Deal, Convinced...?
🕑 Added 2021-10-24 02:53:25 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 227 ---
Everlasting Green Forest was a part of Star Dou Forest and under the jurisdiction of Bi Ji, the emerald swan.
This peaceful forest slowly was filled with thousands of spirit beasts who Bi Ji helped in the past, so they felt gratitude and guarded her against another spirit beast.
However, dying spirit beasts also come over and choose to be healed by her or die peacefully, enriching the entire land with their essence.
Yunlong calmly watched over this place with a sympathetic gaze, but he knew half of these spirit beasts were close to their last breath.
He could recover these spirit beasts with his healing pill and White Light Grace, which could quickly save them. However, the majority of them had accepted their fates.
"What a miserable scene." Yunlong approached a serpent spirit beast with huge claw scars across its body, which possessed a faint living force.
[Name: Dark-Fanged Serpent(Extremely Injured)]
[Description: A silent predator with a calm nature, it usually live within dead trees and sneakily strike weak prey in a flash]
[Cultivation Age: 10,000]
[Spirit Skill: Crushing Bind, Paralyze Bite]
Yunlong didn't say much and briefly stared at the serpent's eyes, forming a simple spiritual connection. "Do you want to live?" He calmly asked.
Dark-Fanged Serpent wriggled its injured body and showed him an exposed injury dripping with fresh blood.
"I can heal you." Yunlong naturally said, but the serpent casually shook its pointy head at him.
"I see... You have already given up." He shook his head. "It wasn't about the injury, just your pride, huh."
Yunlong has briefly seen this serpent's memory and saw a golden-furred bear hack so many sharp claws on him, injuring not only his body but also his pride.
"Do you want revenge?" Yunlong suddenly smirked, which piqued the serpent's interest for a moment.
They mentally communicate with each other while the other spirit beasts are silently observing them. Bi Ji was actually quite interested in their conversation but couldn't catch a single word.
"What a sly brat." Di Tian indifferently commented because he had already guessed what Yunlong discussed or perhaps promised to that spirit beast.
"That seals our deal." Yunlong chuckled slightly, to which the dark-fanged serpent responded with a nod.
"Well, I still have a few deals to make, so excuse me." He continued while walking away to the nearest spirit beast.
He kept talking with spirit beasts in the area, and some of them agreed with his term. They have a deep hunger for strength, which Yunlong clearly exploited confidently.
It wasn't a complete scam because Yunlong's real purpose was indeed for researching an alternative spirit ring, but he had a few concealed intentions behind his current action.
After talking with several spirit beasts and convincing them to join his current plan, Yunlong has at least found 20 spirit beasts who agreed to become his research specimen.
These spirit beasts understood they might lose their lives, but anything clearly came with prices, so even if it was a risk, it's actually kind of better compared to waiting for their death.
Not to mention, some spirit beasts only had a few months to live, which was a gamble.
Yunlong gradually arrived near a one-winged eagle, who released a cold glance when he approached him.
[Name: Dark-Winged Blazehawk(Extremely Injured)]
[Description: A winged beast with great innate fire and dark elements, it could swiftly travel across the darkness of the night without being detected]
[Cultivation Age: 69,000 years old]
[Spirit Skill: Hell Blaze, Darkness Veil, Dark Nova]
Yunlong quickly read the entire description and moved his gaze to BlazeHawk, who keenly glanced at him with hostility.
"Hi, Bird." Yunlong bluntly greeted with a smile on his face.
Blazehawk hurriedly raised his head and was about to spit a powerful fire breath at Yunlong. However, his one wing and excessively damaged body couldn't even support himself, abruptly falling because of imbalance.
"With your current condition, even using spirit energy would be a painful experience." Yunlong casually commented while observing this bird's condition.
He gradually used his Sharingan and discovered so many imbalances of energy flow within Blazehawk's body, which was quite worrying because this spirit beast was actually compatible with one of the souls.
Blazehawk released an angry cry because this human's gaze seemed to look down over him. He didn't like it because his noble wing abruptly was severed by a human spirit master.
Yunlong suddenly grasped Blazehawk's shoulder and flowed White Light Graze onto it, immediately fixing any issue he had at the moment.
The severed wing didn't grow back, but Blazehawk felt soothed for some reason. He slowly lost his consciousness and fainted with everlasting comfort.
"This should be enough for a moment," Yunlong commented while looking at the Blazehawk, who has internally recovered.
Even though the severed wing is in a horrible condition, a regeneration pill should fix it.
Yunlong continued to talk with several spirit beasts and noticed a black slime jumped slowly near a mossy rock.
[Name: Demonic Water Spirit(Variant)]
[Description: A variant water spirit, born after absorbing potent dark energy from dimensional crack]
[Cultivation Age: 50,000 years old]
[Spirit Skill: Fluidity, Size Manipulation, Dark Energy Manipulation]
"I don't know if this is considered lucky or not, but whatever." Yunlong shrugged his shoulders.
He quickly grasped the water glob with his hand and paralyzed it with a powerful electric shock, which caused the slime to become slushy.
"This is perfect," Yunlong smirked inside while inserting the black slime into his spatial ring, where Yuri was startled by the sudden appearance of another spirit beast.
He turned around and walked toward Di Tian, who had observed him from the beginning until now.
"What are you gonna do with that water glob?" Di Tian naturally asked because such a spirit beast was basically considered the weakest in this place.
Water Spirit doesn't have any powerful ability besides conveniently changing sizes, which is a kind of useless ability.
Di Tian couldn't understand Yunlong's intention at all, yet he still miraculously convinced every dying spirit beast in this place.
"Well, Since I finished my term with them, let's proceed with the next problem?" Yunlong casually said while stretching his neck.
"You did not forget, right?" He glanced at Di Tian, who sighed profusely.
"We have a bad cat to be hunted."
