Beast Taming: Sharing Pets' Abilities-Chapter 276 - 275: Immortal Crane Flower

The disciples of Red Leaf Valley suddenly realized something was amiss.

With a sinking heart, they stepped forward to check, only to find their senior brother glaring angrily, his eyes lifeless, devoid of vitality.

A sword mark had already appeared between his eyebrows.

The sword mark was as wide as a scallion leaf, with a trickle of blood oozing out, slowly flowing down along the skin, dripping off his chin onto the ground.

"Senior Brother!"

One of the disciples of Red Leaf Valley cried out in shock and pain.

The others also had their faces change drastically, showing expressions of horror and even anger.

"Gu Yuan, it’s you!"

Someone abruptly turned their head, glaring at Gu Yuan with eyes full of hatred and anger.

"You killed our senior brother, such ruthless methods you have!"

Gu Yuan sneered coldly: "Ruthless? When your senior brother was spewing filth, slandering me, and trying to kill me, why didn’t you say anything?"

"And now, acting all innocent, questioning me, as if it’s justified? People like you deserve to die!"

At this moment, a cyan butterfly suddenly appeared, its wings fluttering, and strands of cyan sword qi shot out densely, enveloping the disciples of Red Leaf Valley.

These people were shocked, quickly resisting, manipulating magical artifacts, displaying various divine techniques or fleeing.

However, under the sword qi of the Cyan Shadow Sword Butterfly, their defensive magical artifacts and spells were pierced through, along with their bodies being penetrated and dismembered.

After a moment, only remnants and pieces remained on the ground.

At this moment, the Cyan Shadow Sword Butterfly fluttered its wings, flying in front of Gu Yuan, landing on his outstretched finger.

Then he raised his hand, placing it on his other shoulder.

"..."

Witnessing this scene, no one spoke for a moment, all eyes on the two peculiar insects on Gu Yuan’s shoulders, silent, in awe or fear,

and no one spoke on behalf of the Red Leaf Valley disciples.

Gu Yuan glanced at everyone, especially those who had sided with them earlier, his gaze indifferent, yet it made them tremble in fear, with some even visibly shaking.

Only Ji Yuefei and Yan Xiaoling beside him were watching with shining eyes, their gaze towards Gu Yuan changed.

They knew Gu Yuan was strong, but to what extent, they had little understanding.

Now, seeing how Gu Yuan effortlessly and swiftly slaughtered the Red Leaf Valley on the spot, it greatly shocked the two, giving them a clearer understanding of Gu Yuan’s strength.

No wonder he could overcome strength with weakness, defeating the Golden Core Great Cultivator with Celestial Human Realm cultivation.

Especially Yan Xiaoling, watching Gu Yuan’s two peculiar insects with great power, her eyes sparkled, feeling an intense itch in her heart.

She wished she could grab the two peculiar insects and tame them as her own Spirit Gu.

As a Gu Cultivator, seeing good Gu Insects has always been enticing, let alone the Cyan Shadow Sword Butterfly and Silver-backed Centipede.

Ji Canghai and Su Qiuyue exchanged a glance, their expressions subtle, for Gu Yuan’s displayed strength was truly not simple.

From their perspective, Gu Yuan’s cultivation might be slightly inferior compared to theirs, but in terms of strength, he was not inferior in the slightest.

Especially with the Cyan Shadow Sword Butterfly and Silver-backed Centipede, such powerful weapons!

The thin old man, however, stared at Gu Yuan, then looked at those medicinal fields, spirit fields, pondering for a moment, a thoughtful look appearing in his eyes.

Gu Yuan said nothing more, heading straight for the pond filled with Bright Jade White Lotus.

The others were as if awakening from a dream, imitating Gu Yuan’s actions, rushing to other medicinal fields, spirit fields.

"It worked, haha, it really worked!"

Indeed, soon someone succeeded in exchanging one Spirit Medicine for another from the medicinal field.

This person was a hunched old man, holding an Immortal Crane Flower in his hand, with a look of ecstasy, laughing heartily.

The Immortal Crane Flower is a special Spirit Medicine, named so for two reasons.

One, its appearance resembles an Immortal Crane with wings spread ready to fly.

Second, because this Spirit Medicine has the effect of extending life, one Immortal Crane Flower can extend life by a hundred years. As is known, Immortal Cranes are often a symbol of longevity, and this name also represents its effect.

However, he soon froze and stopped, noticing that many people were staring intently at the Immortal Crane Flower in his hand, their eyes almost bursting out.

The hunched old man finally realized he had clearly done something foolish!

How precious is the Immortal Crane Flower?

It’s a miraculous life-extending medicine, perhaps slightly inferior to the Thunder Tribulation Vine and the Creation Cyan Lotus, yet for some cultivators, especially those with little life span left, it might be even more valuable!

For example, the hunched old man himself, with not much life span left and no hope of entering the Saint Golden Core Realm, had spent all his savings for a chance to enter the Red Dragon Small World.

He intended to try his luck, to see if he could gain some fortune that would help his cultivation advance. Once achieving the Golden Core, he could gain over five hundred years of life span at the least.

Even if he couldn’t achieve the Golden Core, if he could gain something, it wouldn’t have been a wasted trip.

Even if he were to die here, that would be his bad luck; having lived three hundred years, it was enough.

Unexpectedly, he obtained an Immortal Crane Flower; this was truly turning a corner and finding a fresh path!

With this, he could not only extend his life by a hundred years but also might have the chance to forge a Golden Core in those hundred years, thus gaining a sliver of hope for longevity.

Hence, for him, this Immortal Crane Flower was even more valuable.

But now, having exposed this in front of so many people, if he were Gu Yuan, it wouldn’t be a problem, as he could protect it, but he wasn’t.

Now, this could lead to trouble; likely, someone has already set their sights on him.

Fortunately, seeing his success, many others believed that the previous failures might have other reasons and continued to try "trading" with the Red Dragon Daoist.

Unexpectedly, while most continued to fail, a few succeeded in obtaining some Spirit Medicine from the medicinal fields. Although the value could not compare to Gu Yuan’s Thunder Tribulation Vine and the old man’s Immortal Crane Flower, it was a pleasant surprise.

This proved that Gu Yuan acquiring the Thunder Tribulation Vine while others failed was not due to any foul play but other reasons.

However, Gu Yuan paid no attention to these people; he came to the pool where the Bright Jade White Lotus grew, hesitated for a moment, and took out from his storage pouch a basketball-sized "giant egg," looking like an egg with fine-scaled patterns all over its surface, blood-red all over.

This was the Dragon Blood Fruit previously obtained by Gu Yuan!

As the saying goes, one must take risks to reap rewards!

The Dragon Blood Fruit is undoubtedly precious, yet Gu Yuan obtained two Dragon Blood Fruits earlier.

He needed to refine one for himself, so the other Dragon Blood Fruit could be exchanged for other useful items.
