25: Beast for Crystal

The first thing Qing Yang did upon returning home was to look at his current attributes.

[Species: Black Gold Cold Poison Jiao (Exotic Beast).]

[Realm: Fourth Tier Early Stage.]

[Strength: 100.]

[Speed: 100.]

[Defense: 100.]

[Devour Points: 118.5.]

[Skills: Winter Black-striped Freeze (Can instantly release -235℃ low temperature) Cooldown: 24 hours.

Backwater Extreme Sacrifice (All self attributes × 5 times, duration five minutes, after which all self attributes return to one.) Cooldown: 120 hours.]

In just seven or eight days, he had gained over a hundred Devour Points, and Qing Yang nodded with satisfaction.

Afterwards, after trying to add all the Devour Points to Strength, Qing Yang's attributes instantly changed.

[Species: Black Gold Cold Poison Jiao (Exotic Beast).]

[Realm: Fourth Tier Early Stage.]

[Strength: 200 (Evolvable).]

[Speed: 100.]

[Defense: 100.]

[Devour Points: 18.5.]

[Skills: Winter Black-striped Freeze (Can instantly release -235℃ low temperature) Cooldown: 24 hours.

Backwater Extreme Sacrifice (All self attributes × 5 times, duration five minutes, after which all self attributes return to one.) Cooldown: 120 hours.]

"As expected," Qing Yang murmured.

But then, Qing Yang turned his head to look at his massive body, a little troubled.

Serpentine Fierce Beasts generally have poor digestive systems, the kind that eat once and last for half a year.

He had specifically chosen to devour smaller Fierce Beasts, but this feeling of fullness still left Qing Yang speechless.

Although he knew he could continue to devour, Qing Yang also understood that if he continued to devour prey, his mobility would definitely be hindered, so the best way now was to exchange Beasts for zhen crystal.

However, who to exchange with was a big problem.

Humans? Qing Yang currently didn't trust Humans much, after all, having been Human in his previous life, Qing Yang was well aware of the inherent flaws of Humans.

If the Human path was not viable, then he could only take the path of other Beast Guards.

...

The evening of the second day after Qing Yang returned, King Kong came back carrying a Blue Scale Armor Beast. As for Red Fire Ant Queen, he was still in the Guling Mountain Range, hunting the younger brothers of those Blue Scale Armor Beasts.

Looking at King Kong, who was eight or nine meters tall, as big as a small mountain, Qing Yang asked casually: "Hiss hiss~ (King Kong, do you think it's faster to grow by fighting and devouring Fierce Beasts,

or by devouring zhen crystal?)"

Qing Yang knew that he was different from other Fierce Beasts. At the very least, his advancement only required Devour Points, but he didn't know how other Fierce Beasts were.

So Qing Yang needed to probe.

Outside the door, King Kong scratched his head honestly and said: "It's definitely by devouring other Fierce Beasts. The growth of us Fierce Beasts

is mainly based on devouring other Fierce Beasts. As for zhen crystal, although they also increase energy, relatively speaking, they are not as direct as Fierce Beast meat."

As soon as he said this, Qing Yang immediately had a plan and suddenly raised the front half of his body and quickly said: "King Kong, I'm giving you a task. Go to the territory of the Lang Beast Guard,

find the Lang Beast Guard, and tell him that I want to make a deal with him, exchanging Fierce Beast meat for zhen crystal. As for the price,

a First Tier Early Stage Fierce Beast for three zhen crystal, four for a First Tier Middle Stage, five for a First Tier Late Stage, six for a Second Tier Early Stage, and so on. Go and ask him if he is willing."

While speaking, Qing Yang also motioned for King Kong to take that Blue Scale Armor Beast with him and go try the exchange first.

The ground trembled slightly, and King Kong walked away with an arrogant stride, holding the Blue Scale Armor Beast in his hand.

It wasn't until the next day that King Kong, who was clearly huge but was bouncing around like a mischievous monkey, returned excitedly.

This guy was holding eight zhen crystal in his hand, as if showing off, and told Qing Yang very happily that the Lang Beast Guard had agreed,

and that the Lang Beast Guard also said that he would take as many Fierce Beasts as there were here.

At this moment, Qing Yang also completely lost his composure.

Clearly, for other Fierce Beasts, zhen crystal are important, but not as important as Fierce Beast meat.

On the afternoon of the day King Kong returned, Red Fire Ant Queen also returned majestically with his younger brothers.

Seeing the many soldier ants behind him carrying a total of twenty Second Tier Fierce Beasts of varying stages, after some questioning, he learned that

it turned out that when Red Fire Ant Queen was killing the younger brothers of those Blue Scale Armor Beasts, he encountered the younger brothers of the younger brothers.

Seeing this scene, Red Fire Ant Queen simply went all out and wiped them all out in one go.

After explaining the reason for the matter, Red Fire Ant Queen rushed back to the cave and began to break through the Third Tier.

Looking at Red Fire Ant Queen's departing figure, Qing Yang turned his head to look at King Kong, whose aura was completely stable, and immediately ordered: "King Kong, among these twenty Second Tier Fierce Beasts, twelve are Second Tier Middle Stage.

Choose the good ones to devour. I need your strength to reach the Third Tier Middle Stage, or even the Third Tier Late Stage."

As soon as he said this, King Kong's fur, which was as stiff as steel needles, stood on end.

Third Tier Middle Stage, Late Stage, this was the current strength of the Beast Guards.

If he reached this realm, King Kong would already have the qualification to challenge a Beast Guard.

But King Kong didn't have that much ambition. He was just touched by how good Qing Yang was to him, and immediately sat in the courtyard and began his bloody meal.

Breaking through a small realm only required enough Fierce Beast meat, so after a night, King Kong's aura reached the Third Tier Middle Stage,

and even faintly had the aura of the Third Tier Late Stage.

The twelve Second Tier Middle Stage Fierce Beasts were also completely devoured by this guy.

Looking at the eight Second Tier Early Stage Fierce Beasts remaining outside the courtyard, Qing Yang instructed: "Exchange them for zhen crystal,

Remember, it's forty-eight, don't be fooled by the Lang Beast Guard."

...

There were only two days left until the seven days ordered by the Yang Beast Guard.

Currently, in Qing Yang's territory, half of the Fierce Beasts simply didn't take Qing Yang's words seriously.

Are you kidding? With such a large territory, could the Yang Beast Guard manage it all?

As for the other half, most of the Fierce Beasts had either been defeated and fled to other Beast Guard territories during the fight for zhen crystal, or had already gathered enough zhen crystal and were waiting for the last day to arrive.

A small portion, having already handed over their zhen crystal, were not worried about this matter.

Going up the mountain in the morning and returning in the evening, King Kong was already holding forty-eight zhen crystal in his hand.

Moreover, when King Kong returned, he also brought back a piece of news for Qing Yang.

That Lang Beast Guard had already broken through to the Third Tier Late Stage and was making a full push towards the Fourth Tier realm.

After swallowing fifty-eight zhen crystal in one gulp, Qing Yang spoke unhurriedly: "It's okay, don't worry about anything. Red Fire Ant Queen seems to have already broken through to the Third Tier. Go to Xuan Ming's lake again,

tell him that the rules for all aquatic Fierce Beasts are the same as for land Fierce Beasts, either hand over the Fierce Beasts, or kill them all."

Beside him, King Kong nodded blankly, then turned around and walked towards the mountain again.
