Beast Tamer: My pet has a game panel.

Chapter 498 Potions of Limit-Breaking Quality

The following day at noon, the Verdant Islands.

Ye Mo's eyes were solemn as he focused intently on what was ahead. He channeled his spiritual power with both hands while subtly probing with his mental energy. Soon after, a perfect fourth-tier potion was created.

"Phew, it went so smoothly. It seems that I, as a trainer, am not far from breaking through to the fifth rank."

Ye Mo looked at the medicine he had just prepared and a smile appeared on his face.

【Origin Unity Potion】

[Level: Level 4]

[Rating: 99 (Perfect)]

[Effect: Promotes the user's unity of essence, greatly increasing the chance of breaking through to the fourth tier...]

[Evaluation: A breakthrough potion of perfect quality. For a peak third-tier transcendent being, as long as their foundation isn't too weak, there's at least a 70% chance of breaking through after taking it.]

This potion is a breakthrough potion, made primarily from the rare magical herb Three-Leaf Hundred-Year Grass from the otherworldly Light Spirit Continent. His spirit pets were able to break through to the fourth rank so quickly and become master-level extraordinary beings thanks to this potion.

However, compared to the potions created before, this breakthrough potion is of much higher quality.

Just by looking at the rating, you can tell that it's only one point away from 100%.

Seeing this, Ye Mo felt a little emotional, and at the same time, he looked forward to the future even more.

As a profession with multiple categories of abilities, the secondary profession of pet trainer is not only able to better guide the growth of spirit pets, but its most important ability is to make potions that are useful to spirit pets.

When he broke through to the fourth level of the trainer profession, he obtained many potion recipes and also gained a lot of innovative abilities.

In other words, after breaking through to the fourth tier, as a master-level cultivator, he is no longer limited to simply making potions according to the formulas, but can now devise ways to enhance the combination of materials based on existing materials, and ultimately create his own unique potion formulas.

However, for Ye Mo at present, even with the Eye of Cultivation and the ability to detect, it is still quite difficult to make the potion he wants based on the materials. Most of the time, he can only make slight modifications to some potion formulas.

If one truly wants to create the corresponding potion based on the various materials they know, it would probably be possible only after breaking through to the fifth rank of the Breeder profession.

This was Ye Mo's intuition. At the same time, as he delved deeper into the path of a cultivator and his secondary profession approached the fifth rank, he could vaguely sense what a cultivator could do after breaking through to the fifth rank.

For example, there are potions that help condense the soul. Although he has never heard of anyone in the entire Yanhuang making them, he can sense that with his current abilities, he will be able to make them once he breaks through to the fifth level of the nurturing master.

Of course, this does not mean that after his cultivators broke through to the fifth rank, their potion-making abilities were stronger than those of the veteran sixth-rank cultivators or even higher-rank cultivators in the Yanhuang Alliance.

The Yanhuang Alliance has not openly produced any potions that help condense souls, mainly due to a lack of materials.

After all, to create a potion that can condense a complete soul, the required materials must include a resource that helps in condensing the soul. Otherwise, even a legendary nurturer would be like a skilled cook without ingredients.

Resources that help condense the soul, given the size of the Yanhuang Alliance, may not be few in number, but compared to the number of fourth-tier peak transcendents who need such resources to break through to the fifth tier, they are extremely scarce.

It should be understood that for the Yanhuang Alliance, every fifth-tier transcendent is an extremely valuable strategic resource. Therefore, from any perspective, using those already scarce resources to research potions that help to condense a complete soul is simply too extravagant.

After all, for the Yanhuang Alliance, which is currently facing a tight timeframe, the right thing to do is to improve the strength of Yanhuang as soon as possible.

After considering all this, Ye Mo shook his head. Developing a new potion would indeed be difficult for other breeders, perhaps requiring extensive verification and experimentation. But for him, with his breeder profession panel, it was much simpler.

Although he has only modified some potion formulas so far and has never created a new potion, he can clearly feel, whether from instinct or the confidence brought by his profession, that creating a potion himself would not be difficult for him.

As for the main ingredient of the new potion that he had already mostly decided on, he had already finalized it: the Soul Pearl dropped by the Xuanming Ghost Spirit. Using it as the main ingredient would definitely allow him to create a potion that would greatly help in condensing the soul.

However, given his current level as a cultivator, he might still be lacking. Furthermore, he hasn't yet obtained the Soul Orb of the Xuanming Ghost Spirit, so there's no rush.

"Let's continue making potions. Let's break through to the fifth level of the trainer first before thinking about anything else." Ye Mo shook his head, his gaze returning firmly to the workbench in front of him.

To break through to the fifth tier in a secondary profession, there are also breakthrough requirements. However, unlike the main professions of spirit pets, breakthroughs in the main profession are almost entirely tied to breakthroughs in cultivation level. In short, once a spirit pet's cultivation level breaks through to the fifth tier, its main profession will almost certainly also break through to the fifth tier, with virtually no bottlenecks.

However, a side job is different; breakthroughs in a side job require separate breakthroughs.

For someone like his trainer, breaking through to the fifth rank requires several things. The two most important are level and potions.

The level requirement is that the trainer level must be raised to level 49, which is the peak of the fourth tier; this is a hard requirement. As for the potion, he needs to personally craft a fourth-tier potion of exceptional quality, which is quite difficult.

Of the two major challenges, he has already met the level requirement for the former, but he has not yet completed the creation of a fourth-tier potion of the breakthrough quality for the latter.

The quality of the medicine is divided into six grades: inferior, ordinary, excellent, superb, perfect, and finally, the ultimate.

The first five tiers are based on the scores given by the exploration function, ranging from 1 to 100 points. The final "Limit Breaker" quality, as its name suggests, requires breaking the limits and obtaining a score of over 100.

The highest-rated fourth-tier potion he has created so far is the newly created [Origin Unity Potion], which scored 99 points.

While 99 points may seem close to the minimum requirement of 101 points for breaking the limit, the actual difficulty is similar to upgrading a pet's skill from level 4 (perfect) to level 5 (break the limit).

If this were anyone else's spirit pet, it might never be able to raise its skills to the limit-breaking level in its entire life. Even for his spirit pets with experience-giving abilities, raising their skills to the limit-breaking level would require a lot of effort. But taking a little time isn't too bad, as long as they can break through.

This is why Ye Mo felt that he was about to break through to the fifth rank in his trainer profession.

Just then, as Ye Mo was preparing to continue making the potion, a very obvious dark shadow suddenly swam over from not far away and soon arrived in front of him.

On the desk where potions were made, a dark vortex swirled slightly, then condensed into a cat-shaped figure. The darkness receded in the next instant, and Bai You's figure lazily lay on the desk.

"Youyou, you're back." Ye Mo wasn't surprised to see this, after all, only Bai You, who possesses dark powers, could pull off such an entrance.

On the table, Bai You, who heard this, had a hint of resentment in her eyes. Collecting and processing information from various forces over the past few days was no easy task, and it was undoubtedly troublesome for her, who was already lazy.

But after thinking about the information she had received, her eyes became serious, and she nodded slightly before handing over a crystal.

"Here is information on the situation of various forces during this period. Take a look for yourself."

Although there is information recorded in books, there is a lot of information this time. If you want to understand it as soon as possible, it is more convenient to use the memory crystal. That is why Bai You was able to record all the information he had organized into the crystal.

Ye Mo smiled, reached out and took the crystal. He released his spiritual power, and after gently touching it, a large amount of information from the crystal flooded into his mind.

As he absorbed the information, his eyebrows furrowed, and he looked utterly speechless.

"Is that so? It seems we still have quite a bit of time, which is really good for us." Ye Mo placed the crystal that had absorbed the information on the table, looked up at the sky, and thought about the information he had just received.

In the past few days, since he and his spirit pets left, the Pirate Merchant Guild, Pirate Bay, and Sapphire Merchant Guild have all developed smoothly and normally, without any special circumstances.

Ye Mo wasn't surprised by this, since both the Pirate Merchant Guild and Pirate Bay had displayed the power of fifth-tier experts. Under such circumstances, even if someone or some force wanted to make a move, they would likely test the waters first, just like before.

As for the Sapphire Merchant Guild, it goes without saying that it is a well-established merchant guild on the Light Spirit Continent. Bruce, the [Holy Sea Knight], is also a renowned veteran fifth-tier Saint-level expert. Moreover, he has a good relationship with the royal family of the Diocese of Bernard, so the possibility of him causing problems is almost zero.

There are no problems with the development of their forces, but unsurprisingly, there has been no news regarding the search for a fifth-tier Saint-level magical beast in the past few days. This is normal, as Saint-level magical beasts are among the most powerful beings in the entire Light Spirit Continent, and finding one in the sea is extremely difficult.

However, Ye Mo was quite serious about finding Saint-level magical beasts. After all, Little Willow had finally been able to create a fifth-tier flesh puppet, and it would be a waste not to make good use of such an ability. Especially since he and his forces desperately needed this power.

If he could possess enough Tier 5 flesh puppets, then if any powerful figures were to attack the Pioneer Merchants Association in the future, he wouldn't need to consider blocking or deterring them, but rather reaping their benefits.

However, Saint-level magical beasts are indeed hard to find in the sea, and even if they are found, they are usually seen swimming in a certain area of ​​the sea. By the time he arrives with his spirit pet, those Saint-level magical beasts have probably already left.

However, if he couldn't find any Saint-level magical beasts in the sea, he could try searching on the Light Spirit Continent. Compared to the elusive magical beasts in the sea, Saint-level magical beasts on the continent were much easier to find.

After all, the land is not as vast as the ocean, and powerful magical beasts mostly need a suitable environment. Therefore, most of the holy-level magical beasts on the land have their own territories, and those places are listed as dangerous or even forbidden areas by the countries of the continent.

The most dangerous places are like the Abyss of the Dead, where there are double-digit numbers of fifth-tier Saint-level beings. Even the most powerful Light Spirit Kingdom on the continent dares not venture deep into it. Most of the more ordinary dangerous places only have one fifth-tier Saint-level magical beast, making them suitable targets for Ye Mo.

Besides these, the most important point is the alliance formed against the forces of the Pioneer Merchants Association.

The sudden establishment and rise of the Pioneer Chamber of Commerce during this period, along with the enormous profits it generated, naturally attracted a large number of sycophants.

However, perhaps because the current profits generated by the Pioneer Merchant Guild are not enough to entice major nations like the Kingdom of Light to intervene directly, the forces or individuals that have been attracted are...

Although those were all top-tier forces and powerful individuals, they were still considerably weaker compared to the nations of the continent. At most, they were comparable to the Sapphire Merchant Guild, possessing a renowned Saint-level expert. Most of them were forces comprised of lone Saint-level experts and ordinary Saint-level experts.

Although these forces and individuals coveted the Pioneer Merchant Guild immensely, the Pioneer Merchant Guild's publicly displayed fifth-tier necromancers were enough to deter those impulsive individuals. However, these forces and powerful individuals knew that they could not deal with the Pioneer Merchant Guild alone, so they formed an alliance to jointly divide this suddenly appearing treasure.

Bruce, the founder of the Sapphire Merchant Guild whom he recruited, successfully joined the so-called alliance and used him as an inside man to gather a lot of information.

However, the more information Ye Mo received from Bruce, the more disdainful he felt towards the so-called alliance.

Although the alliance has gathered a considerable number of forces and powerful individuals, with the number of fifth-tier Saint-level professionals reaching double digits, it is still a disorganized mess. The actual combat power it can unleash is probably less than that of four or five fifth-tier professionals combined.

For example, their plans for the Pioneer Chamber of Commerce, according to Bruce, have been discussed since its inception. To this day, even a specific timeframe has not been set.

Even more so, no one in that so-called alliance is willing to test the waters with the Pioneer Chamber of Commerce.

Recently, Bruce sent word that the operation against the Pioneer Chamber of Commerce has been postponed to three months later. Of course, according to Bruce, this scheduled date will likely be postponed again; in short, as long as their interests are not agreed upon, the operation will only be delayed, not brought forward.

To expect those people to agree on the distribution of profits is nothing short of wishful thinking. Ultimately, the action plan will likely only begin once most members of the alliance have had enough.

"What a bunch of rabble." Ye Mo shook his head. The postponement of the so-called alliance's action against the Pioneer Chamber of Commerce was naturally a very good thing for him.

After all, he and his forces are currently in a period of rapid growth, and the later it gets, the more confident he will be.

Therefore, he would later have to let Bruce, who had joined the alliance, stir up that mess again, and postpone those people's plans until the day he desired.

Once his power is sufficient to conquer the alliance, Bruce can then push forward their actions.

"Hehe." Thinking of these things, Ye Mo couldn't help but chuckle.
