164: Chapter 164 A dog that has reached the golden elixir perfection?

Wang Bin rummaged through their Storage Pouches and couldn't help but gasp, "How are there only 70,000 Medium Grade Spirit Stones and about a hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones?

Are Golden Core cultivators all this poor, or am I just too rich?"

There were only two Magic Treasures in total; one Low Grade defensive Spiritual Artifact had been riddled with holes by his Kings Sword, its spirituality long gone, making it scrap and only worth the Materials.

There was also a Medium Grade Magical Artifact Flying Sword, a common Flying Sword Magical Artifact.

As for Yin Bi's Lifebound Treasure, he didn't find it; he likely hadn't refined one.

There were over a dozen Spiritual Artifacts and Magical Artifacts, but to Wang Bin, these things were useless and difficult to sell without inviting trouble.

The remaining more valuable items were some Cultivation resources used by Golden Core cultivators, such as three bottles of Golden Yuan Pills, over a hundred drops of Spirit Liquid, and surprisingly, over a dozen century-old Spirit Medicines, which seemed to have been found in Eagle King's Storage Pouch.

There were many other miscellaneous items, but they weren't worth much.

The Jade Slips contained Yin Bi's Cultivation Technique and Spells, but they were all common Cultivation Techniques available in the School, nothing special.

"It seems Yin Bi didn't do so well; he's so poor. I really don't know how he Breakthrough to the Middle Stage of Golden Core."

Wang Bin muttered, "The most valuable thing should be Yin Bi's Golden Core, but unfortunately, it's earth-attributed, which is not very useful to me.

However, it could be refined into a False Core, allowing a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to become a False Core Cultivator, but I don't know the refining method, and this practice is somewhat inhumane, and it would give me a bad reputation if it got out."

A so-called False Core Cultivator is a Foundation Establishment Cultivator who, when Breakthrough is hopeless, swallows a specially refined Golden Core, allowing it to enter their Dantian, and it must be of the same attribute.

This way, the Foundation Establishment Cultivator can possess a Golden Core, and this Golden Core will gradually transform the Foundation Establishment Cultivator's Physical Body, granting him a Lifespan of five hundred years.

But since it's not a Golden Core cultivated by oneself, it cannot fully unleash the power of a Golden Core, and it certainly won't be a match for a Golden Core cultivator who Breakthrough normally.

However, a False Core Cultivator is much more powerful in combat than a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and their Lifespan is also longer.

Therefore, the price of a Golden Core is extremely expensive; which Foundation Establishment Cultivator could refuse five hundred years of Lifespan?

However, once one becomes a False Core Cultivator, Breakthrough is basically hopeless for this life, remaining at the Golden Core Stage forever.

All in all, these items combined could probably sell for 500,000 Medium Grade Spirit Stones.

"This is the sorrow of Golden Core cultivators. While alive, they always lack Spirit Stones, but after death, their Physical Body becomes more valuable.

No wonder robbery can't be stopped no matter how much it's forbidden. Killing and plundering is much faster for Spirit Stones than doing other tasks; it's practically getting rich overnight."

Wang Bin thought this to himself, and for a moment, he was tempted.

He weighed the Kings Sword in his hand, thinking:

"With this spear, killing Golden Core cultivators is like slicing melons and dicing vegetables; it's basically one shot, one kill.

Even a common Golden Core cultivator should have a Magic Treasure on him, plus all his belongings, and his Physical Body and Golden Core; selling them for 200,000 Medium Grade Spirit Stones should be no problem.

Just ten or eight robberies, and all the Cultivation resources I need for the Golden Core Stage will be covered."

However, after much thought, Wang Bin still gave up on this idea.

Such unprovoked killing and plundering did not align with his principles; he was not a person who indiscriminately killed the innocent.

Moreover, the risk was too great. Who knew if there were Nascent Soul Cultivators pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, or fishing for prey!

One slip-up while robbing would be the end.

Besides, he wasn't actually short on Spirit Stones. Even if he obtained many Cultivation resources, it would still take decades to Cultivate to Golden Core Perfection.

After careful consideration, Wang Bin decided to continue on the Family Cultivation path.

He spent tens of thousands of Medium Grade Spirit Stones to buy a Magical Artifact that could conceal his aura in West Sea City—a Snow Fox Cape.

That's right, it was still a Snow Fox Cape; Snow Fox fur had the best concealment effect.

It seemed the Snow Fox clan wasn't having an easy time; their fur was being stripped to make capes.

Logically speaking, if the Snow Fox clan transformed into human form, they would definitely be stunning beauties capable of toppling kingdoms. He wondered how people could bring themselves to do it.

After all preparations were complete, Wang Bin began to traverse the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

He had checked the map beforehand and knew that within five thousand li of the Demon Beast Mountain Range near White Cloud City, there were no Nascent Soul Demon Emperors.

This was also why he dared to traverse it; otherwise, he wouldn't dare to seek death.

After arranging matters in White Cloud City, Wang Bin took four Kings Swords and dozens of spare bullets and set off.

The straight-line distance from White Cloud City to the sea was only two thousand li. With a Golden Core cultivator's Escape Speed, it would normally take only a few hours to fly across.

But Wang Bin didn't dare to fly at full speed in the Demon Beast Mountain Range. He restrained his aura, put on the Snow Fox Cape, and carefully moved through the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

The edges of the Demon Beast Mountain Range were filled with wild beasts and low-level Yao Beasts. After entering five hundred li, the Yao Beasts encountered were basically all second-order, but Wang Bin didn't attack these Yao Beasts.

When he delved a thousand meters deep, the Spiritual Qi in the Demon Beast Mountain Range became much denser.

Just as he was about to continue forward, he discovered that ahead was the territory of a Golden Core Perfection Demon King.

Wang Bin knew this because there was a puddle of urine under a tree ahead, emitting the aura of Golden Core Perfection, which was how a Demon King marked its territory.

In this situation, he definitely had to bypass the Demon King's territory. He continued to detour a hundred li to the left, but he could still feel the marked aura of this Golden Core Demon King.

"This situation isn't quite right. Generally, a Golden Core Demon King wouldn't have such a large territory, would it?"

Wang Bin muttered to himself, only able to continue detouring.

Suddenly, he sensed a Golden Core Perfection aura approaching him. Wang Bin quickly hid, covering himself tightly with the Snow Fox Cape, concealing the Spiritual Qi fluctuations on his body.

Soon after, a Golden Core Perfection Big Yellow Dog appeared in his sight.

"This... isn't this just the Big Yellow Dog from my old home!"

Wang Bin's eyes widened. Although this Yao Beast emitted the aura of Golden Core Perfection and was ten feet tall,

its yellowish-brown fur and characteristic tongue-lolling action were exactly like the Big Yellow Dog he had raised when he was a child, especially the way it lifted a hind leg to urinate and mark its territory; it was absolutely spot-on.

Just then, the Big Yellow Dog's nose twitched, and it immediately turned its head to look at where Wang Bin was hiding, and it spoke in human words:

"Woof woof! Human, don't hide, I found you!"

This startled Wang Bin. He had clearly used the Snow Fox Cape to perfectly conceal his aura and Spiritual Qi fluctuations, so how was he discovered at first sight?

Since he was discovered, Wang Bin wasn't afraid. He calmly lifted the Snow Fox Cape and slowly revealed himself.

Seeing Wang Bin appear, the Big Yellow Dog smiled contemptuously and said:

"A mere Golden Core Stage Cultivator, daring to sneak into my territory. Do you want to steal my treasure?

I am a Qilin Sacred Beast, a Disciple under Great Sage Pingtian, the leader of the Zhong Sheng Sect. Today, I'm in a good mood and don't want to eat people.

Sign this Reincarnation Contract, and you'll live a life of luxury following me from now on!"

After speaking, the Big Yellow Dog proudly raised its head to look at the sky, but its eyes secretly observed Wang Bin's reaction.

Wang Bin was indeed shocked. This Big Yellow Dog was too similar to the Big Yellow Dog he had raised for over ten years when he was a child.

Its movements, its expressions, besides being able to speak and being a bit larger, it was simply his own Big Yellow Dog!

So, he subconsciously blurted out, "Big Yellow Dog, sit!"

The Big Yellow Dog immediately sat down on the ground, wagging its tail at Wang Bin, but it quickly reacted:

"Woof woof, bah! Awoo!

Damn human, you've successfully angered me! Awoo!"
