On the way, seeing Xu Chunniang's steady body when flying the sword, not looking like a beginner at all, Lin Xi couldn't help but nod secretly.
This Xu Chunniang is indeed extraordinary.
Lin Yuxuan sat on the flying magic weapon and looked at Xu Chunniang with envy.
At the same time, he secretly made up his mind to practice well and build a foundation as soon as possible.
The Beast Taming Peak and the Thousand Machines Peak are not far apart, and it only takes less than half an hour to get there.
"These are the 'beast mountains' of my Beast Control Peak. The spiritual beasts in the foundation-building stage are kept in these three beast mountains. Except for the disciples who feed and take care of the spiritual beasts, no one else is allowed to enter easily."
Lin Xi explained to Xu Chunniang, cast a spell towards the entrance of the barrier, and led the two of them into one of the beast mountains.
As soon as Xu Chunniang entered the Beast Mountain, she felt dozens of powerful auras and the faint roars of tigers and lions.
The disciple guarding the gate stepped forward to greet him, "Hello, Uncle Lin."
Lin Xi nodded slightly, "I'll come over here to take a look, you go and do your own thing."
The disciple understood and retreated tactfully.
"Each of these spiritual beasts in the foundation-building stage is hard-won. I, a disciple of the Beast Taming Peak, have taken good care of them since the Qi training stage and fed them countless medicinal pills so that they could build their foundation. What kind of spiritual beast does Junior Brother Xu want?"
Xu Chunniang thought about it and realized that she didn’t have any requirements for the breed of the spiritual beast.
Although Xiaobai is a treasure-hunting mouse, she didn't know it at first. It was only later that she gradually discovered Xiaobai's extraordinary talent.
Spirit beasts have spirits. They are not a means of fighting, but partners who can share life and death.
Xu Chunniang followed behind Master Lin Xi, walking in the Beast Mountain, where there were all kinds of spiritual beasts, some chasing and playing, some sitting and lying lazily.
The animals include ligers, white jade rhinos, red flame tigers, and gale tigers.
These monsters are very ferocious in the outside world, but in this mountain of beasts, they have been domesticated since childhood and have become gentle and well-behaved.
Even unicorns and leopards, which are rarely seen in the outside world, can be found in this mountain of beasts.
In addition to animals, there are also many birds.
Just the birds Xu Chunniang saw along the way included the three-headed bird, the black-feathered bird, the thunder dove, the black bird, etc.
One of them is a snow-white peacock, a rare mutant spiritual beast.
Seeing Xu Chunniang taking another look at it, Lin Yuxuan introduced the origin of the peacock.
"This peacock was brought back from a secret realm by a senior master fifty years ago. When it was first brought back, it was just an egg. Although it is very beautiful, it has a very arrogant temperament and looks down on everyone."
The white peacock was originally walking by the pool, admiring his own reflection. Upon hearing this, he raised his head and glanced at Lin Yuxuan, then turned his head to the other side with disdain.
Lin Yuxuan was no longer surprised by this.
When she first saw the white peacock, she tried to please it, but after being laughed at several times, she gave up the idea.
Xu Chunniang withdrew her gaze. Although the white peacock was beautiful, it was too arrogant and difficult to serve.
She looked at this one, then at that one, and thought they were both very good, but when she made up her mind to keep them by her side, she always felt like something was missing.
Seeing that the three people had finished touring the Beast Mountain, Xu Chunniang had not yet made a choice.
"It doesn't matter. There are three Beast Mountains in total. Since Junior Brother Xu didn't find one that fits your needs, you might as well take a look at more."
"Then I'll trouble Uncle Lin."
"What's the point of talking about trouble? Since I promised to give you a spiritual beast, I must make you satisfied."
The three of them turned and went to a nearby animal mountain. As soon as they stepped in, Xu Chunniang was attracted by a little tiger with orange patterns.
The little tiger was a small ball, lying on the rocks and sleeping soundly. It looked very cute, just like a lazy big cat.
"Hey, when did this big cat come? I don't think I've seen it before."
Lin Yuxuan walked over with some curiosity, but halfway through, she was blocked by an invisible barrier.
The little tiger noticed the movement, flipped over, and waved its claws at Lin Yuxuan outside the formation, baring its teeth in protest.
However, its body is too small, so this action not only does not look ferocious at all, but also makes it more lovable.
“So cute!”
Lin Yuxuan exclaimed, feeling overjoyed, "I really want to form a bond with it!"
Upon seeing this, Master Lin Xi attacked him mercilessly.
"This little tiger may look cute, but it has already reached the foundation-building stage. One strike from its claws can take half of your life. Moreover, there is a formation set up around it, so it is obviously not completely tamed yet. How can you control it with your meager Qi training?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuxuan felt very discouraged and regretted that her cultivation was not good enough.
Xu Chunniang took two steps forward and looked at the little tiger carefully.
"This tiger beast is very special. It looks ordinary, just like a wild tiger beast. However, it is still in its infancy, but it has reached the foundation-building stage. It is truly extraordinary."
Lin Xi seemed to be thinking about something, and called over the disciple who was taking care of the tiger beast.
"Who sent this tiger beast?"
The disciple stepped forward and bowed, looking at the little tiger with fear in his eyes.
"This beast was sent here by the peak master three months ago. Although it looks harmless, it is actually very ferocious. Several of the disciples who took care of it have been scratched."
Lin Xi pondered for a moment. The art of taming beasts in the Beast Taming Peak has become very mature. It usually only takes one month to tame a ferocious beast.
This tiger has been in the Beast Mountain for three months and has not yet been tamed, which shows its unruly character.
When the little tiger in the formation heard this, disdain flashed in his eyes. He shook his head, turned around, and lay down lazily on the rock again.
Xu Chunniang was amused by its behavior. This little tiger-like cat would definitely work if she took it back to urge Xiaobai to practice.
However, since this tiger beast belongs to the master of Beast Taming Peak, she probably cannot choose to take it away.
Seeing what Xu Chunniang was thinking, Lin Xi smiled slightly.
"This beast is indeed extraordinary. It has already reached the foundation-building stage in its infancy. It is possible that it will be able to break through to the golden elixir stage after it grows up. If you really like it, I will ask the peak master for it for you."
At this point, he paused for a moment, "But it has not been tamed and is still wild. You don't know how to tame beasts, so I'm afraid you won't be able to tame it in a short period of time."
Upon hearing this, Xu Chunniang said nothing more and continued walking up the mountain to check on other spirit beasts.
But even after visiting all three beast mountains, he still hadn't found a spiritual beast that suited his taste.
Instead, the image of the little tiger with bared fangs and claws appeared in her mind from time to time.
Accompanying Xu Chunniang to visit the three beast mountains, there was no sign of impatience on Master Lin Xi's face.
"Master Xu, how have you considered it?"
Xu Chunniang pondered for a moment and expressed her own opinion.
"There are many spiritual beasts in the Beast Mountain. They are gentle, but they lose their nature after being tamed. I see that the little tiger is wild and difficult to tame, but it has its own personality."
Lin Xi nodded slightly, "The spirit beasts in the Beast Mountain are under the unified management of our Beast Taming Sect. If we want to take advantage of them, we must first blunt their edge. They do have the flaw you mentioned."
Xu Chunniang raised her head and looked at the little tiger trapped in the formation.
