The Master of Beasts

Chapter 826 269_2

"No way, how do you know so much?"

"You can enhance my bloodline, so I assume your cultivation involves the great path of Guardian Beasts, right? Don't you know that Spiritual Beasts have bloodline inheritance?"

"Creatures like us are only released to die after leaving offspring!" the Two-headed Dog said disdainfully.

Song Bei suddenly asked, "Are you saying Yellow Springs is a world, inhabited by the Yellow Springs People, and you Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts are what they raise, but the historical legacy of this world doesn't seem like that!"

"I don't know about that. I'm just the most ordinary Yellow Springs Fierce Beast. Though I don't know how you managed it, I should barely reach a medium grade now."

"If you want more information, it's best to ask the Yellow Springs People, no, that won't work. They've been restricted when they come over, and can't even speak. You should look for those high-level fierce beasts. They have much more inherited information than I do and might know a few things."

"But, with your strength, it's a bit unlikely!" the Two-headed Dog critiqued.

"Are you saying I'm not even as good as the fierce beasts they keep?" Jialouluo said, dissatisfied.

"Uh, not you, but all of you put together. Never mind, you have no idea how terrifying Yellow Springs is. Telling you is a waste!"

"So, what's the main reason you're saving me?" the Two-headed Dog redirected the topic.

"Since you have Spiritual Wisdom, it seems sending you to resist these controlled Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts is out of the question, so...."

"Wait a minute!"

The Two-headed Dog said speechlessly, "Who said it's impossible? Do you think we fierce beasts share a common plight with you humans?"

"But I have my conditions!"

"Conditions? The City Lord saved your life!" Bai Li raised an eyebrow, expressing dissatisfaction toward the Two-headed Dog.

"It's not some odd condition; it shouldn't impact you much. What I want is for you to remove our control so we can fight against other Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts!"

"But have you thought about the fact that not all Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts are as easy to talk to as I am!"

"Oh? What do you mean?" Chen Jiuge asked with a half-smile.

"Hehe, you've already guessed it, right? Free my clansmen from control and some of the weaker, regularly bullied fierce beasts; they're your best choice, or rather your only choice!"

"If you don't believe me, you can try. See that Golden Lion over there? It's a fierce beast approaching a medium grade, quite arrogant among the lower fierce beasts!"

Of course, Chen Jiuge didn't believe the Two-headed Dog's words. As for the lion it pointed to, Chen Jiuge didn't choose it but opted for the Golden Leopard beside it instead.

The Golden Leopard required Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, which Chen Jiuge happened to have in abundance. This avoided many troubles, though the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Roots were lush and only needed one leaf each time, it was ultimately wasteful, inevitably causing heartache.

"Roar!"

"Human? Was it you who saved me?" The mountain-like Golden Leopard looked down at Chen Jiuge, while Bai Li and the others tried to restrain their aura, showing cultivation not much different from Chen Jiuge's.

The Golden Leopard's golden pupil contracted a few times, discovering the cultivation of the humans before it seemed inferior to its own, while the Two-headed Dog was deliberately ignored by the Golden Leopard.

A small clan long oppressed by my clan, luckily freed, probably wouldn't dare think of anything against me!

"Since you saved me, allow me to eat you then!"

"Boom"

Jialouluo punched the Golden Leopard's bloodthirsty mouth to shreds, saying helplessly: "A beast is a beast; it has no hint of gratitude!"

"Hey, hey, hey, who are you talking to? I'm not like that!"

The Two-headed Dog barked unhappily, but seeing Jialouluo's pair of menacing eyes, its voice subconsciously lowered, "Can't afford to offend, can't afford to offend."

"Seems the dog's right, we can only choose the weaker fierce beasts!" Song Bei said regretfully.

Chen Jiuge's nurturing could strengthen these fierce beasts. Fierce beasts like the Two-headed Dog, which is lower-ranking, will not fall short of the Golden Leopard after nurturing; due to restored Spiritual Wisdom, it might even be stronger.

If the foundation is at the level of the Golden Leopard, its strength should be even greater, making the feasibility of this plan higher!

No matter what, this opens up another path.

With the help of the traitorous Two-headed Dog, acquiring these Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts waiting for commands has been exceptionally simple for Chen Jiuge and the others.

A sneaky Two-headed Dog quietly infiltrated the fierce beast crowd, looking around, its eyes—no, its four eyes lit up.

A rabbit cowering beside a turtle, nibbling the grass, suddenly felt a chill, turned its head, and saw a dog looking at it lewdly.

"Don't come over!"

After a cry of terror, the rabbit was mercilessly knocked out by the dog, joining the grand beast army Chen Jiuge assembled.

For three days straight, the Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts remained motionless. In the sky, the powerhouses of the Nine Dragon Tribe continued battling fiercely with the Yellow Springs Demon God, with no sign of a conclusion anytime soon.

This, in turn, facilitated Chen Jiuge's 'thievery.'

Indeed, stealing the fierce beasts raised by the Yellow Springs People and then using these beasts to deal with their cannon fodder army, isn't that exactly a 'thief'?

"This should be enough!"

Facing the dense Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts army behind him, Song Bei couldn't help feeling a chill on his scalp.

If before he was worried about the abundance of Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts overwhelming them, now Song Bei felt that the ones who should be worried were the Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts!

Several gathering points of Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts near the camp had been entirely assimilated by Chen Jiuge, or rather all beasts sharing a common goal had been fully subdued by him.

"Boom"

Suddenly, a huge thunderstorm roared in the sky, accompanied by Lu Xue's wild laughter from above.

"Hahaha, after fighting for so many years, don't I know your Demon Gods' weakness against lightning?"

"This is a divine skill I've painstakingly comprehended over a hundred years, crafted specifically to counter beings like you!"

Endless blood-colored lightning ravaged the Yellow Springs Demon God's body, burning copious amounts of Demon God blood into charcoal, black blood raining down and creating large pits on the ground.

The black blood attached with countless arcs of blood-red lightning demolished the nearby rocks and trees.

"Roar!"

With an indiscernible roar, what once were calm Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts got dramatically agitated, their once grayish eyes turning blood-red.

"Ha!"

Suddenly being stared at by these beasts with red eyes gave Chen Jiuge quite a scare!

"Can you handle it?" Chen Jiuge turned and asked the Two-headed Dog.

"Hehehe, under normal circumstances I might be a bit scared, but here, these utterly lost creatures are no match for us!" the Two-headed Dog said slyly.

While these Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts carried restrictions, living in the Yellow Springs World, they didn't lose their Spiritual Wisdom. They had their own preferences and some tenacious fierce beasts even honed their power.

Fierce beasts that lost themselves, while easier to manage, also lost a great deal.

Beast hordes collided, soon blending together, and Chen Jiuge found himself surprised to see the Two-headed Dog was right; these self-lost Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts were no opponents.

If not for their numbness to pain, or disregard for life and death, the Two-headed Dog and its kin might really capture them all unscathed!

"Rip"

Severing the Golden Lion's head, the Two-headed Dog let out a satisfying roar, "Ah, so good! I've wanted to do that forever!"

With the assistance of Yellow Springs Fierce Beasts like the Two-headed Dog, the rioters were all annihilated before even reaching the camp, but this was merely the situation on Chen Jiuge's side. In other places, they lacked such methods and privileges.

The warriors' roars, cultivators' screams, fierce beasts' shrieks, and Lu Xue's skyward laughter.

All these together gradually painted a picture of blood.

This was only the opening wave of fierce beasts, in fact, more and more beasts appeared from the Eye of the Yellow Spring, forcing Chen Jiuge and company to engage personally.

"Boom"

The earth trembled, and the Two-headed Dog cried out, distressed, "This is a medium-graded fierce beast!"

Facing the towering Demon Ape, Chen Jiuge's eyes showed disbelief, "You're saying this is just medium grade, what a joke!"

The aura of this Demon Ape was already infinitely close to Daluo.
