Arranging the Hundred Cultivation Arts
As Yang Tianyou's voice fell in the courtyard, all seven Spirit Beast beasts froze.
"Awoo..."
Fengling led the opposition, raising the wolf's head high and tilting it to one side in protest, but its small eyes kept glancing towards its master.
Yang Tianyou glanced at it indifferently, and Fengling immediately wilted, its head drooping, its wolf face filled with helplessness.
It's estimated that Yang Tianyou is the only one in the entire Cultivation World who has sent his Spirit Beast to learn Hundred Arts of Cultivation.
Of course, his idea wasn't entirely unfounded; it was based on something.
The first page of the Jade Register Heavenly Book contains the Dao Comprehension Space, which enhances the comprehension of several Spirit Beasts, placing their understanding of the Dao in the upper-middle range even among Human Race geniuses of the same level.
This undoubtedly greatly compensated for the weakness of the Demon Race in this regard.
Therefore, theoretically speaking, it is entirely feasible to let the Fengling and the others each learn one of the Hundred Arts of Cultivation.
This also saves those guys from idling around aimlessly after finishing their cultivation practice.
"Alright, it's decided then. Hmm... let me think about which Hundred Cultivation Arts I should arrange for you." Yang Tianyou rested his chin on his hand, his gaze sweeping over the Spirit Beasts as he pondered which Hundred Arts of Cultivation would be suitable for them.
After a cup of tea, Yang Tianyou spoke.
"Alright then, Yuan Ba, you'll study the Artifact Refining Dao. Since you have a fiery temper, if you find other types of Law Artifacts unpalatable, you can focus on crafting Fire Attribute Law Artifacts, even Forbidden Artifacts. This will allow you to maximize the potential of your Scarlet Bright Demon Fire and your understanding of the Way of Fire!"
"Xuanyin, you can develop in the direction of Musical Harmonizer, learning Special Melodies that Mind-Washing and Enlightening the Mind. This will not only hone your talent but also add to the Lineage's heritage. As for the classics on Musical Harmonizer, there are quite a few in the Lineage's Scripture Repository. Take a look first, and if that's not enough, I'll send someone to find more."
"Tongming, since you possess the Netherworld-Seeing Divine Eye of Penetrating the Netherworld, you should develop your skills in the Way of Formations. Observing the mysteries of heaven and earth and all living beings, and then using the Way of Formation Dao to evolve them, would be a perfect match. Moreover, you have fallen from a high realm, so your understanding of the Dao of Heaven and Earth is still intact. You should be able to quickly step into the threshold of becoming Formation Master."
"Fengling, since you love to eat so much, why don't you become Spirit Chef? Starting tomorrow, go report to your mother and have her teach you the art of spirit cooking when she has time. And Xuanyang, you two always like to hang out together. After learning the art of spirit cooking, won't you have more in common?"
"Ruoqing, you should go with Fengling too. He'll learn the art of culinary arts, and you'll learn the art of brewing. There are plenty of brewers in the Lineage restaurant, and your Ice talent will be put to good use in that area!"
"Black and White, you cultivate the Curse Way, and your Demon Power is unpredictable and ever-changing. The power contained within is quite suitable for dealing with Gu Insect. You can work part-time as Gu Insect Master from now on!"
"Finally, there's Zhiming. With your Diting Bloodline, Listening to the World's Voice, and unparalleled keen Detection skills, coupled with your pure heart, majestic Demon Power, and auspicious aura, it would be a real shame if you weren't used for Alchemy. Another day I'll find you a spiritual fire and teach you the Yin-Yang Spirit-Tempering Method. I believe you'll definitely become an excellent Alchemist in the future!"
Based on the temperament, hobbies, and talents of the various Spirit Beasts, Yang Tianyou determined the Hundred Cultivation Arts they needed to learn.
After hearing this, the Fengling felt that what their master wanted them to cultivate was quite to their liking, so their original resistance lessened a lot, and they readily agreed.
Just then, a soft, bell-like laugh came from behind; it was Yunhua.
She extended her slender, jade-like finger and tapped Yang Tianyou's forehead. A mischievous glint flashed across her fair and delicate face. "You really know how to give Fengling and the others trouble!"
Yang Tianyou smiled, then took the exceptionally smooth little hand in his, and pointed to Tongming and Xuanyin, introducing them, "This is your Mistress, Yunhua!"
Then, he said to Yunhua, "These are the Spirit Beasts I recently acquired in the Three Blazing Flame Palace Secret Realm, Tongming and Xuanyin, both with extraordinary bloodlines."
"Greetings, Mistress!" Tongming and Xuanyin greeted her, following the etiquette of Human Race Cultivators.
"Alright, I won't let you call me that for nothing. Here are two Tier 2 Supreme-Grade Law Artifacts. You can take them and use them first!" Yunhua smiled gently, flipped her jade hand, and took out two Law Artifacts.
They are an octagonal Formation Platform and a string of Small Bronze Bells.
The two beasts were naturally even happier to receive the gift, especially Xuanyin, as it was the first time it had ever owned its own Law Artifact.
"Alright, I've said everything I needed to say. You lot, except for Zhiming, may all leave."
"You may go anywhere on Purple Moon Mountain that I can go, except for the summit. That is where our Old Ancestor cultivates in seclusion, and you must not disturb him too much."
"Especially you, Fengling, don't go to the Old Ancestor's Spirit Medicine Garden to steal fruit all the time, do you hear me?"
As Yang Tianyou spoke, he glared at Fengling.
The latter nodded quickly, but her eyes darted around, clearly not listening.
Upon seeing this, strands of black lines seemed to appear on Yang Tianyou's forehead.
Fengling has always been like this since it was a child. Every time it makes a mistake, Yang Tianyou scolds it, and it always behaves obediently, but it never changes its behavior next time.
Yes, he admits his mistake well, but he'll do it again next time; he's a complete scoundrel.
"Alright, alright, go back to what you were doing. You can use any of my Lineage Contribution Points, just remember to keep a record! Oh, and Zhiming, leave this here!"
"Awoo..."
As soon as Yang Tianyou finished speaking, Fengling let out a joyful cry, and together with Ruoqing, they transformed into a Gentle Breeze and disappeared into the courtyard.
The other Spirit Beasts also dispersed. Yuan Ba and Xuanyin put their arms around each other's shoulders, preparing to find a secluded place to spar in Body Techniques.
The old monkey, Tongming, thought he should first take a general tour of Purple Moon Mountain to get a feel for where he would live in the future.
As usual, Black and White prepared to find a few familiar elders of the Yang Clan to play chess with, which was its greatest hobby.
Zhiming squatted on the ground, his big ears twitching slightly, his round eyes staring straight at Yang Tianyou, filled with longing and anticipation.
It certainly Dao Master had left it behind; during this trip to the Secret Realm, Yang Tianyou had obtained two of the Nine Qi.
These are [Earth Qi - Kun Origin Qi] obtained from the Sect Treasury, and [Spiritual Qi - Great Profound Spirit-Communing Qi] discovered deep within the Spirit Beast Hall.
The latter was one of the many supplies that Yang Tianyou discovered in the Spirit Beast Hall.
How could such a vast Spirit Beast Peak only contain a few Spirit Beasts and a Spirit Beast Hall? There are also many other resources, most of which are related to the cultivation of Spirit Beasts.
Just like this Great Profound Spirit-Communing Qi, although only thirty-odd strands remain, its grade is as high as the Fourth-Tier High-Grade, which can enlighten the Wisdom of low-level Spirit Beasts and improve their talents.
Of course, even if this small amount of Great Profound Spirit-Communing Qi is of high grade, it's not worth many Spirit Stones. But it's rare, and Zhiming only needs a small amount of Spiritual Qi to open his bloodline; he only needs a catalyst.
For Zhiming, the Nine Qi is more like a key—a key to unlock the Bloodline Treasury that is Diting.
"Are you ready?" Yang Tianyou asked Zhiming with a smile.
Zhiming nodded.
Yang Tianyou waved his hand gently, and five strands of dark yellow Kun Yuan Kun Origin Qi and five strands of jade white Great Profound Spirit-Communing Qi drifted down and disappeared into Zhiming's brow.
