Chapter 36: Second Rank Water Mist Spirit Python Corpse
Flying is truly a wondrous feeling.
No wonder everyone in the world pursues the ability to fly; this joy of looking down upon heaven and earth is truly intoxicating!
"As expected, only from a height can one see the most beautiful scenery!"
"This is the allure of cultivation!"
Yu Changsheng stood on the Iron Eagle King's back, spreading his arms with heroic passion; wind and clouds flowed continuously past his fingertips.
Because the Iron Eagle King's back was broad, and with the protection of its feathered wings' demonic power, he felt no discomfort at all; on the contrary, the process was very stable.
"Wuh!"
The Iron Eagle King sensed its master's excitement and couldn't help but let out a low cry, then its body swayed slightly and it accelerated, skimming past the cloud layers.
This speed was already not inferior to a Qi Refining Peak cultivator's Sword Flight.
Yu Changsheng hurriedly used the Beast Taming Art to shout anxiously with his Divine Sense.
"Idiot, you overdid it, you flew past it!"
The excited Iron Eagle King flew straight out of Yu Fang City in one go, and was even about to fly out of the Wanxiang Sect's range.
Fortunately, Yu Changsheng, this old driver, wasn't obsessed with autopilot; sensing the location was wrong, he hurriedly made it turn around.
One person and one beast landed steadily outside Yu Fang City.
"Phew, you'll have to control yourself in the future; traveling can't involve emotions, otherwise who knows where you'll fly to by the time you come to your senses."
Yu Changsheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Although flying out of Yu Fang City was no big deal, the sky at the edge of the Wanxiang Sect has a Sect-Protecting Grand Array, and those places are guarded by Foundation Establishment Elders; if he, an Outer Disciple, were shot down as an enemy, how unlucky would that be.
The Iron Eagle King shrank its head and nodded guiltily.
In the future it must be a qualified mount.
After Yu Changsheng recalled it into the Inner Landscape, he walked toward Inner Market Street, and at the same time had already put on a hood and mask, using a Disguise Pendant to disguise himself as Qi Refining Peak.
"Immortal Master Luo~"
The blue-robed female cultivator of the Wan Beast Tower saw him, revealed a smile, and very familiarly came up to greet him, asking: "This time, I wonder if you want to buy a spirit pet or sell spirit chickens?"
Four spirit chickens a month, Yu Changsheng had already dealt with them all, with no surplus left, so he spoke up: "You should have demonic beast corpses or flesh for sale, right?"
The blue-robed female cultivator nodded, smiling: "We do, most are ordinary First Rank Demonic Beasts; Second Rank Demonic Beasts can also be obtained, it's just more troublesome. What kind of demonic beast does Dao Friend Luo want?"
"Let's look at Fire Attribute demonic beasts first." Yu Changsheng replied.
A living demonic beast's value is higher than a dead one, but because capturing demonic beasts is very difficult, unless one's strength crushes them, casualties will inevitably occur, so many cultivators choose to kill them directly during the hunt.
After a demonic beast dies, the demonic power in its corpse continuously dissipates until completely dispersed; even putting it in a Hundred Treasures Bag or Storage Bag can only slow this down, but if placed in a Storage Ring or Space Ring, such high-grade containers, the preservation time can be measured in years.
And these corpses can serve as materials for artifact refining, talisman making, alchemy, formations, cultivating certain special methods, etc., so they are very popular.
Following the blue-robed female cultivator, he arrived at the second floor.
"Immortal Master Luo, please look, this is Fire Wu Rabbit Meat; in life it was First Rank Sixth Level, the meat is fresh and delicious; if one cultivates a Fire Attribute Cultivation Method or has a Fire Spirit Root, eating its meat can advance cultivation."
"This side is the Flame Mink Beast, in life First Rank Eighth Layer; its blood is very suitable for making talismans, can increase a Fireball Talisman's power by at least fifty percent; if for eating, I don't recommend this meat much."
"This side is the Red Crocodile, in life First Rank Seventh Layer; speaking of which, the Iron Feather Eagle we raised before quite liked this demonic beast meat; Immortal Master Luo might as well buy some to reward it?"
The blue-robed female cultivator introduced with a smile.
However, Yu Changsheng looked at these incomplete demonic beast corpses and felt not the slightest stirring in his heart. He wasn't buying demonic beast corpses purely to eat, but to fuse into an ancestor.
And for this function, the more complete the demonic beast corpse, the greater the success rate.
So, Yu Changsheng frowned and spoke: "Don't you have any complete demonic beast corpses?"
【35】 The blue-robed female cultivator froze for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said.
The blue-robed Female Cultivator froze for a moment, then gave a bitter Smile and said.
"Immortal Master Luo may not know, these demonic beast corpses are mostly supplied by Loose Cultivators; damage is unavoidable during battle, plus First Rank Demonic Beast corpses are cheap and very popular among Loose Cultivators in Yu Fang City, so every time a shipment arrives the important parts get bought up."
"The only complete corpses left in our Wan Beast Tower are Second Rank Demonic Beasts, but these corpses are far more expensive than First Rank; many Qi Refining Cultivators have no use for them and are unwilling to buy."
"If Immortal Master Luo wants a complete First Rank Demonic Beast corpse, next time a Loose Cultivator comes to sell, I'll help you keep an eye out."
Hearing this, Yu Changsheng considered a bit; he'd likely need demonic beast corpses often in the future, so he agreed.
"Good, if there's a suitable one, your tip won't be lacking."
"Take me to look at Second Rank Demonic Beasts too."
The blue-robed female cultivator's face lit up with joy and she said: "These Second Rank Demonic Beast corpses we preserve in Storage Rings, most are complete; Immortal Master Luo, please look at this list; if you choose one I'll go apply to retrieve it."
Yu Changsheng took the list and found the quantity wasn't large, but the descriptions were very complete.
"Water Mist Spirit Python, Second Rank First Layer, excels at Tide Attack, Water Mist Illusion Technique, Water System Escape Art; lives by lakes deep in the Yunwu Mountain Range, extremely fast, can use demonic power to turn its snake scales blue, immune to most Physical Attacks."
Yu Changsheng finished reading and his eyes brightened.
The Chi She Wang, because it fused with the Poison Spirit Python, currently lacks defense the most; if it could fuse the Water Mist Spirit Python's innate skill, immunity to most Physical Attacks, wouldn't that be heaven-defying?
And the Water Mist Spirit Python excels at Illusion Techniques and Escape Arts, is extremely fast; it could make the Chi She Wang's Poison Mist effect stronger and its speed faster.
The only worry is that the Chi She Wang is Fire Attribute, while the Water Mist Spirit Python has Water Attribute.
Can this water and fire fuse?
Yu Changsheng wasn't sure.
But thinking of the future after fusion, he felt it necessary to take a gamble; bicycle turning into a motorcycle, trust the System!
"This Water Mist Spirit Python is good, I'll take it!"
The blue-robed female cultivator heard this, her smile grew even more radiant; she hurriedly took back the list and said: "Then Immortal Master Luo please wait a moment, I'll go fetch the goods right away."
The Water Mist Spirit Python corpse has little use in alchemy, talisman making, etc.; the only slight use is artifact refining, but ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators wouldn't look favorably on the armor it refines, so it's been sitting in the Wan Beast Tower for a year or so.
Fortunately it was preserved in a Storage Ring, so the demonic power is still fairly intact.
A total of one thousand two hundred thirty Low-grade Spirit Stones; if it were before, Yu Changsheng absolutely couldn't have taken out this huge sum.
But in this month-plus, he refined quite a few Gathering Qi Pills and Enhancing Spirit Pills.
Among them, fifteen bottles of Gathering Qi Pills, ninety pills, sold for four hundred fifty Low-grade Spirit Stones; five bottles of Enhancing Spirit Pills, thirty pills, sold for over nine hundred Spirit Stones; therefore buying the Water Mist Spirit Python was no problem.
Soon, the Water Illusion Spirit Python's corpse ended up in Yu Zhangsheng's hands, and he still had over a hundred spirit stones left; when leaving, he saw the Red Crocodile's flesh and blood, and thought of the Iron Eagle King's diligent cultivation of late.
So he took out spirit stones and bought all the remaining Red Crocodile flesh and blood, leaving Wan Beast Tower amid the blue-robed female cultivator's laughter, the spirit stones in his pouch already nearly bottomed out.
But it's fine, as a First Grade Medicine Hall Guest Alchemist, he still has fifty low-grade spirit stones to collect each month.
Thinking this, Yu Zhangsheng arrived at First Grade Medicine Hall, and it just so happened Xi Wenyou was also looking for him.
