Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet

#177 - The formless demon!

Just as Gu Yuan was thinking about borrowing a few books on alchemy to study, a crisp "ding-ling" sound rang outside the door.

Although this sound was a bit sudden, it was not abrupt, carrying a sense of reminder and inquiry.

This meant someone outside was asking if they could come in.

Gu Yuan certainly knew what was going on.

With a flick of his finger, the door of the training room opened.

Qiu Zhi and Qiu Yue entered one after the other, carrying food boxes, wine, spiritual fruits, and other items.

"Senior Brother Gu!"

The two women bowed and then arranged the medicinal cuisine from the food boxes one by one.

Four medicinal dishes.

They were Assorted Three-Color Chicken, Jade Belt Pearl Soup, Crispy Sesame Rolls, and Steamed Red Carp.

The four medicinal dishes were steaming hot, with a perfect color, aroma, and taste, making people's appetites increase at a glance.

The main ingredient of the Assorted Three-Color Chicken was a unique Three-Color Chicken from the Great Snow Mountain in the Northwest, which fed on grass seeds, spiritual herbs, and strange insects, and had the effect of clearing the five worms and nourishing vitality.

What's even more wonderful is that the meat of this spiritual bird is very delicious, making people unable to stop.

Prepared by a master chef with corresponding ingredients and spiritual herbs, after cooking, it perfectly retained the original flavor of the ingredients, and even made it even better.

Jade Belt Pearl Soup is made from the seeds of a kind of pearl fruit spiritual herb, cooked after processing, with a smooth, soft, and glutinous taste, and rich in spirituality.

Crispy Sesame Rolls are the simplest, but they are also made by grinding spiritual grains into flour, mixing them into a paste, frying them into pancakes, rolling them with spiritual melon shreds and honey sauce, and deep-frying them in black pork oil.

Finally, there is the Steamed Red Carp, which is a variant Red Carp fish that grows in the spiritual spring, and has a certain effect of cleansing the marrow, which can promote the marrow cleansing progress of innate martial artists.

After simple and careful cooking, the taste is delicious, making people want to bite off their tongues.

These spiritual meals, paired with a bowl of top-quality Jade Essence Rice, with each grain of rice crystal clear as jade, exuding an attractive aroma of rice, were incomparable to Gu Yuan's various banquets in his previous life.

Eating one meal not only greatly benefits cultivation but also maintains the daily needs of a Heaven-Human Realm cultivator for three to five days.

The spiritual stones spent on just this one spiritual meal would be enough to make ordinary rogue cultivators envious and bankrupt.

And this is just a small banquet that Gu Yuan, as an inner disciple, can enjoy once every half a month.

As for his daily meals, they are only slightly inferior to this.

This kind of enjoyment, coupled with the service of two beautiful maids, is much better than a person cultivating bitterly in a secret room, swallowing Jade Essence Pills.

Why do so many rogue cultivators in the cultivation world yearn to join the great cultivation sects?

Isn't it because after joining the great cultivation sects, they can obtain various conveniences and benefits?

Not to mention the True Methods of Entering the Dao, not to mention the protection of the sect, just the daily food, clothing, and monthly benefits are enough to supply the daily cultivation needs of a cultivator.

But what about rogue cultivators?

Every spiritual stone, every Grain Avoidance Pill, must be painstakingly and painstakingly accumulated and earned.

The world's resources are limited, and cultivation is even more about fighting for life with the heavens.

These cultivation resources are the key for cultivators to cultivate longevity step by step.

However, the vast majority of cultivation resources that have already been collected in this world are controlled by those great cultivation sects and cultivation families.

For these cultivation resources, and for more convenience, joining a great cultivation sect is the best way out.

Of course, Gu Yuan was able to enjoy such food and drink because of his victory in the gambling fight with Liu Xinjun before.

Even Xia Xiuxue and Niu Youde, who are also inner disciples, are still eating Jade Essence Pills now.

Although they are both inner disciples, and their names have been recorded, the three of them have not yet entered Medicine King Mountain and have not worshipped the ancestral master, so strictly speaking, they are not yet considered inner disciples.

But Gu Yuan is different, he has already proved his status and identity with his strength.

With his cultivation, supernatural powers, and the talent he has shown, who would dare not recognize his identity?

Medicine King Mountain would be stupid to reject such a disciple.

Moreover, there is also True Person He Ling, a big shot, endorsing him, so what if he eats and drinks a little? Who would dare to have an opinion?

Gu Yuan tore open the tender skin of the Assorted Three-Color Chicken with his chopsticks, and a rich aroma mixed with it immediately overflowed, making people drool.

Gu Yuan picked up a chopstick of meat and was about to eat, but his movements froze, and he suddenly stopped.

Seeing this, Qiu Zhi asked strangely, "What's wrong? Does Senior Brother think the taste of this dish is not good?"

"Without tasting it, how can I talk about the taste being good?"

Gu Yuan smiled slightly: "I'm just curious, what is your true identity, Qiu Zhi?"

Qiu Zhi was a little strange when she heard this, with a blank expression, with a hint of vigilance: "Senior Brother Gu, what do you mean by this?"

Qiu Yue's face changed slightly, and she instinctively smelled a dangerous aura.

She instinctively approached her good friend Qiu Zhi, but she stopped moving because Gu Yuan's words just now clearly said that there was a problem with Qiu Zhi's identity.

"In the Demonic Path, there are some demonic cultivators who are good at sacrificing and refining demon heads, such as the Seventy-Two Manifested Divine Demons, the Thirty-Six Unmanifested Divine Demons, and the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Red Dust Demons, the Nine Sons Mother Ghost Divine Demons, the White Bone Heavenly Demons, etc."

Gu Yuan didn't seem to see the reactions of the two and talked eloquently:

"The Demonic Path has always been mysterious and strange. There is a kind of demon head called the Formless Yin Demon, which, after being sacrificed and refined with various distracting thoughts and desires, is formless and intangible, but also strange and unpredictable, and can lurk in the human body, making it difficult to detect."

"When necessary, it will steal a person's thoughts, memories, and even gradually replace a person from the root."

"In the cultivation world, it is not uncommon for some cultivators to undergo a great change in temperament after a retreat, or their behavior is abnormal, or a dead person suddenly comes back to life, because they have been possessed by the Yin Demon."

Saying that, Gu Yuan looked at Qiu Zhi, who was slender and beautiful in front of him, with a trace of pity in his eyes:

"Of course you are you, but you are no longer you. Because a Formless Yin Demon has lurked in your soul, stealing your thoughts and memories. The current you is just a layer of skin of that Formless Yin Demon."

"Ah?!"

As soon as Gu Yuan said this, it was shocking, and Qiu Yue next to her trembled, and the wine pot fell to the ground, splashing wine everywhere.

Qiu Yue herself was even more frightened, her face pale, and she took a few steps back.

Looking at Qiu Zhi, and then looking at Gu Yuan, for a while, she was trembling, frightened and panicked, at a loss.

Qiu Zhi smiled reluctantly and said: "Senior Brother Gu, don't joke with me anymore..."

"On this floating dragon boat, there is Ancestor Ku Mu sitting here, so what kind of Yin Demon Divine Demon can lurk in here?"

But Qiu Zhi didn't realize when she said this that there were a few cracks on her forehead at this time, like wounds, more like closed eyes.

At this time, these eyes were wriggling slightly under the skin, as if the eyeballs under the eyelids were rolling around, but Qiu Zhi herself did not notice any clues.

Qiu Yue next to her was so frightened that she couldn't speak, her face was as pale as paper, but she also instinctively approached Gu Yuan two steps.

She now began to believe Gu Yuan's words.
