Strange mountains and rivers

Planting spiritual seeds was the main purpose of Chen Huai's birth. In addition, he also considered purchasing some spiritual materials directly.

He also probably told Hu Delu some situations, but he didn't make it clear or mention his plans. Firstly, he was afraid of scaring the other party, and secondly, his relationship with Hu Delu hadn't reached that stage yet.

The other thing is to consider choosing bone-tempering medicinal materials for Hu Delu.

The art of bone tempering is very complicated, but Chen Huaisheng still plans to help Hu Delu.

Although I don't want to establish a deep influence in the Chonghua Sect, I still need at least a few people who can speak to and help me.

Hu Delu has been in contact with him for so long. Generally speaking, he feels that this person has a weaker personality, a fair talent, but is relatively honest.

Chen Huaisheng had a weak personality and didn't care, and he didn't let Hu Delu make the decision.

Endowment is a good thing, but if you really have an outstanding endowment, you will definitely not be willing to be your younger brother, at least not now, such as Yuan Wenbo.

Honesty is the most important thing. What I need is an honest person, a tool man.

Chen Huaisheng planned to go back from the ghost market this time, buy enough spiritual herbs and spiritual materials, and then go into seclusion to practice hard.

If there is no special reason and you will not be able to leave the country for at least half a year or even a year, then you also need a suitable helper from outside, and Hu Delu is very suitable.

He had just entered the First Level. According to the normal progress of cultivation, this guy would not be able to reach the second level of Qi Refining in three to five years, but he wanted to help him to speed up.

A younger brother whose realm is too far away from his own will find it difficult to be competent in many things, and the necessary investment will be very valuable.

Bone tempering requires a large amount of spiritual materials to make bone tempering pills. Chen Huaisheng told Gou Yiwei about this and asked him to help find a suitable alchemist. Of course, it would be best if the bone tempering pills could be purchased directly.

But the Bone Tempering Pill is only a necessary material for bone tempering. To temper the bones, you must practice according to the Bone Tempering Technique. There is no Bone Tempering Technique in the Chonghua Sect, which is also the purpose of coming to the Dongfu Ghost Market.

However, the calligraphy skills are not the strength of the Dongfu Ghost Market. If you really want to buy the calligraphy skills, it is best to go to Bianjing or a market in a big city like Luoyi or Jiangling.

After visiting several stalls selling spiritual plants, Chen Huaisheng began to look for casual cultivators.

Casual cultivators are different from stalls that specialize in selling spiritual plants. Unlike stalls that have a wide variety of varieties and a large inventory.

However, the goods sold by casual cultivators are unique. Most of them only have one or two spiritual plants, but many of them are not easy to see in the market. The prices are also high and low, depending on the person.

"Is this Ouray leopard cub?"

Seeing a guy from the Baling Mountains who was dressed like a blue man in a cage, Chen Huaisheng couldn't help but take a deep breath. He pretended to be brave and walked aside to watch with several other monks.

"The five-year-old cub was hunted by someone in the mountains for three years. If it is over ten years old, it cannot be domesticated. Now is the best time to domesticate it. I originally wanted to wait until tomorrow to auction it. But someone had something urgent and had to leave today, so I sold it here..."

The cub's eyes were like black holes in a deep pool, pitch black, with no pupils visible. Its claws revealed dark brown sharp teeth, and a soft fur tail was slender and flexible. From the surface alone, you couldn't tell how long this thing was. When it grows up, it will be a second-level ferocious beast.

The difference between quite a few ferocious beasts and spiritual beasts is actually a thin line. Like the Ourei Leopard, which has lived in a forbidden area for a long time and was invaded by Yin Qi and then changed its temper, it became a ferocious beast. However, if it is domesticated since childhood, In the spiritual land, if you train and tame it successfully, you can become a spiritual beast.

This Black Leopard cub is the first time Chen Huaisheng has seen a second-level ferocious (spiritual) beast. Even if it is just a cub, it can still be domesticated. Even Chen Huaisheng is not very interested in domesticating spiritual beasts. I couldn't help but feel excited.

This is a second-level ferocious beast. Once it is successfully tamed and grown into an adult beast, there is nothing you can do about it below the initial stage of foundation building. Even at the peak of Qi refining, it has the ability to hunt.

But all monks who know how to tame spiritual beasts also understand that wild beasts like the Ourei Leopard are actually not suitable for taming. The taming efficiency is very low, and it may not be possible to tame one out of thirty or fifty.

Either they failed to tame them and died, or they may have a vicious backlash. It is not uncommon for tamers to be bitten to death by the backlash.

But if a monk is not afraid of such second-level ferocious beasts, he can only be above the middle stage of foundation building. Who would spend so much effort to tame a second-level spirit beast if he really reaches the level of mid-level foundation building?

Not to mention that the cost of taming this kind of spiritual beast is sky-high, but the cost of daily consumption is not something ordinary people can afford.

But no matter how high the cost is or how low the success rate is, think about it, as long as the domestication is successful, it will be like having a strong person in the early stage of foundation building as a helper, and he will obey his command unconditionally. How much help can it have?

Just for this reason, it's worth starting.

Soon Chen Huaisheng and his wife saw someone bidding.

"Three thousand spirit stones!"

"Tsk! You dare to buy a second-level spirit beast with three thousand spirit stones? Are you crazy?"

"Three thousand three hundred spirit stones!"

"Three thousand and five!"

"four thousand!"

"Four thousand and five!"

"Five thousand!"

There should be no guarantee. The people who bid for the price probably really want to pick it up. If it is less than five thousand spirit stones, it is estimated that this strange cultivator will not sell it. Chen Huaisheng estimates that five thousand spirit stones should be his bottom line.

It’s just that I can’t tell what kind of alien cultivator this is. He is strong and flexible, but not as generous as a bear or as thin as a wolf cultivator. Instead, he is somewhat similar to a tiger and leopard cultivator.

But this alien cultivator must have obviously been incarnate for more than a hundred years. He has no trace of hair-like features, and his speech is extremely clear. He even uses the self-identification of "someone", which has a bit of a Jianghu atmosphere.

"Six thousand!" A middle-aged monk wearing a black cloak directly raised the price by one thousand.

The foreign cultivator moved slightly and looked at the other bidder.

"Six thousand and five thousand." Another monk gritted his teeth and increased the price.

"Seven thousand five!" The black cloaked monk did not hesitate.

Seeing that the other party was determined to win, the other monk took the initiative to give up the increase in price and signaled that the other party would win.

The monk in the black cloak smiled with satisfaction and was about to speak when he saw the tough cultivator suddenly said: "Take away the ten thousand spirit stones, otherwise we won't sell them."

The black cloaked monk was furious. Even if he took it to the auction house to bid, he estimated that the price would be around 9,000. He didn't expect this guy to be so greedy.

But the Ourei Leopard cub was very agreeable to his liking. This time he came to the ghost market, hoping to buy one or two suitable spiritual beasts.

Although the Ourei Leopard is difficult to tame, it has the hidden thunder attribute, which is very rare.

Several elders in the family are getting older and want to retire, but their children and grandchildren are still at the advanced level of Qi refining and need some exotic beasts to accompany them in their practice, so that they can wander around the peak stage of Qi refining in the future and seek to go out to experience and seek to break through and advance to the realm. If you have a capable partner, this second-level exotic beast is the most suitable.

Seeing that there was no compromise in the other party's eyes, the monk in the black cloak hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth: "Okay, ten thousand is ten thousand, and this muscle cage will be included."

"Shuang Kuai, I also need three hundred spirit stones for this dragon silk cage. You are Kuang Kuai, and I am also upright, so I will give it to you."

Both sides were clean and tidy, which dazzled the people around them. A transaction of ten thousand spiritual stones was completed in just a cup of tea.

Chen Huaisheng had been observing the monk in the black cloak. The other monk traded spiritual sand, probably more than 300 spiritual sands. This payment was basically out of pocket.

When the black cloaked monk left, Chen Huaisheng motioned for Hu Delu to follow him.

The black cloaked monk kept wandering around the spirit beast area until he saw a nine-headed snake egg and stopped again.

The nine-headed snake is also a second-level ferocious beast with a yin and cold nature. Together with the ice-scaled blood python, it is also a second-level ferocious beast in the scale category.

However, exotic beasts like pythons are relatively easy to raise and difficult to cultivate. In other words, it is easier to tame than the Ourei leopard, but it is difficult to cultivate high-level spiritual beasts.

Unlike the Ourei Leopard, it's either success or death.

Like the ice-scaled blood pythons and winged fire snakes seen in the Battle of Tianzhai, if they are allowed to grow in the forbidden areas of the Absolute Territory, they may grow into second-level ferocious beasts, but if they are not tamed well, they will all become A first-order ferocious beast.

Therefore, it is rare for python-like beasts to be truly domesticated into second-level ferocious beasts.

After studying the nine-headed snake egg for a long time, the black cloaked monk gave up.

But in the end, he stopped in front of a baby snow dove.

The human-faced snow dove is also a second-level monster, which is much more powerful than the iron-beaked tit. It flies extremely fast and is extremely intelligent. Its meat is said to be a feathered Tang monk, which can prolong life.

It is said that his wisdom is equivalent to that of a ten-year-old child, and there is even a story of pecking the flesh of the Savior, and the flesh he pecked was his own flesh and blood.

Moreover, the human-faced snow dove is also the one with the most transformations into different forms among the feather species.

Chen Huaisheng estimated that this guy probably couldn't move, but the price the human-faced snow-dove asked for might be even more terrifying.

I'm afraid even the Ourei Leopard can't compare.

Looking around, everyone only dares to look at it and dare not ask the price. You know that this thing is not something that ordinary people can afford to tame.

The key point is that this thing has great intelligence, comparable to humans, which is too tempting.

The Buddha cut his flesh and fed it to the eagle, and the snow dove pecked the flesh of the Savior. This has always been a good story in the cultivation world. The human-faced snow dove basically does not appear outside the realm, and it is not known where this monk came from. Got this thing.

"Tsk tsk, couldn't someone give me a price?" The seller was a tall man with a beard. His age was indistinguishable, but his words had a Bashu accent.

"Brother, everyone knows this thing. It's hard to ask for a price. You can't afford it even if you ask for it. You shouldn't come to this Dongfu ghost market. You should go to Jiangling or Bianjing." Finally, the honest man told the truth. "If the offer is too low, I'll be embarrassed. If it's too high, I'll be short of money, so what's the use?"

"Yeah, this thing can't be taken away for less than 20,000 spirit stones, right?" Someone immediately agreed, and they were actually making a tentative offer.

"Twenty thousand? Can you afford it?" Someone immediately sneered, "Don't even think about it if it's less than twenty-two thousand. Brother, am I right?"
