Beast Taming: My spirit beast bloodline is overloaded

Chapter 355 Departure from Thunder City
Upon hearing the name Leicheng, Lin Chen thought of one person: Xu Pingzhi.

Previously, when they were in Heavenly City, Xu Pingzhi visited Lin Chen as the city lord of Thunder City, and at that time, Xu Pingzhi gave Lin Chen an invitation.

Hearing Ning Ye mention it again, I pondered it deeply, and even felt a little tempted.

Having used the Beast Taming Technique, Lin Chen naturally understood the power of this Beast Taming Divine Technique. If he could learn another one, it would be a huge boost for him.

"They're actually willing to spend that much?" Lin Chen was somewhat incredulous.

“Haha, this Bear Taming Divine Technique is definitely not as precious as your Ox Taming Technique. It’s just an ordinary beast taming divine technique, but even so, it’s still a grand achievement,” Ning Ye said.

Lin Chen nodded.

Even ordinary beast-taming divine techniques are indeed rare and priceless.

“Thunder City doesn’t offer this every year. According to the rules, it’s offered once every four years. But this year is special because it’s the Year of the Demon Beast. In order to maintain its competitiveness and attract more beast tamers to contract bears, Thunder City wants to offer it as a reward to attract beast tamers from all over the world.” Ning Ye continued, “You can think about it yourself.”

Lin Chen was indeed somewhat tempted.

He can't stay here forever.

The Monster Hunter Guild is gradually getting on track and has issued many missions with generous rewards, but Lin Chen has seen a lot and these things are no longer enough for him.

It wasn't that he had become greedy, but rather that he also wanted to make the spirit beasts stronger.

This way, he will be safer in the future.

Seeing that Lin Chen was somewhat tempted, Ning Ye said, "You can go, but you must bring Senior Qin with you. Otherwise, it's too dangerous outside. The news of you obtaining the Fire Spirit is still circulating."

Lin Chen nodded.

That evening, Lin Chen went to discuss the matter with Qin Shaoshao, who nodded in agreement.

Actually, it didn't make much difference to her where she was. Lin Chen also looked at the map and found that Lei City was located in the west of the central part of the country.

Although it was not incorporated into the western region, its geographical location already qualifies it as western.

It is also known as the first city outside the Western Regions.

The next day, Lin Chen prepared to take action and invited Qin Hao and the others to dinner.

Qin Hao and the others felt a pang of emotion when they saw Lin Chen about to embark on another long journey.

Lin Chen's fate is now completely different from theirs.

They are still on the path of struggle, but Lin Chen, who is the same age as them, is already famous throughout the world.

As evening approached, Ning Ye personally came to see Lin Chen off.

"I've already informed Nancheng that you're now the vice president of the Monster Hunter Guild's southern region. That title is still useful," Ning Ye said to Lin Chen. "Be careful in everything you do."

Lin Chen bowed and finally left with Qin Shaoshao.

This time, Lin Chen's destination was Thunder City, but he changed his destination and decided to take a detour back to the Spirit Academy first.

However, before that, he needed to go to Nancheng first.

Overall, he wasn't very at ease with Bai Ling.

Although the road to Nancheng is long, with Qin Shaoshao around, it can shorten the travel time considerably.

Therefore, it only took Lin Chen seven days to arrive in Nancheng.

He went to the southern outskirts of the city and found that lonely house again.

He had just landed and was about to bow when an aged voice rang out:

"You've come at a bad time. I've sent Bai Ling up the mountain."

As the sound rang out, the old doctor appeared.

Lin Chen quickly cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Senior."

"No need for formalities," the old doctor said. "Have you come here to say goodbye to her?"

Lin Chen was taken aback, wondering if there really was someone in this world who could predict the future?

This inevitably reminded him of Zhong Nanshan.

Seeing Lin Chen lost in thought, the old doctor chuckled again, "It seems I was wrong?"

"No, that's not it," Lin Chen quickly said. "I'm going far away this time and don't know when I'll return. I'm worried about Bai Ling, so I wanted to come and see her. I'm also going to the Spirit Academy on my way, so I wanted to ask her if she wanted to come along." "Wait here for a moment, she should be back soon," the old doctor said.

"What was she doing in the mountains? Gathering herbs?"

"No, cultivation."

“Cultivation?!” Lin Chen said in surprise, “Didn’t her meridians already break?”

The old doctor smiled and said, "You only reap what you sow. How can you succeed without hard work?"

Lin Chen stared at the old doctor, stunned.

Does that mean he can even do this?

That's just too incredible.

"At least give him something to do, so he won't overthink things," the old doctor explained.

"What you say makes sense, senior." Lin Chen cupped his hands in greeting.

After waiting for half an hour, Bai Ling finally returned.

She was covered in sweat. When she saw Lin Chen appear, she was slightly taken aback, and then said happily, "Lin Chen, you're here."

"Ah."

Seeing that Bai Ling had recovered so well, Lin Chen was relieved.

It seems that she has indeed recovered here.

Back when Bai Ling lost the Devouring Beast, her condition was terrifying.

"You two continue your conversation," the old doctor said before leaving.

Lin Chen took Bai Ling outside and asked her about her life there.

"I want to stay here and recuperate. I won't go back to the Spirit Academy for now," Bai Ling refused, and told Lin Chen about her daily life here.

She still trusted Lin Chen completely, but she didn't tell him about reviving the Devouring Beast.

Because this was something she had promised the old doctor.

Lin Chen nodded. This old doctor looked mysterious, and no one knew his background or past, but he probably didn't have any ill intentions towards Bai Ling.

Otherwise, with his abilities, no one could beat him.

Two hours later, Lin Chen bid them farewell. After leaving, Lin Chen asked Qin Shaoshao, "How are you feeling?"

"Unfathomable." Qin Shaoshao only said four words.

Lin Chen nodded; Zhang Jin had said the same thing in the past.

However, it is fortunate that there is someone taking care of Bai Ling.

Unexpectedly, just as they left and Bai Ling was preparing to go back to rest, the old doctor came out and said, "Bai Ling, pack up, we need to get ready to leave too."

"Should we...should we leave here?" Bai Ling asked.

"Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles," the old doctor said. "Your illness won't be cured so easily; you need to find some medicinal herbs, which we don't have here."

"Do you want to regain your strength?"

“Of course, then we’ll fix it,” Bai Ling said worriedly.

The corpse of the Devouring Beast was kept inside the house, constantly soaking in medicinal herbs.

"Don't worry, I'll just put it into your beast-taming space," the old doctor said.

If Lin Chen heard this, he would definitely be shocked.

The Beast Taming Space is a very private place; to enter, one must have the ability to forcibly open the space.

This ability is something that even current unicorns cannot achieve.

Bai Ling nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and then went back to pack.

The old doctor, however, looked in the direction Lin Chen had left, gently touching his white beard, lost in thought.
