Chapter 430: Herb Garden, Killing Cai Mingshao (Second Update, Seeking Recommendations)

"Except for the Behemoth, kill the rest!"

Li Zhangsheng naturally wanted to test the method in the notebook; if it could truly restore a Spirit Beast's Bloodline Imprint rapidly as recorded, it would be of great significance to him, equivalent to gaining a channel to obtain Spirit Essence continuously.

Of course, Li Zhangsheng's technique would be appropriately gentler.

This way, they could not only survive but also be provided with good food and entertainment, sparing them from the toil of survival and the danger of death; while keeping them healthy, he would only need to draw blood periodically, treating it as the compensation for Li Zhangsheng raising them.

It was just like shearing sheep!

If they were an enemy's Demon Pet or like this Behemoth that had lost its reason, then being locked in a cage was necessary.

Furthermore, for Li Zhangsheng, even if this were truly as described in the notebook—capable of accelerating the recovery of a Spirit Beast's Bloodline Imprint—to him, who was about to master the complete "Book of Bloodlines," it could only be considered an auxiliary method.

"What a pity about that Thunder Cloud Storm Tiger!"

Li Zhangsheng thought to himself, using the Patriarch Token to open a Steel Cage and releasing an Ice Spirit Eagle.

【Spirit Beast Name】: Ice Spirit Eagle (Mature Stage, High-level Exotic Beast)

【Spirit Beast Realm】: Leader 3rd Rank

【Spirit Beast Race】: High-level Commander

【Spirit Beast Quality】: Mid-grade

【Spirit Beast Bloodline】: Ice Crystal Phoenix (Pure)

【Spirit Beast Attribute】: Ice

【Spirit Beast Status】: Weak, devoid of reason

【Spirit Beast Weakness】: Wind

Because it was devoid of any reason, the Ice Spirit Eagle had no sanity whatsoever; the moment it left the Steel Cage, it immediately flapped its wings and charged straight at Li Zhangsheng.

"Aixi, finish it off!"

As soon as Li Zhangsheng finished speaking, Aixi collided with it head-on.

Boom— Crack!

The bones of avian Spirit Beasts were relatively fragile, and since this Ice Spirit Eagle had been here for who knows how long, it was as thin as skin and bone; not only was it no match for Aixi, but it was also directly struck with broken tendons and bones.

The Ice Spirit Eagle slammed hard into the wall, causing the stone slab wall to crack and shatter, though this secret chamber had clearly been reinforced by Cai Yangqian and only swayed slightly.

Fatal Fang!

Not giving the Ice Spirit Eagle a chance, Aixi charged over again, its speed like a ghost, directly pinning the Ice Spirit Eagle—which was just about to get up—to the ground, using its massive weight to suppress it so it couldn't move at all.

In an instant, Aixi bared its sharp fangs, from which several inches of shining golden light extended, biting fiercely into the Ice Spirit Eagle's relatively thick neck.

Chirp—

The Ice Spirit Eagle, unable to dodge, only had time to let out a sharp, dying shriek before its neck was bitten through by Aixi's fangs.

Crack—

Accompanied by the crisp sound of bone fracturing, the Ice Spirit Eagle's shriek came to an abrupt end; its body twitched violently a few times, its eyes began to glaze over, and it finally succumbed to death.

"Next!"

While speaking, Li Zhangsheng opened the next cage, while he himself tidied up the Ice Spirit Eagle's carcass.

After all, the Ice Spirit Eagle possessed the Ice Crystal Phoenix Bloodline, so how could Li Zhangsheng waste it? Moreover, he remembered that Li Runfeng's Ice Sparrow also had the Ice Crystal Phoenix Bloodline, though it was only of Inferior Quality.

Not long after, except for the Behemoth, the other Steel Cages had been opened one by one, and the Spirit Beasts inside were all easily dealt with by Aixi.

"How do I transport it?" Looking at the huge Steel Cage containing the Behemoth, Li Zhangsheng became conflicted.

"After finishing off Cai Mingshao, I'll use the Purple Flame Corpse-Hiding Coffin to move the Behemoth; that seems to be the only way!"

The Behemoth's size was simply too large to hide, and given Li Zhangsheng's rank, he couldn't form a Temporary Contract with it to stuff it into a Monster Pet Bag.

Li Zhangsheng walked slowly out of the secret chamber; before going to finish off Cai Yangqian, he still had to make a trip to the backyard.

Not long ago, his Mental Power had sensed dozens of bright light spots in the backyard.

The backyard also had a Restriction, which looked quite profound.

Unfortunately, Cai Yangqian was perhaps too confident in himself; the Restriction here could still be opened with the Patriarch Token, which saved Li Zhangsheng some effort.

After opening the Restriction, Li Zhangsheng stepped into the backyard and saw that it was crisscrossed, the whole backyard giving the impression of a vegetable patch.

Only, what was planted weren't vegetables, but some plant-type Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.

These were Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure planted by Cai Yangqian according to the ancient records of the Shadow Snake King, most of which had the effect of accelerating the recovery speed of Bloodline Imprints.

Among them, one was a Heavenly Essence Grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.

It was a plant that looked like a clover, yet it had formed a connection with the starlight in the sky, drawing down a very, very thin ray of starlight and enveloping itself in it.

"Eh, Star Snatching Grass!"

Li Zhangsheng widened his eyes; he hadn't expected to find a Star Snatching Grass here, which could definitely be called an unexpected joy.

Star Snatching Grass was one of the main ingredients for the Moon Soul Star Snatching Pill and was a top-tier Heavenly Essence.

"This place is simply a Blessed Land!"

Li Zhangsheng rarely praised the Cai Clan Manor; this night, he could describe his gains here as substantial.

"Treasure-Seeking Mouse, the work of harvesting them is left to you; you must ensure their roots remain intact!"

Li Zhangsheng was planning to bring them back to raise; this way, the jar of Breathing Soil he had obtained from the Baisheng King Secret Realm would have a use.

After all, this was delicate work; Li Zhangsheng only had two Demon Pets capable of it—one was naturally Kailan, but she was currently watching Cai Yangqian, and the other was the Treasure-Seeking Mouse.

Having dug the earth for a lifetime, combined with sufficient patience, the Treasure-Seeking Mouse was very skilled at such work.

Li Zhangsheng took out some Jade Boxes of appropriate size and packed all the Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, which still had some soil on their roots, into them; only in this way could their vitality be better preserved.

After finishing this, Li Zhangsheng looked at the room on the left; Cai Mingshao's room was also connected to the backyard, which facilitated Li Zhangsheng's next move.

Li Zhangsheng came to the Restriction and pressed the Patriarch Token against it.

Unexpectedly, the previously infallible Patriarch Token failed to function at all and instead activated the alarm function of the Restriction.

Beep— Beep—

A harsh sound rang out, appearing especially loud in the silent night; it was likely that the entire Cai Clan Manor could hear it.

"A miscalculation, a miscalculation, but this does not affect the overall situation!"

Li Zhangsheng frowned slightly; he could already faintly hear the clamorous sound of footsteps rapidly approaching this location.

At the first opportunity, Li Zhangsheng summoned his Demon Pets.

"Attack!"

Following Li Zhangsheng's order, the Demon Pets launched a powerful offensive one after another; over a dozen light beams, light orbs, and rays of light rained down crazily upon the Restriction.

In the room on the left, Cai Mingshao, who had been sleeping soundly, sat up immediately, his eyes clearly showing a bit more vigilance.

Who touched the Restriction?

Before Cai Mingshao could even put on his clothes, a powerful roaring sound erupted, directly drowning out the harsh alarm.

Accompanying this was a violent shaking of the ground; the Restriction had only held for a few seconds before being forcibly broken by external force, even affecting the room as tiles and stones flew everywhere, and a small portion of the room directly became ruins.

"Who? Who is it?"

Cai Mingshao immediately became panicked; he knew very well the strength of the Restriction protecting his room, because it was a Restriction he had set up himself.

Even an ordinary Fourth-rank Demon Tamer could not possibly break the Restriction in such a short amount of time.

There was an external enemy invading the Cai Clan Manor, and the opponent was highly likely to be a Fifth-tier Beastmaster, or multiple Fourth-rank Demon Tamers.

It would be a lie to say Cai Mingshao was not panicked in his heart, especially since his father had not returned after going out last night, which made him uneasy to the extreme.

"I must save myself; I cannot entrust my life entirely to the clansmen!"

Cai Mingshao forced himself to calm down, wanting to find a place to hide and delay for time as much as possible.

It was naturally not without reason that Cai Yangqian valued Cai Mingshao; Cai Mingshao was steady and poised, unlike Caimingshu who was frivolous, making him more suitable to inherit the family business.

"Found you!"

Unfortunately, before Cai Mingshao could hide, Li Zhangsheng's voice rang out, and he was quietly hovering in the void, looking down at him.

Upon hearing Li Zhangsheng's voice, Cai Mingshao's entire body stiffened; influenced by the will to survive, he immediately summoned his Demon Pets at the fastest speed.

Several hexagrams blinked, just enough to wrap around Cai Mingshao.

When the Demon Pets appeared, Cai Mingshao was also looking up at Li Zhangsheng; when he sensed Li Zhangsheng's aura, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The opponent was only a Fourth-rank Demon Tamer, not the Fifth-tier Beastmaster he had imagined.

And Cai Mingshao considered himself not an ordinary Third Rank Demon Tamer; even if he were not a match for a Fourth-rank Demon Tamer, he could at least manage to delay for some time.

Unfortunately, Li Zhangsheng was also not an ordinary Fourth-rank Demon Tamer.

"Finish him!"

Li Zhangsheng issued the order to attack, and at the same time, he projected his Mental Power to examine Cai Mingshao's Demon Pets.

Two were Superior Quality, and the rest were all Mid-grade, though their species were relatively high-tier, barely counting as excellent among Third Rank Demon Tamers.

Until this moment, Cai Mingshao saw Li Zhangsheng's Demon Pets; when he felt their quantity and momentum, his face instantly turned pale, and his back was soaked with cold sweat.

The opponent had several Leader-level Demon Pets alone, and the rest were all Elite-level; Cai Mingshao did not know their quality, but he recognized their breeds—every one of them was a Commander Species Demon Pet.

And as for him, he only had two Elite-level Demon Pets; not only was the gap with the opponent obvious, but the quantity was also far inferior to the opponent.

This isn't how you play!

"Block, block them!"

Cai Mingshao was so nervous that his tongue was tied; his Demon Pets were also extremely nervous and could only bite the bullet and try their best to block the opponent.

Aixi was the fastest, colliding head-on and knocking an Elite-level Terror Wolf flying; before the Terror Wolf could land, it opened its mouth and spat out a Golden Light Beam, instantly engulfing the Terror Wolf.

Under Aixi's offensive, the Terror Wolf naturally had no possibility of survival.

Pfft~

Cai Mingshao's eyes widened, and he tilted his head back to spit out a mouthful of blood, his Consciousness Sea also in a state of shock.

At this moment, Adai extended its huge claws and grabbed at another Elite-level Demon Pet.

This was a Red-Armored Earth Dragon covered in fire-red scales, which was also Cai Mingshao's Life-Bound Demon Pet.

Crack!

The Red-Armored Earth Dragon's prideful defensive power was no different from tofu in front of Adai, as its chest was directly pierced by a huge claw, which came out directly from the other side.

Roar~

The Red-Armored Earth Dragon let out a miserable shriek after the fact, its massive body falling heavily to the ground, dying instantly.

Chirp~

Before the backlash from the Life-Bound Demon Pet could arrive, the Crowned Blazing Bird dove down, its sharp Bird Beak directly piercing his neck.

Today's goal: 3, pigs, verified!
