God of Pets-Chapter 572: Master Jia

When Ma Xiaolong woke up, he found himself lying on a bed in a room, struggling to get up but feeling severe soreness all over his body.

"Your poison has just been lifted, you need to rest for a while." Chen Guan said, sitting at a table nearby, his back facing Ma Xiaolong.

"Thank you, master, if it weren't for you, I would've died at the hands of those bastards. In the future, if there's anything you need, just say the word, and I, Ma Xiaolong, will not flinch even in fire or water." Ma Xiaolong said.

"Focus on recovering your body first." Chen Guan got up, poured a glass of water, handed it to Ma Xiaolong, and reassured him to rest here, as he had already paid for the room rental.

Not staying here longer, Chen Guan said a few words and left.

He directly teleported away from the Ice City's teleportation array, departing from the Extreme Profound Great Primordial Grotto Heaven. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

The Unsolvable Poison from the Ten Thousand Poison Insect Emperor turned out to be even more potent than Chen Guan had imagined. Ma Xiaolong, at least a Five Sense cultivator, got scratched by a flying saber infused with Unsolvable Poison, and soon fell.

For Chen Guan, this was naturally a good thing; the toxic nature of the Unsolvable Poison can only be neutralized by the Ten Thousand Poison True Solution, making it a truly lethal weapon.

However, the Unsolvable Poison only works upon contact with blood. Chen Guan really wanted to infuse his fist with Unsolvable Poison and use the Disabling Fist to make it truly an unsolvable move.

Currently, poison can only be applied to weapons, using the blade to break through the Secret Spirit's defense and let the Unsolvable Poison take effect.

Chen Guan's current opponents are mostly of the Sixth Sense level. It's quite challenging for ordinary weapons to break through the Secret Spirit's defense of a Sixth Sense level.

"When I get my hands on the Three Treasures of Xia and infuse the Mountain-Opening Axe with Unsolvable Poison, its effect in killing Secret Spirits will definitely be outstanding." Chen Guan mused in his heart.

Chen Guan searched for information, analyzing which Composite Skill body techniques were suitable for him and were feasible to acquire.

There are indeed many powerful body techniques, and many renowned ones. Each of the Ten Great Families has their own unique body technique Composite Secret Skill.

But these are all family secrets, and Chen Guan has no way of acquiring them.

Those famous body technique grandmasters aren't people who casually impart their skills.

Even the powerful body techniques publicly available often contain ingredients that are hard to come by, so knowing the recipe doesn't mean much.

After researching thoroughly, Chen Guan found that there weren't many places he could acquire Body Technique Secret Skills, and the place with the biggest opportunity was with a famous Secret Skill Master, "Master Jia".

However, Master Jia's reputation isn't particularly good, not due to his surname Jia, but because Master Jia is a master who is excessively money-minded.

As long as you're willing to pay, he can teach you any kind of secret skill.

Body techniques, swordsmanship, fist techniques, spear techniques—any Composite Secret Skill type you can think of, he can teach.

But the techniques he teaches, to put it mildly, are somewhat imprecise.

They certainly have effects, but the recipes contain quite a few filler secret skills, meaning his Composite Secret Skills are generally bloated and don't achieve top-tier effectiveness.

They can be used, but might consume a lot of Primordial Energy, require a lot of time to train numerous secret skills, have long pre-casting times, or possess certain flaws.

So Master Jia is truly a love-hate figure; people love that they can customize any secret skill they want by paying, but they hate that these skills often don't feel perfect.

Chen Guan doesn't mind, as long as they achieve his desired effect. As for bloatedness, that's not an issue for Chen Guan.

He has plenty of Primordial Energy and practices secret skills faster than others.

Chen Guan traveled day and night, and upon arriving at Master Jia's residence, he saw that it was indeed bustling with people coming and going, many coming to customize secret skills.

Moreover, Master Jia had many disciples, including wealthy disciples lacking family foundations who couldn't obtain quality Composite Secret Skills.

There were also some without money but could work for Master Jia.

When Chen Guan arrived, all the queue tickets for today were already distributed, leaving no chance to queue.

"Hey, do we have any VIP queue tickets here?" Chen Guan asked a disciple responsible for maintaining order.

"Yes, the bronze and silver VIP queue tickets are all distributed; only one supreme gold VIP ticket is left, at a thousand dollars apiece. Do you want it?" said the disciple.

"How long would the wait be?" Chen Guan asked.

"The supreme gold VIP queue ticket has a separate queue and is personally attended by our master; there are two people ahead." The disciple replied.

"I'll take it." Chen Guan didn't waste words and directly bought the supreme gold VIP ticket with a thousand dollars.

Though a thousand dollars only buy a meeting opportunity, customizing the secret skill requires additional payment, but Chen Guan's time is naturally worth more than a thousand dollars, so skipping the wait is best.

Moreover, Chen Guan just learned that the ordinary ten-dollar queue ticket doesn't even grant an audience with Master Jia himself, but rather his disciples handle the reception.

Visitors would state their needs, and the disciples would record them, then Master Jia would select a self-created secret skill for that person, never meeting Master Jia himself.

Who knows if it's even Master Jia selecting? Who can say?

The self-created secret skills sold aren't unique either, possibly having been purchased by others before.

Want to customize unique secret skills? That's a different price altogether.

Looking at the long queue of cultivators, Chen Guan was led into a separate room to wait.

No need to queue here; he could sit on the sofa waiting for the disciple to take him inside, with snacks and drinks prepared on the side table.

"Money does make a difference." Chen Guan couldn't help but admire.

Though there weren't many people here, except for those in the master's room, there was only one person ahead, but it still took a while for Chen Guan's turn.

Chen Guan was led into the room, seeing Master Jia with crane-like hair and a youthful face, a demeanor befitting the image of an immortal sage, truly fitting the master style.

"Young friend, what kind of secret skill do you need?" Master Jia asked warmly, his manner exceedingly pleasant.

"I want to customize a unique secret skill." Chen Guan understood why Master Jia was so courteous, as money brings service.

Those who could buy the supreme gold VIP ticket would certainly spend big on secret skills, and Master Jia naturally needed to provide some service for such patrons.

Master Jia's eyes lit up at the mention of customizing unique secret skills; according to his pricing standards, it starts at five figures, varying depending on customization requirements, and some costly secret skills can demand prices over ten thousand.

"Tell me your requirements." Master Jia's smile grew more genial and amiable.

"I want a body technique secret skill, and it needs to be fast, extremely fast, while also flexible, highly agile." Chen Guan said.
