Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Inside the car, Yu Changsheng, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes.

A new communication jade slip appeared in his hand.

It was the same person who had given him the message before, and now he had sent back a new message.

Meanwhile, Chen Xueqing also received a message from the sect.

The message was slightly different from what the other person had sent back, but it was the same thing: continue the mission.

"Holy Maiden, it seems the sect is not planning to give up easily."

"It's going to be quite difficult to get them to continue this training."

"Moreover, there's a reward for whoever can save Lu Chengfeng, you see."

Yu Changsheng handed the communication jade slip to Chen Xueqing, who quickly scanned it and couldn't help but frown.

The sect is disregarding the safety of all its disciples in order to continue exploring the secret realm.

However, this outcome did not meet Chen Xueqing's expectations, and it seemed to be a decision indeed made by the sect.

"It seems that this time, in order to win the final victory, we must go and explore those natives."

"Finding enough intelligence can even earn you more points than obtaining materials for the Nascent Soul stage."

Chen Xueqing's message also listed a large number of new rules.

If we can rescue Lu Chengfeng, it would be equivalent to finding ten Nascent Soul materials.

Capturing a native with the cultivation level of Purple Mansion can yield points equivalent to two Nascent Soul materials.

This is much more efficient than directly searching for materials for Nascent Soul Transformation.

"It seems that although the sect did not force us to rescue people, it was a tacit request."

Yu Changsheng smiled wryly, "There's no other way; it seems we have no choice but to do as they say."

"Besides, these new rules are actually beneficial to us."

Looking at their current situation, that's certainly the case.

As for the dozens of natives here, they are too weak to meet the requirements of the Sea Beast Sky Island.

According to the rules, only natives with a cultivation level of Purple Mansion or higher can be counted as points, and it is best to capture them alive.

I followed the group for a day and a night.

The leader suddenly came into the car and started chattering away while pointing outside.

Yu Changsheng and Chen Xueqing exchanged a glance. "It looks like we've arrived at a destination. I'll go out and take a look."

Yu Changsheng got up and went outside with the leader, only to find that they had arrived in a mountain forest.

There seemed to be other natives here, and the chief's men were trading the wolf pelts and other goods they had brought with them.

However, there doesn't seem to be any currency here; everything is done through barter.

What intrigued Yu Changsheng even more was the wolf pelts and the goods the leader had brought.

Some of them were actually the same orange stones they had obtained before!

Another part is a strange plant.

Yu Changsheng's heart immediately burned with excitement.

I never expected that I could exchange treasures for these orange stones here.

Yu Changsheng temporarily named it Orange Crystal. He saw the leader bring over a dozen Orange Crystals, seemingly to give to Yu Changsheng.

These were all obtained through bartering wolf pelts, and only a portion of them.

Yu Changsheng did not refuse, and took out some more materials from his storage bag.

Basically, they were all materials such as furs that had been obtained from pirates.

This item seems to be very valuable to these indigenous people.

More importantly, the materials used for these furs are not those of first or second-tier spirit beasts.

They are at least third-tier spirit beast materials, and most of them are even fourth-tier spirit beast materials.

The quality is far superior to that of the indigenous chieftain's stuff.

Yu Changsheng took out several and asked the leader to identify them.

Sensing the intense aura emanating from the fur, the leader's expression changed, filled with horror.

Although the items Yu Changsheng brought out were of average quality, they were still quite good for these people.

Yu Changsheng pointed to the orange crystal in his hand, his meaning quite clear.

The leader immediately nodded, and after tidying up all the furs that Yu Changsheng had taken out, he went to communicate with another group of natives.

Yu Changsheng originally wanted to wait a while. He didn't care how many crystals he exchanged for some furs, as long as it was about the same amount.

However, before he could stay for long, the leader started arguing with the other party, and the situation immediately became quite tense, apparently because the price had not been agreed upon.

The leader's side is clearly at a disadvantage, given their significant numerical disadvantage.

Seeing this, Yu Changsheng also went over.

Seeing the two sides locked in a standoff, both armed with numerous weapons, the leader, whose body was covered in faintly visible runes, clearly displayed a threatening intent.

Yu Changsheng glanced at the leader with a smile.

When the leader saw Yu Changsheng appear, he was immediately shaken, as he was very clear about the strength that Yu Changsheng had displayed before.

They started arguing again, which enraged the man who was leading the group. He waved his hand, ready to attack Yu Changsheng and the others.

Yu Changsheng made no other move; the Golden-Winged Roc appeared behind him instantly, its huge wings whipping up a whirlwind.

It blew away the surrounding natives.

Sensing the powerful aura of the fourth-tier Golden-Winged Roc spirit beast, the leader of the opposing group immediately turned pale with fright.

The runes on his body instantly disappeared, and he dared not cause any more trouble.

Seeing this, the others also knelt down to show their submission, and no one dared to harbor any hostility towards Yu Changsheng.

The leader, looking smug, stepped directly on the head of the other party's leader.

He then ordered his men to rob these people of everything.

Originally, I was thinking of making a deal with them.

But now that they've turned against each other, these people have no intention of being polite anymore and have robbed the other party of everything.

The leader knew that what Yu Changsheng needed most was that kind of orange crystal.

He simply handed over all the orange crystals to Yu Changsheng.

The quantity is at least several hundred yuan.

As for the other things, Yu Changsheng didn't want them either, and gave them all to the leader.

The leader was overjoyed; this gain was considerable. Although he had offended the people here, it was all worth it!

For these people, fighting and raiding between tribes was a common occurrence.

Only strength matters.

Seeing that he had already looted most of it, Yu Changsheng thought it was over.

To everyone's surprise, the leader started to control those people as well, locking them in cages.

Yu Changsheng then realized that human resources were also a very important resource for these indigenous people.

Yu Changsheng had more or less guessed the fate of these people who were imprisoned.

More than forty people were imprisoned.

The leader was satisfied and immediately ordered his men to leave.

He then invited Yu Changsheng back to the car and started chattering away.

Yu Changsheng couldn't understand, so he could only shake his head and return to the car.

Chen Xueqing was still waiting in the car. When she saw Yu Changsheng return, she quickly asked:

"What happened outside? Why was there such a loud commotion?"

"There was just a small conflict, but it's been resolved."

Yu Changsheng casually tossed out a bag of orange crystals.

When Chen Xueqing opened it, she was surprised to see so many orange crystals.

"Where did these things come from? Could they be from those people outside?"

Yu Changsheng laughed and said, "Hehe, I was originally thinking of exchanging some spirit beast materials, but who knew they would try to harm us."

"I had no choice but to take action; these things were essentially stolen!"

"The points from so many materials should be equivalent to one or two Nascent Soul stage materials, right?"

Chen Xueqing looked at the orange crystal in the bag, even though this ordinary material could only be exchanged for a small number of points.

However, the total amount of these materials is indeed enough to be equivalent to the materials needed for a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Hehe, I knew this trip was definitely worth it."

"Not only did we reap the rewards, but we also perfectly avoided the risks."

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

Chen Xueqing smiled faintly, what else could she say, but in the end, Yu Changsheng's decision was correct.

"It's worth it, but this little bit isn't enough. What are your plans afterward?"

"Since this route is correct, why change it? I think we should continue following this group. It provides good cover and also gives us the opportunity to obtain more materials."

"If we're lucky, we might even get one or two Nascent Soul materials."

Chen Xueqing nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it this way."

Outside, after the leader had finished packing, he led his troops on their way again.

However, this time they did not continue forward, but returned the way they came.

Yu Changsheng was also somewhat confused, but since neither of them could communicate, they could only take it one step at a time.

The return journey was relatively much slower.

During this time, the leader brought Yu Changsheng food a few times, but did not bother him much else.

Yu Changsheng also spent most of his time cultivating.

But Yu Changsheng always kept the Golden-Winged Roc flying outside.

On the one hand, it can serve as a vigilance for the surroundings, and on the other hand, it can provide early warnings in case of danger.

On the other hand, if they come across anything good, they won't miss it.

However, the journey was quite peaceful, which was probably because the road was relatively safe, which is why the leader chose it.

After two days of travel, the group seemed to have reached its destination.

The leader immediately found Yu Changsheng and then took the two of them to a place.

Only then did Yu Changsheng realize that he had arrived at a small fortified town.

It is located on the edge of a forest and built on a high slope.

Not only were there these natives around, but there were also various kinds of domesticated mythical beasts. This was probably the natives' lair.

The leader led Yu Changsheng and the other man into a tent made of animal hides.

As soon as Yu Changsheng entered, he saw an old man lying on the bed.

What surprised Yu Changsheng even more was that the old man's clothes were completely different from those of other indigenous people; they looked more like clothing from the outside world.

After the leader approached the old man and muttered something to him, the old man immediately began to cough violently.

He struggled to sit up and looked at Yu Changsheng in disbelief.

"You, you are from Sea Beast Sky Island!"

Upon hearing the familiar language, Yu Changsheng was also pleasantly surprised.

"You can actually talk?"

The old man exclaimed excitedly, "I'm from the outside world! Could it be that the entrance to the secret realm has reopened?"

"Haha, I can finally go out!"

"Please, take me out of here!"

"Wait a minute!"

Yu Changsheng raised his hand to let him calm down.

"Take your time and don't be so hasty. Tell me about your situation first."

The old man finally calmed down a bit.

He then slowly spoke, saying, "My name is Wang Ji, and I am a disciple of the Sea Beast Heavenly Island who mistakenly entered this place many years ago."

"I never imagined that so many years would pass, and I would grow old, yet I still haven't seen the entrance open."

"Finally, I have the opportunity to go out!"

"May I ask if you are someone from Sea Beast Heavenly Island?"

Yu Changsheng asked in confusion, "I am indeed you, but how did you get trapped here?"

"In principle, ordinary disciples are not allowed to come outside the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range, let alone return even if they cross the boundary."

"Alas, it's a long story. I wasn't originally a disciple in the quota; I stumbled into the sect by accident, so I didn't have any communication tokens with disciples from other sects."

"I had no idea about the rules, which is why I stumbled into this area by accident."

"Who knew that as soon as I arrived here, I would be attacked by spirit beasts. In the midst of the crisis, I hid in a crevice in a cliff and that's how I survived."

"But the spirit beast didn't leave, and I didn't dare to leave either, so I just stayed there."

"It wasn't until several months later, when the spirit beast probably thought I was dead, that it left."

"But what I didn't expect was that the entrance had already been closed, and I've been trapped here for decades."

"Sigh, I never expected it. One wrong step back then would lead to such an ending."

Yu Changsheng had many doubts in his mind, because there were too many things to consider in what the old man said.

"If that's the case, how did you get to know the people here?"

The old man sighed, "These people have only appeared here in the last twenty years or so; I've never seen them before."

"After my encounter with them, I was initially hesitant to make contact. Later, I tried to trade with them using some items."

"That's how I started to get to know these people, and that's how I joined the tribe."

Yu Changsheng asked, "So how did you communicate with these people?"

The old man chuckled and said, "To my shame, because I'm so lonely, I've also started studying these people's languages."

"Over the past twenty years, I've become quite proficient in their language. If you'd like to learn, I can teach you."

"Just take me away from here! Let me go back to Sea Beast Sky Island! To see my family."

Yu Changsheng immediately agreed, "Of course, that's no problem."

"I can take you back, and I can even help you hide your identity so that you won't be punished by the sect."

The old man was overjoyed, never expecting that Yu Changsheng had even thought of this for him. He immediately knelt on the bed to express his gratitude.

At the same time, he handed a jade talisman to Yu Changsheng, saying, "This jade talisman contains the language of these people. You only need to stick it on your forehead to understand the knowledge inside."

Yu Changsheng took the jade talisman and exclaimed in surprise, "This kind of technology is truly amazing! How did you make it?"

"Heh, it's all thanks to these people's skills!"

"Although these people are weak, they have a lot of skill in using magic that we Sea Beast Sky Island do not know."

Yu Changsheng nodded and stuck the jade talisman on his forehead.

Suddenly, a flood of knowledge rushed into his mind, and a bunch of strange characters and pronunciations kept appearing. (End of Chapter)
