Chapter 332 Let me show you a treasure

Heisi was entirely black, including its eyes. It held a black toad in its small paws, its gaze vacant, appearing rather unintelligent.

Upon hearing Yu Zhibo's question, it tilted its head and replied, "Ever since our existence, our Black Snake clan and the Black Toad clan have been interdependent. This is due to a legend."

"A legend?"

"Yes!" the Black Snake nodded. "According to the information from our bloodline memory, our Black Snake clan has the potential to transform into dragons. To achieve this, we need to leap over the Dragon Gate. However, we don't have feet. So, by carrying a Black Toad, our Black Snake clan gains incredibly strong jumping abilities, allowing us to leap over the Dragon Gate!"

Yu Zhibo: "..."

He had a mouthful of unspoken words, unsure how to respond. After a long silence, Yu Zhibo finally inquired, "Then where is the Dragon Gate?"

A look of confusion appeared in the Black Snake's eyes. "I don't know~"

Yu Zhibo: "..."

He briefly checked Heisi's level, which was twenty-sixth tier. Then he looked at the Black Toad's level, twenty-third tier. Their auras showed signs of subtle fusion, suggesting some kind of symbiotic relationship.

"Well, let me know when you find the Dragon Gate. I've never seen a dragon transformation before!" Yu Zhibo said perfunctorily, putting it back into the light barrier.

His gaze swept across the beast horde. He noticed that these chaotic异兽 (yì shòu - exotic beasts) were all at relatively high levels and were bizarre in appearance. Many looked as if they had been subjected to nuclear radiation, exhibiting various deformities, giving a sense of a demonic dance.

Among them, the only one with a relatively high appearance was probably He Xiaoqi. When transformed into a little girl, she was exquisitely carved and adorably naive. When in her true form, she was also magnificent, elegant, and full of ethereal charm.

"Xiao Ying is also nearing B-rank. Given her restless nature, she might venture outside the Dragon Country for training soon. It would be good to have a guardian for her," Yu Zhibo mused, stroking his chin. He then summoned He Xiaoqi.

"Young Master, muah muah!" As soon as He Xiaoqi emerged, she excitedly tried to pounce on Yu Zhibo.

"Thump!" Yu Zhibo pressed her down and examined her carefully.

He Xiaoqi, who was originally only A-rank third tier, had now reached A-rank fourth tier after absorbing a small portion of the immortal energy and light spiritual energy provided by Yu Zhibo in the Pure Land space. Moreover, possibly due to her being a chaotic exotic beast, she felt significantly stronger than ordinary A3 ability users.

Furthermore, her personality was simple. She was usually cute, affectionate, and prone to talking nonsense, making her quite suitable as Yu Xiao Ying's pet.

"It just so happens that Xiao Ying's birthday is coming up, so this can be her gift. After all, He Xiaoqi can fly and run, and her flight speed is not slow. She's much more precious than a sports car."

Indeed, He Xiaoqi could already transform and had gained sentience. With proper training, she could become a high-end combat force for the Dragon Country. However, everyone had their selfish desires. He Xiaoqi had been reborn because of him, and she rightfully owed him a debt of gratitude.

"Xiao Qi, do you yearn for freedom?" Yu Zhibo asked her with a smile.

"What is freedom? I just want to stay by Young Master's side!" He Xiaoqi replied with a naive expression.

"Let me rephrase: do you want to have endless ice cream and cakes, play all sorts of games, and watch all kinds of movies?"

"Yes!" He Xiaoqi's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yu Zhibo nodded with satisfaction. It seemed his efforts during this period were not in vain. To help these exotic beasts integrate into Earth culture as quickly as possible, he not only instilled them with memories of Earth's information but also provided them with mobile phones, tablets, and various electronic devices. He also supplied them with various delicacies regularly, causing these exotic beasts to become almost like couch potatoes.

For them, such a life was like a dream.

Yu Zhibo said, "Since you want it, will you protect my sister for me? The duration of protection... you will gain your freedom once her rank completely matches yours!"

"Okay!" He Xiaoqi readily agreed. She still didn't know what freedom was, but she genuinely wanted to have endless food and endless games.

Yu Zhibo nodded, took out his phone to browse the Shenhua app for products, and found contract-related items.

[Beast Taming Contract: This contract is made from the flesh and blood of the A-rank Eternal Night creature, Fayan Beast. It can be used to sign a contract with demonic beasts. The contract takes effect immediately upon its establishment and is automatically destroyed upon its termination.

Origin: Kyoto Supernatural Research Institute.

Price: 800,000 Merit Points.

Note: Mind control users may experience conflicts with their core sequence and require guidance from a law-level or higher ability user. This contract is automatically dissolved when either party to the contract reaches the law level.]

"This is it!" Yu Zhibo decided after glancing at the product description.

As more and more creatures from the Eternal Night world descended, numerous creatures with bizarre abilities also appeared. Among them was the Fayan Beast, a creature with a square face, cat ears, and a single horn on its head. Its ability was "words become law," making it a crucial and very precious material for producing contract scrolls.

After Yu Zhibo reserved a purchase, he suddenly remembered Chen Bo.

"Brother Bo's ability is to stab himself, but there are no healing-type abilities among these exotic beasts. I'll pass!"

Yu Zhibo hesitated for a moment before deciding not to equip Chen Bo with a guardian beast. He knew Chen Bo too well; this guy was truly reckless. If he knew he had an A-rank guardian beast, he would probably dare to confront enemies of A10 level head-on.

"But it's not appropriate to give him nothing. It's better to give him a life-saving charm," Yu Zhibo thought, and soon made a decision.

The Cycle of Life and Death Talisman, a Taoist product, recently released. It is refined using the Yellow Springs water from the Underworld as a medium. It can bring the dead back to life and, when connected with a teleportation talisman, can heal severe injuries and death instantaneously, returning the user to a designated location.

It's essentially like respawning at a spring.

Although it is only effective for ability users below A-rank, due to its powerful function, its market price is one million merit points, fully embodying the preciousness of life.

However, these merit points were mere trifles for Yu Zhibo. He had no idea how many merit points he possessed, only that he truly couldn't spend them all.

"Right, and my parents. Although they are now living in the supposedly absolutely safe Kyoto Supernatural City, it's better to be safe than sorry. It won't cost much in merit points anyway."

With that thought, he selected a large number of heavenly materials, earthly treasures, and magical artifacts suitable for ordinary people, placed the order, and waited for the delivery.

With the public disclosure of the supernatural, the number of teleportation arrays in the country increased, which also represented rapid progress in logistics. Generally, if expedited shipping was chosen on the Shenhua app, delivery could be made within half an hour.

Not long after, Yu Zhibo quietly waited. Just then, a discussion suddenly erupted from downstairs.

"Xiao Ying, hehe, brother found a treasure today, it's definitely useful for you!"

"What treasure?" Yu Xiao Ying's confused voice was heard.
