Genius Beast Taming: Starting from Awakening an S-Rank Talent

After having dinner with his parents, Zhou Heng brought up the red phoenix feather that Ji Chao had given him: "Dad, could you help Jiuxiao build a nest in the backyard?"

Zhou's father said directly, "We built a nest for it a long time ago, right next to Jun Ye."

Zhou Heng smiled broadly: "Thank you, Dad."

Then, Zhou Heng arrived at the manor's back garden, where he discovered that on the other side of the giant tree where the Night Peacock perched, there had indeed been a silver bird's nest with a diameter of three hundred meters.

This was prepared by Zhou's father for Fengyi and Qingluan.

Zhou Heng immediately summoned the Phoenix and Azure Luan from his beast-taming space, and then took out the feathers of a pure-blooded phoenix: "Jiuxiao, Dad made you a nest, do you like it?"

"唳~~"

The phoenix and the blue luan gazed at the silver nest and let out a joyful cry.

Zhou Heng added, "If you like it, then quickly put this phoenix feather in your nest."

"唳~唳~"

The phoenix cried out twice, then took flight, landing in the silver nest with the two-hundred-meter-long phoenix feather it had been carrying.

It placed phoenix feathers underneath, then lay down on top of them. As the aura of the phoenix bloodline emanated, mixed with a trace of the power of the Five Virtues and the pure blood phoenix feathers, an invisible energy gathered into a phantom of a thirty-six-meter-tall crimson phoenix, which remained solid and did not dissipate.

Fengyi Qingluan closed its eyes tightly, and after a short while, a phantom of a red phoenix, the same size as itself, entered its body.

Zhou Heng scanned the Phoenix Azure Luan with his spiritual power and discovered that several more tender, colorful feathers had sprouted from the base of its wings.

"Screech~~"

Not long after, the Phoenix Azure Luan opened its eyes and looked at Zhou Heng, who had been guarding under the tree. It quickly flew down from its nest and made a friendly call.

Zhou Heng suddenly realized: "I thought you just thought the phoenix feather was pretty, but I didn't expect that this phoenix feather actually contains a trace of phoenix spirit. You are really smart."

"唳~唳~唳~~"

Phoenix and Azure Phoenix shrunk their bodies to about one meter in size and leaped into Zhou Heng's arms.

Zhou Heng held Fengyi Qingluan and gently combed its feathers: "You mean that the feathers that naturally fall from a phoenix all possess the spirit of the phoenix? But without the power of the Five Virtues, they cannot be activated?"

"唳~~"

Feng Yi Qingluan nodded, then nuzzled Zhou Heng's chin with her head to express her gratitude.

"I hope this phoenix feather can help you."

Zhou Heng was very happy: "Try this, it's the Luanxue Lychee that Li Lang prepared for you."

"唳~~"

Fengyi Qingluan swallowed the green lychee, shell and all, in one gulp, but there was no noticeable change.

Zhou Heng carefully examined the beast-taming contract and only sensed that the aura emanating from Feng Yi Qing Luan had increased slightly.

For ordinary birds and beasts, and even for phoenixes with thin bloodlines, the bloodline of the phoenix lychee is a rare treasure. Absorbing it can further enhance their bloodline.

However, the bloodline of the Phoenix Azure Phoenix is ​​now second only to those pure-blooded phoenixes of hegemon quality, and has already surpassed the scope of ordinary high-level diamonds, which can be said to have one foot in the lower-level hegemon quality.

Once Fengyi Qingluan breaks through to the fourth rank, Zhou Heng will initiate an evolution ritual for it, making it a true overlord beast.

Therefore, the blood-enhancing ability of the Luan Blood Lychee has no effect on the Phoenix and Azure Luan.

However, the Phoenix Lychee is a fourth-grade low-level spiritual fruit, which happens to be of the same origin as the Phoenix Azure Phoenix, making it easy for the Phoenix Azure Phoenix to absorb.

After that, Zhou Heng summoned the Overturning Sea Silver Dragon and the Eternal Night Demon Dragon.

Zhou Heng first fed the Yin-Yang Purple Lotus and the Ice Crystal Peony to the Overturning Sea Silver Dragon, and then took out the Dew Nourishing Essence Liquid and a fourth-grade low-grade dark attribute crystal core to feed the Eternal Night Demon Dragon.

After interacting with the two for a while, Zhou Heng took them and Fengyi Qingluan to the training hall in the manor for some daily training.

They trained until late at night.

Zhou Heng sent Fengyi Qingluan to rest in the back garden, returned the Overturning Sea Silver Dragon to the Ring of All Rivers and Seas, and put the Eternal Night Demon Dragon back into the Beast Taming Space. He then returned to his bedroom.

……

The next day, Zhou Heng got up very early.

This day happens to be January 1st of the new year in the Gregorian calendar, the official New Year's Day.

The year 8528 AD has become history, and the year 8529 AD has made its dazzling debut.

Zhou Heng was born in 8510 AD.

If we do a rough calculation, he is now nineteen years old.

However, to be precise, he hasn't turned nineteen yet; he's still a few months away from turning nineteen.

After washing up with the help of the maid, Zhou Heng went downstairs.

A delicious breakfast had already been laid out in the restaurant, and Zhou's parents were sitting by the table waiting for him.

Zhou Heng stepped forward and said, "Happy New Year, Mom and Dad!"

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou said together, "Son, Happy New Year!"

Then, Zhou's father took out a black box with gold trim: "My dear son, today is New Year's Day, this is a gift for you."

"Thank you, Dad." Zhou Heng took the book and saw that it was three gold books, slightly larger than the palm of his hand.

The three golden books appear small and thin, but in reality, the number of pages inside is almost infinite, because a blacksmith used forging techniques to refine these three books into three magical artifacts.

The first book is titled "Complete Guide to Training Masters," the second book is titled "Complete Guide to Pharmacists," and the third book is titled "Complete Guide to Blacksmiths."

The above details the situation of breeders, pharmacists, and blacksmiths, as well as tens of thousands of potion recipes and forging techniques below the sixth rank, plus many evolution paths that do not involve the quality of overlords.

In short, the relevant knowledge is very detailed, without the slightest reservation.

It is no exaggeration to say that if an ordinary beast tamer obtained these three books, they would be able to pass them down as family heirlooms to their descendants.

Zhou's father looked at him with expectation: "My good son, this is a set of books that my professor gave me when I was in college. They are very valuable. You have a good talent for beast taming, and you may also have outstanding talents in other areas. You can take a look at these three books when you have time. It won't hurt you. Even if you are not interested in these, you can keep them and pass them on to your descendants in the future. This way, they can be passed down from generation to generation."

"Okay, Dad, I understand."

Zhou Heng put away his father's gift, then looked at his mother and asked in a coquettish tone, "Dear Mom, where's the gift you prepared for me?"

Zhou's mother took out a white jade box: "My dear son, this is for you."

When Zhou Heng opened the white jade box, he found three bottles of medicine inside, each contained in a transparent crystal.

However, he did not know the purpose of these three potions, because it was the first time he had seen them, and he had never seen them in books or online before.
