Eternal Life from the Golden Needle Technique

Chapter 96: Chapter 93: Beast Taming Secret Technique

Although the bare-chested man was a Qi Introduction Seventh Layer Cultivator,

Shen Changchuan was rather disappointed with the spoils from his Storage Bag; clearly, he wasn’t very satisfied.

This was to be expected.

After all, the entire Storage Bag only contained a little over six hundred Spirit Stones.

Aside from those,

there wasn’t much else of value.

The most numerous items in the Storage Bag were Wasted Pills that were clearly full of Elixir Poison.

It seemed they were used to feed the Demon Beasts under his control.

Add in some miscellaneous odds and ends like Miscellaneous Ores and Demon Beast Materials,

and that was basically the entire contents of the Storage Bag.

No Magical Artifacts,

no Talismans,

not even any Cultivation Elixirs.

Perhaps he once had some. For instance, the Heart-Protecting Mirror he used to block the final blow, and the multiple layers of Talisman Shields he’d wrapped himself in,

were likely his last-resort defensive measures.

But evidently, all of them had been destroyed by Shen Changchuan’s Cyan Wood Sword Light.

Naturally, this meant even fewer spoils to be had.

But in any case,

this amount of wealth was truly pathetic for a Qi Introduction Seventh Layer Cultivator.

Fortunately, however,

while there wasn’t much in the way of tangible, valuable loot,

Shen Changchuan was still somewhat satisfied.

This was because,

he had found some Cultivation Magic, as well as some cultivation notes and the like.

Among them,

was a worn Jade Slip that recorded a Technique called the Beast Taming Technique.

Besides this, there were also many densely written notes on the experience of cultivating the Beast Taming Technique.

Clearly,

this Beast Taming Technique was the bare-chested man’s primary Magic, the one he relied upon.

Having such a Magic fall into his lap

undoubtedly solved Shen Changchuan’s most pressing need.

For example,

his idea of controlling the Gale Falcon

to gain the ability to fly could now be set in motion!

’If I can successfully cultivate this and control the Gale Falcon as a mount, then Zhao Family Village is only seventy or eighty li away. With its flying speed, I could get there in a quarter of an hour at most.’

’That would significantly increase the security of Zhao Family Village.’

’Plus, with that creature, my mobility will be greatly enhanced. It will undoubtedly make my future explorations into the mountains much more convenient!’

Holding the Jade Slip that recorded the Beast Taming Technique, a glint flashed in Shen Changchuan’s eyes.

He recalled the undisguised greed that had appeared in the bare-chested man’s eyes the moment he saw the subdued Gale Falcon in his hands.

It was no wonder the man hadn’t even given him a chance to talk,

and had decided to strike immediately.

With so much to gain, believing himself to be in a position of strength, and being out in the wilderness, he naturally wouldn’t let the opportunity slip by.

However, this also served as a warning to Shen Changchuan.

A prize like the Gale Falcon—

especially one at the Qi Introduction Sixth Layer Peak, almost at the Seventh Layer—

combined with the fact that he now possessed the Beast Taming Skill... unless absolutely necessary, he’d best not reveal this combination in front of others.

Possessing such a combination could even make veteran Qi Introduction Ninth Layer masters covetous!

After all, before advancing to the Soul Emergence Realm,

Cultivators were unable to fly through the air.

And for many Cultivators, the Soul Emergence Realm was an insurmountable chasm, something they could only dream of reaching in their entire lives.

As the thought flashed through his mind,

Shen Changchuan briefly inspected the Jade Slip that recorded the Beast Taming Secret Technique.

He skimmed through its specific contents.

It didn’t take long for him to get a general understanding of this Secret Technique.

This Secret Technique

primarily relied on the cultivator’s powerful Divine Sense Power to leave an imprint on the Divine Soul Consciousness of a Demon Beast that had been beaten half to death and had no will to resist.

Then, by connecting to this imprint through the Secret Technique, one could control the Demon Beast.

The specific details

would require Shen Changchuan to personally cultivate it to fully comprehend them.

However, just by glancing at the contents,

Shen Changchuan finally understood why there was such a huge difference in the effect of the Soul-Attracting Bell when he used it twice against the bare-chested man.

His guess had been correct!

The first time he activated the Soul-Attracting Bell, the man’s Divine Sense was powerful, so the bell’s attack couldn’t shake his spirit much.

But the second time,

the man had just released numerous Demon Beasts and was controlling them to attack Shen Changchuan.

In this process, the bare-chested man’s Divine Soul Power was heavily divided and consumed,

so, naturally,

the bare-chested man was instantly frozen in place, allowing Shen Changchuan to easily unleash the Cyan Wood Sword Light and slay him in one fell swoop!

’It seems this Beast Taming Secret Technique can only be a supplementary skill, not something to be fully relied upon in battle. Otherwise, the bare-chested man’s fate will be a lesson for me!’

’But then again, why was that bare-chested man so careless? Could it be that he’d had smooth sailing ever since obtaining this Beast Taming Secret Technique? Had he never encountered an attack targeting Divine Sense, leaving him unaware of the Beast Taming Technique’s weakness? Did he let his guard down completely, only to be tripped up by the Soul-Attracting Bell?’

Shen Changchuan secretly mulled over this possibility.

It didn’t seem too far-fetched.

Whether it was Magical Artifacts or Secret Techniques related to the Divine Soul, they were all incredibly rare.

For example,

in the Shen Family’s Scripture Pavilion, one could find information on the legacy of Alchemy.

But there wasn’t a single Secret Technique to be found that could enhance one’s Divine Sense!

Elixirs like the Cyan Essence Purifying Spirit Pill, which could strengthen the Divine Soul and improve one’s aptitude, were priced as astronomically high as the Soul Emergence Pill!

It was rare to see any techniques related to Divine Sense Power out in the world,

so that was perfectly normal.

However...

A Magical Artifact as rare as the Soul-Attracting Bell...

Where did the He Mountain Four Fierce get it from back then?

Furthermore,

the Fragment of the Cyan Wood Sword Light also came from the spoils they left behind.

They possessed such a powerful Magic Fragment...

It seemed

that the He Mountain Four Fierce of the past

had some great secrets of their own!

A thought flashed through Shen Changchuan’s mind, and an idea began to form.

He wondered where the He Mountain Four Fierce had obtained all these treasures.

The Cyan Wood Sword Light was so powerful from just a single page of its Fragment;

if he ever had the chance to obtain the complete Technique,

wouldn’t that be an even more terrifying ability?

Perhaps,

when he had time in the future,

he could look into any news related to the He Mountain Four Fierce.

Deep in his heart,

Shen Changchuan secretly planted a seed.

After sorting through all the spoils, Shen Changchuan had no intention of immediately cultivating the Beast Taming Secret Technique.

Instead, he briefly skimmed the section on how to wear down a Demon Beast’s will to resist, preparing to use it on the Gale Falcon,

before temporarily setting the technique aside.

He knew very well

that the Beast Taming Technique could be cultivated slowly later on.

The most urgent matter at hand

was still to face the future upheavals in the Border Desolate Land!

Therefore,

without wasting any more time,

after resolving the major issue of the Gale Falcon, Shen Changchuan returned to Dawan Village and once again began his secluded cultivation, grinding away at his Basic Magic.

In the blink of an eye,

another month passed.
