Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 417 Evolution, Jade Sword Butterfly!
Even its wings started flapping.

At the same time, a chillingly sharp aura emanated from the Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly, spreading outwards.

Even Gu Yuan felt a chill run down his spine, sensing a threat.

"You're finally awake."

Gu Yuan smiled, extended his palm, and then the Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly fluttered its wings, flew up, and landed on Gu Yuan's fingers.

Now, this Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly has undoubtedly become a mature form, and Gu Yuan can sense that Xiao Qing's strength is now vastly different from before, having made significant progress.

Xiao Qing is now undoubtedly a powerful and rare insect at the Golden Core level, and with its bloodline and foundation, ordinary Golden Core cultivators are definitely no match for it.

To put it bluntly, even Gu Yuan's master, Master Heling, might not be a match for Xiaoqing in a magical duel.

Perhaps only a seasoned cultivator of the Three Corpse Demon level could possibly contend with him.

In other words, Xiao Qing's current strength is comparable to that of a senior Golden Core cultivator like the Three Corpse Demon, and she is even a top-grade Golden Core cultivator.

It can be said that Xiao Qing is currently the strongest among Gu Yuan's many spirit pets.

He is undoubtedly the boss!

As for the Blood-Striped Dragon Loach King...

Despite being a dark gold-tier spirit pet, the little loach is actually not suited for offensive techniques, and its attack power is definitely inferior to that of the little green one.

Of course, in terms of speed and survival, Xiaoqing is far inferior to Xiaoqiu.

With a thought, Gu Yuan summoned the Spirit Pet System.

【Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly】

Introduction: This is a descendant of the ancient and wondrous Azure Jade Sword Butterfly, a rare and spiritual butterfly in the world. It is born with sharp sword skills and can unleash sharp Azure Jade sword energy with its fluttering wings, possessing the terrifying power to break through all laws with a single sword!
This insect is currently in its mature stage and should not be underestimated.

To evolve into a Jade Sword Butterfly, one needs to grow into a mature Green Shadow Sword Butterfly and consume 160000 Dao Yun Points!
Status: normal
Stage: Maturity
……

Now, after a full year and a half, the Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly has finally matured after being fed a large amount of resources by Gu Yuan.

Now, it's time to upgrade.

"I wonder what new talents Xiaoqing will develop after she levels up."

Gu Yuan rubbed his hands together with great anticipation.

The Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly alone granted him the talent of sword heart, making him a genius in swordsmanship.

What if it's a jade sword butterfly?

It should be known that the Jade Sword Butterfly is an ancient and wondrous insect. A mature Jade Sword Butterfly is a being at the level of a primordial spirit, and can even kill a true immortal at the primordial spirit level!

No one knows how strong the talent of this ancient and strange insect is, but one thing is certain: it is definitely much stronger than the original sword heart talent!
Furthermore, Gu Yuan guessed that the Jade Sword Butterfly's talent was likely inherited from the Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly's, and the two should be similar. In any case, it must be related to the way of the sword.

However, we'll have to wait and see how things unfold.

Previously, upgrading the Dragon Loach to the Blood-Patterned Dragon Loach King required 155000 Dao Points, while upgrading Xiao Qing from the Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly to the Azure Jade Sword Butterfly required 160000 Dao Points. The latter consumes more Dao Points than the former.

This means that the Jade Sword Butterfly is, to some extent, more powerful than the Blood-Patterned Dragon Loach King.

Next, Gu Yuan stopped thinking about it and a thought popped into his head:
[Consume 160000 Dao Points to evolve the Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly into the Azure Jade Sword Butterfly. Confirm/Decline?]

Gu Yuandao: "Confirmed!"

As soon as he finished speaking, 160000 of the more than 300,000 Dao Rhyme Points accumulated on Gu Yuan's attribute panel disappeared.

Then, a rich and abundant white light enveloped the small body of the Azure Shadow Sword Butterfly, continuously permeating its body. Within this white light, there were also wisps of purple radiance flowing through it.

Compared to the vibrant white light, the purple radiance was clearly more mysterious.

This scene actually happened before when Gu Yuan upgraded the dragon loach.

Gu Yuan had previously guessed that these purple lights were a kind of innate energy that was more profound and of a higher grade than ordinary heaven and earth energy.

In this way, these spirit pets can level up.

At this moment, as the white light continuously flowed into Xiaoqing's body, Xiaoqing also felt a slight pain.

And its small body kept swaying back and forth, which made Gu Yuan feel a little sorry for it, so he kept comforting it.

In reality, there's not much Gu Yuan can do in this situation. At most, he can offer assistance at crucial moments.

Fortunately, Xiaoqing was no simple woman either; she just silently endured it all.

As time passed, the original blue body, which had many fine black lines on its surface, gradually faded until it disappeared completely.

Two hours later, all the white and purple light merged into Xiaoqing's body.

Xiaoqing also showed obvious changes.

Not only has its size increased by more than ten times, but its entire body, from its tentacles to its torso and wings, has taken on a jade-like color with a very pure luster.

Its two wings, each as large as a palm leaf fan, fluttered, shimmering with wisps of blue light, dazzling and beautiful.

However, beneath this beautiful exterior lies a great terror.

At least, Gu Yuan could sense that a sharper and more intense aura was emanating from Xiao Qing than before.

If Gu Yuan was confident in dealing with Xiao Qing just now, he now feels a strong sense of crisis from her!

The little green before him already possessed enough strength to threaten him!

Gu Yuan extended a finger, but Xiao Qing fluttered her wings and landed on his finger, her wings fluttering slightly.

[Evolution successful! You have obtained the pet Jade Sword Butterfly!]

【Jade Sword Butterfly (Dark Gold)】

Its offensive power is astonishing; a mature Azure Jade Sword Butterfly can slay a Nascent Soul True Immortal. Evolving to the "Azure Netherworld Immortal Butterfly" requires reaching the mature form of the Azure Jade Sword Butterfly and consuming 1900000 Dao Points!

[You have received the innate sword bone enhancement from the Jade Sword Butterfly talent!]

……

Jade Sword Butterfly!

The mature form possesses the power to shatter all laws with a single sword strike, capable of slaying even primordial spirits and true immortals!

Gu Yuan's eyes widened instantly, and he thought to himself, "Wow, that's amazing! They can even kill a Nascent Soul True Immortal!"

However, the Jade Sword Butterfly's talent is actually innate sword bone?

That's absolutely brilliant!
Gu Yuan was both surprised and delighted.

As he had predicted, the Jade Sword Butterfly's talent was indeed related to swordsmanship and was a direct descendant of the previous Jade Shadow Sword Butterfly's talent.

Furthermore, Gu Yuan knew that Cang Yuejiao, whom he had met at the Cang family a few months ago, possessed the talent of sword bone and was born with it.
