Cultivation Online novel Chapter 829

Chapter 829 - Nature Of Magical Beasts

"Uhh... The especial category, I guess?" Yuan responded after pondering for a few moments.

"very well".

The man pushed the other three books to the side before placing the especial category in front of Yuan.

"Here you go, buddy. Take your time."

Yuan opened the book and began flipping through the pages, and he could see names of magical beasts and painted pictures of them on each page.

He didn't recognize any of these magical beasts, mostly because he hasn't really encountered any magical beasts since he arrived in Spirit Heaven.

However, judging by their appearance and description, most of these magical beasts appeared to be quite powerful.

"By the way, I should let you know in advance that these magical beasts are all matured. If you wish to look for immature magical beasts, you'll have to visit our action house."

Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why does it matter if they're mature or not?"

The man chuckled and said, "It matters a lot. Mature magical beasts are more difficult to control and train while immature magical beasts will give you a much easier time. Also, if you properly narture an immature magical beasts until their maturity, they will be much more powerful than a magical beasts that raised itself in the wild. This is why most people prefer immature magical beasts."

A few minutes later, Yuan closed the book and shook his head, "Sorry, but i am not interested in these magical beasts;"

"Don't worry, we have a lot more magical beasts in the other categories. In fact, the special category has the least choices due to their rarity. Also, just because they are rare doesn't make them more powerful. There are magical beasts in the other categories that are extremely powerful."

"Thank you for the offer, but I don't think my decision will chance even if I look at the other categories." Yuan shook his head.

"I see..."

The man took back the books before putting them away.

"Anyways, if you ever chance your mind, you know where to find us. We have new magical beasts almost every week. If you're looking for immature magical beasts, you should give our action house a visit. Its only a couple of street away.

"Okay." Yuan nodded.

He left the place shortly after and began wandering the city again.

"Yingying, I must ask, how do you feel about cultivators capturing magical beasts and selling them?" Yuan suddenly asked her.

He was worried that she might be feeling disgusted by such a business. After all. she is technically a magical beasts as well, and it would be akin to watching her own people being sold.

"You don't have to worry about me, I don't feel anything about it." Lan Yingying responded in a calm voice.

"Even though we are all technically magical beasts, we do not see each other like humans see other humans."

"For humans, regardless of your background, you are still considered as humans, and you are able to feel empathy towards other humans, but that is not the case for us magical beasts, as we see other races as a different species."

"In fact, we do not feel intimacy even towards our own race."

"The most important thing to magical beasts are their connections with one another, just like my connection with you."

"I wouldn't feel anything if a stranger died before my eyes, but I would feel pain if I saw you hurt. That's just how all magical beasts function, and that is precisely why we don't care if cultivators capture or hunt other magical beasts."

"In fact, magical beasts also hunt other magical beasts for their cultivation, so we have no right to judge humans for their actions."
