Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 144 The benefits of high talent!

"Yes."

He Ling Zhenren exclaimed: "A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind."

"Although you two are talented, you both come from humble backgrounds. Your status is far inferior to those of the children of aristocratic families. This will easily attract the jealousy and hostility of others."

"Xia Xiuxue is different. Her talent isn't as good as yours, so she won't attract too much attention. Besides, her Xia family is quite powerful, and they even have an ancestor who is about to reach the stage of Dan. Ordinary troubles won't threaten her at all."

"As for the others, there's naturally no need to say more."

Gu Yuan's face suddenly showed enlightenment and gratitude, as if he finally understood He Ling Zhenren's painstaking efforts. He bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Elder. I am sorry for your trouble!"

Niu Youde also bowed belatedly.

"Okay, no need to be polite."

Zhenren He Ling was very satisfied with Gu Yuan. Not only did he have excellent talent, but he was also smart and talented, and he could also be low-key and clumsy at critical moments.

Thinking about his previous character of preferring to break rather than bend, this was certainly good and in line with the true meaning of kendo, but it also added a lot of trouble to himself.

Gu Yuan's character allows him to go further on the path of cultivation.

"This time, I came down the mountain, not only to recruit disciples, but also to open the Red Dragon Immortal Palace. So you need to wait until I have resolved this matter before returning to the mountain with me."

He Ling Zhenren explained, then said:

"Just in case, from now on, you two will follow me."

"Yes, the disciple obeys."

Gu Yuan bowed and showed no resistance.

Gu Yuan was actually very clear that his performance today was a bit eye-catching, and he might have aroused hostility and jealousy from some people.

If he were alone, apart from currying favor and making friends, he would inevitably face all kinds of targeting and calculations.

Even though he is strong, he will definitely find it difficult to withstand it, not to mention that he has parents, which is also his weakness.

And now, being able to always be by the side of He Ling Zhenren, a great Jindan cultivator, itself represents He Ling Zhenren's attitude.

Some sinister calculations and targeting naturally disappeared, and the safety of Gu's father and mother was also guaranteed.

Anyone can tell whether it is worth it to risk offending Gu Yuan, a disciple of Yaowang Mountain with unlimited potential, and a great Jindan cultivator, to kill two mere mortals.

The only thing that was a bit troublesome was the several spiritual pets that Gu Yuan raised.

Ah Huang, Ah Wu, Da Zui and Ao Da are still in the Yunmeng Mountains, and no one has discovered them.

Xiaoqing is kept close to the body, and since it is good at hiding, it is not a big deal.

Now Gu Yuan will most likely have to stay with Master He Ling more often, so he needs to be more careful when communicating and meeting with his spirit pet in the future.

But compared to my own life and the lives of my parents, these are minor issues.

It was night time.

He Ling Zhenren brought the two of them to a training room in Yuding Tower, motioned them to sit down, looked them over for a few seconds, and then said to Gu Yuan:

"Niu Youde has not yet started his cultivation. Once he officially joins the mountain sect, he will be able to obtain a Taoist book suitable for his cultivation from the library. But you..."

"I see that you have made great progress in swordsmanship, and your cultivation is about to reach the peak of blood exchange. Your true energy is pure and pure, and you already have an extremely superior foundation. If you switch to practicing other techniques, it will inevitably lead to the deterioration of your foundation. Could it be that you have previously obtained some opportunities from the predecessors?"

Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Master He Ling could see through some of his secrets.

He was about to say something when He Ling Zhenren waved his hand and said, "No need to say more. This is about your personal opportunity. You don't need to mention it to anyone, and no one is qualified to know."

"Besides, disciples of my sect don't have so many requirements. Whether you practice the skills of your master or get a superior Taoist book from outside, it won't be a big deal." This... Gu Yuan was stunned. This was not what old man Chen said to him before.

At that time, Old Man Chen said that all new disciples must switch to practicing the sect's techniques. Otherwise, as a disciple of Yaowang Mountain, your cultivation foundation is based on other traditions. How could that be?

In this case, can I still be considered a disciple of Yaowang Mountain?
"Could it be that they see that I have great talent and are afraid that changing my cultivation method will damage my foundation?"

A guess came to Gu Yuan's mind, and he couldn't help but sigh.

This is the advantage of having high talent!

If you are talented and have great potential, others will accommodate you in everything, and even some rules will no longer be rules.

And most importantly, Master He Ling's swordsmanship and the martial arts he practiced did not seem to be mutually exclusive!
In other words, Gu Yuan can definitely practice swordsmanship as well.

In this case, Master He Ling’s attitude is very clear.

Gu Yuan is not a fool. He can already see some clues from Master He Ling's attitude towards him.

This great Jindan monk took a fancy to his talent and wanted to take him as his disciple!

"Draw your sword and let me see it."

Zhenren He Ling stretched out his hand and pointed, and the Qiu Shui sword on Gu Yuan's waist was unsheathed with a clang and fell into Gu Yuan's hand.

"I am sorry, disciple!"

Gu Yuan knew that the other party was testing his swordsmanship. In addition, the other party was a great Jindan cultivator, so even if he let him do whatever he wanted, he would not be able to hurt him.

So Gu Yuan didn't have any scruples and went all out!

With the long sword in hand, Gu Yuan stabbed out.

Zheng——

The sword light was like a flash of lightning, splitting the pitch-black night and illuminating the slightly dim room with a blanket of white!
The sharp and stunning sword light exudes an imposing cold murderous intent, which is breathtaking!

The entire room, and even this world, seemed to be stained with blood and filled with boundless murderous intent!
Niu Youde's face tightened and he couldn't help but take a few steps back, causing the dog to feel a slight sting.

My whole body felt like I was in an ice cellar and snow, so cold and biting!

And this feeling was just the aftermath of the sword that Gu Yuan had launched!

"it is good!"

Facing this sword, Master He Ling exclaimed in admiration, then stretched out a finger and tapped lightly.

His fingers were long and full, white and round, looking ordinary and without any power.

But the fingertips just happened to touch the tip of Gu Yuan's sword.

puff--

Immediately afterwards, Gu Yuan's terrifying sword light was like a deflated balloon. All its power disappeared, and the sword light shattered into pieces, turning into light spots and dissipating into the air.

Gu Yuan stared at the scene in a daze.

He clearly felt that the power of the opponent's finger did not exceed the power of his sword, and was even much smaller, but it easily destroyed the true energy, sword intent, and power of the Qiu Shui Sword.

"The sword intent and power of your sword are both quite impressive. Even an ordinary cultivator in the Heavenly Man Realm without a magical weapon to protect himself would be killed by your sword."

He Ling Zhenren commented: "With your current level of cultivation, it is already very impressive that you have been able to cultivate the sword to this level. Even I am surprised. But... this is far from enough!"
