Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 216 Beast Taming Technique
Yanqiu is shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see or understand.

"The Beast Taming Ring, this magical artifact is quite peculiar."

Within the secret realm, Jiang Chen revealed his true form and played with the black iron ring in his hand.

After defeating Huang Feng Sanren, he returned to Yanqiu and recuperated for a period of time to alleviate the weakness brought about by the spiritual revival. During this time in Yanqiu, he also gained a relatively clear understanding of the newly acquired top-grade magic weapon, the Beast Taming Ring.

As he had predicted, this magical artifact did indeed involve some profound mysteries of the soul. With this artifact, cultivators could form a unique restriction on the soul of a demon beast, thereby achieving the purpose of communicating with, controlling, and driving the demon beast.

"The Beast Taming Technique is the most mysterious aspect of this magical artifact, but it still has its own flaws."

"Firstly, the number of demonic beasts that can be controlled is limited. At most, it can control one demonic beast at the peak of Qi Refining or three demonic beasts at the peak of Qi Refining. Any more than that and this magic artifact will not be able to handle it. Secondly, this kind of restriction is not as strong as imagined. If the demonic beast has a strong foundation and a strong rebellious spirit, it is very likely to break through the original restriction and cause a backlash. The safest way is to use strength to control weakness."

As he circulated his true energy, Jiang Chen continuously refined the Beast Taming Ring.

The Beast Taming Ring, a top-grade magical artifact, has two main functions. The first is to enslave demonic beasts, and the second is to contain a unique space within it. Although not large, it allows demonic creatures to slumber within, making it convenient to summon them to fight enemies at crucial moments.

At a certain moment, after the initial refinement was completed, a subtle connection was formed between Jiang Chen and the Beast Taming Ring.

"I previously tried to create a spell that could communicate with demons based on my soul abilities, combined with techniques such as eagle taming, but it was still lacking something. This beast-taming ring has given me new inspiration."

"I wonder how Huangfeng Sanren obtained this Beast Taming Ring. If it was an accidental acquisition, that's one thing, but if there's a stable source, perhaps we can try to trace it back. The other party must possess some remarkable soul techniques."

After finishing the ritual, various thoughts flashed through Jiang Chen's mind.

At this moment, he became curious about the origin of the Beast Taming Ring. The magical restrictions within the Beast Taming Ring were truly profound. At least until now, he had not heard of any force in the four southern prefectures possessing similar methods.

If such a method truly exists, given its subtlety, the other party would certainly not remain unknown.

"I will have to ask Huang Feng Sanren to tell me the origin of this Beast Taming Ring. After this battle, I can confirm that after the spiritual revival, my combat power can definitely reach the upper level of Qi Refining Perfection. Ordinary Qi Refining Perfection cultivators will never be my match."

"The only problem is that my current endurance is still too short. The spiritual revival has been a huge burden on me. Fortunately, there are signs of a solution to this problem, but it will still take some time."

"I wonder what would happen if I faced Huang Feng Sanren in my physical form instead of using the power of the dragon."

"In terms of cultivation level, I have just cultivated ninety-seven apertures, which is indeed a bit inferior to Huang Feng Sanren. However, I have cultivated forty-nine golden threads of light, which are extremely powerful in terms of killing power. If I were to face someone like Zhuang Tianxing who has reached the Qi Refining Perfection stage, I would be fully confident of defeating him."

After the clash of ideas and the battle, Jiang Chen had a relatively clear understanding of his own strength.

At this stage, there are few people or things that can pose a danger to him at the Qi Refining level. As long as he doesn't fall into a trap or get surrounded and killed, he can roam freely at the Qi Refining level. He may not be truly invincible, but he definitely has few rivals.

"The Yellow Wind Cult is not in a hurry to be eliminated. After this battle, they should be quieter. I can take this opportunity to cultivate properly and completely perfect my Blood Spirit Imprint."

"I can sense that as the Mist Dragon's reputation spreads, the primordial spirituality within it is slowly growing stronger, which is beneficial to both its cultivation and combat power." With this thought in mind, Jiang Chen put away the Beast Taming Ring and stopped paying attention to it.

After a moment, his mind returned to complete stillness, and he began to fully deduce the Blood Spirit Mark, hoping to use this secret method to solve the problem of insufficient blood energy and prolong the time of spiritual revival.

As the battle of Danshaqiu came to a complete end and related inside information was revealed, the name of Frost Flood Dragon resounded throughout Changfeng, making him the undisputed number one. After a period of time, Frost Flood Dragon's reputation even spread beyond Changfeng County, drawing the attention of many to Changfeng County.

They didn't know much about Frost Flood Dragon, but they did know something about Yellow Wind Hermit. After all, the Yellow Wind Cult had been wreaking havoc in Changfeng County for a long time, so it was hard for them not to notice. They also acknowledged Yellow Wind Hermit's strength.

The fact that Huang Feng Sanren was able to lead that rabble of Huang Feng Sect to fight against two opponents, withstand the combined attack of the Prefectural Governor's Office and the cultivation families, and ultimately win the battle and sweep through the prefecture, shows that Huang Feng Sanren's strength is beyond doubt. At the very least, he is a well-known figure in the four southern prefectures. Perhaps only the Qingmu family can truly suppress him.

It was precisely for this reason that after the imperial court issued the order to quell the rebellion, not many forces were willing to get involved in the mess in Changfeng County, for fear of not gaining any benefits but instead getting into trouble.

Now that Frost Dragon has suddenly appeared and actually defeated Yellow Wind Hermit, how can this not be surprising?
Within Qingyuan County, upon receiving the latest intelligence, Prefect Qi Xiuning's face revealed a hint of gloom.

"The Frost Dragon actually defeated the Yellow Wind Hermit with an absolute advantage? Was it inherently that strong, or did it obtain some treasure from Liao Yonghuai back then?"

Having confirmed the intelligence was correct, Qi Xiuning gazed into the distance, his mind drifting away.

Because of the events in Qinghe County, he paid special attention to Frost Flood Dragon's intelligence. He knew before that Frost Flood Dragon had the strength of Qi Refining Perfection, but he really did not expect that the opponent could easily defeat Huang Feng Sanren.

Although he had never fought Huang Feng Sanren, he had made some predictions about Huang Feng Sanren's strength. To be fair, he was not confident that he could defeat Huang Feng Sanren in a one-on-one fight. His strength was only considered average at the Qi Refining Perfection stage.

"Old Yu, has the Taiping Sect made any moves lately?"

After putting down the letter in his hand, Qi Xiuning turned his gaze to Yu Jinshui, who was standing below.

"Reporting to Your Excellency, the Taiping Sect has not made any major moves recently; it has simply taken over Qingxi County in a step-by-step manner."

"The only thing worth mentioning is that the Taiping Sect recently successfully established a protective formation."

With a low voice, Yu Jinshui recounted the relevant information one by one.

Hearing this, Qi Xiuning remained calm. With influence covering two counties and a sword cultivator who had reached the Qi Refining stage, it was perfectly normal for the Taiping Sect to establish a protective formation.

"The Frost Dragon is ferocious, and it will be difficult for me to take back Liao Yonghuai from him on my own."

With a sigh, Qi Xiuning fell into deep thought.

He hadn't been in a hurry to act, partly to further investigate Frost Flood Dragon's background and partly to prepare corresponding measures. Unfortunately, before he could prepare, news of Yellow Wind Hermit's defeat by Frost Flood Dragon arrived.
