Divine Transcendence

Chapter 92: Opportunity

"Disciple remembers the teachings of the three sect masters and will never overfeed." Yuan Ming shook his head firmly.

Saying that, he took off the storage bag hanging from his waist and handed it to the three sect masters.

The latter lowered her eyebrows and glanced at it, but did not take the storage bag. Instead, she said, "Follow me."

After speaking, she turned and walked towards the fire workshop.

Yuan Ming hesitated for a moment, then had to clasp his fists at Fang Ge and quickly followed.

When they were far away, the other disciples looked at each other and couldn’t help but whisper.

"If it’s so empty, today’s tasks will be doubled, how about that?" Fang Ge’s face darkened as he shouted.

Upon hearing this, everyone dispersed.

...

Yuan Ming carried Huo Chan’er on his shoulder and followed the three sect masters out of the fire workshop, heading towards the back mountain.

"Huo Chan’er likes to be by your side. Is there any special reason?" the three sect masters asked.

"Maybe we have a good connection, and I also like Huo Chan’er." Yuan Ming glanced at the little glutton on his shoulder and said.

He actually had a guess. He always felt that it should be related to the mysterious incense burner or the Death Moon method.

Because every time he practiced the Death Moon method while holding the incense burner, that little guy would always be surprisingly quiet and liked to cuddle up to him.

Upon hearing this, the three sect masters glanced at Yuan Ming, then looked at Huo Chan’er on his shoulder, and then withdrew their gaze, showing no change in their emotions.

"Never mind, no matter what the reason is, you have taken good care of it for the past month and a half, and I am satisfied."

"It’s the disciple’s duty." Yuan Ming replied.

"Give me your waist token." The three sect masters stopped in front of a small hill and said.

Yuan Ming immediately took off his waist token and handed it over with both hands.

The three sect masters then turned their wrist, and another exquisite jade token appeared in the palm of their hand, lightly knocking against Yuan Ming’s token.

"The thirty contribution points promised to you have been deposited into your waist token. According to our previous agreement, I can also teach you a technique. Have you thought about what you want to learn?" the three sect masters asked.

"I want to learn beast taming." Yuan Ming, as if prepared in advance, immediately answered.

Upon hearing this answer, the three sect masters couldn’t help but frown.

"Beast taming is the unique skill of our Bi Luo Cave. Apart from the specialized disciples of the Beast Taming Hall, other disciples who want to learn it only need the recommendation of the elders and pay a certain amount of contribution points to be able to go to the Beast Taming Hall to learn. Don’t waste this opportunity." The three sect masters said.

Her implication was that the opportunity to learn beast taming was easy to come by, unlike other techniques.

Yuan Ming also knew that each of the inner sect elders had their own privately kept techniques that were not stored in the library. It was impossible to learn them through self-study, and naturally, the three sect masters of this level of cultivators would have them too.

But at the moment, what Yuan Ming wanted to learn the most was beast taming, which he couldn’t learn in the Beast Taming Hall.

With only the books in the library, he could only learn some knowledge about feeding and identifying, but the most crucial and core content of beast taming was also impossible to learn.

And the reason why Yuan Ming wanted to learn beast taming was actually to prepare for his return to the Central Plains in the future.

On the long journey back, he couldn’t possibly run back with his own two legs, so mastering beast taming was one of the necessary skills.

"Three sect masters, I understand your meaning, but I still want to learn beast taming from you." Yuan Ming didn’t explain, he just expressed his needs clearly and straightforwardly.

"Since that’s the case, I will teach you beast taming." The three sect masters, who were originally cold, didn’t ask any more questions.

After speaking, she turned her wrist, and a white bone scroll appeared in the palm of her hand.

"The core of beast taming lies in taming beasts, using one’s own will to sharpen the will of the spirit beast, overpowering its wildness with one’s own thoughts, and then using special methods to imprint beast taming runes on the spirit beast’s sea of consciousness." The three sect masters said.

Yuan Ming had already learned these basic knowledge from the library.

A spirit beast that had been imprinted with a beast taming rune was like being subjected to a layer of submission illusion. In addition to the person who imprinted the rune, the person who possessed the beast taming stone could also control the spirit beast through the connection between the stone and the beast taming rune.

In Bi Luo Cave, most of the disciples’ spirit beasts were temporarily rented from the Beast Taming Hall by paying contribution points when they went out on missions, except for the spirit beasts that most of the disciples of the Beast Taming Hall personally tamed.

And Qing Fu Hall was responsible for the sale and rental of spirit beasts, which was also an important source of income for Bi Luo Cave.

"In the bone scroll I gave you, it details how to suppress the souls of fierce beasts, how to condense beast taming runes, and how to refine beast taming stones. Take it back and study it carefully. If you have any questions, you can come to the back mountain to find me. I will guide you three times. If you still can’t grasp it after three times, it means your aptitude is not enough and you can give up." The three sect masters said.

"Thank you, three sect masters."

Yuan Ming thanked with his mouth, but he was quite confident in himself. After all, his spiritual power was stronger than that of ordinary disciples, giving him an innate advantage in suppressing beast souls.

After explaining this matter, the three sect masters asked, "Did you finish refining the embryo at the fire workshop just now?"

"The first success." Yuan Ming replied.

"How many strikes?" The three sect masters had already seen the finished iron embryo, so they already had the answer in their hearts, but they still asked.

"One thousand strikes." Yuan Ming answered.

The three sect masters’ eyes flickered slightly, but their expression did not change much.

"I didn’t notice before, but you also have talent in refining tools." She pondered for a moment and said.

Yuan Ming smiled and did not respond.

"Now that you have been able to refine a thousand strikes, if you want to further study refining tools, go find A Mu He." The three sect masters said.

"A Mu He?" Yuan Ming was surprised.

"He is Chen Wan and Fang Ge’s senior brother, and he is usually in the workshop behind the fire workshop." The three sect masters said.So it was the rumored eccentric senior brother.

"Alright." Yuan Ming thought to himself and quickly agreed.

"Fire Glutton." The Third Cave Master called out.

The little fire marten, who had just finished eating a fire crystal, raised its head, its black bean-like eyes staring at her, then turned to look at Yuan Ming.

"What are you looking at me for? Go back." Yuan Ming said, speechless.

Upon hearing this, Fire Glutton seemed somewhat reluctant. It slowly climbed down from Yuan Ming’s arm and darted towards the Third Cave Master.

The Third Cave Master held it in her arms, its fiery red and shiny furry head squeezed out from between her ample bosom, slightly deformed, but still looking at Yuan Ming reluctantly.

This scene made Yuan Ming feel a bit embarrassed, fearing that the Third Cave Master would misunderstand and suspect that he had given this little guy some kind of love potion.

Fortunately, the Third Cave Master didn’t mind. She just said, "You can go now," and then turned and left.

At this moment, Yuan Ming remembered something. He quickly took off the spirit beast bag and storage bag from his waist, took out his own items inside, and wanted to return them to the Third Cave Master.

The Third Cave Master glanced at him and said, "You keep them for now. When I retreat to refine tools next time, I will still need you to take care of Fire Glutton."

"Alright." Yuan Ming was naturally happy and quickly agreed.

After the Third Cave Master left with Fire Glutton, Yuan Ming didn’t go back to the Fire Workshop or his residence. Instead, he went to the lush area halfway up the mountain and continued to practice the Nine Elements Method.

Recently, he didn’t know if it was because he had started practicing the Death Moon Method, but he felt that the speed of practicing the Nine Elements Method had accelerated. The time to break through to the next level seemed not far away.

Tonight, the stars were obscured by dark clouds, and the moon was nowhere to be seen.

Yuan Ming didn’t practice the Death Moon Method as usual, but sat cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed, holding a white bone piece against his forehead.

The bone piece contained the beast taming technique of the Bi Luo Cave.

In less than half an hour, Yuan Ming had memorized all the contents of the bone piece and slowly removed it.

Through his previous understanding in the Gui Cang Pavilion, Yuan Ming was already quite familiar with the principle of beast taming. But after reading the contents of the bone piece, he finally had a relatively clear and comprehensive understanding.

As for taming beasts, spirit beasts are generally wild and difficult to tame. Even those raised by the sect from a young age are unwilling to submit at heart. It is not easy to suppress them with human souls.

This process is very similar to the worldly young masters taming hawks. It requires human willpower to grind away the spirit beast’s sharpness, fierceness, and courage to resist. Only by truly suppressing them at the soul level can the subsequent branding of beast taming runes be successfully achieved.

This is not only a test for the spirit beast, but also a test for the beast tamer.

As for the strength of the soul, it naturally has an advantage, but it is not the decisive factor for success. The solidity of the subsequent beast taming rune branding and the sensitivity of the beast taming rune stone control are also important tests for the beast tamer.

Therefore, Yuan Ming still has a lot to learn.

However, before that, he needs to go to the Tool Pavilion and learn how to draw runes from Senior Brother Ah Mu.

The reason is simple. Learning the various runes needed for refining tools will help him when he needs to brand spirit beast taming runes. It’s a good thing to learn now.

In the process of refining magical tools, Yuan Ming’s current stage of refining the embryo has only been partially completed. He still needs to continue learning and refine the embryo iron hammer into the required tool shape during the process of refining the embryo.

This is not too difficult. After all, in the previous process of refining the embryo, the refiner’s use of the casting hammer has reached an extremely pure level. Forging various weapon shapes such as swords, spears, axes, and forks is just an extension of the handwork.

However, the subsequent rune carving and spirit opening are different difficulties from refining the embryo.

As for the difficulty of rune carving that Yuan Ming is about to face, one is the understanding of runes, and the other is the engraving of runes.

As for how difficult it is, the notes of Elder Hei Mu didn’t elaborate. Only when Yuan Ming actually tries it will he have a deep understanding.

After thinking for a moment, Yuan Ming gradually put away his chaotic thoughts, took out the incense burner and held it in his arms, and began to meditate and practice the Death Moon Method.

Tonight there is no moon, although the practice speed will be slower, but practice values persistence, and not a day can be wasted.
