Beast Taming Tower
Chapter 3: West Street Market, Red-tailed Scorpion King Egg
"If I continue to practice like this, I will die before I even build my foundation. It seems that if I want to improve my realm, I have to think of some other way."
Carefully feeling the changes in the vitality in his body, Chen Xuan frowned.
These days, he paid special attention to the consumption of vitality in his body during his practice.
Chen Xuan clearly felt that as his realm improved, the vitality in his body was consumed at an increasingly faster rate.
The vitality consumed will also increase.
Chen Xuan even felt that his face looked much older than before.
Crow's feet appear at the corners of the eyes.
If he continued like this, the remaining vitality in his body would at most allow Chen Xuan to cultivate to the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Chen Xuan must find a way to use other means to improve his realm.
"I might as well try my luck in West Street Market." Chen Xuan said after a moment of thought.
With a thought, Chen Xuan quickly left the Beast Taming Tower.
When he appeared again, he found himself still in the dilapidated hut.
At this moment, it was daybreak.
The fresh sunlight shines through the narrow crack in the door and onto the bumpy floor.
When Chen Xuan saw this, he immediately revealed a look of surprise that was difficult to conceal.
"I have been in the Beast Taming Tower for dozens of days, but only a few hours have passed outside? This Beast Taming Tower is really a treasure."
Suddenly, he transformed from a mortal into a third-level Qi Refining cultivator.
With such a good thing as the Beast Taming Tower in his hand, Chen Xuan is full of confidence in his future cultivation.
He quickly got off the bed, dug up an inconspicuous floor tile in the corner, and took out all five spirit stones hidden there.
This is all the wealth he has accumulated over the years.
After putting away the Beast Taming Tower and the spirit stone, Chen Xuan headed straight for the West Street Market.
West Street Market!
This is the largest market town in Canglan City.
Chen Xuan was not unfamiliar with this place at all.
After all, all the spiritual herbs he picked over the years were sold here.
However, the West Street market is also a mixed bag.
It is common for people to pass off inferior products as good ones and end up being fooled repeatedly.
Fortunately, Chen Xuan was not greedy, so naturally nothing unexpected happened.
"Morning, Madam Liu!"
Chen Xuan looked at Mrs. Liu who was purchasing the elixirs and greeted her familiarly.
Mrs. Liu looked confused.
After looking at it carefully for a long time, he suddenly reacted.
"Chen Xuan, are you coming to the market so early to sell elixirs?" Mrs. Liu asked puzzledly.
Chen Xuan understood that he had lost a lot of vitality during this period of time, and crow's feet appeared at the corners of his eyes.
Her appearance is very different from before.
Looks very old.
No wonder Mrs. Liu, who was familiar with him, couldn't recognize him at first glance.
"This time, I won't sell elixirs." Chen Xuan smiled and shook his head.
"Oh? If you pick any elixirs, don't forget to sell them to me. I'll give you a fair price." Mrs. Liu said with a smile.
Chen Xuan nodded and continued walking forward.
There are only five low-grade spirit stones in my hand.
Chen Xuan doesn't have much choice.
For Chen Xuan, the most important thing at the moment is to buy some rare treasures that can improve his realm.
But these things are consumables, the less you use, the less you have.
Besides, Chen Xuan only had five low-grade spirit stones in his hand, and the treasures he could buy were very limited.
Chen Xuan thought as he walked.
Finally, I decided to continue shopping.
See if there is any chance to pick up a bargain and earn spirit stones.
After a moment, a lively hawking sound attracted Chen Xuan's attention.
"Golden-backed mantis eggs, one for five lower-grade spirit stones, come and grab them."
Golden-backed mantis!
This is a true level 2 monster.
The combat power of the newly hatched golden-backed mantis cubs is comparable to that of an eighth-level Qi Refining cultivator.
The combat effectiveness of an adult golden-backed mantis is even comparable to that of a cultivator who has reached the tenth level of Qi Refining.
If it is an adult golden-backed mantis, one can be sold for one hundred low-grade spirit stones.
Spending five low-grade spirit stones to buy a golden-backed mantis egg is a great deal no matter how you look at it.
Chen Xuan was also somewhat tempted.
When he got closer and looked at it carefully, he saw that there was very little life in the golden-backed mantis eggs.
The probability of hatching is less than one in a thousand.
Chen Xuan left immediately in disappointment.
Instead, the vendor shouted at Chen Xuan: "Sir, take another look. These are golden-backed mantis eggs. If you really want them, you can get them at a lower price."
"No need!"
Chen Xuan smiled faintly and continued walking forward.
Soon, a girl in a blue dress attracted Chen Xuan's attention.
The girl seemed to be about the same age as him.
She has fair skin and a long neck.
Compared with other vendors who were vigorously recommending their products, the girl seemed very quiet.
She stood quietly in front of her stall without shouting.
He just kept flipping through the yellowed book in his hand, but I didn't know what he was reading.
Chen Xuan glanced curiously at the stall of the girl in the blue skirt.
When Chen Xuan saw that there were not many things on the stall of the girl in blue skirt, but each one was very good, he stopped immediately.
He casually picked up a copy of "Five Elements Basic Magic Spells" and before he could flip through it, he heard the blue-skirted girl say indifferently, "Twenty low-grade spirit stones. No bargaining."
Chen Xuan felt a pain in his flesh.
He quickly put down the "Basic Five Elements Spells".
His eyes looked at a small bag of crystal clear rice.
"This is low-grade Lingya rice, one bag costs one Lingshi. It can increase your feeling of fullness." The girl in the blue skirt explained casually.
Although Chen Xuan is a cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining, he is still unable to reach the level of Bigu Fasting.
Eating Lingya rice is a good choice.
Although Lingya rice is of no help in cultivation.
If Chen Xuan didn't buy Lingya rice, he would go hungry.
Chen Xuan stood in front of the stall of the girl in the blue skirt with a normal expression. He thought seriously for a while, and suddenly his eyes looked at a pile of thumb-sized insect eggs covered with mud.
“How do you sell these eggs?”
"These are red-tailed scorpion eggs, each one a low-grade spirit stone."
Red-tailed scorpion!
A first-level monster.
It is also one of the most common monsters.
Good at using poison and tail hook to attack enemies.
The defense is average.
The combat power of an adult red-tailed scorpion is equivalent to that of a cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Refining.
If they are hatched, one red-tailed scorpion can be sold for ten low-grade spirit stones.
Chen Xuan did not rush to take action.
After observing carefully for a while, a rare flash of surprise suddenly appeared in the depths of his eyes.
Chen Xuan, who knew the "Record of Strange Insects and Beasts" by heart, recognized at a glance that one of the red-tailed scorpion eggs looked ordinary, but the vitality inside was 10% weaker than that of the other red-tailed scorpion eggs.
However, it is slightly larger than the eggs of ordinary red-tailed scorpions.
This red-tailed scorpion egg is the egg of the red-tailed scorpion king.
The ordinary red-tailed scorpion is only a first-level monster.
But the Red-tailed Scorpion King is a genuine second-level monster.
Even the newly hatched Red-tailed Scorpion King has reached the eighth level of Qi Refining.
"If we can get this red-tailed scorpion king egg, we will be really rich."
Chen Xuan felt very happy.
On the surface, he still pretended to be very distressed.
"These are just ordinary red-tailed scorpion eggs, and it is generally difficult for anyone to buy them. Fairy, how about I use four low-grade spirit stones to buy five red-tailed scorpion eggs, plus a bag of spirit tooth rice?"
The girl in the blue skirt looked at Chen Xuan in surprise and quickly put away the yellowed book in her hand.
A hint of joy that was difficult to conceal flashed across her beautiful eyes.
To her, Lingya rice is worth nothing.
The only valuable thing is the red-tailed scorpion eggs, which are not worth much.
Since Chen Xuan was willing to be the scapegoat, she was naturally happy to oblige him.
"make a deal!"
The girl in the blue skirt said cheerfully.
Chen Xuan also happily gave the girl in blue skirt four low-grade spirit stones, and put away the red-tailed scorpion king egg, four other red-tailed scorpion eggs, and a bag of spirit rice.
Deep down, Chen Xuan was full of anticipation.
"If I can hatch the red-tailed scorpion king egg, I will really make a fortune this time."
