Cultivation Pet Shop

"Ha?" Xu Lin said in a shocked voice.

He couldn't understand what Lin Fan had just said.

After all, he was still only in the Gold Realm, there was no way that he could form a contract with this Soul Realm King Beast. He had only been able to barely form the contract with the Platinum Realm pet that he currently had.

If it wasn't for his family using a special method to help him control it, he definitely wouldn't have been able to tame it by himself.

Xu Lin then got over his shock and said, "Senior Lin, you must be joking. No matter how you look at it, it's impossible for me to tame this Soul Realm beast!"

But Lin Fan didn't act like it was a joke at all.

With a wave of his hand, there was a blood red needle that appeared in his hand.

Once this needle appeared, Lin Fan said with a confident smile, "With this, it's possible."

Xu Lin looked at the needle for a bit before saying, "But that's just a normal needle, how can it help me tame this?"

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Why do you think it's a normal needle? Use your spiritual sense."

Xu Lin listened to Lin Fan and released his spiritual sense. The moment his spiritual sense made contact with the needle, it was like there was an intense power that met it. It was almost as if this intense power was about to subdue his spiritual sense.

Xu Lin had no choice but to quickly pull his spiritual sense away since it almost felt like he was about to lose control of it.

Xu Lin looked at the little needle in Lin Fan's hand with a bit of fear as he asked, "Senior Lin, what is this thing?"

Lin Fan had the same confident smile as he said, "It's a special item that I have that can allow you to tame this Cloud Serpent, there's nothing else you need to know."

Xu Lin was naturally still curious, but he also knew where to draw the line. Which expert didn't have their own secrets?

If he pushed too much, it might hurt him instead.

So Xu Lin just calmly accepted this and waited for Lin Fan to do his thing.

Lin Fan went over to the Cloud Serpent that was unconscious on the ground and slapped its face until it woke up.

The moment the Cloud Serpent woke up, it immediately attacked out of instinct, but it was slapped down again by Lin Fan.

The Cloud Serpent had an aggrieved look on its face as it looked around, trying to figure out where it was.

Lin Fan looked over the Cloud Serpent and felt that it wasn't bad. It was nothing more than a normal beast, but it was able to somehow develop a few drops of dragon blood which meant that it had some talent. It would be able to protect his investment.

The needle that Lin Fan took out was a special needle from the system called the Servant Needle.

It would forcefully create a master and servant contract where the beast would be freely under the whims of the master. But the key thing about this contract was that the cultivation of the beast didn't matter, it could force even those that were stronger than the master to become their pets.

Of course, there would be a limit on this heaven defying item. The Servant Needle would only work on those beasts at most in the Soul Realm.

Anything that was beyond the Soul Realm would just be too hard for the Servant Needle to tame.

Lin Fan looked up at the Cloud Serpent who was looking around in a daze and felt strange to be looking up, so he jumped up and put his foot on the Cloud Serpent's head, forcing it to the ground.

The Cloud Serpent felt the force of his foot on its head and it couldn't resist at all as it was forced down onto the ground, no matter how hard it tried to resist.

When it was forced onto the ground, it looked up at Lin Fan with a bit of fear.

The Cloud Serpent still didn't know what was going on and it had been forced to the ground like this, naturally it would be afraid.

Lin Fan could see this and he said with a smile, "Don't worry, I don't want to do anything bad. I just want to make a deal with you."

But this wasn't the handsome smile that he had, rather it was the same smile he normally had in his store…

The Cloud Serpent almost burst out into tears when it saw this as it asked in a stuttering voice, "What, what kind of, of deal are you offering?"

Lin Fan said with the same smile as he pointed at Xu Lin, "You just have to follow and protect my friend here for a bit, it'll be helpful to your cultivation."

The Cloud Serpent looked at Xu Lin and could instantly see through his cultivation. It said in a doubtful voice, "But he's only in the Gold Realm, how will he make a contract with me?"

Lin Fan raised the needle in his hand and said, "As long as you let me poke you with this needle, you'll see what I mean."

The Cloud Serpent felt like something was wrong and couldn't help trying to wriggle back, but Lin Fan's foot was still on its head, so it couldn't move at all.

It had no choice but to let Lin Fan poke it with the needle.

If anyone who didn't know what was going saw this scene, they would have felt something different from seeing this scene. It was almost like someone luring a little child with candy…

After the needle poked the Cloud Serpent, there was a red burst of energy that came out of the needle and created a symbol on the Cloud Serpent's head.

When this symbol was made, Lin Fan waved his hand at Xu Lin to come over as he said, "Put a drop of your blood on this."

Xu Lin bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood onto the red circle. As soon as the blood touched the red circle, there was a red energy that came out of it and went right onto the back of the hand the drop of blood came from. It created the same symbol that was on the Cloud Serpent's forehead.

Xu Lin was shocked when he saw this, but then he felt the sensation from the red circle on his hand. Through that red circle, it felt like he could completely control the Cloud Serpent.

As for the Cloud Serpent, it knew that it had been tricked, but there was nothing that it could do since the contract had already been formed.

Lin Fan gave a satisfied nod at this and then he said to Xu Lin, "Give me a part of your soul."

Xu Lin was shocked when he heard this, "Senior Lin, what do you mean by that?"

Lin Fan said, "You'll be working for me, but how long have we known each other?"

Xu Lin immediately understood what Lin Fan said, but was there anything he could do in this situation?

Still, Xu Lin wasn't in the Soul Realm and he wasn't able to easily manipulate his soul, so he said, "Senior Lin, how do you want me to give you a piece of my soul, I can't freely manipulate it."

Lin Fan turned to Momonga who immediately came forward and reached out his hand towards Xu Lin before saying, "Give me your hand and don't resist."

Xu Lin didn't know what was going on, but he followed Momonga's reaction and gave him his hand.

Once his hand was placed in Momonga's hand, there was a burst of dark energy that suddenly appeared, wrapping around Xu Lin's hand. That dark energy suddenly entered Xu Lin's hand and Xu Lin could feel this intrusion into his body.

He could tell just how powerful it was and even if he wanted to resist, he wasn't able to, but he didn't resist.

It felt like something was ripping a piece of him out as the dark energy spread through his body and after some time, the dark energy came out, but there was something that was wrapped up inside of it. This was a mass of blue energy that was completely wrapped up inside of this dark energy, but there was a strange resonance between it and Xu Lin.

Well it wasn't a strange resonance, it was because this was a part of Xu Lin to begin with. This was a part of Xu Lin's soul.

If Xu Lin ever betrayed Lin Fan, he would be able to crush this piece of his soul and seriously injure him or even kill him.

Momonga then sent that blue mass of energy into Lin Fan's hand and he put it away inside a crystal before putting it away in his Storage Ring.

This was the crystal that had contained a piece of the Beast King's soul before Lin Fan had destroyed it, so it would definitely be able to contain Xu Lin's soul since that was what it was made for.

Xu Lin naturally felt a bit off after having a piece of his soul ripped out of him, but he quickly accepted it since he had already made his decision to be loyal to Lin Fan.

Since that was the case, there was no use crying over spilt milk.

All he needed to do was enjoy the benefits since after all, he had made a contract with a Soul Realm beast.
