It was not impossible for Lu Chuan to fork out 80,000 taels of silver. One Essence and Marrow Cleansing Pill was worth more than 100,000 taels of silver. Lu Chuan had two bottles in his hand, which amounted to a total of two million taels of silver.
But the problem was that this thing was not worth 80,000 yuan at all. It looked like it was not even worth 80 taels.
"A tail like this costs eighty thousand silver taels?”
Lu Chuan found it hard to believe that he was being treated like a fool.
This tail was as long as a finger and was black. It should be the tail of some kind of rat.
It emitted extremely weak spiritual energy fluctuations. Clearly, the owner of the tail should be a very weak spiritual beast.
If not for the little bootlicker barking, Lu Chuan would not even look at it.
"Don't underestimate it. This is the spoils of war I obtained from my battle with the sixth grade spirit beast, the Heavenly Mouse. In that battle, the sky turned dark and the sun and moon lost their light. In order to stop it from wreaking havoc in the world, I exhausted my entire life's cultivation to severely injure it. In the end, the Heavenly Mouse ran away, and I became like this because of the backlash of the secret technique. Young man, as long as you get this tail, I'll teach you a secret technique, and you'll be able to find the Heavenly Mouse that I severely injured. It was a sixth grade spirit beast, which was equivalent to a human's cultivation base of the Spirit Cultivation Stage. Even a single strand of its hair was a treasure.”
The old man shook his head and looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, as if he was reminiscing about the past and thinking about his best friends and confidantes who had fought side by side with him…What the hell!
"Bring disaster to the world? Old man, are you kidding me? Although the Heavenly Mouse was a sixth grade spirit beast, it had a gentle nature. It would hide underground and sleep for more than twenty hours every day.”
Lu Chuan pursed his lips." This is clearly the tail of a gray rat. With this little bit of spiritual energy left, I'm afraid you can't even defeat a house cat. The price is five hundred copper coins."
"Five hundred coins? Are you sending a beggar away?"
The old man was furious." Five hundred taels, not even a little less.”
The two of them traded back and forth, and in the end, the deal was made for two taels of silver.
The only value of this thing was the insignificant spiritual energy inside. Unfortunately, the amount was too little. Eating meat was not enough to fill the gaps between his teeth, and refining pills was a waste of time.
If the little bootlicker hadn't scratched him, Lu Chuan wouldn't have even looked at him.
"Eat first. I'll make you a big meal later!”
He placed the rat tail on his collar, and the little bootlicker immediately stuck its head out and bit it.
"As expected, what the little fellow wants is that bit of spiritual energy inside.”
Lu Chuan thought to himself. Then, he reached out and gently stroked the dog's head.
"Woo…"
Feeling the warmth of the big hand on its head, the little dog let out a comfortable cry. Then, it placed the remaining half of its tail on the back of Lu Chuan's hand.
"You eat it yourself. We have different breeds.”
Looking at the eager eyes of the little dog, Lu Chuan decisively cut off some of its thoughts.
The Myriad Treasure Tower was Blazing Snow City's largest trading center. The people who came here were either rich or noble, and there was no lack of powerful cultivators among them.
As soon as Lu Chuan walked through the door, a waiter immediately came up to him.
"Young master, what would you like to order? My Myriad Treasure Tower doesn't dare to say that we have everything we want, but as long as it's not available here, it's absolutely impossible to buy it anywhere else in Blazing Snow City.”
"Is there any beast milk here? Those who wanted spirit beasts, the stronger the spirit beast, the better.”
Lu Chuan didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.
"Beast milk? Yes, yes!"
Upon hearing Lu Chuan's words, a meaningful smile immediately appeared on the shop assistant's face.
Nowadays, there were many people with special hobbies. Not to mention animal milk, some elders even liked human milk and even raised a few nannies.
"Don't think too much. It's for it.”
Lu Chuan had seen all kinds of strange things in his previous life. He knew that the waiter was thinking the wrong thing from his expression.
He pulled the bootlicker out of his arms. After eating the rat tail, the little thing became much more energetic. Its black eyes looked around curiously.
"Eh, Chi Fengbiao? It was actually a cub. This was an extremely outstanding spirit beast.”
The shop assistant recognized the little bootlicker's signature red fur at a glance.
"Chi Fengbiao is the most suitable third-grade spirit beast for human cultivators to raise. It's smart, loyal, sensitive, and can endure beatings. Other than its weak combat strength, it's almost all its advantages. Moreover, Chi Fengbiao was especially handsome when he grew up and was very popular with some female cultivators.”
The shop assistant blinked. Young people understood.
"I just want to keep it alive…"
Lu Chuan looked at the shop assistant speechlessly. Did he need a bootlicker to attract female cultivators?
Needless to say, he really needed it!
"Chi Feng Biao isn't a picky eater, even his cubs can hunt on their own. As long as it contained spiritual energy, it could be used as food regardless of whether it was a spirit beast or a spirit herb. However, if he wanted it to grow quickly, it would be best to eat the flesh and blood of high-grade spirit beasts or spirit herbs.”
As the shop assistant spoke, he took out a book. On it were densely packed records of the grades, effects, and prices of various spirit beasts and spirit medicines.
"There's the flesh and inner core of a Fourth Grade Silver Moon Wolf here, which is especially suitable for Chi Feng Biao to eat. The price wasn't too expensive. Fifty low-grade spirit stones could buy a hundred catties of meat and an inner core. These were all preserved through special methods, and more than 50% of the spiritual energy inside was still retained. If he didn't have any spirit stones, it didn't matter. One million taels of silver could be exchanged for a low-grade spirit stone.”
The waiter's account was clear, but when it reached Lu Chuan's ears, he was shocked.
Fifty low-grade spirit stones? Fifty million taels of silver?
Was this a f * cking robbery?
Lu Chuan muttered to himself. After thinking about it, he realized that the price was not particularly expensive.
When cultivators were at the Body Tempering and Marrow Refining stages, they could still be considered powerful mortals. However, when they were able to condense spiritual energy in their bodies, they were already different from mortals.
Qi Condensation cultivators could kill Marrow Refining cultivators like dogs with a wave of their hands, and their lifespans had reached 200 years. Mortal wealth was no longer important.
After reaching the Soul Formation and Soul Refinement stages, they would completely abandon mortal matters and focus on cultivation.
With a lifespan of more than a thousand years, a Soul Formation cultivator could use a secret technique to protect his soul after his body decayed. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was an immortal.
Buying the flesh and blood of a Fourth Grade Spirit Beast cost fifty Lower Spiritual Stones. Naturally, he could earn fifty Lower Spiritual Stones by killing Fourth Grade Spirit Beasts.
"Oh right, I still have this."
Lu Chuan took out a jade bottle from his Sky Ring. This was the compensation the Su Family had given him. It contained ten Small Reversion Pills.
The Small Rejuvenation Pill was a medicinal pill that specialized in treating physical injuries. As long as one's limbs were not damaged, more than 90% of the injuries could be recovered.
"It's actually a small recovery pill. Young master seems to be no ordinary person.”
The waiter pulled out the stopper and smelled it, immediately distinguishing the type of pill.
Returning the jade bottle to Lu Chuan, the shop assistant said,""The Small Rejuvenation Pill is a level four pill. Its price is around 100 low grade spirit stones. Because this pill was quite precious, I suggest that Young Master auction it. Of course, if Young Master urgently needed spirit stones, Myriad Treasure Tower could also directly purchase them.”
