Chapter 38: The Allure of the Spirit Beast Pill
Hearing these words, Zhou Yu let out a puff of laughter. Uncle-Master Wu was truly worn down by the torment.
Only, what Uncle-Master Wu did not know was that two days ago, Zhou Yu had already changed the person once, and the person he changed to was the important figure from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, Senior Brother Zheng.
If he had a choice, he also did not want to push this Uncle-Master into a corner. It was just that given the current situation, he had no other way. He could only sacrifice his Uncle-Master for his own benefit, and then feel a great deal of sympathy for him.
Zhou Yu said a sentence into the Radio. Uncle-Master Wu still could not hear it. Zhou Yu looked at the bag containing the Spirit Beast Pill in his hand, as if he thought of a certain possibility. Then he tested it using a bottle of mineral water on the table.
However, no matter how much he wished for this bottle of mineral water to enter the Immortal World, he was not successful.
He shook his head helplessly. It seemed either the time was not right yet, or the Radio still needed an upgrade.
Uncle-Master Wu saw that even after saying such soft words, there was still no reaction. He cursed a few more times angrily, and then the Radio once again emitted a sizzling sound.
Zhou Yu smiled. He wondered if next time, Uncle-Master Wu would find the Sect Leader of the sect to ambush him in return.
He picked up the Radio and tried tuning the frequency downwards. Apart from the sizzling sound, no other sound appeared. Very quickly, even the sizzling sound disappeared.
Putting the Radio back on the table, Zhou Yu picked up the bag containing the Spirit Beast Pill. An excited look could not help but appear on his face. If it could increase the intelligence of Spirit Beasts, surely it would also work on animals on Earth. The smarter the three dogs he raised became, the safer this courtyard would be.
After his mood slowly calmed down, he placed the bag inside a drawer of the table, turned off the light, and continued sleeping.
Early the next morning, Zhou Yu got up, exercised for a while, picked some Grapes, and ate them together with Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao.
After finishing the Grapes, he walked into the room and fetched the bag containing the Spirit Beast Pill. He took out one blackish-brown Spirit Beast Pill from it.
It looked like this thing simply could not compare to the Spirit Gathering Array and the Spirit Stabilizing Liquid. Only, it was giving off a faint fragrance.
At this moment, Huzi seemed to smell something. He immediately ran over, wagging his tail non-stop at Zhou Yu, his eyes tightly fixed on the Spirit Beast Pill in Zhou Yu’s hand.
Seeing this scene, a strange look appeared on Zhou Yu’s face. It seemed the allure of this Spirit Beast Pill for animals was very great. Perhaps it contained the Essence Blood of other Spirit Beasts.
Not far away, Dabao and Xiaobao also sensed the presence of the Spirit Beast Pill. They raced towards him, their little tails wagging like little drums.
Judging from the reactions of these three dogs, he knew this unremarkable-looking Spirit Beast Pill was no ordinary item. Zhou Yu held this Spirit Beast Pill in his hand and was just about to feed it into Huzi’s mouth when he suddenly thought of something and stopped.
He took out a small knife from his keychain and cut this Spirit Beast Pill, which was about the size of a sugar bean, into two halves. The cutting went smoothly, without any hindrance.
Subsequently, Zhou Yu fed this half of the Spirit Beast Pill to Huzi. He saw Huzi swiftly rush over, stretch out his tongue, and roll the half Spirit Beast Pill into his mouth.
In Immortal World novels, some Elixirs were too powerful. If humans or certain Spirit Beasts couldn’t withstand them, their blood vessels and meridians could burst, leading to death. He too needed to test it out.
After feeding Huzi, Zhou Yu made another cut on this half Spirit Beast Pill and separately fed the pieces to Dabao and Xiaobao. The two little dogs, just like Huzi, immediately gathered around and separately rolled away a quarter of the Spirit Beast Pill from his hand.
He waited for about half an hour. Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao showed no discomfort. On the contrary, they were running around the courtyard very energetically.
Zhou Yu confirmed his thoughts. The greatest effect of this Spirit Beast Pill might only be to increase intelligence. Enhancing the body probably only had a slight effect.
Afterwards, he took out another Spirit Beast Pill. Following the same method, he fed it to Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao, thus concluding today’s Spirit Beast Pill feeding. Tomorrow, he planned to give each dog one pill.
After returning from delivering the Grapes, Zhou Yu saw an additional white creature in the courtyard. It was precisely the Little White Fox. This time, it changed the target of its play from Huzi to Dabao and Xiaobao.
“Xiaobai, come here.” Seeing this Little White Fox, he waved his hand with a smile.
Hearing Zhou Yu’s call, the Little White Fox walked over unhurriedly. Compared to Huzi and the three dogs, it was far less eager.
A mysterious smile appeared on Zhou Yu’s face. Being so slow and dragging its feet, there was a way to deal with it. He then immediately took out one Spirit Beast Pill from the bag.
The bag containing the Elixir, though seemingly ordinary, had the ability to block any smell from the Elixir. Inside the bag, neither Huzi, Dabao, nor Xiaobao could sense even a bit of it.
When the Little White Fox smelled the scent of the Spirit Beast Pill, it anxiously looked around the nearby area. When it realized this smell was emanating from Zhou Yu’s hand, it immediately shot toward Zhou Yu like an arrow.
Not just the Little White Fox, but Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao nearby also followed the scent and chased over.
Seeing the Little White Fox chasing over, Zhou Yu chuckled, and put the Spirit Beast Pill back into the bag.
The Little White Fox seemed to understand something. It kept rubbing its head against Zhou Yu’s trouser leg, then let out two weak cries, as if saying it was wrong.
Only then did Zhou Yu nod, patted its little head, and said, “Every day, you eat my Grapes and tease my dogs. Now I want to feed you a Spirit Beast Pill, and you’re reluctant when I call you over. If you want to eat Spirit Beast Pills in the future, you must pay some price.”
The Little White Fox then stretched out its tongue and licked his hand. Its eyes remained tightly fixed on the bag in his hand. Although it couldn’t smell the scent anymore, it knew the thing was definitely placed inside.
Zhou Yu smiled, opened the bag, took out one Spirit Beast Pill from it, and placed it on his palm.
Seeing this Elixir, the Little White Fox excitedly rushed over and immediately ate it into its mouth.
Seeing this, Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao surrounded him, wagging their tails incessantly. Zhou Yu shook his head and said, “There’s none left for today. You can eat again tomorrow.”
He also very much wanted to directly feed them all the Spirit Beast Pills in one go, to let them increase their intelligence as quickly as possible. But even Uncle-Master Wu in the Immortal World could only feed the immortal crane daily, so he definitely could not do this either.
By now, it had been one or two hours since Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao ate the Spirit Beast Pill. Zhou Yu looked at them carefully and seemed to feel they were more lively than before. He then gave some commands. The reaction speed of Huzi, Dabao, and Xiaobao had all increased somewhat.
Sure enough, the Spirit Beast Pill was working. In the morning, he had counted them. There were a total of sixty-five pills in the bag. He had just fed three, so now there were sixty-two left.
Coincidentally, including the Little White Fox, there were four animals in his home. Each animal could be fed fifteen pills. He believed these fifteen Spirit Beast Pills would make them somewhat different.
By noon, after finishing lunch, the delivery guy called. Zhou Yu quickly rode his electric scooter and retrieved the package at lightning speed.
If Pan Deng and Black Muscle Jade Dew were noble and beautiful in his heart, then the Amber Jade Dew and White Snake Legend Jade Dew that arrived in this package were dreamlike and beautiful.
After getting the package and returning to the Old Family House, Zhou Yu couldn’t wait to open it. The four Jade Dew seedlings inside the box appeared before his eyes.
Even though they were just seedlings, these four Jade Dew also displayed dreamlike colors. Among them, the two Amber Jade Dew already showed some color variation on their surfaces. And that White Snake Legend Jade Dew had some leaves that had turned snow-white. It truly made one’s heart fill with fondness.
Judging from their condition and details, these four Jade Dew were exactly as the shop owner described, with no signs of being tissue-cultured.
Holding these four seedlings, he looked at the subsidiary Spirit Gathering Array, then glanced at the main array. Finally, he decided to first place these four seedlings into the main array. When it was time to propagate later, he would move some out into the subsidiary array.
There was still some space in the main array now. He could probably plant about ten more Jade Dew. More importantly, he wanted to quickly see what these two types of dreamlike Jade Dew would look like when they grew into mature plants.
