The Master of Beasts-Chapter 506 - 112: The Limits of Beast Taming

A powerful spiritual beast aura rose from Chen Jiuge’s small courtyard, followed by a bratty and arrogant voice.

Chen Jiuge had already gotten used to this scene. These children were actually not young in age, but their minds were just like their appearances, so they weren’t difficult to deal with.

However, the children were overly generous, to the point that Chen Jiuge felt a little uneasy.

Every time a spiritual beast was raised, it left behind at least dozens of divine crystals. Whenever Chen Jiuge wanted to return them, the children generously gave them to him, which made Chen Jiuge feel quite anxious!

After sending away the last little girl, Chen Jiuge breathed a sigh of relief and closed the door with a bit of embarrassment.

Looking at the dozens of Five Elements Divine Crystals on the stone table, Chen Jiuge lamented, "This money is too easy to earn. It makes me feel uneasy!"

"Hehe, young friend, you’re overthinking it."

"Who?" Chen Jiuge looked around in shock.

A vague figure emerged from the void, and the scene made Chen Jiuge’s heart tremble. This was the True Realm, after all. Even Heavenly Immortals, or Golden Immortals, couldn’t wander through void casually, yet the person before him could. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"Senior."

Seeing Chen Jiuge’s respectful bow, the figure nodded slightly and then said, "I’ve been observing you for some time. Your beast taming ability is quite good, but it’s only on par with an ordinary Beast Taming Master."

"I heard you’re from the Lower Realm. Is this your talent?"

Chen Jiuge was deeply shaken, knowing he had indeed been observed.

When he first joined the Five Elements Sect, Chen Jiuge had inquired of the Artifact Spirit within the Chaos Pearl if anyone could detect its existence. The Chaos Pearl claimed that as a Supreme Treasure, no one in the True Realm could detect its existence.

After receiving this answer, Chen Jiuge began to somewhat unscrupulously display his beast taming ability.

Chen Jiuge explained humbly, "Senior, this is my innate ability. I can guide the mutation of a spiritual beast’s bloodline, but it requires a lot of treasures to facilitate. The higher the quality and the more energy the treasures contain, the stronger the bloodline after the mutation."

"I see, a fascinating ability. Could you demonstrate it for me?" the figure asked softly.

The voice wasn’t loud and was very gentle, but Chen Jiuge could hear an undeniable tone, so he immediately nodded and said, "It would be my honor."

The figure nodded slightly, extended an arm that shattered the space, and retrieved a newborn Little Grass Ape from within.

"Let’s use this one, and see if these divine crystals will suffice?" the figure said, releasing a pile of divine crystals taller than Chen Jiuge.

Chen Jiuge was embarrassed, "Enough, enough."

"Okay, let’s start then. Use your best ability to raise this Little Grass Ape. I want to see your limit."

"Yes."

The newborn Little Grass Ape was still very tender, its skin a delicate red, with very little hair, looking quite cute.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Jiuge began to feed Wood Element Divine Crystals into the Little Grass Ape’s mouth and then submerged it in a large amount of well-known spiritual liquid.

As a large amount of spiritual energy rushed in, the tender body of the Little Grass Ape began to swell. Chen Jiuge used the power of the Chaos Pearl to guide the mutation right at the critical point before an explosion.

Massive amounts of spiritual energy transformed into the driving force for the bloodline, continuously refining it, driving it to devour other bloodlines inside the Little Grass Ape and strengthen itself.

The figure quietly watched, a bit surprised in his heart, "Interesting, it can actually actively stimulate the spiritual beast’s bloodline to devour other bloodlines within."

This Little Grass Ape had a high number of mutations, a full nine times, and it must have been specifically selected by the figure; otherwise, it wouldn’t be such a coincidence.

Once, twice... nine times, the mutation was completed.

An ape cub only two meters tall squatted on the ground. Its cultivation wasn’t high, reaching only the True Immortal Third Layer Heaven after consuming a large amount of resources. However, it was also very young, using the lifespan of spiritual beasts; it was at most a baby having just learned to walk.

"Qingmu Divine Ape, the divine beast your lineage’s ancestor has always sought." the figure suddenly said.

"Hahaha, old ghost, since you know, why don’t you leave it for me!" a bold voice sounded from the center of the small courtyard.

This new person made no effort to conceal his face; rather, he generously revealed it. As soon as he appeared, the spirit plants in the courtyard began to thrive extravagantly, and the rich vitality even caused the spirit plants to show signs of grade enhancement.

Whatever the two discussed, the initial figure disappeared, leaving the large pile of unused divine crystals and the timid Qingmu Divine Ape behind.

"I am Shen Buhai. You may not have heard of me as you just joined, but I am your master’s master. According to the hierarchy, I should be your grandmaster." Shen Buhai said with a smile.

"Greetings, Ancestor." Chen Jiuge bowed.

"No need for such formality. There are things I cannot tell you, but practice well. Your ability is excellent, and the sect will arrange for someone to protect you later."

"As for the spiritual beasts lost when you ascended, I’ll arrange for someone to bring them back to you. Consider these divine crystals your compensation, and I’ll take this Qingmu Divine Ape. If you can cultivate another Qingmu Divine Ape in the future, reserve it for me." Shen Buhai gently patted the monkey’s head.

"Yes, Ancestor."

"I took your Moon Rabbit with me, as its alchemy skills are too poor. I’ll help train it so you don’t accuse this old man of exploiting the younger generation." Shen Buhai laughed heartily twice, then departed through the void with the monkey and Yue Meng.

"Above Golden Immortal is Daluo. For a True Immortal like me to encounter two Daluo in one day, I must have ancestors watching over me!" Chen Jiuge mocked himself.
