Chapter 1703 Ting The Sky Soar Wolf

While Lin MU had known that Ming Aolian and Ming Dandan were beast tamers, he didnʼt know much about their tamed beasts.

Or rather, they hadnʼt shown their tamed beasts yet. But since they were at the Third Tribulation Stage of the immortal realm, Lin Mu reckoned their beasts mustnʼt be weak either. After all, for most cultivators, taming a beast stronger than them was a difficult thing.

One could tame a weaker beast, and then raise it to become stronger. That way the bond could be maintained and they would have no issues. And since Ming Aolian was in the Tournament, Lin Mu didnʼt think her beast would be weaker than her.

After all, using a weaker beast wouldnʼt be the best option. If she was doing that, she may as well just fight directly using her own cultivation base. That would be stronger than using a beast.

”My tamed beast is here,” Ming Aolian pointed to her neck while raising it.

Lin Mu followed her finger and saw a rectangular pendant hanging there. It was about the length of a thumb and similarly as wide. But the most eye catching part was the pattern that was printed on it.

It was that of a feather, a tiger claw and a serpentʼs tail. The three markings were touching each other in a triangular shape.

”An Immortal Rank Beast Storage Treasure,” Lin Mu recognized the object.

He had learned about them a long time ago and even had a damaged Beast Storage treasure. It was the wooden plate in which the Great Slumber Bear had been smuggled into the Xiaofan world.

The damage to the treasure had led to the escape of the Great Slumber Bear, which had set off a chain of events that affected Lin Mu greatly. There was no way he wouldnʼt know this was, but it was still a bit surprising to him how long it had taken him to see another one of them.

”Yes, I keep my tamed beast in it.” Ming Aolian nodded before tapping the pendant.

~shua~

The pendant lightly glowed before a beast appeared next to Ming Aolian. It was about three meters tall and a bit more than four meters long.

Light grey fur covered its body, while four sharp claws propped up its muscular body. Its furry tail swayed from right to left, while its yellow eyes gazed at them.

”A wolf?” Lin Mu said but then saw something more.

Curled up on the beastʼs back, he could see feathers that were the same color as its fur. Because of how similar the color was, they melded with its fur making it look part of it. But Lin Mu soon realized that they werenʼt just feathers, but entire wings!

”A winged wolf?” Lin Mu muttered.

”This is Ting, sheʼs a Sky Soar Wolf.” Ming Aolian introduced.

Upon hearing her name being called, the Ting unfurled her wings, flaunting them proudly. The wolfʼs wing span was nearly eight meters wide and looked rather big compared to her body.

It was hard to tell that she had wings this large when they were furled up.

But that wasnʼt all as Lin Mu could sense the cultivation of the wolf too. Ting was at the Third Tribulation Stage of the Immortal Realm like Ming Aolian but she was almost at the peak. It felt like she would be able to break through in a year or two as well.

ʼI guess we can cut that time down a bit…ʼ Lin Mu thought to himself.

After all, even if the beast was able to break through, triggering the Immortal Tribulation would be up to it. Thus there was no danger of it being activated in the middle of a battle or anything like that.

In the case of Little Shrubby, it was an exception since it was his bloodline that had triggered it.

Having thought of this, Lin Mu knew exactly what to do.

”I think I can help Ting even more.” Lin Mu spoke.

”Oh? How so?” Ming Aolian asked.

”More help than what you intend to do during the fight?” Ming Dandan said in a low voice.

”Yes… thatʼll be something thatʼs more ʼvalidʼ too.” Lin Mu replied before taking out something.

But as soon as he did, the eyes of the Sky Soar Wolf were locked onto it. Her tail wagged nonstop while it started to breathe rapidly.

Ming Aolian noticed the excitement of her tamed beast and was surprised.

”What is that?” She couldnʼt help but ask.

Lin Mu extended his hand and opened his fingers, showing the pill. It was plain white and looked like a basic Qi restoration pill. And yet, the excitement that the Sky Soar Wolf was showing was astounding.

”A little something thatʼll help Ting.” Lin Mu replied.

”Isnʼt that a Qi restoration pill?” Ming Dandan muttered in confusion.

”It might look like one, but itʼs actually different.” Lin Mu said. ”Itʼs good for beasts.” He extended his hand toward the wolf.

Ting eagerly approached him and opened her mouth, revealing her sharp fangs.

To anyone else, this might be a terrifying scene and they wouldnʼt get this close to the maw of a beast. But to Lin Mu, there was nothing to fear. He had been close to several dangerous things and it wasnʼt like it would hurt him.

Even if the beast bit him, Lin Muʼs body would probably not sustain any damage. Though his robes would probably get drenched in the drool of the beast.

Ting quickly extended her tongue and licked the pill, pulling it back into her mouth. With how small the pill was compared to her tongue, it was easily consumed.

~shua~

As soon as the pill had entered her body, a strange feeling emanated from her.

”This…” Ming Aolian could sense the change in her tamed beastʼs body too.

After all, they had a bond too and could tell the changes happening in each otherʼs body. She didnʼt know exactly what Lin Mu had given her beast, but now it was bringing some profound changes.

She hadnʼt felt like Lin Mu would feed anything dangerous to her tamed beast. She had enough trust in him for that.

~WHIMPER~

But then, the Sky Soar Wolf let out a whimper of pain, as if hurt.

”Ting, whatʼs wrong?” Ming Aolian couldnʼt help but ask in concern.

Her tamed beast getting injured before the fight was not a terrible thing. But before she could worry anymore, the situation changed.

~SHUA~

Tingʼs body surged with energy as her aura started to rise.

~HOWL~

The Sky Soar Wolf lifted its head and let out a howl, energy waves rolling of her body.

Subtle changes started to appear on her body too. Her fur took on a better sheen while the feathers became supple. Her eyes gleamed in fierce light, while abundant vitality could be felt coming from her body.

Ming Aolian was baffled at this change.

She could tell that while the cultivation base of Ting hadnʼt changed, there was still an improvement.

The improvement was on a microscopic level as if everything had been fine tuned.

Ming Dandan who was watching it all was stunned at the sudden changes too. She couldnʼt put her finger on what exactly had happened but could tell that Ting had improved by quite a bit.

”What just happened?” She couldnʼt help but say.

”Ting… her bloodline… Just strengthened?” Ming Aolian was able to somewhat grasp.

”It did?!” Ming Dandan was doubtful.

Both of them were beast tamers and knew just how important bloodlines were. As their main occupation, increasing the strength of their tamed beast was one of their most important duties.

Increasing the strength and purity of the bloodline was one of the ways of doing that. But bloodlines were not so simple that they could just strengthen them on a whim.

One needed special treasures, herbs or other opportunities to do so. Sometimes a beast would just be unlucky and nothing would help them.

Simply feeding a pill wasnʼt something that they would have ever expected to strengthen a bloodline like this.

Ming Aolian could tell that the increase was just of a few percent. But even that was a massive change.

After all, to improve a bloodline by even 1% was a tough job.

She had spent several years in working with Ting and had barely managed to raise her original bloodline by less than five percent. And yet, Lin Mu had done the same with just a single pill.

It was almost like a dream and she couldnʼt believe it at all.

Of course, if she knew that the reason behind the sudden improvement was Beast Qi she would understand it all. As a beast tamer, she obviously knew about Beast Qi and how difficult was to obtain.

Most beasts only got it from naturally cultivating or consuming other beasts. And yet, here it was one given in the form of a pill.

Lin Mu had simply injected a streak of Beast Qi into a pill to be given to the beast.
