Celestial being

The middle-aged deacon took the waistband handed over by Yuan Ming with a complicated expression, turned around and entered the room again, and then took out a rough notebook with a gray-brown animal skin cover.

After Yuan Ming took it, he immediately went to find a place to read it.

This time, he read faster, but because of the rich content, it took him more than an hour to finish reading it all.

In this medicinal collection handbook of the Second Cave Master, he found descriptions of black scale fruit and Yin Marrow Liquid as he wished. The former is a black fruit that grows on some shady cliffs in Shiwan Mountain.

The latter requires spinal fluid extracted from specific poisonous insects, which are special spiritual materials used to refine elixirs.

The elixirs and spiritual materials recorded in this handbook are even rarer, and are naturally one level higher than those in "Herborist Collection", which greatly enriches Yuan Ming's knowledge in this area.

After he returned the letter, he left Guizang Pavilion with the middle-aged deacon's puzzled eyes and sigh.

Coincidentally, on the way back to Huolian Hall, Yuan Ming saw a familiar figure in the distance, it was Wulu.

The latter also noticed him and instead of avoiding him, he took the initiative to walk towards him.

"Brother Yuan, long time no see." Wu Lu took the initiative to clasp his fists with a smile on his face.

"Brother Wulu, why are you here?" Yuan Ming glanced around and didn't see Kun Tu.

"Oh, I just came back from a mission and was about to return to the Beast Taming Hall. Let's go for a walk?" Ulu said with a smile on his face.

Yuan Ming nodded, and the two of them walked side by side towards the Fire Hall and the Beast Taming Hall.

"Speaking of which, I really envy Brother Yuan. He is so lucky to be appreciated by the Lord of the Third Cave." Wu Lu took the initiative to speak.

"Compared to me, you are more curious. Why did you suddenly enter the Biluo Cave?" Yuan Ming smiled and did not answer. Instead, he changed the subject and brought the topic to the other party.

The last time he saw the other party, he was still with Kuntu. There were some topics that he was not comfortable talking about and did not want to talk about.

Wulu did not hide anything, and said frankly: "Kuntu appreciates me quite a lot. After he became an inner disciple, he used his power to take me as a servant and follow him around as a lackey."

Hearing the term "dog-legged", Yuan Ming couldn't help but laugh.

"I just heard that you came back from a mission. Normally... the servants at the Execution Hall shouldn't be able to accept missions, right?" Yuan Ming asked doubtfully.

Hearing this question, Ulu obviously paused.

He looked around and found that there was no one else around, then he heard Yuan Ming.

Yuan Ming was a little surprised by his sudden move, but he didn't dodge and instead put his ear close to it.

"This is not the mission of the Execution Hall, but the mission of the Beast Slave Hall." Ulu said in a lowered voice.

The mission of the Beast Slave Hall?

Yuan Ming was confused for a while, but then he immediately realized what he was doing.

"You mean the mission to capture the savages?" Yuan Ming asked.

"You know?" Ulu said in surprise.

"Haha, Brother Wulu, have you forgotten, how did we become furry beast slaves?" Yuan Ming said with a smile.

Ulu slapped his forehead and said suddenly: "I almost forgot, weren't we captured together with the savages? Speaking of which, it seems that only the two of us are still alive."

After hearing this, Yuan Ming vaguely felt something was awkward, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"No, there is also that guy with two spiritual roots. If I remember correctly, his name seems to be Yiguo?" Yuan Ming said.

"Yes, there is him... However, his situation is different from ours. I'm afraid he is already an inner disciple now." Ulu said with some regret.

"Why did you take the mission from the Beast Slave Hall?" Yuan Ming asked.

He has not forgotten that Silver Cat asked him to find out the reason why the wild man was captured in Biluo Cave.

"Kun Tu told me to find a way to turn me into a registered disciple." Wulu said.

"He really values ​​you." Yuan Ming said.

"Just raise a useful dog." Ulu said with a self-deprecating smile.

"I was curious when I was arrested, why do you think they arrested these savages?" Yuan Ming asked tentatively.

Wulu took a deep look at Yuan Ming, seemed to hesitate a little, and asked: "Isn't it just to choose the beast slave?"

"But there's no need to kill all the savages who don't have spiritual roots, right?" Yuan Ming asked.

"I don't know about that." Ulu shook his head.

After saying that, he looked at Yuan Ming with a smile and said, "If you really want to find out, you might as well go to the Beast Slave Hall to accept the task. The reward is quite high."

"I just asked casually, I don't have that much time now." Yuan Ming said with a smile.

While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the foot of the mountain. They each said goodbye and left in the direction of the two peaks.

…

In the days that followed, Yuan Ming began to practice hard on the wooden prison technique and the wooden concealment technique.

The first level of Ming Yue Jue has been completed. With the blessing of the powerful soul, it only took him half a month to initially master the two spells.

At night, the cool moonlight shines in through the window.

Yuan Ming circulated the Ming Yue Jue, slowly finished the exercise, and opened his eyes.

Since the first level of Ming Yue Jue was completed and continued to practice, the growth of soul power has slowed down significantly, and it has completely stopped in the past two days.

"It seems that the practice of Ming Yue Jue has reached a bottleneck. Maybe the four spiritual materials that Silver Cat asked me to find are the ones that can break through the bottleneck? We need to get them together as soon as possible." He murmured to himself.

Yuan Ming did not get up, but used his energy to check the mana status.

Since he found out about the properties of Jiu Yuan Jue, he would try his best to find places with lush vegetation every day during his practice. His practice speed has returned to its previous state, his mana has improved very quickly, and he is not far from the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Catching a ferocious beast is not the same as killing a ferocious beast, and one may even face many emergencies. Although Yuan Ming has many methods, his level at the fifth level of Qi refining is a bit low among the registered disciples. It would be best to break through to the sixth level of Qi Refining before going there.

With the extraordinary speed of Jiu Yuan Jue's cultivation, he would be able to reach the sixth level of Qi refining in another month. However, preparations for taming the beasts were all done. Waiting for a month was really a waste of time.

Yuan Ming gritted his teeth in his heart and took out a watery fairy peach, which was the red peach picked from Wuzhong Island.

He has already found out clearly that this peach is called the Red Core Spirit Peach. It is a very rare spiritual fruit that can strengthen the foundation and cultivate energy. Judging from the appearance, it is almost a hundred years old and can be used to refine elixirs. , or it can be swallowed directly like Ganoderma lucidum.

With his current status, he naturally does not have the channels and capital to refine it into elixirs.

Yuan Ming bit down on the peach and swallowed it into his stomach.

The pulp quickly turned into a stream of body fluid and flowed into the abdomen, and an abundant spiritual power flowed around the body.

Yuan Ming closed his eyes and ran the Nine Yuan Jue, absorbing this spiritual power, and the fluctuations in his magic power gradually increased.

The day and night passed quickly.

Yuan Ming's aura suddenly rose, his clothes moved automatically without any wind, and the air nearby also flowed and oscillated. It took him a while to regain his composure.

He opened his eyes and smiled.

The red-core spiritual peach, which was nearly a century old, was indeed very powerful. Even if it was not refined into a pill, the abundant spiritual energy contained in it surprised him, allowing him to break through the sixth level of Qi refining as he wished.

In this way, the confidence to conquer the spirit beasts and the power of self-preservation are a little stronger.

On the second day, Yuan Ming said hello to Fang Ge, then applied for a token of leaving the sect and left Biluo Cave.

If Biluo Cave disciples want to tame spiritual beasts on their own, they will go to the depths of Shiwan Mountain to search. There are many ferocious beasts there and they can find suitable targets.

It's just that the place deep in the Shiwan Mountain is too big. To find a suitable spiritual beast, you can only try your luck. Many people search for months, but they may not be able to find the beast they like. It is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also risky.

For this reason, most disciples buy their spiritual beasts from the Beast Taming Hall, and few choose to find them on their own.

However, Yuan Ming was not worried about this. When he first asked the Third Cave Master for advice on how to control beasts, he had already thought about where to find the target, which was the island in the fog.

There are many strange and ferocious beasts on that island. If you catch any one, it is a good spiritual beast.

The only trouble is the black water monster around the island, but he is different now and has prepared some countermeasures.

Yuan Ming left the sect and soon came to the shore of Qianlu Lake.

Instead of tying another raft, he raised his hand and waved toward the lake. A small boat appeared and landed on the lake.

Yuan Ming asked a disciple from the sect who was good at craftsmanship to build it. The sailing speed in the water was much faster than the previous raft.

He jumped into the boat, rowed the oars, and headed towards the Mist Island.

An hour later, Yuan Ming came to the place where the fog was particularly thick.

Relying on his memory and setting up the incense burner several times to search in the sky, he finally found the island in the fog again.

Yuan Ming was lucky this time and did not encounter the black water monster. However, to be on the safe side, he put away the boat and used the incense burner to fly directly to the island and landed in a purple forest.

"It's not that black pine forest..." He was quite disappointed.

The red-core peach has a remarkable effect. He originally thought that he could land on the island from the black pine forest and pick all the red-core peach, but now it seems that this is not possible.

Let's go look for that fruit tree after the things are done.

Yuan Ming looked at the surrounding environment and looked at the nearby purple tree. The leaves of this tree were palm-shaped, resembling maple leaves, and exuded a faint fragrance.

During this time, he gained a lot of knowledge about Shiwanda Mountain, including its trees and vegetation. He had never seen these purple maples in the classics, nor had he seen the black pine trees before.

Yuan Ming looked at other plants and trees, and they were all unfamiliar.

"This island is quite weird. The vegetation seems to be completely separated from the mountains. Is it because it is surrounded by water?" He murmured to himself.

Yuan Ming did not enter the island immediately, but first found a safe place in the maple forest to completely restore his magic power before heading towards the island.

There seemed to be no ferocious beasts in this purple maple forest, and no danger came until they walked out of the woods.

As he continued to move forward, the fog in front of him became thinner, and an open swamp appeared in front of him. With his eyesight, he could see more than ten feet away.

The swamp is covered with blue-black mud, and as far as the eye can see, there are lush aquatic plants everywhere, and occasionally there are a few trees standing, and the air is filled with the smell of decay.
