation, it was just right for him to break through to the Golden Core stage in one fell swoop.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

The spiritual energy stirred and gathered into wind and clouds. Fortunately, spiritual energy was not lacking in this abyss, so the whole process did not last long. Everything went smoothly without any other accidents, and this breakthrough came naturally.

Before long, Li Minghan opened his eyes again, a sharp glint flashing in them. He subconsciously clenched his fist and threw a punch, causing the air to surge and the violent force of the punch to create a series of sonic booms.

A powerful aura unique to the Golden Core stage surged forth from Li Minghan's body.

"Finally, I've reached the Golden Core stage too..."

Li Minghan let out a long breath, filled with emotion.

In Wuzhou, a Golden Core cultivator is already considered a master. Apart from the Three Sects and Six Schools, in other places, they even have the qualifications to establish their own sect.

"Congratulations."

Seeing Li Minghan break through, Yu Changsheng clasped his hands and smiled, while the other disciples also looked at Li Minghan with complicated or envious eyes and sincerely congratulated him.

They had no objection to Li Minghan's contract with the Ten Thousand Poison Dragon. There were few beast tamers in this group to begin with, and they had hardly contributed anything. Moreover, out of respect for Yu Changsheng, they naturally wouldn't say anything.

"Thank you all for your support."

Li Minghan came to his senses, bowed respectfully to everyone, and chuckled.

In any case, they did manage to delay the nine venomous dragon lizards for a while, and Li Minghan would naturally be grateful to them for their help.

"Alright, it's good that you've broken through. This will give you more strength to protect yourself during your journey through the abyss."

Yu Changsheng smiled and patted Li Minghan on the shoulder.

Undoubtedly, Li Minghan's breakthrough in cultivation, coupled with the contract with the powerful beast taming beast, the Ten Thousand Poison Dragon, a late-stage third-tier beast, will naturally bring about a dramatic change in his combat strength. In this journey through the abyss, he can be considered to have the strength to compete with other geniuses.

"Thank you, Changsheng. I won't say more about my gratitude; I will always remember this kindness."

Li Minghan clasped his hands in a fist salute, bowed deeply to Yu Changsheng, his tone sincere and his expression unusually serious.

This time, without Yu Changsheng's help to suppress the Myriad Poison Dragon, his chances of successfully forming a contract would have been nothing short of a pipe dream.

Yu Changsheng was surprised and paused for a moment. He looked at Li Minghan, finally smiled, winked at him, and said, "We're brothers, why be so polite?"

"Besides, I didn't come away empty-handed."

The venomous dragon lizard was one of the spoils of Yu Changsheng's trip, and it had other uses for him.

"Yeah?"

Li Minghan rubbed his nose, chuckled, turned to look at the Myriad Poison Dragon, slapped his forehead, and said with deep emotion:

"From now on, we'll be partners fighting side by side. Whatever grudges we had before, that's all in the past. No more petty tricks, okay?"

"Hmph." The Poisonous Dragon turned its head away, snorting disdainfully through its nostrils, and said in a low, buzzing voice, "Don't worry, since that's the case, I won't do anything foolish. I just hope you'll keep your promise."

"That's for sure, don't worry." Li Minghan smiled sheepishly.

"That's good."

Wan Du Ya Long nodded, and under Yu Chang Sheng's seemingly indifferent gaze, he turned around somewhat awkwardly, transforming into a stream of light and returning to his inner world.

"This guy is actually quite afraid of me."

Yu Changsheng smiled wryly.

"That's right, I guess I'll hold a grudge against you for a long time."

Li Minghan laughed it off, not caring at all.

"Whatever." Yu Changsheng waved his hand and shrugged, then thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, what did you promise him? What did you make him agree to be your tamed beast?"

Yu Changsheng looked at Li Minghan with curiosity in his eyes.

Li Minghan was taken aback, a hint of hesitation appearing on his face. He clapped his outstretched fingers and said, "It's nothing much, I just promised him that I would take him to see the world beyond the abyss, and if the opportunity arises, I'll introduce him to a few female dragons..."

Li Minghan chuckled as he spoke.

"..." Yu Changsheng fell silent upon hearing this, his lips twitching slightly.

"Goodness, you've taken the idea of ​​dragons being inherently lewd to the extreme," Yu Changsheng laughed, while pondering inwardly.

"I was just trying it out." Li Minghan laughed, rubbing the back of his head with one hand and his temples with the other, his expression strange. After a slight pause, he continued:

"I was just thinking that although this abyss is vast, it is ultimately just a small world. If the Thousand Poison Dragon is confined to this small pond for most of its life, it would be a great pity. I suppose it would like to see a bigger world instead of being huddled in a corner of this abyss."

"Besides being bound by a contract with me, he has no other way to leave the abyss in the short term, so I just went along with it and gave him another condition he couldn't refuse..."

Li Minghan raised an eyebrow, his tone calm, but the implication in his voice made Yu Changsheng think more highly of him.

"The abyss is indeed a huge prison for the creatures within, and dragons are born proud, destined to soar through the skies, not to be confined to a pond. How could he willingly be trapped here..."

"Perhaps, this is the reason why he finally compromised and became your tamed beast."

Yu Changsheng pondered for a moment, then thought of many things, shook his head and said softly:

"But for us, isn't the world just a giant prison? Oh well, it's really rare that you can think of these things."

"Just my humble opinion. It may not be impressive, but ultimately it depends on one's own abilities."

Li Minghan said that the two of them talked while leading the group of disciples outside. The place where the Ten Thousand Poison Dragon came out was almost in the center of this huge swamp.

Besides the Myriad Poison Dragon and its vassals, there were naturally some spirit beasts among them. Yu Changsheng did not let these spirit beasts go unnoticed either, frantically scanning them with his divine sense, stopping and starting, and gaining some information.

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

"The spiritual energy in this abyss is ridiculously high. After such a battle, I haven't consumed much of it."

Yu Changsheng clicked his tongue in amazement, then relaxed his brows after sensing the magical power within his body.

In the past, summoning all his spirit beasts would have been a huge drain on his energy. Now, with the abundant spiritual energy within the abyss and the unique characteristics of his spiritual body, he doesn't need to worry too much about the energy consumption.

What moved Yu Changsheng even more was that, under the influence of the Heavenly Dao Qi and driven by the Blood Fiend Qi within the Abyss, his cultivation level had been boosted to the late Golden Core stage without him even realizing it.

This is also one of the main reasons why Yu Changsheng was so relaxed and at ease during the battle just now.

"That's fine too, it just adds to my confidence for my future actions," Yu Changsheng thought to himself, and finally smiled slightly.

As Yu Changsheng was thinking this, a thought suddenly struck him, and the Xuan Turtle's soft exclamation rang in his mind.

"Wait, let's check over there on the left. Looks like there's something good there?"

Yu Changsheng was taken aback. As he scanned the area with his divine sense again, he turned and walked to the left.

"Hmm? What did you find now?" Li Minghan looked at Yu Changsheng curiously, then followed closely behind.

"Some good stuff," Yu Changsheng casually explained, his eyes bright and gleaming with excitement. After clearing away one weed after another, he carefully stopped.

"It really was it..."

Yu Changsheng swallowed hard, and after confirming, he murmured something.

Following Yu Changsheng's gaze, Li Minghan saw a small puddle ahead, where a strange-looking plant was quietly growing in the mud, and Yu Changsheng's gaze was fixed on it.

This blade of grass was about half a person's height, with only three forked branches that drooped slenderly. Each branch had three leaves growing on it, resembling maple leaves but in a dark red color. The veins on the leaves were clearly visible, as if blood were flowing through them. The trunk was pitch black, shrouded in a faint black mist.

Aside from that, nothing seemed amiss. While Li Minghan was puzzled, he realized that anything that could excite Yu Changsheng so much must be a rare and precious treasure. Therefore, he didn't underestimate it and looked at Yu Changsheng, asking, "What is this?"

"A fifth-tier spiritual herb, the Blood-Soaked Poison Herb!"

Yu Changsheng exhaled a deep breath, a smile appearing on his face, and explained softly.

"A fifth-tier spiritual herb?"

Li Minghan was taken aback. This level of spiritual herb was more valuable than most fourth-tier pills. Especially judging from Yu Changsheng's expression, this spiritual herb seemed to be even more extraordinary.

"Hmm." Yu Changsheng nodded, his eyes shining brightly. "Although it is a spiritual herb, its medicinal properties are special and it cannot be combined with other spiritual herbs, therefore it cannot be used for alchemy."

"However, it is a special elixir in itself, requiring no additional refining. Its value is comparable to a fifth-grade elixir!"

Yu Changsheng affirmed, ignoring Li Minghan's surprised look, and after a moment's thought, continued:

"Blood-Soaked Poison Herb, a herbaceous spiritual object, has a cold and domineering medicinal nature. It is difficult to mix with other herbs. It thrives in watery and toxic places, places rich in spiritual energy and Daoist charm. When eaten, it tastes bitter and has a strong medicinal effect, but it cannot be absorbed directly. Instead, it accumulates in the body and will only slowly dissolve into the blood and flesh under the stimulation of poison."

"By continuously strengthening the physical body, it can be forged into a body that is immune to all poisons. Its value is immeasurable. We've found a treasure! We never expected to find such a good thing here."

Yu Changsheng explained, then carefully tossed aside the soil and dug out the Bloodstained Poisonous Grass. His gaze lingered on it with a hint of fascination. Then, as if remembering something, he turned to look at the disciples behind him, his expression slightly troubled.

After Yu Changsheng's explanation, the group understood the value of the Blood-Soaked Poison-Forging Grass. Amidst their surprise, their gazes lingered on the grass with a hint of longing, until they met Yu Changsheng's eyes. Then, they trembled and waved their hands in unison, saying:

"The spiritual herbs are indeed wonderful, but it was only discovered by the young sect leader. If it weren't for the young sect leader, we wouldn't even know what they were. We would just have a mountain of treasures but not know what they are. Don't worry about us. Such treasures are perfect for you, senior brother."

Shen Xingchen and Li Minghan also stepped forward at this moment, smiling slightly at Yu Changsheng:

"Alright, I know you're kind-hearted, but this kind of treasure can't be shared. Sharing it would be a waste of its medicinal properties. You should keep it for yourself. You've shared so many treasures with us along the way, so this won't make a difference."

"Yes, Changsheng, don't be shy. You've done the most work along the way. Keep it for yourself."

Zhang Tianwen chuckled, a complex look flashing in his eyes, but he still spoke sincerely.

The other disciples naturally had no objections either. Although they had run out of fifth-grade spiritual herbs along the way, Yu Changsheng had picked plenty of third-grade spiritual fruits and herbs for them, and their harvest was not small. Therefore, they would not be greedy and ask for such treasures.

To put it bluntly, even if Yu Changsheng hadn't mentioned it, they wouldn't have known its value. After all, it was extremely rare. Yu Changsheng only noticed it because of the Xuan Turtle's reminder.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Yu Changsheng remained silent for a moment, then, without being coy, nodded and spoke softly:

"Alright then, thank you all. I won't stand on ceremony."

As he spoke, Yu Changsheng gently patted his storage bag, and all the spiritual herbs he had collected along the way flew out and landed on a group of disciples, explaining as he spoke:

"This is enough for me. I probably won't need these things anymore, but they'll be of some value to you."

This action slightly surprised everyone. Their expressions changed, and their gazes towards Yu Changsheng subtly softened, revealing a newfound respect and tenderness. (End of Chapter)
