"Put it away first." Qiao Sang handed the black cylindrical crystal in his hand to Xiao Xunbao.
She planned to wait until tomorrow to ask Teacher Mikaela what it was.
"Xunxun..."
Little Xunbao took off the ring listlessly and put the black cylindrical crystal into it.
Seeing this, Qiao Sang asked, "Qi Yufeng gave you resources, aren't you happy?"
"Xunxun..."
Little Xunbao showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and cried out, he was happy.
Qiao Sang laughed and said, "Don't laugh, it's too fake. I'm going to sleep first. I'll take you to change the screen tomorrow."
"Xun, Xunxun?"
The little treasure hunter, who had been listless just now, suddenly lit up his eyes and couldn't wait to confirm.
Going to replace the screen tomorrow?
"Yes." Qiao Sang said as he got into bed.
"Xunxun..."
Little Xunbao thought of something and called out cautiously.
But the Rain-Prayer Phoenix has already given it resources...
"I didn't say that if it gives you resources, it won't replace your screen." Qiao Sang said with a smile.
"Xunxun!"
Upon hearing this, Little Xunbao showed an excited expression, floated to the side of his own beastmaster, and happily rubbed his head against his beastmaster's cheek.
"Alright, alright." Qiao Sang pushed its head away and said, "Play less with your phone tonight. I'm going to sleep."
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao floated to the side, nodded repeatedly, and considerately pulled the quilt towards his own beastmaster.
Qiao Sang closed his eyes and fell asleep quickly.
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao floated to the sofa and happily picked up his phone.
Then it remembered something, put the phone down again, and floated out the window.
Her own beastmaster had already replaced her screen, so she should just go train. She loved training by herself the most...
…
The next day, early morning.
Qiao Sang got up yawning.
As soon as she got up, she saw Xiao Xunbao staring at her with burning eyes.
"Good morning." Qiao Sang greeted.
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao opened his mouth and shouted.
Good morning!
Qiao Sang got up, went to the bathroom and started washing up.
Little Xunbao followed.
Qiao Sang looked at it while brushing his teeth.
"Xunxun~"
Seeing his beastmaster looking at him, Xiao Xunbao grinned.
Qiao Sang said helplessly: "No need to follow me like this. I haven't forgotten what I said last night. When the demon spirit jade is delivered today, I will take you to replace the screen."
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao's eyes lit up, he nodded, and floated outside.
It’s so easy to understand… Qiao Sang felt inwardly.
Nowadays, Steel Treasure has evolved, but in Xiao Xunbao's heart, changing the screen seems to be more important than resources...
This won't do. We're already in the mission assessment phase, so we need to hurry up and get stronger. I don't know what the black crystal Qi Yufeng gave me yesterday is. I hope it's something that can increase my energy...
Qiao Sang finished washing up and walked out of the bathroom.
Half an hour later.
In the hotel restaurant.
The waiter was busy putting breakfast on the table.
"Qiyufeng came yesterday." Qiao Sang said.
"I know," Michaela said as she cut the bread gracefully.
As an S-class beastmaster, she had heard the noise early on, but unlike her students, she could not understand Qi Yufeng's words the first time. She came out to serve as a background, so she stayed in the room without moving.
"It also gave me a black crystal, but I didn't recognize what it was." Qiao Sang said, looking at Xiao Xunbao.
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao received the gaze of his beastmaster and quickly took off the ring, took out the cylindrical black crystal that he had put in yesterday, and placed it on the dining table.
Mikaela glanced down, his expression slightly tense as he explained, "This is a Curse Crystal. It's usually only formed after the death of a Ghost-type pet with a powerful curse. If a non-Ghost-type pet comes into contact with it for a long time or uses it, it will be cursed. However, if a Ghost-type pet uses it, it can increase the power of the curse within it."
So this is called the Cursed Crystal... Qiao Sang picked up the crystal and looked at it carefully under the sunlight coming in from the window.
She didn't feel afraid, because Yabao had the sacred fire, which could purify her even if she was cursed.
Mikaela saw Qiao Sang examining the cursed crystal, and the corner of his mouth twitched as he continued his explanation:
"The power of the curse within the Curse Crystal is determined by the Ghost-type Pet that condensed it. And to condense a Curse Crystal, a Ghost-type Pet must at least be an Emperor-level one."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang suddenly felt something hot and quickly placed the black crystal in his hand on the table.
Yabao is only at the early stage of the Emperor level now, and has never purified the curse of an Emperor-level ghost pet. It would be better not to be in contact with it for too long for the sake of caution.
"Does the Cursed Crystal have the effect of increasing energy?" Qiao Sang asked the question he was concerned about.
Little Xunbao looked over.
"Yes," said Mikaela, "but not much. Its main function is to increase the power of the curse."
"That's not bad." Qiao Sang smiled.
After absorbing so much dead spirit grass in the Sound Bird Valley, Xiao Xunbao's energy has increased significantly. With a little more, he can reach the middle stage. A pet that can condense a curse crystal is at least an emperor-level pet. Even if the energy increase is not much, it should be able to bring Xiao Xunbao to the middle stage, or almost the middle stage.
For the latter, just add points to make it quickly enter the middle stage, and then take the King Energy Potion, and Xiao Xunbao will be able to reach the late King level, and his combat power will increase linearly.
When Qiao Sang thought of this, his appetite increased and he ate all the food in front of him in no time.
…
4:10 pm.
In the open-air training ground, Xiao Xunbao was training absent-mindedly while sensing the movements around him.
When will the demon spirit jade that my beastmaster mentioned be delivered? This delivery is too slow. If I were a courier, I would definitely deliver it this morning...
Just as he was thinking about it, lightning struck down from the sky.
Little Xunbao subconsciously dodged to the side.
"Bang!"
Lightning passed by it and struck the ground.
After this period of training, Xiao Xunbao's super perception seems to have improved a lot, and it seems that he is not as afraid of thunder and lightning as before. After all, if it were before, he would definitely be scared and use teleportation directly... Qiao Sang thought calmly.
Suddenly, the phone vibrated.
Qiao Sang realized something, his eyes lit up, and he quickly took out his cell phone and answered the call.
"Hello? Is this Ms. Qiao? You have a package from Blue Star that needs your signature."
"Where are you now...Okay, I'll be there right away."
Qiao Sang hung up the phone.
"Xunxun?" Little Xunbao teleported over, his eyes lit up, and he shouted, asking if the demon spirit jade had arrived.
Qingbao, who was training hard, stopped and showed an unhappy expression when he saw Xiaoxunbao suddenly disappear.
Immediately it heard the conversation, thought of something, and its eyes lit up as well, and it floated over.
You look happier than Qingbao. If someone didn’t know, they would think the Fairy Jade was for you… Qiao Sang looked at Xiao Xunbao and said with a smile, “Yes, I’ll go get the express now.”
"Xunxun~"
Seeing that it was really the Fairy Jade, Little Xunbao immediately showed an excited expression and shouted, saying that he would go and get it wherever it was.
"In the hotel lobby." Qiao Sang said, "I have to go with you. I need to sign for it in person."
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao's eyes glowed blue, and he disappeared from the spot with his beastmaster and Qingbao.
After about half a minute, the man and two beasts returned to their original place.
The difference is that Qiao Sang has an extra express delivery in his hand.
"Qingqing."
Qingbao cried out.
Immediately afterwards, a sharp blade condensed from wind cut the express delivery in half.
Qiao Sang took out the box inside, entered the password and opened it.
A piece of jade with a faint pink glow suddenly appeared before my eyes.
"Qingqing."
When Qingbao saw this, his eyes lit up and he stretched out his claws to touch it.
"You can't touch it now." Qiao Sang quickly closed the box and said.
"Qingqing?"
Qingbao showed a puzzled expression and cried out.
"You haven't reached the general level's energy limit yet." Qiao Sang explained patiently, "If you touch it now, it might trigger evolution, and then you won't be a perfect evolution."
As he said that, he handed the box in his hand to Xiao Xunbao.
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao quickly placed the box into the ring, then looked at his beastmaster with anticipation.
"Qingqing?"
Qingbao shouted, asking when he could reach the upper limit of the general level.
"It will be soon." Qiao Sang said with a smile, "It should be in the next two days."
In fact, if she didn't need to rush to Jia Country, she would add points to Qingbao tonight to let it evolve.
"Qingqing."
After evolving, it was at the same level as Xiao Xunbao... Qingbao's eyes curved, revealing a happy expression, and he cried out.
At the same time, a cheerful wind blew around.
"Get ready, we are going to Jia Country." Qiao Sang said.
After saying that, she took out her cell phone and prepared to contact Teacher Mikaela.
However, at this moment, Xiao Xunbao seemed to be injured and took a step back.
Qiao Sang looked up and saw Xiao Xunbao looking at him with resentment on his face.
She suddenly thought of something and added, "But before we go to the Jia Kingdom, little Xunbao, you come with me to change the screen first."
"Xunxun!"
Little Xunbao suddenly showed an excited expression and shouted.
…
6:20 pm.
High in the sky.
A dazzling figure was running in the sky.
Little Xunbao sat on Yabao's body and happily played with his mobile phone whose screen had been replaced.
"Jia Country is so vast, if we search normally, we definitely won't find the Hidden Ghost Grass within a month." Mikaela asked, "What are your thoughts?"
Qiao Sang pondered for a moment and said, "I plan to first post a quest to find the Hidden Ghost Grass, and then hire some ghost-type pets to help find it."
"That's a good idea, but you need to screen the ghost-type pets you find." Michaela said.
"Why?" Qiao Sang asked.
Hidden Ghost Grass is only visible to Ghost-type pets and Beastmasters with clairvoyance, so why bother screening? As long as Ghost-type pets can see it, then it's fine.
"Because it's said that the Hidden Ghost Grass has a fatal attraction to ghost-type pets." Mikaela said slowly, "If they don't have absolute self-control, they might just take it themselves after finding it."
After these words were spoken, Qiao Sang couldn't help but look at Xiao Xunbao.
In her opinion, Xiao Xunbao's self-control is a bit lacking.
Little Xunbao noticed the gaze of his beastmaster, raised his head and grinned.
...Qiao Sang retracted his gaze and said seriously, "I will carefully screen them."
Then she thought of something and asked, "Can Jiubugu help me look for it?"
Jiu Bu Gu was right next to him at this moment, looking up at the moon, his whole body radiating the word "lonely", as if he didn't hear what was said.
Mikaela glanced at Jiubugu and sighed:
"It's possible, but don't hold out too much hope..."
"Grind."
Before he finished speaking, the Dragon King added with a shout, indicating that he was right, this guy was thinking about getting rid of his Smiling Eye Night Spirit nine out of ten minutes now, and it was impossible for him to concentrate on helping you find it.
When talking about the Smiling Eyes Night Spirit, Jiu Bugu looked over, but quickly looked away and looked at the moon again.
Michaela nodded in agreement.
How could it be? It still needs to contact the Tenth Seat and then contact Shi Pante... Qiao Sang pretended to sigh and said, "If I can't complete this mission assessment, I may have to stay on Yantian Star for another year and wait until next year for the assessment."
This means that if you fail to complete your mission, it will take longer to leave Yantian Star, and it will also take longer to see the tenth seat.
"Indeed."
Jiubugu understood the meaning of the words, turned around and called out seriously, indicating that it would help in the search.
King Dragon didn't understand at first and looked surprised.
His brain works really fast... Mikaela was stunned for a moment, then looked at Qiao Sang, secretly admiring him in his heart.
She was very confident in her own strength and wisdom, but she didn't think she had the talent to communicate with her pets.
"Thank you." Qiao Sang thanked him.
"Jiujiu." Jiubugu responded and continued to look at the moon.
"How powerful is Qingyun Nana?" Mikaela changed the subject.
She thought of the fairy jade.
"It's almost reached the limit." Qiao Sang said.
"When we get to the country, we can let it test it." Michaela said.
"How long will it take to reach Jia Country?" asked Qiao Sang.
Mikaela took out her phone and looked at it, then said, "About half an hour."
In fact, both Pengamei and Xiaoxunbao can move directly to Jiaguo, but the hotel they booked can only be checked in at 7 o'clock in the evening, so they did not come directly.
When looking for a plant in a country, you can't just search aimlessly. You have to at least understand the terrain first, so Qiao Sang is not in a hurry to go there immediately.
After preparing to check into the hotel, I went out to find out more about the Hidden Ghost Grass and then look for some ghost-type pets. However, Teacher Mikala said that I should test Qingbao's energy. There was no need to refuse. Why not just let Qingbao evolve directly during the inspection? Otherwise, Teacher Mikala would see that Qingbao's energy was close to the upper limit of a general-level pet and would definitely let her test it for the next few days. This would be a waste of time looking for the Hidden Ghost Grass... Qiao Sang immediately thought of something and asked:
"After absorbing the cursed crystal, will Little Xunbao fall into a long sleep due to digestion?"
When Xiao Xunbao heard this, he looked over.
"No," Michaela said.
"Xunxun~"
Little Xunbao's eyes lit up, and he immediately took off the ring, took out the cursed crystal from it, stuffed it into his mouth, and with a "crack", he bit it into pieces.
Seeing this, Qiao Sang did not stop it.
If taking the cursed crystal would cause a long period of sleep, she would definitely wait until the task assessment was completed before asking Xiao Xunbao to take it.
"However, after absorbing the curse crystal, there will be a period of time when you cannot control the curse power in your body, and you will want to curse the people and pets around you." Mikaela continued. (End of this chapter)
