Exotic Beast

Biodata

Background / History

Exotic Beasts are mutated wild animals that possess unique innate talents, superior intelligence compared to ordinary beasts, and bodies far tougher than standard wildlife 10 59 82. They actively avoid human crowds, making encounters rare and purely a matter of luck 11. In regions like Hequ County, only top martial arts schools and the three great families can stably source Exotic Beast meat through domesticating special meat-producing variants, such as the Fan Family's cattle-like beasts, the Guo Family's regenerative giant pythons, and the Yu Family's high-breeding rabbits 22 66.

Exotic Beasts frequently ally with Demons, launching massive coordinated beast tides and attacks against human settlements and sects like the True Martial Sect 123 238. Powerful specimens guard strategic light-curtain portals and mountain strongholds, such as Mang Mountain and the Hundred Thousand Mountains 183 267 279. Human cultivators hunt them extensively for their meat, which serves as a potent cultivation supplement, as well as for bones, scales, and bloodline essences used in crafting treasures and advancing martial arts 10 66 100 183.
