After the Illusion Spirit Jiao ascended to the Fourth Grade, its poison also beca Fourth-grade. However, without long-term nurturing, it is impossible to produce Fourth-grade poison.
Not to ntion the other energy attacks of the Illusion Spirit Jiao, currently none of them can be displayed.
This is similar to when Li Shiming ascended to the Nascent Soul Stage; without energy accumulation, one’s realm cannot exert combat power.
Provoked, the Illusion Spirit Jiao couldn’t help but beco angry, responding with a dragon’s roar in one direction.
Despite its anger, it did not lose its reason, choosing not to battle in its weakest state.
Based on the Illusion Spirit Jiao’s discovery, Li Shiming identified the spirit beast that emitted the soft chirp. The spirit beast was inside a volcano several hundred miles away.
The volcano constantly spewed magma, which carried a strong energy reaction, concealing the spirit beast within.
"Stop calling, stay here!" Li Shiming ordered the Illusion Spirit Jiao.
He then activated ’Boundless Horizon’, and with a flicker of his figure, he appeared at the mouth of the volcano.
On a protruding rock inside the volcano, a spirit beast, red like a small chick, proudly lifted its head.
"What a rich Phoenix Clan bloodline aura!" Li Shiming’s eyes lit up as he sensed the bloodline aura emanating from the small red chick.
Only being this close could he sense the bloodline aura within the small red chick.
Although the chick’s appearance was sowhat ugly, the rich Phoenix Clan bloodline aura indicated the small red chick’s future potential.
The chick was still in its youth yet already had such a rich Phoenix Clan bloodline aura. Li Shiming had no more ti to search for other phoenix-type spirit beasts, so this small red chick beca his target.
"Little chick, do you like this?" Li Shiming took out a Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill and waved it around in his hand, asking.
Upon hearing Li Shiming call it a little chick, anger flashed in its eyes, as if it had been greatly insulted.
However, after sensing the aura of the Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill, its anger was suppressed.
In its juvenile phase, its wisdom was not yet fully developed, and it judged likes and dislikes instinctively.
The aura from the Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill let it know that it was the most delicious food, tastier than anything it had eaten before.
Seeing the little chick with a look of wanting to eat but feeling lancholy, Li Shiming smiled slightly and placed the Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill at the volcano’s mouth, standing five ters away.
The little chick, without hesitation, flapped its small wings, moved to the Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill, and gobbled it up.
"Would you like to follow ? If you do, there will be a lot more of this to eat!" Li Shiming took out another Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill and said.
After tasting the Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill’s flavor, the chick’s resistance beca extrely low.
Although the Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill was only Third Grade, making a top-grade one was sothing that an Alchemy Master might be able to create only once or twice in their lifeti.
To wield a Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill in the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave Heaven, even among a thousand cultivators, it was rare, and few had as many as Li Shiming.
Yet, the chick’s pride restrained its greed for the Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill. It reluctantly looked at the pill in Li Shiming’s hand and turned to return to the volcano.
Seeing this, Li Shiming knew it couldn’t go on like this. If the chick left, he would have to leave the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave Heaven in another day, wasting his entry.
With that thought, he took out fragnts of the Red Gold Phoenix eggshell.
When he brought out these fragnts, the chick’s attitude changed dramatically, and it jumped to Li Shiming’s side.
If not for Li Shiming’s quick reaction in keeping the Red Gold Phoenix eggshell fragnts away, they might already have been pecked away by the chick.
"If you want this, sign a contract with . Not only will you get this, but also plenty of spirit pills!" Li Shiming, like a deceitful uncle tempting a child, held a piece of Red Gold Phoenix eggshell fragnt in one hand and five Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pills in the other.
The chick tilted its head as if pondering.
The special environnt of the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave Heaven ensured that all spirit beasts inside, unless attacked, would maintain a certain level of favor towards cultivators bearing the Ten Thousand Beast Sect’s Identity Jade Disc.
This was the main reason why Ten Thousand Beast Sect cultivators could find suitable Spiritual Pets in just ten days within the Ten Thousand Beasts Cave Heaven.
Otherwise, even immature spirit beasts were incredibly difficult to contract with.
In general, as long as you offered a spirit object impressive enough, you could sign a contract with a spirit beast.
If Li Shiming only presented the Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill, or just the Red Gold Phoenix eggshell fragnt, the chick wouldn’t consider signing a contract. However, the combination of these two major temptations made it hesitate.
Li Shiming maintained his smile. He had tried, but ’Telepathy’ could not influence the chick.
But through ’Telepathy’, he could convey his goodwill to the chick, simultaneously activating a Contract Pattern, just waiting for the chick to respond of its own volition.
To contract a spirit beast, unless it is in a spirit beast egg-like state, you can forcefully use a Contract Pattern to sign a contract. Even in a spirit beast egg state, so spirit beasts will have a will to resist.
With juvenile spirit beasts, you need to continually wear down their will until they willingly agree to the contract.
Never think of forcing it. Even for immature spirit beasts, their resistance to coercion is exceedingly intense, not only making contracting impossible but potentially driving the juvenile spirit beast to suicide.
However, juvenile spirit beasts are very easy to deceive; as long as you know what appeals to them, you can successfully contract them.
The key is finding what appeals to them, which requires an understanding of the spirit beast.
For instance, the Phoenix Clan’s Nascent Soul Cultivator had Li Shiming prepare a Third Grade Spiritual Beast Essence Enhancent Pill with an added spiritual dicine, specifically tailored to appeal to juvenile phoenix-type spirit beasts.
The chick hesitated for a mont, unable to resist temptation. It flew towards the Contract Pattern, allowing it to enter its body.
Li Shiming used a Contract Secret thod exclusive to the Phoenix Clan, perceiving the chick’s soul.
Contrary to his expectations, the chick’s soul was not as weak as he imagined; instead, it had a grand feel, though much of it was sealed.
Because the chick was too small, judging its species from its body was impossible, but Li Shiming knew he had stumbled upon sothing extraordinary.
"Tweet, tweet!" After signing the contract, the chick flew imdiately to his hand holding the Red Gold Phoenix eggshell fragnt, chirping constantly for it.
Understanding its request through the contract, Li Shiming knew it wanted to eat the Red Gold Phoenix eggshell fragnt.
Now that it was his Spiritual Pet, he wasn’t stingy.
He brought the Red Gold Phoenix eggshell fragnt to the chick’s beak, and the chick joyfully pecked at it.
"Crunch, crunch, crunch!" The Red Gold Phoenix eggshell fragnt in the chick’s mouth sounded as crisp as eating crackers.
After consuming the Red Gold Phoenix eggshell fragnt, the chick’s luster beca more vibrant.
It was evident that the chick had gained quite a bit.
At this mont, the Illusion Spirit Jiao arrived at Li Shiming’s side, despite being young.
Although the Illusion Spirit Jiao was already Fourth Grade, it had only hatched a few decades ago.
This short amount of ti for the Illusion Spirit Jiao type of spirit beast wasn’t even enough to pass the juvenile phase.
The Illusion Spirit Jiao, seeing the Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill, also got envious. Although the pill carried a phoenix-type aura, it was food specifically designed for Fourth Grade spirit beasts, whereas it had only eaten Third-grade Advanced Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pills before.
Seeing the top-grade quality of the Third Grade Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill, and given the competition for favoritism from another Spiritual Pet, it naturally wanted to compete as well.
Li Shiming found it amusing and sent a Third Grade Top Spiritual Beast Essence Boosting Pill into the Illusion Spirit Jiao’s mouth.
Upon sighting this, the chick let out dissatisfied ’tweet, tweet’ sounds, and the Illusion Spirit Jiao replied to the chick.
