Epic Of The Second Strongest Demonic Blade King - Chapter 183

“Yes, senior” Xiao Lin and his group said at the same time.

“Good!” The elder said.

He then turned the door knob of the door with the door opening to reveal what was in the room.

As soon as the door opened and showed to everyone what was in the room which surprisingly spanned hundreds of meters in length and width, Xiao Lin and the others couldn’t help but become shocked by what they saw.

In this particular room that was immensely large in size, could be seen hundreds of huge cages that had some form of thin brown papers with glowing, glyphic characters written on them, attached to the doors of the cages.

Zhao Yu who was naturally, overly inquisitive, looked at the elder in front of them and asked without shyness in her tone, as she wasn’t the one to be shy about anything that will increase her knowledge, or make her understand about things more, “Senior, what are those papers attached to the door of the cages?”

“Oh, those are just Spiritually Enchanted Restrictive papers. They are pasted on the doors like labels to prevent the monstrous cultivation beasts from leaving their cages and wreaking havoc outside.” The elder replied.

“Wow! Alright. Thank you for your explanation, senior” Zhao Yu said while Xiao Lin and Tian Xi nodded their heads. While the elder said, “Anytime!”

But Zhao Yu who still wanted to ask questions, asked further, “But senior, what are the beasts doing in the cages? What are they really meant for?”

“Well, we tame them. But at this moment, these beasts which are freshly captured cultivation beasts, right from deep, dark valleys that no lone cultivator will dare to venture into alone, haven’t been fully tamed. Although we are trying our best to tame them, the beasts however are making our efforts futile. But at the end of the day, they will eventually succumb to us. There is nothing they can do than have their minds subdued by us and turned into tamed cultivation beasts, which we would give to some of our noteworthy disciples as prizes for a particular ranked mission.” The elder said while Xiao Lin and the rest nodded their heads.

“Oh. That’s great. So, senior, when do you think that the sect will allow us to go for ranked missions?” Zhao Yu asked with a smile in her face.

“Well, that will be after you have spent a year and the half at the sect, cultivating and comprehending. Then once that requirement has been satisfied, and your individual and group battle prowess has been assessed and marked as ‘fair’, ‘fairly good’, ‘good’, ‘excellent’, ‘transcendent’, ‘bewildering’, ‘otherworldly’, and ‘godly’, then you will be given missions that is correspondent to your battle prowess scores. Haha.” The elder said and chuckled.

“Oh. That sounds great. Thank you once again for your explanations, elder. I now understand a bit of the sect and hope to understand much more.” Zhao Yu said while the elder only nodded his head.

He then said, “Just a matter of time, lad. Therefore, with time, you will get to understand so many things about the sect, as long as you can pay attention to why is being talked or discussed about by your teachers and their supervisory elders”

“Alright” Zhao Yu said with a delighted smile appearing on her face.

She then began to look at the seemingly, infinitely long rows of enormous cages that lined both sides of the wide, rough stony path that they were walking on at the moment.

“So, would you like to know the names of these cultivation beasts and a fair bit of their abilities?” The elder asked as he looked at the cages that were on both sides of the path that they calmly walked on.

“Yes, senior” Zhao Yu and the rest immediately nodded their heads.

“Here, this beast…” The elder said, pointing at one, “…is a beast called the Furious Annihilating Roar Beast. It is a beast, as it name implies, that is capable of killing both mortals and cultivators with it roar that can travel thousands of meters in far less of an instant.”

“It roars normally, like usual beasts. But when using it inherent bloodline power, it is capable of turning the sound waves produced by either it soundless or high-pitched roar into actual, radiant blades formed from the tremendous compaction of air and invisibly imbued with it inherent lineage power, which will rapidly slash apart and quickly lacerate to shreds anything that they would come across in their paths of near-unlimited, sharpness-bound destruction.”

“Therefore, this beast which is always in a frenzied state, can only be truly captured by powerful cultivators, I mean those that stand at cultivation stages far above it own.” The elder said while Xiao Lin and the others couldn’t help but have their eyes glow in shock.

‘What power.’ Xiao Lin said within himself.

He then thought further, ‘With my inherent power of Vampiric Compulsion, a sub-ability of Absolute Mind Control, I should be able to force this beast into being my Beast Slave, for as long as I would be able to hold the power coursing about within it mind. But just imagine having this kind of terrifying beast in my possession, I will just seat on my throne of power and make it go wreak carnage in the organizations of my damned enemies. Haha.’

‘However, unfortunately for me, I don’t have that level of ability yet to mind-compel this huge beast, or it would be the beast that will turn me into smooth, tiny slices of flesh and bones if I dare come near it and try to use my invasive compulsion power on it. Ugh!’ Xiao Lin said within himself.

He then said further inwardly, ‘How I wish I could have all these beasts for myself, but that is only a dream that I know cannot come true.’

He then looked at the beast in another cage which the elder pointed at and listened to his explanations, “Now, this other beast, is called the Profound Freezing Devil Beast. As it name also implies, is a beast capable of releasing powerful, ravaging breaths of exceedingly cold air from it mouth, therefore meaning that is a ice and frost-breather. Apart from that, it can use it inherent, ice manipulation power to affect the temperature of the atmosphere around it. So, it could cause snow to fall almost endlessly that it could bury an entire region, can turn large bodies of water into solid blocks of ice, can draw large amounts of moisture from the air and turn it into sharp-pointed, mountainous glaciers which could materialize directly above a particular target and fall with immense heaviness upon them. Haha. What a terrifying beast. I would prefer this beast more than the other beasts stored in cages in here. I might be wrong, but I love it abilities.”

“True, elder. The abilities of the beasts that you have mentioned so far are really impressive. So, this makes them excellent to use in human and supportive beast-companion battles!” Zhao Yu said excitedly while the elder nodded his head.

He then said further as he pointed at another beast in one of the immense cages stored in the Beast Taming room, “That beast, is called the Heavenly Wooden Burst Scarlet Lion. It’s a beast with the ability to unleash towering, devastating floods or incomparably-sized tidal waves of Wood Spiritual Energy, one of the classic, elemental Spiritual Energies from it entire wood-like body, which is however tremendously tough to break, despite being wood.”

“So, the large, destructive floods of energy which would rush out from this particular beast that is hypothesized to possess the largest amounts of Wood Spiritual Energy in the world, will cause great havoc and devastation wherever they would sweep through.”

“Then aside from that, and since it possesses the ability to release floods and even devastating, super-sized tsunamis of Wood Spiritual Energy, is totally capable of causing thick and huge, spiraling branches of trees to near-endlessly sprout from deep within the ground to viciously impale a particular target, or fully wrap around their bodies and then constrict, instantly causing their bodies to violently burst into clouds or mists of blood.”

“Also, before I forget, it is one of the beasts that we are wary about at the sect. Since it can control anything made of wood, it could use the remaining slivers of it nascent, Wood Control spiritual power to strip away the Spiritually Enchanted Restrictive papers pasted on the doors of their beast storage cages. And once that happens, with all the cultivation beasts here regaining their fully restricted inherent abilities, they could cause unimaginable devastation and irrecoverable damages to our sect for imprisoning them, then for trying to tame them to become our beast mounts, something that virtually no living entity would accept, unless they don’t want their freedom and are tremendously glad to be stepped upon and ordered about like actual, will-less slaves. Haha.” The elder said and chuckled, while Zhao Yu and the rest became more wary and careful immediately after they heard what the elder mentioned.

Seeing how careful they had become, the elder unexpectedly burst into laughter again.

Hahaha!

He then said to them with a friendly smile surfacing in his face, “Lads, no need to panic. The beasts here can’t do anything, even after the papers pasted on their doors have been torn off, they would just be lambs waiting for their helpless slaughter. Do you know the number of powerful teachers, elders and even mighty, recluse elders that we have here at the sect? Haha! Furthermore, I was only mentioning the abilities of the beasts at their apex stages. Right now, they are still extremely far away from those stages, which is why we tame them and give them to our disciples who are able to successfully complete a particularly ranked mission or task. So, no need to panic anymore. Stop your shakiness and return your dilated eyes to normal.. Haha.”
