Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 1373 - 562: Yin Huai Ghost Spirit Tree! News of Jiao Ji!
Previously on Beast Taming: the More the Better...
Jiao Ji’s avatar alone was enough to prove this.
However, this also made Su Ping somewhat surprised. Just how did the Flame Venerable defeat the Water Venerable back then?
How had he completely expelled him from Jiuzhou?
Nevertheless, this exactly proved that he really needed to help Jiao Ji.
By helping her completely sever her connection and restraints to the Water Venerable, he would consequently weaken the Water Venerable’s power.
In the future, when facing the potential recurrence of the battle between water and fire, this would also be helping himself!
Thinking of this, Su Ping fell into deep thought. After pondering for a moment, he said, "The problem is not hard to solve, but it requires certain resources. I remember you mentioned before, Senior, that you have to figure out a way to cover all your own expenses, right?"
Jiao Ji nodded.
Su Ping also nodded. "Since that’s the case, first, we need one Spirit Saint Level Soul Crystal. As for the rest, the more Emperor Level and Monarch Level Soul Crystals, the better. Secondly, we need about 100 milliliters of Spirit Saint Level Taiyin Water, as well as the assistance of a Yin Huai Ghost Spirit Tree with Holy Spirit Level Species Potential!"
He really wasn’t asking for an exorbitant price.
It was an absolutely fair quote.
How could shaping a Soul Origin be that easy?
Su Ping could even guarantee that on the current Blue Star, aside from Charles, absolutely no one could accomplish this step like he could.
He was even confident that he could do a better job than Charles.
If it were creating a Soul Origin for a newborn life, like that Sea King Yasha’s Arm or the Paperman, Su Ping would at most expend some soul power.
Or he could achieve it with at most one Monarch Level Soul Crystal.
However, this was a soul that had reached the Legendary Level. It was a soul without an origin, yet it genuinely grasped Legendary Level Rule Power. Under such circumstances, how hard would it be to force a Soul Origin into it?
This list of resources was already the result of Su Ping being as economical as possible.
Therefore, facing Jiao Ji’s questioning gaze, Su Ping didn’t evade it in the slightest.
He directly said, "You need to figure out a way to get these resources, especially the Soul Crystals and the Taiyin Water. As for the Spirit Saint Level Pet Beast, the Yin Huai Ghost Spirit Tree, I have a bit of a solution! Here in my Forest Heart, there is a Blood Bone Skeleton Locust. Although it is currently only at the Monarch Peak, it has Emperor Level racial potential. At the same time, it is the Lower Pet Beast of the Yin Huai Ghost Spirit Tree. As long as it completes one evolution, it can advance into a Yin Huai Ghost Spirit Tree!
"Of course, I know you are skeptical, Senior. First of all, a Soul Crystal actually contains a lot of Soul Origin, but that Soul Origin doesn’t belong to you.
"However, after I collect it, I can remold it with my techniques to create a small core for your Soul Origin to be born.
"With this core, you and the Water Venerable will truly no longer belong to the same living being.
"However, your power comes from the Water Venerable’s main body. Once you integrate your own memories and wisdom into this Soul Origin, the imprints based on the Water Venerable’s original power will also leave you.
"Therefore, the Taiyin Water is needed. It will lock the Water Element Skills and prevent the imprints of power on your soul from departing, helping to stabilize your current Level Realm as much as possible. Moreover, as a resource in the form of water, it perfectly matches your condition.
"Of course, according to my speculation, even with this, a portion of it will still slip away. Unless there is a massive amount of Taiyin Water, maintaining your strength at the Legendary Level would already be a good outcome.
"As for the final piece, the Yin Huai Bone Spirit Tree—this Pet Beast has a special Super Rank Race Skill called ’Soul Compression’. Originally, this skill was meant for offensive attacks.
"However, even when using my special method to manufacture it, a large number of Soul Crystals will still produce some issues, resulting in many impurities within the origin and soul power.
"This method can be used to extract and forge them."
In fact, the Yin Huai Ghost Spirit Tree was purely something Su Ping added on. He had another method to forge this soul power.
That was to go to the Heavenly Tomb and use the Soul Furnace.
However, first of all, the Soul Furnace usually had Level Realm restrictions. Although he controlled the Bone Throne and could force her entry, if Jiao Ji used her power inside, there was a possibility she could forcefully shatter the Soul Furnace.
Su Ping couldn’t gamble with that.
Secondly, Su Ping had to collect a little benefit for himself, didn’t he?
Sure enough, upon hearing Su Ping’s explanation, Jiao Ji stopped voicing any doubts. She even directly patted her chest and said, "Since that’s the case, Su Ping, tell me the resources needed to evolve the Yin Huai Ghost Spirit Tree, and I will resolve them for you all at once!"
This promise was exactly what Su Ping wanted.
After returning recently, he hadn’t needed to go around inspecting anything.
He only needed to consult Feifei. Through the big data Feifei used to monitor the entire Heart of Myriad Spirits, he could see the work performance of all the little guys.
Among them, the one with the best performance in the Forest Heart was actually the Blood Bone Skeleton Locust!
That’s right.
Although it sounded unbelievable, Feifei’s data proved that last month—throughout November and the latter half of October—it was actually the Blood Bone Skeleton Locust that had earned the most money.
A full several million.
The way it earned it was very simple. In fact, it was now the premier "big star" of the Heart of Myriad Spirits.
In truth, this damn thing had zero commercial value. Unlike fruit trees such as the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile, it didn’t produce any resources. Aside from fighting, it belonged to the category of Pet Beasts that were completely useless but ate a ton.
It was only because this thing was won from the World Tree Secret Realm back then, and was indeed extremely rare, that Su Ping even agreed to take it in.
However, who knew what this guy was thinking, it had carved out a completely new path:
Mukbang streaming!
That’s right!
This guy made Feifei—who could summon the wind and rain on the internet—spend his hard-earned savings and take out a massive loan of 50 Points obtained through shameless begging. Taking a desperate gamble, it directly had Feifei open a livestreaming channel entirely centered around it.
And so, it embarked on the path of no return known as "mukbang streaming."
This thing had a massive appetite, and furthermore, it would eat absolutely anything.
As long as it was the remains of a living being, it was fine—whether it was plant matter or flesh and blood, cooked or raw.
Its main selling point was a lack of preference between meat and vegetables, and eating however much was placed in front of it.
On top of that, the livestreaming company under Mirror Sky Entertainment from the Tianyun Group knew that this grandmaster was a Pet Beast from the Heart of Myriad Spirits. Naturally, they provided all the resources they could, and they certainly didn’t skimp on advertisements either.
Nowadays, in just a little over a month, it had already become a star Pet Beast with over three million fans.
It was even said that half a month ago, some advertisers actually reached out to Uncle Guan, wanting to get this guy to do livestream commerce.
For the entirety of November, the Blood Bone Skeleton Locust had earned a solid revenue of over seven million. Though, as a Spirit Saint Level Yin Huai Ghost Spirit Tree, the Evolution Points required for its evolution were an astronomical figure.
However, preparing in advance would also serve as a good example for the other little guys in the Forest Heart.
Moreover, Su Ping also thought of an idea through this livestreaming business. Since humans could livestream, naturally, Pet Beasts could too.
When the time came, this brand wouldn’t be bad either.
They could let the fans and audience "speculate on stocks."
Although turning Pet Beasts into idol fandoms was a tactic used in the entertainment industry—especially regarding a certain senior artist’s Pet Beast in the Dragon Nation who, due to special reasons, received a reward from the Dragon Nation and acquired a Dragon Pet.
That Dragon Pet was the most successful example of idolizing a Pet Beast in the country.
Su Ping didn’t think much of idol fandom culture, but he had to admit, this stuff truly made money.
There was no helping it; he had such a large family to feed. When he returned yesterday, after Uncle Guan briefly brought it up with him, Su Ping had agreed.
When the time came, they would select a few with potential to do Pet Beast livestreaming.
The Blood Bone Skeleton Locust had essentially pioneered a new track. This way, using the excuse of helping the Water Venerable to facilitate its evolution was completely reasonable!
Thinking of this, the corners of Su Ping’s mouth lifted, revealing a faint smile.
Jiao Ji, who stood before him, clearly felt the same way.
Regardless, Su Ping had truly presented a concrete plan. She looked at him and said, "This Venerable is not stingy. Since you have presented a plan, I will trust you. That being the case, I’ll give you a piece of information!"
"Information?"
"That’s right. Information about the Flame Venerable! Previously, on an island in the South Sea, I perceived the scent of a massive number of the Flame Venerable’s Avatars. However, due to a special circumstance at the time, I left before I could investigate in detail.
"Listening to what you said, your Sea King Yaksha’s arm will still take some time to recover, so do you want to go take a look? According to my perception, there were scents of at least a hundred different Flame Venerable Avatars on that island at the time."
As soon as these words came out, Su Ping’s eyes lit up.
