107: : A group of thugs
"Master, in this area, there are several others as strong as me. Their strength is not weaker than mine. Taking them under your wing would definitely be a great help to you!"
The Bloodthirsty Mantis leaped continuously through the jungle, with Lin Wu riding on his back.
Little Gold was in the Mental Energy barrier nearby.
"Little bug, don't you dare lie to my Master, or I will never let you go!"
"Don't worry, I'm a very reliable person."
The Bloodthirsty Mantis's speed was incredibly fast, reaching ten times the speed of sound without using his full power.
Of course, this was a short burst, not sustained running like other animals.
Watching the Bloodthirsty Mantis, who had already done a complete face-heel turn.
Lin Wu found it amusing.
This guy didn't hesitate at all when changing his tune.
Upon hearing that he could improve his Realm, he almost instantly prostrated himself, without the slightest hesitation.
The Bloodthirsty Mantis was also extremely satisfied, his heart blooming with joy. What did it matter if he served someone diligently if he could improve his Realm?
No!
He should be called Master now!
After Star Beasts developed their physical limits to the extreme, they could only improve their Realm by devouring their own kind.
However, under normal circumstances, how could they easily kill a Star Beast of similar strength?
So, the common situation was mutual prolonged battles.
Only with good Opportunity could one devour the opponent.
"Hehehe, I didn't expect such an unexpected harvest today. From now on, I won't have to fight to the death for food."
"This isn't my Master, this is simply my living Bodhisattva."
"And those few sworn enemies, if only Master would take them in..."
"Then I'd be their big brother!"
"Awesome, so awesome!"
The Bloodthirsty Mantis had a purely 'old fox' personality.
After all, mantises rely on sneak attacks and don't engage in direct combat, so having this personality was very normal.
One Master, two pets.
They continuously approached their destination... A few minutes later.
They encountered another Star Beast.
Its name was Mountain-Breaking Demonic Bull.
This Star Beast resembled a rhinoceros.
His strength was not much worse than the Bloodthirsty Mantis, but his temper was extremely stubborn.
"Hey, hey, hey, you're as stubborn as ever. If you keep this up, do you believe my Master will chop you to death with one strike?"
The Bloodthirsty Mantis was still arrogant by his side.
At this moment, he was already ecstatic. This Mountain-Breaking Demonic Bull had ruined so many of his good deeds in the past.
Today, he could not only get revenge, but if he was lucky, he could even become the leader of others.
Wasn't that awesome?
The Mountain-Breaking Demonic Bull was almost angered to death.
Actually, he wasn't unwilling to become a Beast, after all, he valued his life relatively highly.
The key was the Bloodthirsty Mantis's attitude, which infuriated him.
But he had no choice. If he didn't bow his head now, his life would truly be over.
So, he could only accept all of this gladly.
Lin Wu thus gained another Beast.
"Little Gold, Mantis, Rhino, I now have three Beasts, and I can recruit one more."
"Mantis said there's one more Star Beast I can recruit."
It must be said.
The list provided by Mantis was very good.
Firstly, there were entries of sufficient strength, even Bloodline-type entries... Secondly, their wisdom and strength were good.
"Let's go, let's find the next one."
...Another ten minutes passed.
Lin Wu found another Star Beast.
It was also a female.
Her name was Ling Yun Sparrow.
Like that eagle, she often snatched Little Gold's food and Opportunity.
The Ling Yun Sparrow could be said to be extremely quick-witted; describing her as someone who knows how to adapt to circumstances would not be an exaggeration.
Seeing that all the Star Beasts in this area had been subdued by Lin Wu.
She showed no stubbornness whatsoever, almost instantly prostrating herself like Little Gold.
She directly completed the Soul contract, becoming a Beast.
Lin Wu looked at the four Beasts before him, feeling very satisfied.
In his future Cultivation, there would undoubtedly be many things he couldn't do personally. At such times, having a Beast would make things much easier.
At the same time.
During Lin Wu's absence from Blue Star, his mother's and sister's safety could not be guaranteed.
At this point, dispatching a Beast could provide timely protection.
"If these four Beasts are used well, they can also be my capable assistants."
"Very good, very good!"
Because of the Beast Control Art, these Beasts were naturally absolutely loyal.
Lin Wu also felt relatively at ease with them.
"Alright."
"I will now explain some rules to you three."
Lin Wu cleared his throat.
The three Beasts, naturally, needed resources to be cultivated. As trusted aides, he couldn't be stingy or tight-fisted.
"Since you are absolutely loyal to me, I will not treat you unfairly. I guarantee that each of you will become a giant beast that dominates a region."
"That's a bit far off, but I will raise your Realm to the Saint-Grade within a short time."
"According to the order in which you became my Beasts, we must first help Little Gold complete his upgrade."
The Beasts had no objection whatsoever. After all, he was the first to join.
They had to follow the rule of first come, first served!
"So, the three of you will unite and hunt down the Venerable Rank Vicious Beasts nearby for me."
"I will give you some power."
Lin Wu quietly communicated with Wu Ling.
He asked Wu Ling to lend him some power.
She naturally wouldn't refuse, as she had been able to strengthen the power of Demon Mans before.
Four streams of energy emanated from Lin Wu's ring.
These were naturally True Qi.
Each Beast received the corresponding True Qi enhancement.
This enhancement was not insignificant. Although these Vicious Beasts also had Dantian, their True Qi was vastly different compared to humans.
Their power was all boosted to the Grandmaster-level limit.
They gained the ability to be invincible among their kind.
Even if they encountered harassment from a Star Radiance Realm, or Saint-Grade Vicious Beast, they could retreat unharmed.
All four Beasts showed shocked expressions.
With just a few words, their power received such a Heaven-Defying boost!
And they didn't delay at all, dispersing to carry out their task.
On the way.
They were more shocked than the last.
In their hearts, they trusted their Master even more.
Originally, it was out of fear of his might, but now it was genuine admiration and conviction.
Lin Wu, meanwhile, sat cross-legged on the ground, beginning to focus on Cultivating the Beast Control Art.
The Spirit Beast Space had to be opened.
Otherwise, there would be no place for the four Beasts.
Although they could be placed in the ring, the efficiency was still somewhat low.
Once he had the Spirit Beast Space, the Beasts could recuperate inside, whereas the ring-battleship did not have this effect.
Lin Wu put all his energy into Cultivation.
In his previous Cultivation.
The Beast Control Art had already reached the Minor Achievement Realm.
In the next few hours.
If he could reach the Major Achievement Realm in one go.
Then that would be very good.
Lin Wu continuously Cultivated, and the four Beasts continuously piled up various Star Beast corpses.
Little Gold used to be very kind, but now that he had become Lin Wu's Beast.
That trait effect was directly nullified.
He also became a ruthless killer.
