Goosebumps

This is outrageous!

Upon hearing Qi Zi·Fan's words, Qi Zixiao immediately pressed her teeth, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

But I can't show it, I even have to nod and agree... How infuriating!!!

"Fatty, do you understand?"

Qi Zi·Fan suddenly spoke up again.

"Huh? Understand what?"

Dan the Fatty looked completely bewildered.

"See that?"

Qi Zi·Fan looked at Qi Zixiao: "This is someone who reacts slowly; they're hopeless!"

"Let me ask you again, in crowded places, by taking this eye-catching, flamboyant Flying Boat, you avoid a lot of trouble."

"So, in the mountains and wilderness where there are many Spirit Beast and Ferocious Beast, what do you attract the attention of?"

"..."

"Still don't understand?"

"Are you so ostentatious and adorned with jewels that you're afraid you won't attract those Spirit Beast and Ferocious Beast?"

"Or do you think your life is too long, and you're afraid they won't be able to find you or attack you?"

"Even if they don't attack you, with your flamboyant appearance, who wouldn't spot you early on? If they see you from afar, they'll turn and run away. How are you supposed to catch Spirit Beast then?"

"Savor it yourself!"

Qi Zixiao blinked, then suddenly realized, "So that's how it is!"

but...

You can't show it.

She perfectly controlled her expression, trying her best not to show any abnormality. If this guy could tell that she only realized it now, wouldn't she be ridiculed severely?

Dan Chengzi, on the other hand, had no such concerns.

Suddenly, he slapped his forehead and realized what had happened.

"Oh! So that's how it is!"

"How foolish I was to not have considered these details! Your Highness's words have truly taught me more than a hundred years of study!!!"

The guy looked terrified and finally understood.

A crowded place?

Especially in places with many peers, how many people would dare to kill someone like me, one of the Ten Disciples of the Purple Mansion Holy Land?

There must be very few people!

Therefore, being high-profile and letting everyone know your identity can actually avoid a lot of minor troubles, such as people looking down on you.

While you could swagger and slap someone in the face in this situation, are you crazy? Who could feel good about being looked down upon or verbally humiliated by a nobody?

Dan the Fatty knew very well that he didn't have that kind of 'masochistic' tendency.

Therefore, there's nothing wrong with being flamboyant and high-profile.

But in the mountains and wilderness?

Hey!

For example, Ferocious Beast don't care what your identity is, even if you're covered in treasures and glowing everywhere.

Isn't this a guiding light?!

You'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't eat it!

Even tiny mosquitoes know to fly towards light, let alone Ferocious Beast and Spirit Beast.

Don't assume the wilderness of the cultivation world is safe.

Looking across the wilderness, who knows how many Ferocious Beast and Spirit Beast are hiding there?

Spirit Beast are somewhat better; at least they possess intelligence. But Ferocious Beast beasts only know how to kill; they act purely on instinct...

Such a glittering Flying Boat, once discovered, will surely be attacked!

"Your Highness, please wait a moment, I'll change to another ship..."

Dan Chengzi broke out in a cold sweat and immediately put away the Flying Boat he was standing on. Then, he switched to another one...

It is no longer adorned with jewels, but it is still a high-grade spiritual artifact-level Flying Boat, quite valuable, and most cultivators certainly cannot afford it.

"..."

"What a tycoon!"

Qi Zi·Fan muttered to himself, "I should have been even more extravagant before I created my avatar."

His muttering, though avoiding Dan Chengzi, did not escape Qi Zixiao. Upon hearing it, she immediately reached out her jade-like hand and pinched the soft flesh of Qi Zi·Fan's waist.

At the same time, she smiled and whispered, "You mean... it's because I'm too good at spending Spirit Stone?"

"Hiss!"

Qi Zi·Fan gasped, "Absolutely not!"

"Snort!"

Qi Zixiao was finally satisfied and let go.

However, this scene was witnessed by Dan Chengzi.

The fat man was dumbfounded!

What... what's going on?

His Highness's incarnation twisted His Highness's leg?

This... is a bit strange!

He was puzzled, but dared not say much. It was someone else's business, and he shouldn't interfere, could he?

Therefore, he focused his attention on his nose and his mind, and obediently steered the Flying Boat, speeding through the sky...

It wasn't until after leaving the Purple Mansion Holy Land that Dan Chengzi slowed down a bit and headed north.

"Going north?"

Qi Zi·Fan asked curiously, "What kind of Spirit Beast do you want to catch? Do you have a target?"

"There is indeed one..."

Dan Chengzi smiled shyly, "I think it suits me quite well, but its strength is a bit too great. I can't defeat it, so I ask Your Highness for help."

"Oh?"

Qi Zi·Fan and Qi Zixiao both became interested.

The former asked, "What kind of Spirit Beast is it?"

"... You'll know when you get to His Highness." Dan the Fatty kept everyone in suspense and refused to say anything.

The two women exchanged a glance and then fell silent.

Keep moving forward.

Half a day passed during this flight.

As the Flying Boat swept across a black swamp, both Qi Zi·Fan and Qi Zixiao showed expressions of disgust.

Black Water Swamp!!!

However, the problem is that the Flying Boat is gradually slowing down?!

Qi Zixiao's expression changed drastically, and she couldn't help but speak first, "Fatty, the Spirit Beast you want to catch, it wouldn't be..."

"To be honest, Your Highness."

Dan the Fatty smiled shyly and stopped keeping him in suspense, "It's the Ink Blood Toad."

"You..."

"This is absolutely outrageous!"

Qi Zixiao's face showed even greater disgust. "You actually made this Saintess catch such disgusting things for you?!"

"Cough!"

At this moment, Qi Zi·Fan coughed and said, "Actually, the Ink Blood Toad is not bad."

"As a mutated Spirit Beast, it evolved from a blood toad and possesses a unique Innate Divine Power..."

"It might come in very handy at a crucial moment!"

Qi Zixiao: "..."

A great use?!

That thing is completely designed to hurt yourself before hurting the enemy, okay?

Although I wasn't the one who experienced it, I saw it through the Sky Gazing Mirror. The Ink Blood Toad was clearly that stinking thing!

Catch that thing?!

Huh!!

Even just imagining it gave Qi Zixiao goosebumps all over her body, especially the thought of the real person actually grabbing her!

However... just as Qi Zixiao felt goosebumps all over his body, Qi Zi·Fan smiled slightly and said, "Fatty, I think your idea is very good!"

"I can help you."

He genuinely felt that Dan the Fatty's ideas were quite... unique.

What is the purpose of capturing Spirit Beast?

Generally speaking, these are used to assist in combat, enhance one's own combat power, or improve a certain aspect of ability.

For example, cultivators who are relatively slow often like to capture a Spirit Beast that is extremely fast to make up for their shortcomings.

Cultivators with insufficient defense and who are easily killed tend to capture Spirit Beast with strong defense, such as the 'Mystic Turtle' and the Stone Ape, to ensure that they are not easily killed.

Where is Dan the Fatty?

My cultivation talent isn't great, and I can only have one natal Spirit Beast. I can't just capture a Immortal Beast to make up for everything, can I?

He's bad at defense, bad at attack, bad at speed—basically, he's bad at everything.

It is only through various strange and unusual elixirs and "Cash Ability" that they can unleash strong combat power.

Thinking you can solve all these problems with a single Spirit Beast? That's extremely difficult, practically impossible.

So, what kind of Spirit Beast is most suitable for Dan Chengzi?

There must be Spirit Beast that is different from others and has special abilities!

The Ink Blood Toad is one of them...

At present, his cultivation level at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage is not weak at all. At least among the younger generation, he can still protect Dan Chengzi.

As long as those Peerless Genius capable of challenging opponents of higher levels don't appear, the Ink Blood Toad will basically survive, after all, it's only at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage.

After the Tribulation Transcendence Stage?

This guy's Innate Divine Power doesn't care whether you're undergoing tribulation or not!

Qi Zi·Fan did not know which level of cultivator the Ink Blood Toad's Innate Divine Power could render helpless, but at least, cultivators in the Great Ascension Stage would be affected.

Moreover, this guy's 'area attack' ability is simply unbeatable!

It can also directly target another person's Divine Sense.

The benefits are enormous!

For example, when going out to search for treasure and competing and exploring with many fellow cultivators, hey!

Ink Blood Toad unleashes its Innate Divine Power, who would dare to probe out with their Divine Sense?

They must have never been stabbed to death by stench before!

A warrior who dares to probe out his Divine Sense will immediately see stars, his brain will tremble, and he will almost fall head over heels!

That's how terrifying it is!

Can Innate Divine Power keep vomiting indefinitely?

Don't forget, Dan Chengzi is a master alchemist. When there's no competition, he can have the Ink Blood Toad unleash its Innate Divine Power to mass-produce Biochemical Pill...

Hehehe.

At that time, how many people will dare to approach Dan Chengzi?

Therefore, in Qi Zi·Fan's opinion, Dan Chengzi's choice was really correct, and the Ink Blood Toad was awesome!

The problem is, for Qi Zixiao, it's a completely different story.

Or rather, for any female cultivator, the Ink Blood Toad was no good thing...

Which female cultivator doesn't like to be clean?

The Ink Blood Toad is actually a toad, and it's incredibly ugly!

That's not all; he also stinks rotten, and his Innate Divine Power is so foul that it's unbearable. How could anyone possibly be interested in him?

After all, when women choose things, the first thing they consider is appearance.

Not good-looking?

It's even incredibly ugly?

Oh.

No matter how useful you are?

Absolutely not!!!

In fact, not only did Qi Zixiao not want it herself, but she also felt uncomfortable just thinking about Dan Chengzi's Spirit Beast being this Ink Blood Toad!

Just imagine it.

In the future, when you go out and about, for example, when a large group of geniuses gather, the ' Saintess Squad ' will be standing behind you.

Then, in a tense standoff...

Everyone released their Spirit Beast, ready to go all out.

Other prodigies, such as his rivals, all possessed majestic and imposing Spirit Beast with stunning appearances and considerable strength.

But on my side...

A toad croaked incessantly, occasionally spewing out an indescribable, irresistible stench...

Sky!

This scene is so awkward, and yet so suggestive!

Doesn't that mean even you yourself will be treated differently?

"..."

"I don't think so!" she said, Qi Zi·Fan a meaningful look.

However, Qi Zi·Fan looked completely innocent and said, "I think it's okay."
