Chapter 4: First Spirit, Auspicious Beast Capybara (Part 2)

"Unyielding Spirit!?"

Before Leng Yaoju could react, Bai Bai Haoze and Bai Zhichen shouted first, their Saintess-like faces crumbling, looking as if they were about to write "Impossible" on them.

One knows one's own family best; the name Unyielding Spirit comes from the fact that most would rather risk their lives than fuse with a Soul Master, and a significant portion of them have exploded the Soul Masters who tried to fuse with them.

When Leng Yaoju went out on official business, Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen was entrusted to the Bai sisters for care; they accompanied the boy growing up and could not bear to see him charge into the tiger's mountain. The Titan Giant Ape and the Evil Eye were top-tier Spirits, enough to secure a bright future, so there was no need to risk life challenging an Unyielding Spirit.

"Beasts have unyielding souls; humans have unyielding wills."

"Since ancient times, humans have conquered Spirit Beasts," Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen said. "Big Sister Bai, Little Sister Bai, you should worry more about that Spirit."

"You, you, have had your own ideas since childhood!"

The Bai sisters sighed with regret and gave up trying to persuade further; they were among the people in the world who understood Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen best, and once a decision was made, it had to be done!

Leng Yaoju took it all in, thinking silently in her heart:

My disciple Zhao Xuanzhen has the potential of a Limit Limit Douluo!

The comfortable environment of the Spirit Pagoda did not extinguish that strong heart born with high spirits; the top-tier talent stacked with fearless will made Leng Yaoju feel as if she could already see Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen's limitless future!

She respected Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen's will, used the Vice Pagoda Master's authority of the Spirit Pagoda to quickly screen Spirits meeting the conditions, countless Spirit Beasts flashed by, until finally one lone sprout shone brilliantly!

The ancient forest on the Soul Tool screen illuminated a Spirit Beast: a round head, a streamlined body, short and stout limbs, with a black-and-white mark in the center of the forehead signifying Yin-Yang attributes.

What was most eye-dropping was the state of this fellow right now; it was actually riding atop a Ten-Thousand-Year Golden Crocodile King, drifting leisurely!

"Wa-wa-capybara?"

Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen's brain froze for two and a half seconds; disbelieving, he confirmed once more that the creature resembling a kiwi fruit with four chopsticks stuck in it was truly a capybara!

"Auspicious Spirit Capybara, six hundred years of cultivation, Unyielding Spirit Number Ninety-Nine," Leng Yaoju said, her red lips parting lightly.

"This Spirit Beast is very, very, very special; the Golden Crocodile King, with such a violent and irritable temper, for the first time in history allowed another Spirit Beast to step on its head.

Auspicious Spirit Capybara, among the tens of millions of Spirits in the Spirit Pagoda, a unique auspicious beast!"

As she spoke, the Auspicious Spirit Capybara slowly walked down from the Golden Crocodile King and instead mounted the Green Shadow Divine Eagle.

Stepping on the Golden Crocodile to ride the wind and waves, riding the Green Eagle to soar straight up!

The prestige of an auspicious beast!

"Thousands of years ago, the Final War broke out; the Tian Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire fled overseas, the winner, the Sun Moon Empire, established the Sun Moon Federation, and the Limit Douluo Continent entered a new stage of peaceful development."

Leng Yaoju said, "Even though the Limit Douluo Continent welcomed unification, the human world never stopped moving, still constantly researching Soul Tool technology; mecha and Battle Armor technology gradually perfected, and ferocious beasts were no longer objects of fear.

Soul Master scholars believed the core of the Spirit Beast decline was Soul Tool technology, while others proposed another view: luck.

The decline of Spirit Beasts was actually due to the sacrifice of the Emperor Auspicious Beast to the Spirit Ice Limit Douluo Huo Huo Yuhao; the luck of the Spirit Beasts was swallowed by human luck, and from then on, humans went smoothly in everything, while Spirit Beasts fell into a slump.

Of course, Spirit Beasts had not thought of saving themselves; for instance, the Beast God Di Tian tried to cultivate a second Emperor Auspicious Beast..."

"A pipe dream," Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen hit the nail on the head. "The Emperor Auspicious Beast is a born emperor, unique in heaven and earth."

"Yes," Leng Yaoju said in a deep voice. "Star Dou failed; Di Tian could not raise a second Emperor Auspicious Beast, but in this process, he found an auspicious beast that protected a forest, the Auspicious Spirit Capybara.

The auspiciousness of the Auspicious Spirit Capybara is naturally not as good as the Three-Eyed Golden Jin Ni, but far exceeds that of the Golden Terrapin and the like; after its cultivation breaks through one hundred thousand years, it can stabilize part of the luck of the Spirit Beast race, the straw that Star Dou Forest can grasp to save its life."

"Now, it has fallen into the hands of the Spirit Pagoda," Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen said.

"To obtain more high-quality Spirits, that generation's Spirit Pagoda Master united with the Sun Moon Federation to raid Star Dou Forest," Leng Yaoju said with a solemn expression.

"All Title Limit Douluo of the Spirit Pagoda participated; the main and deputy masters of the War God Hall and the eighteen War Gods all went into battle; four of the eight legions were dispatched, and many continental powers responded.

Those not of our kind have hearts different from ours; besides, the ferocious beasts of Star Dou launched beast tides more than once; that time counted as a powerful human counterattack against Star Dou Forest.

The ferocious beasts of Star Dou only had Di Tian condensing dual soul cores; the four-character Character Doukai masters participating were six Limit Limit Douluo, and there were over thirty three-character Character Doukai masters who were Title Limit Douluo.

The amplification Character Doukai brought to Soul Masters was truly astonishing; even the number one ferocious beast under heaven, Di Tian, was defeated under the siege of Limit Limit Douluo.

Humans did not want to fight to the death with the ferocious beasts; both sides stopped the war and reached an agreement: the ferocious beasts vowed not to step out of the core area to harm the human world; humans retained the core area of Star Dou Forest, and after the war ended, captured a huge number of Spirit Beasts to make into Spirits.

After this battle, Star Dou Forest no longer had the auspicious beast Auspicious Spirit Capybara; the Spirit Pagoda gained Unyielding Spirit Number Ninety-Nine."

The Bai sisters exchanged a glance, seeing the sigh of regret on each other's faces; they had personally seen the high walls constructed by the Spirit Pagoda. Star Dou Forest was fenced in by humans; sooner or later, humans would start a war again; at that time, the ferocious beasts of Star Dou would either die in battle exploding into Spirit Rings and Spirit Bones, or become Spirits attached to Soul Masters.

Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen's expression was intriguing; what Leng Yaoju said was the bloody history from the Era of the Peerless Tang Sect to the Era of the Long Wang, with endless hatred.

"Auspicious beasts often awaken some wonderful and powerful abilities at birth, such as the Three-Eyed Golden Jin Ni's power of fate, and the Golden Terrapin's invincible shield. The Auspicious Spirit Capybara possesses near-perfect Yin-Yang attributes and has an innate ability called Stability, ignoring any bloodline suppression caused by any creature."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen's eyes suddenly brightened; Leng Yaoju understood that her disciple was indeed tempted, so she directly grabbed the Auspicious Spirit Capybara from the back of the Green Shadow Divine Eagle, making it appear in the room.

"The Auspicious Spirit Capybara's body is tougher than ordinary Spirit Beasts, and its spiritual power is the most outstanding; with six hundred years of cultivation, it can already establish a mental link with a Soul Master and conduct barrier-free communication.

At the level of an auspicious beast, only the main and vice Pagoda Masters of the Spirit Pagoda have the right to deploy it.

Due to the Auspicious Spirit Capybara's powerful attributes, its auspicious luck can protect the host in everything going smoothly; yet, two or three Spirit Pagoda Soul Masters with Yin-Yang attributes tried to fuse with the Auspicious Spirit Capybara, and without exception, they were strongly rejected by the Auspicious Spirit Capybara.

A Spirit contract being resisted by a Spirit Beast is a life-threatening major matter, so they painfully gave up. Zhao Xuanzhen, your teacher respects your choice, but only suggests you first communicate mentally with the Auspicious Spirit Capybara and try your best to persuade it to fuse."

"I'll try."

Channeling a beam of spiritual power to approach the Auspicious Spirit Capybara, Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen recalled memories from his past life; speaking of capybaras, would they really have strong emotions of rejection?

"Hello, Auspicious Spirit Capybara."

"Hello, human."

The mental link succeeded; the voice of the Auspicious Spirit Capybara entered Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen's ears, soft and gentle, with little tonal fluctuation.

"I want you to become my Spirit."

"No."

The human came straight to the point; the capybara bluntly refused.

An Unyielding Spirit, indeed unyielding...

Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen's gaze was Solemn; relying solely on the Stability talent that ignored bloodline suppression, the Auspicious Spirit Capybara was enough to stand out, let alone the suitability of its ability!

True Self Release!

Plan B activated; aura temptation, come into the bowl!

"Teacher Tun Tun," Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen advised, "you and I are a perfect match, exploring the Dao of Yin and Yang together; a hundred times better than being confined in a virtual space, isn't that delightful!"

"Better not."

The Spirit Auspicious Capybara glanced at Zhao, remaining as unmoving as a stone woman, unaffected. Previously, when reaching this point, those Soul Masters had all chosen to give up; after all, the Auspicious Beast is precious, but life is even more valuable!

"What if I insist?"

Politeness first, force second; Zhao Zhao Xuanzhen stepped closer, his shadow enveloping the Spirit Auspicious Capybara. His gaze stared nakedly, and anyone could feel the unyielding will within: I have plenty of strength and means!

That wolf-like, tiger-like, sharper-than-a-sickle, greedier-than-a-rat-finding-rice, more vicious-than-a-dog-meeting-dung look made the Spirit Auspicious Capybara's body stiffen slightly.

"You must force this..."

After a moment of standoff, the Spirit Auspicious Capybara slowly spoke:

"Very well."

Who said Capybaras are unyielding? This Capybara is far too soft!

Answering everyone's questions here: Genius genre, no system, complete outline, about six female leads. The Silver Long Wang must be tasted, so Gu Yue and Nao'er's situations differ from the original work; after all, no one wants a wife who was once someone else's childhood sweetheart. A reasonable explanation will be provided later.

The protagonist's innate martial soul is True Self, Yin-Yang attributes. The cheat is the Daoist arts, Bagua, and Bagua Qimen from a past life. In the future, he will not walk the path of Body Cultivation to prove the Dao through strength. Proving the Dao through strength is good, but cultivating body, spirit, and attributes together offers the protagonist an even broader horizon.

Four Soul Spirits: the first is the Auspicious Beast Capybara, whose ability is greater than the Golden Tortoise but less than the Three-Eyed Jin Ni; the second is a Yin-Yang attribute Soul Beast that appeared in the original series, which some friends have already guessed.

Everyone need not worry about fan-created characters; there are only a few passerby roles added for setting. The Legend of the Dragon Kings is far more complex than Peerless Tang Sect, and the protagonist starting at the Spirit Tower is completely different from starting with the Angel Glory or Nine-Colored Glazed Tile Sect.
