Creating a paradise in an ant nest

Chapter 83 The Method of Soul-Stealing Contract

"My newly purchased Wilderness Spirit Dog encountered this before it even left the house. You should do something about it."

As Liu He spoke, he comforted the trembling, frightened Wilderness Spirit Dog.

"That's natural, it was our mistake."

Li Ping showed great sincerity in apologizing, and then carefully inquired about the details of the incident.

After a moment's thought, she said, "The Wilderness Spirit Dog you bought cost three hundred spirit stones and is injured."

Here's what we'll do: you just need to pay the difference of fifty spirit stones, and you can choose a better-quality Wilderness Spirit Dog.

"ah?"

Liu He was surprised. Did he have to spend another fifty spirit stones?

Although a normal Wilderness Spirit Dog costs four hundred spirit stones, he paid an extra fifty spirit stones, which is equivalent to saving fifty spirit stones. However, he bought the Wilderness Spirit Dog in his arms and did not want to exchange it for another one.

"I feel a connection with it, and I don't want to change it."

He shook his head and refused.

(Please remember the website 20 ...

The reaction was exactly what Li Ping expected. With Li Ping's keen eye, she could see the "bond" between Liu He and this wild spirit dog.

"How about we give you beast food worth twenty spirit stones as a gift?"

That's it?

Liu He thought to himself that the cost of the beast food sold for twenty spirit stones would be even less for the Spirit Pet Pavilion.

Besides, ten catties of animal feed is enough for him. Anyway, there's more than he can eat in the ant nest, so there's no point in having more.

"I don't want animal food either."

He wanted to see how the people from the Spirit Pet Pavilion could handle the situation.

Li Ping pondered a solution. The customer in front of her didn't want to change the spirit beast or accept compensation for the beast food. What else could she do?

But she couldn't return the spirit stones.

The best solution is to resolve the issue at the lowest possible cost; refunding the spirit stones the customer has spent is the most foolish approach.

Got it!

She suddenly had a brilliant idea and came up with a way to "kill two birds with one stone".

She said jokingly, "Since it was the Netherworld Cat that caused the trouble, I'll compensate you with it."

It costs 200 spirit stones, but you only need to pay 150 spirit stones, a discount of 50 spirit stones.

"Forehead----"

Liu He thought to himself that this was even less sincere than the first solution, and he would have to spend another 150 spirit stones.

"I'll also give you a method for forming beast taming contracts."

"I have the law of contracts; I don't need you to provide it."

Liu He thought Li Ping was talking about ordinary contractual methods.

The Beast Taming Contract Technique, like the method for refining spiritual artifacts, is a basic and commonly used spell for cultivators. It can be found in the cultivation technique pavilion of the Qian Yuan Holy Sect and can be practiced at will.

Liu He hasn't learned the Contract Law yet, but he can learn it at the Cultivation Technique Pavilion after he goes back.

"This is not an ordinary contract method; it is a special contract method of our Lingrui Immortal Sect."

"Special contract law?"

Liu He couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Li Ping explained, "What you see everywhere outside is ordinary contract law, but our sect has a variety of contract laws."

Some contract techniques allow for long-distance spiritual communication with spirit beasts, and some even allow for the sharing of talents and lifespans with spirit beasts.

I will bestow upon you a Soul-Suppressing Contract Technique, which uses your powerful divine soul to intimidate spirit beasts and forcibly forge a contract, greatly increasing your success rate in contracting the Netherworld Cat.

"So amazing?"

Liu He was tempted.

He was already making a profit by buying the Netherworld Ferocious Cat for 150 spirit stones. With the special contract technique added to the deal, he made a killing.

"If you don't want the Netherworld Cat, you can choose either of the two solutions I mentioned earlier."

""

Li Ping gave the choice to Liu He.

"I'll buy the Ghostly Cat."

Liu He made his choice without hesitation.

He then gave him 150 spirit stones.

Li Ping took out a secret manual from her storage bag and handed it to Liu He. The cover read "The Soul-Taming Contract Law".

Actually, this contract law isn't of a high rank; it's just slightly different from ordinary contract laws. Within the Lingrui Immortal Sect, this contract law isn't even considered a "cannot be passed on to outsiders" technique.

She exaggerated her story in order to sell the troublesome ghostly cat.

This Netherworld Ferocious Cat was sold twice but returned, and the price was lowered repeatedly until it couldn't be sold even at 200 spirit stones. Now it has injured someone else's Wilderness Spirit Dog.

Being able to sell it would solve a major problem.

Lingxiao Market, a vast and carefree immortal abode.

Compared to the bustling streets and markets, the nights here are very quiet, with manor houses, estates, and cave dwellings scattered throughout the area.

Liu He carried the cage containing the Netherworld Cat in one hand and the Wilderness Spirit Dog in the other, returning to his cave.

He rented this cave dwelling for three spirit stones a day. It was in a secluded and quiet location, nestled against the mountains and beside the water, with a pleasant environment.

He used the jade token to enter the cave.

"shuttle!"

With a single thought, he traversed a distance of over five thousand miles and entered the ant nest located on the Spirit Plant Peak of the Qian Yuan Holy Sect.

Deep within the ant nest, in the magical cave.

Liu He appeared out of thin air with the Wilderness Spirit Dog, the Netherworld Ferocious Cat, and Beast Food.

"Waaaaah~~"

The unfamiliar environment frightened the timid wilderness hound, which whimpered and cowered in Liu He's arms.

The caged griffin sensed danger, its fur bristling, growling and scanning its surroundings with wary eyes.

"Don't be afraid, this is our home, the place where you live."

Liu He comforted them.

He plans to feed the spirit beasts in the ant nest space and will not bring them into reality.

With his monthly salary, and his cultivation improving so quickly, it would definitely arouse suspicion if others discovered that he was feeding spirit beasts.

"Let's eat some animal food first."

He put the Wilderness Spirit Dog on the ground and grabbed a handful of animal food, placing it in front of it.

The young dog was no longer afraid. It wagged its tail happily and began to bury its head in the food, drooling.

Liu He then put another handful of animal food into the Netherworld Ferocious Cat's iron cage.

"Hiss!"

The Nether Cat hissed and sniffed the animal food warily until it could no longer resist the temptation and began to eat.

"This guy is really... Oh well, after all, it was a bargain for 150 spirit stones, so we can't expect too much."

Liu He ignored it.

About half an hour later, seeing that the two spirit beasts had become somewhat familiar with the environment of the spirit artifact cave and were no longer as fearful as when they first arrived, he prepared to leave.

"You two stay here for now. Once I return to the sect, you'll have an endless supply of beast food."

He needs to bring the animal feed into reality and put it into the ant nest.

"By the way, don't wander off, just stay in the cave."

He said this to the Wilderness Hound.

The Spirit Artifact Cave was his personal space, and he had given the ants orders not to enter.

However, there were a large number of ants outside the cave, and he was afraid that the Wilderness Spirit Dog would be terrified if it saw those giant ants.

That being said, even if the Wilderness Spirit Dog encountered ants, it wouldn't be in danger. It had been with Liu He for so long that it was covered in Liu He's scent, and ants rely entirely on scent to identify each other.

In the eyes of the ants, the Wilderness Hound is their companion.

As for the Netherworld Cat, Liu He will not release it from its cage until he is completely familiar with it.

Liu He traveled back to Lingxiao Market, where he first went to buy spirit plant seedlings.

He spent 300 spirit stones to buy the Wilderness Spirit Dog, and another 150 spirit stones to buy the Netherworld Ferocious Cat, leaving him with 100 spirit stones.

This many spirit stones are enough to buy a lot of spirit plant seedlings.

Anyway, he could sell the spiritual plants in his miniature spiritual plant garden at any time, so he didn't need to be stingy with them. If he weren't worried that taking out too many spiritual plants would attract attention, his few acres of violet radish and jade spirit melon could sell for thousands of spirit stones.

He spent thirty spirit stones to buy some spirit tomato and spirit bean seeds, spirit ginseng seedlings, and some spirit fruit seeds and seedlings.

Among them were several hundred seeds of the Jade Spirit Melon.

Seed sellers select and breed seeds to produce jade melons of even better quality.

Anyway, the seeds of the Jade Spirit Melon are very cheap, so Liu He doesn't need to bother breeding them himself.

He bought so many spiritual plant seedlings to supplement the variety of spiritual plants in his spiritual plant garden.

The more important reason is that he wanted to eat it himself.

Although the jade melon is delicious, Liu He gets tired of eating it every day and wants to try something different.

If he only wanted to earn spirit stones, growing jade spirit melons would be enough; he wouldn't dare sell any more precious spirit plants.

He bought a large number of seedlings of different spiritual fruits in order to satisfy his appetite and taste more spiritual fruits.

After purchasing the spiritual plant seedlings, he delivered them to the ant nest at Xiaoyao Xianju.

Then it was almost time to gather and return.

He changed back into his mid-grade magic robe, returned the cave dwelling token and jade tablet from Xiaoyao Immortal Abode, and left Lingxiao Market.

They returned to the Qian Yuan Holy Sect aboard a spirit boat piloted by Zheng Pingyu, the owner of the Spirit Wood Garden.

Liu He returned to Lingmu Garden.

He returned to the wooden house and traversed the ant nest's magical cave.

The Wilderness Hound and the Netherworld Cat were unharmed.

When he was away, the timid wilderness hounds dared not run around and stayed obediently in place.

Upon seeing Liu He appear, the Wilderness Hound wagged its tail, trotted over to him on its short legs, and affectionately rubbed against his feet.

"Haha, so good."

Liu He gently stroked the Wilderness Spirit Dog, then glanced at the Netherworld Ferocious Cat.

The Nether Cat had become more familiar with the place and was no longer as restless as before. It lay in its cage to rest, but its ears were erect, constantly watching for any movement around it.

"I'll go and study the method of beast taming contracts first."

Seeing that the two spirit beasts were safe and sound and had become completely familiar with their surroundings, he felt relieved.

Wangyue Peak is where outer and inner disciples reside.

Liu He arrived at the Kung Fu Pavilion on Wangyue Peak.

He had only a rough understanding of the art of beast taming before, and had not practiced the methods of beast taming.

A special contract technique obtained from the Spirit Pet Pavilion?

How could he easily trust outsiders? He had to first learn the sect's standard contract law and understand the art of beast taming before making any decisions.

After some research, he gained a lot of knowledge about beast taming and contracts.

As Li Ping said, there are various kinds of contract laws, which mainly depend on the type of beast to be tamed.

Ordinary spirit pets, and spirit birds used as flying tools, are usually controlled by ordinary contract methods.

The common methods of contract formation in the outside world are based on this approach.

Rare spirit beasts used in battle are tamed using a special contract method.

These special contract methods are the exclusive techniques of various beast-taming sects, and are not easily passed on to outsiders.

The ordinary contract method is not difficult to learn. Liu He looked at the contents of the contract method in the cultivation method pavilion and memorized it word for word in just half an hour.

He will be able to perform it after he goes back and practices a few more times.
