Luring and Killing the Gold-Eating Beast

After gaining one spiritual item and news of another through a single trade, Zhou Yang could not have been more satisfied.

The news "True Person Heavenly Snake" Xu Hanwen had given him concerned a Tier 6 Gold-Eating Beast.

The Beast Taming Sect had always been famed for commanding all kinds of demonic beasts. Naturally, the information they collected on the distribution of various demonic beasts was far more detailed than that of other factions.

According to Xu Hanwen, a Tier 6 Gold-Eating Beast was concealed within a massive Gold Essence Mineral Vein in the Savage Jungle.

The Beast Taming Sect had once set its sights on that Gold-Eating Beast as well. Unfortunately, it was exceedingly cunning and refused to leave the underground mineral vein no matter what they did.

Within that underground mineral vein, where Gold Qi was dense, even a Late Nascent Soul Stage cultivator would find it difficult to capture this strange beast, which was innately proficient in the Gold Escape Technique.

By telling Zhou Yang about this Gold-Eating Beast, Xu Hanwen was in fact harming the Beast Taming Sect's interests.

But as a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, so long as he did not commit the grave crime of betraying his sect, no one in the Beast Taming Sect could judge him. Thus, he did not care about such matters.

After learning of the Gold-Eating Beast, Zhou Yang immediately began preparing for his journey to the Savage Jungle.

He spent three years gathering materials, then asked Daoist Lan to help refine a set of exotic formation tools, the Eight Gates Sealing Gold Formation, specifically meant to seal the Gold-Eating Beast's Gold Escape Technique.

Once the formation had been refined, he brought Daoist Lan to the Savage Jungle to search for the Gold-Eating Beast's hiding place.
