Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming

Chapter 60: Chapter 60: End of the Battle

Qin Xi watched in amazement, never expecting Qin Feng to possess such means.

But this girl was quite astute at heart. Since Qin Feng was not forthcoming, she reasoned there must be a cause for his silence, and she did not press the matter further.

Moreover, being from the same clan, Qin Feng’s empowerment was to her advantage, so she silently helped Qin Feng fend off the Demon Beasts outside the door.

Qin Feng felt incredibly excited in his heart.

Other cultivators needed to spend a considerable amount of their spirit taming Demon Beasts, whether through secret techniques and slow taming after imprisonment or through forceful subjugation with a Spiritual Beast Ring; however, none was as swift and rapid as his method.

Even those subdued directly with a Spiritual Beast Ring could potentially bite back at their master.

After all, the Spiritual Beast Ring was merely a powerful means of imprisonment, similar to the Headband on Sun Wukong’s head. If the Demon Beasts would rather die than surrender, fighting desperately, they could cause much trouble.

Thus, regardless of which method was used, it would invariably require a lot of time to gradually tame the ferocity of the Demon Beasts before securing their loyalty.

But Qin Feng was different, for he had the Demon Refining Pot.

This Magic Artifact was originally intended for a powerful Demon King from the Demon World to subjugate his followers, formidable and authoritarian to an extreme. Any Demon Clan member caught within it would, unless it could resist the Refining and Dao Prohibition within, have their life and death utterly controlled by the Demon Refining Pot.

The Demon Beasts Qin Feng put into the Demon Refining Pot were merely some low-level Qi Refining Realm Demon Beasts, of course unable to contend with the might of the Demon Refining Pot, and were swiftly subdued, becoming Demon Beasts under his command.

Although these few Demon Beasts were not very powerful, except for a Green Fox at the Late Stage of Qi Refinement, the rest were in the Initial and Middle Stages of Qi Refinement, it was still a significant force for any small cultivator in the Qi Refinement Realm.

If he released these Demon Beasts to block the door, it’s unlikely that the other Demon Beasts outside would be able to break through.

Of course, he didn’t dare to deploy these Demon Beasts against enemies right now.

Temporarily suppressing these Demon Beasts before slowly taming them would still be acceptable, as many Defense Spiritual Talismans or Spiritual Artifacts could suppress low-level Demon Beasts.

But if he could command these Demon Beasts without a Spiritual Beast Ring, that would be hard to explain.

Even though he couldn’t deploy them against enemies now, having acquired these few Demon Beasts for his ranks made Qin Feng feel all the more confident.

He had heard from his father that ordinary Outer Disciples of the Beast Taming Sect, unless they were from wealthy families, rarely had cultivators who tamed multiple Spiritual Beasts.

Taming Spiritual Beasts was not as simple as just subduing them; other cultivators even required daily nourishment for refined Magical Treasures, let alone living creatures like Spiritual Beasts.

The combat strength of a Beast Taming Sect disciple largely depended on their Spiritual Beasts; to become more powerful in battle, in addition to personal cultivation, one also needed to aid their Spiritual Beasts’ advancement.

Though the resources required for daily cultivation and advancement of each Spiritual Beast differ, they are certainly not negligible. Often, to maintain the cultivation pace of Spiritual Beasts, they consume more resources than the Beast Taming Sect disciples do in their own cultivation.

And if a disciple were to tame a Super glutton like the Swallowing Sky Toad, that would be seriously bad luck. Even pouring all their resources into it might not be enough to advance such a Demon Beast.

Hence, ordinary Outer Disciples could not afford to raise multiple Spiritual Beasts, and only those disciples who have powerful family backing or strong cultivation could afford to nurture several Spiritual Beasts. @@novelbin@@

Qin Feng had easily subdued those Demon Beasts, but he was actually facing a resource issue. Currently, the Demon Refining Pot lacked a Spirit Vein and couldn’t generate Spiritual Energy on its own to support the Demon Beasts’ cultivation inside. If he wanted to foster these Demon Beasts, it would also consume considerable resources.

However, he had no intention of nurturing these foxes and Snake Demons, subduing them was purely to make a few extra fighters, with the Swallowing Sky Toad being the one he actually needed to focus on cultivating.

Both in potential and in Divine Skills, the Swallowing Sky Toad was far superior to those Green Foxes and Snake Demons; there was no need for him to cast his efforts on these ordinary Demon Beasts.

Just as he was gleefully planning to cast the Binding Spirit Net again to capture another Demon Beast preparing to rush in, he heard Qin Xi shouting, “Afeng, we’ve run out of Defense Spiritual Talismans; don’t go forward anymore, watch out for injuries from other Demon Beasts.”

Qin Feng, although regretful, was no longer greedy. He conjured two Iron Hooks that glimmered with cold light and hurled them at the Snake Demon at the entrance.

Though these Iron Hooks were Low Grade Magic Artifacts, the scales of the Snake Demon had not yet reached the level where they could withstand Magic Artifacts and remain unharmed, so he swiftly drew several wounds on the snake’s body with his pair of Iron Hooks.

It was a pity that these Iron Hooks were a peculiar type of Magic Artifact, and he wasn’t using them properly; hence, he couldn’t unleash their full power. In the end, it was Qin Xi who cast the Willow Leaf Saber, killing the Snake Demon with one strike.

Just as the Spiritual Talismans on their bodies were about to be exhausted, a roar suddenly came from outside. Then, a Bengal Tiger over two zhang in length leaped down from the void and, with a few swipes of its paws, patted to death over a dozen Demon Beasts that had gathered in the corridor.

Soon after, a pale-faced Fang Zheng appeared at the door.

He had forcibly tried to stop the Green Foxes from leaving previously, and despite the assistance from a Demon Core Realm Spiritual Crane, he was still struck by a Green Fox and sustained a serious injury.

Fang Zheng glanced at the two of them, nodded slightly, and praised, “Not bad, you’ve managed to last this long and have even slain over ten Demon Beasts; very good.”

Although he could tell that the Demon Beasts were slain by Talismans, the fact that two young men and women who had yet to begin their path could achieve this was, of course, commendable.

“Thank you for your praise, Senior Brother Fang.”

Qin Feng quickly cupped his hands together, “May I ask, brother, how’s the battle outside?”

“The two Demon Beasts have been beheaded.”

Fang Zheng said, “As for the several Demons from the Yin Spirit Demon Sect, Martial Uncle Yan and several elders are currently besieging them. If all goes well, there should be a result soon.”

The Green Fox and the Yin Snake, two great Demon Cores of the Great Demon rank, had fled in different directions, only to have their escape paths blocked.

The Yin Snake was already suppressed by the Jiao Dragon and, without the Green Fox’s assistance, didn’t hold out for long before being bitten to death by the Jiao Dragon. The Jiao Dragon then went after the Green Fox, and with the assistance of the Spiritual Crane, it easily slew the Green Fox, not allowing it to escape using Illusion Techniques.

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng and Qin Xi sighed in relief.

It was finally over.

Although in all fairness, the duration of the battle wasn’t very long, their strength was not formidable; having their room’s door broken through by a Foundation Establishment Fox Demon, then being besieged inside by so many Demon Beasts, had indeed taken a psychological toll on them.

Seeing that they were unharmed, Fang Zheng didn’t linger and went elsewhere.

There were still plenty of Demon Beasts on the Tower Ship. It was better to quickly deal with them, to prevent any more disciples from getting injured.
