Ye Xuan looked at where Miao Shuyao was pointing.
He instantly saw a black jiao sealed in a small semi-transparent box in front of him.
This jiao had two tiny hairless horns on its head. Its body was covered with black scales. Its two claws were under its body.
Although it was lying quietly in the small box, Ye Xuan still perceived a dash of cruelty and bloodthirsty from its eyes.
Next to the small box, there was an introduction of the black jiao.
“Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao: It has a grade of five stars and a beast level of high Silver. This Rebel Dragon Jiao is the descendant of a jiao collaterally related to dragons and a female shark from the bloodline of ancient giant black sharks. 5000 points will be needed to exchange for this Rebel Dragon Jiao.”
Five stars?
The high Silver level?
Ye Xuan frowned at the introduction next to the small box.
He did not really want a five-star beast on the Silver level.
Not to mention the high Silver level.
Because he would need to make a beast on this level upgrade to the peak Silver level first.
Not until then could he make it achieve the Gold level.
That would take him too much time.
The only merit it had was to achieve the Gold level faster after achieving the peak Silver level.
However, its grade would drop to four stars when it achieved the Gold level.
It would be doubtless very slow to upgrade its cultivation level by then.
If he had sufficient materials, he would rather pick a three-star beast on the peak Silver level.
He just needed to edit such a beast in the Beast Editor, and it would probably achieve the Gold level directly. Wouldn’t it spend less time than a five-star one?
But of course, he could not tell Miao Shuyao that.
While thinking about those things, he still sent a dash of his consciousness to identify the Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao’s attributes in the Beast Editor.
[Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao (Dragon Species): Five Stars
Beast Level: Silver (High)
Abilities: Rebel Dragon Jiao Aspect, Rebel Dragon Combat Technique, Raising Winds and Waves, Overturning Seas and Rivers, Size Manipulation
Evolution Path 1: Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao King
Following this evolution path, the Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao will eventually evolve into an Ancient Rebel Dragon.
Evolution Path 2: Genuine Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao
Following this evolution path, the Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao will eventually evolve into a Mythic-level Three-Headed Rebel Dragon Emperor.]

It doesn’t seem bad.
Ye Xuan raised his eyebrow when he had identified the attributes of the Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao.
Its attributes were really great.
And it had great potential as well.
The only flaw was its grade and level.
“Okay. Maybe I will come back later. This place is huge. I will look around a little bit more before I make any decision.”
Ye Xuan said to Miao Shuyao through voice transmission, although he was tempted.
“Ye Xuan, the level of the Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao is too low for you, isn’t it?”
Miao Shuyao did not let Ye Xuan go right away after having got his reply. Instead, she said to him through voice transmission again, “In that case, check this out.”
She pointed at something not far away.
“That is…”
Ye Xuan looked at where Miao Shuyao was pointing. His eyes instantly lit up.
However, this time what Miao Shuyao was pointing at was not a beast.
It was a white china bottle instead.
The description of what was contained in the white china bottle was also next to the bottle.
“Silver-level Super Oceanic Dragon Essence: This is a secret drug specially produced in the Palace of the Ocean Dragons. It can speed up the level-up of beasts of the dragon species. One drop of Super Oceanic Dragon Essence can help a five-star beast of the dragon species on the low Silver level achieve the intermediate Silver level in one hour.”
“Two drops of Super Oceanic Dragon Essence can help a beast of the dragon species on the intermediate Silver level achieve the high Silver level in two hours.”
“Three drops of Super Oceanic Dragon Essence can help a beast of the dragon species on the high Silver level achieve the peak Silver level in three hours.”
“Fifteen drops of Super Oceanic Dragon Essence can help a beast of the dragon species on the peak Silver level achieve the Gold level in five hours.”
“Four-star beasts of the dragon species on the Silver level will need one drop more of Super Oceanic Dragon Essence than five-star ones. To achieve the Gold level, they will need two drops more. Three-star beasts of the dragon species on the Silver level will need two drops more of Super Oceanic Dragon Essence than five-star ones…”
“This bottle contains 300 drops of Silver-level Super Oceanic Dragon Essence in it. 500 points will be needed to exchange for one drop.”
“That thing…”
Ye Xuan was really tempted when he read the Oceanic Dragon Essence description next to the bottle.
If he could contract with a beast of the dragon species and get sufficient Super Oceanic Dragon Essence, he would achieve the Gold level in a short time.
“So, this Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao?”
With that thought in mind, Ye Xuan threw another look at the Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao.
If he could get eighteen drops of Super Oceanic Dragon Essence, he would make this Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao achieve the Gold level in about eight hours.
“Well, wait a little bit. I have just started. Maybe I will see better options later.”
Ye Xuan shook his head after some struggling.
There were countless treasures in this treasure trove. He had not seen enough of them yet.
He thanked Miao Shuyao for the recommendations. Then he started to look around again.
However, different from earlier, although he was still walking and looking at the shelves with treasures.
In fact, he had sent a dash of his consciousness to communicate with the Tidal Treasure Snail in the Beast Lair. He told the Tidal Treasure Snail to unfold its Real-Time Map.
As the Real-Time Map was unfolded, he started to look for treasures that could be useful to him on the map.
As well as beasts that met his requirements. Searching this way was faster.
“What the hell….”
Behind Ye Xuan, the Beast Tamer from the Silver Blood Clan who had been following him saw him always remain in silence.
So did the Beast Tamers from the Xia of the Cerulean Planet around him. He was bewildered.
What is happening here?
Have you already learned about the attributes of my beasts?
“There are Gold-level beasts here? What a surprise!”
After searching, Ye Xuan found there were Silver-level beasts and Gold-level beasts in this treasure trove.
However, the Gold level was the top here. There was no beast on a higher level.
Compared to Silver-level beasts, Gold-level beasts, especially five-star Gold-level beasts, cost seventy or eighty thousand points at least.
That was ten-odd times of the points needed to exchange for the Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao.
“Evolutionary resources on the Gold level, the Platinum level … The Challenger level.”
Ye Xuan kept searching. He found the highest level of the evolutionary resources in the treasure trove was the Challenger level. That was beyond his expectation.
“Challenger-level evolutionary resources are so expensive?”
Ye Xuan exclaimed to himself when he had seen those Challenger-level evolutionary resources.
Even the cheapest Challenger-level evolutionary resource in this treasure trove would need ten or twenty thousand points to exchange for.
The more expensive ones even cost more points than what some five-star Gold-level beasts cost.
One Challenger-level evolutionary resource could cost one hundred thousand points.
Even though five-star Gold-level beasts had the potential to achieve the Challenger level.
“I wonder how difficult it will be to get those points.”
Ye Xuan thought expectantly.
Because he found Evil Nether Stones, Wishing Stones, and Conjugal Strings here while checking out the evolutionary resources.
Those three treasures were exactly the Challenger-level evolutionary resources that could be used to edit the Evil Fiery Red Luan.
“Eh?”
While walking around, Ye Xuan found somewhere in the treasure trove another beast that might meet his requirements through the Real-Time Map.
He instantly walked toward a corner, passing by one after another shelf.
Soon, he stopped in front of a shelf and fixed his eyes on another semi-transparent box.
There was a black octopus in the box. The octopus had eight arms.
And each arm of its had a giant suction cup on one end.
And those suction cups had tusks in them.
Next to the box, there was a description of the octopus as well.
“Deep Sea King Octopus Monster: It has a grade of three stars and a beast level of peak Silver. 1000 points will be needed to exchange for it.”
Ye Xuan intuited one thing as soon as he read the description.
This octopus was definitely severely neglected in the Palace of the Ocean Dragons.
Not like that Oceanic Rebel Dragon Jiao, which was thought highly.
However, he still sent a dash of his consciousness to identify the octopus’s attributes in the Beast Editor right away.
[Deep Sea King Octopus Monster: Three Stars
Beast Level: Silver (Peak)
Abilities: Ancient Octopus Secret Technique (Incomplete), Derivation of Flesh and Blood, Devouring
Evolution Path: Five-Star Gold-Level Abysmal King Octopus
The level-up needs a Challenger-level Stone of Abyss and a Challenger-level King Octopus Crystal… The Deep Sea King Octopus Monster can achieve the low Gold level at once after the level-up, and its grade will enhance to five stars.]
Ye Xuan frowned when he had checked out the attributes of the Deep Sea King Octopus Monster.
In fact, this King Octopus had very great potential.
It could keep improving until it became a Mythic-level Ancient Abysmal Heaven Devouring Octopus.
That was an extremely dreadful Mythic-level life form.
1
Ye Xuan was very frustrated when he had seen the materials needed for the King Octopus’s evolution.
It would need several Challenger-level evolutionary resources if he wanted it to level up.
He believed he could find those evolutionary resources in this treasure trove.
However, he was not sure whether he could exchange for so many evolutionary resources at one go.
That having been said, by then, he had found out one common law for the level-up of Gold-level beasts. If he wanted to edit five-star Gold-level beasts that had the potential to achieve the Challenger level in the Beast Editor, most of them would require Challenger-level evolutionary resources.
“One thousand points.”
With that thought in his mind, Ye Xuan shifted his consciousness.
According to the message he had received earlier, he would come back here again after he was transmitted out of the treasure trove.
However, if he wanted to come back to choose more evolutionary resources, he would have to pay one thousand extra points.
“I should be more discreet. So, the plan is to go out first to see whether it is easy to get points. If it is easy, I can pay one thousand points to come back here.”
Ye Xuan made up his mind.
However, he still did not choose any evolutionary resources to start the trial right away.
Instead, he started to stroll around in the treasure trove again.
“What is that?”
Ye Xuan wondered. He stopped in front of another shelf very soon.
On that shelf, there was a small transparent box as well.
There was a white carp with dragon whiskers lying in the small box.
The carp had two small jiao claws on its belly. It looked peculiar.
1
And its white scales were not very dense. They were quite sparse instead.
“Oceanic White Carp Jiao: It has a grade of four stars and a beast level of peak Silver. This Oceanic White Carp Jiao used to be an average white carp. It swam upstream to leap into the Jiao Transforming Pool of the thirty-six Dragon Cities in the Sea. That is how it transformed into its current look. 2500 points will be needed to exchange for it.”
“An average white carp that leapt into the Jiao Transforming Pool?”
Ye Xuan was slightly tempted.
Then he identified the Oceanic White Carp Jiao’s attributes in the Beast Editor right away.
[Oceanic White Carp Jiao: Four Stars
Beast Level: Silver (Peak)
Abilities: White Carp Jiao Aspect, Carp Jiao Combat Technique, Raising Winds and Waves
Evolution Path 1: Gold-Level Five-Star Oceanic White Jiao King
Its look will generally remain the same after evolving into an Oceanic White Jiao King, but its size will become much bigger. And it will get the Jiao Combat Technique as well as the Overturning Seas and Rivers ability.
It will eventually evolve into a Mythic-level Sea Overturning Jiao King.
Evolution Path 2: Spiritual Oceanic White Jiao
After the evolution, it will transform into a Spiritual Jiao and get Spiritual Jiao’s four claws. It will get the Spiritual Jiao Combat Technique, Raising Winds and Waves, Overturning Seas and Rivers, and Size Manipulation.
It will eventually evolve into a Mythic-level Five-Clawed Divine Dragon.

Evolution Path 3: Ancient White Carp
After the evolution will get the Ancient White Carp Combat Aspect and the White Carp Monster Techniques.
It will eventually evolve into an Ancient White Carp Monster Ancestor.
“Which one should I pick?”

Ye Xuan knitted his brows more tightly when he had seen the Oceanic White Carp Jiao’s attributes.
