Chapter 28 – Magna

Chapter 28 – MagnaLeyvi didn't expect that the Universal Language effect would also apply to his spirit beast. He didn't notice this with Stripey because the small monkey was pretty smart. He learned the human language on his own.

In any case, this is a good thing as it saves his spirit beast a lot of time trying to learn human language. Not many demonic beasts were smart like Stripey.

"Since you can understand human language now, that's good. Make sure to listen to the instructions from my wife too, if you don't want to get beaten up." Leyvi reminded Mr. Bison.

"Boss! Don't worry, I will not get beaten up like you!" Mr. Bison was used to hearing Leyvi acting in pain every time he got punished by Anda.

"Alright! Since you are my spirit beast now, you can keep the intermediate-level demonic core and I will give you a gift." Leyvi said this using a mental connection. He needs to be a bit secretive about giving talent. Then he silently said the cursed words. Sёarch* The Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Leyvi decided to give Mr. Bison the Sturdy talent. This talent was here for a long time without an owner. He finally found a suitable owner for it.

Daily qi refill? That's pretty good. Leyvi was happy to see that benefit. Now he can last twice as long in battle. If he used this in bed, Anda can't win against his endurance anymore! Hahaha!

"Mr. Bison, let's go to that city," Leyvi pointed to the city they could barely see in the distance. He then went on the carriage again.

Mr. Bison consumed the intermediate-level demonic core and his strength quickly rose. He was now near the intermediate level. He cheerfully resumed pulling the carriage toward the city.

"My wife Anda, please call me Beast Tamer Leyvi from now on, I have three spirit beasts now." Leyvi was asking for trouble again.

"Oh really? Let this spirit beast show who's boss!" Anda attacked Leyvi with panda bite and meat twister.

Leyvi quickly begged for mercy. Tal and Tasya were used to this scene. Their masters have been doing comedy skits since the first time they met. Lilian giggled silently.

"Have you found out who leaked the information?" A man in a well-designed attire asked his subordinate while sitting on his expansive-looking chair with decorated armrests.

"Master, we haven't found the traitor." The subordinate looked ashamed.

"USELESS! I am the city lord but I only have a bunch of useless subordinates!!" The angry man was the City Lord of the Bara City.

"Master, although we don't know who the traitor is, there's only one person who dared to go against you. It must be that Alchemy Master Babadog." Said the subordinate.

"Hmph! Do you think I don't know that? Go out and keep looking for the traitor! I won't be satisfied until I torture him to death!" The city lord dropped his fist on the armchair in anger. The chair was probably a treasure since it could withstand a hit from a middle-stage Core Formation expert.

The subordinate immediately left. He didn't dare to speak anymore. The more he talked the more he would anger the city lord. 

"This damn Babadog! How dare he! This freak with an ugly face and ugly name thinks he can go against me! Now that he knows about this there's no way he wouldn't take action. After all, he is an alchemist. Hmph! I planned this for years, you need to step on my dead body before you can take what's mine!" As soon as his subordinate left, he began to talk to himself.

Ten years ago, when his subordinate reported a phenomenon to him, he went out to investigate and found a cave that led to a deeper part of Bara Volcano. To his surprise, when he reached a certain area of the cave, he couldn't go any further because the heat was too intense. Even his protective qi melted.

He returned and spent a lot of money to buy all kinds of heat-resistance treasures and artifacts. After being well prepared, he went again to the overheated area and finally managed to explore the area.

There, he found THREE special fires! Three, not one. And what's even more shocking was that the three special fires were about to merge with each other. This is not the case of one spirit fire devouring another spirit fire to get stronger, but a natural merging. It means that not only it would become stronger, but it would also retain the properties and abilities of each individual special fire. The merging phenomenon was much rarer to happen than the devouring ones.

He noticed that it would take more time to finish merging, so he got his hand on the best formations to seal and hide this place. He even killed all the low-level subordinates who knew about this to prevent the news from leaking.

Ten years passed. He has been nurturing his eldest son as an outstanding young alchemist to give him the merged special fire. His son is now a 28-year-old genius Alchemy Teacher who can refine middle-grade products consistently! With the merged special fire, he would be able to become an Alchemy Master on the spot and might even refine high-grade products easily!

When his son wins the Alchemy Conference less than a year later, he will receive all the glory and he will finally be able to advance his cultivations. It has been stagnating for too long.

"Babadog? He's just a trash Alchemy Master who relies on his cultivation base and can only refine low-grade products. Even if he died nobody would care. When my son becomes a real Alchemy Master, everyone will forget about this trash soon." The city lord continues to speak to himself. He started to think about a countermeasure plan now that his secret was leaked.

In a luxurious mansion on the other side of the city,

A man with a square face was laughing loudly in front of a big, wide, closed window. He was wearing a fur coat and had a big belly.

"That stupid City Lord, Magna would probably never expected that his own wife would betray him.....all for a Wrinkle Remover Cream, a tier 3 alchemy product. BABABABAA! Oh well....since I'm the only Alchemy Master in the city, it's so easy to bribe someone."  Babadog laughed loudly recalling how easy it was to make Magna's wife talk after he showed the effect of Wrinkle Remover Cream to her.

She even told him her husband's biggest secret. Old Lady, where is your loyalty? Your husband didn't even marry other women but you sold his secret without hesitation. When your son becomes Alchemy Master later, he will be able to make that cream too. You couldn't even wait for a bit.

"Magna...Magna...blame yourself for marrying a greedy stupid woman like her." Babadog felt good mocking Magna. They have been enemies ever since he came here 8 years ago. The City Lord has been making it hard for him to do business here. Now he finally understood why. 

"There should be an extraordinary special fire in which he set up multiple layers of formations. BABABABAA! I will take the special fire for myself and become a better alchemist! Babadog laughed again while he looked forward to his future. 

After laughing, he went out of his room and gave orders to his men.

"Men! Make preparation! We are going to visit Formation Master Dinding."

Leyvi and the group arrived outside of the Bara City. They were standing there and observing the whole city. Bara City was a cultivator city. It was protected by a big formation covering the entire city.

When the volcano erupts, the formation will keep the city safe from volcanic rocks and volcanic ashes. A city of cultivators is usually way larger than a mortal city. The city where Stripey used to play around as a vigilante is a mortal city that doesn't have a formation to protect it.

Stripey won't be able to play vigilante here because he might get hunted by cultivators. Leyvi was reminding Stripey at this very moment.

He then moved Stripey and Mr. Bison into his spirit beast bag while Anda stored the carriage. After that, the party walked toward the city gate.

"Hello brother, we would like to enter the city," said Leyvi politely. All of the city guards here have the cultivation of the Foundation building realm.

"A non-resident has to pay 5 low-grade spirit stones every time entering the city." One of the city guards said without emotion.

"Here brother, 25 low-grade spirit stones." Leyvi quickly took out the spirit stones hand them over to the guard.

"Reminder, don't start a fight in the city and don't commit any crime or you will be caught and be made a slave!" The guard reminded the party seriously.

Leyvi nodded and leisurely entered the city.
