[Spirit Beast: Azure Luan Egg]
[Grade: Fourth-Order]
[Description: A powerful Spirit Beast containing a trace of Divine Beast Bloodline, possessing terrifying speed and extremely strong recovery ability, capable of controlling flames...]
[Trait: Companion Spirit Beast]
When the information about this Spirit Beast egg came into view, Zhou Luo's eyes lit up.
A Fourth-Order Spirit Beast.
This was an existence comparable to a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator.
He didn't expect that he would actually be able to draw such an important treasure.
For a moment, he felt his heart surge with excitement.
Moreover, looking at the description, if this Azure Luan could grow up, the abilities it possessed would become extremely terrifying.
It would even surpass the Snow Mountain Spirit Cat.
It seems his luck wasn't bad at all.
Zhou Luo looked at the introduction, his gaze finally landing on the Spirit Beast trait.
Companion Spirit Beast.
Another surprise!
Zhou Luo had thought this was just a simple Fourth-Order Spirit Beast, but seeing the trait afterwards, he couldn't help but be extremely shocked.
Companion Spirit Beasts are a relatively special category among Spirit Beasts, and they are often very rare. Some companion Spirit Beasts are even existences rarely seen in a thousand years, and only a very small number of lucky people can possess them.
The reason is that they not only possess terrifying combat abilities but can also assist their Master in Cultivation.
Often, companion Spirit Beasts have powerful auxiliary effects.
They can bring various incredible powers to Cultivators during their Cultivation, including but not limited to the power they carry themselves. Their effect is similar to Bloodline Physiques.
For example, if this Azure Luan could become someone's companion Spirit Beast, the owner would not only be able to communicate telepathically with the Azure Luan but also be influenced by it, greatly promoting their own Cultivation and making the mobilization of fire-attribute spirit energy more effortless.
It is precisely because of their powerful abilities that this type of Spirit Beast is extremely scarce.
At least for now, Zhou Luo had never heard any news about companion Spirit Beasts on the market. If he hadn't mastered all the One Rank Beast Taming Skill, he probably wouldn't have known this much detail.
No wonder what he drew this Time was a Spirit Beast egg, not a complete Spirit Beast.
It seems the System intended for it to become a companion Spirit Beast.
Zhou Luo thought to himself.
But the first requirement for companion Spirit Beasts is that the owner must be a newborn infant.
Only infants who have not been tainted by the dust of the mortal world can establish a connection with them and grow together.
Otherwise, it will not be able to hatch automatically and will lose the special abilities brought by being a companion.
Zhou Luo definitely couldn't use it. Only the fetus in Lin Xi's womb was most suitable.
However, the Ling Gen (Spiritual Root) quality of this fetus still needed to be confirmed.
Otherwise, if a Nine-Rank Spiritual Root were to use a companion Spirit Beast, wouldn't that be a waste of heavenly treasures?
Zhou Luo didn't plan to forcibly hatch this Spirit Beast Pill himself.
Firstly, he already had Bai, a Third-Order Spirit Beast, so he didn't need to worry about safety issues at least before condensing his Golden Core.
Secondly, he himself did not meet the requirements for being a companion, and the growth of his children was also better for him.
After all, the future maintenance of the Zhou Family still needed these children to support it. At that Time, he only needed to focus on Cultivation.
So in the end, Zhou Luo did not take it out of his backpack. He just planned to wait until a descendant with a good Ling Gen (Spiritual Root) was born before giving it to them.
Recalling his thoughts, Zhou Luo suddenly noticed that Lin Xi, who was beside him, seemed to have a pale complexion.
His heart tightened, and he quickly sent out a wisp of spirit energy, injecting it into her body.
The spirit energy circulated throughout her body and instantly found the problem.
It turned out that when the fetus was conceived, it absorbed a large amount of her blood and heart power, causing damage to her body and a slight problem.
This kind of problem involved the Foundation and was significantly related to the child Lin Xi had given birth to in a short period of Time.
Ultimately, she was not a baby-making machine, and giving birth to children would also bring a considerable degree of damage to Female Cultivators.
Not long after giving birth to her last child, she became pregnant again this Time, which naturally inevitably brought some harm.
Zhou Luo did not give her any Pills. Instead, he began to circulate the Dragon-Phoenix Union Art.
This Dual Cultivation Technique could not only improve the Realm and strength of the Dual Cultivation practitioners but also repair some foundational damage.
As the saying goes, Dragon is the master of Yang, and Phoenix is the master of Yin.
The union of Yin and Yang can harmonize oneself, promote injury recovery, and bring about Nirvana and rebirth.
Previously, it was precisely by relying on this Dual Cultivation Method that she was able to compensate for the losses brought about by giving birth to children, allowing Lin Xi to maintain her original strength.
As the Dragon-Phoenix Union Art operated, wisps of mysterious aura were injected into Lin Xi's body, and the power brought by the art began to repair Lin Xi's Foundation.
This repair was very slow, but it was effective.
After all, this was one of the three great Dual Cultivation Methods inherited from the ancient Joyous Union Righteous Path, and its ability was extremely mysterious and powerful.
When the Time was almost right, Lin Xi opened her eyes and said apologetically, "Husband, you were worried."
"It's not your fault, it's my problem," Zhou Luo comforted her.
This matter, in the final analysis, was related to his request for children.
Although after mastering the Dual Cultivation Method and some techniques to consolidate essence and lock Yang, his consumption in matters of men and women gradually decreased.
However, the women by his side had to carry the fetus for ten months and then give birth to the child, and the loss during this process could not be compensated for.
This was also why Zhou Luo rarely let Lin Qinghan and the others have children now.
Because of frequent childbirth, their Foundations were affected to varying degrees.
Lin Xi at least had the Dragon-Phoenix Union Art for repair, while they could only take spiritual elixirs and miraculous medicines to recuperate.
Humans are not plants; how can they be without feelings?
Zhou Luo did not treat this group of wives and concubines as breeding tools, so naturally, he had to consider their thoughts.
Therefore, the key was still to continue finding new women with high Ling Gen (Spiritual Root) quality.
The next day, Zhou Luo specially prepared several Pills to repair Lin Xi's body.
These Pills were specially refined by him and had a good effect on repairing the body's Foundation.
Ten days later, the large-scale auction began.
Although Zhou Luo was interested in the auxiliary medicines at the auction, he did not show up in person.
Instead, he asked Wang Lang to buy them for him, while he transformed into an ordinary Middle-aged man and followed beside him.
"Brother Zhou, you're making me a shield."
On the road, Wang Lang looked at the unremarkable Middle-aged man beside him and said with a bitter smile.
"Didn't I give you an eighty percent discount?" Zhou Luo said in a deep voice.
In order to get Wang Lang's help, he specifically stated that if the other party wanted to buy the Clear Heart Bell at that Time, he could give him an eighty percent discount.
A hint of helplessness flashed across Wang Lang's lips, and he transmitted his voice, "Brother Zhou, although it's an eighty percent discount, if I get targeted at that Time, you can't just leave me."
"Don't worry, how could you encounter an assassination if you don't leave the Immortal City?" Zhou Luo replied.
Fighting is prohibited in the Immortal City. Once discovered, they will not only be expelled from the Immortal City but also have their Cultivation crippled.
Wang Lang, however, said seriously.
"That's not necessarily true. Many people die in the Immortal City every Nian."
