I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 118 - Monkey Wine

Qin Yi stared at Yin Cheng and continued to ask, "What about the bad news?"

Yin Cheng immediately replied, "The two bad news I mentioned earlier is all related to the auction. The first bad news is since the Mystic Beast Egg might appear at the auction, the Myriad Beast Sect will most likely appear to compete for that egg. Hence, it won't be easy for Master to get the Mystic Beast Egg. The Myriad Beast Sect has rarely lost in any competition related to beasts. Firstly, they are overflowing with money, and secondly, no one is stupid enough to dare compete with them. After all, no one could guarantee their life after exiting the auction house if they did that."

Qin Yi frowned upon hearing this.

This is indeed bad news.

With the strength and background of the Myriad Beast Sect, few could compete with them.

Hence, Qin Yi's chances of obtaining the Mystic Beast Egg are very slim.

First of all, the essential qualification to compete with the Myriad Beast Sect was budget. Facing such a colossus sect, Qin Yi is not confident with his budget.

Even though he had managed to accumulate a lot of spirit stones in the past few months, it was still too green if he wanted to compete with the Myriad Beast Sect. 

Since it was a large-scale auction, the budget might not even be able to afford the cheapest item there.

Therefore, his only solution is to gather more money.

To do that, then Qin Yi needed to extract a lot of wealthy young masters or Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators.

However, those wealthy young masters are a bit hard to encounter. The children of the big clans rarely play outside like commoners as they usually only appear in certain places.

As for extracting Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, Qin Yi must advance to Foundation Establishment Realm first.

There would undoubtedly be many Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators that would appear in the auction. If Qin Yi extracted them, he would get a lot of extra budget from them.

He had initially intended to save up his Cultivation Points to increase his martial arts mastery, but now he seemed to have to change his plans.

Anyway, his accumulated Cultivation Points had almost reached 100,000. It won't be long until he can use it can break through to Foundation Establishment Realm.

"And then, what about the second bad news?" Qin Yi asked again.

Facing this question, Yin Cheng suddenly becomes reluctant to speak.

"What's wrong?" Qin Yi strangely looked at Yin Cheng.

"... Master, this second bad news is related to the action and also... me..." Yin Cheng's voice weakened the more he spoke.

Qin Yi raised his eyebrows, "How so?"

"Master, have you forgotten about my enemies?"

"Of course, I still remember. Jade Poison Sect, isn't it?"

Yin Cheng nodded and started to explain, "The Black Water Auction House is one of the largest auction houses in the region. The triennial event they hold will surely attract many parties, including the Jade Poison Sect..."

Qin Yi had already heard the name of this sect from Yin Cheng's mouth.

The Jade Poison Sect was a sect that specialized in using poison. This sect is also a Great Sect ranked in the top 50.

Although the rank of the Jade Poison Sect was far lower than Qin Yi's sect, Qin Yi cannot underestimate them. After all, they are still one of the affiliate sects of Underworld Palace.

What's more, the representatives from the Jade Poison Sect who will be attending the auction are probably not ordinary people as they are likely Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators or above.

With their extraordinary spiritual perception, they would probably be able to easily catch Yin Cheng's presence even after he entered the shadow form.

They would not hesitate to attack Qin Yi and capture Yin Cheng if that happened.

Black Water City is not like Ancient Dragon City. Fights, robberies, and even murder are unspeakably legalized in that place. 

In fact, most places in the cultivation world were anarchic. As long as you are strong, you have the right to do anything. Therefore, an orderly place like Ancient Dragon City was scarce.

Even though Qin Yi had many means of survival, he was unsure whether he could survive against two or more powerhouses. Even if he managed to escape, he would end up getting nothing from his arrival in Black Water City.

Even if he managed to escape, he would end up getting nothing from his arrival in Black Water City.

If he gave up on his objective, what was the point of him going there? 

Qin Yi asked, "When exactly is the action being held?"

"Three months from now, Master." Yin Cheng replied.

Three months...

That was enough time for Qin Yi to make various preparations.

He sighed and said, "Let's think about that later. For now, we'll focus on our current objective first..."

***

When Qin Yi entered the Monkey Mountains, it was already dark, and the moon had already taken over the dark sky.

Walking through the gravel mountain roads, a chilly wind blew and made the cloak he wore flutter slightly. Along the way, Qin Yi did not once or twice see the little white monkeys hanging from the towering trees.

These monkeys were numerous, and Qin Yi had already lost count of their number. What's more, every one of them was Rank 1. According to his estimation, the strength of these monkeys was on par with The Late Stage of Qi Condensation Realm cultivators.

Rank 1 Magical Beasts were indeed weak against Qin Yi, but he had no way to contend with them if they came together in countless numbers. That's terrible.

Fortunately, these monkeys have a mild character.

According to Yin Cheng's information, these monkeys will only attack if someone attacks them. Thus, one thing to be aware of from them is the mischief of their hands.

These monkeys like to swarm people and steal their possessions. If people didn't bring poses like space rings and space bags, the monkeys would forcefully rob the victims' clothes until they were completely naked.

With their abnormal numbers and strength, even a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator was vulnerable. Therefore, people prefer to sacrifice their empty space bags rather than be embarrassed.

With his Hidden Night Cloak's invisibility ability, Qin Yi walked silently towards a particular monkey sleeping on a piece of logs lying on the ground.

'System, extract this monkey!'

Soon, the system immediately responded.

[Extraction failed!]

[Note: The system can't extract anything from unpossessed clones/avatars.]

Qin Yi blinked his eyes as he muttered, "It really is a clone..."

He did not give up as he continued to find the other monkeys and extract them one by one. However, the result remains the same.

They are all clones.

Qin Yi began to believe that the main body of these monkeys was that of a Mystic Beast.

However, the problem here is how to find the main body of these clones?

Even though Qin Yi had experience raising two Mystic Beasts, apart from their bizarre abilities, he really didn't know what their distinctive features were.

Perhaps their silliness or their cuteness?

'Come to think of it; if I take a closer look at these monkeys, they are actually quite cute'.

Qin Yi said inwardly as his gaze observed every monkey that caught his eye.

The monkeys have a small body size with white fur, and their skin color is red like a peach. They are like Macaca fuscatas on the Earth but way cuter.

Perhaps the main body of these monkeys is really the Mystic Beast.

Before long, Yin Cheng, who was in his shadow form, arrived before Qin Yi to start reporting what he had found.

"Master, I found a lake fifteen meters from here."

"Lake?" Qin Yi paused a second before he bluntly said, "I don't need a bath."

Yin Cheng was stunned. He said, "Master, the lake is not for bathing."

Qin Yi tilted his head in confusion.

"The water in the lake is Monkey Wine." Yin Cheng explained briefly.

Qin Yi was shocked, "Seriously? That entire lake is Monkey Wine?"

Yin Cheng nodded and continued to say, "However, retrieving Monkey Wine is not an easy task because monkeys surround that lake."

"It's okay. Lead me there!"
