Chapter 23: Organizing the Harvest

  Wang Tao had no memory of how he returned to the tree hole, but when he woke up, he found himself already inside. Moreover, he was lying naked on a small patch of white fur, and the fragrant beast was nowhere to be seen.

  "This is amazing!" Wang Tao, who had just woken up, looked at the scene in front of him with a solemn expression. "In addition to being able to recover from internal and external injuries extremely well, it also has a great deal of help for spiritual recovery and growth. Moreover, one's cultivation is also quietly improving, slowly and steadily!"

  Unaware of its name and specific function, Wang Tao furrowed his brow slightly, attempting to identify it.

  Marrow (Yellow, can be synthesized)

  Type: Ground Treasure

  Year: One drop per year

  Rating: Five Stars

  "It's actually a fifth-grade treasure!" Looking at the identified attribute introduction, it was even higher than the essence of Thunderstruck Wood, Thunderstruck Heart, by one level. Wang Tao was extremely shocked, his expression somewhat dull as he stared at what was in front of him.

  Genius treasures of this kind all have their own evaluation methods, although they are still divided into nine grades, but each grade corresponds to the same level of ordinary items that are unknown how many times more precious! Fifth-grade treasure can absolutely correspond to seventh-grade medicinal materials among ordinary items!

  Ordinary medicinal materials must reach two thousand years or more and five thousand years or less to be considered as having reached the seventh rank, it can be said that they are extremely rare and precious cultivation resources in the world. Once born, they will inevitably cause countless forces to compete for this treasure! And yet, this life marrow is comparable to a seventh-rank medicinal material, one can imagine its preciousness!

  "This thing is so precious, the fragrance beast must know, but let me lie in it and absorb it freely..." Wang Tao didn't know that he had already taken this life marrow once when he was injured last time. At this moment, a strange warmth appeared, and Wang Tao did not greedily stay in the life marrow, but got up and left. After all, such things are precious beyond measure, and using them well is absolutely a lifesaving treasure! In addition to being used to save lives, Wang Tao can also use it to synthesize some things, which will be incredibly useful for him in the future."

  Without lingering, he put on a black Taoist robe in the Butcher's Gate, tied his black hair back with a strip of cloth, and silently came to the place where he had previously refined himself, sitting cross-legged.

  "This injury is too severe, it can't be recovered in just ten days or half a month. It seems that I won't be able to improve my actual combat experience during this period of time. However, I can learn some useful spells, including the 'Body and Soul Scripture', 'Capturing Immortal Record', 'Fate Heavenly Sword', 'Heavenly Sword Guard' and that mysterious fist technique are all available for me to practice and get familiar with..."

  After making up his mind, Wang Tao closed his eyes and began to sort out the gains from this battle!

  First and foremost is combat experience. Wang Tao knew that the greatest gain from this battle was still the inadequacies of himself found during the battle, as well as the shortcomings and areas that needed to be supplemented!

  "Firstly, my ability to utilize true energy is extremely lacking! Otherwise, this battle should have been much easier and I wouldn't have suffered such severe injuries. It seems that the techniques in 'The Heavenly Slaying Record' still need to be learned."

  Secondly, I lack too many attacking methods! If this attack defense or other means were more numerous, the battle would be half the effort. Moreover, I only learned a half-baked "Destiny Heaven Sword", which is an unhelpful ultimate skill that cannot be used normally, and learning that mysterious fist method has become a must.

  Thirdly, I still underestimated the terror of this world's cultivators! Even if it's a demonic beast or a fierce beast, they are not to be trifled with and should be treated with caution. If it wasn't for my luck, I would have been blown to pieces by the wild dog's first magic attack. Underestimating the fierce beast, did I also underestimate the danger of humans in this world? After all, humans are even more terrifying than fierce beasts...

  Fourth, the principle of the lion pouncing on the rabbit I must remember! Don't relax your vigilance just because the enemy appears weak, that wild dog still has a killer move left to use, but I wasn't prepared. Although there aren't many creatures like this one that can use sacrifice from birth, my own problems are something I have to face head-on!

  While silently recalling, Wang Tao muttered to himself. Every time he discovered his own problems, he would say it out loud, letting himself remember it in his heart, and also as a warning to himself! He sorted out all the gains from this battle and engraved them in his mind, making sure not to forget the lessons. This was the rule Wang Tao had just set for himself, which he absolutely could not forget whether he was weak or strong, unless there were no more enemies in the world, otherwise it would be abolished!

  "The spoils of battle are just these, and the corpse of that ferocious beast. These are very practical and important for me now!" As he thought this in his heart, Wang Tao waved his hand and threw out the corpse of the wild dog-like ferocious beast.

  "Boom..."

  The body lay on the ground, blood still wet, and the loud noise that rose at this time also stirred up a wave in this quiet space.

  "This ferocious wild dog's defense is quite good, and it's also an earth-attribute beast. Its fur can be made into armor with excellent defensive capabilities, which can add some security to one's life! Moreover, its sharp claws are extremely hard and can be used as the sharp thorns on a fist weapon, which will have an extraordinary effect!"

  Thinking of this, Wang Tao didn't hesitate, took out the nameless knife, and stripped off the wild dog's ferocious beast's skin and claws, preparing to make use of them all!

  "Ah! I've heard that every fierce beast and demon beast has an attribute crystal core in their body, a cultivation resource similar to spirit stones in terms of usage frequency!" Just as Wang Tao was about to put away the beast's skin and sharp claws for food storage, he suddenly thought of something. He quickly began dissecting it...

  After about half a short period of time, Wang Tao's hands paused slightly, and his eyes flashed with a sharp light!

  "Really!" He withdrew his hand from the beast's brain and found that he had obtained a thumb-sized, yellowish-brown crystal stone!

  This crystal is the evil beast's demon crystal!

  Yaojing, this is a special item unique to fierce beasts and demon beasts of this class. For cultivation, it's similar to ling stones in terms of cultivation materials. However, aside from these uses, the most important thing about yaojing is that they all have attributes, which can be used for alchemy and equipment refinement, making them incredibly versatile and one of the most popular cultivation resources! If sold in a cultivation market, it should still fetch a pretty good price, at the very least more valuable than second-grade medicinal materials...

  "I just don't know if this demon crystal can synthesize items that will increase my abilities. If it can...!" With a sudden thought, Wang Tao immediately came up with a possibility and hastily threw out an appraisal!

  Desert Wolf Beast Crystal (Red, Synthesizable)

  Type: Common Crystal

  Energy: 27

  Attribute: Earth

  Evaluation: First-class goods...

  Ps: Come on, why is it just hovering around 15th or 16th place in the new book rankings? Is it that hard to make a breakthrough? Don't be cold-blooded, I need everyone's encouragement to burst out! Alright, Xianzong knows that he has written well and won't worry about those unnecessary things. Let's just say Xianzong casually farted and everyone can continue reading while I focus on writing seriously, striving to make everyone applaud and support enthusiastically! (Just imagine it's fine...)
