Beast Taming: Sharing Pets' Abilities

Chapter 175: Pill Spirit Talent – Ever-Changing Morphs


[Thousand-Change Pill Spirit (Red)]

Introduction: It is a peculiar cluster of primordial qi gathered from the essence of thousands of Spirit Medicines and Spirit Pills, born with a strand of Creation Qi, the spiritual life has an exceptionally keen sense for the properties of Spirit Medicines and Spirit Pills, as well as their transformations. It possesses strong abilities to regulate medicinal properties and certain fire control capabilities.

Its spirituality is abundant, possessing some faint wisdom.

To evolve into the "Myriad-Transformation Pill Spirit," it needs to absorb the essence of ten thousand Spirit Pills and Spirit Medicines to mature, consuming 12,000 Dao Rhyme Points.

Status: Hungry

Phase: Growth Stage (38%)

...

[You have received the Pill Spirit Talent "Thousand-Change" blessing!]

...

"Thousand-Change?"

Gu Yuan raised an eyebrow.

This name puzzled him somewhat; if the Thousand-Change Pill Spirit continues to evolve, it would transform into the Myriad-Transformation Pill Spirit.

Combining the two names, it becomes Thousand-Change Myriad-Transformation.

The term Thousand-Change Myriad-Transformation itself means innumerable transformations.

But what does it mean for the Pill Spirit's talent to be named this way?

Could it be that the Pill Spirit's talent lies in its ability to change into various forms?

In the cultivation realm, there is indeed a Divine Technique of this nature, and it is at the level of Great Divine Power.

It's said that only those at the Primordial Spirit True Immortal Level can master this technique, similar to the seventy-two transformations of the mythical Monkey King from Gu Yuan's previous life.

But Gu Yuan doesn't believe a Pill Spirit could possess such a Divine Technique.

One condenses medicinal properties, the other is multifarious.

They don't match at all, right?

It's like hearing that a thousand-year-old black pig spirit transformed into a human with captivating beauty; who would believe that?

But that was just a fleeting thought for him.

Because next, Gu Yuan sensed some changes occurring within him.

More precisely, there seemed to be a unique transformation in his mind and even his Divine Soul.

This change was subtle, like silent drizzle, making Gu Yuan feel he had a special sensing towards certain things.

For example, a decorative Snow Spoon Orchid in the corner of the room. Just by scanning it with his Divine Thought and smelling its fragrance, Gu Yuan gained a sudden insight into its medicinal properties, characteristics, and uses.

Simultaneously, combining the knowledge from a few basic alchemy books he had read, more ideas surfaced in his mind.

"The medicinal properties of the Snow Spoon Orchid are not complex, capable of calming the mind and clearing impurities. Its properties include cold, heat, sinking, floating, clarity, turbidity, elevation, descent, fragrance, and offensiveness."

"Among these, sinking, turbidity, and heat are in the minority, while clear and elevating properties are in the majority."

"Medicine King Mountain cultivates Snow Spoon Orchids mainly to cleanse impurities and purify spiritual qi. It can also be used to refine Purifying Heart Pills and Heart-Sinking Powder, just by removing useless impurities and medicinal properties, leaving the useful ones to be combined with other Spirit Medicines."

"During alchemy, the cooperation and conflicts among various medicinal properties are most crucial; refining their essence is not as difficult..."

"The leaves of Snow Spoon Orchid, however, are predominantly hot, occupying ninety percent... However, there are also a dozen other medicinal properties... Most alchemists would likely burn these other properties as impurities."

Thinking this way, Gu Yuan pondered:

"It turns out this Thousand-Change Talent isn't much related to any Divine Techniques but grants me a special ability to sense and grasp the medicinal properties of Spirit Medicine and their changes during alchemy..."

The Alchemy Scripture states: "Spirit Pills are transformations of primordial qi; primordial qi is also medicinal properties; only through changes of yin and yang do they become Spirit Pills."

As long as one masters the classified nature, changes, and interconnections of primordial qi, the secret of the Alchemy Dao is naturally grasped.

"Indeed, this Pill Spirit is truly a living being with a special talent for alchemy. Its talent is an extraordinary gift from the heavens; no ordinary cultivator could possibly obtain such an ability..."

Gu Yuan, in high spirits, thought: "Thanks to the Spirit Pet System, I can acquire this talent!"

"With the Thousand-Change Talent, I'll surely learn alchemy swiftly, and refining pills will likely become a second nature..."

Alchemy talent is different from cultivation talent.

For cultivation talent, merely possessing various Spiritual Bodies and Dao Bodies guarantees one's progress won't be slow.

As for alchemy talent... you're either talented or not; it's like math problems—without enlightenment, forcing oneself to study won't work.

As for the Pill Spirit, it transformed into a tiny colorful humanoid, about three inches tall, standing dazedly on Gu Yuan's shoulder, looking at his giant face.

Gu Yuan took out a Jade Essence Pill and tossed it to it.

"Chirp chirp... chirp chirp!"

The Pill Spirit was instantly ecstatic, chirping and making soft, childish sounds, clutching the Jade Essence Pill like a treasure, gaping its mouth wide, and swallowing it in one go, causing its belly to swell.

Then Gu Yuan noticed that the status bar for the Pill Spirit, which had indicated hunger, now read normal.

Indeed, being formed from the essence of various Spirit Medicines and Spirit Pills, its food consists of Spirit Pills or Spirit Medicines.

Moreover, the Spirit Pet System states that to evolve into Myriad-Transformation Pill Spirit, it needs to continue absorbing the essence of various unknown Spirit Medicines.

Once it gathers over ten thousand kinds, with a certain consumption of Dao Rhyme Points, it can advance to Myriad-Transformation Pill Spirit.

Compared to this Pill Spirit with the Thousand-Change Talent, it should have stronger talents indeed!

Gu Yuan held it in his palm: "Since your body is colorful and your original form can transform into a cloud-like Spiritual Light, I'll call you Cai Yun from now on."

Cai Yun slightly leans towards a feminine name, but as Pill Spirits are genderless, being creations of heaven and earth, the name is fitting.

After teasing the Pill Spirit named Cai Yun for a while, Gu Yuan placed it aside to play with Xiao Qing.

Now, Gu Yuan has six Spirit Pets.

These Spirit Pets, except for Xiao Qing, are all quite extraordinary, each with its unique abilities.

However, currently, most of his Spirit Pets, except Xiao Qing, must remain hidden.

Even with his status as a disciple of Medicine King Mountain, they cannot be exposed.

Because these Spirit Pets are his trump cards and protective amulets.

And as a trump card, they mustn't be revealed easily; they cannot be known by others.

Therefore, Gu Yuan has been considering a particular issue.

To create a separate identity, a guise renowned for taming Spirit Beasts and Spiritual Insects, unrelated to "Gu Yuan," yet having tamed several rare Spirit Beasts and Demons.

Only then can he publicly reveal these Spirit Pets, ensuring that any implications won't affect the Medicine King Mountain disciple "Gu Yuan."

In any case, Gu Yuan's harvest this time is quite fruitful.

Not only has his Sword Dao Talent significantly enhanced, but he also obtained the strange Thousand-Change Talent due to the Pill Spirit Cai Yun.

"Hmm, this afternoon, I should borrow a few Elixir Books to read..."
