Chapter 57 Spirit Beast News
Qingshifang Market!

finally reached!

Looking at this luxurious market town, Qi Ping felt filled with emotion.

Once upon a time, who would have thought that visiting Qingshifang Market would require so much preparation?

In the past, under the governance of Qingyuan Sect, he, a cultivator at the first level of Qi training, did not need to worry about his safety. But now, things are really different...

Fortunately, this time there were high-speed ring-cutting bees clearing the way, and Qi Ping did not encounter any danger on the road.

When he walked into the market again, Qi Ping no longer felt the fear he had felt before.

Anyway, as long as he doesn't provoke a few foundation-building cultivators and doesn't cause the Qingshifang City's defense formation to be activated, he will basically be safe.

And with Qi Ping's cautious style, he still looks like the beekeeper wearing a small straw hat.

After entering Qingshifang City, Qi Ping clearly felt that it was much quieter here.

Qi Ping thought about it and it made sense. With both the robbery cultivators and the demon insects, how could it be easy to do business in such an environment?

However, Qi Ping did not pay too much attention to it, but went straight to Boss Gao's Zhiyuan Chamber of Commerce. When he first entered the world of immortal cultivation, he also wanted to get some bargains, but it turned out to be wishful thinking. Not only did he waste a lot of spirit stones, but he was also laughed at by Old Man Zhou.

Whenever Qi Ping thought about this incident now, he felt a little embarrassed.

Qingshifang Market is not too big, and Qi Ping quickly arrived at the entrance of Zhiyuan Chamber of Commerce.

At first glance, there were no customers in the store. Only Boss Gao was dozing off in front of the counter. It seemed that he had been sleeping for quite some time.

"Boss Gao! Wake up!" Qi Ping called softly after entering the store.

"Um……?"

Hearing the voice, Boss Gao woke up slowly. After looking carefully and seeing that it was Qi Ping, he said happily:

"Brother Qi? Oh, I was confused after sleeping... Wait, I'll make you a cup of tea!"

"Okay!"

After a while, Boss Gao poured Qi Ping a cup of snow black tea, and the two began to chat.

In the hot summer, drinking a cup of snow-flavored black tea is very comfortable.

"Ah... Brother Qi, I am so rude just now. There have been many robbery cultivators and demon insects recently. We haven't had many customers for several days. Business is difficult..."

Boss Gao sighed, his expression full of helplessness. Who could have thought that there would be a rebellion of demon insects?

"Yes, now outside, people are walking and dying. Qingshi County is much calmer now. Especially after the birth of the demon worm, many people left. Fatty Zhou, Brother Shan and the others have returned to the mortal world..."

"All of them went back? Oh! Don't tell me, there were so many people outside before, and we were too busy to handle it. Speaking of magic insects, a cultivator in the Murong family was poisoned to death by a first-level magic insect! Isn't that strange?"

"All those in the Foundation Establishment Stage are dead?" Qi Ping's eyes were full of shock. He didn't know this news before.

"Isn't it? You said that even the foundation-building masters died, let alone ordinary people like us. It's hard to survive now. After paying the rent, there is not much left of the spirit stones we earn every month..."

And this is still considered good. Boss Gao’s shop has relatively low rent and many regular customers. Those locations that rely on customer flow and have high rents are difficult to sustain.

……

Perhaps both of them were in the mood to chat, and after chatting for a while, Qi Ping finally turned the topic to business.

"Boss Gao, did you find any clues about the information of the spirit beasts that I asked you to help me with last time?"

"Hey, don't tell me. I'm not busy these days, so I'm just wandering around and chatting with friends. I have a few friends who are doing business in this area. I probably know the information about the spiritual beasts that are on sale in Qingshi County!"

At this point, a hint of confidence emerged on Boss Gao's fat face. "Boss Gao is awesome!"

After hearing what Boss Gao said, Qi Ping felt relieved.

After all, if you still can’t find a suitable spirit beast, it will be really troublesome!

"Brother Qi, thank you for your praise. I don't have any other skills. I can only hang around in the market and try every means to make a living. According to Brother Qi's request last time, if I spend two or three hundred spirit stones, I can get a first-level intermediate wind spirit bird."

However, just after Boss Gao started introducing himself, he was interrupted by Qi Ping.

Because ordinary first-level spirit beasts are of little use to him now, what he wants is a first-level spirit beast with special talents, or a second-level spirit beast.

Animal companions are the foundation of his cultivation. Now, even if he has to sell everything he has, including blood ginseng, he has to find a good spiritual beast. Before, he lowered his requirements for spiritual beasts because he was anxious to save his life.

But now we have the means of transforming to save our lives, if we are still afraid of any risks and still look for those low-level spiritual beasts, what is the point of practicing Taoism?

Anyway, as long as we don't provoke the foundation-building cultivators, it will be fine. Ordinary blood ginseng can only attract some cultivators in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining. It doesn't matter. Qi Ping is still confident that he can deal with cultivators of this level.

What Qi Ping has to do now is to find the animal companion that suits him best within a controllable risk range.

"Boss Gao, I want to find a spirit beast worth more than a thousand spirit stones. Ordinary low-level spirit beasts will not be considered."

Qi Ping's words made Boss Gao stunned.

"More than a thousand spirit stones?" Boss Gao asked uncertainly.

He wondered if he had heard wrongly.

"Yes, it's more than one thousand spirit stones." Faced with the boss's disbelief, Qi Ping nodded affirmatively.

"Brother Qi, you are really a man who has been away for three days. I have come to see you with new eyes. You asked me to sort out the information of more than a thousand spirit beasts."

Boss Gao sighed and did not delve into it further. Instead, he sorted out the information about the spirit beasts according to Qi Ping's request.

Asking customers about their secrets, especially those involving opportunities, is a taboo.

"Okay!" Qi Ping nodded in agreement.

Qi Ping didn't care what Boss Gao thought. It was unlikely that he would provoke a Foundation Establishment cultivator for this reason. Even if he came, he could escape in advance. As for the Qi Refining Stage, if the opponent's strength was average, Qi Ping would happily accept the storage bag on the opponent.

After about a cup of tea, Boss Gao slowly spoke:

"Brother Qi, there are not many spirit beasts for sale in Qingshi. I know of seven that cost more than a thousand spirit stones."

"The first type is the extremely rare Jade Scale Demon Spider, a first-level advanced spider with a strong talent for sensing danger."

"The second type is the Fire Crow, a low-level second-order one, with the innate abilities of Fire Body and Sun Perception."

"The third type of Phantom Moon White Fox, low-level second-order, the price is estimated to be at least 2,000 spirit stones, and it has quite extraordinary comprehension talent and illusion talent."

"The fourth type is the Shadow Snake, a low-level second-level snake that is good at assassination. Its talents include Shadow and Extreme Speed..."

After listening carefully to Boss Gao's detailed description, Qi Ping immediately had a basic understanding of the spirit beasts sold in the Qingshi method, and also determined three spirit beasts that were more suitable for him from the seven spirit beasts:

First, the first type is the Jade Scale Demon Spider.

[Species: Jade Scale Demon Spider]

[Bloodline: Advanced Level 1]

[Talents: Danger Sense, Jade Scales, Toxic Spider Silk]

Danger perception: Have a certain ability to predict the crisis that is about to befall them
