107: Raising a pet

The Shadow Forest Cat, Iron Skin Giant Ape, and Golden Winged Giant Eagle are similar to the White Wolf King cub; they also possess considerable intelligence, so as long as they are raised from a young age, they can become close to humans.

Of course, the most important thing is that Gu Chang can sign a Spirit Pet Blood Contract with them, which not only allows him to completely control them but also accelerates their growth and enhances communication.

The relevant secret methods were found in the Beast Taming Legacy Gu Chang purchased. After taking out the Jade Slip and studying for a while, Gu Chang was able to successfully perform them.

Since these exotic beast cubs were almost all only one or two months old, they had no resistance to the Spirit Pet Blood Contract and quickly all became Gu Chang's Spirit Pets. The relationship between them and Gu Chang also became very intimate.

After signing the Blood Contract, it was time for feeding. These exotic beast cubs all eat meat.

Although ordinary meat can fill their stomachs, if you want them to grow more smoothly and powerfully, it is best to provide barbarian beef.

“Fortunately, these guys only need to eat meat; otherwise, just raising them would be a hassle.”

“However, keeping them in my room isn't suitable. It seems I'll have to build an additional wooden house next.”

After feeding these guys, all the exotic beast cubs immediately became much quieter, neither noisy nor crying, obediently lying there sleeping.

However, after thinking carefully, Gu Chang became busy again, and soon a wooden house specially built for these exotic beast cubs was made by Gu Chang.

It can only be said that fortunately, the Flying Sword was sharp enough, and the Martial Dao Body's strength was sufficient, making these simple tasks very easy.

The only troublesome thing was the Materials, but this only required a trip to a nearby Island with trees.

“Come here! From today onwards, you all are to stay obediently on this Island!”

Once the wooden house was built, Gu Chang directly called over the White Wolf King cub and the other exotic beast cubs.

After signing the Blood Contract with Gu Chang, these guys could basically understand his commands.

It's just that they are still relatively small and have little actual combat power; at the very least, they will only become adults after two or three years.

Gu Chang can wait that long; after all, once they mature, Gu Chang will effectively have seven powerful enforcers!

“Woo woo woo~”

“Awoo~ Awoo~”

“Chirp chirp!”

“Hiss~ Hiss~”

Upon hearing Gu Chang's command, these exotic beast cubs immediately responded, but their mental fluctuations, transmitted to Gu Chang's mind, were still full of childish responses. To make them truly obedient and follow commands strictly, training was necessary.

Subsequently, Gu Chang immediately began some simple training for all the exotic beast cubs, letting them know exactly what they could and could not do.

After a good deal of busy work, Gu Chang finally made proper arrangements. From now on, he only needed to repeat it a few times each day, and over time, these exotic beast cubs would become obedient.

“Phew~ Next, I'll continue to study Formations, draw Talismans, and Cultivate without falling behind!”

“I'll strive to increase my strength even more before they grow up, and then choose a suitable Spirit Island to start taking action!”

Looking at the exotic beast cubs, who were tired from training and had started to snore loudly, Gu Chang suddenly revealed a smile of anticipation.

Thus, on this originally inconspicuous Island, Gu Chang gradually established himself.

He now divides his time into five main parts: during his free time in the day, he feeds the exotic beast cubs and conducts some basic training.

The vast majority of the remaining time is used for Cultivation, drawing Talismans, and studying Formations. In the evening, he enters the Reincarnation World to utilize the time difference to study Formations, True Qi Talismans, and explore this Reincarnation World.

Two or three days later, the original Island was enveloped by a layer of mist. With Gu Chang's current research into Formations, he was already able to set up the Small Water Mist Refining Formation he had purchased.

With the protection and concealment of this Formation, his level of safety was once again elevated.

“Currently, I am quite familiar with those three Low Grade First-Order Formations. However, the difficulty of the Dao of Formation increases exponentially with each small improvement.”

“The complexity of this Medium Grade First-Order Small Water Mist Refining Formation is more than ten times greater than that of a Low Grade First-Order Formation. I really don't know how difficult a High Grade First-Order or Second-Order Formation would be?”

Looking at the Formation he had completed, Gu Chang couldn't help but sigh. The Dao of Formation is indeed incredibly profound, but the rewards obtained just by getting started are also immense!

“With the Formation guarding it, I can now Cultivate here with peace of mind. With this Formation in place, even a Late Stage Qi Refining Cultivator would find it difficult to break through, and ordinary people would not even be able to discover the existence of this Island.”

After muttering a few words, Gu Chang turned and returned to his wooden house.

“Woo woo~”

Seeing him approach, the White Wolf King cub, the Shadow Forest Cat, and the Iron Skin Giant Ape, these three lively exotic beast cubs, immediately gathered around him.

“All of you, stay obediently on the Island. Don't run around in the fog for no reason.”

Gu Chang patted the head of the smartest Iron Skin Giant Ape cub. Although it was only a little over two months old, its size was already close to that of an adult human.

“Woo woo!”

Due to the Spirit Pet Blood Contract, it understood Gu Chang's command only partially, but it still let out a strange cry and agreed.

“Take this and eat!”

Seeing how obedient it was, Gu Chang directly gave it a large piece of cooked barbarian beef, which immediately caused a commotion among the three exotic beast cubs.

Returning to the wooden house, Gu Chang adjusted his mindset and then began to draw High Grade First-Order Talismans.

He moved his brush like a Dragon, almost in one go, and successfully drew a Small Thunder Talisman. However, drawing a High Grade First-Order Talisman with his current cultivation was clearly still somewhat stressful. After drawing this Talisman, a fine layer of sweat involuntarily appeared on his forehead.

“My Immortal Dao strength is still a bit lacking. Drawing one Small Thunder Talisman at Qi Refining Fourth Stage cultivation almost depleted my magical power.”

After putting away the Talisman, Gu Chang immediately began to meditate and Cultivate. After a long while, his magical power was finally replenished to Perfection.

“Phew~ Drawing High Grade First-Order Talismans with my current strength is still a bit strenuous!”

“Next, I should still focus on Medium Grade First-Order Talismans. After all, with my strength, I don't need the Small Thunder Talisman as a trump card, and Talismans of this level are not easy for me to sell with my current strength.”

Gu Chang's research into First-Order Talismans is already quite profound. Now, as long as he is properly prepared, there is almost no possibility of failure in drawing them.

After all, he had poured a lot of effort into Talismans in the Reincarnation World; decades of continuous research definitely far surpass ordinary Talisman Masters.

When he got up, he realized that it was already dark outside, so after feeding the exotic beast cubs, Gu Chang directly entered the Reincarnation World.

“In the Dao of Formation, I have currently mastered three Low Grade First-Order Formations: the Small Wutu Formation, whose main function is to enhance defensive capabilities and, to a certain extent, alter terrain.”

“Then there's the Small Gengjin Formation, whose main function is to enhance attack power and can also add a touch of Gengjin Qi to weapons, making them sharper.”

“Finally, there's the Small Yimu Formation. Although it has some plant manipulation effects, its greatest function is actually healing and providing vitality. Long-term residence within this Formation helps with longevity.”
