Chapter 41: The True Art of Subduing Beasts
Su Qingwu didn't want to talk more about this matter. After suppressing his sadness, he turned to talk about the matter at hand.
"Since there is no building here, we have to build one temporarily. Unfortunately, we don't have the corresponding materials. We have to find a way to solve this problem."
Su Wen then spoke:
"If you can return to the sect at any time, then buildings are not necessary. You can treat this place as a courtyard like Shanlan Peak, and come here regularly every day to irrigate the spiritual water and drive away insects and pests."
Su Qingwu nodded slowly.
"That's certainly possible, but I'm worried that if I'm not here for a long time, someone with bad intentions might destroy the spiritual plants. After all, this has happened before."
Su Wen immediately said:
"I have a way to do this. Just contract a spiritual pet and tell it to stay here. It will monitor the spiritual field for you. If someone deliberately damages it, you can report it to the elders of the sect directly after learning the news."
Su Qingwu frowned slightly.
"I don't have any spirit stones in my hand right now, so I can't buy this spirit pet. So how about I just catch one now?"
Su Wen agreed: "What I want to say is to catch them now."
"But... there shouldn't be any monsters on this Bailing Island, right? Anyway, I didn't see any monsters along the way. Do I have to leave the island first and go somewhere else to catch one?"
"Who says there aren't any? Aren't there many in the spiritual fields?"
"...Su Wen, are you talking about those bugs?"
"Yes!"
"......"
"Qingwu, the contract with the spirit pet can be released at any time. There is no need to dwell on it. If you really don't like it, after completing the task, cancel the contract and throw it aside."
"Okay, then Su Wen, do you know the specific method of the contract?"
"Of course I know. There are three types in total. The lowest level has the least restrictions. If the master dies, the beast can survive, and there is a high probability that the beast will devour the master.
At the middle level, the master dies and the beast dies, but the master has no way of knowing what the pet is thinking. If the pet is severely abused and loses its will to live, it will find a way to drag its master to death with it.
In a high-level contract, the master dies and the beast dies, but the life and death of the pet is only in the master's thoughts. The master can completely grasp the pet's thoughts and prevent it from harming him. "
Just as the thought fell, Su Qingwu realized that there was an extra piece of information in the country.
Advanced Beast-Slaying Technique
The divine power of heaven is protected, and no beast can resist it.
Yuan Ling enlightens me and serves me as my master.
......
While reciting this incantation, one needs to form three magic seals, using the divine consciousness as the medium to penetrate into the sea of beast consciousness of the contract.
If it can be completed successfully, the contract will be considered successful.
The corresponding seals all have detailed annotations on the casting gestures.
Su Qingwu quickly memorized it.
Afterwards, he walked into the spiritual field and observed for a while. In front of a tranquilizing flower, he found a colorful insect that he liked. He quickly formed seals with his hands and made a contract with it according to the method Su Wen had said.
At the moment of success, Su Qingwu somehow learned the origin of the insect.
Seven-legged insect, a very rare species.
After forming a cocoon, it can transform into a questing butterfly, which also has the effects of questing and hallucinogenic.
If you encounter an enemy in the future and it escapes, you can easily find it with the Searching Butterfly.
On the way, you can also create illusions to trap the enemy.
If he can grow up smoothly in the future, he can become a great help to Su Qingwu.
It was just a casual contract, but I never expected to receive such a surprise.
She told Su Wen the origin of the colorful insects, and Su Wen, who was well-known in the country, quickly responded.
"Although I don't know how to detect the fortune of monks, I have a hunch that Qingwu, your fortune is definitely not bad!"
The road to cultivation is long, and although the level of luck is not the only factor that affects ascension, it is definitely very important.
People with extremely poor qualifications, if they have enough luck and obtain many natural treasures, with sufficient external assistance, can also embark on the road to ascension.
Even if a person has excellent qualifications but extremely bad luck, he may encounter unexpected disasters from time to time and die.
Su Qingwu's various experiences since he entered Taoism have shown that he has good luck.
This is a good sign.
After making a contract with the seven-legged insect, she left it there and then caught and killed the remaining pests one by one.
When encountering a dense insect infestation, just use the Shanwai Qingyin technique.
Wherever the sound attack passes, all insect pests will be eliminated.
As for the weeds in the spiritual field, leave them for now and deal with them later.
In addition, Su Qingwu also found that a small number of spiritual plants were infected with yellow spot disease.
This disease is highly contagious.
Once discovered, if not dealt with in time, it will quickly spread to neighboring spiritual plants.
Over time, the leaves will begin to rot, emitting an unpleasant odor, and eventually affecting the roots, causing the entire plant to die.
There is no corresponding pesticide for Suqingwu. There is only one way to deal with this disease, which is to directly pull out the infected plants and burn them with fire.
She did not hesitate and took action immediately.
After a moment, all the sixty-nine spiritual plants infected with the disease in the two acres of spiritual fields were pulled out, and then fire starters were taken out and burned.
After finishing this, Su Qingwu stood up, made hand gestures, and performed the Small Spirit Rain Technique.
These spiritual plants are in very poor condition. Under such circumstances, it is not appropriate to use the spring breeze and rain technique to accelerate their growth.
After about half a cup of tea, most of his spiritual power was consumed.
She took out the mysterious stone bottle and used the stored spiritual water to water the seven spiritual plants.
The corresponding voice soon reached my ears.
"Finally, a two-legged beast came to save us~"
“I’m so touched. I thought I couldn’t wait for this day~”
"Oh, those days before were so terrible~"
"The fighting between the two-legged beasts is quite fierce, and they fight and kill each other all day long~"
"Yes, I was really scared to death those days!"
"I think it's good to be a two-legged beast now. Those guys didn't care about our lives at all. It's a miracle that we can hold on until now~"
"That's right, I hope everything will get better and better~"
......
Su Qingwu listened to these words, sent a message to Su Wen, and brought up something.
"Since the original forces stationed here own so many spiritual fields, they would not have left it alone under normal circumstances. I guess there must be a reason for this."
A response quickly came from the sea of consciousness.
"Most likely. No matter which spiritual field you look at, there are spiritual plants with incompatible properties planted there. It may be accidental for one area to be like this, but if it is like this for all of them, then it is intentional."
Su Qingwu was completely puzzled.
"Why would they do this? This behavior... is like they want to deliberately cause damage, but they don't dare to do it too obviously?"
Su Wen pondered for a moment, then replied:
"It's most likely related to the Qianzhi Sect. Perhaps the original power here knew that the high-ranking officials of the Qianzhi Sect had set their sights on this island and were preparing to come and fight for it, so they acted like this."
After listening to this, Su Qingwu was thoughtful.
"If that's the case, it makes sense. The two sides may have negotiated before, but they didn't reach an agreement, so they ended up fighting. Those people should have all died, right?"
Su Wen immediately said:
"In the battle of powers in the world of immortal cultivation, the victorious side will basically wipe out the enemy completely. Unless the opponent has a very sophisticated way to save his life, it is basically impossible to escape death."
Su Qingwu nodded secretly, and at the same time, a trace of worry arose in his heart.
"If someone really escaped, then this island is not very safe..."
