East Saint base, on the shore of South Lake, the chicken farm.

Inside the log cabin.

Wang Ba looked at the Foundation Establishment Pill in his hand, sighing slightly in his heart.

Everyone has their own fate, he himself can grow gradually in the base without any struggle or competition, but that does not mean others can as well.

With Shen Fu’s talents, if he stayed in the base like him every day, Foundation Establishment might not be a major issue, but wanting to go further, there would not be any likelihood.

So, he couldn’t help but reflect to himself, wondering if he was too stubborn.

Yet after the reflection, he regretted letting Shen Fu go.

Although it might indeed hinder Shen Fu’s growth, he hoped more that the other party could stay alive.

“Perhaps this is the perception of an elder brother…”

Wang Ba could only feel relieved that he gave Shen Fu plenty of cultivation resources before he left.

No matter whether it was necessary or not for the other party and himself.

Anyway, he gave out quite a lot.

This was one of his rare generous moments.

However, in his view, these items, compared to the Foundation Establishment

Pill that Shen Fu gave, were far less valuable.

After all, magic tools, chicken essence; these things could be obtained by spending spirit stones, but the Foundation Establishment Pill has always been priceless.

Even with spirit stones, one could not purchase it.

At this time, Bu Chan knocked at the wooden door and then walked in. Seeing that Wang Ba was not in a good mood, Bu Chan tactfully sat next to him and gently held onto his arm.

Smelling the faint grass and wood scent from Bu Chan, Wang Ba’s mood gradually calmed down.

At this moment, Bu Chan opened her mouth at the right time:

“Senior brother, 1 plan to open up another spirit field next to here to grow

some spirit rice.”

“Growing spirit rice?”

Wang Ba frowned slightly, “We can buy more spirit rice in the market once we run out, it wastes too much time to grow it ourselves.

“It’s okay, growing spirit rice is simpler than blue fire fruit trees, some perennial varieties of spirit rice planted for a year can be harvested for more than ten years and it’s pretty manageable.”

Bu Chan said, “Moreover, there is a lack of chicken feed in the chicken farm for a while now, if there’s no spirit valley bran to add on, these precious chickens and spirit chickens are likely to run out of food.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba could not help but look slightly troubled.

In fact, the chicken feed had been cut off since the end of this forced mission.

Wang Ba tried to contact Yu Changchun several times using the Sound Transmission Talisman he gave, but there was no response as if the other party vanished.

Considering the significant losses suffered by the Tianmen Cult this time, he vaguely guessed that the man might have died outside.

The life and death of the other party have nothing to do with him, but it is related to the supply of chicken feed.

Wang Ba wanted to ask for Yu Changchun’s help, but Yu Changchun was currently hitting the foundation establishment phase and was completely closed off, so he couldn’t get in touch.

Fortunately, since Dong Qiyu had bought more than a thousand spirit chickens at once, the remaining precious chickens he had also hadn’t had a breakthrough, so the consumption of chicken feed wasn’t too high.

It could barely support for some time.

But this is not a long-term solution after all, Wang Ba is also troubled by this matter.

“Growing spirit rice is also a spirit plant. For me, planting spirit rice is not a waste of time, it also benefits my cultivation.”

Knowing that Wang Ba did not want her to waste time on the spirit field, Bu Chan quickly explained.

Upon hearing these words, Wang Ba remembered it.

Bu Chan’s Yuanmi True Method of cultivation depends on the size of the spirit field she takes care of, the higher the grade of the spirit plant, the more beneficial it will be for her.

At this thought, Wang Ba instantly remembered that the use of the Teleportation Array is coming soon.

“Wait a moment, and when the Teleportation Array can be used, 1 will go to the other markets and see if there are suitable high-grade seeds.”

Bu Chan nodded in agreement, and also suggested, “Then I’ll let the Human Puppet start to open up the spirit field first. Then, I’ll ask a Spiritual Lineage master to comb through the nearby Spiritual Lineage, and then set up the Spirit Gathering Array. If the quality of the spirit rice is high, maybe it won’t take much to satisfy the appetite of the chickens.”

She also proposes to grow some other spirit beans and peanuts which have a low requirement for spiritual energy along the lakeshore to gradually improve the soil quality.

Not only can they be eaten themselves, they can also be part of the chicken feed.

Wang Ba naturally agreed with all, he didn’t want to waste his mind on these things, and he trusted Bu Chan who was more professional in this.

Bu Chan’s planning indeed was sound. She even proposed changing the layout of the chicken farm, managing the precious chickens and spirit chickens separately, making full use of the space in the chicken farm.

Listening to Bu Chan’s arrangements, Wang Ba couldn’t help but nod his head. Bu Chan then immediately began to instruct the Human Puppet to get to work. Looking at Bu Chan’s non-stop effort, shadowing in spirit field, chicken farm, and log cabin, Wang Ba couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

Having a female cultivator in the family really made a difference.

Compared to him, a sluggish cultivator, female cultivators seem to have a natural preference for the arrangement of the environment.

Seeing Bu Chan even considering changing the wooden bed, Wang Ba quickly stopped her.

“This wooden bed… is too narrow.”

Bu Chan frowned.

“No, the narrower the better.”

Wang Ba grinned.

Bu Chan instantly realized what he meant, her face growing red. She spat in comic defiance and didn’t ask again.

After a few days of hustle and bustle, the chicken farm was completely transformed.

The spirit field next door had also been turned over by the human puppet.

The cabin remained largely unchanged, but the inside had become kinder, with fresh flowers filling the desk by the window.

Getting up early was made even more invigorating with the aroma of the fresh flowers and the morning light that filtered into the room.

However, the unexpected visit from Bai Yu brought Wang Ba’s mood down quickly.

“You mean to say…Chief Lu has ordered that I must cultivate a Class I top-grade Spirit Chicken within five years?” Wang Ba trailed behind Bai Yu in the chicken farm with a cautious demeanor. He quietly sighed in relief. Fortunately, he hadn’t let Jia 13 and Fantong out earlier, instead keeping them tucked away in Spirit Beast Bag.

Still, when Bai Yu saw Jia 9, he paused in his tracks.

“I’ve never seen this type of chicken before.”

“Ah, it’s a type of ornamental chicken, not much different than a meat one.

Besides its beauty, it doesn’t serve any other useful purpose.”

Wang Ba hurriedly explained.

He quickly grabbed Jia 9 and gave its head a whirl, earning hostile stares from the surrounding male Spirit Chickens.

“How interesting.”

Bai Yu wasn’t curious enough to inquire further. After all, he didn’t know much about beast taming.

He turned around to Wang Ba and spoke solemnly, “Not only that, but if you fail to do so, you may be in danger when Chief Lu gets angry.” Wang Ba’s response surprised Bai Yu. Although Wang Ba looked terrified, he quickly regained his composure and asked,

-May 1 ask Mr. Bai, does Chief Lu have any other requirements?” -No, cultivating a Class I top-grade Spirit Chicken is enough. If you can cultivate a Class II one, he will reward you handsomely.”

Bai Yu shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba heaved a sigh of relief:

-So, 1 can buy an upper-grade chicken, then cultivate it into a top-grade one. Wouldn’t that work as well?”

“Well…”

After a pause, Bai Yu realized that this could actually work. It seemed like a loophole, but it would depend on Chief Lu’s take on it. However, cultivating an upper-grade Spirit Chicken into a top-grade one was significantly harder than cultivating a middle-grade one into an upper-grade. Even if Chief Lu found out, he probably wouldn’t waste such talent. Thinking about it, Bai Yu hesitated before nodding, “If you can succeed, I’ll vouch for you in front of Chief Lu.

“Many thanks to Mr. Bai then!”

Wang Ba bowed in gratitude, but was stopped by Bai Yu.

“This situation is because of me… If you have any difficulties or needs, you can talk to me. The sect provides resources for rearing Spirit Chickens.

Perhaps out of guilt, Bai Yu had softened his approach to Wang Ba. Although Wang Ba didn’t fully understand the situation, he wouldn’t miss this opportunity. He immediately asked Bai Yu to show him the Cult’s books and collection of cultivation methods related to beast taming.

“Cultivation methods might be hard to get, but miscellaneous books should be accessible. Coincidentally, when the East Saint Sect was destroyed, many of their Beast Room books were collected. I can take you to see them.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba was overjoyed.

Without any delay Bai Yu took him to a palace in the inner part of the gate.

Rows of bookshelves filled the entire palace.

Thanks to the ventilation Array present, it didn’t feel stuffy.

With an important person like Bai Yu there, the palace’s Deacon didn’t dare to slack off and generously let Wang Ba borrow many books.

Wang Ba didn’t get greedy and only borrowed books related to beast taming.

His Storage Bag was packed full.

“If you need anything else, let me know anytime with a Sound Transmission Talisman.”

Bai Yu courteously exclaimed.

Wang Ba hesitated before asking, “Mr. Bai, I was wondering if there is a place that provides chicken feed? 1 need to select a large number of Spirit Chickens and with ample chicken feed, the process could be significantly faster.”

“Oh?”

Upon hearing that, Bai Yu seriously pondered the matter before giving several Sound Transmission Talismans to Wang Ba.

“These belong to the cultivators who farm the spirit fields. They might have some things that are suitable for feeding chickens.” Wang Ba was over the moon with the news and thanked Bai Yu profusely. Bai Yu waved his hand and said, “Just make sure to complete the task. I’m hoping to enjoy more Crystal Spirit Peach Wine in the coming years.” Understanding Bai Yu’s hint, Wang Ba immediately replied, “In two months, the wine will be ready. 1 hope Mr. Bai will honor us with your presence and have a taste.”

Bai Yu slightly nodded his head. After a casual chat, Wang Ba was the one to bid his farewell.

After Wang Ba left, his responsibilities started to pile up.

Aside from his unfaltering daily cultivation, he made sure to take some time to study the Beast Room canon.

With his unique life-transferring ability, The Way of Beast Tamer was naturally the best path for him.

Although he didn’t necessarily have to use the methods from the books to cultivate spirit beasts, at least he had to understand them.

Soon, the day to use the Teleportation Array arrived..
