The First Volume of Divine Land: Chapter 122 - The Beast Taming Technique (Part 2)
Third update, 50 monthly tickets added for update, explosive fourth update when exceeding 100.
If Ling Luo Feng uses the Beast Taming Technique, his strength is enough to defeat a warrior of the Pre-Heavenly Realm's fourth level. In that case, Xuan Tian can only win by unsealing his true strength.
Concealing his cultivation is the greatest trump card of Xuan Tian, which concerns his life safety. Because revealing all his trump cards to an opponent is unwise.
If there are no new trump cards in hand, exposing all the trump cards will allow the new enemy to target Xuantian's strength and lay out a killer move, which would be dangerous for Xuantian's life.
Xuantian is a steady and cautious person, and he doesn't have any deep-seated grudges with Ling Luofeng. Therefore, he didn't want to reveal all his cards in this battle. So, at the hour of Yin, he chose to enter the Yinfeng Mountains through a small path, trying to avoid this fight as much as possible.
The next day, as soon as it got light, Ling Luofeng and Yan Guanxi sat down on the second floor of a wine tower opposite the Měng Hǔ Guest House. The two leaned against the window edge, able to see the entire Měng Hǔ Guest House at a glance.
Yan Guanxi had recovered from the previous night, and the blood-red palm print on his face had disappeared, but there was still a faint mark. His eyes were fixed in the direction of the Tiger Inn, filled with anger.
"Ling Shixiong, you must avenge me for the humiliation Huang Tian gave me. I want to return it tenfold to vent my anger." Yan Guanxi's voice was very low and solemn, like a fierce beast lurking in ambush.
Ling Luo Feng fiddled with the long flute at his waist, holding it in his hand and saying: "Yan Shidi can rest assured, they have come to Yinfeng Town, they must be entering the Yinfeng Mountains. Humph, when the time comes, I will give them a big gift."
Yan Guanxi let out a low, muffled laugh and said: "If we enter the depths of the Yin Wind Mountains, where it's desolate and devoid of human habitation... Ling Shixiong, why don't we..."
Yan Guanxi stood with his palm forming a knife, slashing it across his own neck. He continued, "That little beast Huang Tian, with only a First Heaven Realm cultivation, has such strength, he's simply a freak. If we let him grow up, it will be disastrous for our Lingyun Sect. Letting them disappear in the depths of the Yin Wind Mountains would be a great merit for our sect."
Ling Luo's face suddenly became serious, her eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.
After a moment, Ling Luo Feng rubbed his brow and said: "This matter is not trivial, there's no guarantee of completely annihilating them without harming human lives. If even one person escapes, that surname-Ling from the Tianjian Sect will go mad, and our sect won't be able to protect us."
When it comes to the Tianjian Sect's Ling, Yan Guanxi's face also reveals a hint of fear, saying: "En, this matter must wait for the right opportunity, and cannot be acted upon until there is no chance of failure. However, this time we will definitely let them suffer a great loss."
……
Ling Luo and Yan Guanxi chatted leisurely, time slowly slipped away, and before long, the sun came out, shining its rays on the earth.
As the sun rose higher and higher, more and more warriors emerged from the Tiger Inn, but Xuan Tian and Feng Bu Zhi's trio had yet to make an appearance.
Ling Luo's eyebrows furrowed, saying: "How come they still haven't come out? According to reason, they shouldn't be sleeping in so late."
Yan Guanxi said: "I'll let Master Ma and Master Wang go take a look."
……
Not long after, the two Lingyun Sect disciples who were with Ling Luo and Yan Guanxi yesterday also arrived at the second floor of the Splashing Building, bringing news: Before dawn, at the hour of Yin, the four Tianjian Sect disciples had already left the Ferocious Tiger Inn.
Bang!
Yan Guanxi slammed his hand on the table and cursed: "Damn it, they actually escaped so early?"
Ling Luo's face also showed a hint of surprise, saying: "I didn't expect their vigilance to be so high. However, as long as they have entered the Yin Wind Mountains, there is no one I, Ling Luo, cannot find. Yan Shidi, don't worry, it will take at most two or three days, or at least seven or eight days, I will definitely track down their whereabouts. Let's go, we'll also enter the Yin Wind Mountains."
A few people left the wine building, left Yinfeng Town, along the highway, entered the Yinfeng Mountain Range, not long after, climbed to the top of a mountain peak next to it, with a broad view, Ling Luofeng took off the long flute at his waist and put it on his mouth to blow.
A gentle and melodious flute sound rose, the sound was not particularly pleasant to hear, but it was very smooth, making people feel a sense of dreaminess, as if everything had become somewhat blurred.
Soon, a burst of chirping sounds came from above, and more than ten small birds, about the length of a palm, flew to Ling Luo's side, surrounding him and fluttering around. Some even landed on his shoulders.
These little birds are all green in color and look almost identical. They are called green sparrows, their calls are unique and have the function of conveying information.
Until he had blown the entire tune, Ling Luo Feng stopped playing, his hands holding the flute pointing to the depths of the Yin Wind Mountains, saying: "Go!"
All the azure swallows chirped and flapped their wings as they flew in the direction that Ling Luo pointed, dispersing and leaving.
Near Yin Feng Town, within a radius of thousands of miles, there are only ordinary third-level demon beasts. Most of them are low-ranking third-level demon beasts, and few mid-ranking third-level demon beasts appear.
Xuantian and Fengbuzhi, the three of them, were in the activity area of third-grade low-level demon beasts. They could move about almost unimpeded. If a demon beast blocked their way, it couldn't withstand Xuantian's one sword strike. Even Fengbuzhi could easily annihilate third-grade low-level demon beasts.
This area of thousands of miles is a place where warriors who enter the Yin Wind Mountains from Yin Wind Town often come to seek treasure, and it's very difficult to find good spiritual herbs.
So, within a radius of thousands of miles, Xuan Tian and Feng Bu Zhi's trio had no demonic beasts to deal with, they would charge forward recklessly; if there were any, they would directly strike them down.
Their destination is deep within the Yin Wind Mountain Range, entering from the Yin Wind Mountain Range, at least two thousand miles away. There, not only do third-class middle and upper-tier demon beasts appear, but occasionally, even third-class demon beast overlords will emerge, posing a certain level of danger to warriors in the Fourth Realm of the Innate Stage.
But Xuan Tian and others want to find the true fog grass and Xuan Yang flower, they can only be found in dangerous places. Safe places have basically been trodden by warriors, safety is there, but wanting to gain something is as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Xuantian, Fengbuzhi and the other two joined forces, their strength far surpassed that of a fourth-level Wugong practitioner in the Xiantian realm. Even a third-level Yao beast overlord might not be able to defeat them in one battle. Therefore, although the area 2,000 miles outside of Yinfeng Town, deep within the Yinfeng mountain range, was a dangerous zone for Wugong practitioners below the fifth level of the Xiantian realm, the safety coefficient of Xuantian and his three companions was still very high.
In just half a day, Xuan Tian and Feng Bu Zhi's three-man team had already ventured deep into the Yin Wind Mountains for thousands of miles. Ahead of them was the territory of mid-tier level 3 demonic beasts, whose strength was equivalent to that of a third-realm warrior in the Pre-Heavenly realm. Generally speaking, warriors in the first and second realms of the Pre-Heavenly realm would stop at this point when entering the Yin Wind Mountains. Only some groups consisting of several warriors dared to continue deeper.
Xuantian and Feng Buzhi, the three of them, ventured deep into a thousand miles beyond, still without stopping, heading towards the deeper parts of the Yin Wind Mountain Range. The third-level middle-tier demonic beasts they encountered were easily slaughtered by the few of them. Occasionally, when they ran into third-level upper-tier demonic beasts, with the combined strength of the four of them, killing it was not difficult either.
As dusk approached, Xuan Tian and Feng Bu Zhi's trio had already ventured over 1,700 miles into the Yin Wind Mountains from the town of Yin Wind, encountering increasingly more third-level upper-tier demonic beasts.
As night was approaching, the four of them found a large forest and dug out a tree cave on a giant tree fifty meters above the ground. This is the best way for warriors in the Yin Wind Mountains to spend the night.
On the first day, they ventured over 1,700 miles into the Yin Wind Mountain Range. Apart from killing some demonic beasts along the way and obtaining a few third-grade demonic cores, they didn't find even half a stalk of spiritual grass.
Night was the domain of ferocious beasts, with loud roars echoing everywhere. The four of them spent a peaceful night in the hollow tree and set off again towards the deeper parts of the Dark Wind Mountains the next day.
They killed a few more third-class mid-tier demon beasts and one third-class upper-tier demon beast. Xuan Tian, Feng Bu Zhi, and the other two finally ventured 2,000 miles into the Yin Wind Mountain Range.
Arrived at this point, it is another boundary. Most of the warriors and groups below the fourth level of Xiantian have stopped here, because after entering the Yin Wind Mountains for 2,000 miles from Yin Wind Town, the probability of encountering a third-level demon beast will increase greatly. For warriors below the fourth level of Xiantian, encountering a third-level demon beast is almost impossible to resist.
Even a warrior with four layers of innate realm would have to flee in disarray when encountering a third-level demonic beast overlord.
Two thousand miles in, if measured from the beginning of the Yin Wind Mountains' outermost range, this place is already over four thousand miles deep and nearing the central region of the Yin Wind Mountains.
The central area of the Yin Wind Mountains is a place where even high-level demon beasts of grade 5 or 6 will appear.
At this point, Xuan Tian and Feng Bu Zhi's three people no longer moved forward, but instead searched around, observing the mountainous terrain, looking for the spiritual veins where the primordial energy of heaven and earth gathered. Only places with abundant primordial energy had a chance to grow Xuan-level spiritual grass.
"The valley on the right, the heavenly and earthly yuanqi is extremely dense. In many places in the valley, the heavenly and earthly yuanqi has condensed into mist. There must be a Xuan-level spiritual herb growing."
Climbing up a small hill that was not very high, Sun Yiqiu pointed to a small valley on the right and said excitedly.
Xuantian glanced at the mountain valley and said, "Let's go take a look."
The valley is not large, about 60 meters wide and over 100 meters long.
Xuantian and Fengbuzhi's three people, as soon as they entered the valley, felt the thick heaven and earth aura in the air, and were overjoyed.
"Hahaha—cough"
Four people entered the valley, less than fifty meters in, when suddenly a burst of laughter similar to human voices came from the dense fog ahead. Immediately afterwards, a white shadow rushed out from within the valley.
It was a giant gorilla, over three meters tall, with two arms that were more than two meters long. Its massive fists pounded the ground, producing a loud "Boom! Boom!" sound that the four people could feel clearly. The ground shook as the giant gorilla ran, showing just how enormous its strength was.
"Ugh!"
The white ape ran to the front of Xuan Tian and Feng Bu Zhi, thirty meters away, stopped, let out a loud roar, and fiercely pounded its fists on the ground, issuing a warning to Xuan Tian and his four companions.
Xuantian's gaze fell on the white gibbon, saying: "This is a fully grown White Ape, a third-tier upper-stage demon beast. The White Ape has a very violent temper and its strength ranks first among third-tier upper-stage demon beasts. It's more formidable than the ones we encountered earlier, so be careful."
