"Roar!" The violent stone monster instantly returned to its original state, but its eyes became even more bloodshot. It let out an angry roar and rushed towards Mu Hanyan again. It seemed that although the sword just now did not seriously injure it, it still caused it a lot of pain, which completely aroused its anger.
Mu Hanyan's heart sank. She hadn't expected that the violent stone monster's innate abilities were so powerful. Even her Nine Heavens Star Falling Sword couldn't break through its defense after being petrified. This was a bit troublesome.
Seeing the violent stone monster charging at her again, Mu Hanyan could only deploy her skills to avoid its attack. The Nine Heavens Star Falling Sword consumed a great deal of energy; the previous strike had already consumed a tenth or a twenty-first of her energy. If she continued like this for a dozen more strikes, she would be on the ground before the violent stone monster could even fall.
This was the result after her strength was improved. If it was when she had just comprehended the Nine Heavens Star Falling Sword, three sword strikes would have exhausted her energy and she would have no strength to fight again.
Relying on her sharp six senses, Mu Hanyan fought against the violent stone monster. However, how could human physique compare to that of the strange beast? Later, the violent stone monster became more and more courageous, roaring wildly and emitting ferocious aura. Mu Hanyan gradually felt a little exhausted.
No, this is not a solution!
…
While Mu Hanyan was struggling with the violent stone monster, the others had already left the beast taming room. Taming the weakest wind rabbits, which weren't even domesticated yet, wasn't difficult for them.
"Hey, we are all fine, but is Mu Hanyan not well yet?" Soon, everyone discovered that except Mu Hanyan, everyone else had achieved success and left the beast taming room easily.
Because of the existence of the seal, they could not hear the roars of beasts coming from the beast taming room where Mu Hanyan was.
"With her talent, it's impossible that she can't even tame a mere Wind Rabbit?" someone said in disbelief.
"It's hard to say. As the saying goes, every inch has its own strengths and weaknesses. Maybe this beast-taming skill is her weak spot." Someone speculated.
"That's true. I was saying it, how could there be such a talented person in the world who is good at everything? She still has weaknesses after all." Such speculation made many people breathe a sigh of relief. After all, living in the same era as such a talented person, and studying under the same school, the pressure is too great.
Teacher Liang also looked at the closed door in confusion: Could it be that this beast-taming technique is really Mu Hanyan's biggest weakness?
Just then, hurried footsteps were heard behind me. Deng Yingjie and Instructor Zhu came over anxiously, wiping the sweat from their foreheads as they ran.
"Palace Master, what happened? Why are you so anxious?" Instructor Liang stepped forward and asked.
The other disciples also bowed and looked at the two curiously.
"Have you seen my violent stone monster?" Palace Master Deng asked everyone anxiously.
Everyone shook their heads.
"Palace Master Deng, is your violent stone monster lost?" Instructor Liang asked with concern.
"Yes, I left it to guard the library when I went out this morning, but it was nowhere to be found when I came back," said Palace Master Deng.
"Isn't that your sword pet? Just use the beast taming technique to find it." Instructor Liang said to Palace Master Deng without any hurry.
"If the beast taming technique was effective, would I have come here? You don't know, the bloodline of the violent stone beast awakened again a few days ago, and it finally comprehended the innate ability of petrification. Because its strength has greatly increased, the contract I originally made with it is not so effective. I was trying to find a way to renegotiate the contract, but I didn't expect it to run away without a trace." Palace Master Deng said with a wry smile.
"Could he have gone to another branch?" Professor Liang speculated.
"We've all looked for him. If he had gone to other colleges, someone would have seen him or made some noise, but there's still no news at all," Professor Zhu interrupted.
"Where did you go at that time? Did you leave the college?" When Teacher Liang said this, his expression changed slightly.
"This is what I'm most worried about. If it runs out of the capital and is seen by other cultivators, they will definitely attack it. Although I have tamed it as a sword pet for many years, it is still difficult to get rid of its animal nature. How can it allow itself to be slaughtered? Its bloodline has awakened again, and its strength is several times stronger than before. If it starts to attack, who knows how many lives it will kill. If its murderous intent is aroused, even innocent people will be harmed." Palace Master Deng said worriedly.
"Palace Master Deng, don't worry. Let's look for it carefully. Maybe the situation is not that bad." When Instructor Liang thought of the consequences, his scalp went numb. He could only comfort Palace Master Deng in this way.
"Palace Master, do you think it will run to the beast taming room? I remember it has come here to scare people before." At this time, a disciple spoke up.
"Who else hasn't come out?" Palace Master Deng's eyes lit up when he heard this.
The violent stone monster was actually not very old. It had just grown up not long ago. When it was a little younger, it often came to the beast taming room to scare people. However, after all, it was a contracted sword pet, so it never hurt anyone. It would often scare people half to death and make them faint on the spot, and then quietly leave. By the way, it would also help the other party to slap the strange beast that needed to be tamed to death. After it woke up, it could leave the beast taming room on its own.
If this happens again this time, it would be a false alarm.
"Mu Hanyan." A disciple said in a buzzing voice.
"All the other disciples have successfully tamed the Wind Spirit Rabbit, and only Mu Hanyan hasn't come out yet. If I'm not mistaken, she probably encountered the Palace Master's sword pet." Instructor Liang added.
He said that with Mu Hanyan's qualifications, no matter how poor she was, she shouldn't be unable to tame a mere Wind Spirit Rabbit. Now it seems that the biggest possibility is that the violent stone monster has come to scare people again, so Mu Hanyan was delayed for a while.
Palace Master Deng also thought of this and breathed a sigh of relief.
"However, she doesn't seem to know about the violent stone beast." Zirong added.
In the past, whenever a new disciple arrived at the Beast Taming Hall, the instructor would mention the violent stone monster, so that everyone could be mentally prepared and pretend to be dead. When the monster got bored, it would naturally leave. However, today, Instructor Liang was so concerned about Mu Hanyan that he was anxious to get away from her as soon as possible and the farther away from her, the better, that he forgot to mention it.
"What!" Palace Master Deng's smile froze on his face.
If it were anyone else, unaware of the Berserk Stone Beast, they would have fainted at best. But how could Mu Hanyan possibly faint? In all likelihood, it would attack. The Berserk Stone Beast's bloodline had awakened again, and the previous contracts could no longer suppress it. If it unleashed its full ferocity, Mu Hanyan would likely be in grave danger.
