Searching for Qimeng Haige
"Can't be tamed!"
Zhang Xuezhou practiced his mind-controlling beast-manipulation techniques extensively in Zhu Liangping's beast factory.
This technique has requirements for both spiritual realm and Law Power; the deeper one's Law Power and spiritual realm, the more likely one is to subdue and control beasts.
However, after Zhang Xuezhou continued to provoke him, his attempts to unleash the Soul-Stirring Beast Control Technique repeatedly failed.
"The ferocious beast has a resistance layer and is no longer paying attention to my little tricks!"
Inside the hold of the ocean-going cargo ship, Zhang Xuezhou withdrew his hand from the alloy cage.
The Soul-Stirring Beast Control Technique is clearly no match for the Supreme Purity True Technique. Zhang Xuezhou can heal ferocious beasts, but he cannot control them.
A slight difference in skill level can create an insurmountable gap, which is why he repeatedly failed to control his beasts.
Zhang Xuezhou didn't say it was because his Technique Method were insufficient; he just made up an excuse on the spot.
"The resistance layer has too many effects; even my Divine Grace healing is barely affecting the ferocious beast!"
Ren Anran, standing next to Zhang Xuezhou, added the same comment.
Ren Anran wasn't lying; it was simply that her Supreme Purity True Technique was indeed difficult to heal the wounds inflicted by ferocious beasts.
The ferocious beast possesses a resistance layer. This resistance layer is not only present on the beast's exterior, but also exists in every part of its body, including its skin, flesh, and bones, protecting every part of its body like a shell.
To heal the wounds of a ferocious beast, one needs Technique Method that can erode every layer of the body's resistance, thereby bringing about rapid healing.
Ren Anran had not yet reached the Divine Ability Realm, and her level of Technique Method was also inferior to Zhang Xuezhou's, making it difficult for her to provide effective treatment.
Within Ren Anran's treatment scope, she could only treat the injuries of regular Sixth Sequence individuals, and she could also provide normal treatment to Zhou Rihui, who was in the Fifth Sequence. However, once Zhou Rihui reached the Sixth Sequence, the corresponding amount of treatment was significantly reduced.
Knowing her own limits, Ren Anran was also well aware of the shortcomings in Zhang Xuezhou's Technique Method.
What should we do?
Zuo Lianguang went from being overjoyed to being deeply worried, feeling extremely anxious and uncertain.
Having finally hunted a ferocious beast that might match his Gene Sequence, Zuo Lianguang felt that it would be a tragedy if this beast, with its volatile temperament, died on a cargo ship, making it impossible to refine the beast extract after returning to Western Capital City.
"If we had come to Qinmeng to hunt ten years earlier, things would have been much easier to resolve!"
Changkong Luo sighed.
Many people in the Old Age Mansion pursue longevity, not the Seventh Sequence.
The group only came to Alliance Island during the international conflict and then did some things along the way; they would not stay in the Qinmeng area for long to fight to the death.
For many, the challenges of advanced age will continue indefinitely.
They can only have a burst of energy for a period of time, and after that, they need to recuperate and rest to avoid physical and mental decline, or even falling into a state of confusion in their old age.
This balance is extremely difficult to strike, so the only option left is to act as quickly as possible.
In a sense, hunting a ferocious beast is already a great achievement, but this beast came a little too early.
They are currently on the outskirts of Qinmeng, or even just wandering around the entrance at Huli Port. It is not yet time to return to Western Capital City.
On one hand, they couldn't hunt in Qinmeng for too long, and the opportunities to hunt in Qinmeng were rare. On the other hand, this hunt had only lasted two days, and everyone hadn't even finished warming up. They also wanted to press their advantage and seek more results, so they couldn't end this hunting trip immediately.
However, these ferocious beasts are not valuables; once captured, these special creatures have a certain probability of dying.
Zuo Lianguang's anxiety and fear of loss are not hard to understand, and Changkong Luo could only try his best to comfort him.
"We need to finish this hunt as quickly as possible," Zuo Lianguang said through gritted teeth. "We can't just find ferocious beasts whenever we want. If this beast dies on the way, we'll get nothing!"
"Zhang Xuezhou isn't even in a hurry for the materials for Tuer Shen'en, what are you in such a rush for?" Song Jiangtao scolded.
"He's not in a hurry because he's tamed the beast; his beast won't die," Zuo Lianguang said anxiously.
"If you're so capable, why don't you tame this beast yourself?" Song Jiangtao cursed. "You've only been here two days and you already want to rush back? Do you think this boat belongs to you?"
"If we go back now, it will take a month for the round trip, which is a lot of time spent on travel," Zhong Rang frowned. "It's not that we don't want to send the ferocious beast back to Western Capital City, but it's too much trouble for us to make the round trip!"
"If we set a precedent by catching just one ferocious beast and returning to Western Capital City, we'll have to follow this rule every time we hunt again," Li Qi said. "No one can withstand all that back and forth!"
"Can we split up and get the ocean-going cargo ship back to port first...?"
What if we encounter another ferocious beast in the next few days?
"Ferocious beasts aren't so easy to hunt. We might not see a single one for the next ten days or half a month!"
"Without the ability to prolong our lives and break through to the Seventh Sequence, we won't have much time to hunt here!"
"We old men are like men who have sex; once our bodies have an ordeal, it takes a year or two to recover. If we can't change our current situation, it will be very difficult to bring so many people to Qinmeng in the future."
The first ferocious beast brought shock and surprise, and the extremely high compatibility made it difficult for Zuo Lianguang to calm down.
However, this ferocious beast has also sparked various controversies.
On one side is a journey from which it is difficult to turn back; on the other side are elderly people who lack time and physical strength; and on yet another side is the uncertainty of hunting ferocious beasts.
"There's no need to worry so much," Ren Yisheng finally reassured everyone. "I've heard that Qimeng Haig used to live in Huli Port. He knows a lot about Qinmeng and is likely familiar with the recent activities of the ferocious beasts in Qinmeng. If we can find him, our chances of hunting the beasts should increase significantly!"
"That old devil Chimon Hagrid is on the run everywhere, can we find him?"
"I heard he has an underground laboratory; surely he wouldn't abandon that too!"
Even if he's not here for a while, as long as he still cares about his territory, he'll definitely come back!
Ren Yisheng proposed a solution to the problem, which also sparked much discussion among the crowd, Zuo Lianguang's expression improved considerably.
Ren Yisheng and Zhang Xuezhou wanted to find Zuo Teng, but apart from the two of them, no one believed that Zuo Teng could bring any benefits. This led them to look for Chimon Haig, hoping to find Zuo Teng through Chimon Haig.
Once a connection is successfully made, many problems can be resolved.
"This ferocious beast is healthy and uninjured. Those beasts that were beaten half to death were able to be transported back alive, so it'll definitely live a long time!"
"Don't even mention it wasn't seriously injured. It only took an hour to transport this ferocious beast onto the ship. In the past, those beasts would take ten days or half a month to transport, some even two or three months. It's definitely going to survive!"
"Half of us will search for birds of prey like falcons and sparrows near Huli Port, while the other half will search for Chimon Haig in the vicinity, and try to find other types of ferocious beasts as soon as possible!"
After a brief discussion, Zuo Lianguang, seeing the ferocious beast so close at hand, had no choice but to agree.
Many others nodded in agreement, understanding that even if they managed to hunt the corresponding ferocious beast, they would still need to cooperate with the larger team.
Only by treating each other equally can their team continue to function.
The inability to cash out immediately is undoubtedly a huge gamble for everyone.
The successful hunt of the first ferocious beast did not bring relaxation or satisfaction; instead, it plunged many people into even more urgent action.
