You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?-Chapter 399 - 21. Primordial Spirit!

Myriad Beasts Hall was also located in a rather important position within the Ancestor Hall, protected by layers of forbidden skills.

Without a sufficiently high status, even approaching the Myriad Beasts Hall would be difficult.

Of course, Lin Yue, being the direct disciple of the Main Hall Master, possessed such a high status that he could enter and exit almost any place within the Ancestor Hall at will.

"I greet you, Senior Uncle."

Just as Lin Yue arrived at the door of the Myriad Beasts Hall, an elder of the Myriad Beasts Hall approached and respectfully saluted.

Even the Ancient Hall Master, the highest-ranking among all the Hall Masters of the Ancestor Hall, had to respectfully address him as Senior Brother. Naturally, these elders at the level of Great Cultivators all had to call him Senior Uncle.

"Take me to the place where the Exotic Beast Essences are stored," Lin Yue instructed.

"Yes," the elder of the Myriad Beasts Hall immediately led the way, respectfully saying, "This way, Senior Uncle."

Before long, they arrived in front of a rather spacious secret warehouse, and after verifying his identity with the gatekeeping elder, they opened the door to the secret warehouse.

As soon as the door to the secret warehouse opened, the various auras of exotic beast essences wafted forth.

On rows of ancient sandalwood racks, neatly arranged jade bottles containing Exotic Beast Essences could be seen.

The elder of the Myriad Beasts Hall asked, "What grade of Exotic Beast Essences does Senior Uncle need? As the direct disciple of the Main Hall Master, you can receive five portions of Exotic Beast King Essences each year, or high-level Exotic Beast Essences..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Yue produced a token with a flip of his hand and said, "My master said I could use the essences freely, as long as I don’t take them out."

The elder of the Myriad Beasts Hall was momentarily stunned, and after confirming it was indeed the Martial Divine Token from the Main Hall Master, he hastily and respectfully said, "Yes, then feel free, I will leave now."

Lin Yue nodded slightly.

After the elder of the Myriad Beasts Hall departed, with a wave of Lin Yue’s hand, Phoenix Crown Qing intuitively landed on the back of his hand.

"Little Qing," Lin Yue gently tapped its head and smiled, saying, "Pick out whatever essences you want to eat, I’ll open them for you, eat until you can’t eat anymore."

Phoenix Crown Qing happily nuzzled his fingertips before fluttering its wings to search.

Only beasts comparable to cultivators of the Five Elements Heavenly Barrier would produce essences.

Essences, in essence, were the solid manifestations of the purest life force.

Not only Phoenix Crown Qing, but exotic beasts also devoured essences, and Phoenix Crown Qing only consumed the purest essences.

"I wonder how much it can eat..."

Watching Phoenix Crown Qing joyfully absorb stream after stream of essence, Lin Yue couldn’t help but mutter to himself.

He had tried before, and even after Phoenix Crown Qing broke free from the constraints of Beiyuan Mountain, although it regained its mystical nature, it was still the weakest level, with an aura similar to a cultivator of the Five Elements Heavenly Barrier.

A full hour later,

After voraciously devouring the essences in over twenty jade bottles, Phoenix Crown Qing finally stopped.

The essences in these more than twenty jade bottles all came from beasts at the Four Symbols level.

"You can eat that much?" freēwēbnovel.com

Lin Yue stared in astonishment at Phoenix Crown Qing, who had flown back to rest on his shoulder. It had become somewhat round and wobbly in the air, seemingly stuffed to the brim.

This was only the Five Elements level, and it could consume so much?

Phoenix Crown Qing let out a satisfied burp, lazily resting on his shoulder, not wanting to move.

"I suggest you better evolve to the Four Symbols level this time, you can’t tell me you ate so much and still can’t transform," Lin Yue couldn’t help but tap its head.

Phoenix Crown Qing rubbed against him, feeling slightly wronged.

Lin Yue felt a little troubled.

Phoenix Crown Qing hadn’t even evolved to the Four Symbols level, yet it had to consume so many Four Symbols level essences.

If it wants to evolve to the Holy Beast level in the future, will it need to devour that many Holy Beast Essences as well?

Who could afford that?

"Eat, eat, with so many essences, eat as much as you want, don’t let me down." Lin Yue shook his head helplessly, then left the Myriad Beasts Hall.

...

After leaving the Myriad Beasts Hall, Lin Yue also went to challenge the Ninth Layer Heaven trials of the Ancestor Hall.

He effortlessly reached the Sixth Layer Heaven, but was forced to use Chaos Reopening to succeed in the Seventh Layer Heaven.

"One hundred and ten thousand big merits acquired."

Lin Yue displayed a hint of a smile.

The last time he came to challenge these Ninth Layer Heaven trials, he only got to the Fourth Layer Heaven, and the Fourth Layer Heaven only rewarded him with one thousand big merits.

Now he had already broken through the Three Talents Heaven Barrier and had created this Heavenly Reversal Technique, Chaos Reopening, earning a total of one hundred and ten thousand big merits. The treasures he could exchange for had also increased significantly.

Moreover, as a direct disciple of the Main Hall Master, many treasures were available to him at half the cost, and some cultivation sites were unreservedly open to him.

"The Enlightenment Heaven Pavilion, which helps in forming the prototype of the Dao, costs eight thousand big merits per session. For me, it’s four thousand big merits..."

"And the Pure Heart Hall for tempering the Dao Heart Will costs five thousand big merits per session, which means I need two thousand five hundred big merits..."

"Spirit pills and Heaven and Earth Treasures are already provided to me free of charge, so there’s no need to waste big merits on them."

Lin Yue planned his use of the one hundred and ten thousand big merits in his mind, while his feet carried him toward the exit of the Ancestor Hall, preparing to return to his Prince Mansion.

As he reached the main gate of the Ancestor Hall, however, he noticed a familiar figure standing at the entrance, causing him to pause slightly.

Her white hair was like snow, her expression indifferent, she was none other than Xiao Surong, whom he had seen not too long ago.

"Junior Sister?"

Lin Yue smiled and said, "It’s rare to see you come out. Who are you waiting for?"

Xiao Surong looked at him and said, "You."

"Me?" Lin Yue asked in confusion.

"Here," Xiao Surong handed him a jade pendant.

Lin Yue examined the jade pendant. It didn’t seem special and he asked, puzzled, "What’s it for?"

"Just keep it with you," Xiao Surong said, "You can store it in a storage space as well."
