Chapter 12: The Legend of the Red Fox

~7 min read 1,382 words

"Junior Brother, are you thinking of entering Tiger Mountain to practice?" Senior Brother Ouyang asked.

"I have this idea, but now because of that tiger demon, I can only change to another mountain peak." Lin Jing was helpless.

Walking also consumes a lot of physical strength.

I have to ask another day, what status is needed to ride a crane.

At this time, Lin Jing realized the benefit of choosing a Horned Ox as a pet beast. Along the way, he saw many disciples riding oxen to travel.

As for his side, it was the pet beast riding him, too much!

Hearing this, Senior Brother Ouyang looked at the peak-keeping old man.

"Old man, I’m here to subdue the tiger demon."

The peak-keeping old man glanced at Ouyang Hao and said: "I know, go in."

Senior Brother Ouyang smiled and looked at Lin Jing again: "Junior Brother, do you want to follow me in? After I subdue the tiger demon, you can practice normally."

"Is it okay?" Lin Jing was surprised.

"Of course it’s no problem. With me here, there will be no accidents." Senior Brother Ouyang looked at the peak-keeping old man again and asked: "Old man, I will bring this Junior Brother in together."

"Go, go." The peak-keeping old man seemed to know Senior Brother Ouyang’s strength and said nonchalantly: "You go, I will continue to write my self-reflection."

He looked irritable.

"Senior Brother Ouyang, what is the situation with the self-reflection that the peak-keeping Senior mentioned."

Tiger Peak, after Senior Brother Ouyang brought Lin Jing in, Lin Jing asked.

"Tiger Peak accidentally conceived a spirit plant, and he didn't discover it in the first place, but let a wild demonic beast eat it. He must need to write a self-reflection letter to repent and be punished."

"He must hate that tiger demon to death now. But unfortunately, facing this kind of demonic beast, he cannot deal with it directly. In the case that the demonic beast has not hurt anyone, the first thing the sect considers is to subdue it, not to kill it."

"And subduing demonic beasts is a technical job. As long as the situation is not particularly serious, it will be handed over to disciples with potential in the sect to try and train."

"After all, subduing such 'wild demonic beasts' is also a basic skill that Beast Taming Sect disciples need to master."

"As a disciple, perhaps choosing a spirit beast or demonic beast already cultivated by the sect is enough, but if you want to go further, you still need to find those powerful creatures in the vast cultivation world yourself and subdue them!"

"The reason I wanted to bring you in is that I want you to see how I subdue a wild demonic beast and make it willingly submit." Senior Brother Ouyang said with concern.

"So that’s how it is." Lin Jing was surprised: "I thought Senior Brother, you came for the tiger whip."

Ouyang Hao: "...If this tiger demon doesn't submit to education, then I can only accept it with a smile."

Lin Jing and Ouyang walked into the mountain forest. Along the way, birds and insects chirped, and it was quiet. They were still some distance away from the tiger demon.

At this moment, Lin Jing suddenly remembered that he still had an unsolved doubt!

Elder Mo claimed that after Senior Brother Ouyang became a True Transmission Disciple, he might become the Sect Master’s disciple!

The reason was never mentioned, very implicit, Lin Jing was curious.

He forgot to ask last time in the Scripture Pavilion, this time he planned to seize the opportunity to ask the person himself.

"Senior Brother, I heard that the Sect Master intends to take you as a disciple?"

"You know this? Has it spread to the Outer Sect!" Senior Brother Ouyang turned his head in surprise.

"That’s not it, it was Elder Mo who said it." Lin Jing coughed dryly.

"Senior Brother, teach me! How did you do it."

Only by becoming a True Transmission Disciple can one learn the sect’s true inheritance secret techniques, and only then can one be considered a core member of the Beast Taming Sect.

And to become a True Transmission, there is a condition, which is to take a teacher who is at least at the Core Formation cultivation level in the sect.

Taking a teacher, like marriage, is no less than a second reincarnation. Having a good master will make the cultivation path easier.

Senior Brother Ouyang being able to get on the Sect Master’s line is not to be underestimated.

"This..." Senior Brother Ouyang looked at Lin Jing strangely, shook his head violently, and said: "Junior Brother, my situation might not be suitable for you."

"How do you say?" "Zhi zhi zhi?"

Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Mouse got to the bottom of it.

Senior Brother Ouyang sighed, stopped, pondered for a moment, and finally said sadly: "Forget it, it’s not a secret, I’ll tell you. Remember not to spread it."

"I remember you took books about the history of the Beast Taming Sect from the Scripture Pavilion, right?"

"Our Beast Taming Sect, the first Sect Master was a mortal. This constitution was originally not destined for the immortal path, but he had a strange encounter and obtained the Beast Taming Technique from the Immortal Palace."

"The Immortal Palace’s Beast Taming Technique mainly focuses on enslaving beasts. A cultivator can decide the life and death of the contracted pet beast with one thought... He relied on this technique to enslave countless powerful demonic beasts, and his own cultivation reached Soul Transformation. The Beast Taming Sect was once extremely prosperous."

"Unfortunately, forcibly enslaving pet beasts has its drawbacks, and in the end, he died because of the backlash of the pet beasts."

"With the lessons learned, the second Sect Master began to think about what the true relationship between Beast Taming cultivators and pet beasts should be. In the end, he concluded that the relationship between Beast Taming cultivators and pet beasts, besides master and servant, should also be Dao friends, brothers, and sisters."

"So, he began to carry out reforms within the sect, advocating that disciples should cultivate with young beasts from the Qi Refining stage to enhance the feelings of both sides, rather than forcibly enslaving those wild demonic beasts. Even if you want to subdue wild demonic beasts, you must make them truly recognize and follow you, and you cannot force them."

"The second Sect Master laid a good foundation for the Beast Taming Sect, and since then, this sect rule has been passed down to this day. Originally, this was perfect, but until now... the fifth Sect Master, the current Sect Master, has sublimated the relationship with pet beasts emotionally."

"He, formed a Daoist couple with the pet beast, becoming a family in the true sense."

Lin Jing: "..."

It was not recorded in the book.

"Which one?" Lin Jing and even the Pine Leaf Mouse were deeply shocked.

"The one from the Heavenly Feather Crane group... although it has not been made public among the disciples, it can be called the Sect Master’s wife." Senior Brother Ouyang said respectfully.

At this moment, Lin Jing’s brain was still a bit chaotic.

Wait, wait!

"Then Senior Brother, you are favored by the Sect Master, could it be..." Lin Jing suddenly fell silent.

"Yes." Senior Brother Ouyang sighed and said: "Hong’er was a wounded little fox I saved when I was a mortal. Later, it was very intimate with me, so I kept it by my side."

"Until I was brought back to the Beast Taming Sect by Elder Mo and concluded a bloodline contract with Hong’er, I realized that it had developed that kind of feeling for me."

"Although it is a beast, its feelings are true. True feelings should not be let down, Junior Brother, don't you think?"

Lin Jing looked at the sky.

Solved, all the mysteries were solved.

However, considering this is a cultivation world, Lin Jing didn't dwell on the differences in species.

It was nothing more than "The Legend of the White Snake" becoming "The Legend of the Crane" and "The Legend of the Red Fox."

"Blessings to you." Lin Jing said.
