Alex had already spent some time learning about beast biology and how their cultivation worked.
He had a theory that when normal beasts turned into spirit beasts, it happened when they managed to strengthen their brains and raise their intelligence to a new level.
To really confirm this, he needed live specimens and Professor Faerith's help.
He then turned his attention to the huge snake's remains.
He could use the skin and bones to craft armor, but that still left a lot of flesh.
After thinking it over, he decided to cook the snake and turned it into a meal for Quartz, Olivia, and Emily.
He did not feel any guilt about it. In the cultivation world, cooking spirit beasts was normal.
People called it spirit food.
Spirit food gave many benefits to those who ate it, such as better recovery and small permanent improvements to their bodies and qi.
After some more discussion with the others, Alex agreed to test his new cultivation method on Petricia and the other goblin first.
