Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming Chapter 387: 384: Coaxing the Spiritual Beast

Chapter 387: Chapter 384: Coaxing the Spiritual Beast

Qin Feng extended a finger and poked the soft belly of the Pangolin Demon.

Hmm, soft, the feel isn’t bad.

The Pangolin Demon’s eyes were lifeless, letting this man whom it could not contend with touch it as he pleased, without even a hint of resistance in its heart.

Since it couldn’t beat him, it might as well let him do as he wished.

Seeing that it was being docile, Qin Feng didn’t tease it anymore. He directly collected it into the Demon Refining Pot and subdued it using the Pot.

Monts later, when he released it, the Pangolin Demon seed a bit more lively.

It wasn’t just because the Demon Refining Pot had refined it, but also because it knew that from now on, the man before it was its master.

Since the master had chosen to subdue it, it ant he had no intention of killing it, so the demon felt much more at ease.

Among the Demon Clan, strength reigned supre; Qin Feng’s power had already made it start to feel submissive, and now being directly refined by the strong laws of the Demon Refining Pot, it was completely transford into Qin Feng’s subordinate with no possibility of betrayal. Thus, the Pangolin quickly adjusted its attitude.

It lay prostrate in front of Qin Feng, rubbing its little head against Qin Feng’s legs, displaying a ta appearance with none of its previous ferocity.

“Go, call over your kin.”

Qin Feng commanded.

He needed to subdue all of the Pangolin Demon Beasts with the Demon Refining Pot.

Though these demon beasts were weak and easily dealt with by him, for the ordinary mbers of the Qin Family at the Foundation Establishnt Realm, they were a formidable existence. He did not want to leave behind any hidden dangers. It would be regrettable if any of the demons rebelled and bit or injured a clan mber after he left.

The Pangolin Demon gave a grunt as if to agree and burrowed underground, soon bringing back a nest of seven or eight Pangolin Demon Beasts. Then, with Qin Feng’s signal, under the lead of the large Pangolin, they entered the space within the Demon Refining Pot and beca subdued.

Afterward, through so questioning, much to Qin Feng’s delight, the Pangolin Demon actually brought him good news. In the deepest part of their cave, they had indeed found a tal vein.

Excited, Qin Feng directly had the Pangolin Demon guide him to inspect the vein.

After so exploration, he found that the vein was a Red Copper Vein that was quite extensive, stretching dozens of miles deep into Qifeng Mountain without him finding the end.

This discovery filled Qin Feng with joy.

Because it ant that the Qin Family, besides their ancestral skill of cultivating Spiritual Fields and growing Spiritual Objects, finally had another potential avenue to prosperity.

Although Red Copper was not a particularly rare or precious Artifact Refining Material, it was widely used. Many Magic Artifacts, Spiritual Artifacts, and even Magical Treasures required Red Copper, which was priced slightly higher than the most commonly used Refined Iron.

As long as this vein was mined, the Qin Family would gain a continuous supply of Cultivation Resources for the Cultivators of the clan.

Of course, the Qin Family alone, even if Qin Guanbao and Qin Long both advanced to the Golden Core Realm, definitely could not protect such a vast Red Copper Vein.

Qin Feng, even though a true disciple of the Beast Taming Sect with considerable strength, ultimately had to return to his Sect and couldn’t possibly remain guarding Qifeng Mountain all the ti.

Therefore, if the Qin Family wanted to utilize this vein, they ultimately had to rely on the Beast Taming Sect.

Only by having the Red Copper Vein under the na of the Beast Taming Sect could they ensure that the Qin Family would not face too much interference while mining.

Even if nearby Sect powers coveted it, they would not dare to offend the Beast Taming Sect by trying to take a share for themselves.

Of course, the Qin Family would also need to pay a corresponding price. According to the rules of the Cultivation World, after a vassal power under a Sect discovered a vein, they had to surrender at least half of the mined materials to the Sect.

A vein was different from the three hundred mu of Spiritual Field that the Qin Family owned in Kun City; the output from the Spiritual Fields was not much, and surrendering around twenty to thirty percent was enough to gain the Sect’s protection.

But a vein as large as this involved too great an interest, and if the Qin Family took the larger share, it could easily cause dissatisfaction among so, and it would also break the unwritten rules of the various major Sects of the Cultivation World.

In fact, many families or small forces would hand over most of their resources to Sects in exchange for protection and safety.

It was only Sects like the Beast Taming Sect with their own set of principles that would not spoil their reputation for the sake of a vein, as they could easily wipe out the Qin Family with a little trickery and monopolize the Red Copper Ore.

Especially since the Beast Taming Sect Alliance had occupied the Red Fla Demon Realm and had countless material resources, they would not ruin the hard-earned reputation for a re Red Copper Vein. Plus, with Qin Feng, a true disciple, diating, he should be able to secure many benefits for the Qin Family.

In reality, being able to take half of the inco from the vein would already be a windfall for the Qin Family.

After all, the Qin Family had only a little over a hundred cultivators, and even after cultivating a few more from the young ones in the family due to the recent increase in cultivation resources, the number hadn’t reached two hundred.

Such a small number of cultivators could easily obtain sufficient cultivation resources by simply taking advantage of the benefits from the ore veins.

After inspecting the ore vein, Qin Feng stood up, commanding the Two-Legged Flying Dragon and flew straight to another location inhabited by a Demon Core Realm Demon Beast.

“Whooo…”

Before they could arrive, a crane’s cry suddenly sounded in front of them.

Following that, a White Crane with a wingspan nearly thirty ters wide rose from a small lake in the valley below.

This White Crane was extrely majestic, with a graceful and elegant posture, exuding a touch of Immortal Energy. It was no wonder it was one of the Spiritual Birds most beloved by cultivators, so much so that many referred to the Spiritual Crane as the Immortal Crane.

After circling in the void, the White Crane flew over even faster than the Two-Legged Flying Dragon, and with a clear cry, words ca from its beak: “Who goes there? This is my place of cultivation, please halt your advance. Or else, don’t bla for being inhospitable.”

“I am Qin Feng, a True Disciple of the current Beast Taming Sect!”

Qin Feng chuckled lightly, stating his identity directly.

“What?”

Upon hearing this, the White Crane first showed shock, and then beca furious: “The Mountain Gate of your Beast Taming Sect is tens of thousands of miles away. We are cultivating in such a remote place, and even here you do not leave us be?

Hmph, the Beast Taming Sect truly has the ambition of a ruthless wolf, forcing us of the Demon Clan to slaughter each other, and now you’ve co so far to deal with us.

The battle disturbance caused just now by the Pangolin, that was your doing, wasn’t it? Since you’re here, it’s clear that the foolish Pangolin has been defeated—has it been subdued or killed by you, or did it escape?”

“It was no match for and has submitted to !”

“Hmph!”

The White Crane snorted coldly, an air of disdain in its voice: “You call it submission, but isn’t it just being bound by Prohibition, with its life and death now entirely in your hands, devoid of freedom!

You’ve co here to subdue too, haven’t you? Dream on. Even if I’m not your match, I would choose to flee, never submitting to you!”

“Oh?”

Qin Feng was sowhat surprised: “You Spiritual Cranes generally get along well in various sects, so why are you so defiant?”

“I escaped from a Cultivator Sect!”

The Spiritual Crane declared angrily: “Back then, that sect treated us Spiritual Beasts as slaves and thugs, fighting to the death for them, and what treatnt did we receive in return?

When I was severely injured, they were unwilling to use Spiritual dicine to heal , which was bad enough, but they even intended to kill for Artifact Refining, to take my Demon Core for Elixir Pill production—how could I tolerate that?

Tell , how could I harbor any good feelings towards you cultivators?”

“I see!”

Qin Feng nodded: “No wonder you chose to live here alone, without a clan. You’re actually a fugitive.”

Normally, Spiritual Cranes lived with their tribe in a piece of Spiritual Land, and it was rare to find a lone crane like this one.

He then curiously asked, “How did you escape afterward?”

“I took advantage of the cultivator who wanted to kill when he was off guard, attacked and killed him, stole his Elixir Pills, and fled here.”

Qin Feng was surprised: “Didn’t that cultivator have any control over you?”

“Hmph, the thod they used to restrain was the Spiritual Beast Ring, a technique from your Beast Taming Sect.”

The White Crane said coldly: “However, he kept the Spiritual Beast Ring in his Storage Bag, and he failed to activate it in ti before I killed him. Later, the Spiritual Beast Ring fell into my hands and I refined and destroyed it!”

It looked at Qin Feng with a frosty gaze and declared: “In my life, what I hate the most are cultivators like you who use Tad Spiritual Beasts to fight against the Demon Clan, and your Beast Taming Sect is the major enemy of all Demon Cultivators in my clan.

You seem young, and your aura suggests that you’ve ford your Golden Core not too long ago. What, have you advanced to the Golden Core Realm and now wish to subdue a few Demon Core Realm Demon Beasts to serve you?

But you have chosen the wrong target. Bold enough to co after , do you really think I can’t kill you!”

Qin Feng sneered, “Why don’t you ntion the countless slaughters your Demon Clan committed when you invaded the Biluo Great World generations ago!

It wasn’t who restrained myself from starting that ancient war. When countless Demon Kings and their soldiers were slaughtering the Human Clan, the situation was not like it is now.

Even now, in many remote places, there are still nurous Demon Beasts that feed on humans. You hate us cultivators, yet you’re ignorant of how much the Human Clan despises your kind!”

“However, knowing full well that I am a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, and that I’m certainly not lacking ways to deal with your kind, you still have the confidence to kill . That being the case, do you possess so kind of special divine skills?

Good, very good. I do like Demon Beasts with formidable abilities. Show what you’ve got and let see what you’re capable of!”

“Youngster, how arrogant!”

The White Crane roared in anger, and with a turn of its body, its wings flapped fiercely several tis. Instantly, thousands of sword Qi in the shape of crane feathers flew out like a fierce storm, hurtling towards Qin Feng.

“Ah?”

Qin Feng was montarily startled upon seeing this, then a smile appeared on his face. “I didn’t expect you to be a Spiritual Crane who has cultivated the Sword Dao. It seems the sect you belonged to was a Sword Cultivation Sect.”

As he spoke, he slightly paused his footing, commanding the Two-Legged Flying Dragon to control the wind and fly, dodging the sword Qi strikes.

However, the White Crane flapped its wings quickly, and in comparison, the dodging movents of the Two-Legged Flying Dragon seed slower, and in a mont they were caught up by the sword Qi.

Seeing that there was no escape, Qin Feng then brandished the Sky Battle Halberd, performing the Azure Dragon Sea Chaos move. He swept across the void, shattering the thousands of sword Qi.

“Not bad.”

Qin Feng nodded in appreciation and then shook his head, “Your sword Qi may be sharp, but it is too scattered; it can’t possibly harm .”

“Hmph, if scattered sword Qi can’t hurt you, what about this?”

The White Crane’s form changed, suddenly turning into a gaunt old man. He then opened his mouth wide and spewed out two Flying Swords.

These two Flying Swords, shaped like crane beaks, paired and complented each other, resonating from a distance with a dangerous edge, slashing towards Qin Feng from both sides.

Qin Feng fought with the White Crane for a while, holding his halberd. He discovered that this White Crane was actually proficient in several sword techniques, though they were sowhat rough, clearly lacking a good inheritance of sword techniques and guidance from a renowned teacher. Otherwise, its combat power would have been even stronger.

After understanding the White Crane’s tactics, Qin Feng no longer held back. Swinging the great spear with force, he transford into an Azure Dragon, entwining the two Flying Swords within and preventing the old man, into which the White Crane had transford, from controlling the swords with finger movents, rendering them unable to break free.

Qin Feng drove the Two-Legged Flying Dragon towards it, “Now that you’re without your Flying Swords, you are no match for . Why not surrender and submit now?”

“In your dreams!”

The White Crane’s expression struggled, but in the end, it abandoned the two Flying Swords that it had cultivated together with its life essence. Reverting to its original form, it turned and fled.

Although the two Flying Swords were refined from its own beak and had been nurtured over hundreds of years, losing them was a pity. However, it was less willing to be captured by Qin Feng and beco soone’s tad Spiritual Beast once again.

“Thinking of escape?”

Qin Feng sneered, taking a sudden step forward and stepping through the void, he used the Shrinking Ground to Inch Divine Power. With just a few steps, he appeared directly behind the White Crane.

Following that, his form changed to a thirty-foot Giant, winding up a massive fist and smashing it hard onto the back of the White Crane. The forceful blow caused the erstwhile majestic White Crane to let out a mournful cry, as feathers scattered everywhere. Its form plumted and crashed into the branches below, tumbling to the ground.

Qin Feng’s figure flashed, following close behind and landing on the ground. He stepped on the back of the White Crane, preventing it from rising no matter how much it struggled.

“Will you submit?”

Qin Feng demanded.

“Never!”

The White Crane replied angrily, “Even in death, I will not submit to you.”

As it spoke, its inner energy began to surge, preparing to self-destruct its Demon Core.

Damn it, this Spiritual Crane is so unyielding?

Qin Feng cursed inwardly and quickly lifted his leg, stomping hard again on the back of the White Crane. The powerful True Yuan he exerted scattered the Spiritual Crane’s attempt to self-destruct. Then he said, “In that case, I’ll give you a chance to live without having to submit to . Do you want it?”

He did not choose to put the White Crane into the Demon Refining Pot. A creature as headstrong as this Spiritual Bird, even if put into the Demon Refining Pot, would probably self-destruct before it could be refined.

“You, what do you want?”

Upon hearing Qin Feng say that he would not force it into submission, the Spiritual Crane temporarily halted, choosing not to imdiately self-destruct.

After all, it did not wish to die if it could live.

“Do you know of the Qin Family in Kun City outside of Qifeng Mountain?”

“I do. A small cultivator family with weak strength; I saw them a few years ago hunting common demon beasts in the outskirts of Qifeng Mountain. Their family head is just at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishnt realm.”

“It seems you know quite a bit.”

Qin Feng smiled and said, “However, the Old Family Master has now reached the late stage of Foundation Establishnt.”

“So what.”

The White Crane disdainfully said, “I see his lifespan is about to be exhausted. Even if he has advanced to the late stage now, he doesn’t have many years left to live.”

“That’s right, the Old Family Master is already over 170 years old.”

Qin Feng said, “As for , I originally ca from the Qin Family. The reason I ca to deal with you this ti is to help my family occupy Qifeng Mountain and give them a chance to develop.

But since I am a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, I must return to the sect, and the family cannot do without a powerful cultivator to hold down the fort. Hence, I want you to choose to follow the Old Family Master.”

“Him? An old man whose lifespan is nearing its end. Why should I follow him?”

“That’s exactly why I’m asking you to follow him.”

Qin Feng smiled and said, “Aren’t you unwilling to submit to ? Let’s choose a compromise. You don’t have to submit to , you only need to submit to the Old Family Master. I can assure you that once the Old Family Master’s lifespan is exhausted, I will set you free!”

“Really?”

The White Crane was sowhat reluctant, “I have said that I am unwilling to beco a pawn of your human clan to fight against the demon clan.”

“How can that be called being a pawn? Moreover, the demon clans fight fiercely amongst themselves, and their relationships aren’t that good, right?”

Qin Feng smiled and said, “As long as you agree, I can find you so more powerful sword techniques to cultivate later. I could even give you so tips on cultivation. It seems like the sword technique you’ve been using is sothing you stealthily learned. It’s a bit chaotic and lacks a systematic approach. As long as you agree to follow the Old Family Master until his lifespan cos to an end, I’ll even give you a few additional sword techniques.”

“You don’t have any sches, do you?”

The White Crane was moved by Qin Feng’s conditions, but it still hesitated, “Your human clan is the most cunning. What if I agree, and in the end, you don’t keep your promise?”

“Let’s do this, I swear on the na of the ancestor of the Beast Taming Sect.”

Qin Feng spoke with righteousness, “As long as you agree to submit wholeheartedly before the Old Family Master’s lifespan is exhausted, and to assist the Old Family Master in all his work, I will give you all the things I promised you before, and after the Old Family Master passes away, I will set you free. If I break this oath, may the ancestor forsake .”

Seeing Qin Feng actually make an oath in the na of the Beast Taming Sect’s ancestor, the White Crane imdiately believed him.

It thought to itself that since the old man wouldn’t live for many more years, it might as well agree. Once the old man is dead, not only would it regain its freedom, but it would also gain so many benefits. Once its cultivation is organized into a system, its cultivation is bound to improve further. Perhaps there would also be a chance to advance to the Purple Mansion realm.

With this in mind, it imdiately nodded, “Alright, I agree.”

“A wise decision.”

Qin Feng praised with a chuckle and retracted his foot, allowing the White Crane to stand.

“Now, I’ll take you to et the Old Family Master so he can place a Binding Spell within you. After all, you have already agreed to submit to , so make sure not to resist. Rember to willingly open your spirit and take the Binding Spell deep into your Sea of Consciousness.”

The White Crane hesitated, “Since I have agreed to submit, I will not rebel before the Family Head passes away. But do we really need a Prohibition Magic Axis?”

“That’s not up for discussion, without so form of restraint, what if once I leave the family, you harbor the desire to kill? Our Qin Family has no way to contain you right now.”

Qin Feng imdiately shook his head in refusal. Seeing so hesitation in the White Crane’s eyes, he said, “Don’t worry, you’re just a Spiritual Beast at the Demon Core realm. The Beast Taming Sect has countless Spiritual Beasts stronger than you.

To tell the truth, there are many on that are stronger than you, otherwise I wouldn’t easily give you to the Old Family Master.

As a true disciple of the sect, I wouldn’t break my word over a Spiritual Beast at the Demon Core realm like you!”
