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

Zhou Heng declined again: "Master, this is one of the important foundations left by the Supreme Lord of Dinghai to the Xuanwu Ling family. Although I am your disciple, I am not a member of the Xuanwu Ling family. If I were to contract this mythical quality Fortune Qilin King, I'm afraid your clansmen would be dissatisfied."

Emperor Xuanchen had anticipated Zhou Heng's reaction, so he prepared a pre-arranged explanation: "Although you are not surnamed Ling, nor are you a member of the Xuanwu Ling family, your grandmother was, and you also carry the blood of the Xuanwu Ling family. In a sense, you are not only a descendant of your master, but also a descendant of Ancestor Dinghai. Although Ancestor Dinghai has been deceased for thousands of years, his spiritual power has merged with the Eternal Order Sacred Realm, transforming into the will of the Sacred Realm. As a descendant of Ancestor Dinghai, he has no objection to you contracting this mythical-quality beast cub. As for the rest of the clansmen, I believe they will all be very understanding. If anyone is unreasonable, then they are not a member of my Xuanwu Ling family."

Zhou Heng pondered for a moment, "Since Master has said so, I'll shamelessly accept Master's gift."

Emperor Xuanchen quipped, "Just accept it without hesitation! Don't be so coy. The Qingyang Society already gave you two superior-level overlord-quality beast cubs. Do you really think your master is less important than an outsider from the Qingyang Society?"

Zhou Heng had his own principles: "This is different. Qingyang will need my help. But since I became a disciple of Master, I have not only failed to bring him any benefits, but I have also always made him spend money out of his own pocket for me. I am really embarrassed."

Emperor Xuanchen beckoned Zhou Heng closer.

Zhou Heng immediately flew to Emperor Xuanchen's side.

Emperor Xuanchen's expression was kind, and his tone gentle: "Heng'er, you are different from ordinary scions of noble families. You are too humble and polite, gentle and refined, so I understand your intentions. But you don't need to think so much. You just need to remember that you are my disciple, and sooner or later you will inherit my mantle. Everything I possess will be yours. My children have all passed away, and of my five disciples, only you and your fourth senior brother remain. At my level, material possessions have long since lost their meaning. As long as you live up to my expectations and grow to the point of ruling the universe in the future, I will be content."

Zhou Heng was deeply moved: "I will always remember Master's kindness to me, and I will definitely repay Master in the future."

Emperor Xuanchen laughed heartily: "What's this talk of repaying or not? Such words only create distance. It's just a low-level mythical-quality beast; to me, it's nothing at all. As long as you like it, once I advance to the tenth-tier supreme beast tamer, I will definitely find a way to find you a beast cub of even higher quality."

Zhou Heng hurriedly said, "Master, including the beast cub you just gave me, I already have six beast cubs, which is more than enough. Please don't look for any more beast cubs for me."

Emperor Xuanchen looked at Zhou Heng's sincere face, and the more he looked, the happier he became: "I understand what you want to say. You want to say that your talent is not suitable for contracting too many beasts. But mythical quality beasts are different. Mythical quality beasts do not consume much spiritual energy and can grow up quickly."

Zhou Heng looked at him with deep respect: "Master is right. If I encounter other mythical beasts in the future, I will definitely try to form a contract with them. But mythical quality beast cubs are rare and hard to come by. Whether I can encounter one in the future depends entirely on fate. Please don't deliberately search for them for me."

"Don't think that far ahead yet. First, form a contract with this Lucky Qilin King in front of you." Emperor Xuanchen's eyes shone with brilliant golden light as he swept his gaze over the red crystal that sealed the Lucky Qilin King cub.

In an instant, the red crystal began to melt and disintegrate, turning into a pile of invisible red powder, revealing the Lucky Qilin King cub curled up inside.

As a mythical-quality beast, the Fortune Qilin King in its cub stage has already reached the third tier, tenth level.

Its entire body was crimson, and immediately after the sealing substance disappeared, it opened its golden-red eyes.

The Lucky Qilin King stretched out its body, which was about 100 meters in size, with its four hooves stepping on the void, and faint golden-red flames burning.

This flame is no ordinary flame, but a special flame imbued with destiny.

Zhou Heng looked at the Lucky Qilin King and, for some reason, felt that the Lucky Qilin King was particularly pleasing to the eye and gave people a strange sense of intimacy.

Emperor Xuanchen said to Zhou Heng beside him, "Heng'er, you should have felt it, right? The Fortune Qilin King is an auspicious divine beast, with an auspicious aura all around it. Except for some special evil creatures, most creatures will feel joy when they see it. Moreover, the Fortune Qilin King can also bring good luck to the creatures around it, which is very miraculous."

Zhou Heng truthfully replied, "I can feel it. As expected of a mythical-quality beast, it is indeed so special."

Emperor Xuanchen said with a hint of regret, "Unfortunately, the Fortune Qilin King does not have a subsequent evolution path. If you want to evolve the Fortune Qilin King, you can only use your second talent."

Zhou Heng understood the importance of contentment: "No matter how much a beast evolves, the potential of most beast tamers is unlikely to reach mythical quality. Beast tamers born with mythical quality are incredibly precious, and even if they don't have a further evolutionary path, it's not a big deal. Moreover, as Master said, my second talent can help beast tamers evolve out of thin air, so I don't need to worry about the future evolution of the Fortune Qilin King."

Emperor Xuanchen placed high hopes on Zhou Heng: "This is also an important reason why I gave the Fortune Qilin King to you. Although the Fortune Qilin King could have another eighth-level monarch beast tamer if it were in someone else's hands, it can only shine with greater brilliance if it is in your hands."

Zhou Heng said solemnly, "Please rest assured, Master, the Fortune Qilin King is a gift from you, and I will certainly not mistreat it."

Looking at the two, master and disciple, who shared a deep bond, the Fortune Qilin King asked, "Are you descendants of the Supreme Lord of the Sea?"

As a mythical beast, it can speak human language from birth.

Emperor Xuanchen directly admitted, "That's right."

The voice of the Fortune Qilin King was devoid of any emotion: "When the Supreme Lord of the Sea sealed me, he told me that one day his descendants would form a contract with me. Today you have broken the seal for me, it seems that the time has come to form a contract with me."

The Supreme Ruler of Dinghai may not have anticipated Zhou Heng's appearance, but he left the Blessed Qilin King in the Xuanwu Ling family instead of giving it away, specifically for the descendants of the Xuanwu Ling family. It's just that Zhou Heng benefited from it now.

Although Zhou Heng's surname is not Ling, he also has the bloodline of the Supreme Lord of Dinghai and is a descendant of the Supreme Lord of Dinghai.

In general, everything leads to the same conclusion.
