The Supreme God novel Chapter 38

Having stayed on the Beast Mountain for six days, Austin obtained more and more beast cores, useful organs, and monster skins.

He had gathered the beast cores in his space ring—five beast cores of level two monster beasts, three beast cores of level one demonic beasts and two level one diabolic beasts. Actually he had killed more than ten level one monster beasts.

Beside the beast cores, there were also a great deal of dead bodies and useful organs of demonic beasts, diabolic beasts and monster beasts. The Sun Sect preferred not to waste any part of a kill. They didn't hunt for sport—on the contrary, they could use every part of anything they killed.

And of all the demonic beasts, diabolic beasts and monster beasts, more than one part was useful. The fur could be used to make armors. As they were light, soft and tough enough, the armors fashioned from these materials were not only comfortable and good-looking, but also powerfully defensive. It was even better than ordinary chain armor.

Weapon refiners could add some sharp paws or horns of diabolic beasts to the weapon they were making by special means. In this way the power of the weapon could be improved greatly. And any way you could improve a weapon was highly valuable. A weapon was just a weapon, but one enhanced with diabolic power would be a sought-after weapon indeed.

And the flesh of the beast was also of great use!

Especially that of demonic beasts and diabolic beasts. They could cultivate themselves innately and their flesh contained plenty of natural energy, which was great beneficial to humans after humans cooked and ate it. It wasn't particularly delicious, but then nothing good for you ever was. And Austin had enough to last him quite a while.

Some beast parts had specific properties. For example, the gall of the golden crown snake could be used as medicine and an antidote for poisons of all kinds!

The bones of a red fire tiger could be cooked in water. After that the water could be used in a bath to enhance a warrior's skin, flesh, tendons and bones.

As for herbs, there weren't many, since the Beast Mountain was a location for low level disciples to test their strength.

Furthermore, there were always some people from the sect patrolling the area. Once they found even the weakest herbs, they would harvest them for the high level disciples.

After all, the hopes of the sect were pinned on the high level disciples only. The numerous low level disciples were still disposable. They were just cheap labors, until they proved themselves to be otherwise.

Of course there was something exceptional here. There would be precious herbs that were overlooked by the sect and some low level disciples were lucky enough to find them first.

There was an outer disciple who had found an earth spirit herb. After he ate it, his cultivation base improved greatly and soon he was upgraded to an inner disciple.

But this was really rare.

Austin had been on the periphery of Beast Mountain. Most of the herbs he found were of lower quality and had only grown for fewer years, such as ground bone grass and little magic flowers, which only grew for one or two years. These herbs were only worth one vital energy crystal for four or five pieces, and that's when the market value was good. If there were too many of them, only dozens of them were worth one vital energy crystal.

Austin usually didn't pick these herbs, but looked for some herbs of better quality.

For example, vital energy wort, sapphire ear grass of six years or above was worth five vital energy crystals for one piece and Austin would spend some time gathering those.

But all in all, Austin didn't get many herbs this time.

It was reasonable for the low level disciples to focus on picking herbs. Facing those level two beasts, they were actually in danger and could even die if they were not careful enough.

And it was much safer to pick herbs.

Compared to suffering terrible injuries or even death fighting against the powerful beasts, they preferred to pick flowers and fruit.

Especially since there were some disciples without a good cultivation base mingling here in the Beast Mountain. They planned to search for the herbs and avoid mixing it up with the beasts.

They could pick up a lot of herbs, wort, fruits and the like. If they were lucky enough to find some precious herbs, they would get wealthy quite quickly.

It was the eighth day of Austin's stay on Beast Mountain. When he was passing a swamp in the forest, he suddenly found that there was a pair of huge eyes in the swamp staring at him deeply and coldly.

It was a level two monster beast! A giant rock lizard!

This was a monster beast famous for its powerful defenses. Most of its body was covered by scales as hard as granite. Even the strongest attacks would feel like a tickle to it.
