Chapter 193 - Beast Master

  "Another new great potential seventh-grade talent!"

  Lu Xuan looked at the white jade monkey who was tasting the roasted fish, and a warm and sincere smile appeared on his face.

  "Is that enough? If not, there is more here."

  He said softly to the white jade sky-supporting monkey.

  The stepping cloud lynx, who was eating fish nearby, heard the voice, raised his head, and looked at Lu Xuan with confused green eyes.

  It seemed to have sensed a familiar feeling just now.

  What greeted it was Lu Xuan's fierce glare.

  The white jade sky-supporting monkey was very intelligent, and its eyes like crystal red jade looked at Lu Xuan. After getting his confirmation, it came to the roasted fish that exuded a rich aroma.

  Lu Xuan cut off a piece with the silver-breaking blade and handed it to the white jade monkey.

  The monkey took it with both hands, lowered his head, and slowly walked behind Xuantian Bailuan to taste the food carefully.

  "So good..."

  Lu Xuan praised.

  "Such a well-behaved and sensible, shy and timid girl, which is totally different from the fierce, aggressive, violent and irritable girl in the information."

  He couldn't help but feel a little confused.

  Not far away, Xuantian Bailuan walked gracefully and came to Lu Xuan.

  Lu Xuan saw a trace of desire in its black and white eyes, cut off a piece of grilled fish and threw it to the phoenix.

  "You are quite loyal, little thing. I told you last time, and this time you really brought a companion."

  Lu Xuan said with a smile.

  After all the grilled fish was eaten, he took out a piece of crab paste from the storage bag as a snack. He

  cut it horizontally and vertically and gave a piece to Erxiao, the phoenix, and the white jade monkey.

  "I don't know how the sect raises the guardian spirit beasts, whether they are free-range or have cultivators take care of them."

  "However, even if there are cultivators who take care of them, they will probably only use specific spirit fruits or raw materials from monsters to raise them.

  Unlike me, there are various cooking methods for monster meat, such as braising, steaming, frying and roasting... There are many ways."

  "In addition, there are spirit fruits of various flavors and special treasures obtained from the light ball."

  "After such a series of tricks, they must be fascinated and infatuated."

  Lu Xuan looked at the two guardian spirit beasts who were enjoying the crab spirit paste bit by bit, and thought proudly.

  "Ordinary fellow disciples usually choose cultivators with deep backgrounds and strong strength as their thighs, and try their best to curry favor with them, but the results are very limited, and they may even get nothing in return."

  "Unlike me, I took a different approach and noticed the potential of the spirit beast early on. When it was the weakest and most innocent, I used various delicacies to capture its stomach and build a deep relationship from an early age."

  "Easy, simple, and effective."

  Lu Xuan thought happily.

  After eating the Crab Spirit Paste, Xuantian Bailuan and Baiyu Qingtian Ape walked up to Lu Xuan and thanked him.

  Then, Xuantian Bailuan turned into a stream of light that changed from real to fake and passed through the misty maze.

  When Lu Xuan saw the white jade monkey grabbing three white hairs on its head and was about to open the formation to let it go, the monkey's eyes like crystal red jade flashed a trace of red light, and then it crashed directly into the thick white fog, leaving a hole that was 70% similar to its body.

  "So simple and crude?"

  Lu Xuan checked the formation plate and found that although it was violently broken, the formation plate was strangely not damaged much, as if the formation had not reacted when the white jade Qingtian Ape rushed out. After a

  while, the hole left by the white jade monkey had been automatically eliminated by the thick white fog, as if it had never happened.

  Lu Xuan cleaned up the yard and returned to the house. When he was about to practice, he caught a glimpse of the Yangxuan sword sheath in the corner, which was inserted by the second-grade red flame sword.

  "It has been inserted for so long, I wonder how well the scabbard has moistened the Red Flame Sword."   

  The idea emerged in his mind, he grabbed the Yangxuan sword sheath, grasped the fiery red hilt of the Red Flame Sword, and slowly pulled it out.

  A clanging sound of sword rang out.

  The rich spiritual energy turned into fiery red magma, which continued to flow out as the sword body was pulled out, and it did not dissipate for a long time in the low air.

  The Yangxuan sword sheath trembled slightly, as if it was a little uncomfortable with the sudden withdrawal of the big iron rod that had been in the body.

  Lu Xuan carefully looked at the second-grade Red Flame Sword in his hand.

  Compared with when it was first put into the scabbard, the red sword body exuded a clear spiritual light after such a long time of tempering, and the fiery red lines on it became more dense and complex, flowing faintly.

  He controlled the Red Flame Sword with his spiritual consciousness, and with a thought, the Red Flame Sword turned into a fiery red stream of light, passed through a huge stone, and the hole was charred black, showing its terrifying burning power.

  "The tempering effect is really good, keep inserting it to nourish it."

  Lu Xuan was satisfied, aimed the tip of the sword at the crack of the Yangxuan sword sheath, and ignored the rejection of the scabbard, and simply and roughly inserted the entire sword body into it.

  "Sure enough, after the first experience, the second time will be much easier."

  He thought to himself as he looked at the simple scabbard that completely wrapped the Red Flame Sword.

  In the following period of time, he spent most of his time cultivating spiritual plants and cultivating spiritual fields.

  Planting many new varieties of spiritual plants on the mountain peaks consumed more of his energy. Fortunately , after being promoted to the foundation-building stage, his spiritual power was sufficient to cope with these numbers of spiritual plants.

  In his spare time, he practiced several new techniques he had acquired. Due to his ordinary qualifications, his progress was slow, but Lu Xuan did not feel much anxiety in his heart. It would

  be best if the practice was successful, but it didn't matter if it failed. Anyway, he could get various rewards from the spiritual plant light group, which was not inferior to the sect's techniques.

  On this day, when he was cultivating spiritual plants, suddenly, a familiar clear voice came from outside the yard.

  "Junior Brother Lu, are you home?"

  "Senior Brother Yang, I'm here."

  Lu Xuan's figure was like a wisp of white smoke, floating quickly to the foot of the mountain, controlling the formation, and the thick fog dissipated, revealing a figure.

  It was the middle-aged scholar who helped solve the Molin Jiao's dietary problem during the Qi training stage. When Lu Xuan had just broken through, he generously gave him a Lihuo Jiaolong egg.

  "Junior Brother Lu, I haven't seen you for a while. Your cultivation has stabilized a lot."

  "Thank you for the compliment, Senior Brother. I have been staying on the mountain and practicing hard for a while. I have achieved a little bit of results."

  Lu Xuan said casually. Although the Lingying grass he picked before gave him less experience due to the huge difference in grades, it still brought him nearly two and a half years of cultivation, which made his early foundation-building stage completely stabilized.

  "How is the Jiaolong egg hatching?"

  The middle-aged scholar followed Lu Xuan and asked with a smile.

  "Everything is going well. It will probably hatch soon."

  "That's good."

  "Junior Brother Lu, I came here this time to ask for something."

  "A good friend of mine in the sect has recently encountered a problem with a spirit beast.

  He has a pair of rare ancient beasts, twins in one body, and now they have reached the breeding stage. However, because the breeding conditions of the beasts cannot be met, he has been unable to find a solution for a long time. He has tried many ways but failed."

  "I think Junior Brother Lu has unique skills in this regard, so I want to invite you to try."

  "Okay, it's another spirit beast breeding problem. I have become a master of beast science."

  Lu Xuan sighed secretly.

  After solving the problem of the reduced fertility rate of the spirit cranes in the Beast Taming Hall, the problem of the inability to breed special beasts has arisen.

  Moreover, judging from the tone and demeanor of the middle-aged Confucian scholar Yang Qingfeng, there must be something unusual behind this problem.
