You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 699: You Must Be Hungry Too

By the time Pan Hong returned to the flying boat, Lu Xuan had already resumed his amiable demeanor.

“The Ferocious Beasts here are like this, they never learn their lesson and must frequently be beaten harshly to be subdued.”

Pan Hong’s figure gradually returned to normal as he spoke to Lu Xuan.

“Lu Mou has learned a lot.”

Lu Xuan said, bowing with his hands clasped.

He had been on the flying boat for nearly two hours, during which he witnessed Pan Hong beating Ferocious Beasts several times.

The next day.

He and Pan Hong came out from the deep dwellings of the Secret Land together.

“Friend Lu, take these magical talismans. They are standard equipment in the Secret Land and can be used for self-defense.”

“Although with your strength, you may not need them, it’s still necessary to have them.”

The burly “Cultivator” handed Lu Xuan a pile of items.

“Since you are new here, you can start by trying to rear and tame those Fourth Grade Ferocious Beasts. Once you are familiar, we can together deal with those Fifth Rank Demon Beasts with Core Formation strength.”

“Alright, I will go ahead then.”

Lu Xuan nodded and, controlling a leaf-shaped flying boat, headed to the area previously designated for him.

Although most of the Ferocious Beasts in the Secret Land are Fourth Grade, their strength inherently being exceptionally formidable among their peers, coupled with the special spiritual nourishment of this Secret Land, made them far more difficult to handle than ordinary Fourth Grade Demon Beasts.

He recalled Pan Hong’s instructions as the flying boat flew low.

The cultivators of the Commerce Association in the Secret Land primarily did only two things: rear the Ferocious Beasts and tame them within controllable limits, retaining their ferocity without causing any trouble.

While thinking, Lu Xuan’s attention was completely unwavering.

Suddenly, his Spiritual Sense detected nearby a huge black tiger-like Ferocious Beast, its body surface adorned with flame-like patterns, its limbs robust and streamlined, exuding a fierce aura all over.

Lu Xuan’s flying boat gently landed, sensing through his Spiritual Sense, the giant tiger stealthily approached his location.

“Come, here’s something tasty for you.”

He tossed a bloody chunk of Demon Beast Meat to the giant tiger.

The giant tiger leaped up, instantly crossing a distance of over thirty feet like a streak of black light and swallowed the tens of pounds of Demon Beast Meat into its belly.

Lu Xuan’s mind focused intensely on it.

[Ink Flame Tiger, Fourth Grade Demon Beast, with astonishing strength, capable of releasing Strange Fire, temperament extremely fierce and stubborn.]

A thought emerged in his mind, Lu Xuan sensed the detailed information of the giant tiger beast, and suddenly, felt a strong greedy devouring urge from its thoughts.

“What, ate such a big piece of Demon Beast Meat and it’s still not enough, want to eat me too?”

A hint of a smile appeared on Lu Xuan’s face.

Before the words ended, the giant tiger beast roared low, and in an instant, it arrived in front of Lu Xuan. Its giant paw covering Lu Xuan tightly, it slapped down viciously.

“Slap!”

The anticipated scene of flesh and blood flying did not occur as the tiger felt an irresistible force coming from above its head, a crisp sound emerged, and a slap directly pinned it to the ground.

A few inches deep dent appeared on its head.

“So you want to eat meat? Then I’ll feed you!”

Lu Xuan directly shoved his palm into the giant tiger beast’s mouth.

Unexpectedly, this beast turned out to be a rough and desperate guy, completely forgetting the big loss it had just suffered, and bit down hard.

Unexpectedly, it didn’t bite into the meat, but its teeth shattered a few.

“Still daring to eat.”

Lu Xuan laughed out of frustration, looking at the faint tooth marks on his arm that were rapidly fading away.

“I wanted to interact with you as an Ordinary Spirit Plant Master, but what I got in return was greed.”

“I’m not pretending anymore, I’m a Beast Tamer, I’m laying my cards on the table.”

Lu Xuan, seizing the moment, smashed down with a punch, splitting open the skull of the giant ferocious beast, causing blood to gush out.

“Still want to eat?”

The thoughts of the ferocious beast were still filled with greed.

Another punch came crashing down.

In this manner, Lu Xuan, by understanding the desires of the ferocious beast, kept punching its head, until the beast no longer showed any signs of its greedy hunger towards him.

“You’re hungry too, wanting to even eat me.”

Lu Xuan looked at the giant tiger lying on the ground, its massive body motionless except for its tail gently swaying, sending a thought of goodwill towards Lu Xuan.

Seeing this, a slight smile finally appeared on Lu Xuan’s lips. He reached out his hand, intending to gently comfort the giant ferocious tiger, only to find that there wasn’t a single patch of intact skin left.

“That’s being good!”

He gave a sheepish smile, withdrew his hand, and stepped back onto his flying boat to search for another ferocious beast.

In this way, whenever he encountered a ferocious beast, he would bring out demon beast meat to tame them while gaining detailed information about them, particularly, their views towards him.

Some ferocious beasts quickly submitted after being beaten up by him, while others were stubborn and only restrained their ferociousness after being severely injured. When Lu Xuan left, they would grow fierce again, roaring and posturing menacingly.

Luckily, Lu Xuan saw through their facades and didn’t pursue them too harshly. He quietly made a note to himself, ensuring they would remember their fear of being dominated by him when he came back to tame them again.

Since there was a great disparity in strength, the process of taming each beast had been encountered with ease.

[Rock Fierce Beast, Fourth Grade Demon Beast, its body composed entirely of strange rocks, virtually no sense of pain, possessing strong recovery abilities, extremely ferocious and retaliatory in nature.]

“Hmm? This beast is quite interesting.”

Lu Xuan looked at a strange ferocious beast oozing dark yellow blood, silently remarking.

After taming the ferocious beast, it became very aggressive, attacking him directly. The countless rocks underground were his best response to it.

“It’s no use, however many rocks fall off it, it hardly hurts him, he doesn’t learn, and will still attack on sight next time.”

Lu Xuan fell into a deep thought.

“A body that doesn’t feel pain, huh? Strong recovery abilities, right? I wonder if it’s the same with its divine soul?”

He scanned the surroundings with his Spiritual Sense, spotting no anomalies, then with a thought, a densely engraved Silver White Cone Stinger appeared, piercing directly through the brain of the Rock Fierce Beast.

It was the Soul Piercing Needle he had acquired long ago, capable of inflicting severe damage on Cultivator demon beasts’ divine souls; in severe cases, it could even scatter the soul, causing death on the spot.

No sooner had the Soul Piercing Needle appeared, the Rock Fierce Beast felt its head being pierced and its divine soul violently split in two, as if being torn apart.

Under severe pain, it let out a mournful howl.

“Yield or not?”

Lu Xuan withdrew the Soul Piercing Needle, sending a thought towards the Rock Fierce Beast.

“I yield, I yield”

As the Rock Fierce Beast watched the Silver White Cone Stinger swirling around Lu Xuan’s palm, a strong fear flashed through its eyes, and it bowed down in submission to Lu Xuan.

“There’s always a way to deal with you all.”

Seeing yet another beast tamed, Lu Xuan felt triumphant. As usual, his focus returned to the Rock Fierce Beast, which was constantly gathering rock on its body.

“Kill him! Kill him!!!”

A tidal wave of hatred emanated from within the Rock Fierce Beast.

“Hmm? So cunning? Still pretending? If I hadn’t sensed your true thoughts, you really would have fooled me.”

Lu Xuan was astonished within but showed no change in expression, confirming once more the endless rage the ferocious beast harbored towards him.

“This beast can’t be left alive.”

As the Rock Fierce Beast looked up pleadingly, the Soul Piercing Needle moved in and out, pulverizing its divine soul.
