The Beast-Taming Craftsman · Page 1 of 8
The Iron-Eating Beast training secret realm.
Shi Jin still stood quietly on the field.
Little Eleven had not been recalled; instead, it shrank little by little and crawled back onto Shi Ying's shoulder. The Iron-Eating Beast from a moment ago clearly had not satisfied it.
It was not short of powerful opponents—Chongchong, Chi Tong, and the others were all strong—but fighting its own kind was simply more fun. It meant to be the strongest Iron-Eating Beast!
Modern Iron-Eating Beasts were all too weak, but here in the ancient world there were many targets Eleven could challenge. So Eleven's gaze turned once more toward the void above.
From the moment they entered, Shi Jin and the others had sensed that this ruin secret realm held another totem. And now Eleven was more or less certain that this totem was an Iron-Eating Beast! When the space had been slightly shattered moments ago, the other's aura had leaked out in greater measure. "Yip~~" Eleven chirped toward the sky.
Shi Jin stroked its head and looked with a smile toward the mother and daughter, Ji Li and Ji Nai. "I can wait for His Majesty the Martial Emperor." "By the way, I've been curious about something this whole time."
"This secret realm should be home to a totem, correct?" Shi Jin said. "And it's an Iron-Eating Beast as well."
In the alternate space, the Iron-Eating Myriad Beasts Sect started. It had sensed him? "Hm?" Ji Li and Ji Nai were also taken aback, not expecting Shi Jin to suddenly bring this up. Just then, before they could answer, the void was torn open.
A two-meter-tall giant panda came sauntering over, green-gold bamboo in one paw, gnawing on it as it walked with a swagger. It kept the form of an ordinary Iron-Eating Beast, likely in a state of restraint.
The Iron-Eating Beast clan was fortunate; born with a restraint skill, they did not have to wait until totem rank to develop one anew. "Xuan Yi Sect." Seeing this swaggering giant panda, Ji Li called out. "Awoo." The panda responded while turning its gaze to Cen Yu.
"You can sense my existence?" The Iron-Eating Myriad Beasts Sect narrowed its eyes and also looked at Eleven on Cen Yu's shoulder. "Is it some special beast-taming talent?" Truly not simple.
As a partial holder of authority over this ruin, it was like a god within it.
Under such circumstances, Shi Jin and the others could actually detect its existence—and even determine its species. "I suppose you could say so."
"My actual profession is archaeology. I have the talent of Listening to History. I explore ruins and secret realms constantly, and for the conditions of a ruin's secret space, one glance is enough for me to grasp the general picture." Shi Jin smiled.
In truth, it was also thanks to three god-tier resources, his Body Control talent, and the feedback from Lin and the others, which made Shi Ying's perception rival that of a totem. "Archaeologist??" The Iron-Eating Myriad Beasts Sect started. "A graverobber?" What graverobber! Beside them, Ji Li was speechless.
Still—Listening to History... that special branch talent of telepathy? Ji Li looked at Shi Jin, unable to comprehend.
As one of the foremost second-generation scions of Donghuang, she naturally knew something of this talent. She had never imagined that the one who defeated her would turn out to have a telepathy talent—a non-combat talent... Shi Jin said, "There are some subtle differences... By the way, you should not be the Martial Emperor's contracted battle beast, correct?"
"I heard that His Majesty the Martial Emperor's Iron-Eating Beast has already crossed into totem rank, and I assumed it was here, but it seems that is not the case..." Shi Jin said. He had heard Ji Li's earlier form of address. The Iron-Eating Myriad Beasts Sect. So that was it.
It should be the guardian deity of the Iron-Eating Beast tribe.
