Not far off, several Stone Beast Service Beasts, devoid of intelligence, nearly keeled over and fainted.

And yet, this was merely the influence of a faint aura emanating from a corpse that had died many years ago and was even incomplete.

Duo Lai wiped the corner of its mouth; although it craved the feast, it managed to restrain the foodie soul within, its eyes alternating between staring at the epic ingredients and glancing towards its own lord.

Mu Yuan looked over.

The space solidified by a special carrier was roughly the size of a basketball court but it barely accommodated the remains inside.

To be precise, it accommodated the remains that had been cut into several segments.

One could vaguely make out that it was a four-legged behemoth whose body seemed to be composed of ice crystals, yet its massive head was nowhere to be seen.

"Is this the remains of an Epic Life, the \'Polar Crystal Beast\'?"

Not only that, but it wasn\'t an Epic Life in its juvenile or growth phase. It was a fully matured, powerful epic.

Simply put, it was the carcass of a legendary monster.

Epic Lives of the same stature, all legendary, naturally contain nutritional values far greater than those of non-legendary ingredients.

This represents a grand feast and a substantial nutritional boon!

According to Mayor Cui, this ingredient... no, the carcass of this legendary monster, was obtained over half a year ago. At that time, some strong members of the Pioneer Group stayed in Shiling Town, using it as a temporary headquarters and resupply point to sweep and exterminate the powerful monsters deep in the wilderness that threatened the Tai Xuan Alliance.

The \'Extreme Cold Crystal Beast\', an Epic Life of the Legendary Realm, was one of them.

The Pioneer Group expended a great deal of effort and even lost some elites to hunt and slay this terrifying monster.

Experiences like this had occurred several times over Mayor Cui\'s career as a lord.

As the manager of an official stronghold, he was frequently called upon to entertain passing powerhouses and had assisted strong members of the Pioneer Groups multiple times in hunting and exterminating powerful monsters, gaining considerable benefits in the process.

This was one of the implicit perks of managing an official stronghold.

Mayor Cui Long had personally seen the carcasses of legendary monsters numbering into the double digits.

"At the time, the lord of the Pioneer Group took away the beast\'s head and claws, leaving us with a body that we could hardly make use of. If these materials can be put to good use in Lord Mu\'s hands and transformed into tangible power, it would be a welcomed blessing for us in Tai Xuan."

"Lord Mu, please don\'t refuse."

Mayor Cui said.

Indeed.

Just as with legendary monsters, the value of their bodies naturally varies widely.

Beings like the Giant Dragon are treasures all over, and even a sub-par dragon that hadn\'t entered the Legendary Realm, once flayed and stripped, could still yield numerous high-value materials—of course, the remains of dragons like the Bone Dragon or Frost Giant Dragon are somewhat less valuable.

Like a few days ago, after the Moon Sword Immortal had slain the Green Wood Giant Dragon, they had thoroughly cleaned up the battlefield, barely leaving behind a drop of dragon blood.

Mu Yuan had wanted to take Duo Lai to lick the carcass clean, but he didn\'t even find a hair.

Compared to Giant Dragons, the carcass of the Extreme Cold Crystal Beast is much less valuable, but as an Epic Life, its worth far surpasses that of some green skins.

It was a precious gift.

Beyond the carcass of the Extreme Cold Crystal Beast, another Rune Transport Vehicle contained over a dozen elite-grade monster ingredients.

Although there weren\'t any Earth Rock Dragons with exceedingly high nutritional value, there were still types like the Berserk Wild Bull and Shadow Chasing Demon Fox, which were no less nourishing.

This, too, was a generous gift.

Mu Yuan pondered, "These materials are indeed of great use to Tianyuan Territory. Since that\'s the case, I will accept them."

He did not decline.

Duo Lai beside him could hardly contain its drool.

Mu Yuan was not particularly fond of receiving gifts, but sometimes reciprocity was necessary. In both campaigns, the eradication of the Nest of Filth and the defense of Shiling Town, his Tianyuan Territory had indeed exerted a great effort and clinched victory. Accepting these gifts was appropriate.

Of course, both the campaign against the Nest of Filth and the support for Shiling Town were actually for his own benefit.

He knew what Mayor Cui Long wanted—during critical moments, the mayor hoped to summon powerful reinforcements. This was something Cui Long might not have spoken of, but Mu Yuan would do it anyway.

Moreover, the materials, in the hands of other lords, could only exert medium value, but in his own hands, in Duo Lai\'s mouth, they could be converted into revered powers, staying by his side forever.

Had these not been gifts from Mayor Cui, it would have been difficult and time-consuming for him to acquire so many high-order ingredients. Epic ingredients, surpassing rare commodities, were also highly unlikely to be available for purchase in the short term.

...

Mayor Cui lingered in Shiling Town for half a day before leaving with a smile.

The legendary Tianyuan Territory was right near his own domain; what kind of chosen fortune was this!

With such an emerging powerhouse nearby, would he, Cui Long, ever lack achievements?

He was set to become the most dazzling rising star among the Official Lords.

"Once the integration with Lanxing concludes, I can proceed to upgrade Shiling Town to Shiling City."

...

Not long after Mayor Cui departed, Lord Zhou Ye also took his leave.

After all, he was a lord, and his territory was still eagerly developing; it wasn\'t suitable to remain outside for too long. Otherwise, he would have had to find another way to strengthen relations with Lord Mu.
