Chapter 1047: Beating Down
Chapter 1047: Beating Down
It was then that Rean asked the man. “Oh, right! How impolite of me. Brother, what’s your name?”
“You can call me Litian. I’m one of the elders here in the Demon Beast Taming Guild branch,” the man indifferently replied.
A few minutes and many demon beasts later, they finally arrived at a room protected by a formation. Inside, it was possible to see a Demon Bird that was about three-fourths of Kentucky’s size. It had yellow and white feathers and a crest. At the moment, it looked quite angry.
Other than that, there was a cultivator in front of it, holding a giant black fruit as he looked at the Demon Bird, telling it, “There’s no point in you looking at me like that. You know I can beat you down easily. But look, I brought your Golden Rascol’s favorite fruit, a Lunar Peach.”
The Golden Rascol was a type of Demon Bird that looked a lot like a falcon from Rean’s world. Of course, this one was much bigger.
It looked at the Lunar Peach on that cultivator’s hand, and it was obvious that it was conflicted as to whether it should take it or not. It wasn’t as if it could understand the cultivator’s words, but it could tell that using force wasn’t an option to get the Lunar Peach. Normally, it would have attacked a long time ago to get the fruit by force, but it had been beaten by that same cultivator multiple times already.
Rean couldn’t help but ask as they watched, “What is he doing?”
“He’s trying to gain the Golden Rascol’s trust. This is the Demon Bird I talked about. Because it has been locked down here for a long time, it has become quite restless. However, can you see that cultivator there?” Rean and Roan nodded and waited for Litian to continue. “He was the cultivator I talked about. His name is Fylson Yelnan, the Four Star Demon Beast Tamer. As you can see, the Rascol doesn’t even dare to attack anymore as it understands it isn’t a match to Fylson. It probably won’t take long before it starts to take the food from his hand.”
Roan couldn’t help but ask after that, “Why do I feel like it isn’t that simple? I can feel that Fylson is using his Divine Energy in a strange manner? In fact, it’s slightly covering the Rascol.”
Litian nodded as he explained, “That’s correct. Other than simply showing that you’re stronger or that you can treat it well, you can also use your Divine Energy to make the Demon Beast slowly become aware of you. This is a taming technique quite complicated to master as any mistake will only make the beast angrier instead. Fylson seems to have become quite experienced with it. Without that, I doubt that he would be able to tame this Rascol at all.”
Rean and Roan continued to watch as the Rascol seemed to reach a decision. It then slowly approached Fylson’s hand, ready to take the Lunar Peach. Fylson, of course, was delighted to see that. For the Rascol to accept his Lunar Peach without trying to attack was proof that it was beginning to really trust him. Once that step was taken, taming the Demon Beast wouldn’t be that hard anymore.
However, just as the Rascol was about to take the Lunar Peach, its eyes changed direction and looked at the man holding the peach. Soon after, it burst with Divine Energy and used its wings to try and chop Fylson’s hand!
“You dare!”
*Bang!*
Too bad that Fylson was much stronger than it. With a single movement, he dodged the Demon Bird’s attack before launching one of his own. The Rascol was sent to the ground, making the surrounding area tremble due to the impact.
*Creeeee!*
It then began to struggle and flap its wings everywhere. It was obvious that it had become berserk now that it felt the danger of being killed. One must remember that demon beasts didn’t have sentience before the Transition Realm, so it was a normal reaction to that situation.
“Fuck!” Fylson cursed out loud before he left the protection formation. He knew that it would be useless to try and gain the Rascol’s trust while it didn’t calm down. However, he quickly calmed himself down as well. “It’s fine. It won’t be long before it takes my offer with my Divine Energy working on it.”
Fylson then turned around and saw Litian there. “Oh, elder Litian. Is there something you need?”
Litian shook his head as he told Fylson, “It’s not me. These two new members of the Demon Beast Taming Guild want to try and tame the Golden Rascol. They even paid the 500 Divine Stones already.”
“New members?” Fylson looked at Rean and Roan and could tell that they were in the Middle Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm. “Are you Beast Tamers from some other branch?”
Rean and Roan shook their heads as Rean said in response, “It’s the first time we enter a Demon Beast Taming Guild. We have never tried to tame a demon beast either.”
“Hahaha!” Fylson couldn’t help but laugh out loud after hearing that. “And you want to tame that Rascol? Sure, go ahead. I very much want to see how you’ll do it.” He worked so hard to get to this stage. Even if they did have a chance of taming the Rascol, it would definitely accept him as its master before Rean and Roan could do anything. Besides, he didn’t think that they could tame it at all.
It was then that Litian and Fylson were taken aback. Rean and Roan didn’t even wait for the demon beast to calm down. They simply entered the protection formation while it was still raging around. The twins didn’t care too much, though.
The Golden Rascol obviously noticed Rean and Roan’s arrival, so it immediately attacked.
*Creeeeee!*
However…
*Bang!*
Roan immediately pummeled it to the ground, breaking many of its bones in the process. Roan could fight head-on against Saint Realm and Stage Seven Demon Beasts. A simple Stage Five Demon Beast couldn’t possibly show him any resistance.
“What?!” Litian and Fylson were shocked by that. “What are you doing?! If you kill it, then there’s no point in trying to tame it at all!”
