Qin Xiao had no idea what Ye Qingya was thinking, but he noticed that both of them were silent.

He breathed a slight sigh of relief, and even felt a shameless sense of smug satisfaction.

The thought flashed through Qin Xiao's mind, but he immediately cut it off.

And he severely criticized himself in his heart, realizing that he was truly not a human being!

"Huh? Why is the inner warehouse in such a terrible state?!"

Qin Xiao spoke with a surprised expression. Hearing him speak, the two women composed themselves and moved closer to look at the screen.

Feeling the warm breaths on both sides, Qin Xiao kept his eyes down and suppressed his inner turmoil.

Ye Qingya looked at Qin Xiao's logged-in account and was somewhat surprised.

The inner treasury of this Imperial Temple is naturally extremely rich, but Qin Xiao used his current authority to adjust the options to the demigod level.

The entire page instantly became much quieter, with very few people actually browsing.

There were only a pitiful ten or so spirit crystals at the demigod level, and they were all defective.

There are only a handful of demigod-level resources, and they are all of absurd origin.

Furthermore, these demigod-level spirit crystals are basically classified according to the rules governing the abilities of the strange beasts they possessed in their previous lives.

At first glance, it's all just useless junk.

The most outrageous thing is that there's something clearly marked on one of the spirit crystals!

Can give birth!

Holy crap, is this a rule that a human can comprehend?

Huh?

After saying that, Qin Xiao suddenly realized that it might not necessarily be given to others!

You can let your beast tamers learn it!

However, he then thought that since his beasts were all based on divine beast templates, did he really need to comprehend these random abilities?

It would be more reliable to wait until they reach the transcendent level and spontaneously comprehend their bloodline power, wouldn't it?

Qin Xiao predicted that at the latest, there would be at least a guaranteed divine being, and none of them would be weak.

The templates I choose are all renowned, and even if they're not as good as the originals, the achievements won't be too far off.

With this thought in mind, Qin Xiao's mind instantly became clear.

He had previously said that he owed Ye Qingya a lot, and that as her husband, he had no ability to take her on her journey.

Now, here it is!

"Qingya, look at these spirit crystals, which one do you like? Hmm, Huanhuan, take a look too."

Ye Qingya was speechless. "What am I looking at? I don't need it. Giving it to us would be a waste."

"That's not right. Even if we don't need it now, we'll need it later. Besides, we can absorb pure spiritual energy first, which will greatly benefit our cultivation."

Qin Xiao quickly advised, "It would be a pity if you really don't want it. I'll probably take it myself."

They look down on these abilities and rules, and might end up feeding them all to Jianmu, which would be a complete waste.

Cough cough, Mu, I absolutely didn't mean to look down on you.

Qin Xiao added a sentence in his mind.

It's really not cost-effective to use it just to ripen the fruit of the Jianmu tree.

Even a thousand extraordinary spirit crystals would be better than using demigod-level ones.

"Anyway, don't worry about all that. Just choose what you think is useful and interesting."

Qin Xiao didn't want to waste any more time and made the decision immediately.

He himself started to take it seriously.

A dozen or so spirit crystals won't last long, and the information they provide isn't much anyway.

Soon all three of them had read it.

Leaving aside a few individuals with bizarre abilities such as being able to reproduce or sleep.

Of the remaining few, there are three that are barely acceptable.

Qin Xiao knew that those creatures that could reproduce and sleep might be a huge waste if they had corresponding beasts to control.

But he really didn't have it.

Neither Ye Qingya nor the other woman were there.

Their tamed beasts are mostly fire-type: Seven-Flame Ladybug, Flower Flame Fairy, two Crimson Lotus Fire Foxes, two fire-type Totoro, and Stone Flame Crocodile Dragon, none of which are compatible with these.

Not to mention himself, who should have children with Jingjing, Youyou, Bailing, Ilya, Yunyun, Qianyun, Slovic, and Bufeifei? Who should have slept all day?

At most, Yunyun or Qianyun might be somewhat related to sleeping, and we might try to develop a dream-like ability.

But as the saying goes, it's not worth it; you're picking up a sesame seed but losing a watermelon.

For Qian Yun and Yun Yun, developing their Heavenly Vision and Earthly Hearing abilities, as well as their swordsmanship, should be their primary focus in the future.

Finally, after looking at them for a long time, the three of them chose three.

The rule abilities can be broadly categorized as: Illusion, Silence, and Metamorphosis.

Iridescent colors, in essence, are the ability to change and simulate different colors.

Silence can maintain absolute silence within a certain area around you.

Shedding one's skin multiple times is a way to escape injury and restraint.

These abilities are more like a further amplification of some kind of instinct in the creatures, and frankly, they are almost entirely harmless.

But that's precisely why they're slaughtered and left here for people to choose from.

However, these three rule-based capabilities are not without potential for development.

According to Qin Xiao's own speculation.

Perhaps the development of color magic will eventually allow it to arbitrarily change the colors of the world, causing all things in the world to lose their color.

That is the opportunity to become a god.

Similarly, silence can make the world free of noise, and may even develop into a special kind of sound wave, developing in different directions, and perhaps one can even become a god through this.

As for transformation, there is even more potential there.

This ability has the potential to develop into a terrifying immortality.

It's a pity that these slain beasts probably didn't have much intelligence and couldn't develop their abilities properly; they relied more on their biological instincts.

This might explain why abilities are so strange and unusual, and why reaching the demigod level is so difficult.

"Have you decided? These are the three, right?"

Qin Xiao asked softly.

Ye Qingya was still undecided. "But Brother Xiao, these spirit crystals are really not a good fit for us."

Ye Qingya became completely anxious and insecure, and subconsciously changed the way she addressed people to her private nicknames.

Qin Xiao didn't mind at all, "So what if it doesn't fit? Does that mean we don't want it? It's free anyway, might as well take it."

He was quite open-minded, after all, he had already thought things through.

Moreover, this was truly a free gift; he never expected the academy to prepare such a generous present for him.

Keep in mind that he initially only went for the three rewards from the Temple of the Gods.

"Alright, alright, don't overthink it. At worst, we can absorb it for cultivation. It'll be very beneficial for advancing our rank, enough for us to absorb one or two ranks."

As Qin Xiao spoke, he clicked "confirm," and the Imperial Temple would arrange delivery soon.

These three are really being pretentious. Although it's somewhat useless, it's still a demigod-level spirit crystal.

If others knew how picky they were, countless people throughout the heavens and the myriad realms would be furious.

Countless people can only look up to it but cannot reach it, want it but cannot get it.

Even the most useless demigod-level spirit crystal would be fought over by people if it were taken out!

It could even trigger a small-scale interdimensional war.

Qin Xiao didn't pay attention and opened the demigod-level resources in the inner treasury again.

This is somewhat different from the Spirit Crystal page.

It was almost entirely a hodgepodge of rare and precious natural materials.

Some enhance talent, some accelerate cultivation, and some assist in comprehending the rules.

The three were dazzled by the dozens of rare and precious materials on display.

Qin Xiao stopped clicking when he saw a certain item, his eyes lighting up.

"Hmm, this thing is interesting!"
