Chapter 66: Golden Flame Feathered Tiger
Chapter 66: Golden Flame Feathered Tiger
When Li Quanqing walked into the monster area, the air became slightly hot and seemed a little distorted.
At the entrance, a giant lizard with two heads was lying there. Its scales were red, its pupils were golden, and its huge body looked like a giant western dragon with its wings removed.
Its four vertical pupils stared at the big blue ox under Li Quanqing's butt with a greedy look on its face. Its saliva dripped on the ground with a sizzling sound and emitted a smell of sulfur.
"Roar!"
"Hoohoo!!"
The fiery red lizard opened its mouth wide and roared continuously. A faint glow of fire appeared deep in its throat. It looked like it wanted to eat a whole roasted cow.
Unfortunately, the collars they wore at the base of their necks began to glow, and a layer of icy blue lines quickly spread through their flesh and blood, and the cold air surged, extinguishing the flames.
The two-headed fire lizard roared for a long time, but only spit out wisps of green smoke, and then powerlessly withered away again.
The blue ox with flat horns snorted and continued walking inside, not caring at all, as if it was used to such grand scenes.
"Fellow Daoist, do you want this Qi Refining Level 7 Two-Headed Giant Fire Lizard? It's cheap!"
"It only costs 2,799 Spiritual Stones to take this majestic mount home!"
The boss of this lizard monster stood aside, smiling, and started selling.
There was also a young lady in light clothes nearby, feeding the salamander with raw meat, not at all disgusted by the blood.
Seeing that there was something delicious, the fire monitor lizard immediately perked up. Its two heads stretched out like a giant python, and it swallowed the delicious meat in big mouthfuls with its fangs bared.
Both in appearance and cultivation, he is indeed first-class.
Li Quanqing was not very interested.
Firstly, what he needed was a cub, and secondly, this fire lizard demon had an unruly temperament, and the demon fire in its body was violent and hot, making it unsuitable for assisting in refining equipment.
Then he strolled into the shop in front and Li Quanqing was truly amazed.
Various monsters on land appeared one after another, making it difficult to keep up with the sight.
Most of them are fire-attributed monsters, with a small number of earth-attributed monsters mixed in. This shows that the climate of Nanhuang Ridge is hot and mountainous.
The Black Fire Crow, a monster with three claws and feathers as black as iron, which is said to have inherited a trace of the Golden Crow's bloodline, stared coldly at the passers-by.
The five-colored phoenix, which is larger than a peacock, spread its wings and cackled, with wisps of flames lingering between its wings.
Not only does it look extraordinary, but I heard that the meat is also extremely delicious, and the eggs it lays are tender and nutritious. Long-term consumption has a chance of slightly increasing the strength of the fire spirit root.
Li Quanqing even saw a few purple fire centipedes, spewing out poisonous fire, burning rocks and melting gold. Their dark purple legs were like sharp blades, scraping against the rocks with a harsh sound.
In the most central shop, he actually saw a red flame dragon sculpture, which according to ancient records had a trace of the fire dragon's bloodline.
Possesses the potential to become a Foundation Establishment Stage demon beast!
Unfortunately, not only was this Red Flame Dragon Eagle already an adult, he also couldn't afford it.
"There are so many shops, but are there no spiritual beast cubs for sale?"
Li Quanqing frowned and discovered the problem.
"Senior, it took the Cloud Boat of Moving Mountains five or six years to return from the mainland. Even if there were monster cubs before, they are either dead or grown up now."
The young man beside him explained in a low voice: "These monster beasts are controlled by blood contracts, and their life and death are determined by a single thought. Although they are not as loyal as the spirit beasts raised since childhood, they will never betray you."
Upon hearing this, Li Quanqing shook his head slightly and decided to go to the other four spirit beast areas to take a look.
Seeing this, the young man gritted his teeth and said, "Senior, I will ask around for you!" in order to earn more spiritual sand.
After saying that, he trotted off, disappeared into the crowd.
Li Quanqing was stunned by what he saw, so he just let him do it and stayed where he was waiting.
About half an incense stick of time passed, and the boy came out from a corner again, his face flushed, and he jumped and shouted, "Found it! Senior, I found it!"
"Speak slowly, there's no rush."
Li Quanqing found it funny and handed him a spirit stone that blinded him.
"This... so much!"
The boy's face flushed red, and he almost fainted from happiness.
He looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, which was the age of youth and innocence, and he should have been practicing without worries.
Unfortunately, I was born in a humble family and had to start working hard early to make a future.
The young man stuffed the spirit stone into his arms and hid it like a thief. He made sure that no one noticed them, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Have you found the spirit beast cub?" Li Quanqing asked slowly, touching the smooth and shiny fur of the big blue ox.
"Uh-huh!"
The young man nodded vigorously: "He is a cultivator who practices ice skills. He sealed the spirit beast cub in ice to maintain its life. That is why it has been preserved until now."
"Sealing with ice and forcing it to hibernate is indeed a good method, but it will also damage the life source of the spirit beast..."
Li Quanqing muttered to himself and looked at the boy: "Lead the way."
They turned many corners and finally arrived at a remote shop.
When I saw this ice monk, he was just spreading out a large table filled with a dozen spirit beast cubs, lazily basking in the sun.
You can see tiny pieces of ice between the fur of these cubs, slowly melting in the sun.
"You want to buy a young spirit beast?"
The owner of the shop was a tall, thin, middle-aged monk who was dressed in a long robe and looked like a bamboo pole. His face was as pale as a deathly person.
Li Quanqing's eyes lit up and he looked at the three cubs in the other person's arms.
They were three golden tiger cubs the size of kittens. They had a ball of flame-shaped red hair on their foreheads. Their eyes were not open yet, and their furry ears were turning around. They were so cute.
"Ah!"
Because it had just been released from the ice, a tiger cub was still sneezing, revealing its pink little tongue and fangs, looking so cute.
Li Quanqing had to admit that he was indeed a person who loved appearance.
"Fellow Daoist, what kind of monster is this?"
He rubbed his palms together, feeling the urge to pet the cat.
"Fellow Daoist, you have a keen eye. You picked out the most valuable treasure I have at first sight."
The shop owner smiled and said, "This is the Golden Flame Feathered Tiger, a unique demon beast in Nanhuang Mountain. When it grows up, it can rival a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining. It possesses its own innate demon fire, the 'Burning Gold Fire', which is very effective in refining metal ores. It is most suitable for assisting weapon refiners."
He stretched out his hand and grabbed, and lifted a pair of small wings from the tiger cub's back. It turned out to be a flying monster.
Li Quanqing's heart was beating fast: "Daoyou, how much are these Golden Flame Tigers for?"
The middle-aged monk heard this and smiled more cordially: "Two thousand low-grade spirit stones for one cub, no bargaining!"
"This is a Nanling exotic monster. It will reach the late stage of Qi Refining in the future. It will be a great success if you buy it!"
“I’m afraid even if I look around the entire Yishanyunzhou, I’m afraid I won’t be able to find a second shop that sells Golden Flame Tiger cubs!”
These words are indeed good, but the problem is still too expensive.
The price of an adult demon beast in the late stage of Qi Refining is around two thousand spirit stones.
Li Quanqing wanted to bargain for a lower price, but unfortunately he was not very good at it.
Fortunately, the boy who was leading the way was smart enough to speak for him, and he inadvertently released a wisp of seventh-level Qi Refining magic power.
Finally, five hundred spirit stones were saved.
"Do you want to buy two? I can give you a cheaper price for the spirit stones."
The boss looked at him eagerly.
"One is enough."
Li Quanqing doesn't have that much money, and he needs to save the spirit stones to buy other treasures.
He stretched out his hand and touched each of the tiger cubs one by one.
[Meow meow meow] Jin Yanyuhu: "Meow meow meow? Meow meow meow! Meow meow meow~"
Is this a cat or a tiger? It won’t hibernate for too long, or its brain will be frozen.
Li Quanqing looked at the stupid and ignorant appearance of the tiger cub, remained calm, and moved on to touch another one.
[Cold-blooded Killer] Jin Yanyuhu: "I am a killer walking in the darkness. If you dare to imprison me, I will use my sharp claws to cut your throat!"
Li Quanqing: …
This cat killer had cold and ruthless eyes and was licking its paws. It looked like someone who was not easy to mess with.
Change it to another one!
The last Golden Flame Tiger was a little thin. It was the little tiger cub that sneezed just now. Its nose was pink and tender, and it looked particularly adorable.
A big cat with a golden hue that can spit fire, ow ow ~
