Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming

Chapter 201: Chapter 198 Divine Beast Diting Chapter 201: Chapter 198 Divine Beast Diting Qin Feng silently comprehended the cultivation technique for the Small Divine Power that was now etched in his Divine Sense, his heart truly brimming with joy.

In the Cultivation World, the majority of cultivators prefer those mighty offensive Divine Skills, but Qin Feng had a particular fondness for life-saving Divine Powers of this sort.

As a disciple of the Beast Taming Sect, especially one with such low cultivation like himself, there wasn’t a need to focus too soon on pursuing personal war power; for him, obtaining great war power meant simply subduing a few more powerful spiritual beasts.

Many spiritual beasts possess innately powerful Divine Abilities that allow Beast Taming Sect disciples to exert strong combat capabilities in various environments; therefore, it is somewhat uneconomical for them to waste energy on battle-focused Divine Power Magic.

This is because the cultivation of each Divine Power and spell is not something that can easily be accomplished, requiring a substantial investment of time, effort, and resources.

If one is only chasing after combat capability, there is no need for personal cultivation, as that would mean forgoing the advantage of being in the Beast Taming Sect.

In terms of personal combat ability, Beast Taming Sect disciples are inferior to the sword cultivators of Taiyi Mountain, the body cultivators of the Giant Spirit Sect, and are even considered weaker among all cultivators of the great forces, at least before reaching the Dharma Image Realm.

…

However, once Beast Taming Sect disciples have several spiritual beasts, the majority of cultivators of the same level are no match for them.

Even though Qin Feng possessed the Demon Refining Pot and didn’t need to overexert his own Divine Sense to subdue multiple spiritual beasts, he was still influenced by the cultivation philosophy of the Beast Taming Sect.

At his current low level of cultivation, he preferred life-saving techniques like Shrinking Ground to Inch.

Just like how he bought that viper capable of Earth Escape Divine Power without a second thought to merge with the Ruyi Golden Snake, his current realm was low, and he prioritized being cautious and safe; wanting to pursue war power was something to consider only after reaching the Golden Core Realm.

Now with the Divine Power of Shrinking Ground to Inch, combined with the Ruyi Golden Snake’s Earth Escape, he had two escape methods at his disposal, which left him quite pleased.

However, Shrinking Ground to Inch was not an easy technique to cultivate.

Even with the guidance of seniors’ Divine Thought from the sect, he would still need to invest a great deal of spirit and time and use many Earth Element Spiritual Objects during cultivation; most importantly, he had to find a place rich in Earth Element Evil Qi, using the power of the malevolent qi to successfully cultivate this Divine Power.

There are many kinds of Earth Element Evil Qi, such as Gen Earth Evil Qi, Mountain Evil Qi, Floating Dust Evil Qi, Quicksand Evil Qi, and Rest Soil God Slaughter, among others.

Each type of this malevolent qi could be used for cultivation; however, the effects differed based on the type used—for example, cultivation with Mountain Evil Qi would make one’s movements exceptionally steady, whereas Floating Dust Evil Qi cultivated would give one a sense of weightlessness.

Regardless of the type of Evil Qi used, the potency of the successfully cultivated technique would never be too weak.

The saying “Shrinking Ground to Inch, a thousand li in a single step, travel mountains and leap over peaks as if on flat land” describes the performance of this Divine Power after successful cultivation.

Once reaching Great Success, a thousand li would be as trivial as one’s own courtyard, and roaming the entire Southern Domain in a single day might not be impossible.

For a long time, Qin Feng returned to his senses, suppressing the excitement in his heart.

His emotions were fluctuating wildly, totally unsuitable for cultivation; thus, he simply stopped circulating the cultivation technique to move Spiritual Energy, in case a mishap damaged his meridians.

Instead, he moved to the side, crossed his legs, and began to daydream about his life after entering the Inner Sect.

Unconsciously, the moon set and the stars hid, and the night passed in this manner.

When he opened his eyes, daylight had already begun to brighten.

Qin Feng rose, gathered all his belongings into his Storage Bag, then went to the Deacon Room to return the Jade Talisman that opened the courtyard to the Deacon Disciple.

Amid the complimentary words from several Deacon Disciples, he directly proceeded to Elder Yin Qi’s Cave Mansion at the peak.

In the absence of Liu Xuanling, it was Elder Yin Qi who would accompany him to the Inner Sect.

After all, since he had not yet joined the Inner Sect, it wasn’t proper to go alone.

Upon reaching the top of the peak, Qin Feng made his way directly to the outside of Elder Yin Qi’s Cave Mansion.

He didn’t send a message inside; with Elder Yin Qi’s cultivation level, he could easily sense his arrival.

Moreover, this was already agreed upon yesterday; Elder Yin Qi certainly would not delay his entrance into the Inner Sect.

As expected, Elder Yin Qi didn’t keep him waiting long, emerging from the Cave Mansion after only a moment.

“Let’s go.”

The elder clearly had no intention of inviting Qin Feng into his Cave Mansion for a visit; upon seeing Qin Feng, he simply uttered these two words in his chilling voice and immediately released a Spiritual Snake, preparing to take Qin Feng away,

“Thank you, Elder.”

Qin Feng bowed in gratitude, aware of his preference for few words and chose not to say much; instead, he couldn’t help but glance back at Elder Yin Qi’s Cave Mansion.

The moment Elder Yin Qi opened the large door of the Cave Mansion to come out, Qin Feng had felt a dense, chilling breath escape from within, wondering what the elder had set up inside to exude such a frighteningly cold aura.

“What, you want to go in and have a look?”

Elder Yin Qi’s frosty words reached Qin Feng’s ears, sending a shiver down his spine.

“No, not at all.”

Qin Feng hastily replied, “The disciple was merely curious for a moment, so…”

Elder Yin Qi nodded, seemingly indifferent: “If you don’t want to go in, then let’s get going.

Don’t delay the time for worshipping the Grandmaster.”

“Yes.”

Qin Feng obediently followed behind Elder Yin Qi, leaped onto the Spiritual Snake, and flew towards the Inner Sect.

The Mountain Gate Hall of the Inner Sect was situated atop a massive peak; standing in front of the hall and overlooking the mountains granted one a sense of expansive openness.

This hall was grander and more majestic than any building in the Outer Sect by more than tenfold; the glazed jade tiles on the roof shone brilliantly under the illumination of the rising sun, sparkling with multi-colored light.

One hundred and eight coiling dragon pillars supported the entire hall, each one thirty-six zhang high, standing tall as if they could hold up half the sky.

The walls of the hall were engraved with countless patterns of Demon Beasts.

Upon close examination, Qin Feng noticed many strange Demon Beasts he had never seen before; each one appeared extraordinary, and some even emitted a faint ferocious might.

This made Qin Feng’s heart tremble with fear, not knowing what material was used to construct this great hall.

Surely not thousands of ferocious Demon Beasts were sealed into the walls, right?

Since those never-before-seen Demon Beast figures on the hall walls were also emitting an aura, it indicated that these Demon Beasts truly did exist in the world.

Qin Feng sighed inwardly, realizing that it was indeed difficult to learn the true teachings of the Beast Taming Sect in the Outer Sect.

Otherwise, the Ten Thousand Demons Catalog in the Scripture Pavilion of each Outer Peak wouldn’t be missing so many Demon Beasts.

But then again, it made sense.

With the sheer number of Outer Disciples, it was impossible for the Sect to inspect all several hundred thousand of them.

To avoid the core teachings of the Sect falling into the hands of spies, it was inevitable to withhold some things from being imparted to the Outer Sect.

Soon, the silhouettes of Spiritual Beasts flew over from various Outer Peaks.

The Golden Core Elders of the Outer Peaks brought all the disciples prepared to formally enter the Mountain Gate.

Qin Feng glanced around and nodded slightly to Xue Baoshu and the others in greeting.

He did not speak; this was the true front hall of the Beast Taming Sect’s Mountain Gate, distinct from the Outer Sect’s mere formality.

Whenever a significant event occurred in the Beast Taming Sect, necessitating a council of Elders from each lineage, it would be held here.

Hence, he felt it was necessary to maintain a certain degree of reverence in this place.

However, he also spotted two distinctive disciples among the crowd.

Neither of these two had participated in the Outer Sect’s great competition, nor were they the Elders in charge of the various Outer Peaks.

They were Outer Disciples who had recently advanced to the Golden Core Realm.

The Sect had long established a rule that Outer Disciples who formed their Golden Core could still be taken in for cultivation in the Inner Sect.

Among these two was an individual with graying hair, clearly no longer young.

Even with a Golden Core, it was doubtful how much potential lay in his future or how far he could go.

The crowd did not have to wait long before one after another, Inner Sect Elders with unfathomable and overwhelming auras arrived, gliding through the sky.

After a short while, someone whispered softly, “The Sect Leader has arrived.”

Qin Feng and the others couldn’t help but look up.

They saw an elderly white-haired man with a beard arriving on a crane in the distance.

Wearing a wide robe with fluttering sleeves, the old man also held a horsetail whisk in his hand.

From afar, he looked less like the Sect Leader of the Beast Taming Sect and more like a hermit cultivator living in seclusion on a Spiritual Mountain Blessed Land.

“Greetings, Sect Leader.”

The Inner Sect Elders saluted reverently in unison.

“Disciples pay homage to the Sect Leader.”

Qin Feng and the other disciples bowed deeply.

They did not dare to be as casual as those Inner Sect Elders.

With solemn expressions and gazes steadfastly forward, they conveyed extraordinary respect.

“Hm.”

Sect Leader Gu Wuxi flicked his horsetail whisk, “No need for such formality, rise, all of you.”

With those words, a gentle force lifted all the bowing disciples to their feet.

“Why is the Sect Leader out of seclusion so soon?

Weren’t you in closed cultivation?”

Vice Hall Master Li Hong of the Preaching Hall inquired.

“I am greatly comforted by the new disciples’ initiation today and felt I should personally come to see them,” Gu Wuxi answered.

Glancing at the young disciples, he nodded with satisfaction at their vibrant youth and said to the new disciples, “Being able to stand out from the tens of thousands of disciples in the Outer Sect makes you the cream of the crop among the young generation.

Your futures are boundless.

Although your current cultivation is low and strength weak, requiring the Sect’s protection, as long as you apply yourselves, you will eventually become the pillars of the Beast Taming Sect, expanding our territory and spreading the Sect’s fame across the world…”

Clearly, the Sect Leader was also quite eloquent.

His speech, lasting half an hour, stirred the blood of the young crowd so much that they could already envision themselves as high-ranking Sect officials in the future.

After a while, Gu Wuxi flicked his horsetail whisk and said, “Law Enforcement Elder, take these disciples to the Ancestor Hall to pay respects to our forebears, then register them and include them in the Beast Taming Sect’s formal records.”

“Following the Sect Leader’s decree.”

A Law Enforcement Hall Elder stepped forward and addressed the crowd, “Follow me to the Ancestor Hall to pay respects to the forebears.”

With that, he led everyone towards the Ancestor Hall at the back of the Mountain Gate.

The crowd followed suit.

Outside the Ancestor Hall lay a Spiritual Beast the size of a Barbaric Elephant, with a tiger’s head, a dog’s body, and a Qilin tail, a horn on its forehead, and its body covered in white fur, lazily sprawled on the ground and half-closing its eyes as the people walked by.

This Spiritual Beast’s aura was unremarkable, at least these ordinary disciples couldn’t discern its strength.

“Eh?

What kind of Spiritual Beast is this?”

The disciples wondered to themselves upon seeing the beast.

“Could it be a new variant?”

“Don’t speak nonsense.”

The Law Enforcement Elder rebuked the group and paid his respects to the beast before telling them, “This is Diting, the second-generation grandmaster’s Riding Tool.

Do not disturb, swiftly follow me into the Ancestor Hall, to pay respects to our grandmasters.”
