I Practice Farming While the Rest Cultivates-Chapter 365 - 363 Problematic Mystical Beast 1
Chapter 365: Chapter 363 Problematic Mystical Beast 1
I never expected junior brother Lu to possess such charm, making so many spirit cranes so reluctant to part with him.”
High in the sky, a burly cultivator lightly chuckled and transmitted his voice to Lu Xuan.
“When I first entered the Sect, I interacted quite a lot with these spirit cranes.” Perhaps it’s because I’ve made some contributions to their entire flock, that’s why they respect me so much.”
“Frankly speaking, Brother, for many years, I’ve not needed to spend a single spirit stone when traveling by spirit cranes within the Sect.” freēnovelkiss.com
Lu Xuan chuckled, hiding the fact that he often fed the cranes with spirit fruits.
As expected, a hint of envy flashed in Zhong Hao’s eyes. It was not for the one or two spirit stones saved, but for what it symbolizes.
A moment later, the two arrived in a deep mountain valley.
“This is the place where most of the recent spirit beast cubs within the Sect are trained.”
Zhong Hao put away his Flying Sword and took the lead, guiding Lu Xuan into a restriction filled with intimidating spiritual energy.
“The entire mountain valley is enveloped by this restriction; you need not worry about spirit beasts escaping.”
“Also, different arrangements exist for each spirit beast’s dwelling place, in case of accidents. With junior brother Lu’s skills, you should be able to cope easily.”
The two entered a spacious stone hall. The stone hall had over ten wide passageways, along which various claw marks and imprints were evident; some seemed fresh, but most looked ancient, presumably left by generations of spirit beast cubs.
Soon, Zhong Hao summoned all the spirit beast cubs with his Beast Mastery Artifact.
These cubs are mostly at the fourth grade, lower ones are tended to by outer sect disciples.”
“This is the Four-winged Thunder Tiger. Its flying speed is among the fastest in similarly ranked demon beasts. It also possesses the ability to control thunder and lightning, making it the strongest among these cubs.”
“However, I have observed that this four-winged thunder tiger cub can be prone to aggression, so Junior Brother Lu, be extra careful.”
A silver tiger beast with two pairs of flesh wings, enveloped by thunder and lightning, was the first to charge out. It looked down from above, its gaze arrogant as it stared at the two men.
“This demon beast is known as the Lion Bird Beast. Reported to be a hybrid of a fourth-grade lion demon and a fourth-grade bird demon, it’s very fast, incredibly strong, and also at the fourth grade.”
“From what previous caretakers have shared, it seems to have low spiritual intelligence.”
Following the Four-winged Thunder Tiger, a demon beast with the head of a lion and the body of an eagle came out. It looked around with a foolish expression.
“This demon beast is known as the Black Horned Spirit Rhinoceros. Its defensive ability is extremely potent; even common fourth-level magical tools might find it challenging to penetrate its hide.”

A black rhinoceros demon beast with a relatively clumsy appearance walked out slowly with heavy steps.
“This is the Seven-Colored Pheasant Demon. It possesses an impressive illusion technique, its eggs are rich in pure spiritual energy, even beneficial to foundation establishment cultivators. Its attack strength isn’t strong; you just need to pay more attention to its illusion techniques, to prevent unknowingly falling into them.”
A pheasant, standing three feet tall, appeared silently in the stone hall. Its plumage was splendidly colorful; its slim, gentle waving seemed as though it could ensnare the soul.
“This is…”
One after another, more than ten spirit beasts appeared, each yielding a formidable ability at the fourth grade.
Zhong Hao detailed the ins and outs of the different types of demon beasts to
Lu Xuan, as well as the precautions for the taming stage.
“Junior Brother Lu, I entrust this fourth-grade Illusory Spirit Flute to you for safekeeping. During the day, you may play this magical tool to guide these cubs to perform some simple actions.”
“Remember not to over-ask, otherwise it could lead to potential rebellions from these cubs.”
“Additionally, I will later provide you with a detailed explanation as to the opening method for the restrictions and formations in the mountain valley and stone hall.”
During the taming process, you can decide your own timing, whether to cultivate in the stone hall or return to your own dwelling. As long as you complete the daily taming tasks, there are no other restrictions.”
“These cubs usually eat Beast Spirit Pills, Spirit Fruit, Demon Beast Meat, and so on, which are all in this storage bag. I’ve also written some notes about their dietary requirements.”
Zhong Hao handed Lu Xuan a pitch-black cloth bag.
“Thank you, Brother Zhong, for giving such detailed instructions, saving me a lot of effort.”
Lu Xuan gratefully said, receiving the cloth bag.
“Okay, I’m leaving it up to you now, Junior Brother Lu, you can contact me at any time with a Charm.”
“If you handle them well, and can tame these Spirit Beasts to obey you, the
Taming Beast Hall will certainly give you sufficient rewards.”
Zhong Hao gave a few more instructions, and then rode away quickly on his Sword Light.
Lu Xuan held the Illusory Spirit Flute, gently tapping it against his palm, looking at the numerous cubs below, deep in thought.
“The resources of the Sect are truly profound. A fourth-grade cub, once fully grown, would be equivalent to a Foundation Establishment Mid to Late term cultivator.”
“Unfortunately, they don’t have a Fifth Rank Guardian Beast. Otherwise, I could have found a powerful ally like the Mystical Sky White Luan or the White Jade Sky Monkey.”
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan felt a bit regretful.
Following the usual rules, he took out some rank two Spirit Beast Pills from the bag and threw them to the dozen or so cubs in the Stone Hall.
“To know the enemy and know myself, so that I can win a hundred battles.
After eating my stuff, all of you show your forms!”
He thought to himself, his mind focusing on the different cubs.
[The Four-winged Thunder Tiger, a fourth-grade Demon Beast, renowned for its speed, top-tier among its peers, has the ability to control the Power of Thunder and Lightning freely, possesses a very violent and unruly nature, and likes to tease cultivators.]
[As long as I act wildly enough and resist taming, they won’t take me to guard the Secret Land.]
[Lion Bird Beast, a fourth-grade Demon Beast, known for its tremendous strength, fast speed, and robust Flesh Body. Due to its hybrid bloodline, it has poor Spiritual Intelligence and slow reaction.]
[Wuu wuu wuu… They all say I’m a mixed breed… I’m a waste… I badly want to improve…]
[Seven-Colored Pheasant Demon, a fourth-grade Demon Bird, capable of releasing powerful Illusion Techniques with its colorful feathers. It feeds on high-rank Spirit Rice. When it’s in heat, it can lay Colorful Pheasant Eggs, which are rich in pure Spiritual Energy. Eating them over a long period can enhance resistance to Illusion Techniques, and they’re highly nutritious.] [As long as I’m slovenly enough, no one can make me lay eggs!]
[You won’t get a single one of my eggs!]
“There are quite some Problematic Mystical Beasts, with higher ranks and intelligence, they’re not so easy to control.”
Lu Xuan somewhat missed the time when he was raising first and second-rank Jiaolong python cubs in Thousand Dragon Lake.
While the cubs were having their fill of various Demon Beast Meats, Spirit Fruits, and Spirit Rice, he had gotten a general understanding of their habits, abilities, and psychological states through the ‘care-taking’ process.
He thought there were no problems until he checked, and discovered that several cubs had various issues.
“It’s not a problem to encounter issues, the problem is not knowing what the issue is.”
“Since I have identified the issues, I can now prescribe targeted solutions to resolve these problems one by one.”
Looking at the dozen or so cubs in the Stone Hall, he was full of confidence..
