Longevity, starting from raising chickens

"Dao treasures, spiritual beasts..."

Wang Ba's mind raced and his face darkened.

Not only the Taoist treasures and spiritual beasts, but also the storage Taoist treasures that Chao Tianjun had given him before, and the more than one hundred cultivators from the Sea of ​​Chaos hidden in his sleeves, all disappeared!

At this moment, everything in himself disappeared, except himself.

"Master Chao shouldn't covet these things on me... Besides, even if he is a Mahayana cultivator, it is impossible for him to completely deceive my perception and steal the things on me. So, could it be..."

Wang Ba's heart moved slightly and he looked at the ferocious beasts around him.

However, they soon discovered that these ferocious beasts were actually part of the ten thousand-headed ferocious beast under Chao Tianjun's command, which was comparable to a Mahayana cultivator.

Among them, there are nearly a thousand different kinds of ferocious beasts.

He immediately remembered what Chao Tianjun had just said.

"By fusing the bloodlines of a thousand kinds of fierce beasts, one can be considered to have mastered the true meaning of beast control in the Silkworm Dragon Realm..."

"But if you want to completely master this 'Unbridled Ten Thousand Beasts', thoroughly study the bloodlines of thousands of ferocious beasts and successfully integrate them, it will probably take tens of thousands of years!"

"Master Chao, does he not want me to participate in the war between the Supreme Buddha and Yuntian Realm? Could it be that he has a premonition of something?"

Wang Ba's heart sank slightly. He had completely awakened from his previous state of immersion in the art of taming beasts. His mind instantly became delicate and meticulous. At this moment, thinking back to what the old man in white had just said, he immediately felt a hint of entrustment in the other party's seemingly free and easy words.

This made his heart suddenly solemn.

Master Chao is a Mahayana cultivator who is already at the top of the Sea Realm and may ascend to the Second Sea Realm at any time. Such a person can be called a "half-immortal". Even such an existence has no confidence in the upcoming war. He really does not know how powerful the power of the Supreme True Buddha is.

He quickly thought of another key question:

"It is possible to fuse the bloodlines of a thousand beasts, but it would take too long..."

The Ogura Realm is still waiting for his return in the Sea of ​​Realm Chaos. If the time is short, three to five hundred years would not matter, but if the time interval is too long, I am afraid everyone will think that he died outside and cannot return.

In fact, most of the cultivators in Xiaocang Realm are at a level below the fusion stage. Considering their lifespans, they may not be able to wait for him to return even after their lifespans end.

"Master Chao did have good intentions, but he did something bad!"

When Wang Ba thought of the old friends in Xiaocang Realm who died of old age while waiting, he couldn't help but become anxious. He immediately stood up and wanted to leave this place.

However, no matter how far or how long he flew, when he looked down, he could always see the densely packed ferocious beasts walking not far away around him, neither hurried nor slow.

"What kind of secret place is this?!"

Wang Ba was shocked and subconsciously controlled his Xuanhuang Dao Realm, trying to break the constraints here.

But the next moment, he was stunned.

“Daoyu…is also gone!”

"This is definitely not a secret place... Could it be an illusion?!"

He suddenly woke up.

He silently practiced the Supreme Emotion Refining Technique, and at the same time tried to control the power of the Yin God to break the illusion here.

However, no matter how he tried, he knew that what he saw was fake, but he still couldn't see through it.

He thought of many ways, but still couldn't leave here.

At this moment, the methods of the Mahayana monks finally showed an insurmountable gap.

Wang Ba had a complicated expression.

At this moment, I recalled again what Master Chao said before he left.

"Someone will take care of the things outside... Can you stay here and practice well?"

"In this case, there is no other way."

Wang Ba took a deep breath, looked around at the ferocious beasts that were no different from living creatures, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes.

"It's not hopeless to fuse the bloodlines of a thousand beasts... The key is not to delay it too long. No, the sooner the better."

"So, we can't follow the normal method and integrate them one by one. Otherwise, it may take tens of thousands of years to succeed."

The difference between any two bloodlines of ferocious beasts is very large. If you want to fuse two bloodlines that are originally unrelated, according to the method passed down by Chao Tianjun, you need to first thoroughly study the bloodlines of the two ferocious beasts, then find the commonalities, and gradually blend them. Ultimately, the differences in the bloodlines can find a balance between each other, and complete a gain-type fusion while retaining their respective consciousness.

Here, gain is a prerequisite, because blood fusion is not always benign, it may also be weakening or even destructive.

Therefore, this requires extremely high requirements for the selection and order of blood matching. Even among the billions of combinations of the bloodlines of the thousand ferocious beasts, there may be only one that can successfully reach the level of Chao Tianjun's ten thousand-headed ferocious beast.

Of course, it is possible to surpass it completely, but the possibility is very, very small.

In addition to this, the bloodline after the fusion is completed can be regarded as a brand new bloodline. It is necessary to re-understand the situation of this type of bloodline, find the bloodline of the most compatible ferocious beast from other ferocious beasts, repeat the previous operation, and so on, until the "ten thousand beasts" is achieved.

And every time a new bloodline is fused, the practitioner of 'Ten Thousand Beasts Without Reinforcements' needs to take into consideration one more bloodline, which is undoubtedly a great test for the practitioner's mental strength.

Therefore, Wang Ba is even optimistic that it will take tens of thousands of years to integrate the bloodlines of these thousand ferocious beasts.

"Master Chao did not ask me to fuse a beast like the one with ten thousand heads, but only asked me to fuse it smoothly. This is obviously much easier..."

The order of fusion into ten thousand ferocious beasts may be unique, but if it is just a simple fusion without any mandatory effect, there are more possibilities.

But, that's all.

Even though the possibility of successful fusion increases, it is still a drop in the ocean compared to the vast number of orders.

Trying to find a successful path among so many possibilities is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.

Thinking of this, Wang Ba couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart:
"Master Chao is truly a genius to have been able to fuse such a ferocious beast..."

If you are not a genius, how can you find the path to success among so many people?
"But if we merge them one by one until we have accumulated a thousand, this method will definitely take a long time. Is there any other way to skip this step?"

In his mind, he thought bit by bit about what he had seen, heard, learned and used since he came into contact with the art of taming beasts. It seemed that he had gained something, but it also seemed like it was just an illusion, as if there was a layer of window paper between them, making it hazy.

In desperation and unwilling to waste time, he immediately began to study the bloodline of the first ferocious beast.

"According to the Silkworm Dragon Realm, blood is actually the manifestation of rules in living things. Not only spirit beasts, but humans also have blood. However, human blood is not like that of other spirit beasts. Once it is stimulated, the realm can be broken through. The manifestation of human blood is that it can be transformed continuously through practice. Compared with ordinary spirit beasts, it has more possibilities... This is also the reason why the innate gods and demons must enter the realm to reincarnate."

Wang Ba made a light move, and a tiger-like beast with an aura comparable to that of a cultivator in the early stage of tribulation landed directly in front of him.

In his eyes, the blood glow was flowing above the head of this ferocious beast. It was clearly a huge tiger, full of ferociousness and filled with an ancient flavor.

It is not easy for spiritual beasts to break through, especially if they rely solely on themselves. The reason why many spiritual beasts can grow to a high level, in addition to the environment, is often because human cultivators use wisdom, spiritual objects and many skills to help the spiritual beasts achieve a breakthrough.

Without the help of cultivators, the level at which most spirit beasts are born will not change much throughout their lives.

Except for a very small number of spiritual beasts who are born with intelligence and have learned some breathing techniques on their own, and have embarked on a path similar to that of human cultivators, they are often restricted by their bloodlines and unable to break through their own limits.

There are very few outliers like King Wu of the Ape.

"Since blood is the manifestation of rules in living beings, then studying blood is actually studying rules, and vice versa..."

Wang Ba looked at the ferocious beast in front of him. The blood glow revealed on its head seemed to be silently decomposing bit by bit in his eyes at this moment. The black and white silk threads intertwined, and they were indeed things he was familiar with.

rule!

This is the foundation of the entire Third Realm Sea.

It runs through the most basic structure of everything in the sea of ​​​​boundaries.

"Brute force, flesh, devouring..."

Wang Ba carefully felt the rules decomposed from the blood radiance and read a lot of things.

The rules contained in things do not exist independently. At least in the blood of this ferocious beast, he saw various kinds of rules, such as flesh and blood, strength, tiger beast, wind... Hundreds of rules mixed together to form the blood of this ferocious beast.

Judging from the experience of taming beasts in the past, it can be described as a "tiger beast", "good at wind magic and physical body", "recovering the physical body through devouring", "reproductively isolated from most tiger beasts", "its organs are quite special, and after being stimulated, they will have hardened barbs, which are indestructible and only its own kind can withstand", "possessing innate magical powers"...

This is just the first step. There are more details, such as the bloodline reasons why this kind of beast cannot give birth to offspring with other tiger beasts, the manifestation of its proficiency in wind magic and physical body in its bloodline, etc.

Generally speaking, it would take a lot of time for a Beast Tamer to figure these out.

Even though Wang Ba was considered an expert in taming beasts, it would still take him more than ten years to make a thorough analysis.

But now, under the guidance of Chao Tianjun, his attainments in the knowledge system of the bloodlines of ferocious beasts have enabled him to understand most of it with just a rough glance.

In addition, his inclusive style and high level of understanding of the rules made it possible for him to see the beast in front of him very clearly after just a month of scanning. "This is also the benefit of a high realm."

With a high realm, an understanding of the rules, and the most complete beast taming system as a backing, he is naturally not comparable to what he had before.

Wang Ba released the ferocious beast, knowing the situation of its bloodline clearly.

He then grabbed the second one.

After looking at it for a while, he changed it again.

Of course, he also encountered many ferocious beasts with extremely special rules, which took him a long time to comprehend.

However, this has improved and perfected his understanding of the rules.

Even in this situation, in just less than a hundred years, he had already mastered all the bloodlines of the thousand ferocious beasts in this space.

"Next, it's the most troublesome thing."

Wang Ba recalled the ferocious beast with ten thousand heads belonging to Chao Tianjun.

"First, find the bearer of all beasts...it should be this kind of ferocious beast."

His eyes swept through the group of ferocious beasts and finally fell on one of the mythical beasts, the 'Suanni' (pronounced 'suanni').

Suanni, shaped like a lion, is a congenital divine beast, the leader of all beasts, and is obeyed by all birds and beasts. As the bearer of the bloodline of all beasts, it is indeed the most suitable one.

However, when Wang Ba glanced around, his eyes fell on an extremely handsome bird-like beast that looked very similar to "Fan Ming".

Its body is huge and beast-like, with thick and ferocious legs and limbs, resembling both a bird and a beast.

Fan Ming, who is similar to Kunpeng, is somewhat similar in spirit.

After thinking about it, he shook his head and looked away.

Although this bird-like beast is somewhat similar to Fan Ming, it is not it after all. Its bloodline is obviously much inferior to Fan Ming, and it is not suitable to be a carrier beast.

After thinking it over, his gaze finally fell on the Suanni.

He glanced around and frowned slightly:
"In addition to the Suanni, there are other lion-like beasts. If they can be integrated into one like the Ghostly Stone Dragon Lizard, then..."

His expression suddenly froze!

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind like lightning!
The vague thoughts from before finally became clear at this moment and jumped out!

"All the bloodlines have been fused into one spirit beast. Isn't this the Ghost Pattern Stone Dragon Lizard?!"

"However, the Ten Thousand Beasts Without Reins combined the advantages of the fierce beasts to magnify their strengths, while the Ghost Pattern Stone Dragon Lizard only fused its bloodlines together. The final result was an ordinary second-level spirit beast."

"Could it be that this Ghost Pattern Stone Dragon Lizard is actually the product of an experiment by a senior from the Silkworm Dragon Realm?"

"If that's really the case..."

He was shocked. If the Ghost-Patterned Stone Dragon Lizard was really a product of the Silkworm Dragon Realm, then how could the Ghost-Patterned Stone Dragon Lizard cross such a long distance, cross the Immortal Pass, and come to the Xiaocang Realm?
He didn't dare to think about it too much, and quickly withdrew his thoughts, but kept this discovery firmly in his heart.

Looking at the ferocious beasts in front of him, there was a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

He has thought of a solution that might work.

"The Ghostly Stone Dragon Lizard is a hybrid of various stone dragon lizards. So, can we follow this line of thought?"

Without hesitation, he immediately began to classify the thousand kinds of ferocious beasts in front of him according to the categories of 'snakes, scales, fur, feathers, and insects'.

It is further subdivided according to different ethnic groups.

For example, the so-called "蠃" is hairless and without armor, and can be classified according to earthworms, loaches, frogs, etc.

Soon, these one thousand ferocious beasts were divided into dozens of categories.

Wang Ba also began to fuse the bloodlines of these ferocious beasts according to these classified categories.

The potential cost of merging a thousand kinds of ferocious beasts is simply unimaginable.

On the other hand, if you merge ten to twenty types each time, the difficulty can be said to plummet.

On the premise of ensuring enhanced fusion, he quickly completed the fusion of the bloodlines of similar animals such as 'lions, tigers, leopards, and cats' represented by the sacred beast Suanni.

A few years later, a nine-headed lion-like beast appeared before him.

Compared with before, the aura of this nine-headed beast is obviously stronger than that of a single Suanni, and it is already very close to the middle stage of tribulation.

For some reason, it did not develop into a situation where the Ghost-Patterned Stone Dragon Lizard had only one head.

However, with this good start, Wang Ba continued to work hard.

Decades later, a giant bird with seventeen heads flapped its wings and flew away, its aura comparable to that of a bird in the middle stage of tribulation!
Then, toads with more than a dozen heads, snakes with dozens of heads, mantises with several heads... they appeared every few decades to a hundred years.

But Wang Ba was completely immersed in it and forgot about time.

Three thousand years later, there were only thirty or so ferocious beasts with many heads left in front of him.

He studied these ferocious beasts that had been fused once again, and tried to exchange their order and continue the fusion on the premise of enhancing the benefits.

Afterwards, every few years to several decades, the number of ferocious beasts in front of him would decrease by one.

However, the aura of the surviving ferocious beasts became increasingly powerful.

Another thousand years, another two thousand years...

In a blink of an eye, Wang Ba has been staying in this space for eight thousand years.

The aura of the remaining beasts also gradually improved from the early stage of the tribulation to the middle stage, late stage, and complete stage of the tribulation...

Finally, surpass the perfection of tribulation!

Wang Ba looked at the little lion in front of him, which had tens of thousands of heads but lay in front of him docilely. It looked like a little raccoon and was a little dazed for a moment.
"I, I succeeded?"

A different path from Chao Tianjun's!
He couldn't help but reach out and touch the little lion.

In his sight, above the little lion's head, there were densely packed black and white threads that were extremely complex, even more amazing than a realm!

After the fusion, it was even far beyond his understanding.

The next moment, in his stunned eyes.

The little lion silently transformed into the shadow of an emerald jade staff, hanging quietly in front of Wang Ba.

"This is... the Silkworm Dragon Staff?!"

Wang Ba looked at the shadow of the jade staff in front of him in surprise, and then something in his mind moved and he realized:

"Does this mean that I have passed Master Chao's test?"

Surprised and delighted, he immediately reached out and gently grasped the phantom of the Silkworm Dragon Staff.

The moment he grasped it, the space around him quickly collapsed like a bubble that had been popped.

He just felt a slight flicker before his eyes.

The next moment, he looked around in astonishment. The vast dark void was dotted with star-like light from the realm in the distance.

Peace and silence.

"This is... the Sea of ​​Boundary?!"

"I am no longer in the Silkworm Dragon Realm?"

With a thought, he found that the Taoist treasure in his soul, the spirit beast in his sleeves, and those cultivators were still there and had not been touched by anyone.

However, there were not many waves. During the eight thousand years of studying 'Ten Thousand Beasts Unbridled', he had long been accustomed to not having any external objects. Therefore, he could calmly face the 'loss and recovery' of the Taoist treasures and spiritual beasts.

The only thing that made him feel a little strange was that even after eight thousand years, the monks and spirit beasts hiding in his sleeves were almost the same as before he was trapped.

Just as he was confused, at this moment, he suddenly felt something. He subconsciously lowered his head to look at his hands, and then suddenly froze in place.

In the palm of his hand, a jade staff of emerald green was gleaming with light, like a dream in the dark sea of ​​boundaries. (End of this chapter)
