Beast-controlling fairy clan.

Chapter 24 Monkey
Lanzhou, Hongtaoling.

Hongtaoling is located in the southeast of Jingguo Lanzhou, more than 700 miles away from Jiufengling where the Zhou family is located.

This mountain stretches for more than 200 miles, with complex terrain, poisonous insects and ferocious beasts, and many monsters. It is a treasure hunting and adventure place for many Lanzhou cultivators.

At this time, Zhou Chun, Zhou Zhengyong and Zhou Jiapeng, who had left the Zhou family in Jiufengling, were outside a valley deep in Hongtaoling.

"It's the valley in front. The red-tailed monkeys usually live in that valley, along with many other animals."

Under a big tree with a crown like a canopy, Zhou Zhengyong pointed to a valley in front of him that was surrounded by mountains on three sides and had only an entrance about 20 to 30 feet wide, and whispered about what he had previously explored.

But after hearing his words, Zhou Jiapeng next to him shook his head slightly and said, "Nephew Zhengyong, what you said was about the situation a few days ago. As for the specific situation inside now, let's wait until your uncle asks Iron Feather Eagle to investigate it before we can tell you."

After saying this, without waiting for Zhou Zhengyong to reply, he reached out and patted the spirit beast bag, releasing his spirit pet, the Iron-feathered Eagle.

As a first-class superior monster, the Iron-Winged Eagle is several times larger than the golden eagle that Zhou Chun had seen in his previous life. Its wingspan is 13 feet long, and each of its feathers looks like it's made of fine iron, emitting a metallic luster.

After it came out of the spirit beast bag, it first glanced at Zhou Chun and Zhou Zhengyong with sharp eyes, then opened its mouth and growled at Zhou Jiapeng.

After Zhou Jiapeng communicated with it consciously and gave it an order, it immediately flapped its wings, creating a gust of wind to use the force to run forward several feet, and then leaped into the sky.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Zhengyong couldn't help but say with envy: "Uncle Peng's iron-feathered eagle is so majestic. If it can produce offspring in the future, you must consider my nephew. I will buy one to raise even if I have to sell everything I have!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Jiapeng sighed with a depressed look on his face: "Hey, it would be better if you didn't mention this matter. As soon as you mention this matter, I feel uncomfortable in my heart."

"More than two years ago, I had already heard the news that a female iron-feathered eagle had appeared in a certain place in Feng Country. I originally wanted to take Tie Peng to find the female iron-feathered eagle for breeding, but that incident happened before we even set out!"

"Now, if we want to find a female iron-feathered eagle suitable for breeding, I don't know how long we have to wait!"

Uh……

Zhou Zhengyong didn't know what to say now.

In fact, breeding spiritual pets is indeed a problem that has long plagued beast-taming families like the Zhou family.

Except for a few types of spiritual pets, most of the spiritual pets of the Zhou family cultivators were caught from the wild or bought from other cultivators.

When these pets grow up, it is not easy to breed and leave offspring.

Generally, they would either ask around for monks who have tamed the same kind of spiritual pets, and then go to their homes to breed them for a fee.

They either look for the same kind of monster in the wild, or "seduce" it, or force it to mate.

In this case, the rarer the spiritual pet, the more difficult it is to find a suitable species for breeding.

So many times, when they couldn't find any of their own kind, the Zhou family cultivators could only try their best to look for breeding partners within the same category.

Just like lions and tigers can actually breed, iron-feathered eagles can actually breed with some falcon-like monsters.

However, the survival rate and potential of the offspring produced in this way cannot be guaranteed.

Most of the time, because the power attributes of the two monsters are incompatible, even if they give birth to offspring, it is difficult to raise them.

Or even if it is raised, the two bloodlines in its body will conflict with each other and there is no potential for cultivation.

It is extremely rare for a breeding pair to perfectly inherit the power of both parents and develop a powerful bloodline.

So at this time Zhou Zhengyong didn't know how to comfort his uncle Zhou Jiapeng, and could only hide his embarrassment with silence.

As for Zhou Chun next to him, he had no intention of saying anything more.

He was not familiar with his cousin Zhou Jiapeng, and they came here together because of Zhou Zhengyong. It would be inappropriate for him to rashly get involved in such a topic.

After waiting in silence for about a quarter of an hour, the iron-feathered eagle flew out and circled and landed on the treetop above them, reporting its reconnaissance situation to Zhou Jiapeng.

After receiving the information conveyed by the spirit pet, Zhou Jiapeng quickly said, "Okay, Tiepeng has confirmed that there are indeed only those red-tailed monkey monsters in the valley, and no traces of other monsters and cultivators have been seen within a few miles. We can proceed without worry."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhengyong could not hide his excitement and bowed deeply to him, saying, "I'll leave everything to you, uncle."

After that, the three of them, led by Zhou Jiapeng, walked into the valley together.

After entering the valley, Zhou Chun looked up and saw that the valley was not small, about two or three hundred acres, with fruit trees growing in it, and many kinds of wild fruits. Therefore, in addition to the monkeys, there were also some small animals and birds that also fed on wild fruits.

At this time, as the three human cultivators walked in, the monkeys, birds and beasts in the valley who had discovered the three people immediately made shrill cries to warn them.

Some bold and ferocious monkeys even stood on the treetops, grabbed wild fruits and branches and attacked the three people.

"These monkeys!"

Zhou Jiapeng, who was in the lead, looked gloomy. He immediately made a hand gesture, raised his hands and swung out green needles to hit those monkeys.

All the monkeys that were hit by the green needles fell from the treetops with screams. In an instant, more than a dozen monkeys were hit.

This immediately frightened the remaining monkeys, and they screamed and fled into the depths of the valley.

So this is called "killing the monkey to scare the monkey"?
Zhou Chun looked at this scene and laughed secretly in his heart.

After going several dozen feet deep into the valley, the group soon saw a group of red-tailed monkeys.

At this time, the monkeys had already been alarmed, and the two sides met halfway.

After seeing the three human cultivators at this time, the monkey king in the monkey group suddenly roared and launched an attack.

Fireballs and rockets were shot towards the three people from all directions, with an astonishing momentum.

Seeing this, the three of them either used their magic weapons to resist, or took out magic talismans to activate and form a shield to protect themselves.

At the same time, Zhou Chun and Zhou Zhengyong both patted the spirit beast bags on their waists and released their respective spirit pets.

But in fact, in this situation, Zhou Chun's Geoturtle can't play much of a role. At most, it can serve as a meat shield for him to attract fire.

After all, the main attack method of the rock turtle cannot reach the red-tailed monkey that is just jumping around on the treetops.

And the red-tailed monkey is obviously not stupid enough to rush up to it and engage in hand-to-hand combat with it.

However, although the Rock Turtle was of no use this time, Zhou Chun's magical weapons came in very handy.

With his magical power, the silver dagger and the light golden flying knife attacked left and right, each locking onto a red-tailed monkey and flying away.

These red-tailed monkeys probably lacked experience in fighting against immortal cultivators, and when faced with the attack of the magical weapons, after jumping several times without success and failing to avoid them, they suddenly became ferocious and directly swung their claws to hit them.

As a result, one of the claws was cut off by the sword light burst from the silver dagger, and the sword pierced through the chest and killed him on the spot.

A hand that was pierced by a light golden flying knife also fell from the treetop.

At the same time, Zhou Jiapeng's iron-feathered eagle also descended from the sky and pounced directly in front of the Monkey King. It waved its sharp claws and released black claws to fight fiercely with the Monkey King.

After fighting for about half an hour, nearly half of the dozen red-tailed monkeys died under the attack of the three Zhou family members.

This made the Monkey King, who was still fighting with the Iron-feathered Eagle, extremely shocked and angry.

It suddenly let out a scream, and the remaining red-tailed monkeys immediately gave up the attack and fled in all directions.

Then it breathed out flames from its mouth to force the Iron-Feathered Eagle back, and also jumped and fled quickly to the mountains and forests outside the valley.

When Iron-Feathered Eagle saw this, he wanted to chase after him.

But Zhou Jiapeng stopped it at this time: "Stop chasing them, let them go."

After saying that, he warned Zhou Chun and Zhou Zhengyong who were standing by, "Our Zhou family was established by the art of taming beasts. Our ancestors always said that it is not easy for wild monsters to grow. If there is no conflict of interest, we should not kill them all, so that our descendants will have difficulty finding a suitable spirit pet contract."

"We can't squeeze out much oil from these red-tailed monkeys if we kill them, so we might as well keep them here to reproduce. We may need them again when our nephew Zhengyong's red-tailed monkeys need to mate in the future!"

Upon hearing this, the two of them looked thoughtful, and then retracted their magic weapons.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiapeng nodded in satisfaction, then waved his hand and said, "Let's go and take a look at the treasures guarded by the monkeys in the valley. Don't let those naughty monkeys get there first."

Some book friends said that the plot is a bit bland and lacks the excitement brought by intense conflicts. In fact, what they said is quite right, but this is a common problem in most mortals. Because of the slow foreshadowing and upgrades, the rhythm is indeed difficult to compare with those books that create a sense of crisis and expectation with intense conflicts. But please be patient and read on. Please believe me, I will definitely write a story worth reading for you, and as long as you calm down and read, you will gradually get into it. I believe that you can slowly walk into this world of cultivation like our protagonist and look forward to tomorrow's changes! I really beg you, it's free now anyway, so you won't lose anything if you read it!
