I Tame Beasts by Feeding

Chapter 76: Chapter 75: Shipping Out

First-Grade Medicine Hall.

"Elder Luo, the Elixirs you refine are getting better and better."

"Many of my customers insist on buying only the Elixirs you refine. Just look at this Qi Enhancement Pill with Two Pill Patterns! It’s in no way inferior to those made by a Tier Three Alchemist! Ah, hahaha."

"At this rate, I’m afraid you’ll soon think our Medicine Hall is beneath you, Elder Luo."

Xi Wenyu carefully packed away the Qi Enhancement Pills, smiling as if they were priceless treasures.

"That’s three thousand five hundred Spirit Stones in total. Please, accept them, Elder."

Yu Changsheng took the Spirit Stones he was offered and smiled. "There’s no need to worry, Shopkeeper Xi. Your Xi Family helped me in Bright Moon City, so I still owe you a favor. As long as your prices are fair, I’ll prioritize selling my future Elixirs to you."

Hearing this, Xi Wenyu was overjoyed. "Rest assured, Elder Luo! The prices offered by First-Grade Medicine Hall are absolutely the highest in the entire Fish Market."

"I’ve gathered the ingredients for the Qi Enhancement Pills for you. After you, Elder Luo."

"Mm."

Yu Changsheng nodded, stored the ingredients, and left First-Grade Medicine Hall.

In addition to a bottle of Tier Two Qi Enhancement Pills, he had also sold the Blood Returning Pills and other Elixirs he had refined recently. As for cheap Elixirs like Qi Gathering Pills, he no longer bothered to make them.

He simply refined whichever Elixir was more valuable. For example, he could now consistently produce Qi Enhancement Pills with One Pill Pattern, each selling for eighty to ninety Lower Grade Spirit Stones. A pill with Two Pill Patterns would fetch double that price.

Of course, Yu Changsheng couldn’t achieve a perfect success rate with the Two Pill Pattern Qi Enhancement Pills yet. Sometimes, he had to sacrifice half a batch of One Pill Pattern pills just to obtain one or two of them.

Still, his pill formation results were far more formidable than those of many Tier Two Alchemists.

As for Blood Returning Pills, Yu Changsheng could only manage One Pill Pattern for now, and each sold for fifty to sixty Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

His monthly income from Spirit Stones alone could reach five thousand.

As for essence, he could accumulate over forty thousand.

Thus, this period could be described as Yu Changsheng’s fastest phase of improvement.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK.

Yu Changsheng arrived at Tong’an Inn. After knocking three times, he pushed the door open and went inside.

It was the same room as last time. The people from his family were also the same: his uncle and that Yu Changao.

But their attitudes were a world of difference from before.

"Changsheng, come, come! Quick, sit down and talk."

Yu Zhiguo wore a fawning smile and quickly offered him a seat beside him.

Meanwhile, Yu Changao stood beside them with his head lowered, appearing as if he now regarded Yu Changsheng as his leader.

His former arrogance seemed to have been replaced by nothing but submission.

"Uncle, no need to be so formal. Did you bring enough Spirit Beast Pouches?"

A few days prior, Yu Changsheng had written a letter to the Yu Family, explaining that the Spirit Chicken Garden was ready to ship and that they should bring enough Spirit Beast Pouches to collect the Spirit Chicken Kings.

"Yes, yes, we brought over a dozen Spirit Beast Pouches," Yu Zhiguo said with a smile.

"Good. Let’s start with ten this month. We can increase the number once the sales channels are stable," Yu Changsheng said.

He no longer planned to just sell regular Spirit Chickens from his Spirit Chicken Garden; if he was going to sell anything, it would only be Spirit Chicken Kings.

A single Spirit Chicken was only worth five Lower Grade Spirit Stones, whereas a Spirit Chicken King was worth ten times that.

The only major cost was the essence he used for their transformation.

However, the Spirit Chickens he raised grew very quickly, with some maturing every few days. The most essence required was a hundred. If one was well-raised and just on the cusp of transformation, Yu Changsheng might only need to spend as little as one or ten points of essence.

Because the shipping volume had decreased, he could focus more on the Spirit Chickens themselves, so the essence consumption was much lower than the four or five hundred he used to spend.

"The wool comes from the sheep’s back," so to speak. In any case, Yu Changsheng wasn’t losing out. New Spirit Chickens were hatching every day.

"No problem," Yu Zhiguo replied happily.

Ten Spirit Chicken Kings, if all sold, would bring in over five hundred Spirit Stones. If handled well, selling them for six or seven hundred wouldn’t be a problem either.

For a small family like the Yu Family, earning so many Spirit Stones in a single month was a massive improvement. And with Yu Changsheng around, there would only be more and more Spirit Chicken Kings in the future.

Yu Changsheng took out the ten Spirit Chicken Kings he had already prepared.

Seeing the ridiculously plump Spirit Chicken Kings, Yu Zhiguo’s heart began to beat faster, and he nearly started drooling.

These Spirit Chicken Kings were all at the Tier One Fifth Layer Realm or higher. It took Yu Zhiguo and Yu Changao some effort to get them all into the pouches.

"Once we sell the Spirit Chicken Kings, we’ll give you the majority of the Spirit Stones," Yu Zhiguo said.

"No need. Just take them back for my father to use in strengthening the family. If necessary, you can just help me purchase Spirit Rice."

Yu Changsheng shook his head, refusing Yu Zhiguo’s offer.

The current income from the Spirit Chicken Kings wasn’t very significant to him, whereas the Yu Family needed the Spirit Stones much more.

After exchanging a few more words at the inn, Yu Changsheng left.

Beast Garden.

"You’ve reached the Beginner stage of Thousand Thoughts Slash?"

Elder Wei, who had held back from asking for a long time, finally couldn’t resist questioning Yu Changsheng that day. The answer he received left him stunned.

"I was lucky enough to reach the Beginner stage a few days ago."

Although he had actually reached it long ago, Yu Changsheng held back, not revealing too much.

"Oh, lucky, hmm? Taking over a month just to reach the Beginner stage is hardly excellent."

"Go and cultivate diligently. This Thousand Thoughts Slash is an excellent technique even among Foundation Establishment Skills. Once you reach proficiency, then Mastery, you will understand just how terrifying it is."

Yu Changsheng acknowledged him and went into the house to get the day’s feeding materials.

Elder Wei glanced at him, his mouth twitching.

But the Profound Turtle in his hand was already letting out a cackling laugh.

Furious, Elder Wei rapped it on the head!

"Laugh again and I’ll stew you."

The Profound Turtle shut its mouth, quietly retracting into its shell to laugh inside.

Separated by the shell, Elder Wei couldn’t do anything about it and could only sigh.

’I really underestimated him.’

’This speed is much faster than I imagined.’

’And his Realm... he’s already broken through to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer without me even noticing. How long has it been? Is this kid really a Mixed Spirit Root? The Miscellaneous Hall better not be messing with me!’

A while ago, Yu Changsheng had smoothly broken through to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer. After consuming so many Elixirs, not to mention the corpses devoured by the Red Refining Snake and the others, he couldn’t have held back his Realm even if he wanted to.

Yu Changsheng always carried the Disguise Treasure Pearl, masking his Realm as the Qi Refining Sixth Layer.

But it seemed his meager disguise was completely ineffective before Elder Wei.

Elder Wei rocked his chair, his eyes narrowed.

He didn’t care if Yu Changsheng had some fortunate encounter or if he was truly a late-blooming talent with outstanding aptitude.

The more outstanding Yu Changsheng’s performance, the happier Elder Wei felt, because he had truly been waiting far too long for a suitable Beast Master.

"Do you think your family’s Ancestor can really be put under a Contract?"

Elder Wei asked, giving the Profound Turtle in his hand a little shake.

The Profound Turtle gave him a look of utter disdain.

Although they were both turtles, they had no blood relation, but they both liked to call that great being "Ancestor."

’A Contract that your Purple Mansion Ancestor couldn’t even complete, yet you’re pinning your hopes on a mere Qi Refining Cultivator? You must have lived so long you’ve gone senile.’

As if understanding the Profound Turtle’s meaning, Elder Wei retorted irritably, "Our Ancestor failed because he was gravely injured! Otherwise, the Contract would have been formed long ago."

"Forget it. What’s the point of talking to a turtle like you?"

With that, Elder Wei tossed the Profound Turtle into a distant pool of water.
