Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 12 Long-Term Mission: The Divine Fox Egg
"You really don't want to eat?"

Lin Chen frowned, his face as black as coal.

Xiao Bai shook his head like a rattle drum, refusing to accept the terrible dish Lin Chen offered.

The reason is that as Lin Chen's money dwindled, he had no choice but to start living frugally.

Lin Chen had an idea: he would process the spiritual herbs so that Xiao Bai could eat them even better.
As a result, Xiaobai took a bite and almost spat out the leftover grass.

"It can't be that bad, can it?" Lin Chen said unhappily.

Xiao Bai glanced furtively at Lin Chen's rice bowl and noticed that it was mostly filled with pre-cooked and pickled vegetables. She immediately understood.
Lin Chen's cooking skills seem to be lacking.

"Alright, then we'll eat as usual from now on," Lin Chen said, also feeling annoyed.

As a descendant of Earth's foodies, Lin Chen is also a picky eater, but unfortunately, he only learned how to eat and not how to cook.

Back then, following online recipes, and with Lin Chen's strong ability to manage numbers, he precisely controlled the quantity of ingredients down to 0.01 grams and the cooking time down to 0.01 seconds.

However, the dishes I made were really bad, even I disliked them.

Who would have thought it would be so bad that even cows would dislike it?

"Forget it, let's each eat our own food." Lin Chen gave up.

Everyone has their own expertise, and Lin Chen was simply not destined to be a chef.

When Xiao Bai heard that Lin Chen had given up, he was overjoyed. Being able to eat pure, natural spiritual herbs made his life meaningful again.

For two days in a row, Lin Chen didn't leave the house. He trained when he needed to and slept when he needed to.

As a beast tamer, he constantly trains in defense and escape, and he also meditates every day, but nothing seems to work.

In contrast, when Xiaobai meditated and then gave feedback, the results were much better.

When Lin Chen woke up on the third day, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the Blood Spirit Grass in the ground had taken root and sprouted.

Xiao Bai was also very happy because Lin Chen estimated that this batch of Blood Grass would sell for about three thousand yuan, which would be enough to buy a lot of Inferior Spirit Grass for it.

That day, Lin Chen also took on a task: to bathe a spirit beast. Little White was delighted; it loved this kind of task.

On the fourth and fifth days, they resumed their daily practice.

On the sixth day, Xiaobai broke through and reached level three.

"His cultivation speed is quite fast. Could it be that the spiritual energy in my courtyard is particularly abundant?"

Lin Chen had fantasized that his parents were geniuses with mysterious identities, and that they had left behind some incredible ancestral home and treasures.

But it's clear that this is a side effect of being a novel lover.

The reason why Xiaobai leveled up so quickly was entirely due to his practice, practice, and more practice.

However, since the last bloodline purification, Xiao Bai's cultivation speed has indeed increased significantly, according to Xiao Bai himself.

Little White sticks its head out, wanting Lin Chen to pat its head.

Lin Chen was about to raise his hand when he heard someone shout from outside the door.

Brother Lin, are you there?

It's Qin Hao.

Lin Chen turned around and opened the door, not seeing Xiao Bai's somewhat depressed look behind him. But in just a moment, Xiao Bai's eyes changed from depressed to cunning.

Qin Hao peeked back and forth outside the door and called out again until he saw Lin Chen appear.

"Haha, this place is hard to find." Qin Hao, who was very familiar with the place, looked around as soon as he entered and said, "But I like this place, it's quiet enough."

Lin Chen invited him in and made him some tea.

"No need, I was asking if you want to do the mission."

"What mission?"

"Guild Long-Term Quest: Divine Fox Egg".

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen shook his head and said, "If the two of us weaklings go into the depths of the dark forest, we'll just be throwing our lives away."

"No need, this time is different, it's purely a treasure hunt," Qin Hao said. "Didn't you see the guild post?"

Lin Chen shook his head. He had only heard a few days ago that the city was under lockdown and people were not allowed to go out.

Upon opening the guild server, I indeed saw the post ranked number one:
[Guild Benefits: A small beast tide broke out in Nine Star City, which has been suppressed by the Beastmaster Guild. Guild benefits are now being distributed.] [All officially registered Beastmasters of the Nine Star City Beastmaster Guild, regardless of rank, can enter the Divine Fox Secret Realm to search for Divine Fox Eggs. Prices will be increased by 20%, regardless of quality.]

[Restriction: Normal competition is allowed in the welfare area, but killing or killing animals is prohibited. Competition between players with a level difference of 1 is permitted.]

[Maximum number of players allowed in a team: 3.]

[Opening hours: 12:00 noon, for 6 hours]

"Such a good thing?" Lin Chen was surprised, thinking that the Beast Tamer Guild was indeed good.

A divine fox egg costs 5,000 yuan, and with a 20% markup, that's 6,000 yuan.

Qin Hao immediately poured cold water on the idea, saying, "Don't even think about it. The term of office of the Beast Tamer Guild president expires this year, and he needs votes."

Lin Chen immediately understood.

Such opportunities are generally not available to ordinary people; if there were any real benefits, they would have already been divided up by merchants and powerful individuals.

Lin Chen set off immediately; he was never hesitant when it came to making money.

“We’re one person short. Should we call Li Zaiqing?” Qin Hao asked.

"Do you think that guy is short of six thousand yuan?" Lin Chen asked back.

"That seems to be true." Qin Hao immediately abandoned the idea and decided that the two of them should just set off.

If you really can't beat them, then give in.

Both of them were people who valued their lives very much.

"Let's agree on how to split the profits first," Lin Chen said frankly.

Even close brothers keep clear accounts, but when it comes to treasure hunting, especially in a team, there are always unclear interests at stake.

Qin Hao also liked this frankness and said, "I've thought it through. 82 points. The person who finds the egg gets 80%, and the other person gets 20%."

Lin Chen agreed to the decision and put Xiao Bai back. Qin Hao was a little surprised when he saw it and said, "Your spirit beast is level three?"

After saying that, he continued to say to himself, "I, the Panlin Python, actually have the potential to be a genius, but in the end, I was held back by working."

Lin Chen rolled his eyes, thinking to himself, "You know that working is interfering with your cultivation, yet you still make it work like crazy."

"There's no other way," Qin Hao said. "I have to pay back five thousand yuan a month on my loan. I can't afford it. It would be troublesome if they came to demand the beast back."

Lin Chen felt neither sympathy nor schadenfreude.

He has always adhered to a theory, namely, the theory of choice.

Once a choice is made, whether right or wrong, it is your own choice, and there is no need to regret or feel remorseful.

However, loans are definitely not a good thing.

The journey was smooth and unobstructed. After leaving the city, we easily arrived at the entrance to the Divine Fox Realm with the main group.

The event is not yet open, and many beast tamers are waiting.

The secret realm is a small world created by the great demons themselves. Most of them live in the same kind of people, and most of the powerful demons who have become spirits are unwilling to submit to humans.

Lin Chen and his companion showed their guild cards before being allowed to enter. There were both young and old members inside; after all, it was a free perk, so why not take it?

Moreover, this time the welfare zone restricts competition to only those with a level difference greater than 1.

In other words, a level three spirit beast can only compete with level two or four spirit beasts.

Qin Hao went to find Lin Chen precisely because he saw this rule, since he was very clear about Lin Chen's combat strength.

While waiting, people around them started talking amongst themselves.

"This is the lair of a six-tailed fox sacred beast."

"I don't know who arrested him."

"It's just a rumor. I heard it from someone else. The chairman sent it to a big shot."

Everyone sighed with emotion.

In recent years, Nine Star City has declined drastically. It's not that no top-quality divine foxes have appeared, but in the end, none of them can be kept.

After about half an hour, it finally came to 12 o'clock. The staff waved their hand, and everyone rushed in as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
