Chapter 11

The crane has a tall posture, slender legs, and is covered with snow-white feathers. There is a red spot on the top of its head like the rising sun in the morning, making it look very noble.

It grabbed the red flying leaf, angry and down. This crane... Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Rat were very familiar with the accent.

It seemed to be the immortal crane that delivered resources for them when they just arrived at the Outer Sect, not the immortal crane sister who sent them down from the Inner Peak.

Calling it an immortal crane is somewhat inaccurate. Through reading books, Lin Jing already knew their race name.

Heavenly Feather Crane, a wind-attribute spirit beast, has an extraordinary status in the Beast-Taming Sect.

Because the Sect Master... contracted a Heavenly Feather Crane!

"Zhi..." Seeing that it had smashed a crane by throwing tree leaves randomly, the Pine Leaf Rat was incredibly nervous.

"Senior..." Lin Jing also showed an apologetic expression and said: "I am very sorry, we were practicing spells."

"Annoying, it's not safe in the sect now, pay attention next time!" The Heavenly Feather Crane threw away the tree leaf, looked left and right, and said: "It seems to be here, Outer Disciple Lin Jing, you have a letter, from Elder Mo Wuya of Lotus Peak!"

After speaking, it threw down a letter and flew into the clouds again, in a great hurry, seeming very afraid that the next order would be overtime.

Seeing this, Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Rat breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately after, Lin Jing curiously opened the letter.

"Zhi?"

After Lin Jing finished reading the letter, he pondered: "Elder Mo said that the small Yinshi Sect stronghold that kidnapped me has already reported the intelligence of my Longevity Body, but they didn't have time to transfer me. He told me not to leave the Beast-Taming Sect if there is nothing to do, and not to take on sect missions that require leaving the sect."

"As long as we are in the sect, we can be safe and sound."

"As for him, he is no longer in the sect... but has gone to the Demon-Slaying Division to understand the specific situation, to see if he can pull up that higher-level Mo Sect stronghold together!"

"Zhi!" The Pine Leaf Rat looked at Lin Jing with sympathy.

Lin Jing shook his head and said: "Bad luck. Just succeeded in Qi Condensation, and was targeted by the Mo Sect."

"Don't look at me with that kind of look. Precious Beasts are even rarer than special cultivation constitutions!"

"If we are caught, maybe we can even be on the same dining table."

Lin Jing, who is now no longer a cultivation novice, has more understanding of the Mo Sect.

The three great Mo Sects of the cultivation world, Yinshi Sect, Gushen Sect, and Youming Hall, are all terrifying.

Among them, the Yinshi Sect refines corpse puppets, extracts Dao foundations, traffics immortal seedlings, and possesses geniuses. It is a thorn in the side of major sects and cultivation families. Who doesn't have a genius with a special constitution in their family?

Where there is buying and selling, there is persecution. Although the failure probability of possession and restarting cultivation is very high, there are still many high-level cultivators who are seriously injured or have reached their lifespan limit and refuse to accept their fate. The Yinshi Sect acts as such a middleman.

And the Gushen Sect refines and raises Gu, and will parasitize Gu insects on a large number of mortals, ordinary cultivators, and even cultivators with special constitutions, using the human body as nutrients to strengthen the Gu insects and let the Gu insects evolve!

As for the Youming Hall, it is mainly based on ghost cultivation, raising some ghosts, and detaining spirits and sending souls.

Fortunately, under the crackdown of the Tianyuan Ancient Kingdom Demon-Slaying Division and the sects of various domains, the three great Mo Sects are all like street rats, unable to see the light.

Lin Jing sighed. It was also fortunate that his Longevity Body, although rare, was not particularly precious. Even if it was coveted, it should not be the highest priority.

"When Elder Mo returns, we will tell him about you mutating into a Precious Beast." Lin Jing said: "Since I, as a special constitution, can obtain Inner Sect-level resources, then you are now also considered a 'special constitution'. Perhaps our resource treatment can still rise."

A disciple who just entered the sect can have such good treatment. The Pine Leaf Rat was born in the Beast-Taming Sect and grew up under the cultivation of the Beast-Taming Sect since childhood. Its parents are also in the Beast-Taming Sect, and its connection with the Beast-Taming Sect is deeper than his. Lin Jing believes that the sect will definitely not be stingy with resources used for the Pine Leaf Rat's cultivation.

"Zhi zhi zhi!!" The Pine Leaf Rat nodded, and then looked at the spirit bean seedlings on the side.

It was very curious... what these will synthesize after planting 100 grains and then being transformed by the Glazed Immortal Pupil.

"Stop for now..." Lin Jing stopped it and said: "We have no surplus food now. It was not easy to plant some spirit rice, and it was all eaten by you."

"Now we should find something to eat, otherwise... let alone the consumption of synthesizing new resources, you might starve to death in the process of ripening spirit beans."

"Alas, let's go down the mountain to see if there is any cheap beast meat for sale, or go hunting for game in the mountains to fill our stomachs." Lin Jing sighed.

Among the dozens of mountain peaks of the Beast-Taming Sect, there are a few that specifically raise some ferocious beasts and man-eating demon beasts, which are kept in captivity for Outer and Inner Sect disciples to use for training.

Lin Jing planned to take the Pine Leaf Rat to that kind of mountain forest that Outer Sect disciples can enter, catch a few wild rabbits, and fish a few fish back.

If it were before, he definitely wouldn't take the risk, but now, with the Pine Leaf Rat mastering the red flying leaf that is like controlling objects and cuts iron like mud, ordinary mountain forest ferocious beasts and low-level demon beasts can no longer pose a threat to them.

After resting, Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Rat took the red flying leaf, left the courtyard, and according to the map, began to head toward "Tiger Peak".

There are man-eating tigers in that peak, but only a few possess the "first layer of Qi Condensation" demon power, and the Beast-Taming Sect only allows disciples at the "first layer of Qi Condensation" to enter with pet beasts, used for cultivating courage.

This kind of disciple has often just stepped into the gate of cultivation, and their mindset has not yet transformed from a mortal. Let alone facing demon beasts, even facing the roar of ordinary mountain forest tigers, they might not be able to stand firm.

And with the protection of pet beasts at least at the third layer of Qi Condensation, this kind of disciple entering this peak generally won't have any accidents, which is very suitable for tempering the state of mind.

The most important thing is that the hunting gains inside all belong to the disciple.

Before long, Lin Jing and they arrived at the foot of Tiger Peak. At the entrance of the peak, an old man in hemp clothes stood there. Seeing Lin Jing, he hooked his finger.

"Outer Disciple? Want to enter Tiger Peak?" Lin Jing walked closer, and he sized up Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Rat.

"Reporting to Senior, yes." Lin Jing didn't recognize this old man, but guessed he should be the peak guard. Like Tiger Peak, such mountain peaks have special people in charge.

"Cannot enter now. A spirit plant was accidentally born in the mountain, and it was eaten by a tiger. Now that tiger has developed intelligence and possesses very strong demon power. If you enter now, there is a certain risk." The old man waved his hand and said: "Come back another day."

"Senior, what is the cultivation of that tiger demon?" Lin Jing asked: "Perhaps we can..."

"Ninth layer of Qi Condensation."

"Senior, sorry to disturb." Lin Jing cupped his hands, turned around, and planned to take the Pine Leaf Rat away.

What kind of world is this? He painstakingly cultivated, and it took so long to reach the first layer of Qi Condensation.

A tiger ate a spirit plant and reached the ninth layer of Qi Condensation?

Opportunity... is really more important than effort.

Not only Lin Jing was worried, but the Pine Leaf Rat on his shoulder was also indignant.

Just as Lin Jing was leaving, a familiar figure walked over.

"Junior Brother Lin?" The white-shirted youth opened his mouth unexpectedly.

"Senior Brother Ouyang, why are you here."

"I took on the sect mission of subduing the 'Tiger Peak Tiger Demon'." Ouyang Hao said.

Lin Jing, Pine Leaf Rat: "..."

Undercover agent, Scripture Pavilion manager, subduing the tiger demon, Brother Furnace is really a busy person. Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Rat cupped their hands, very impressed, and admitted defeat.

It's really good for the sect to have you. The next Sect Master will definitely be you, no one will grab it.
