Chapter 155: Subdue the beast and establish a contract with the beast
Xiao Ying laughed: "I don't have any ambitions. I don't want to overthrow the imperial court, nor do I want to rule the country. I just want to establish a sect of my own."
"I have no interest in power, nor do I like intrigue. I just hope to cultivate more talents and make this world a better place."
Power and spiritual practice are actually diametrically opposed. People who are obsessed with power will definitely not be able to calm down and practice, and their cultivation level will not be very high.
This was the case in the world of immortal cultivation in my previous life. Sects could support several countries, but it was difficult for the royal families of each country to produce masters.
Even if they have more resources and can build the foundation-building stage or even the golden elixir, none of them can enter the Nascent Soul stage.
The further you progress in your practice, the more you need to understand. The competition is no longer just about resources.
So it is the same in this life. After establishing a sect, she can support the country, but she will definitely not become the emperor herself.
"It turns out that Madam has such a broad mind."
Ling Yun admired him, but he did not think that establishing a sect was easier than building an empire.
But no matter what, he will do his best to follow his wife.
"Pick some fruits and let's go up the mountain to eat them."
Xiao Ying didn't say anything more and walked towards the stone steps.
Ling Yun quickly went to pick fruits, picked some of each and put them into the storage bag, then followed her pace.
This time it was much faster to climb the mountain, it only took a quarter of an hour.
Only when he reached the top of the mountain did Ling Yun realize that there was such a magnificent building here.
Going around to the backyard, Xiao Ying opened the study door and the two sat down on both sides of the desk.
Then, Xiao Ying took out the white jade box and took out the spirit stone.
"This is for testing your spiritual roots. Put your right hand on it and try it."
Ling Yun placed his hand on the stone out of curiosity. Seven lines lit up at the same time, and corresponding values appeared.
"Fire: 81; Earth: 57, it really is an earth spirit root."
Even though he had guessed it a long time ago, Xiao Ying still felt envious when he saw such a high number.
She also had earth spiritual roots in her previous life, and she knew very well how fast cultivation could be achieved. It was completely different from this life.
"But he only has dual spiritual roots. Although his cultivation speed is fast, his strength is average among his peers."
This is probably the only disadvantage.
After the poison in his body is eliminated, perhaps he can take a spiritual herb.
"Madam, my spiritual roots are not good?"
Ling Yun was puzzled that his wife actually said that his strength was average.
Xiao Ying glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "Your spiritual roots are very good, and you can get even better in the future."
As he said this, he put away the spirit stone and formally taught him how to draw talismans. Ling Yun also became serious.
The first step is to understand the material.
Drawing talismans requires talisman pens, talisman paper, cinnabar and other materials. The higher the quality of these materials, the higher the success rate of drawing the talisman.
Xiao Ying gave Ling Yun the materials he had obtained in the cabin when he entered the third level of Qi Refining last time, and then explained the key points of drawing talismans.
The first talisman she taught was the first-level talisman. This type of talisman is very suitable for cultivators in the early stages of Qi Refining. Its power is very limited and it is suitable for beginners to draw.
"This is a first-level flame talisman."
She drew one casually. The talisman pen seemed to have vitality in her hand. Every stroke was as smooth as flowing water, without any obstruction.
The talisman was completed, and a faint golden light flashed, and then everything was absorbed into it. It was a flame talisman of superb quality.
Xiao Ying nodded with satisfaction: "This talisman is enough to attack an ordinary Qi Refining Level 4."
After he finished speaking, he injected a stream of spiritual power and threw it out casually. Suddenly, a fire dragon as thick as a bowl or plate jumped out of the yard with an astonishing momentum.
With her current ability, she can draw dozens of pictures in one go, so she doesn't feel bad at all.
Ling Yun's eyes lit up, and he stared at Xiao Ying's movements without blinking the whole time. Every stroke gradually emerged in his mind, making him eager to try it himself.
"Ma'am, can I try?"
He couldn't help but ask.
"You remember everything?"
Xiao Ying was a little surprised. She was quite fast just now. An ordinary person probably couldn't even remember how many strokes the talisman had, let alone its specific shape.
As for controlling the temperature when injecting spiritual power, there is no need to mention it.
"I've memorized all the patterns." Ling Yun nodded.
He was a little nervous, worried that his wife would think he was too ambitious and wasting materials.
"Then you can try it." Xiao Ying gave him all the materials and reminded him: "Concentrate and don't worry about wasting materials."
Drawing talismans is a process of practicing one by one. She now has a lot of materials, so there is no problem in training Ling Yun for the time being.
"yes."
Ling Yun was indeed much more relaxed. He dipped some ink made from cinnabar on the tip of his pen and began to practice with full concentration.
However, after just two strokes, it failed unsurprisingly.
He was a little embarrassed. He had the pattern in mind, but he just couldn't control himself when he put pen to paper.
"Don't get discouraged, keep practicing."
Xiao Ying reminded him and left him hundreds of blank talisman papers, asking him to practice slowly.
"Your current problem is that the spiritual energy you inject into it is uneven. This requires a lot of practice."
"I remember that."
Ling Yun looked solemn, regained his confidence, and began to draw the second picture.
"You practice, I'll go out for a walk."
When he failed a few more times but made progress each time, Xiao Ying gave him some pointers and felt relieved.
Ling Yun no longer needed her to watch over him, she could go and do her own things.
She had not explored the rest of the mountain, especially the ferocious beasts. She didn't know how many there were and what realm they were in.
She planned to catch a few and sign contracts with them. She, Ling Yun, and the children would each have one. She could also get one to guard the house and to place in the chili workshop.
By the way, we can also put one in the mountains to protect the people and scare away the wild beasts in the mountains.
With this calculation, she has to catch at least nine, and hopes that there are a few in the middle stage of Qi Refining.
With her current strength, she could form a bond with a ferocious beast that was three levels stronger than her, that is, the seventh level of Qi Refining, but she estimated that there were none in the mountains.
He changed the direction and entered the forest, heading towards the place where the ferocious beast was roaring. After a while, he actually encountered one.
She was lucky, as the first ferocious beast she encountered was at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
It was a peach-colored beast, about the same size as a tiger. It looked very beautiful, and Xiao Ying took a fancy to it immediately.
Seeing the ferocious beast rushing towards him, Xiao Ying did not dodge, but directly used the control authority of the Immortal Palace to imprison the other party.
The ferocious beast seemed to realize something and trembled, then bent its knees and knelt in front of her.
Xiao Ying was very satisfied with its understanding. After all, if it could cultivate to this level, it must have a high IQ and know how to adapt to the times.
"Sign a contract with me. I am the owner of this immortal palace and I will not let you suffer any loss."
She looked down at the ferocious beast, making no secret of her purpose.
There was a flicker of struggle in the beast's eyes, but in the end it nodded in humiliation.
Its life is in the hands of the other party, so what else can it do if it refuses to surrender?
Xiao Ying smiled, then placed his hand on its head, concluding a master-servant contract.
There are generally two types of contracts with ferocious beasts. One is a master-servant contract of absolute control, and the other is a contract with the natal beast.
There can only be one natal beast, and the two must help each other and grow together. If one dies, the other will be seriously injured and fall into a lower realm, so be very careful when choosing a partner.
However, a master-servant contract can have an unlimited number of contracted beasts, with the master controlling the beast's life and death. This was the contract she was currently signing.
