149: Dead Egg
Seeing that his Older Sister had also obtained the 'Nine Oxen Strength' talent like him, Su Yuan was truly emotional and happy for her.
As a user, he genuinely felt this talent was excellent!
He still retained this talent, but it had already been upgraded to gold.
It was an absolute divine talent for the early game.
Early on, Su Yuan relied on a combination of 'Nine Oxen Strength' and 'Zero-Frame Startup'.
No matter how many Spells or Divine Abilities others used,
He would break them with sheer force!
Never once defeated!
"Hmm, it seems my talent is indeed quite good!"
Su Yu nodded heavily,
And was extremely happy in her heart!
Her first talent was gold, and her second was a red 'Nine Oxen Strength'.
This talent was truly good!
To think that when Su Yuan obtained 'Nine Oxen Strength' back then, he had to choose it from several other talents!
If he didn't have the System,
He might not necessarily be better than his Older Sister.
"Waa-lah!"
The kicked-away Goblin King returned, swinging his stone hammer at the two.
The subsequent battle goes without saying.
"Swish! Swish!"
With 'Nine Oxen Strength', Su Yu was as if divinely aided.
One sword strike sent the stone hammer flying, and the next had already severed the Goblin's head.
Another sword strike, and another Goblin was split in two from the shoulder down.
This fighting style,
Using one force to conquer ten skills, had quite the flair of Su Yuan in his younger days.
After slaying all the Goblins in the cave, Su Yu still felt a bit unfulfilled.
"Brother, let's go to that Secret Realm you visited yesterday to fight monsters and level up again!"
Su Yu suggested excitedly.
"The Secret Realm I went to yesterday... uh, you'd better not go."
Su Yuan still felt a chill thinking about it.
The Great Wilderness was too dangerous; he hadn't told the true situation last night.
"Next time, let Mom and Dad take you to fight in the Gran Forest," Su Yuan waved his hand.
The two walked out of the cave.
"So, are we going back to the city now?"
"Let's go look for some good Spirit Beasts. I promised to give a friend a Spirit Beast!" Su Yuan said.
"Friend? Hmph, girlfriend, more like! You get a girlfriend and forget your own Older Sister! You prioritize romance over friendship!" Su Yu huffed.
"You can look for one too, you know."
"I have Huahua, that's enough!"
"Huahua... is indeed cute, but her combat ability is too weak."
Su Yuan sincerely suggested, "Why don't you find another Spirit Beast? Look at me, I often rely on Tun Tun for protection."
Su Yu was a bit conflicted, "Suitable Spirit Beasts are hard to find, aren't they?"
"It's fine, I'll help you find one. Don't forget my identity as the King of Beast Taming."
Su Yuan took Su Yu,
And searched around the mountain again.
However, Spirit Beasts with extraordinary talent are as rare as peerless Prodigies,
And not so easy to encounter.
This search for Spirit Beasts was still fruitless.
Not even a Spirit Beast that Su Yu liked was found,
Let alone one Su Yuan prepared for Qin Zijin.
By evening, nearing dinner time,
They returned to the city together.
In the following days, Su Yuan made several more trips out of the city.
On one hand, it was to search for young Spirit Beasts.
On the other hand, it was to continue challenging the Great Wilderness Secret Realm.
Regarding young Spirit Beasts, he was still empty-handed.
As for the Great Wilderness Secret Realm, he explored many places,
But only successfully attacked twice.
Once, a wild boar looked harmless, but not only was its fur tough and durable, it could also shoot its quills.
If it weren't for his successful Body Refining, he would have almost been turned into a hedgehog.
Two ordinary demonic beasts added another 20% to his progress.
Combined with his meditation and Cultivation these past few days,
Now, his stats were:
Name: Su Yuan
Rank: Martial Dao Second Realm Second Layer 98%
"Finally, another Breakthrough! It wasn't easy!"
Although the time spent between this Breakthrough was very short,
All of this was achieved by risking his life,
And only by killing monsters in Advanced Secret Realms like the Great Wilderness Secret Realm could he level up so quickly.
"But before this Breakthrough, there's still something I haven't done."
Su Yuan surveyed his talent bar.
Two of his seven-colored talents each had only one use per Rank.
'Taking Advantage of an Opportunity' had already been used as soon as it was upgraded.
And 'Charity', at this Rank, had not yet been used.
He had wasted many opportunities before,
Su Yuan felt he couldn't continue to waste them!
He planned to use this 'Charity' first, and then proceed with the Breakthrough and upgrade.
As for how to use it,
The 'Charity' from the previous Rank was used to give Xiao Yunfei 'No Further Progress'.
Unfortunately, he hadn't seen Xiao Yunfei again recently, otherwise he could have given him a few more gray talents.
He still had quite a stock of gray talents!
But since he couldn't find Xiao Yunfei,
Then giving talents to the Spirit Beasts at home would be good!
This way, it wouldn't attract attention, wouldn't waste opportunities, and could also enhance the combat power of the Spirit Beasts.
The combat power of a Spirit Beast is the combat power of the Beast Tamer!
Tun Tun and Laicai becoming stronger also increased Su Yuan's strength.
"Laicai is too fat, so she's suitable for speed-type talents."
"Tun Tun has no real weaknesses, so she can be given more elemental control-type talents to add more attack methods!"
If there were truly excellent talents,
He could also save them for his family. If there were Physique-type ones, he could save one for his father!
However, his inventory no longer had any useless talents in stock,
And he needed to buy them again.
It had been several days since he last visited the shops, so they should have restocked a batch of useless talents.
Su Yuan left early the next morning.
He quickly collected some useless talents from four shops: eighteen white useless talents, four green, and one blue.
This was already enough to synthesize a gold talent,
With two white talents left over.
The total price was only about a hundred thousand.
Su Yuan was very satisfied with this.
After buying the useless talents,
He was not in a hurry to leave. Since he was already there, he might as well check the pet shop again.
Perhaps they had brought in some good merchandise.
Su Yuan walked to the pet shop he had visited before; it was quite lively today.
Many people were gathered around.
"Could there really be a very powerful Spirit Beast?"
Su Yuan's heart stirred, and he quickly squeezed into the crowd.
Although he might not have enough money to buy it,
He still wanted to see what it was.
However, after Su Yuan finally managed to squeeze into the inner circle, he was greatly disappointed.
"So, they're here for a return!"
Su Yuan was a bit speechless.
He thought so many people were gathered here for something special; turns out they were just watching the spectacle.
"Watching the show is indeed human nature."
Su Yuan also looked towards the crowd.
It was a parent with a student-like teenager, and the parent was shouting loudly: "This egg you sold us is clearly a dead egg! We specially bought an incubator, and it's been incubating for months without hatching!"
"You just think we're easy to fool because our cultivation is low. I've already had someone check it; there's no life in this egg at all!"
"This is a dead egg! Geneva, refund!!!"
