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

Chapter 575 Five Spirits Child!
Seeing this, Ao Kui naturally didn't stop them. Instead, he smiled and ordered his servants to continue serving other fine wines and delicacies.

After a while, they had eaten and drunk their fill.

Gu Yuan looked at the other party and said, "Sixth Prince invited me here today, surely it's not just to get to know me?"

"Fellow Daoist Chu has keen insight."

Ao Kui knew that Gu Yuan was a sensible person, so he didn't keep him in suspense and directly stated his meaning: "To be honest, besides wanting to get to know you, fellow Daoist, I actually have another request to make."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

Gu Yuan responded with a smile.

"Help me open up a cave ruin."

Ao Kui looked at Gu Yuan and casually uttered a sentence.

"Open up a cave ruin?"

Gu Yuan frowned, seemingly somewhat surprised.

Then, he smiled and tentatively said, "Brother Ao, you jest. With the resources of the East Sea Dragon Palace, what cave or ruin is there that you can't conquer?"

"Brother Chu, you've probably misunderstood."

Ao Kui shook his head and said, "The cave ruins I'm talking about are not large cave ruins, but ordinary ruins left by a senior master."

"Moreover, the surface of this ruin has been set up with an array. It is not fixed in one place, but changes according to the trajectory of the sun, moon and stars. It is very mysterious, and only those who are proficient in the Five Elements can possibly see the traces of the ruin."

"Furthermore, although this site isn't of high monetary value, it holds considerable significance for me. I don't want my father and the others to know about it, much less make it public knowledge. So, you should understand what I mean..."

Hearing this, Gu Yuan nodded and said thoughtfully, "I see, I understand."

Ao Kui's meaning was simple: this site wasn't a large one, and the items inside weren't particularly valuable, but it was of paramount importance to him.

Therefore, Ao Kui hoped that no one else would know about this, otherwise it would be very disadvantageous for him.

This also cleared up some of Gu Yuan's doubts.

He was initially puzzled as to why the other party had approached him. It turned out that he had inadvertently revealed some of his Five Elements foundation during his cultivation.

Ao Kui happened to need someone like Gu Yuan, who was proficient in the Five Elements, to help him, so he prepared generous gifts to invite Gu Yuan.

Before Gu Yuan could say anything, Ao Kui laughed and said, "I won't hide it from you, Brother Chu. There is something in that cave that I am determined to obtain. That is my target."

"On the contrary, I will not take anything else; I will give it all to you as payment, Brother Chu."

"Of course, Brother Chu may not know this, but the owner of this cave is Wu Lingzi, a famous primordial spirit immortal from the ancient times of the East Sea. He was a man of extraordinary skill and cultivation, and it is said that he has already ascended and left this world."

"And this person's greatest skill in life is the Way of the Five Elements. It is said that his cultivation method is hidden in that cave. I believe this thing will be quite useful to you, Brother Chu."

dong dong dong!dong dong dong!
Gu Yuan tapped the table lightly with his index finger, making a crisp sound, as if he was pondering something.

Seeing this, Ao Kui smiled, knowing that Gu Yuan was interested. He didn't say anything, but picked up his wine glass and slowly began to sip.

"Alright, I can agree to Brother Ao's request, but I have one more condition."

A moment later, Gu Yuan looked up at Ao Kui. "Oh? Brother Chu, please speak frankly."

Ao Kui said calmly, as if he had expected this.

"I am quite interested in the Dragon Palace's secret elixir, the Black Gold Dragon Bone Pill, and I intend to exchange it with you, Brother Ao, for my possessions. I wonder if you would agree?"

"Black Gold Dragon Bone Pill..."

Ao Kui thought to himself, "Just as I thought." He had actually known about this earlier; his subordinate Wu Tan had told him.

He thought for a moment and then said, "This pill is quite difficult to refine. To be honest, Brother Chu, I don't have much here, but my brothers and other elders have quite a lot. I can send letters to collect some, but that will take some time."

"As for exchanging them, forget it. Although this item is precious, it's not something I regret."

Ao Kui spoke in a deep voice and made a promise: "I only ask that Brother Chu help me with all his might when the time comes. After the cave is opened, I will naturally offer you the Black Gold Dragon Bone Pill with both hands. There will definitely be no less than one hundred pills."

"Alright, leave this to me."

Gu Yuan nodded and readily agreed.

He understood what the other party meant; they were actually trying to prevent him from shirking his responsibilities, so they would only give him the items after he had finished his business.

It would be troublesome if I gave him the things and he slacked off and didn't put in any effort.

Gu Yuan then asked, "I wonder when the Sixth Prince needs me to do this?"

The Sixth Prince Ao Kui clearly had a plan for this, and said without hesitation, "In half a month, I have already asked Prime Minister Turtle to calculate for me. In half a month, it will be the day when the seven stars align. At that time, the celestial phenomena will change, and the cave of the Five Spirits will appear about 70,000 miles away from here. That will be a good opportunity for you, Brother Chu, to make your move."

Half a month?
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan remained silent for a moment. He had originally planned to seek out the misfortune of the Old Man of Hun Tian.

However, that old man Hun Tian is not easy to deal with. It will not be a matter of a day or two to deal with this old thing, especially since there is also the Golden Sand Ancestor blocking the way...

Since that's the case... then let's postpone it for a while.

Thinking this, Gu Yuan looked up and said, "I have only recently come out of seclusion and still have some things to attend to. How about this, I will come to meet you, Your Highness, in seven days. Then we can go together to find the Five Spirit Child's cave. What do you think, Your Highness?"

Seven days later?

Upon hearing this, Ao Kui nodded slowly and said, "Seven days later, there are still eight days left, which is enough time."

"Alright, in that case, Brother Chu, please go ahead and get busy. We'll meet again in seven days."

"Thank you, Sixth Prince."

Gu Yuan was a man of principle. He cupped his hands in greeting, and seeing that the other party had agreed, he left behind a jade talisman for communication. Then he took his leave and departed.

As for the Old Man of Hun Tian, ​​whether it's half a month or a month at night, it doesn't matter at all. The key is that the cave of the Five Spirits Child that Ao Kui mentioned is a great opportunity that can't be sought after!
This is especially true for Gu Yuan now!
Previously, Gu Yuan's foundation was water-based, which was fine. He had the supreme water-based Daoist book, "Taiyuan Biluo Daozhang," so he naturally wouldn't lack fundamental Daoist books. He only needed to cultivate step by step.

But now it’s different…

Now, thanks to the blessing of the Creation Lotus, his physique, constitution, talent, and comprehension have undergone many changes.

Furthermore, he has only recently undergone a transformation of his foundation, and now possesses a foundation based on the Five Elements, which is more profound and has greater potential than before.
