Chapter 579 - 261: Ancient Treasure Beast, Breakthrough, Secret
"Some possess Great Divine Techniques concerning space and time at Tier One, some can regenerate from a single drop of blood, nearly immortal, and some can freely enter and exit the Nether Land, beyond the Five Elements."
"However."
"For thousands of years, such lucky individuals have been as rare as phoenix feathers on our continent. Tens of thousands of years ago, it is said that the Celestial Essence Sect encountered one such creature. Due to its extreme rarity, these beasts that mutate due to Exotic Stars are known as Treasure Beasts."
Fu Changsheng felt his heart stir.
His Cloud Ring Purple Immortal Tower held many spirit pets, yet none were like the Treasure Beast his fourth sister described. His gaze abruptly fell on the Wood Flying Squirrel perched on Ningning’s shoulder:
"Fourth sister, are you sure Ningning’s Wood Flying Squirrel is the Kunyuan Rat you mentioned?"
However you looked at it. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
The Wood Flying Squirrel did not resemble the Treasure Beast Fu Changli spoke of.
Ningning also shook her head and said:
"Fourth Aunt, I’ve raised Mumu for nearly ten years, but Mumu can only help plant spiritual flowers and herbs, without the special talents you mentioned."
"Chirp, chirp, chirp"
The Wood Flying Squirrel followed its owner with a few chirps.
Holding the Hundred Treasures Pouch even tighter.
Fu Changli said:
"Whether it is or isn’t, a test will reveal the truth. It’s said the blood of a Treasure Beast will turn silver when fused with the Thousand Jade Liquid."
As she spoke.
Fu Changli tapped her storage bag; a flash of Dawn Light appeared, and a bottle emerged. As she pointed at the bottle, the cap lifted, and a drop of Thousand Jade Liquid trickled out.
Fu Changli looked at Ningning.
Ningning hesitated:
"Mumu is afraid of pain and faints at the sight of blood."
"Then it’s easy."
Fu Changli smiled and flicked her forefinger; a drop of blood shot forth from her fingertip. The Wood Flying Squirrel saw the blood floating nearby and immediately fainted:
"Ningning, do you want to test?"
After all, the Wood Flying Squirrel belonged to Ningning.
Ningning hesitated for a moment, looking at Fu Changsheng.
Fu Changsheng nodded and said:
"Give it a try."
If it truly is a Treasure Beast.
It shouldn’t be allowed to wander freely; the clan’s resources should be devoted to nurturing it quickly into a High-Tier Treasure Beast, awakening its Divine Techniques and talents.
Ningning gently patted the Wood Flying Squirrel, gritted her teeth, and pricked its paw with a needle. The Wood Flying Squirrel yelped awake, and seeing the blood trickling from its paw, fainted again.
At this moment.
Among the three present.
Only Ningning cared whether the Wood Flying Squirrel was in pain.
Fu Changsheng and Fu Changli watched as the Thousand Jade Liquid and the Wood Flying Squirrel’s blood fused, lightly trembling, the red color fading away.
Then.
A hint of green appeared.
"Hmm?"
Fu Changli shook her head in disappointment:
"It seems this Wood Flying Squirrel is not a Kunyuan Rat, I made a mistake."
Fu Changsheng laughed with relief.
If it were truly a Treasure Beast, this continent would not have been without one for so many years; after all, Tier Two spirits would awaken Divine Techniques, unheard of.
Ningning unconsciously let out a sigh of relief as well.
She hoped the Wood Flying Squirrel was just an ordinary spirit beast; it had been her companion for ten years, and if deemed a Treasure Beast, it might no longer belong to her.
She didn’t want to part with Mumu.
A small interlude.
Fu Changsheng then said to Fu Changli:
"Fourth sister, Ningning is quite interested in Beast Taming Technique, I’d like you to guide her; she’s shy with strangers, but she’ll adapt over time."
Since Ningning wasn’t keen to interact with strangers.
Staying at the Star-Receiving Tower seemed most suitable.
Fu Changli laughed and said:
"That’s perfect, I’ve been feeling lonely at the Star-Receiving Tower myself."
Perhaps due to their mutual interest in beast taming.
Ningning wasn’t particularly resistant to Fu Changli.
Fu Changsheng gave Ningning a few words of advice:
"I am at the Main Peak Clan Master’s Mansion behind Demon-Defying City; if something comes up, just send me a message."
"Hmm."
Ningning was a bit forlorn as her father was about to leave.
However.
Before leaving.
Yu Qingru had repeatedly told her she couldn’t cling to her father, and reluctantly watched Fu Changsheng ride away on the Cyan Python.
After Fu Changsheng left.
Fu Changli called Ningning over, glanced at the Wood Flying Squirrel on Ningning’s shoulder, and said:
"Ningning, if you really like this Wood Flying Squirrel, then form a Spirit Beast Contract with it. With a bonded spirit beast, others will think twice before coveting it, benefiting both you and the Wood Flying Squirrel."
Chirp, chirp, chirp!
The Wood Flying Squirrel seemed to understand, tugging at Ningning’s sleeve, chirped again several times.
Almost separated from the Wood Flying Squirrel today, Ningning did not resist, after all, this was not the Yu Family’s territory, where people were fickle. She nodded slightly:
"Thank you, Fourth Aunt, for the advice."
"Hmm."
Fu Changli saw that Ningning was timid, yet not obstinate, and liked her even more. She gave detailed instructions on forming the Spirit Beast Contract. Finally, she asked:
"Ningning, what cultivation technique are you practicing now?"
"Water Ni Celestial Scripture."
Fu Changli slightly shook her head; this cultivation technique was the lowest Yellow Tier Sixth Grade, and earlier the Patriarch mentioned that Ningning’s talent might not be outstanding; if she continues with this technique, reaching the Peak of Qi Cultivation before sixty would be difficult.
Fu Changli hesitated a moment.
Tapped her storage bag.
A flash of Dawn Light.
Instantly a book floated over to Ningning:
"Ningning, this is the Ten Thousand Spirits Heart Control Scripture I practice, but it only covers the first four layers of the Qi Refining Stage. Take your time to comprehend it, and when you break through to Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer, come to me for the subsequent technique."
