Beast Taming: Starting from Transmigration and Starting with a Cheat Code

In the eyes of the Heavenly Sacred Deer, even though Qin Ming's strength was weak, he never looked down on this human because of the bond and tacit understanding formed during his breakthrough.

But no matter what, he never expected that Qin Ming's ordinary house would hide such an amazing secret!

If it were an ordinary spirit beast, it would be impossible to see through the hidden power of the Fire Scale.

But the Heavenly Sacred Deer was no ordinary creature. Its intense and noble aura was like the blazing sun in the dark night, making it impossible for him to ignore.

Why would this annoying... no, this noble fire-elemental supreme being condescend to live in such a small and cramped space? The holy deer wailed inwardly, its hooves even feeling weak.

He was on the verge of tears, though he belatedly realized that since the other party was here, they must have a close relationship with Qin Ming and shouldn't pose any threat.

However, the innate advantage in attributes and the clear suppression in rank still made every step he took feel like stepping on a red-hot iron, making him cautious and uneasy.

It's so tough being a deer!

He followed Qin Ming through the door, his steps uneven. The soft "click" of the door closing behind him sounded like a thunderclap to him. He instinctively glanced at the window—thankfully, it wasn't locked.

Huo Lin lazily raised his eyelids, glanced at the strangely behaving Holy Deer, but Qin Ming, who was in a low mood, was still more on his mind. "Awoo, want to have another meal?"

"Yo!!" Tianze Shenglu heard this clearly and wanted to kick up his hoof.

"Huh?" Qin Ming, lost in his own thoughts, was a beat slow to react. He scratched his head in confusion. What was going on?

In Huo Lin's mind, most of the things that make him feel bad are not having enough to eat, and the solution is also clear, but people's troubles are very diverse.

Qin Ming shook his head to clear his thoughts and patiently comforted Senior Lu, who was anxious and fearful, seemingly suffering from late-stage paranoia.

Although he was outmatched in terms of attribute advantage, level, combat ability, and experience, and was likely to be outmatched by the favor of Heaven, and had also heard that deer were naturally timid... well, Qin Ming understood.

—If this one can't be appeased, move on to the next one.

"Fire Kirin, please display the auspiciousness and friendliness of a mythical beast! We are all friends!"

Huo Lin, who hadn't paid much attention to the Holy Deer before, began to scrutinize him carefully upon hearing this.

Under the Holy Deer's instantly tense and alert gaze, Huo Lin stiffly tugged at the corners of his mouth, revealing a ferocious smile that even Qin Ming couldn't discern as sincere.

The Heavenly Deer opposite him shuddered, its eyes widened, and its fur stood on end.

Qin Ming rubbed his forehead, feeling that the atmosphere hadn't eased at all, but had become even more strange. But he had truly tried his best, so he sighed and got straight to the point.

He carefully explained the academy's arrangements and the current predicament to Huo Lin.

"...That's how it is, Huo Lin, do you have any good ideas?" Qin Ming asked expectantly.

"Hmm..." Huo Lin snorted, indignantly, "You want me to blow up the academy for you?"

The Heavenly Deer's hooves went weak at the thought, and it tried to escape through the window. This was just too lawless!

"Forget it," Huo Lin rejected the suggestion again, adding, "It doesn't seem likely. There are a few old guys inside, and their auras are troublesome; we can't blow them up."

Qin Ming's lips twitched: "Can't we do something law-abiding, honest, and friendly? Violent demolitions are unacceptable."

Behind Qin Ming, the Heavenly Deer nodded frantically with eyes full of resentment and unwavering approval, expressing its complete support for Qin Ming's words.

"That's not easy for me either," Huo Lin flicked its tail. "You don't even have a fire-attribute contracted spirit beast. Without a suitable vessel, even if I give you power, you'll have a hard time controlling and using it. You might accidentally set yourself on fire first."

Qin Ming pondered for a moment and then proposed his idea: "Then... is it possible that I could use Senior Saint Deer's pure wood-type power to construct a stable energy carrier, and then you could give me a spark as a catalyst so that I can control the detonation?"

The more he spoke, the clearer his thoughts became, listing the advantages of the plan: "This way it's controllable, and its power shouldn't be underestimated. Even... if Senior Lu's wood-type energy could take root and sprout like a seed, silently penetrating the target's interior and then igniting your flames from within..."

Qin Ming seemed to have seen a glimmer of hope for breaking the deadlock, and was feeling happy when he looked up.

"Why...why are you all looking at me like that?" Qin Ming frowned. "Is this idea difficult to implement, impossible to achieve?"

"No," Huo Lin spoke first, his eyes filled with admiration, "That's a great idea! How come I didn't think of that? The best barbecue truly needs top-quality 'wood' to bring out its ultimate flavor!"

Huo Lin has expressed his support, so what can Tian Ze Sheng Lu say?

"...You...you can give it a try."

Saint Deer's voice trembled slightly as he lamented inwardly: "It seems the deer has misjudged the person; no matter what, they are terrifying."

"So, Senior Deer..." Qin Ming and Huo Lin's gazes simultaneously focused on the Heavenly Sacred Deer.

Generally speaking, the most convenient and energy-conducting materials often come from a part of the spirit beast itself, such as shed horns, naturally fallen hair, or a small amount of blood. These are all natural, stable energy carriers that are highly compatible with the beast's body.

Although there are some top-tier spiritual materials in the world that can be used as substitutes, Qin Ming simply cannot find any that can bear the power of a Sacred Deer or a Fire Scale in a short period of time.

Under Huo Lin's "gentle" gaze, Tianze Shenglu acted rashly and blurted out, "Deer...deer, I can give you some fur...fur, fur no, absolutely not!"

Huo Lin and Qin Ming were both stunned. Skin? Are they really that skinny?

While it might have the best effect, it would be too painful and a huge sacrifice; it's really not worth going to such lengths.

Seeing the astonished expressions on the faces of the person and the beast opposite, Tianze Shenglu took a deep breath, calmed his wildly beating heart, and regained some of his rationality.

However, he still didn't want to participate in this seemingly dangerous "horrific experiment," politely declining, "Even if the plan is feasible, it would be too drastic. We don't have a safe place to conduct such an experiment, do we?"

The implication is that the conditions are not met, the difficulty is too great, so it's better to just give up.

Qin Ming and Huo Lin exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.

Saint Deer saw this but couldn't laugh; his heart skipped a beat.

As expected, Qin Ming extended a friendly invitation to Saint Deer once again, "I'll introduce you to an elder; he owns land."
