I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 229: Two-Headed Bear

Upon seeing this, Lin Qing was startled.

He wasn't mistaken. The Queen Bee was indeed in danger, and it was caused by a two-headed bear-like monster that stood at a towering two zhang tall and was covered in black fur.

At this moment, the bear-like monster was facing the rock wall, seemingly in a state of excitement. Its entire body was pressed against the wall, and its tongues were constantly licking through the cracks, saliva flowing profusely. It was clear that it wanted to reach the honey inside.

This two-headed bear, known as the Two-Headed Bear, had a strength equivalent to the late stage of Foundation Building, which surprised Lin Qing.

Sniffing the air, Lin Qing seemed to understand why the Two-Headed Bear had come. It was likely because in recent years, the Queen Bee's strength had broken through the Foundation Building stage, and the spiritual bees in the beehive had also grown in strength. The honey produced was different from before and had an extremely rich fragrance. Even though it was inside the rock wall, the scent of the honey was still enticing. Lin Qing couldn't help but want to taste it, let alone the honey-loving bear-like monster.

Faced with this tempting honey, the Two-Headed Bear tried every means to reach it. Its tongue couldn't reach, so it extended its paws to dig. The strength it exerted was astonishing. The solid rock wall crumbled like thin paper under its paws, and debris fell down.

The Queen Bee also sent out a group of peak bees to block it, including some in the late stage of Qi Refining. However, the Two-Headed Bear was not afraid at all. Its thick fur kept the group of bees at bay. Even if it was stung, instead of feeling pain and fleeing, it became even more excited. It seemed that it was determined to eat the honey inside the beehive today.

Seeing this scene, Lin Qing understood why the Queen Bee sought his help. It had encountered a natural enemy.

With this in mind, Lin Qing didn't move, but released the Purple Gold Toad.

As soon as the Purple Gold Toad was released, its aura of the Purple Mansion became apparent, which surprised the Two-Headed Bear, who was focused on dealing with the beehive. Both of its heads turned to look at the Purple Gold Toad.

After a glance, the Two-Headed Bear wanted to escape. The honey was good, but its life was more important.

However, it had some strategy. One head continued to stare at the Purple Gold Toad, maintaining its intimidation, while the other head turned towards the distance, assessing the escape route. Seeing this, Lin Qing couldn't help but smile.

"Ribbit!"

Before the Two-Headed Bear could make any further moves, the Purple Gold Toad pounced on it. Its already huge body grew even larger in mid-air, and when it reached the Two-Headed Bear, it was two or three times its original size.

The Two-Headed Bear, which had just been vigorously attacking the beehive, lost all resistance in the face of the Purple Gold Toad's attack and immediately begged for mercy.

Seeing this, Lin Qing quickly told the Purple Gold Toad not to kill it.

If the Two-Headed Bear dared to resist, it would naturally become food in the Purple Gold Toad's mouth. But by begging for mercy at the first opportunity, Lin Qing had other thoughts.

Since taming the Purple Gold Toad and the Queen Bee, Lin Qing had increasingly realized the benefits of this spiritual beast.

After taming it, this spiritual beast was a great help, whether in battles with others or as a family heritage. Looking at the defenseless Two-Headed Bear, Lin Qing naturally had the idea of taming it.

This bear had the strength of the late stage of Foundation Building, although it couldn't compare to the Purple Gold Toad. However, being able to cultivate to this level was not easy. It would likely be a significant helper in the future, especially during the current wave of beasts.

With this in mind, Lin Qing had the Purple Gold Toad press down on the Two-Headed Bear and approached it.

Seeing Lin Qing approaching, the Two-Headed Bear's two heads kept turning, its four eyes spinning non-stop. It seemed to be even smarter than the Purple Gold Toad, and there was even a hint of begging in its eyes.

Lin Qing smiled and attempted to form a contract with it directly.

However, Lin Qing's plea for mercy was genuine, but the two-headed bear immediately refused to form a contract. It resisted fiercely, even though the Purple Golden Toad was constantly suppressing it. It was extremely unwilling.

Lin Qing also knew that her thinking was too simplistic. Although the bear was now begging for mercy and unable to resist, it did not mean that it would agree to become her spirit beast. As a late Foundation Building stage cultivator, it was extremely unwilling to do so.

But in the face of the upcoming beast tide, Lin Qing's determination to subdue this bear was unwavering. At this time, having more strength would never be a bad thing.

So for the next half day, under the suppression of the Purple Golden Toad, Lin Qing continuously tried to subdue the bear. However, no matter how much pressure the Purple Golden Toad exerted, the bear was unwilling, leaving Lin Qing helpless.

Killing it would be simple. Lin Qing estimated that the Purple Golden Toad could devour one of its heads in one bite. But now she wanted to subdue it, which was extremely difficult.

Especially for a late Foundation Building stage demonic beast, it was almost impossible to subdue it.

Lin Qing shook her head helplessly, thinking that maybe she should just kill it.

Suddenly, she thought of something and looked towards the beehive in the rock wall.

Coercion was ineffective, but perhaps she could try to entice it.

So next, Lin Qing had the queen bee send out a group of worker bees to bring out some honey from inside the beehive. It wasn't much, just the size of a palm.

But as soon as the bear saw this crystal-clear and fragrant honey, it became extremely excited, almost breaking free from the Purple Golden Toad's suppression. Even though it was firmly restrained by the Purple Golden Toad again, its four eyes still glowed red as it looked at the honey in Lin Qing's hand.

"So eager? Or is there another reason?"

Lin Qing couldn't help but think as she smelled the fragrant honey.

She also wanted to eat this honey, but she simply thought it smelled good. However, the bear's expression was no longer just about wanting to eat. It was like a hungry man encountering a big white steamed bun, unable to resist anymore.

Perhaps this was related to its cultivation. It might help it break through. Lin Qing thought of this possibility.

To prove her speculation, Lin Qing approached the bear, which couldn't move under the pressure, and wiped the honey on the noses of its two heads. For a moment, the bear's aura became even stronger. It was enticed by the honey that it could only smell but not eat, almost breaking free from the Purple Golden Toad's suppression.

But the Purple Golden Toad wouldn't give it another chance. After struggling for a while, the bear showed no signs of breaking free.

The bear also gave up trying to break free. However, faced with the honey that Lin Qing had wiped on its nose, it came up with an idea that others couldn't do.

The two heads faced each other, and then one head ate the honey from the other head, completely devouring the honey that Lin Qing had wiped.

After finishing, it looked at the other piece of honey in Lin Qing's hand with a look of longing.

But Lin Qing didn't give it any more honey. At this moment, holding the honey in her hand, she said to the bear, "Today, either become my spirit beast and enjoy many benefits in the future, including honey, or be eaten by my Purple Golden Toad."

After speaking, the Purple Golden Toad also opened its mouth in cooperation.

The bear clearly understood Lin Qing's meaning. Its eyes showed hesitation, and Lin Qing had a thought. She immediately threw a piece of honey into its mouth.

It ate it with great satisfaction. When this bear ate honey, it was like eating a divine fruit.
