Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body

The disciple-accepting ceremony was nearing its end. All the miscellaneous people had dispersed, leaving behind only the peak masters and elders. Accompanied by them, Gu Xi came to the Treasure Pavilion. This was something that Shen Tianyi had promised him.

The Treasure Pavilion could be said to have everything, whether it was powerful cultivation methods, supreme-grade treasures, or all kinds of Familiar Beast eggs.

Through special means, a cultivator could form a contract with a demonic beast, making them Familiar Beasts that could fight alongside the cultivator and increase his fighting strength. Some cultivators had strong spiritual energy, and could even form a contract with several of them.

“I see that you don’t have any Familiar Beasts by your side. Why don’t you choose one of these? I think it will be like adding wings to a tiger in your future battles.”

Gu Xi also felt that it made sense.

However, there were so many Familiar Beast eggs in front of him that it was almost dazzling to look at. They were all nourished with spiritual energy.

Gu Xi looked at them one by one, and Elder Zhao, who was in charge of watching them, said in a flattering manner, “This Space-splitting Rock Crocodile egg has the strength of a Foundation Establishment when it is born. Moreover, besides its strong defense, it also has extraordinary strength. It can be said to have both offense and defense.”

Gu Xi looked in the direction he was pointing at. It was an earthy yellow egg, covered with black-gray patterns. He could feel the heavy earth elements coming from it. It seemed to be pretty good.

He shook his head. Although the Space-splitting Rock Crocodile was good, its body was huge, and therefore clumsy. It was not what he wanted.

“What about the Eight-winged Blood Snake? With the increase in cultivation and strength, it would grow a pair of wings at every stage. When it has eight wings, it would possess the strength of a human cultivator in the form of a dragon. It is said to have heaven-defying potential. What do you think?”

Gu Xi was quite tempted. An Eight-winged Blood Snake in the mastery stage could even instantly kill a Spirit Gathering Cultivator.

However, although it was powerful in the late stage, it was weak in the early stage. Moreover, there were very strict conditions for it to grow its wings. If there was a mistake, it would stop moving forward. Nurturing it would take too much time, so it was not his first choice.

“The Golden-winged Dan Sparrow is not bad either. It is the offspring of the Golden-winged Great Penguin and the Demon Pattern Dan Sparrow. It has gathered the strengths of both species. Not only does it have extremely lethal attacks, but its speed is also unparalleled. Whether it is used to escape or to chase after the enemy, it is top-notch.”

“The Wind-controlling Divine Eagle, the Black-gold Underworld-armored Rhinoceros, the Three-legged Golden Toad, the Blue-armored Giant Lizard, the Howling Moon Sky Wolf, the Heaven-swallowing Giant Python, the Ape Spirit Stone Monkey, the Purple-winged Unicorn, the Earth Two-headed Lion Tiger Beast...”

Elder Zhao introduced them one by one. He spoke until his mouth was dry and his throat felt like it was about to fall off, but Gu Xi did not like any of them. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“May I ask what kind of Familiar Beast are you looking for?”

Gu Xi did not know either. Elder Zhao had mentioned a few that were not bad, but he felt that something was missing.

They were almost at the end, but Gu Xi had not picked a suitable one yet. He casually glanced around, and something in the corner caught his attention.

It was a gray egg that had been thrown at the bottom of the cabinet. He did not know if it had been accidentally thrown there by someone else, but it was almost covered in dust.

Elder Zhao followed Gu Xi’s gaze and looked over. “Eh, why is there an egg here? It’s not registered yet.”

There was no spiritual energy on the egg, and he did not know what kind of creature it was. It was probably too weak, so there was no fluctuation. Elder Zhao did not take it to heart.

[System has detected that the Familiar Beast egg contains the bloodline of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox.] f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

[52,468 flaws have been discovered. Do you wish to extract the flaws and repair them?]

The mechanical voice that suddenly came to Gu Xi’s mind shocked him greatly. Even the Familiar Beast egg could be purified to remove impurities!

It was as if the door to a new world had opened.

What surprised Gu Xi the most was that this gray egg actually had the bloodline of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox. However, it could be seen that the bloodline power was extremely weak. Otherwise, there would not be so many flaws and impurities.

“I’ve chosen it.”

Seeing that Gu Xi had placed so many powerful subdued beast eggs aside and instead picked up this gray egg, Shen Tianyi and Elder Zhao both had incredulous expressions on their faces.

“Are you sure you don’t want to take another look?”

Gu Xi held the egg in his hand and said without batting an eyelid, “I’ll take it. This egg is quite a match for me.”

Shen Tianyi and Elder Zhao looked at each other. The gray egg did not have any special features. However, since Gu Xi insisted on choosing it, they could not say anything more.

Perhaps they did not understand the world of geniuses. Special people often had special tastes.

After choosing the Familiar Beast egg, Shen Tianyi led Gu Xi to the Scripture Depository. The Guardian Elder that Gu Xi met before was not present this time, and he was replaced by another one.

The Guardian Elder saw that it was the Sect Leader and Gu Xi, and he was very respectful.

This time, Gu Xi did not spend too much time. He directly took out the cultivation methods she had chosen previously, the ‘Tiger Subjugation Fist’ and ‘Lost Track Steps’. Although these were common cultivation methods, the effects were better when extracted.

The Great Dao was simple. Only the most basic things would have miraculous effects. Everything that followed was derived from them.

Seeing Gu Xi come out from the Scripture Depository so quickly, Shen Tianyi was a little surprised. After all, he had spent quite a bit of time selecting Familiar Beast eggs previously. Shen Tianyi could not help but feel a little curious.

“What cultivation methods did you choose?”

Gu Xi took out two extremely ordinary, very common goods, ‘Tiger Subjugation Fist’ and ‘Lost Track Steps’.

For a moment, everyone looked at each other speechlessly.

Shen Tianyi thought that based on Gu Xi’s cultivation level, he would have chosen cultivation techniques like ‘Wanxiang Footwork’ and ‘Evil Warding Heaven Splitting Fist’. In the end, this was it?

After the grey egg, he chose these ordinary cultivation methods. To put it bluntly, he could easily choose top-grade cultivation methods and Magic Treasures, but he chose a pile of worthless junk.

Could it be that all geniuses were so willful? Could it be that Gu Xi did not want to rely on external items? Did he want to purely rely on his own strength?

Shen Tianyi could not help but ask, “Did you take the wrong one?”

“I didn’t take the wrong one. I think these two cultivation methods are quite suitable for me.”

...

Even inner sect disciples did not like these kinds of cultivation methods, let alone personal disciples. Logically speaking, there should be better cultivation methods and techniques, but why did Gu Xi pick these ones?

“Take this one.”

Shen Tianyi really could not stand it. He waved his sleeve, and a stream of light flashed and fell into Gu Xi’s arms.

The words ‘Baopu Pill Refining Technique’ came into view. The golden light flowing around the cover indicated that it was extraordinary. This was actually a divine-grade cultivation method!

“Take it back and study it well. It will definitely be very useful in the future.”

What a joke. Shen Tianyi did not want people to think that he was a singly master, and only gave Gu Xi some lowly, cheap items.

Gu Xi wanted to refuse, but looking at Shen Tianyi’s expression, he had no choice but to thank him.

“Next, let’s go to your training ground and take a look.”
