Beast Taming: Sharing Pets' Abilities-Chapter 444 - 443: A Bountiful Harvest

In this world, there are millions of beings who tread the path of cultivation, seeking the way to immortality, among whom some are breathtakingly gifted and extraordinary.

Some progress rapidly, advancing with great courage, while others proceed steadily, taking each step firmly.

There are also those with astonishing enlightenment, able to master ordinary magical divine techniques upon first learning, instantly grasping what others cannot understand their entire lives, comprehending Daoist scriptures upon a single realization.

But even so, how many ultimately achieve their desires and attain immortality?

"The old ghost of Youhai only succeeded halfway; his divine soul still lives and has already birthed a trace of innate vigor, yet his body has transformed into a sinister corpse. The remaining step is the transformation of the divine soul and its integration with the body. In doing so, he could become a different kind of everlasting corpse demon."

Zhong Tian said softly, "Yet how difficult is this step. Youhai old demon’s body is filled with corpse qi and death qi, while the divine soul is purest. Once it is tainted by corpse qi and death qi, it will be polluted, affecting consciousness. To take this step is not much simpler than breaking through the Yang Spirit realm."

"Indeed..."

Gu Yuan nodded as well.

Do you not see, with figures like the Danxia Ancestor and Zhuque Divine Sovereign, two great powers of Yang Spirit, along with the Gu God Sect, Star River Sword Sect, and even the Observatory Master of Taixu Temple, among the ancestors and supreme elders of these influences, which one is not astonishing and exceptional?

Any one of them could be seen as a living legendary history book, yet how many among them dare to be sure of achieving the Dao and immortality?!

Even a different kind of immortality is by no means easy.

If even these great Yang Spirit powers are like this, much less the mere Youhai Ancestor?

After all, three thousand years ago, when Youhai Ancestor reached the end of his lifespan, he was merely a Yin God Giant.

Attempting to achieve a different kind of immortality with a Yin Spirit’s body, its difficulty is evidently not simple.

At this moment, Zhong Tian handed the dark gold corpse pill to Gu Yuan:

"This item is condensed from the essence of Youhai old demon’s lifetime of cultivation. Fellow Daoist can keep it; it can be used to refine magical treasures or spirit pills."

Gu Yuan took it in hand, stroking the smooth and heavy, hard yet cold corpse pill, tossing it up and down:

"Corpse Pill..."

Naturally, Gu Yuan was not unfamiliar with corpse pills, whether from the corpse demon’s corpse pill or the white bone relic of the bone gnawer. Essentially, they are the same thing as the corpse pill in his hand.

The difference is that the corpse pill in Gu Yuan’s hand now is the essence condensed from a Yin God Giant’s lifetime of cultivation and is a rare treasure!

If Gu Yuan were to refine it, he could use it as a base to carry his divine fragment in the spirit pearl.

He could also refine it into a magical treasure, perhaps even into a top-level magical treasure in the future.

Gu Yuan shook his head and tossed the corpse pill back to Zhong Tian: "This item is indeed good for me, but the corpse pill is more useful to you, Fellow Daoist Zhong, so you should keep it."

Gu Yuan was not unaware, nor overly stingy.

Although initially Zhong Tian stated, he just wanted Gu Yuan’s help, and all other rewards belonged to Gu Yuan.

Zhong Tian truly acted this way, and for Gu Yuan, the corpse pill condensed by Youhai Demon is merely a spirit pearl, useful for refining magical treasures or other functions.

But for Zhong Tian, it is much more important.

Because Zhong Tian is also a corpse cultivator now, merely refining this corpse pill could greatly increase his cultivation, and the trace of innate vigor within could allow Zhong Tian to be reborn, advance significantly along the path of Yellow Springs Demon Corpse, saving a thousand years of effort.

Even so, Zhong Tian remained untouched, throwing this item to Gu Yuan without hesitation.

The mere mind and the integrity of speaking reliability in the face of treasures left Gu Yuan quite appreciative.

If it were him, he might not have been able to achieve this.

For such a character, if nothing unexpected happens, their future achievements are boundlessly bright.

After all, this Zhong Tian, when alive, was a rare First Grade Pill Golden Core Great Cultivator.

Now, although dead, he’s transformed into a rare Yellow Springs Demon Corpse.

Just need to follow through step by step, and sooner or later he will become a corpse immortal at the Primordial Spirit True Immortal Level.

For such a character, Gu Yuan has thoughts of forming a good relationship. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

A mere corpse pill, more or less makes little difference to Gu Yuan, but a Daoist friend with boundless potential, in crucial moments, can indeed be of great help.

Especially Zhong Tian, such a person who keeps his words and speaks reliably should definitely be befriended.

What, you say Zhong Tian is not human but a Yellow Springs Demon Corpse, a demon?

These days, some people’s hearts are often filthier than those of malicious spirits.

Compared to them, Zhong Tian is far better than many living people.

Zhong Tian took the corpse pill in hand, gazed at Gu Yuan momentarily, understanding his meaning, then directly stored the corpse pill, nodding, and said: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Gu, if you have anything in the future, feel free to instruct me."

"Fellow Daoist Zhong speaks well, we indeed share a bond, from now on, we should support each other."

Gu Yuan said meaningfully.

Zhong Tian nodded, saying no more.

With Youhai old demon already dead, the two directly entered his tomb next, naturally beginning to loot.

As for Old Man Hu and the other three, they wisely kept their distance, merely watching from afar.

Soon, after Gu Yuan and Zhong Tian scoured the place, they acquired some good items.

The other items weren’t remarkable, though quite precious, but the wealthy Gu Yuan didn’t mind.

Only among them, two treasures made Gu Yuan take a few more glances.

One of them was a small iron-gray cauldron, about the size of a human head, its surface covered with mysterious patterns, exuding a pale, dark, silent, ominous aura.

Moreover, its grade was high, surprisingly an upper-grade magical treasure!

Accurately speaking, it was a magical treasure, exclusive for demon cultivators.

Regular Immortal Dao cultivators who contact this item excessively may pollute body cultivation, affecting their foundation.

Thus, it was quite a sinister magic treasure.

This item was unmistakable to both Gu Yuan and Zhong Tian. The iron cauldron was clearly the life-bound magic treasure of the Youhai old demon!

As for the other item, it was a book with "Corpse Scripture" written in true magic script on the cover, eerie and profoundly demonic.

Even its material was quite smooth, with a faint yellow glow, distinctly a type of leather.

Unfortunately, the last few pages of the magical scripture were torn away, leaving only the upper, middle, and lower sections, missing the most essence Primordial Spirit section.

Yet, even so, the book was rare Celestial Tier peak quality and highly significant for Zhong Tian.
