Beast Taming: Sharing Pets' Abilities

Moreover, a layer of faint light like gold foil gradually appeared on the surface of the Taiyi Golden Bell, emanating a mysterious aura.

Because it was his Lifebound Magical Artifact, linked to his life, Gu Yuan vaguely felt that the Taiyi Golden Bell seemed to be sensing something unusual.

This made Gu Yuan’s heart tighten, as he discreetly observed the items on the stall in front of him.

From time to time, he would slightly shift his body to see if he could deepen the Taiyi Golden Bell’s sensing within him.

Items that could trigger the Taiyi Golden Bell’s sensing were probably not common.

Gu Yuan pondered, perhaps it was materials that were similar or opposing that were causing the Taiyi Golden Bell’s reaction, or perhaps it was restrictions that were similar or opposing, inducing this reaction in the Taiyi Golden Bell.

Gu Yuan’s Taiyi Golden Bell was made from materials sourced from an outer world, making it extremely difficult to find identical materials.

As for objects that were oppositional...

Gu Yuan felt that this possibility was also not high.

Then there were items of the same origin...

The Taiyi Golden Bell in his dantian was still of low grade, with limited spirituality, providing limited feedback to Gu Yuan.

If the Taiyi Golden Bell was upgraded to a Magical Treasure, then Gu Yuan might already have understood the reason by now.

Fortunately, it wasn’t long before Gu Yuan’s gaze shifted as he sensed something unusual.

Whenever he moved his body slightly to the side, the reaction of the Taiyi Golden Bell within him grew stronger.

When he moved back slightly, the Taiyi Golden Bell’s reaction weakened.

The stall had quite a few items, besides spirit medicine and spiritual materials, there were also some odds and ends, whose origins were unknown from the little old man.

However, due to these circumstances, Gu Yuan finally locked onto one of the items on the stall.

This item was black, appearing like half a broken tile, with crosshatched, pitted marks on its surface.

However, when Gu Yuan saw it, he remained calm and even suppressed the Taiyi Golden Bell within him to prevent any reaction.

Then, Gu Yuan approached the stall, pointed at the "broken tile," and said, "Senior, may I take a look at this item?"

The stall owner, a little old man, nodded and said, "You may."

"Thank you, Senior."

With permission, Gu Yuan raised his hand and took the item in his hand.

But as soon as he held the item, Gu Yuan was shocked.

Because although this broken tile-like item was only palm-sized, about half an inch thick, in his hand it felt incredibly heavy, weighing dozens of thousands of pounds.

Fortunately, Gu Yuan himself was an authentic Body Cultivator, with a strong physique and powerful strength, so such a heavy item was not a burden for him.

Otherwise, for other Golden Core Great Cultivators, lifting it would have been quite challenging.

Gu Yuan discreetly examined it; in the instant he held it, he immediately determined that the item was metallic in nature.

Even its black surface was due to long-accumulated stubborn grime.

Gu Yuan squeezed with force, discovering that with his terrifying strength, capable of imprinting even Refined Gold Iron Mother, the item’s surface did not have a single trace of damage.

Gu Yuan felt that the item’s hardness was unparalleled in his life!

He contemplated, deciding to exert all his mana calmly.

However, despite his efforts, the iron piece remained unscathed, and he even felt a slight dull pain in his fingers.

This was indeed incredible!

Most crucially, when Gu Yuan held it in his hand, the Taiyi Golden Bell within his dantian, even under his suppression, began to tremble gently, emitting tiny streams of golden light that sought to flow into the "broken tile" through Gu Yuan’s meridians.

Since the item wasn’t his yet, Gu Yuan naturally couldn’t allow this to happen.

He looked up, not intending to put the item back, and asked the little old man, "Senior, I want this item. What is your asking price?"

This item, able to elicit such a response from the Taiyi Golden Bell, while being so incredibly hard, was undoubtedly extraordinary, holding potential value for him or for his Taiyi Golden Bell.

The little old man glanced at him, recognizing Gu Yuan’s unusual nature, and replied calmly, "This item is for exchange, not sale. Like other items, I need an equivalent value in spirit medicine or spiritual materials, or you could trade me an ordinary Magical Treasure."

What, a Magical Treasure?

Upon hearing this, many people around were shocked.

The recent Golden Thread Xuan Ginseng and Millennium Yellow Spirit were understandable, being rare spirit medicines with high prices.

However, the broken piece of iron in Gu Yuan’s hand, seeming unremarkable, why demand a Magical Treasure in exchange?

Could this old man be mad, or is there something special and inherently valuable about this piece of iron?

To everyone’s surprise, Gu Yuan did not get angry or deny it; instead, he pondered briefly, as if considering what to trade with.

After some thought, he took out a storage pouch and tossed it to the little old man, saying, "Senior, I offer this in exchange. What do you think?"

The storage pouch contained the Flood Dragon corpse Gu Yuan had found after a sea storm.

Although not a high-cultivated, four-clawed, single-horned Flood Dragon, it had evolved beyond a serpent form, gaining a dragon-like appearance, making it invaluable compared to other demon beast corpses.

Thus, the little old man received the pouch, checked its contents briefly with Divine Thought, and nodded, "Agreed."

With that, he put the storage pouch away.

Gu Yuan then flipped his palm, preparing to store the iron piece.

"Hold on!"

At that moment, a hand suddenly reached for the iron piece in Gu Yuan’s hand.

Gu Yuan frowned, uninterested in engaging, and continued storing the iron piece. He tapped his finger.

His finger, like a taut bowstring, struck precisely at the palm.

With a muffled sound, the hand’s owner let out a grunt, as if struck by thunder, and quickly withdrew his hand.

Voices of rebuke and reproach arose simultaneously,

"How dare you!"

"Outrageous!"

"Daring to attack inside Luofu Immortal City, you have quite the courage!"

...

Gu Yuan first glanced at the young cultivator in front of him, whose face was pale, his hand trembling and even bleeding, and then looked at the surrounding people, especially the gloomy-faced Xue Divine Tiger, and sneered:

"What now? You Yuqiao Immortal Palace disciples audacious enough to grab things from my hands are now accusing me, how truly shameless."

"Surname Chu, I told you to stop, yet you didn’t..."

The young man in front of Gu Yuan, his face ugly, coldly stared at Gu Yuan.
