Sharing Tamed Beasts' Talents for Eternal Life

Chapter 4: Contracted Spirit Pet

After returning to the Imperial Beast Peak, He Qingge sighed with emotion. This transaction was very smooth. The suppression from the Zhang family that he was worried about did not happen.

He planned to use the remaining points to exchange for Sound-Listening Grass and Spirit-Gathering Grass. These two spiritual herbs were stored on the Imperial Beast Peak, and the points exchanged for them varied according to the herbs' age.

"Hey, why are you willing to use your points all of a sudden?" The manager of the Merit Room of the Imperial Beast Peak, Li Le, teased.

He Qingge had always been kind to others since he started cultivating. The people around him were very amiable, especially the people of the Imperial Beast Peak. Basically, everyone knew him. He could be considered a small celebrity on the Imperial Beast Peak.

Moreover, Li Le and He Qingge were in the same batch of people who entered the Imperial Beast Peak, so their relationship was closer. They took care of each other and complemented each other's resources.

The beast milk in He Qingge's Spirit Beast Garden was not cheap if it was bought according to points or spirit beasts. However, He Qingge used his talent—The Heart of Beast Taming—to increase the amount of milk produced by the spirit beasts and meet the needs of the Imperial Beast Peak. The rest could be distributed by him. Over the years, the beast milk had formed a good profit chain. He could even get information and resources.

Otherwise, where would he have gotten the information about the Zhang family? How could he have accumulated 10,000 points of the Imperial Beast Peak in 20 years? Even if he had been the steward of the Spirit Beast Garden for 20 years, he would not have been able to gather so many points. He did it all through business.

"I got what I wanted. I have a spirit pet now. I'm going to hold a banquet to celebrate in a few days. Brother Li, you must come!" He Qingge said with a smile. There was no need to hide this matter at all. One's safety at the Imperial Beast Peak was guaranteed. Moreover, such news could not be hidden.

"Alright, alright. Let me know when the time is set." Li Le smiled and agreed.

"Brother Li, I want to exchange for a thousand-year-old Sound-Listening Grass and a thousand-year-old Spirit-Gathering Grass." He Qingge looked at the exchange list on the screen.

"Are you sure?" Li Le was a little surprised. These two spiritual herbs were not very valuable. It was just that some spirit beasts liked to eat them. Even so, a thousand-year-old spiritual herb was not cheap.

"I'm sure. It's worth it for my darling," He Qingge said with heartache.

He still had 2,000 points of the Imperial Beast Peak left, but it was not enough to exchange for these two spiritual herbs. No matter how worthless they were, they were still thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. However, Li Le was the manager here. His talent was very good, and he was already at the late stage of the Qi Refinement Realm. If he was at the late stage of the Qi Refinement Realm for 20 years, his talent would be very strong. Otherwise, he would not be able to sit firmly as the manager of the Merit Room.

With his current strength and talent, he could actually apply to become an outer disciple. However, he was still a miscellaneous disciple here.

From this, one could see how good the Merit Room was.

He was planning to become an official disciple by staying here.

He Qingge's spirit beast milk played a big role in this. This was a binding of interests.

Returning to the Spirit Beast Garden, He Qingge opened the Minor Five Elements Defense Array and prepared to enter seclusion to contract the spirit beast egg.

After entering the room, he picked up the medicinal cauldron from the corner and gently wiped it. A few years ago, he had thought of learning a side job if his talent was not good enough, but in the end, he had to give up because his talent was average and the costs were too expensive.

However, with his The Heart of Beast Taming, he used the medicinal cauldron to refine many spiritual liquids that the spirit beasts in the garden loved to drink. Among them, there was a spiritual liquid that increased the quality and quantity of the spirit beast's milk.

The most commonly used spiritual liquid was the one that increased the amount of beast milk. After all, increasing the quality might attract attention.

He carefully took out a jade box. Inside it were the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs he had exchanged for and a few ten-year-old spiritual herbs.

He was prepared to try out the ten-year-old spiritual herbs first to prevent any accidents.

He put down the cauldron and formed a seal with his fingers. He was already familiar with the art of igniting fire.

He heated up the cauldron and placed two ten-year-old spiritual herbs into it. He slowly boiled them over a small fire. Soon, the two spiritual herbs began to make a small sound before dissolving into the spiritual liquid. He Qingge controlled the fire evenly until the spiritual liquid was completely refined. A fresh smell assaulted his nose. It was obvious that he had succeeded. He used his spiritual power to remove the impurities and stored the liquid in a jade bottle.

Then, he took out the Cleansing Talisman to remove the remnants of the cauldron to prevent the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs from being contaminated.

The same method was used to refine the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. Unfortunately, He Qingge still underestimated the thousand-year-old spiritual herbs. The effort and consumption far exceeded his expectations. Fortunately, he had prepared a Qi Replenishment Pill in advance, or else he would have failed.

After 12 hours, the thousand-year-old spiritual liquid was finally refined. Not only was the amount of spiritual liquid not as much as the ten-year-old spiritual liquid, but it was even less. However, it seemed that the spiritual liquid was more potent, locking the essence of the herbs inside.

He carefully placed the egg of the Sound-Gathering Butterfly into the spiritual liquid. He pierced his finger with his spiritual power and forced out a wisp of origin blood essence, dripping it onto the spirit beast egg.

His face instantly paled, and his expression withered. He quickly picked up the jade gourd beside him and poured the Hundred Beast Milk into his mouth to nourish his body.

He Qingge had concocted the Hundred Beast Milk herself. It had the effects of replenishing qi and blood, nourishing yin and yang, and replenishing essence and marrow.

It greatly alleviated the injuries on his body. He could clearly sense the connection between him and the spirit beast egg. He could feel the egg's breathing. It was asleep.

In just three days, the Sound-Gathering Butterfly hatched, and He Qingge successfully contracted his first spirit pet.

[Evolution: None]

He Qingge felt the change and was shocked speechless. His spiritual root purity was originally 20, but now it had become 35. Although it was only a difference of 15 points, it could make He Qingge's cultivation efficiency much higher. If he had such talent from the beginning, coupled with a large amount of spirit beast milk, he might have broken through to the sixth level of Qi Refinement.

His cultivation became slower and slower as he progressed. It took him half a year to enter the beginner level of Qi Refinement, a year and a half to break through to the second level, three years to break through to the third level, and nine years to break through to the fourth level. He had been stuck at the bottleneck for many years.

The Sound-Gathering Butterfly's talent had also increased, and its ability was also more powerful. He Qingge was very excited that it was at the first level of the Qi Refinement Realm. Its perception was much stronger than his own.

The most important thing was that He Qingge could also share the ability of the Sound-Gathering Butterfly, especially Spirit Gathering. It could further improve his spiritual root purity, which was equivalent to a small portable spirit gathering array.

He Qingge was ready to try sharing talents. He wanted to try Hearing first.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, He Qingge clutched his head and wailed in pain. Too many voices entered his ears in an instant. His brain seemed to be overstimulated and could not process too much information.

The sound of the wind, the sound of insects, the sound of breathing, the sounds of conversation…

Fortunately, He Qingge slowly adapted to this situation. Her brain seemed to be more flexible, and he could clearly distinguish every sound. This ability was simply heaven-defying. It was a divine weapon for eavesdropping.

Soon, he sensed a creature squatting on a tall tree outside his own garden. He could feel its breathing.

He Qingge immediately became alert.
