Chapter 113: Methods of Taming Beasts
Back at the cliff under the magical peach tree, Zhang Liang took Xiao Meng and Bei Mingzi to rest there. Bei Mingzi was busy removing toxins from his body, while Xiao Meng, the little girl, was snoring under the tree, probably because she was tired. Zhang Liang sat on the ground and began to search for methods to tame spirit beasts in his mind.
In the world of cultivation, there are many secrets about taming beasts. Some sects even use this as their main cultivation direction. Every cultivator often controls several beasts of various kinds. They can not only help in battle, but also promote the master's cultivation progress. One of the special ways of taming beasts is to sign a contract with the beast. In this way, part of the spiritual power absorbed by the beast during the cultivation process will be transferred to the master, thereby accelerating the master's cultivation progress.
This method is indeed convenient, but it is not the right way after all, and Zhang Liang is not interested in it. He thought to himself: "Forget it, let's find a way that can benefit both parties."
After a while, Zhang Liang selected a suitable secret book and immersed himself in it to comprehend and practice. Half a day later, when he opened his eyes, he found that Bei Mingzi had successfully dispelled the toxins in his body and was making a fire to cook.
At this moment, they were in the wilderness, and the three of them had no food with them. Zhang Liang and Bei Mingzi were fine, and they would not have any effect if they did not eat for a few days, but Xiao Meng was not. Bei Mingzi cleverly captured a wild sika deer and planned to barbecue it to satisfy his hunger. The little monkey was still squatting on the spiritual peach tree, not daring to leave, as if he was still afraid of the bonfire or Bei Mingzi in front of him and did not dare to approach.
"Wake up!" Bei Mingzi looked at Zhang Liang with a smile, feeling particularly happy. If Zhang Liang had not been there to help him, he would have been seriously injured even if he had not died, not to mention bringing back a spiritual peach tree. He would have had to flee in a panic, and would have had to spend several years to detoxify, and he could not easily do anything during this period. It was really risky.
With Zhang Liang's help, the poison was quickly removed without any damage to his cultivation. Now he was more confident that he could bring the magical peach tree back safely.
Zhang Liang nodded to Bei Mingzi, but did not talk much. Instead, he took out a spirit beast pill and prepared to use it to control the little monkey. He first separated a trace of green light from his soul and merged it into the pill, then continued to form seals and hit the spirit pill.
"It's done! This is the Beast Taming Pill." Zhang Liang smiled. This pill specially refined by him has the effect of taming spiritual beasts. The next step is to let the little golden monkey eat it.
In the world of cultivation, many spiritual beasts are smarter than humans, and there are many ways to distinguish the authenticity of elixirs. However, in the current world, spiritual beasts are scarce, so there are naturally not so many detection methods.
"Little monkey, come here and eat this!" Zhang Liang smiled, looked at the golden little monkey that had been staring at him not far away, and threw the pill in his hand over.
The little monkey took the spirit beast pill without any suspicion and swallowed it mouthful after mouthful without hesitation. Not long after, the little monkey felt drowsy and snuggled up to the peach tree, and fell asleep in the blink of an eye.
In an instant, Zhang Liang flashed and grabbed the golden little monkey leaning against the peach tree.
"Haha, little guy, you won't suffer any loss if you follow me!" Zhang Liang said with a smile.
"Are you taming it using the method of taming animals?" Bei Mingzi had sharp eyes and immediately realized what Zhang Liang had done.
"Yes, it is the beast tamer." Zhang Liang answered easily.
"Can this technique be taught to others?" Bei Mingzi's eyes flickered, and he immediately understood the benefits of taming beasts. Although spirit beasts grow slowly, this golden monkey could fight him to a draw a few decades ago, but now he has entered the realm of immortals on land, while this monkey is still at the level of a master. However, spirit beasts have a long lifespan, and even if Bei Mingzi dies, this monkey may still be able to maintain its current combat power and realm, and even live for hundreds of years. For a sect, if there is such a spirit beast, it is equivalent to having an extra trump card; for outstanding disciples in the sect, if they have a spirit beast, they do not need a guardian to accompany them.
“It can indeed be taught, but ordinary people can’t learn it. One must at least reach the limit of a master’s cultivation to learn it, and it is also very dangerous. Taming beasts is a special contract concluded with spiritual consciousness as the medium, which requires splitting off a trace of the soul. You can learn it, but others…” Zhang Liang smiled and shook his head.
"Is that so? Then can you teach me?" Bei Mingzi asked expectantly.
"Sure!" Zhang Liang said generously. Since he had decided to join the Taoist Tianzong, he had to show some sincerity. Even if he showed them skills like alchemy and weapon refining, they might not be able to learn them. As for formations, it would be even more difficult to get started. Only the method of taming beasts could be taught.
However, Zhang Liang did not teach all of them, but taught Bei Mingzi a simpler method of taming beasts. This method of taming beasts was not reliable, and it also required resisting the resistance and impact of the spirit beast's soul, which was somewhat dangerous and far less comprehensive than the method of taming beasts that Zhang Liang mastered.
Soon, Bei Mingzi mastered this simple method of taming beasts.
"It is indeed the ancient method. Now that you have this, it will not be unfair to you if I take you to join our Tianzong!" Bei Mingzi laughed heartily.
