226: Level 3 Spirit Beast

The Deep Sea Illusion Turtle, born in the Endless Sea, is a Spirit Beast with an extremely long lifespan and astonishing defensive power.

As its name suggests, it is best at using illusion attacks, just like the Snow Mountain Spirit Cat.

But even though it was a third-tier Spirit Beast, no one present showed much surprise.

Because it is well-known that the greatest advantage of turtle-type Spirit Beasts is their longevity.

Therefore, the growth cycle of these Spirit Beasts is longer than that of other Spirit Beasts.

For example, Little White is also a third-tier Spirit Beast, but it only takes a hundred years to reach adulthood, while this Deep Sea Illusion Turtle would take at least three hundred years.

What is the concept of three hundred years?

A Foundation Establishment cultivator only has a lifespan of just over three hundred years; if you have that much time to Cultivate it, you might as well Cultivate yourself.

Not to mention how many resources you would have to expend on it during those three hundred years.

So, even if this Deep Sea Illusion Turtle would be very powerful once cultivated, basically no one is willing to spend the time to Cultivate it.

This is also why the Azure Origin Sect would put it up for auction.

In addition, the elder also mentioned one thing: "Because this egg was once damaged, it cannot be guaranteed whether its Foundation will be affected after it hatches."

As soon as these words came out, many people's intentions were further dispelled.

As a result, the reserve price was only a mere three hundred Spirit Stones.

A third-tier Spirit Beast egg, selling for only three hundred Spirit Stones, this price is already very low.

But even so, no one was willing to bid.

If it were just a long growth cycle, perhaps for some Immortal Family, it wouldn't be too serious.

But if the Foundation is damaged, that's different.

It is very difficult to repair a damaged Spirit Beast Foundation; you must find an item with the same Origin as it.

Moreover, this is a third-tier Spirit Beast; if you want to repair it, you would at least need to be a top-tier Beast Tamer.

In the entire Qingyuan Domain, apart from the Azure Origin Sect, perhaps only the Beast Taming Zhang Family has this strength.

But looking at their performance, they had no intention of bidding at all.

In the Lin Family's VIP box, Zhou Luo was also observing everyone's attitudes.

He was quite interested in this third-tier Spirit Beast.

With his long lifespan, he didn't need to care about its growth cycle; one must know that a third-tier Spirit Beast is an existence comparable to a Golden Core True Person.

If he could help it reach maturity, it could become a guardian Spirit Beast of the Zhou Family, just like Little White.

As for the damaged Foundation...

He is a first-tier top-level Beast Tamer and understands very well what this means.

A Spirit Beast with an Innate deficiency has a huge impact on its Acquired development; it might not even live to adulthood after hatching.

However, if a power of the same Origin can be found, it is still possible to repair it.

And Zhou Luo just happened to have the Origin power of this Deep Sea Illusion Turtle.

It was precisely the illusion power he brought back from the Magic Forest.

Even if the illusion power was useless, he could still use it for other purposes.

Understanding this, Zhou Luo immediately announced the price without hesitation: "Three hundred and ten pieces."

His voice instantly broke the silence in the venue.

The elder on the high platform also looked up at him with narrowed eyes, and everyone else was even more in an uproar.

"Is this kid crazy? Spending three hundred to buy a half-dead egg?"

"Is the Lin Family just rich and foolish?"

"One turtle supports three generations; people come and go, but the turtle remains. The Lin Family is going to outlive it. Hahaha."

...For a time, the people in the venue were discussing animatedly; some were dismissive, some had cold smiles, and some were full of mockery.

Clearly, no one was optimistic about this Spirit Beast.

Even on the Lin Family's side, Lin Ze's face twitched, and he transmitted a message: "Zhou Luo, you need to be cautious."

"Father-in-law, don't worry, I have my own plans." Zhou Luo told him not to worry.

He already had a plan in mind, and even spending three hundred Spirit Stones wouldn't be too much of a loss.

Lin Ze sighed and stopped speaking.

Anyway, it wasn't the Lin Family's money, so he could do as he pleased.

Once Zhou Luo spoke, no one dared to raise the price; everyone looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"Congratulations to this young friend for acquiring this third-tier Spirit Beast egg," the elder said with a joyful smile.

Immediately, the beautiful attendant delivered the dark yellow turtle egg to Zhou Luo.

"Sir, here are the Deep Sea Illusion Turtle's feeding methods and precautions. You can study them carefully when you have time." The beautiful attendant also handed over a Jade Slip.

After Zhou Luo accepted it, he paid three hundred Spirit Stones.

He then put the turtle egg into his pet bag and opened the Jade Slip.

The Jade Slip detailed the rearing methods and precautions, specifically mentioning that this Deep Sea Illusion Turtle was Innately damaged and in critical condition, and must be carefully looked after.

It was indeed a half-dead Spirit Beast.

But Zhou Luo's expression didn't change at all, as if he didn't care.

The appearance of the Deep Sea Illusion Turtle was just a minor interlude; the subsequent Spirit Beasts were basically all first-tier, but they were healthy and had no problems, so they attracted a scramble from everyone.

Finally, the Spirit Beast auction ended, and the third round of auction continued.

This time, the auction mainly featured Heaven And Earth Treasure.

Zhou Luo was still short of two Materials to repair the three High Grade Magical Artifacts, so he naturally wouldn't let this opportunity pass.

In the struggle for those two Materials, he once again awed the crowd with his domineering demeanor.

As a result, everyone's gaze towards the Lin Family became extremely strange.

Lin Ze and Lin Xin looked at each other; they didn't know why Zhou Luo was so rich, and his explanation was that he had made some money from Alchemy and then some from selling things.

Over the years, ever since he became an Upper-Grade Alchemist, he had received no small number of gifts, so his words did not arouse too much suspicion from the two of them.

It wasn't until dusk that the auction officially ended, with some people happy and some sad.

"Brother Lin Ze, your Lin Family has such a grand display." Wang Li, who came from the Wang Family this time, was also an old acquaintance.

He smiled at the Lin Family members, filled with emotion.

"You flatter me, you flatter me."

Lin Ze did not expose that all these Spirit Stones belonged to Zhou Luo, fearing that it would attract covetous individuals with ill intentions.

It was better to let everyone misunderstand that it was the Lin Family's wealth.

"Nephew Zhou, long time no see." Wang Li then greeted Zhou Luo.

"Elder Wang, long time no see." Zhou Luo responded with a smile.

"It's rare to meet; let's go have a drink together." Wang Li immediately called out.

The others did not refuse, so a group of them headed straight for the Tianxia Tavern and had a good drink.

Late at night, Zhou Luo and Lin Xin returned to their room side by side.

Due to the spiritual wine, his face was a little flushed, so he could only sit cross-legged and begin to dissipate the effects of the alcohol.

"Why did you buy that egg?"

In the room, Lin Xin still couldn't help but ask.

In her opinion, this thing was a complete waste of money.

Zhou Luo slightly opened his eyes and teased, "Isn't it good for me to leave a third-tier Spirit Beast for the Lin Family?"

Lin Xin naturally didn't believe him, but since he didn't say, she didn't ask further.

The next morning, Zhou Luo and the others boarded a flying boat and left Qingyuan Immortal City.

This trip to the Immortal City was quite fruitful for Zhou Luo, especially as he purchased a large number of rare Materials, including Body Refining Materials, Talisman Crafting Materials, Alchemy Materials, and so on.

In addition, the most important thing was obtaining the Materials to repair the High Grade Magical Artifacts.

As for the Deep Sea Illusion Turtle, it could only be said to be an unexpected surprise; even if it ultimately didn't survive, he wouldn't feel much loss.

The flying boat had only traveled a hundred miles when everyone suddenly heard a sharp shout.

"Audacious Rogue Cultivator, how dare you commit violence in the Immortal City!"

The voice was full of anger, and then fluctuations of a battle spread out; the powerful magical energy collisions made people feel a heaviness in their bodies.

Foundation Establishment cultivators were fighting ahead!
