Chapter 588: Chapter 26 Birth_2

“Azure Spirit Turtle… doesn’t ring a bell.”

Song Dongyang casually looked down.

Suddenly, he quickly got a general understanding of this Azure Spirit Turtle.

“So, it’s a newly cultivated species… is an incredibly strong defense, even though it’s Class II. It can withstand the attacks of most early-stage Golden Core cultivators. The key is that it can reproduce en masse. Quite interesting.”

Song Dongyang’s eyes lit up slightly.

Within Jin, there are innumerable good quality Spirit Beast breeds.

But for a Sect as large as Wanxiang, being able to reproduce on a large scale is the prerequisite for a good breed.

Otherwise, no matter how good a Spirit Beast is, if only a few can have it, it wouldn’t be of much value.

“The drawback… is the low attack power, well, that makes sense.”

There’s no perfect Spirit Beast, even he, who isn’t particularly researching Spirit Beast, knows that clearly.

However, the primary value of the Spirit Beast as a protector for low-level disciples is to provide defense. Qi Yan’s proposal can be considered quite reasonable.

Song Dongyang nodded slightly.

The proposal by Qi Yan is rather simple, if he gives the go-ahead, then this species will be a regulated Spirit Beast exclusively provided to the Sect.

In response, a certain amount of Merit must be given to the contributor as a reward, which can also be seen as a buyout.

And Qi Yan has also given a suggested amount.

“Fifteen thousand Merit Points?”

Song Dongyang furrowed his brows slightly.

In his eyes, this price seemed a little bit too high.

Although it’s a buyout, this is just a Class II creature. In his opinion, even eight thousand would be a lot.

After all, Diwu Hall is only able to approve a limited amount of annual Merit Points and can’t just approve them at will.

He didn’t immediately give an approval, but continued to look down instead.

Below lies the entire process of the Azure Spirit Turtle’s contribution to the Sect.

“A month ago, this turtle species was handed over to the Beast Department by Wang Ba of Wanfa Peak. After being reviewed by the Minister and several Vice Ministers of the Beast Department and personally approved by Elder Du Wei, Taihe Palace stepped in and rewarded ten thousand Merit Points…”

Wanfa Peak, Wang Ba?

Song Dongyang saw this name, and instantly paused.

“Him?”

He couldn’t help but recall the unnoticed Foundation Establishment Competitor he saw several months ago at the entrance test.

“Yao Wudi’s disciple…”

“He cultivated it? Makes sense. For Elder Du Wei to personally recruit him, his talent in Beast Control must be exceptional.”

“But I didn’t expect him to make a name for himself so soon.”

Song Dongyang marveled slightly.

On one hand, he was in awe of the Immortal Ascension Elder’s sharp eyes, and on the other hand, he was taken aback by Wang Ba’s misfortune.

“Such a shame, he’s a Beast Control genius, but Yao Wudi held him back…”

After some hesitation.

With a sweep of his mana, a word fell on it.

“Approved.”

Then in red, he added:

“Set the limit at nine thousand Merit Points.”

Since it has been personally reviewed by an Immortal Ascension Elder, there’s not much more to consider.

However, Diwu Hall has its own rules. In terms of rewarding Merit, there are set standards.

He continued reviewing the remaining documents.

After ceaselessly reviewing volume after volume, the internal affairs of Diwu Hall were almost dealt with.

His gaze then fell on the magical seals, recipes, etc., that had been screened out by the Myriad Library and could be useful for Diwu Hall.

Compared to the large number of scrolls at the Diwu Hall, the material supplied from the Myriad Library side was few, just a dozen or so scrolls.

“Danding Peak disciple Cao Xian, half a month ago contributed a third class ‘Pure Mercury Yuan Pill’, can promote a below fifth-class Golden Core up a level…”

“Wudou Peak disciple Zhang Laoshi, twenty days ago contributed a second-class hybrid new rice cultivation method, the yield is 20% higher compared to regular second-class spiritual rice…”

“Wanfa Peak disciple Wang Ba, a month ago contributed a second-class spirit food recipe — Spirit Turtle Essence, beneficial to the soul… ”

“Wanfa Peak disciple Wang Ba, a month ago contributed a second-class spirit food recipe — Spirit Chicken Essence (Class II), assists in breaking through the bottleneck period for Foundation Establishment cultivators, contains a considerable amount of Spiritual Energy, a small amount of Essence and Blood and Soul Power…”

“Wanfa Peak disciple Wang Ba, ten days ago contributed a third-class spirit food recipe — Spirit Chicken Essence (Class III)…”

“…”

Song Dongyang couldn’t help but sit a bit straighter, his eyes full of surprise and amazement.

“Wang Ba… It’s him again, he has also contributed three spirit food recipes!”

“Right, during the entrance test, he demonstrated his skill as a spiritual chef… I didn’t expect him to be quite accomplished in this aspect too!”

Besides being taken by surprise, his eyes were filled with an even deeper sense of regret.

What a pity, a cultivator who excelled in the art of cooking, has chosen Yao Wudi, someone who has nothing to offer apart from combat skills, as his master.

“Casting pearls before swine!”

Song Dongyang sighed.

After a thought, he pulled out these three scrolls separately.

He read each carefully.

He soon discovered, quite unexpectedly, that the Spirit Turtle Essence was made using the Azure Spirit Turtle that Wang Ba himself had cultivated as the main ingredient.

“That could work… Apart from serving as the Beast Protector, if bred in large numbers, it could also serve as spirit food, this recipe is pretty good!”

Song Dongyang’s eyes lit up again.

He then looked at the other two Spirit Chicken Essence recipes, which primarily used a type of Spirit Chicken he had never heard of.

However, it was also noted that natural breeding is quite difficult.

“This one isn’t quite suitable…”

Song Dongyang shook his head.
