"Rember, never force it, or you could easily burst and die!"
Watching the people distributing flesh being surrounded, Chen Jiuge shook his head slightly: "The Loose Cultivators of the True Realm are really nothing to boast about!"
Those who couldn't wait to rush in were almost all Loose Cultivators, truly embodying the principle of taking the benefits first and slacking off when things get dicey!
Although Chen Jiuge was sowhat displeased with this, he wasn't worried that the diligent Tribal Warriors would be at a disadvantage, as the ability to digest Demon God Flesh primarily depends on the physical body's strength.
Without sufficient body strength, no matter how high the cultivation, one would explode if they consud too much, just as Chen Jiuge had warned.
"Hehe, with such great stuff, even if I can't refine it, I shouldn't settle for just one piece!" a Loose Cultivator's eyes flashed with cunning.
"Gulp"
Swallowing the Demon God Flesh and feeling the slight swelling pain in his body, he forcibly consoled himself, "It's okay, it's okay, just hold on a bit longer, I'll spend more ti refining later!"
"You again, are you sure it's okay?" Aksu looked at the Loose Cultivator who had already collected the Demon God Flesh several tis, showing a hint of doubt.
Refining the Demon God Flesh primarily relies on physical strength, which is not difficult to discern. The Loose Cultivator in front of him only had a diocre physical body, yet the Demon God Flesh he had collected almost equaled that of a normal Silver Blade Warrior.
"The lord said, as long as you can refine it, you can keep receiving it. You wouldn't want to go against the lord's will, would you?"
"Of course not, here you go, eat up!" Aksu shook his head and said.
The Loose Cultivator looked at the ruddy Demon God Flesh and swallowed it with difficulty.
"Are you alright?" Aksu looked at the Loose Cultivator, whose face was flushed and body started to twitch unnaturally.
"I.... I... I......."
"Boom"
The powerful energy directly burst the Loose Cultivator, with warm blood splattering on everyone nearby.
Wiping the blood off his face, Aksu seed to have foreseen this outco, turning to the Loose Cultivators queued at the back, "Don't force it, the lord said if you feel you're at your limit, stop eating, or you'll explode!"
"Uh, I feel like I'm about at my limit, let's not waste resources. You guys go on, you go on!"
"Brother Chen, wait for , I'm about the sa, you go on, go on!"
Amidst a series of chaotic excuses, Aksu found that the queue of Loose Cultivators had almost vanished completely, leaving only a few hefty, muscular Body Refining Loose Cultivators, whose strong physiques were apparent at a glance.
"Why bother, how could the lord deceive you?"
While Aksu and the others were distributing Demon God Flesh, Chen Jiuge and his group planned to first block the Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts' advance, giving them enough ti for refining.
But shortly after leaving the station, Chen Jiuge found that all the Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts were gathered not far from the station without launching an attack.
"Strange, what does this an?" Bai Li asked curiously.
Song Bei speculated, "Is it possible they are waiting for orders?"
"Ha? Orders?" Feng Cang was a bit skeptical.
"Senior Song Bei is right, these Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts are different from the initial batch, they might be controlled and really awaiting orders!" Chen Jiuge agreed.
"So what do we do now? Wait it out? Or make the first move?" Bai Li said, rubbing his chin contemplatively.
"No rush, since they haven't acted, we don't need to provoke them. I do have an idea though!" Chen Jiuge shook his head.
"What idea?"
"No rush, let try sothing first."
"Xiao Ying, take over there!"
A dark figure separated from Chen Jiuge's back.
"Is this the Shadow Demon you've cultivated?" Bai Li asked with so envy.
Despite its average strength, the Shadow Demon excelled in concealnt and scouting abilities, especially with its ability to live in its master's shadow, greatly enhancing its value many tis over.
For Bai Li, at least, the Shadow Demon's usefulness was imnse.
For rare-bloodline Spiritual Beasts like the White Tiger Clan, the most loathso thing is inevitably outsiders snatching their cubs!
If every cub had a Shadow Demon with them, the situation would be much improved!
Facing weaker enemies, the Shadow Demon can handle it on its own. Against stronger ones, with its exceptional concealnt ability, it can retreat into the Shadow World. Unless Daluo is paying serious attention, they generally wouldn't notice it, making it the ideal Guardian in Bai Li's mind!
"Senior Bai Li, the Shadow Demon is not for sale. I do need so essentials at the bottom of the box, don't I?" Chen Jiuge knew what Bai Li was thinking, but selling the Shadow Demon was truly impossible. Its intelligence gathering ability and capacity to retreat into the Shadow World were just too crucial.
"Such a pity, but why summon it out now? This isn't the True Realm, could it still retreat into the shadows here?" Bai Li asked curiously.
Chen Jiuge smiled slightly, snapped his fingers, and Xiao Ying leaped, disappearing instantly from everyone's sight.
"It can really do it!" Bai Li's eyes burned even more passionately.
Chen Jiuge was also quite surprised. After discovering that these Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts hadn't launched an attack, he wondered if he could catch one, and use the Chaos Pearl's nurturing ability to see if the control over the Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts could be lifted.
With an indifferent mindset, he asked Xiao Ying, and to his surprise, Xiao Ying actually managed to retreat into the shadows in the Heavenly Gift Realm, which led Chen Jiuge to summon it out.
Hidden in the shadows, Xiao Ying carefully scrutinized the group of Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts in front of it, eventually locking its gaze on a smaller beast that resembled a Two-headed Dog.
The Two-headed Dog, sleeping soundly, was entirely unaware that its own shadow extended two hands, grabbing a quite unusual-looking chain, which was Chen Jiuge's Vajra Lock.
"Clang"
The sound of chains clinking made the Two-headed Dog open its eyes. Truth be told, if not for the proximity, the Two-headed Dog didn't want to bother.
"Roar?"
With a face full of astonishnt, the Two-headed Dog looked at the gray-white world around it. Despite being controlled, the Two-headed Dog still retained so self-awareness when its manipulator wasn't casting magic.
"Master!"
Erging from the shadows, Xiao Ying returned the Two-headed Dog and Vajra Lock to Chen Jiuge.
"Thank you for your hard work, go back and rest!"
"Yes!"
Although Xiao Ying could still traverse the Shadow World, it consud more energy than in the True Realm, as the laws of the Heavenly Gift Realm still had significant effects.
"Why capture this thing?" Bai Li asked puzzled, looking at the struggling Two-headed Dog.
"Bai Li, didn't you rember what the City Lord is most proficient at?" Song Bei reminded.
"I understand now, nurturing Spiritual Beasts. The City Lord wants to nurture this Two-headed Dog to see if it can be freed from its manipulator's control?" Feng Cang, for once, had an insightful idea.
"Exactly, if possible, the following situations might not be as perilous!" Chen Jiuge chuckled.
Chen Jiuge didn't believe that these Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts were peacefully coexisting out of mutual affection. It must have been due to the manipulator's forceful control, given there were herbivorous Fierce Beasts among them.
In this world, there's no peaceful coexistence between herbivorous and carnivorous Fierce Beasts!
"Let take a look first!"
Divine Thought imbued with the mysterious aura of the Chaos Pearl rushed into the Two-headed Dog's interior.
"What is this?"
A red cross was imprinted on the Two-headed Dog's heart. With each heartbeat, the cross appeared to breathe, storing a faint, almost imperceptible amount of Qi-Blood.
"Is this the thod for controlling the Fierce Beasts? But why do I have a bad feeling, like it's absorbing the Qi-Blood?"
Divine Thought only paused montarily at the heart before moving to other areas. After about ten breaths, a nurturing plan ford in Chen Jiuge's mind.
"How is it?"
"Nurturing isn't an issue; it's just that we might lack so Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures!" Chen Jiuge said with a frown.
The Fierce Beasts of the Heavenly Gift Realm naturally require the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures of the sa realm to nurture. Chen Jiuge lacked several since he hadn't spent much ti in the Heavenly Gift Realm.
This year he had been painstakingly collecting them, but he only understood the tip of the iceberg, so encountering this wasn't unusual.
"What's missing?"
"Golden Wood Horn, Golden Skin Stone."
"Wood attribute and tal attribute?"
"Yes."
"We naturally don't have these two, but can't we find other substitutes?"
"Other substitutes might have different dicinal properties, but, it seems we do have alternatives!" Chen Jiuge's eyes lit up.
"What substitutes?"
"Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots!"
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots, which snatch the fortune of heaven and earth, are far superior to the so-called Golden Wood Horn and Golden Skin Stone!
