Incredible Sect Simulator

"I'd like to go easy on it, but it's too stubborn and won't yield. I even want to end it with a sword!"

Complaining a bit, Lu Changfeng was not rash, knowing his limits.

This Cloud-Stepping Beast King, with cultivation reaching the Eighth-Layer Qi Cultivation, once tamed successfully, its strength would be superior to those disciples and could better transport materials for the Cyan Mountain Sect.

The Cloud-Stepping Beast Group also needs it to lead.

"Grand Elder, you keep it tied, I'll handle it."

With a call, Lu Xuelian wanted to step forward to temporarily subdue the Cloud-Stepping Beast King, first bringing it back to the Cyan Mountain Sect, and then find ways to tame it later.

Hearing this, Lu Changfeng tightened the Cloud-Binding Net, binding the Cloud-Stepping Beast King firmly.

Lu Xuelian carefully approached, casting a Beast Control Technique at the Cloud-Stepping Beast King, which temporarily controlled it, preventing it from using magical power for attacks.

Taking this chance, Lu Xuelian pinched her fingers to form a seal, took out a Tier One Middle Grade Beast Control Talisman, and applied it on the beast.

The Beast Control Talisman is a must-have talisman for beast tamers, used to temporarily immobilize spirit beasts or demon beasts, akin to the effect of an anesthetic.

In theory, dealing with the Cloud-Stepping Beast King requires a Tier One High-Grade Beast Control Talisman, given that its cultivation reached the Eighth-Layer Qi Cultivation.

A Tier One Middle Grade Beast Control Talisman can only deal with targets ranging from Fourth-Layer to Sixth-Layer Qi Cultivation.

But within the Cyan Mountain Sect, there aren't any Tier One High-Grade Beast Control Talismans, which is a shortcoming.

"Can the Tier One Middle Grade Beast Control Talisman really control it?"

Although Lu Changfeng didn't understand the Path of Beast Taming, he knew how these talismans worked.

"I'll just give it a try."

Lu Xuelian chuckled bitterly: "If it doesn't work, I'll use more. I've brought plenty."

With that, ignoring the still struggling Cloud-Stepping Beast King, Lu Xuelian stroked her Storage Bag and took out three more Beast Control Talismans, using them one by one on the beast.

The nature of the Cloud-Stepping Beast King remained very fierce; even with four Beast Control Talismans applied, it still showed no signs of complete control, still able to move and make noise.

This made Lu Changfeng a bit impatient.

"Seeing it so defiant, I might as well slay it with a sword. Skin it, extract its tendons, and take its flesh and blood back."

"I've never tasted Cloud-Stepping Beast meat before, and I wonder what flavor it has and what effects it brings."

As these words fell, Lu Xuelian was a bit taken aback.

She was about to say that they couldn't kill it, when the Cloud-Stepping Beast King suddenly quieted down.

Being able to reach this level, leading the beast group naturally means it can understand human language.

The Cloud-Stepping Beast itself has been tamed by the human race for thousands of years, its bloodline inheriting the genes to understand human language, enabling it to comprehend most human speech.

Upon hearing Lu Changfeng's words, it immediately became a bit panicked.

"Eh, why has it stopped fussing? Did it understand what I said?"

Seeing the Cloud-Stepping Beast King calm down, Lu Changfeng exclaimed in surprise, "Did the Beast Control Talisman really work?"

"Perhaps."

Lu Xuelian didn't know what the situation was.

"This makes it convenient for us to take it back."

"Yes, then let's not delay, let's toss it onto the Flying Ship!"

...

Once the dragon boat transported the Cloud-Stepping Beast Group back to the Cyan Mountain Sect, Lu Ping saw a system dialogue box appear before him.

[Doorway Affairs: Successfully captured the north-migrating Cloud-Stepping Beast Group on the Luo River Plain, affair completed]

[Completion Reward: Reputation 399, Tier Two Beast Taming Manual ×1]

...

First came the completion reminder for Doorway Affairs.

Then, came another dialogue box.

[Cloud-Stepping Beast: Tier One High-Grade Spirit Beast]

[Estimated Income: -190 Spirit Stone/year (Not yet tamed, expected to be tamed in three months, beginning to generate revenue)]

This is the resource detail of the Cloud-Stepping Beast.

After capturing it back, the system automatically calculated the Cloud-Stepping Beast as a sect resource.

Seeing the estimated income displayed as negative, Lu Ping was a bit stunned.

They've captured the Cloud-Stepping Beast, but the result is not only not making money for the sect but also losing money on breeding.

However, thinking it over carefully, the result is to be expected.

On the market, renting a Cloud-Stepping Beast for three months costs two Spirit Stones, not a high profit.

Lu Ping didn't want to rent out this batch of Cloud-Stepping Beasts externally; all were to be used to serve the Cyan Mountain Sect.

Since it's not meant to generate Spirit Stones, the annual profit was irrelevant.

In early taming and breeding, buying feed, building shelters, etc., all require Spirit Stone expenditure in many areas.

Spending 190 Spirit Stones is quite minimal.

For the current Cyan Mountain Sect, this Spirit Stone expenditure is insignificant.

If they really wanted to generate income, selling a mature male Cloud-Stepping Beast could earn about five hundred Spirit Stones.

A mature female Cloud-Stepping Beast would be worth more, reaching around nine hundred Spirit Stones.

There's profit to be made from selling this batch of Cloud-Stepping Beasts.

In fact, while Lu Ping pondered over the matter of the Cloud-Stepping Beasts, Lu Yuanshan and Lu Zhiwei also emerged to respond to this group of beasts.

Seeing the Cloud-Stepping Beasts safely captured back, Lu Yuanshan was very happy, examining them in circles.

According to his plan, not a single one of these Cloud-Stepping Beasts would be sold; all would be kept in the sect as sect spirit beasts.

Upon learning that his eldest son had a similar idea, Lu Ping stayed silent.

That's the way to go!

Additionally, in the affair rewards, there was that scroll of 'Tier Two Beast Taming Manual,' which Lu Ping checked.

It recorded the taming and breeding methods for various commonly seen Tier One, Tier Two spirit beasts on the market.

The taming and breeding of Cloud-Stepping Beasts were also documented within.

Without much thought, Lu Ping materialized the Beast Taming Manual, letting Lu Yuanshan pass it to Lu Xuelian.

Being the only beast tamer in the sect, Lu Xuelian was highly regarded by Lu Ping, rightly having her use this Beast Taming Manual to tame the Cloud-Stepping Beasts.

Once the task was completed, Lu Xuelian received the Tier Two Beast Taming Manual that day and started being busy taming the Cloud-Stepping Beasts.

For taming the Cloud-Stepping Beasts, building shelters, purchasing feed, etc., these affairs need someone to handle and cannot be delayed, requiring prompt handling.

With Lu Xuelian responsible for breeding the Cloud-Stepping Beasts, all these tasks naturally fell to her.

Just right, the White Jade Bees had been tamed for over a year, and the honey produced this time reached sixteen jars.

Leaving ten jars for refining Jade Bee Pills, the remaining six jars, Lu Yuanshan planned to take to Qinghe Market for sale to gain some revenue for the sect.

According to Lu Yuanshan's plan, in the next period, they plan to store more Spirit Stones and find ways to procure Foundation Establishment Pills.

As the breeder of the White Jade Bees and the only beast tamer in the sect, managing the honey and selling it also fell upon Lu Xuelian.
