A tender twenty-eight, and a Thunderous Beast

Cultivating immortality knows no time.

Su Bai lived a leisurely life in the Pill Shop, and more than three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Before he knew it, Su Bai had turned twenty-eight, already approaching the terrifying age of thirty!

"They say one should be established by thirty, but I'm still living in fear in the Cultivation World. I need to cultivate even harder," Su Bai thought to himself.

During these three months, in addition to cultivating and refining pills, Su Bai also attended two classes at the Starlight Academy Starlight Academy the title of Special Appointed Teacher.

Because of the renowned reputation of Master Su Baihe's disciples, all the disciples of the alchemy lineage attended every class.

Even Academy from other schools would come to join in the fun, especially the top Disciple with Talent. Disciple were highly Talent and competitive, always wanting to learn more.

Furthermore, as a cultivator, even without Alchemy Talent, one still needs to come into contact with Spirit Pills daily. Learning more knowledge will prevent one from being cheated when hiring someone to refine elixirs next time.

Therefore, even though Su Bai only attended two open classes, he gained a certain understanding of the top geniuses at the Starlight Academy.

One of the most recognized geniuses at the Starlight Academy, Disciple with Heavenly Spirit Root named Han Zhenyuan, was chosen by Su Bai as the next target for Copy.

Ordinary Single Spirit Root contain some impurities to varying degrees.

The Heavenly Spirit Root, on the other hand, is incomparably pure, without any impurities, and allows for faster cultivation than ordinary Single Spirit Root cultivation.

Therefore, Han Zhenyuan is only twenty-two years old this year, yet he has already reached the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

He was recognized as the strongest genius in the Starlight Academy in the last hundred years.

Han Zhenyuan was not from one of the Four Great Clans of Heavenly Star City, but from the Han Family, which was considered one of the lowest-ranking families in Heavenly Star City. It can be said that the Han Family rose to prominence thanks to Han Zhenyuan.

Four Great Clans have extended olive branches to Han Zhenyuan, but Han Zhenyuan has not accepted them for the time being.

Su Bai was not interested in Han Zhenyuan's personal relationships.

Su Bai was only interested in Han Zhenyuan's Spirit Root.

Those with the talent of Heavenly Spirit Root are among the very few in the entire Cultivation World.

I've come across one right now, and I absolutely must Copy it!

On the surface, he lectured with a dignified and respectful demeanor, but in reality, he had secretly selected several targets for Copy and invited them to the stage to cooperate with the alchemy experiments, subtly building rapport and laying a solid foundation for future physical contact during the Copy process...

Late February.

After changing his appearance, Su Bai returned to the Black Market to recharge the bounty notice with Spirit Stone, thus maintaining Profound Dome Bamboo's bounty.

The self-service Magic Array on the bulletin board shows that more than 10,000 people have carefully observed Su Bai's bounty notice.

However, none of them were able to find the Profound Dome Bamboo and contact Su Bai.

"Could the Profound Dome Bamboo have gone extinct?" Su Bai frowned slightly.

If that's the case, then this [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill] Pill Formula lose most of its efficacy.

The main ingredient essentially represents the core of a Pill Formula; finding a substitute for the main ingredient is tantamount to significantly altering the Pill Formula.

True Man He might be able to make significant modifications to the [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill], but that would take a considerable amount of time.

Currently, True Man He is focused on researching methods to advance to the Nascent Soul, Su Bai naturally cannot allow him to spend a few years improving his Minor Breakthrough Pill.

However, Su Bai's current alchemy skills are completely insufficient to alter this Pill Formula.

I felt slightly irritated.

Su Bai strolled around the Black Market.

"A top-grade Spirit Beast Thunderous Beast cub with the Bloodline of the High Antiquity Divine Beast Diting!"

"Simply spend Spirit Pills to nurture it into adulthood, and it will find a specific spiritual creature for you!"

"This beast, Ting'an, can not only find treasures but also appraise them. It's only 50,000 Spirit Stone! Don't miss it!" A stall owner wearing a white mask shouted loudly at one of the stalls.

Su Bai approached with considerable curiosity. "The Bloodline the High Antiquity Divine Beast Diting? Are you sure? Isn't Diting's main Divine Ability to distinguish the true from the false in all things in the world?"

"How did the Thunderous Beast spirit beast, which inherited his Bloodline, gain the ability to find treasure?"

The stall owner chuckled, "You don't understand, fellow Daoist. Besides distinguishing fakes, the Diting has another ability: Treasure Hearing! You only need to let it become familiar with an object, and it can use its Divine Ability abilities to hear the location of that object."

"And this Thunderous Beast, upon reaching adulthood, will most likely be able to comprehend this Divine Ability."

"It's a pity that this Divine Ability was so extreme, that the Thunder Wolf died on the spot after it was Divine Ability."

The stall owner spoke with conviction, and didn't seem to be lying.

Su Bai had also heard rumors about the Thunderous Beast, which was said to be a special Spirit Beast from the Southern Sea Cultivation World.

Cultivator nearby spoke up, "Ting'an is indeed good, but to bring this beast to adulthood in a short time, it would require at least tens of thousands of cultivation Spirit Pills. How could an ordinary Cultivator afford to raise such a beast to adulthood?"

"Those who have the means to raise this beast are probably not lacking in spiritual creatures."

"Don't even think about using high-level spiritual objects to let it find out. Even if Ting'an figured out the location of those high-level spiritual objects, do you have the ability to retrieve them?"

After saying this, he shook his head and left.

Several Cultivator who were initially interested shook their heads and left when they heard that it would cost so many Spirit Stone to bring him to adulthood.

The stall owner chuckled dryly, inwardly seething with hatred for the talkative Cultivator.

Just wait until this group of people leaves, then shout at the top of your lungs again, and you'll be able to catch one or two fat pigs.

"Why aren't you leaving yet?" The stall owner asked after waiting for a while and noticing that Su Bai was still standing in front of him.

Su Bai chuckled and pointed to the Thunderous Beast locked in its cage, "Sell it to me for 20,000 Spirit Stone."

The stall owner shook his head, exclaiming, "Impossible! Impossible!!"

Su Bai frowned slightly. "Thirty thousand Spirit Stone is the most I can offer. Don't force me to use any tricks."

The stall owner laughed, "This is the Black Market! What kind of tricks are you planning to pull?"

"Are you trying to scare me? I'm not easily frightened! Buy it or don't interfere with my business!"

Upon hearing this, Su Bai smiled faintly, "I have plenty of time. If you don't agree, whenever a guest approaches, I will repeat what that person said to them."

"In that case, you'll have to lower the price of this Thunder Wolf sooner or later, so you might as well sell it to me."

The stall owner's expression changed drastically beneath the mask. "You're despicable and shameless!"

Su Bai shrugged. "I was just telling the truth, how was that despicable?"

"Besides, 30,000 spirits isn't cheap."

"You must have been lucky enough to encounter this beast in the South Sea, getting 30,000 Spirit Stone for free. Isn't that great?"

The stall owner was silent for a moment. "Thirty-eight thousand Spirit Stone, not a penny less. I need Spirit Stone, I need them. If you don't agree, we can just wait it out. I don't believe there's no one else who will buy from me."

Su Bai patted his Storage Bag, and a mountain of Spirit Stone appeared in front of the stall owner's stall.

Su Bai reached out and picked up the cage, taking a closer look at the Thunderous Beast. Its fur was whitish, and it had a thin eyeshadow around its eyes, making it look like it was wearing glasses. It looked quite well-behaved.

"In that case, I'll be going now."

He covered it with a black cloth and disappeared into the Black Market in a few flashes.
