Chapter 370: Chapter 368: A Spirit Beast Friend of Mine_
The Seven -Colored Pheasant Demon didn’t hesitate and quickly nodded its little pointed head.
It was born with a knack for illusion techniques and holds a certain resistance and ability to break them, so it confidently accepted Lu Xuan’s proposed bet. Seeing this, a mysterious smile surfaced on Lu Xuan’s face as he pulled out a pale yellow jade quilt from his storage bag.
“Keep a good eye on it then.”
He gave the order and left the Ecstasy Heart Sutra for the Seven-Coloured Pheasant Demon to observe.
Perhaps due to its young and fiery disposition, the chicken was more vulnerable than he anticipated, it surrendered in less than a moment.
“It’s your first time facing a challenging task, that can be understandable.” Lu Xuan calmly put away the pale yellow jade quilt, looking at the Seven- Colored Pheasant Demon filled with desire with no way to vent it, he sighed internally.
All three of the problematic mystical beasts were now resolved. The process of taming the cubs became much smoother, with only minor hiccups when introducing new training content.
After all, these are demon beasts, inherently rebellious and unyielding, they can t possibly follow Lu Xuan’s orders completely.
But this small problem was quickly and easily solved.
One day, after Lu Xuan finished training the many young beasts, he floated in the air, clapping his hands.
“Wait a moment, I’d like to introduce a magical beast friend of mine. Some of you might already know him.”
As the voice fell, a small and exquisite monkey emerged from his back, its eyes gleamed like brilliant red jade, shyly looking at the many demon beasts below.
It was the White Jade Sky Monkey. After visiting Lu Xuan’s Cave Mansion, it followed him to the Taming Beast Stone Hall.
At the sight of the White Jade Monkey, more than a dozen magical beasts on the ground changed their colors in unison, prostrating themselves without moving.
The little monkey scratched the few white hairs behind its head, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Noticing its movement, the young beasts below quivered unanimously.
They were all too familiar with this White Jade Monkey.
There are many Guardian Beasts within the Sky Sword Sect, classified into various levels according to their strength and rank. The White Jade Sky Monkey is at the top, both in terms of rank and personal strength.
Moreover, it’s naturally combative and is from the same batch of mystical beasts. They could be described as being dominated by this little monkey since childhood.
The White Jade Monkey grinned at Lu Xuan, imitating the demeanor of an obedient and eager student.
“There will always be a higher mountain…”
Lu Xuan looked at the reaction of the audience below and couldn’t help but sigh.
” If anyone disobeys in the future, I’ll invite my mystical beast friend over for a little sparring session.”
Lu Xuan leveraged the reputation of the White Jade Sky Monkey for his cause.
The White Jade Sky Monkey on one side quickly nodded. Its bloodline inherently contained a fighting gene. Having eaten so many spirit fruits and consumed spiritual juice from Lu Xuan’s hand, it naturally agreed to Lu Xuan’s proposal.
After it left, the group of young beasts noticeably started behaving much better, each earnestly completing Lu Xuan’s training content.
After some time, when Lu Xuan saw that all the young beasts had reached the standard, he informed Zhong Hao and asked him to come for inspection and testing.
Two other cultivators from the Taming Beast Hall, both of Foundation Establishment Late-term cultivation, came along.
They went to the Stone Hall where Lu Xuan was located, ordering the young beasts to complete various tasks and devised simple formation restrictions to test the different abilities of the young beasts.
“I knew from long ago that Junior Brother Lu had a deep understanding of the Spiritual Plant Path, I didn’t expect his Beast Mastery Skill would be equally impressive.”
The Four-winged Thunder Tiger cub has always been a bone of contention among the sect’s guardian beasts. Two junior brothers tried to tame it in the past but had to give up eventually.”
As for the Lion Bird Beast, its spiritual intelligence is indeed low. To tell the truth, the Taming Beast Hall had planned to abandon it and use it elsewhere. However, it showed considerable progress during today’s test, and has reached the qualifying standards in all aspects.”
The Seven-Colored Pheasant Demon is about to lay eggs soon, and Junior Brother Lu was able to get it to lay eggs voluntarily, which is a great contribution.”
A thin, old man in the late stages of Foundation Establishment came before Lu Xuan, exclaiming in admiration.
“Senior Brother is too kind. I’ve merely interacted with them with a heart full of enthusiasm. Over time, I’ve built a deep relationship with them, so they don t resist my training, which is why we have such results today.”
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
Fortunately, his special ability allowed him to detect the current state of the spirit beasts, thus dealing with problems at their source.
If he had forced them into submission with brute force, it might have caused a rebound effect.
“You’ve worked hard during this time, Junior Brother Lu.”
“Here are five hundred sword marks as a reward for your efforts in taming the spirit beasts.”
Furthermore, in light of your excellent performance in the process of domesticating spirit beasts, the Taming Beast Hall has decided to reward you with an auxiliary magic artifact.”
The thin, old man took a jade badge from his storage bag. The jade badge was filled with dense spiritual patterns, with numerous vivid demon beast designs on its edges as if they were alive and about to leap from the badge.
“This item is known as the Spirit Beast Plaque. It is a unique artifact refined by the Taming Beast Hall. It is akin to a storage bag specifically for spirit beasts and can be used to store them.”
Even if the spirit beasts stay inside it for a long time, they’ll remain lively and active, and no abnormalities will arise.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother.”
Lu Xuan expressed his gratitude, taking the sword marks and Spirit Beast
Plaque from the hands of the thin, old man.
Although he currently had a third-grade Life Bag and a fifth rank Gluttonous Insect Pouch, which could preserve the life force of the spirit beasts, the Life Bag was just third-grade and not very useful for high-ranked magical beasts, plus its limited space was gradually becoming obsolete for Lu Xuan.
The fifth-rank Gluttonous Insect Pouch was too precious. With Lu Xuan adhering to the principle of not flaunting wealth, he had never taken it out in front of fellow sect members.
Alright, may our paths cross again in the distant mountains and rivers. Strive to become the Guardian Beasts of our sect and lead a secure life. Do not let me down.”
Lu Xuan waved at the young beasts below, smiling.
“Roar!”
The young beasts roared softly, showing varying degrees of reluctance to part ways.
Especially the Lion Bird Beast, it ignored the rudimentary restrictions restraining it and rushed directly towards Lu Xuan with its robust flesh body. Its majestic lion head whimpered.
“Remember what I told you, you’ve always been outstanding, you just didn’t realize it.”
“I look forward to seeing you in the core area of the sect.”
Lu Xuan gently rubbed its golden mane, speaking softly.
Then, amidst the reluctant gazes of the young beasts, he departed, riding a sword light.
Returning to his cave mansion, he activated the Flowing Light Formation. The fastest among them, the Wind Falcon, transformed into a streak of blue light and landed on his head, bouncing up and bouncing back.
The Cloud Leopard sneaked out from the forest silently and came to Lu Xuan. It sniffed here and there, its grey-white fur on its ears constantly twitching, full of curiosity in its green eyes.
Lu Xuan swiftly comforted the Cloud Leopard, assuring it that despite him taming over a dozen spirit beasts outside the cave mansion, the creatures of the cave mansion were still his primary concern, and the others were just passing guests.
Afterward, he came to the Spirit Field to inspect the many spirit plants.
During the time he spent taming the young beasts, several types of spirit plants in his cave mansion were about to fully mature.
