Chapter 193: Beast Taming Expert

"Another potential seventh-grade ally!"

Lu Xuan looked at the white jade ape happily savoring the grilled fish, a warm and genuine smile on his face.

"Is it enough? If not, there's more here."

He said softly to the white jade ape beside him.

The cloud-stepping lynx, who was devouring fish on the side, heard the words, lifted its head, and looked at Lu Xuan with puzzled emerald eyes.

It seemed to have sensed a familiar flavor just now.

In response, Lu Xuan shot it a stern glance.

The intelligent white jade ape, resembling a crystal-clear red jade, looked at Lu Xuan with its eyes, and after getting his confirmation, approached the fragrant grilled fish.

Lu Xuan used his silver blade to cut a piece and handed it to the white jade ape.

The little monkey took it with both hands, lowered its head, and slowly walked behind the white jade lynx to savor the delicacy.

"So well-behaved..."

Lu Xuan exclaimed.

"So gentle, understanding, shy, completely different from the fierceness and aggressiveness described in the information."

He couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled.

Not far away, the Profound white phoenix walked elegantly and arrived in front of Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan saw a hint of desire in its black-and-white eyes, cut off a piece of grilled fish, and tossed it to the phoenix.

"You little thing, quite loyal. I mentioned it to you last time, and this time, I really brought a companion."

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

After all the grilled fish was consumed, he took out a piece of crab spirit ointment from his storage bag as a dessert.

He cut it into pieces and gave each of the two small creatures and the phoenix a piece.

"I wonder how the sect cares for guardian spirit beasts, whether they let them roam freely or have cultivators specifically taking care of them."

"However, even if there are cultivators taking care of them, they might only feed them with specific spirit fruits or materials from demonic beasts."

"Unlike here, where we have various methods to cook demonic beast meat – braising, steaming, roasting... a variety of options."

"Plus, various flavors of spirit fruits obtained from the light clusters."

"With this set of combinations, they might be bewildered and enchanted."

On the mountain peak, he planted numerous new varieties of spirit plants, consuming more energy. Fortunately, after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, his spiritual power was abundant enough to cope with the large number of spirit plants.

In his free time, he practiced the newly acquired techniques. Due to his ordinary aptitude, progress was slow, but Lu Xuan was not overly anxious.

Success in cultivation would be excellent, and even if it failed, he could still obtain various rewards from the spirit plant light clusters, possibly even surpassing the sect's cultivation techniques.

One day, while cultivating spirit plants, a familiar clear voice came from outside the courtyard.

"Junior Brother Lu, are you at home?"

"Senior Brother Yang, I'm here."

Lu Xuan's figure was like a wisp of white smoke, swiftly floating to the foot of the mountain. He controlled the array, dispelling the thick mist, revealing a figure.

It was the middle-aged Confucian scholar who had helped him solve the ink-scaled dragon's diet problem during the Qi Refinement stage. When Lu Xuan just broke through, he generously gifted him a Fire Dragon Egg.

"Junior Brother Lu, it's been a while. Your cultivation has become more stable."

"You flatter me, Senior Brother. I've been staying on the mountain, diligently cultivating. That's the only way I've achieved a little progress."

Lu Xuan casually replied. Although the experience gained from picking the Firefly Grass was reduced due to the vast difference in levels, it still brought him nearly two and a half years of cultivation, thoroughly stabilizing his Foundation Establishment stage.

"How

's the hatching of the dragon egg going?"

The middle-aged Confucian scholar walked beside Lu Xuan, smiling and asking.

"Everything is going smoothly. It shouldn't be long before it hatches."

"That's good."

"Junior Brother Lu, I came this time with a request."

"There's a friend from another sect who has encountered a problem related to spirit beasts recently."

"He has a rare pair of ancient exotic beasts, twins in one body. Now, they've reached the breeding stage, but they can't meet the conditions for the beasts' reproduction. They've been trying many methods without success."

"I see that Junior Brother Lu has a unique talent in this aspect, so I'd like to invite you to come and help."

"Another spirit beast reproduction problem. I'm turning into an expert in this field."

Lu Xuan sighed inwardly.

After solving the problem of the Spirit Crane in the Beast Taming Hall's declining birth rate, a new issue emerged – special exotic beasts couldn't reproduce.

Moreover, judging by the tone and expression of the middle-aged Confucian scholar Yang Qingfeng, this problem was definitely not ordinary.
