I Tame Beasts by Feeding

"Purple Thunder, Geng Metal, Celestial Slayer Sword!"

The Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox was sent flying back, its weak spot completely exposed at that very moment.

A sharp glint flashed in Zhang Tianwen’s eyes. He looked up and waved his hand. The Divine Might Spirit Tiger began to radiate a golden-white light, while the Thunder-controlling Spirit Tiger spat out purple lightning. The lightning was drawn in, coiling around the Divine Might Spirit Tiger’s body.

"ROAR!"

The Divine Might Spirit Tiger roared. The ’王’ (King) character on its forehead flared with brilliant light as it spat out the Geng Metal Sky Slayer Sword. The Thunder-controlling Spirit Tiger unleashed its power, sending bolts of lightning to wrap around the blade. Bathed in lightning, the Geng Metal Sky Slayer Sword’s power intensified. It shot out in an instant, streaking through the void like a bolt of purple thunder and creating ripples in the air. With a deafening crack of thunder, it flew forward with unstoppable momentum!

"SZZZZ..."

Before the sword even arrived, the lightning coursing over it struck the Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox first. An instant later, the sword followed, plunging viciously into the creature’s neck.

Sparks flew as blood-red scales shattered. The sword sank into flesh and blood as lightning wreaked havoc, leaving a patch of charred black. The Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox roared, the savagery in its eyes intensifying. Its massive body struggled as it prepared to charge the Divine Might Spirit Tiger.

Its body glowed with a blood-red light. With a powerful stomp, all the scales on its body stood on end, transforming into countless crimson blades that filled the sky, their sharp edges glinting menacingly as they prepared to shoot toward the three of them.

"!!!" Yu Changsheng and Zhang Tianwen both frowned. They sensed immense danger from this attack and took a step back in unison.

"Hmph!"

Just as Yu Changsheng’s expression turned grim and he braced for the attack, the sleeping Profound Yin Illusion Turtle in his Inner Realm seemed to sense something and let out a soft snort.

This snort was as tranquil as an old well, inaudible to outsiders, yet it resonated clearly in the mind of the Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox. It was like a clap of Celestial Thunder exploding in its head. Its massive body trembled and suddenly froze stiff.

"Hmm?"

Seeing this, Zhang Tianwen was surprised, but there was no way he would let such an opportunity slip away. He instantly shot forward, rushing toward the Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox. Lightning bloomed in his palm as he thrust it forcefully toward the wound on the creature’s neck!

"Heaven-reaching, Thunder Manipulation!"

Yu Changsheng and Li Minghan exchanged a glance, took a deep breath, and leaped forward as well. Flames engulfed Yu Changsheng’s fists as he unleashed his full physical power, throwing a punch aimed at the very same wound on the Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox’s neck.

"Thousand Mountains Flame Fist!"

Yu Changsheng roared. The attacks from the two men, coordinated with all their beasts, arrived in an instant.

"RUMBLE!"

The lake water exploded. The Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox let out a mournful cry. After holding on for a moment, its body suddenly popped like a balloon and dissolved into white mist. All that remained were two fist-sized, blood-red Fog Beast Origins.

"Did we win?"

Li Minghan blinked, taking in the scene, and finally let out a slow breath.

"Whew..." Zhang Tianwen wiped the nervous sweat from his brow, a faint smile on his face. He glanced back at Yu Changsheng with a meaningful look but didn’t ask any questions.

Yu Changsheng nodded to them both in return. With a gesture, he drew the Fog Beast Origins to him through the air. Swallowing, he separated two portions from the total and offered them to Zhang Tianwen and Li Minghan.

"I don’t need it. Changsheng, you keep it. My Divine Might Spirit Tiger and Thunder-controlling Spirit Tiger are already at the peak of Foundation Establishment. Swallowing more won’t have much of an effect on them. Don’t let it go to waste. You use it."

Zhang Tianwen waved his hand dismissively and laughed, unexpectedly refusing Yu Changsheng’s offer.

"The main thing is that it’s been a while since I’ve had such an exhilarating fight. The three of us work pretty well together."

After a moment’s thought, Zhang Tianwen added with a chuckle.

Yu Changsheng hesitated. Looking at the unconcerned Zhang Tianwen, he took a deep breath and didn’t turn him down. He cupped his fist in his hand in a salute and said gratefully, "Senior Brother Zhang contributed the most in this battle. Thank you, Senior Brother Zhang."

Li Minghan scratched his head as he accepted his share of the Fog Beast Origin. He grinned sheepishly. "I was the most useless one. I barely did anything before you two finished it. You guys are really something else. I still have a long way to go."

Yu Changsheng shook his head and smiled softly. He looked at the two portions of Fog Beast Origin in his hands and fell into thoughtful contemplation.

’With what I had before, this new share should be enough for my beasts to break through again.’

After a moment, Yu Changsheng made a decision. With a wave of his hand, he fed the two portions of Fog Beast Origin to the Golden-Winged Eagle and the Colorful Star Deer respectively.

The Colorful Star Deer and the Golden-Winged Eagle became euphoric, gulping the portions down in one go. They had already consumed a fair amount of Fog Beast Origin before, and their Cultivation, which was already near a bottleneck, began to surge once more.

[Consumed one-third of a Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox Fog Beast Origin. Successfully fed to the Colorful Star Deer. Gained 100,000 Essence Points!]

[Consumed one-third of a Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox Fog Beast Origin. Successfully fed to the Golden-Winged Eagle. Gained 100,000 Essence Points!]

’Looks like a complete Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox is worth 300,000 Essence Points.’

Yu Changsheng’s face lit up with joy, and he inwardly clicked his tongue in amazement. He had gained 200,000 Essence Points from this alone. It was a massive profit.

[Colorful Star Deer has successfully advanced to Tier Two Sixth Layer! Gained 10,000 Essence Points!]

[Golden-Winged Eagle has successfully advanced to Tier Two Sixth Layer! Gained 10,000 Essence Points!]

Before long, as expected, two flashes of white light shone out. The Colorful Star Deer and the Golden-Winged Eagle broke through at the same time, ecstatic. The Red Refining Snake was envious but didn’t complain, merely rubbing its head against Yu Changsheng’s palm.

"It’ll be your turn next time."

Yu Changsheng comforted it with a few words, fed the Red Refining Snake a few Elixirs, and then recalled all three beasts into his Inner Realm. He glanced at the Profound Yin Illusion Turtle, which was still sleeping soundly, and shook his head, offering it a silent word of thanks in his heart.

At the critical moment, it was clearly the Profound Yin Illusion Turtle that had made a move. That was why the Blood-Scaled Three-Tailed Kui Ox had frozen in place as if it had been terrified by a natural predator.
