A Purple-Gold Eagle egg was worth two or three thousand Spirit Stones, while an adult Purple-Gold Eagle was worth over fifty thousand.
This valuation was a little complicated. In fact, a Purple-Gold Eagle captured alive in the wild was worth only three or four thousand.
A tamed adult Purple-Gold Eagle was worth fifty thousand because it was equivalent to the combat power of an Emergence from Dust Adept.
But in truth, an ordinary Emergence from Dust Adept might not even be worth fifty thousand.
Take Yu Meiren, whom Feng Jun had killed. If that fellow had not possessed the Immortal-Binding Cord, he would not even have been worth five thousand.
Any force capable of raising a Purple-Gold Eagle would not mind spending a little extra. With an additional combatant and flying mount, fifty thousand was still well worth it.
The key issue was that raising a Purple-Gold Eagle from an egg worth two or three thousand to an adult worth fifty thousand took time—and during that period, its growth would consume a massive amount of Spirit Stones.

Ordinarily, he would not have spent more than fifteen thousand to save it. Even a dead Purple-Gold
