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

Chapter 480 Dao Seed and Dao Fruit!

Of course, with Gu Yuan's keen eye, he could also tell that most of the Golden Core cultivators on the street were only at the lower level of the Core Formation stage, and their achievements were only average.

As for those who have achieved the middle grade of the elixir, there aren't many; out of a dozen or so Golden Core cultivators, there might be at least one.

As for those who have achieved the highest level of alchemy, they are even rarer. Gu Yuan has only seen two or three people along the way.

As for figures like the Yin God Giants, Gu Yuan didn't find a single one.

Although the cultivation world in the East Sea is thriving and produces many powerful figures, the existence of Yin God giants is not something that comes easily to people.

In fact, once one embarks on the path of cultivation and advances to the Celestial Realm, one can be said to have transcended the mundane world.

But only by truly cultivating the Golden Core, condensing that bit of immortal golden essence, and extending one's lifespan by a thousand years, can one be said to have truly touched upon a sliver of the opportunity for immortality.

If the elixir is of superior quality, that's fine, but if it's of medium or inferior quality, then the chance of achieving immortality is gone.

The Golden Elixir is a perfect symbol of the unity of essence, energy, and spirit; it can also be called the seed of the Dao.

It is not a seed of divine power, but a seed of the Great Dao, a manifestation of the cultivator's own Daoist foundation.

The so-called Dao Seed is actually the seed of one's own Dao and Dharma that a cultivator condenses. Since it is a seed, it can naturally take root, sprout, and grow into flowers and fruits after being watered and nourished.

That fruit is also known as the Dao Fruit.

However, those who can cultivate to the point of attaining the Dao fruit are extremely rare; one could say they have achieved the Dao.

The Dao Fruit is further divided into Yin Spirit Dao Fruit, Yang Spirit Dao Fruit, and Primordial Spirit Dao Fruit, each with its own profound mysteries and varying degrees.

However, those who can condense the Dao Fruit are not ordinary people; they are qualified to serve as the ruler of a place and to establish a sect.

Therefore, even in a place like Luofu Immortal City, Yin God giants are quite rare.

However, it is certain that in Luofu Immortal City, there are definitely powerful beings of the Yang God level overseeing it, even if Gu Yuan is unclear whether there are any True Immortals of the Primordial Spirit level.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to suppress the demons and monsters that gather from all sides.

In contrast to Gu Yuan's caution, Yu Qiubai was quite relaxed and carefree, happily following behind Gu Yuan, looking here and there, very excited.

With their powerful physiques, cultivators allowed Gu Yuan and Yu Qiubai to stroll around the city at will.

The Luofu Immortal City is so vast that even a Golden Core cultivator like Gu Yuan would need three to five months to explore the entire city.

So Gu Yuan simply spent spirit stones to find someone to inquire about some of the more bustling trading places, and then headed straight for his destination.

The streets were lined with shops of all sizes, including restaurants, shops selling elixirs, magical artifacts, and rare and precious herbs, as well as auction houses and special places that accepted various missions and commissions.

In addition, there were many monks setting up stalls on both sides of the street.

These cultivators varied in their cultivation levels, included men and women of all ages, and even included demons.

However, in the East Sea, the concepts of good and evil, immortals and demons are not so strong. Even if demons or evil cultivators openly appear, generally no one will pay attention to them.

Therefore, these demons and monsters can appear in Luofu Immortal City with complete impunity. Even the disciples of Luofu Immortal Island turn a blind eye to them.

Of course, this is on the premise that these people also abide by the rules of the Immortal City.

Gu Yuan was also curious about the various rare treasures on these stalls, most of which were spiritual materials and strange items produced in the sea.

For example, there were rare and precious materials such as corals and jades, sea iron from the ocean floor, spiritual algae, fishbone grass, and moon-gazing pearls. Gu Yuan and his companion wandered around for half a day, thoroughly enjoying the sights. Gu Yuan also spent money to buy some spiritual herbs, intending to use them to refine pills in the future.

After forging the Golden Elixir, perhaps because of this, his alchemy skills improved significantly.

He already possessed some of the skills of a master alchemist, and now, it's fair to say that Gu Yuan truly deserves that title.

Since Gu Yuan is here to join in the fun in the East Sea cultivation world, he definitely needs to keep a low profile and not let people associate him with the name Gu Yuan. Therefore, he can appropriately reveal some of his alchemy skills.

In the eyes of outsiders in the cultivation world of Southern Xinjiang, Gu Yuan was indeed a rare and unparalleled genius. Everyone knew that his swordsmanship was excellent and his strength was extremely formidable. However, very few people knew that his alchemy skills were also quite good.

Therefore, revealing some of his alchemy skills would also help him separate himself from his previous identity.

To avoid causing trouble in the East Sea cultivation world, where one could easily escape and avoid trouble, only to have their home raided due to their identity being exposed.

Gu Yuan and Yu Qiubai strolled around the streets for a while before finding a restaurant to sample the local cuisine.

The East China Sea is never short of fish, all kinds of fish, shrimp, crabs, turtles, and even other marine mammals.

Gu Yuan didn't stand on ceremony and ordered a whole bunch of things.

Dishes like steamed iron crab, crystal shrimp paste, seven-star silver fish soup, and braised turtle stew are not ordinary seafood. They are spiritual creatures imbued with certain climatic properties, making them more nourishing and delicious. Of course, they are not cheap either.

However, neither Gu Yuan nor Yu Qiubai were impoverished rogue cultivators.

Gu Yuan had slaughtered many cultivators and demons, making him extremely wealthy. His storage bag contained mountains of spirit stones, so naturally he wouldn't hesitate to spend them.

As for Yu Qiubai, he was not exactly poor either.

On the contrary, as a true disciple of Jade Magpie Island and with a renowned Yin God master, he would not lack spirit stones.

So when it came time to pay the bill, Yu Qiubai insisted on treating Gu Yuan to the meal to express his gratitude for Gu Yuan's help during this period, covering all of Gu Yuan's food and lodging expenses.

Gu Yuan had been kind to him before and had helped him several times since then.

He can't just do nothing, can he?
Gu Yuan didn't argue with Yu Qiubai and readily accepted the other party's kindness.

The two then rented a cave dwelling as a temporary residence. After giving Yu Qiubai some instructions, Gu Yuan left the cave dwelling and headed southeast into the city.

There are still more than ten days until the Yi Bao Conference, so there's no need to rush to trade and search for treasures.

Once the Treasure Exchange Conference begins, the entire Luofu Immortal City will become even more lively.

As for now, Gu Yuan plans to take care of his own affairs first.

The Earth Spirit Gourd from the Seven Mysterious Gourds is somewhere in this city. What he needs to do now is to get his hands on the Earth Spirit Gourd.

However, before dealing with this matter, some preparations need to be made first.

Gu Yuan's eyes flickered slightly. After leaving the cave, he first found a secluded area that would not attract attention, and then used the prototype of the great divine power, Dreamy Flower, to change his appearance.

Under Gu Yuan's deliberate manipulation, he became an ordinary-looking young cultivator, except for his eyes, which were bright and gentle, with a profound and sharp intent.

Furthermore, Gu Yuan casually picked up a magical flying sword and carried it on his back.
