Yellow Wind Ox

Chapter 42: Yellow Wind Ox

"Since Fellow Daoist doesn't like this Two-headed Flame Tiger, then forget it. You'll definitely like this Iron Feather Eagle. It's a Rank 1 mid-tier Spirit Bird. After maturing, it becomes a Rank 2 wind-attribute Yao Beast. Its feathers are as hard as iron, it can not only release the Wind Blade Technique, but its flight speed is also extremely fast, comparable to a mid-grade flying Magic Tool. Its sharp claws can easily tear through the protective shields released by Qi Refining Stage cultivators. Seven hundred Spirit Stones." The attendant in green pointed to a giant blue eagle about ten feet in size and introduced it word by word.

After hearing the attendant's introduction, Shi Yue's face showed some emotion, but after a moment of thought, he still shook his head and refused.

He couldn't afford seven hundred Spirit Stones. Moreover, he had always used low-grade flying Magic Tools to travel. Now, suddenly having a Spirit Bird with a flight speed comparable to a mid-grade flying Magic Tool would make it difficult not to attract attention.

Seeing this, the attendant in green frowned. After a moment of thought, he spoke, "Fellow Daoist, what type of Spirit Beast are you looking to buy? Can you be more specific?"

"Large enough in size, doesn't eat much, and is cheap. Whether it can cast spells or not doesn't matter," Shi Yue said after thinking.

Upon hearing this, the attendant in green led Shi Yue to a large iron cage and pointed to a Yellow Wind Ox about ten feet in size inside. "This Rank 1 low-tier Yellow Wind Ox cannot cast spells, has a gentle temperament, thick skin and flesh, and feeds on miscellaneous grasses. It can be used to till Spirit Fields. It only costs three hundred Spirit Stones."

Hearing this, Shi Yue's eyes lit up. After a moment of thought, he said, "Three hundred Spirit Stones is too expensive. Can it be cheaper?"

"That won't do. The price of Spirit Beasts is set by the higher-ups. We have no authority to increase or decrease it," the attendant in green said, shaking his head.

"Alright! I'll take this Yellow Wind Ox." Shi Yue's expression was a little disappointed upon hearing this, but he still bought the Yellow Wind Ox.

"Does Fellow Daoist have a Spirit Beast Bag? If not, you might as well buy one from our shop. For a Spirit Beast of this size, a hundred-fold Spirit Beast Bag is probably the only one that can hold it," the attendant in green said enthusiastically.

"A hundred-fold Spirit Beast Bag? How many Spirit Stones each?" Shi Yue asked after a moment of contemplation.

His current Spirit Beast Bag was already filled with Spirit Devouring Bees, so he had to buy another Spirit Beast Bag to hold the newly purchased Spirit Beast.

"For any guest who buys a Spirit Beast from our shop, a hundred-fold Spirit Beast Bag costs eighty Spirit Stones. Hundred-fold Spirit Beast Bags on the market cost one hundred Spirit Stones. Will Fellow Daoist buy it here or outside?" the attendant in green asked with a smile.

"Alright! I'll take one." Shi Yue nodded, secretly admiring the business acumen of the Hundred Beasts Palace shopkeeper. With a difference of twenty Spirit Stones, anyone who wasn't an idiot would know to buy the Spirit Beast Bag at the Hundred Beasts Palace.

On the surface, they lost twenty Spirit Stones, but in reality, because the price of the Spirit Beast Bag was relatively cheap, many cultivators chose to buy Spirit Beasts at the Hundred Beasts Palace. The Hundred Beasts Palace not only didn't lose money but made a fortune.

The attendant in green nodded, took out a brand-new Spirit Beast Bag from his embrace, opened the iron cage, and aimed the bag's opening at the Yellow Wind Ox. He cast a spell on the Spirit Beast Bag, which then emitted a yellow glow that enveloped the Yellow Wind Ox.

The Yellow Wind Ox's body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye. After shrinking to a certain extent, it was drawn into the Spirit Beast Bag by the yellow glow.

"Fellow Daoist, the Yellow Wind Ox plus a brand-new hundred-fold Spirit Beast Bag totals three hundred and eighty Spirit Stones. Hmm, remember to plant a restriction on the Yellow Wind Ox after you go back. Although it's docile, it's safer to plant a restriction," the attendant in green suggested.

Shi Yue nodded, took out four mid-grade Spirit Stones from his storage bag, and handed them to the attendant in green, who returned twenty low-grade Spirit Stones to him.

After leaving the Hundred Beasts Palace, Shi Yue found that the sky had completely darkened, and all the shops had hung up lanterns for illumination.

Seeing this, Shi Yue decided to stay in the market for one night and return to the sect tomorrow, and also plant the restriction on the Yellow Wind Ox.

A quarter of an hour later, Shi Yue entered an inn called "Taixu Residence."

Taixu Residence was an inn opened by the Great Void Sect. As long as a disciple of the Great Void Sect presented their identity token, they could stay for free for three days. After three days, they would have to pay Spirit Stones.

Shi Yue showed his identity token to the innkeeper and was led to an empty room by a waiter.

Closing the door, Shi Yue sat cross-legged on the bed and took out the Heaven Controlling Bead.

After injecting Magical Power, Shi Yue entered the Palm Heaven Space.

He flipped his hand and took out a porcelain bowl and a dagger. He cut his arm with the dagger, and bright red blood dripped from his arm into the porcelain bowl, filling it halfway.

Shi Yue put away the dagger and began to chant a spell in a low voice.

A quarter of an hour later, the chanting stopped. He cast several spells on the blood in the porcelain bowl.

The blood in the porcelain bowl immediately floated into the air, churned, and transformed into dozens of blood-colored runes.

"Go." Shi Yue flicked his finger at the Yellow Wind Ox, and the dozens of blood-colored runes rushed towards it one after another.

The Yellow Wind Ox did not resist at all, allowing the dozens of blood-colored runes to drill into its head.

When the last blood-colored rune entered the Yellow Wind Ox's head, Shi Yue felt a connection form between himself and the Yellow Wind Ox.

"Come here." Shi Yue conveyed the command to the Yellow Wind Ox.

The Yellow Wind Ox moved its limbs and actually walked towards Shi Yue.

Shi Yue extended his right hand and gently stroked the Yellow Wind Ox's head.

The Yellow Wind Ox stuck out its scarlet tongue and licked Shi Yue's palm, appearing extremely affectionate.

Shi Yue's expression shifted, and he squatted down, seeing the caterpillar beneath the Yellow Wind Ox. Hmm, it's indeed much bigger than mine.

"Pee." Shi Yue commanded the Yellow Wind Ox.

The Yellow Wind Ox let out a "moo" but showed no signs of peeing.

"Hey, Shi kid, you don't actually think that if you order a Spirit Beast to do something, it will do it, do you?" Xiaoyaozi's voice suddenly rang out, filled with amusement.

"Isn't that how it works? I'm just asking it to pee, not to do anything else. Besides, its thing is so big, why isn't it peeing?" Shi Yue said with a frown.

"If I told you to pee, would you be able to pee whenever you wanted?" Xiaoyaozi said somewhat playfully.

Shi Yue hesitated for a moment after hearing this. He took out a hoe from his storage bag and dug a pit about four to five zhang wide in an open area.

He put away the hoe and began to chant. A large amount of blue light suddenly appeared, quickly condensing into a white cloud several zhang in size, hovering above the pit.

"Fall." Shi Yue's chanting stopped, and he cast a spell on the white cloud.

The white cloud churned and surged, and raindrops the size of beans began to pour down into the pit.

Soon, the pit was filled with water, turning into a small pond.

Seeing this, Shi Yue nodded in satisfaction. He retracted his spell, and the white cloud dispersed and vanished.

(Thank you all for your support with rewards! I bow!)
