Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming

Chapter 298: Chapter 295: The Effects of Dragon Spirit Fruit and the Opportunity of Ruyi Golden Snake Chapter 298: Chapter 295: The Effects of Dragon Spirit Fruit and the Opportunity of Ruyi Golden Snake Qin Feng furrowed his brow in thought, then extended his hand to summon the Fire Ape, placing it in front of the Fire Lizard.

As a Fire Element Spirit Beast, the Fire Ape inherently possessed strong fire resistance; even if its strength was not equal to that of the Fire Lizard, it wouldn’t be defeated in a short time.

Moreover, the Fire Ape, having originated from the Demon Clan, carried the bloodline inheritance of an ancient Great Demon.

After advancing to Demon Core level, its Spiritual Intelligence had greatly improved.

Furthermore, it had cultivated the Cultivation Methods specifically provided by the Beast Taming Sect for Spiritual Beasts, and in the use of Magic Divine Power and life-and-death battle techniques, it simply wasn’t comparable to a wild magical beast like the Fire Lizard.

Following that, Qin Feng released the Soul Devouring Vine Demon as well, planting it at the entrance of the valley to block any magical beast that tried to enter.

The Soul Devouring Vine Demon at this time should really be renamed the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine.

Because this creature, after repeatedly feeding on blood in the Demon Realm, had resumed the nature of a Bloodthirsty Demon Vine, the vines now displayed dark red streaks.

Qin Feng even wondered if continued blood-feeding would stain its body red.

After rampant blood consumption in the Demon Realm, the Soul Devouring Vine Demon was also accumulating energy for its own advancement.

Now its vines were longer and stronger than before; if it could devour flesh and blood of living creatures a few more times, as it had done in the territories of the Dark Flame Demon God, it would be able to form a Demon Core.

It was a pity that ever since Qin Feng arrived in this world, he had never released it, let alone let it feed on blood.

With his Spiritual Beasts advancing to Demon Core, Qin Feng had gradually begun to exhibit the stature of a True Disciple, already matching the strength of Li Miaozhen during her Foundation Establishment Peak.

Even he himself, after this past half-year of refinement, had also reached the peak of Foundation Establishment.

Though he had to learn the Druid’s heritage every day, he would avoid Doru in the evenings to cultivate, having tempered his Taoist Body to a true state of perfection, not inferior to Li Miaozhen’s time in the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm.

However, he was a bit worried that suddenly advancing to the Golden Core Realm might change his body and demeanor, possibly arousing the suspicion of the Druids, which was why he had continually suppressed his Realm without advancing.

As the Swallowing Sky Toad gathered more elemental power, the disturbances it caused grew larger, and the number of magical beasts converging outside the valley also gradually increased.

Qin Feng’s Divine Sense swept across the area, sensing that more high-level magical beasts were approaching.

He frowned deeply and helplessly glanced at the Swallowing Sky Toad.

This creature’s advancement was far too slow.

Qin Feng even suspected that without the support of the Space Crystal Stone within it, this advancement would take at least a few days and nights to complete.

He took out an Array Plate and buried it underground, then took out five Array Flags and arranged them according to the Five Elements.

This was a Minor Five Elements Magical Beast Array_,_ capable of drawing in the Five Elements Primordial Qi to form a Protective Shield that revolved through the five elements, encompassing an area of a hundred yards.

However, after setting up the Array Plate and Array Flags, he did not activate the Array immediately.

Activating the Array now would cause fluctuations in the surrounding Spiritual Energy, which might even compete with the Swallowing Sky Toad for Spiritual Energy needed to maintain the Array’s operation.

He feared this might affect the Swallowing Sky Toad’s advancement, so he set up this Array just in case.

Looking up at the sky, where a dozen or more magical beasts circled above, Qin Feng felt increasingly overwhelmed; there were simply too many magical beasts in the Demon Beast Forest.

Randomly, they had managed to gather so many, noting more beasts were approaching from afar, attracted by the commotion.

In reality, the range of elemental fluctuations caused by the Swallowing Sky Toad was only within a few miles.

However, many magical beasts had keen senses and, upon detecting these fluctuations, gathered out of either curiosity or greed.

Among them, some might have come simply to look and had no intention of fighting with other magical beasts, but once a large battle erupted, no one could guarantee that they wouldn’t participate.

Most of the flying magical beasts circling above were intermediate-level, which Qin Feng didn’t consider a significant threat.

However, among them, there were two level-seven Two-Legged Flying Dragons and a level-eight Thunder Hawk, which forced him to remain cautious.

His Divine Sense stretched far, sensing more magical beast presences in the surrounding woods; he sighed softly, praying that the Swallowing Sky Toad would advance successfully soon.

Otherwise, this situation could potentially attract even stronger level-nine magical beasts, and possibly even Druids from other tribes coming to investigate.

It was fortunate that it was currently midnight; otherwise, this might have already attracted the attention of Druids journeying through the forest.

Thinking it over, Qin Feng pulled a Jade Box from his Storage Bag.

Inside the Jade Box was a red Spirit Fruit with a skin that subtly resembled scales, somewhat similar to the Snake Scale Fruit.

This was one of the two Dragon Spirit Fruits he had obtained from the Dragon’s Grave.

So far, he had been unclear about its effects and had planned to keep it to consult an Alchemy Master back at the Cave Heaven Fortress, who could help identify it and possibly refine it into a Spiritual Elixir for consumption.

However, now that the number of converging magical beasts was increasing, Qin Feng felt the situation was getting out of control, and thus decided to give the Dragon Spirit Fruit to the Ruyi Golden Snake to consume.

The Ruyi Golden Snake was connected to his aura, and since he had reached the true Foundation Establishment Peak, the Ruyi Golden Snake was no exception, just lacking an opportunity to form a core.

The Spiritual Energy within the Dragon Spirit Fruit was incredibly pure, and it also seemed to contain other unknown powers.

Qin Feng, unsure about the properties of this fruit, hesitated to consume it himself.

But the Ruyi Golden Snake had no fears; it was a Spiritual Beast that rarely refined Spiritual Medicine into Elixirs before consuming.

Unless it was a Demon Cultivator of the demon clan who had a few skilled in Alchemy, most other demons encountered Spiritual Medicine in the wild and would directly consume it, using their robust physiques to absorb and refine it.

And with the Ruyi Golden Snake capable of swallowing metal and crunching iron, its physique was even more robust than most of its fellow higher-level beasts.

Thus, Qin Feng thought to feed the Dragon Spirit Fruit to the Ruyi Golden Snake to let it form a core prematurely.

Once the Ruyi Golden Snake advanced successfully, its strength would greatly increase.

With its versatile abilities and robust physique, dealing with ordinary high-level magical beasts should not be difficult.

Of course, it could only deal with Demon Beasts of levels seven or eight.

If it encountered a level nine Demon Beast, it would definitely be ineffective.

Because level nine Demon Beasts could rival Purple Mansion Cultivators, not only did they possess numerous spells, but they could also cast level twelve Forbidden Curse Magic, a power far beyond what the Ruyi Golden Snake could withstand.

However, ordinary level nine Demon Beasts did not have as many tricks up their sleeves as Purple Mansion Cultivators did, so they definitely could not stop the Ruyi Golden Snake from burrowing away to escape.

Qin Feng had planned it all quite well.

But just as he opened the Jade Box and took out the Dragon Spirit Fruit to feed the Ruyi Golden Snake, he had not expected it to stir up big trouble.

When the fragrance of the Dragon Spirit Fruit leaked out, all the Demon Beasts went into a frenzy.

Those who were still lingering and watching all had their eyes turn blood red and howled as they pounced towards the valley.

“What the hell?”
Qin Feng was startled.

Afterwards, he quickly realized that the trouble was caused by the Dragon Spirit Fruit in his hand.

He was somewhat speechless; he had never imagined that the bright red Dragon Spirit Fruit would be so tempting.

It seemed that the effects of the Dragon Spirit Fruit were even beyond his expectations.

He did not know that the Dragon Spirit Fruit was an extremely rare fruit born from the life energy and origin power of a deceased member of the Giant Dragon Clan.

Most Giant Dragons did not produce Dragon Spirit Fruits at all, only a very few did, and even then, only one was produced.

Containing the enormous power of Giant Dragon origin, it was extremely beneficial for the Dragon Clan.

If a Giant Dragon was severely injured and on the brink of death, consuming a Dragon Spirit Fruit of its own element would heal its injuries, essentially giving it a second life.

Therefore, the Dragon Spirit Fruit was extremely important for the Giant Dragon Clan.

“Roar…”

At the mouth of the valley, the Soul Devouring Vine Demon continually swung its vines, wrapping around the Demon Beasts, attempting to suck them dry of their blood.

But it was only at the peak of Foundation Establishment, how could it possibly stop so many Demon Beasts.

Within a moment, several Demon Beasts had snapped its vines, various spells like Wind Blade, Ice Spur, and flames continuously assaulted the main body of the Soul Devouring Vine Demon, leaving it in a ragged state.

Above, a Thunder Hawk and two Two-Legged Flying Dragons, along with several other flying magical beasts, all crazily dived down, causing Qin Feng’s eyelids to twitch.

He quickly stuffed the Dragon Spirit Fruit into the Ruyi Golden Snake’s mouth and, not caring whether it would affect the Swallowing Sky Toad’s promotion, activated the Small Five Elements Beast Taming Array directly.

A Defensive Shield covering a hundred-yard radius was formed, keeping the Thunder Hawk and a group of flying magical beasts outside.

But the Array, unsupported by Spirit Veins, was only a temporarily formed Array Plate, relying solely on his Spiritual Stones to operate and could not possibly last long.

As expected, as the Thunder Hawk outside screeched audibly, flapping its wings, streaks of Thunder Magic fell, causing fluctuations in the Defensive Shield.

Then the rest of the flying magical beasts approached close by, clawing and pecking, attacking with magic, and flashes of light constantly appeared on the Defensive Shield.

Fortunately, those few Two-Legged Flying Dragons, although being level seven Demon Beasts, were more proficient in Poison Magic, primarily spewing poisonous fog.

While it could corrode the Defensive Shield, the spreading poisonous fog also affected other magical beasts.

Specifically, those several intermediate flying magical beasts and those that had broken through the interception of the Soul Devouring Vine Demon, many of them felt dizzy and disoriented, their attack power invisibly weakened significantly.

Qin Feng checked the consumption on the Array Plate and sighed lightly in relief.

If it were just according to the current attack intensity, the Small Five Elements Beast Taming Array’s defense could last another two or three hours, even if all the Spiritual Beasts around were to charge in, he could hold out for about half an hour.

Seeing that the Soul Devouring Vine Demon at the mouth of the valley kept having its vines and branches torn apart by the magical beasts, if not for its strong regenerative ability, it would probably have perished just in that short moment.

Qin Feng dared not delay.

He was uncertain when the Swallowing Sky Toad would successfully advance, so he could only hasten the Ruyi Golden Snake’s Core Formation.

This was actually not difficult; with the ingestion of the Dragon Spirit Fruit, it seemed as if a miraculous power continuously exuded inside it, integrating into its body.

Qin Feng was astonished to discover that the Dragon Spirit Fruit contained the origin power of the Giant Dragon Clan, greatly enhancing the physique of the Ruyi Golden Snake, and to some extent, subtly altering the body structure of the Ruyi Golden Snake, seemingly transforming it towards certain structures of the Giant Dragon Clan.

Of course, this was not a Dragon Transformation Fruit, it definitely would not turn the Ruyi Golden Snake into a member of the Giant Dragon Clan, but it did cause an extremely subtle change in its body.

Even so, it was incredibly powerful.

Qin Feng felt that at the moment, the Ruyi Golden Snake was like it had merged with the bloodline power of a strong Spiritual Beast.

Even more powerful than merging bloodline power because the Dragon Spirit Fruit not only had the ability to improve physique but also contained enormous and pure Giant Dragon origin power, causing significant changes in the True Yuan inside the Ruyi Golden Snake, as if trying to convert its internal power into Fire Element.

Ɲονǥᴑ.с0

Of course, that was impossible.

If it were a stronger Demon Beast than the Ruyi Golden Snake, it might have been transformed, but the Ruyi Golden Snake was different; it was innately robust, its internal power was equally pure, and more importantly, the cultivation technique it practiced was far beyond what a magical beast could compare to.

Under Qin Feng’s control, it continuously operated its cultivation technique, ceaselessly refining the power of the Dragon Spirit Fruit, unlike ordinary magical beasts who could only passively accept the power of the Dragon Spirit Fruit without knowing how to absorb and refine it.

Even when the Ruyi Golden Snake couldn’t withstand it, it could still connect with Qin Feng’s essence, transferring power into Qin Feng’s body, temporarily alleviating the intensity of the power impact before continuing to refine.

Thus, in just under half an hour, the Ruyi Golden Snake broke through its constraints, its internal power underwent a qualitative change, and successfully formed its core in one fell swoop.
