Chapter 58: Comparison of the Attributes of Three Spirit Beasts


[Species: Jade Scale Demon Spider]

[Bloodline: High Level Tier One]

[Talents: Danger Perception, Jade Scale, Highly Poisonous Spider Silk]

Danger Perception: Has a certain predictive ability for crises that might befall itself. It cannot predict crises that far exceed its own capacity.

Jade Scale: The body is covered by a layer of jade-like scales, providing strong defensive capabilities.

Highly Poisonous Spider Silk: The transparent spider silk it spits is laced with sharp barbs and is highly poisonous. The silk is also notably strong, adhesive, and flexible.

...

[Species: Li Fire Crow]

[Bloodline: Low-Level Tier Two]

[Talents: Fire Separation Body, Fire of Separation, Perceiving the Great Sun]

Fire Separation Body: A trace of the ancient Golden Crow bloodline courses through its body, granting it a high talent in fire attribute cultivation. By consuming fire attribute spiritual objects, it can rapidly boost its power.

Fire of Separation: Due to the trace of ancient Golden Crow bloodline, a flame possessing extremely strong burning capabilities is born, named "Fire of Separation."

Perceiving the Great Sun: Innately attuned to the Great Sun through its bloodline, capable of absorbing the Power of the Great Sun to enhance itself beneath it.

...

[Species: Illusory Moon White Fox]

[Bloodline: Low-Level Tier Two]

[Talents: Innate Intelligence, Resilient Divine Soul, Demonic Fox Illusion Technique]

Innate Intelligence: Innately intelligent, possessing a high comprehension and learning ability.

Resilient Divine Soul: A high talent in the divine soul, with the power of the divine soul surpassing most spirit beasts of the same level, granting strong resistance to divine soul attacks.

Demonic Fox Illusion Technique: Extremely high talent in illusion techniques, capable of killing invisibly with illusions.

...

"Jade Scale Demon Spider, Li Fire Crow, Illusory Moon White Fox..."

These three spirit beasts were the ones Qi Ping ultimately chose from among the seven spirit beasts, and he had already thoroughly studied their specific information from the archives, which matched what Boss Gao had said.

Others, like the Shadow Snake priced at six to seven thousand spirit stones, Qi Ping could only pass on; it was not something he could afford at the moment.

Moreover, even if Qi Ping could afford it, with his current strength it would be drawing too much attention. Six to seven thousand spirit stones compared to over a thousand spirit stones is a whole different concept. There's a substantial possibility of attracting the covetous eyes of high-ranking Foundation Establishment cultivators; the seller might even be a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"These three spirit beasts each have their strengths, and they will greatly aid me..."

The Jade Scale Demon Spider, although a single entity among the spirit insect demon beasts, is nearly the size of a human head. With the talents of highly poisonous spider silk and jade scale, its combat power is considerable, with the highly poisonous spider silk being particularly suitable for home defense.

At the same time, the Jade Scale Demon Spider also has the talent of danger perception, allowing it to sense many impending crises. This talent was enough to make Qi Ping salivate.

Foreseeing danger + transformed bee to escape quickly; it's simply a talent beyond his dreams!

Moreover, the Jade Scale Demon Spider can also be nurtured using the "Demon Insect Cultivation Manual," holding remarkable future potential.

Li Fire Crow is another spirit beast Qi Ping is very tempted by.

One might even say that compared to the Jade Scale Demon Spider, Qi Ping is more tempted by the Li Fire Crow.

Because the Li Fire Crow, possessing a trace of thin Golden Crow bloodline, holds the potential to continually awaken its bloodline as long as there are sufficient fire attribute spiritual objects to nurture it. Its potential might even surpass that of the Jade Scale Demon Spider!

Qi Ping's "Plant Growth" skill can cultivate a relatively ample amount of fire attribute spiritual medicine, perfectly aligning with this feature of the Li Fire Crow.

To others, nurturing the Li Fire Crow might be extravagantly expensive, but for Qi Ping, it's just right. His "Plant Growth"-cultivated spiritual medicine is not suitable to expose, making it more fitting to use on the Li Fire Crow.

Normally, the Li Fire Crow doesn't have much demand for food; basking in the sun is enough to satisfy its hunger, making it easy to care for...

Moreover, the point that truly makes Qi Ping the most excited is that any of the Li Fire Crow's three main talents can greatly enhance Qi Ping's fire attribute talent.

Whichever of the three talents Qi Ping shares, his future cultivation of the high-level "Wood Flame Technique" will yield twice the result with half the effort, laying a more solid foundation for his cultivation.

When Qi Ping experiments to successfully convert the Fire Spirit Body Tempering Pill into the Fire Spirit Body Tempering Pill (Honey Edition), it will perfectly complement the Li Fire Crow and its talents.

The final, most expensive option, the Illusory Moon White Fox, in Qi Ping's mind, has a lower priority than the Jade Scale Demon Spider, but it's not inferior.

The Illusory Moon White Fox possesses high comprehension and divine soul talent. If Qi Ping could contract with one, it would be a huge gain, as enhancing divine souls and comprehension in the Immortal Cultivation Realm is quite challenging.

The current demand for divine soul and comprehension talents for Qi Ping, however, is not as pressing as that of bodily aptitude talents.

Additionally, while swarm combat ability is impressive, it has an evident weakness of being vulnerable to divine soul attacks.

Despite its vicious physical attributes and vast numbers, it's especially prone to collapse under divine soul attacks.

The Illusory Moon White Fox's talents in divine soul and illusions can compensate to some extent for this weakness, pairing well with the bee swarm.

...

Overall, Qi Ping is fairly satisfied with these three spirit beasts.

Currently, speaking in terms of price, the situations of the three spirit beasts are as follows:

Jade Scale Demon Spider: Young form, suitable for building a bond from a young age between the beast and its tamer. The price is estimated at around thirteen hundred spirit stones.

Li Fire Crow: Semi-mature form. Initially at the perfection stage of Tier One, due to damaged bloodline its realm fell to mid Tier One. Nurturing it again requires a large number of fire attribute spiritual objects; the price has decreased from the normal market value of three thousand spirit stones to around fifteen hundred spirit stones.

Illusory Moon White Fox: Young form, price estimated to start from two thousand spirit stones.

The prices of these three spirit beasts are not high; they are actually somewhat lower than the normal market price Qi Ping is aware of, which aligns with what Boss Gao mentioned earlier. There are fewer beast tamers in Qingshi County, thus the prices are comparatively lower.

Therefore, buying spirit beasts here is like getting a bargain for Qi Ping, although there are fewer options to choose from.

...

While Qi Ping was pondering, Boss Gao stood quietly at the side, not rushing him.

After all, these are items worth one to two thousand spirit stones; any Qi Refining Cultivator would need to be careful.

"Boss Gao, I've mostly made up my mind. Let's go take a look at these three spirit beasts and discuss the prices in detail, so I can finally decide which one to buy..."

"Sure, no problem! Every spirit beast has a different personality. It's indeed necessary to see them in person to feel which one suits you. Shall we set off now?"

"Hold on a moment, Boss Gao, do you have any black clothes here?" Qi Ping asked.

"Black clothes? Yes, I do! Brother Qi, please wait a moment!"

Boss Gao was first puzzled, then suddenly realized and promptly found a set of black clothes and a head cover for Qi Ping to wear.

A moment later, Qi Ping donned in black clothes and concealed his aura, accompanied Boss Gao into a shop on the north side.

The shop housed numerous spirit beasts, among which was the Jade Scale Demon Spider.

The other spirit beasts, Qi Ping glanced over, were far inferior to the Jade Scale Demon Spider, so he focused his attention on it.

It was a Jade Scale Demon Spider not even the size of a palm, its entire body covered in scales like white jade, as if sculpted from white jade.....
