Gold Aries.
The Jinyang Mountain Range is located in the southeastern part of Jinyang Star. It stretches for hundreds of millions of miles and is composed of more than 100,000 large and small peaks. The peaks are competing for beauty, rugged rocks, and towering ancient trees.
Looking down from the sky, the Jinyang Mountain Range looks like an antelope lying on the ground, hence the name.
This is the Zhao family's ancestral land and is heavily guarded.
More than twenty members of the Zhao family were on patrol, each standing on the back of a giant red eagle. Their faces were filled with pride. Leading them was a well-shaped woman in a golden skirt, Zhao Yirong, who was in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
Zhao Yirong led the team on patrol. A red light appeared in the distant sky at an extremely fast speed.
Zhao Yirong waved her hand, and the tribesmen stopped one after another.
Not long after, the red light stopped, revealing a red square beast cart with a Vermillion Bird pattern on its surface.
Han Changming, Ye Xin and Ye Xue stood on it, while Han Zhangxiang and others returned to Xuanyang Star.
Speaking of which, this is Han Changming's first time to Jinyang Star.
The Han family and the Zhao family are in-laws. Strictly speaking, the Han family is a subsidiary force of the Zhao family. It is good to take shelter under a big tree. With the protection of the Zhao family, the Han family has gained many conveniences and saved a lot of trouble.
Han Changming came here this time not only to get closer to the Zhao family, but also to sell a Nine-Roar Beast spirit beast egg to the Zhao family in exchange for resources for cultivating immortals.
With the financial resources of the Han family, there is no way to cultivate the two Nine-Roar Beasts to the sixth level. Of course, the main reason is that Yang Yuxian also got a spirit beast egg. In this way, there is no guarantee that the Seven Swords Sect will not come to cause trouble one day. Selling it to the Zhao family can both show goodwill and exchange for resources for cultivating immortals.
The Han family is in urgent need of Dharma materials and treasures to overcome tribulations.
The resources that can be exchanged for a spirit beast egg are limited, and the main purpose is to bring people closer together. The Zhao family is not considered when there are benefits, but is considered when there are troubles. The Zhao family may not necessarily help solve them.
"Junior Zhao Yirong, nice to meet Senior Han."
When Zhao Yirong saw Han Changming, she quickly saluted.
The Zhao family married into the Han family mainly because of Han Changming's alchemy skills. Zhao Yirong had seen Han Changming's portrait and recognized him at a glance.
"Friend Zhao, please tell me that I need to meet with the head of your Zhao family and I have something urgent to report."
Han Changming said politely.
"Senior Han, please wait a moment. I will report right away."
Zhao Yirong agreed, took out a red communication disk, typed in a spell, and made some gestures.
After a while, Zhao Yirong put away the communication disk and said respectfully, "Senior Han, the head of the family wants to see you. Please follow me. You continue patrolling."
"yes."
The members of the Zhao family agreed one after another and drove the spirit birds to fly away. Zhao Yirong pinched her fingers and the giant red eagle flapped its wings gently and flew away.
The Suzaku flying car lit up with a dazzling red light and chased after it.
Not long after, the Suzaku flying chariot arrived deep in the Jinyang Mountains. Among the mountains and ridges, many buildings could be seen, including exquisite pavilions and palaces, and simple wooden and stone houses.
They can see a large number of immortal cultivators, from the Qi Refining stage to the Void Refining stage, some riding spirit birds to travel, some driving flying treasures, and some riding on clouds.
They followed Zhao Yirong to a mountain that towered into the clouds. On the top of the mountain was a bluestone square covering an area of ten thousand acres. There were many buildings on the square. Directly in front of it was a magnificent palace with a plaque with three large characters "Yingxian Palace" inscribed on it.
Han Changming made a hand gesture and the Suzaku flying chariot landed on the ground. The couple and their two companions got off the chariot and put it away.
They followed Zhao Yirong into the Yingxian Hall. As soon as they sat down, a young and beautiful maid in a golden dress came in holding a golden tray with three golden teacups on it.
"Senior, please have some tea and sit for a while. The head of the family will be here soon."
Zhao Yirong said enthusiastically.
The maid put down the spiritual tea, bowed and left.
Han Changming picked up the teacup, lifted the lid, and a rich floral fragrance wafted into his nose.
Han Changming took a sip of the tea and felt the fragrance and sweetness lingering in his mouth. As the tea went down his throat, a cool feeling rose in his abdomen, quickly spread and rushed straight to his forehead, making him feel refreshed and all his fatigue disappeared.
“Good tea!”
Han Changming praised and took a big sip.
Ye Xin and Ye Xue also took a big sip, put down their teacups, and waited quietly.
"Haha, I've heard that Mr. Han is a very handsome man. I finally get to meet him in person."
A bold male voice sounded.
As soon as he finished speaking, a red light flew in and landed in front of Han Changming.
The escaping light faded, revealing a tall old man in a red robe. The old man had a square face, a dignified look, bright eyes, and exuded an aura as vast as the ocean.
The head of the Zhao family, Zhao Yulong, is a cultivator in the early stage of fusion.
The Zhao family has a long heritage and profound foundation. The head of the family is a figurehead, who is a combined cultivator. He only needs to give orders on weekdays, and the elders of the family will handle specific matters.
The head of the Han family is in the Spirit Transformation stage, while the head of the Zhao family is in the Fusion stage. This shows how big the gap between the two families is.
"Junior Han Changming (Ye Xin, Ye Xue) pays homage to Senior Zhao."
Han Changming and the other two quickly stood up and bowed.
Even though the two families are in-laws, Han Changming and the other two did not dare to be arrogant and still had to perform the necessary formalities.
"No need to be polite, my friend Han. Please take a seat! Yirong, there is nothing for you to do here. Go and get busy!"
Zhao Yulong said with a pleasant expression.
Zhao Yirong responded, bowed and left.
Han Changming and the other two didn't dare to sit down. Zhao Yulong walked to the main seat and sat down, while Han Changming and the other two just stood there.
"Sit down! No need to be polite."
Zhao Yulong's tone was gentle.
"Senior Zhao, we got the Nine-Howl Beast's spirit egg from the Qianling Cave Heaven on Qianling Star. Thanks to Senior Zhao's care, our Han family has been doing well over the years. We would like to give the spirit egg to Senior Zhao as a token of our appreciation."
Han Changming's tone was sincere.
Ye Xin took out the spirit beast egg and handed it to Zhao Yulong with both hands.
"The Nine-Howl Beast's spirit beast egg!"
Zhao Yulong was somewhat moved. He stood up and looked carefully.
The Nine-Roar Beast is relatively rare, and the Zhao family has been searching for it over the years without success.
Judging from the appearance alone, Zhao Yulong could not determine whether it was the spirit beast egg of the Nine-Roar Beast. Some secret techniques could detect it, but Zhao Yulong was not a spirit master and was not good at this.
He carefully placed the spirit beast egg on the ground, took out a red star-moon disk, and entered a spell. A pleasant female voice sounded: "Master, what do you want?"
"Come to Yingxian Palace and bring the treasures for testing spirit beast eggs. There is a spirit beast egg that needs your identification."
Zhao Yulong ordered.
"Yes, Patriarch."
Han Changming and the other two secretly sighed inwardly, the Zhao family was indeed a big family, and Zhao Yulong directly used the Star-Moon Plate to contact his family members. They were really wealthy.
The Han family still has a long way to go if they want to develop to the level of the Zhao family.
"Friend Han, can you tell me how you found the Nine-Roar Beast Spirit Egg?"
Zhao Yulong's tone was gentle.
"Madam, you are an eyewitness, please tell us!"
Han Changming looked at Ye Xin.
Ye Xin nodded and talked about how she got the Nine-Roar Beast. Of course, she didn't say how many spirit beast eggs there were. She just said that Yang Yuxian invited them to help, and she didn't mention the Soul-Suppressing Flute.
"Seven Swords Gate!"
Zhao Yulong suddenly realized that it was related to the Seven Swords Sect. No wonder Han Changming would hand over the spirit beast egg.
This is also normal. If any other force wants to keep the treasure for themselves, they will not easily share it with others.
Zhao Yulong could also see that Ye Xin was not telling the truth and might have spirit beast eggs on her body, but he knew it but didn't say anything.
It is already very good that Han Changming could think of the Zhao family and give a spirit beast egg to them. If the water is too clear, there will be no fish.
A clear phoenix cry was heard, and a silver phoenix flew in.
A plump young woman in a silver skirt stood on the back of a silver phoenix. The young woman had delicate features, skin as white as snow, starry eyes and white teeth. Judging from her aura, she was obviously a cultivator in the late stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
Zhao Yiling is a spirit master who has cultivated many spirit beasts. The most powerful one is a sixth-level thunder phoenix, which is called the Thunder Phoenix Fairy by many cultivators.
"Friend Han, let me introduce you to Yi Ling, the most outstanding spirit master in our Zhao family."
Zhao Yulong pointed at Zhao Yiling and introduced her, his face full of pride.
"My name is Han Changming, nice to meet Fairy Zhao."
Han Changming greeted them.
"Does Fellow Daoist Han also raise a dragon?"
Zhao Yiling said curiously, looking Han Changming up and down.
She shook her wrist lightly, and a loud dragon roar was heard. A golden light flew out from the spirit beast bracelet. It turned out to be a huge golden dragon with a golden horn on its head and its body covered with golden scales. It was a fifth-level dragon.
The golden dragon let out a loud dragon roar and stared at Han Changming.
It senses the aura of its own kind, which cultivators cannot detect.
Zhao Yulong showed an interested expression on his face and looked at Han Changming.
Han Changming thought for a moment and released the thunder rhinoceros insect.
The golden dragon let out a loud dragon roar and stared at the thunder rhinoceros worm.
The Thunder Rhinoceros Insect was not afraid at all. It let out an even louder dragon roar, and countless silver arcs of electricity surged out of its body surface.
A large number of Zhao family monks came from afar, and Zhao Yulong shouted: "It's nothing, you can retreat!"
After hearing this, the Zhao family cultivator retreated.
Han Changming's heart tightened. He didn't expect something like this to happen. It seemed that Zhao Yiling's spirit beast was going to eat the thunder rhinoceros worm.
If Zhao Yiling asked for the Thunder Rhinoceros Bug, Han Changming would not be able to respond.
"My spirit insect has some dragon blood. Fairy Zhao's spirit beast can actually find my spirit insect. It seems that Fairy Zhao's dragon is not ordinary!"
Han Changming praised.
"How much dragon blood? Fellow Daoist Han is too modest. The blood of your spirit insect is not low, otherwise my spirit beast would not have such a strong reaction and want to eat your spirit insect to strengthen its blood."
Zhao Yiling said meaningfully, and then changed her tone and said, "Our two families are relatives, so we naturally won't do this. It's hard to say for others. Fellow Daoist Han, you'd better keep it and don't let it out casually. If a dragon of the same level sees it, it will probably want to swallow your spirit insect."
She was indeed somewhat tempted, but she had to consider the owner before beating the dog. She was not stupid enough to ask Han Changming for the thunder rhinoceros worm.
She put the golden dragon back into the spirit beast bracelet to prevent it from fighting with the thunder rhinoceros worm.
Han Changming breathed a sigh of relief. The Thunder Rhinoceros Insect had devoured the essence and blood of the sixth-level Thunder Dragon, and its bloodline had become much stronger.
"Okay, let's get down to business first! You can chat slowly later."
Zhao Yulong got down to business, pointed at the spirit beast egg on the ground, and said, "Friend Han said this is the spirit beast egg of the Nine Roar Beast, one spirit, take a look, is it true?"
Every profession has its own specialties, so leave professional matters to professionals.
"The spirit beast egg of the Nine Roaring Beast?"
Zhao Yiling was a little surprised, her eyes fixed on the spirit beast egg. She observed the spirit beast egg carefully and placed her palm on the surface of the spirit beast egg.
"From the outside, it looks pretty much the same as what's recorded in the books. But to see if it's the Nine-Howl Beast's spirit beast egg, we still need to use the Demon Detection Mirror to see for ourselves."
As Zhao Yiling spoke, he took out a small pale gold mirror. The back of the mirror was engraved with images of birds, beasts, fish and insects. It was filled with amazing spiritual energy and was undoubtedly a magical treasure that could reach the sky.
She injected magic power into the small golden mirror, and the mirror surface suddenly became bright. The birds, beasts, fish and insects on the back of the mirror seemed to come alive and twisted constantly.
A golden light flashed, and the demon-detecting mirror emitted a golden glow that covered the spirit beast egg.
Not long after, countless runes lit up on the surface of the Demon-Appraising Mirror, and images of various demon beasts appeared. After a while, the runes disappeared, and a Nine-Roaring Beast appeared on the mirror.
"Yes, it's the Nine-Howl Beast."
Zhao Yiling showed joy on his face.
"Friend Han, where did you get it? This kind of spiritual beast is almost extinct, and it is difficult to reproduce."
Zhao Yiling said excitedly that as a spirit master, when he saw a rare spirit beast, he wished he could recognize it as his master and raise it.
"My wife found it in Qianling Cave Heaven. There are two level six Nine Roar Beasts in it!"
Han Changming explained.
"Yiling, take the spirit beast egg to the Heavenly Beast Peak and find a way to hatch it. I'll take care of it for you."
Zhao Yulong ordered.
"Yes, Patriarch."
Zhao Yiling responded, agreed, put away the spirit beast egg, and jumped onto Lei Feng's back.
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Han, if you are not in a hurry, come to my place later and we can discuss the way of taming beasts."
Zhao Yiling remembered something and said to Han Changming.
"no problem."
Han Changming agreed.
Zhao Yiling nodded and gently patted Lei Feng's back with his right hand. Lei Feng flapped its wings gently and flew out.
"Friend Han, we accept this spirit beast egg. If you want anything, just tell us and we will do our best to satisfy you."
Zhao Yulong said with a pleasant expression.
"Senior Zhao, you are too polite. Without the Zhao family's care, our Han family wouldn't be where we are today. The spirit beast egg is a gift to you, not an exchange."
Han Changming said seriously.
It was not easy for him to ask for such things. If he asked for too little, he would be at a disadvantage. If he asked for too much, Zhao Yulong might be unhappy. It would be better to throw the ball to Zhao Yulong. Han Changming would take whatever Zhao Yulong gave.
Zhao Yulong looked thoughtful, took out a golden magic disk, entered a spell, and made some gestures.
Half a minute later, a tall and thin old man in a golden robe walked in, holding a yellow storage ring in his hand, and handed it to Zhao Yulong with both hands.
Zhao Yulong handed the storage ring to Han Changming and said, "This is a little gift from our Zhao family. Just consider it as a reward for asking you to teach Yuwei how to make pills. I wonder if you are willing to stay at our Zhao family for a while and teach Yuwei and the others how to make pills?"
Since Han Changming said it was a gift to the Zhao family, the Zhao family also changed their explanation.
Not only can they ask Han Changming to teach the younger generations of the Zhao family how to make alchemy, but they can also keep Han Changming to stay for a while and strengthen their relationship, killing two birds with one stone.
Han Changming swept his spiritual sense and found three sets of Dharma materials and a defensive magic treasure, which was beyond Han Changming's expectation.
"Then we'll bother you."
Han Changming agreed. He also wanted to take this opportunity to build a good relationship with the elite disciples of the Zhao family, as he might need their help in the future.
Zhao Yulong nodded and sent someone to arrange accommodation for Han Changming. Han Changming and his wife and two of them settled down at the Zhao family's house.
