Chapter 99: They Are Pretty Fierce (1)

Rong Yi frowned and gave that man a look.

The noise in the cage became louder and louder, like something was exploding. Yin Tao hurriedly covered his little ears and Su Gu quickly moved forward and carried him away.

Then the cage shook violently, as if the beast in the cage was about to break out. The cage shook from side to side, and the man selling the beast was about to lose his grip on the cage.

He instantly groveled and pressed it on the ground.

Rong Su’s voice sank, “What is wrong with the evil beast?”

The man then smiled awkwardly, saying with a low voice, “It’s an evil beast at Evil Elixir phase.”

Evil beasts belonged to beast cultivation. Like cultivators, they also had nine phases, Spirit Gathering, Intelligence, Bone Tempering, Beast Elixir, Shapeshifting, Soul Condensing, Immortal Approaching, Mahayana and Doom Overpowering. But their cultivation was more difficult than cultivators. They could reach the Intelligence phase after fifty years or even a hundred years to own human-like wisdom, but they were still quite weak and needed a few hundred years or even a thousand years to reach the Shapeshifting phase and turned into human shape. But those evil beasts owning the bloodline of grand evil beasts or divine beast could do shapeshifting during the Bone Tempering phase and their cultivation speed was much quicker than other evil beasts.

“Evil beast of Evil Elixir phase?” Rong Su was on fire, “Didn’t I tell you I want an evil beast below Bone Tempering phase? Why did you bring me this one? You are really unreliable!”

The man explained in a hurry, “We got little evil beast of Intelligence phase, but before I brought it here, it happened to be promoting to Bone Tempering phase and failed to overpower its doom and died. So my boss asked me to bring an evil beast at Evil Elixir phase to try our luck. If you don’t like it, I’ll take it back. Guard Rong, please let the young master take a look. If he doesn’t like it, I’ll leave right away.”

If it hadn’t been that this evil beast was too small and hard to find a buyer, their shopkeeper wouldn’t have asked him to bring it to have a try. If it was some evil beast of bigger size at the Evil Elixir phase, it might even be out of stock!

Rong Su then turned to Rong Yi.

Rong Yi said to the man, “Evil beast of Evil Elixir level can talk, not bad. You put it on the stone stool and show me.

“OK!” The man excitedly put the cage on the stone stool, then lifted the black cloth and pressed the cage from above in case it jumped up and down.

The two colored shadows in the cage kept bumping into each other so fast that all the people around them could only see two shadows flying around.

Rong Yi asked, “It seems there’s more than one evil beast?”

“Yes, one is Wind Mosquito Beast, while the other is Bone Mantis Beast. Wind Mosquito Beast is like a common one from its appearance, but not so vulnerable. To some extent, it could resist most poisonous things and could drain its enemy’s blood in an instant. The one gotten stung by it would grow carbuncles and discharge pus, the whole body would rot, and extremely itchy. And it could infect others with the disease or toxin it has brought from some other places. It flies as fast as the wind. So you know, it’s really hard to catch one. And I can attack the enemy using its wings, deadly kind, you know.”

After hearing his introduction, Rong Yi suddenly got interested, “I like this one.”

Having seen so many evil beasts till now, this was the most satisfying one. On hearing that he said he liked it, the man’s eyes were beaming and he thought there was a great chance he could sell both, so he immediately continued to introduce the other one, “The other one is called Bone Mantis Beast, as little as an ant. It can fly and fart. Its legs are pretty sharp and could debone someone in an instant. It could also spin and spit out corrosion liquid like a spider. The corrosion liquid could corrupt those magic weapons with lower level than it and make it useless. It can also release ice mist to freeze anything. Thought both were small, but very destructive, and very close to Shapeshifting phase. At that time, they would become even more powerful. They are really a bargain, and would definitely be useful to you, young master.”

“Shapeshifting phase…” Rong Su frowned. One should know an evil beast at Evil Elixir phase was almost on the same level with a cultivator at Golden Elixir phase or Nil Infant phase. So he really doubted whether Rong Yi who was only at level of Qi Practicing could control it.

Rong Yi said, “I want to see what they look like. If I can accept their looks, then I’ll buy them.”

“Urgh…” The man felt a little embarrassed, “Young master, I am only a cultivator at Qi Practicing. I can’t let them stop fighting.”

Rong Yi then turned back at Yin Jinye and wore a smile, “Daddy, use your spiritual pressure to suppress them.”

Yin Jinye gave him a look and then released his spiritual pressure over the cage. The next moment, the cage became quiet. The two little evil beasts were like being pressed by something over a thousand jin (one jin equals 0.5 kilogram), lying in the cage, legs shivering.

The man then said while pointing at the one glittering with all colors, “This is the Wind Mosquito Beast, and that one with blue and white strips is Bone Mantis Beast.”

“Wow! They look beautiful!” Yin Tao said excitedly.

Rong Yi also liked them very much, “I want them!”

Rong Su then said, “Young master, they are both at Evil Elixir phase, you know.”

He was afraid that the young master might not be able to control them and even get killed! At least he needed to own powerful enough spiritual pressure like the lord, or use powerful spiritual arts to bond with them, making them unable to resist.

Rong Yi smiled, “Don’t worry. I know how to make them behave.”

Rong Su, “…”
