Old Chrysanthemum, You're Pretty Wild, Huh

Over the next few days, Uchiha Huan was finally able to calm down and cultivate properly.

He had only just managed to raise his Soul Power Level to level 15 when Guang Ling came knocking again.

This time, however, he came through the front door instead of firing another Guang Ling Arrow up at him.

Uchiha Huan only wanted to cultivate in peace. Why did Guang Ling have to keep picking on him?

Uchiha Huan immediately created a Clone Technique and sent it before Guang Ling. "Bro, what are you here for this time?"

"Let's go out and have some fun." Guang Ling's eyes lit up as he looked at Uchiha Huan. Uchiha Huan had humiliated him last time, but Guang Ling had completely forgotten about it by the next day. Whenever he had free time these past two days, he had wanted to come find Uchiha Huan again.

Still, he never wanted to experience streaking naked over Spirit City again.

Uchiha Huan rubbed his brow. "Where's the nearest Soul Hunting Forest?"

"I'll take you there. Are you hunting Soul Beasts? I'll help you."

"Not hunting Soul Beasts. I'm going to show you something fun," Uchiha Huan said.

Guang Ling grabbed Uchiha Huan and soared into the air.

"What kind of fun?"

"Do you know any interesting Soul Beasts?"

"Hmm..." Guang Ling thought for a long time before suddenly recalling something. "Myriad Transformation Beasts."

"What kind of Soul Beast is that?"

"They're Soul Beasts that feed specifically on fear. They can transform into other Soul Beasts and even mimic their aura. One of them scared me before." Guang Ling lowered his head to look at Uchiha Huan, whom he was carrying in one hand. "You want to catch a Myriad Transformation Beast?"

"I have a method that can form a contract with a Soul Beast and link our minds. Low-level Soul Beasts without much intelligence can be commanded freely. As for high-level ones, they can also be contracted as long as we can reach an agreement."

As he spoke, Uchiha Huan took out a scroll. It was the Summoning Scroll contract he had just finished over the past two days.

His main concern was that his strength was still too low. If he could contract a high-age Soul Beast, his safety would be guaranteed.

Guang Ling's expression grew increasingly delighted. He had almost no demands when it came to strength.

But he loved strange and unusual things like this.

"Give it to me, give it to me..."

"Give you what? Would you even know how to use it if I gave it to you?"

"Then teach me."

"I'll demonstrate first," Uchiha Huan said. "Let's find that Myriad Transformation Beast you mentioned."

The two arrived above the Soul Hunting Forest, and Guang Ling spread out his senses.

His perception was like a massive radar, swiftly sweeping across a radius of a thousand meters.

With such efficient perception, Guang Ling abruptly changed direction and swept over the rolling mountain forests.

Uchiha Huan spotted a white Soul Beast. It was three meters long, with the body of a mountain antelope. Agile and nimble, it leaped deftly along the cliff face.

"Is that the Soul Beast?"

"That's right. It's a five-thousand-year Myriad Transformation Beast."

As Guang Ling finished speaking, he pulled Uchiha Huan down in front of the Soul Beast.

The Soul Beast was startled. Its body immediately expanded before transforming into a massive black bear. Even its aura became more than ten times stronger as it bared its fangs and claws at Uchiha Huan and Guang Ling, roaring in intimidation.

"That's impressive." Uchiha Huan exclaimed in admiration.

"Don't be fooled by its nearly perfect disguise. It's actually all show." Guang Ling abruptly released his aura, directly shattering the Myriad Transformation Beast's disguise.

The Myriad Transformation Beast rolled several times across the ground, then fled in panic.

"Subdue it."

Guang Ling was about to take out the Lightfeather Divine Bow when Uchiha Huan said, "Are you planning to shoot it into a pincushion?"

Guang Ling thought about it briefly, then put away the Lightfeather Divine Bow. With a Body Flicker Technique, he appeared in front of the Myriad Transformation Beast and pressed it down with one hand, suppressing it.

Uchiha Huan took out the scroll and spread it open. Dense, mysterious runes had been inscribed across its surface.

"Press its paw onto this, then press your own hand here as well. Use your Soul Power and a drop of blood."

Guang Ling did as instructed, while Uchiha Huan swiftly formed hand seals. "Summoning Technique: Contract Formation!"

At that moment, the runes on the Summoning Scroll seemed to come alive and burrowed into Guang Ling and the Myriad Transformation Beast's bodies.

Guang Ling suddenly felt as though a connection had formed between him and the Myriad Transformation Beast.

"Oh, it worked? I feel like I can give it orders now."

"Learn the Summoning Formula and the Summoning Release Formula," Uchiha Huan said. "Every summoning will consume a small amount of your Soul Power, and the Summoning Beast can also grow quickly by receiving that Soul Power."

"Can higher-age Soul Beasts be contracted too?"

"Soul Beasts below ten thousand years that lack intelligence are easy to contract. But Soul Beasts over ten thousand years old may retaliate if you force a contract on them. The Summoning Technique's binding power isn't very strong."

In the Naruto World, Orochimaru's Summoning Beast, Manda, was one that thought every day about turning on Orochimaru.

The Summoning Technique merely connected a ninja to a Summoning Beast. This Myriad Transformation Beast had limited intelligence, so Guang Ling could easily use their contractual connection to make it obedient.

"Also, Summoning Scrolls for high-age Soul Beasts are very troublesome to make. This Summoning Scroll can still contract over a dozen Summoning Beasts, so have fun with it." As Uchiha Huan spoke, he tossed another scroll to Guang Ling. "It contains some key points about the Summoning Technique. Figure it out yourself."

Guang Ling accepted the scroll and stuffed it into his Storage Soul Tool, then jumped onto the Myriad Transformation Beast's back. "Let's go, heading back."

"I'll head back first."

"You're not coming back with me?"

"No need." Uchiha Huan directly released the Clone Technique.

Poof—

"So it was a Clone Technique. This Soul Skill is really useful. No, he must have lots of other fun Self-Created Soul Skills. I need to find him."

Two hours later, Guang Ling rode the Myriad Transformation Beast to the entrance of Yue Guan's residence.

Yue Guan came out to receive his guest and saw the Myriad Transformation Beast beneath Guang Ling's butt.

"Eh, such a high-age Myriad Transformation Beast. Elder Guang Ling, how did you tame it?"

"It's my Summoning Beast now. Its name is Little White." Guang Ling jumped off Little White's back and patted its head.

Summoning Technique: Release!

Poof—

Little White vanished from where it stood.

"Haha... another success. I really am a genius."

Yue Guan revealed a look of surprise. "How did you do that?"

"Your disciple taught me. Is Xiao Huan home right now?"

"Uh..."

"What? He's not home?"

"He just asked me for ten thousand Gold Soul Coins and said he was moving out."

"Oh... then where is he living now?"

"I don't know."

Yue Guan finally understood why Uchiha Huan had rushed off so anxiously earlier. He had been hiding from Guang Ling.

Just then, a fat, round-eared man in luxurious robes approached from afar, struggling somewhat as he walked.

"Elder Yue Guan."

"Mm, and you are?"

"Elder Yue Guan, have you forgotten? I'm the shopkeeper of Spirit City's Great Medicine Hall."

"???" Yue Guan and Guang Ling both looked utterly confused.

"Elder Yue Guan... you said you hadn't brought any money and told me to come collect it at your residence. Did you... forget? Or are you short on funds? If that's the case, then forget about the money."

The corner of Yue Guan's mouth twitched. It had to be Uchiha Huan using his face.

"Oh... I remember now. How much?"

"One hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins."

"What?" Yue Guan cried out. "He... what did I buy?"

"Fifteen pieces of ten-thousand-year Whale Rubber, thirty-five pieces of thousand-year Whale Rubber, and one hundred sixty pieces of hundred-year Whale Rubber."

Guang Ling looked at Yue Guan with deep meaning in his eyes.

Yue Guan suppressed his killing intent and stiffly took out a Gold Soul Card from his Storage Soul Tool.

After sending the shopkeeper away, Guang Ling looked at Yue Guan with a grin. "Old Chrysanthemum, you're pretty wild, huh."
