Yi Feng brought Shen Ying all the way into the Mirage Sea. Although he did not know why she insisted on standing on his sword, she was a guest. Yi Feng could not say much even though he was confused, so he began to introduce the Mirage Sea.
"Sect Master Shen, this is the Mirage Sea." He pointed to the endless sea and said, "Because of the Yi Family, there are not many spirit beasts at the edge of the Mirage Sea. Once we pass the Thousand Islands, there will be more."
Shen Ying nodded. Indeed, after a while, a large number of islands appeared in front of them, covering the sea. The area of the islands was very small. Some looked like stone blocks that were only a few square meters. Yi Feng had no intention of staying here. After a brief introduction, he flew over. After flying for about an hour, the number of islands decreased. They could only see one every few minutes, and the area was very wide.
Just like he said, there were spirit beasts on the islands. Some were in groups of three to five, some were in groups of hundreds. Most of them appeared on the islands, but one would jump out of the water from time to time. Every one of them was very large, and they could be seen from afar.
"I met my Roaring Lion Beast on that island." Yi Feng pointed to a large island on the right.
"That cat?" Shen Ying turned to look at him.
Yi Feng was stunned. He thought that she thought the Roaring Lion Beast was small, so he explained, "The Roaring Lion Beast is a tenth-level spirit beast. It can change its size. Sect Master Shen did not see its true body that day. In fact, it is more than ten times bigger than that."
"Oh." She nodded.
Thinking of his contracted beast, Yi Feng could not help but feel a little sad. He did not say anything else. He glanced at the island and continued forward on his sword. After flying for about half an hour, they finally stopped on an island with a lush forest.
"Let's start searching from here." He flew down and pointed to the forest. "The Spirit Qi here is very thick. There should be spirit beasts above the tenth-level."
"Okay." Shen Ying did not have any objections.
Yi Feng immediately took out a pile of array flags and dharma talismans. "I have a metal spirit root, so I want to find a spirit beast of other elements. Sect Master Shen, do you want to find a spirit beast of the same element?"
"Yes!" She nodded.
"Do you have any requests?"
A huge ball of fur flashed across Shen Ying's mind. "Something bigger, something whiter?" Something tastier.
"Bai?" Yi Feng was stunned for a moment. He glanced at her and immediately understood. Sect Leader Shen was a lady after all. It was understandable that she would want to find some good-looking Spirit Beasts.
"I have already prepared the array talismans and Dharma artifacts. Which one is Sect Master Shen best at?"
"Ah?" What does that mean?
"The spirit beasts here are very dangerous. It's better to be prepared." Yi Feng raised the items in his hands and explained, "These can be used as support. I wonder which part of the Beast Taming Skill Master Shen is more proficient in?"
"Are there … many items?" Didn't he just have to catch them?
"Of course." When it came to his profession, he blurted it out as if he was reciting from a book. "The art of taming beasts, from tracking, aura observation, channeling, formation, to the later, showing off, forming seals, and even the final contract. Not a single one can be omitted."
"Uh …" Is it that complicated? In the past, rabbits only needed to be beaten up. As expected, demons and beasts were small animals with different systems.
"I see that the Spirit Beasts in the sect are very sensitive to Sect Leader Shen's aura. You must be proficient in tracking and aura observation?"
"Uh … I don't."
"What about controlling the array?"
"No."
"What about showing off and forming seals with spirit beasts?"
"I've never learned that."
"Then forming a contract …"
"Forming what?"
Yi Feng stiffened: "…"
Then what exactly do you know? Are you really here to help?

He suddenly doubted his decision to invite her to catch Spirit Beasts.
Roar …
Just as he was thinking about it, a loud roar came from not far away. It sounded like thunder, and it woke Yi Feng from his petrified state.
"This sound, could it be … a Cloud-Bearing Beast!" His eyes widened and his face paled. He quickly turned to Shen Ying and said, "We can't stay here. The ground might be …"
Before he could finish speaking, the ground suddenly moved. The island began to shake violently. His body sank and the entire ground began to rise. Everywhere he looked, there was the sound of trees falling and rocks rolling down. The ground beneath his feet also began to crack. It was as if the ground was sliding down.
"Head to the left." Yi Feng steadied himself and flew up on his sword. He turned to Shen Ying and reminded her.
Shen Ying glanced at the rocks that littered the mountains. With a tap of her foot, she leaped in the direction that Yi Feng had pointed out. Instantly, she flew high into the air and landed accurately on the southeast side of the island before Yi Feng did.
Looking back, she saw that the forest had completely collapsed. Two-thirds of the island had risen into the air. Four thick pillars appeared on the ground, and with another thunderous roar, a huge black head stretched out from two-thirds of the floating island, opening its mouth to reveal a mouthful of sharp teeth. At the same time, a row of huge spikes began to appear on the original boundary, covering the entire area.
Shen Ying raised her head to look at the beast in its entirety.
What a huge … tortoise!
It turned out that they were standing on the back of this tortoise.
"It really is a Cloud-Bearing Beast!" Yi Feng was stunned. He did not expect that the first demon beast they encountered would be a Cloud-Bearing Beast. This was too unlucky.
Cloud-Bearing Beasts were the largest spirit beasts. Adult spirit beasts were so huge that they could hide the sun from the clouds. That was why they were called Cloud-Bearing Beasts. Cloud-Bearing Beasts were short-tempered and had sensitive hearing. However, they liked silence and would go crazy if they were disturbed. That was why they were not suitable to be contracted as spirit beasts. They must have accidentally awakened it when they arrived on the island.
What was worse was that the Cloud-Bearing Beast was a thirteenth-level spirit beast. It was equivalent to a late-stage Soul Formation cultivator. In addition, spirit beasts were stronger than human cultivators of the same level.
Yi Feng felt the urge to vomit blood. If this had happened before, he would have thought that he and Sect Master Shen could take it down. But that was only if … the other party knew how to tame beasts! What should they do? Was it too late to escape?
Roar …
The Cloud-Bearing Beast roared again. Huge waves formed in the surrounding water, forming a semicircle that enveloped half of the island.
Shit! There was no way to escape.
Yi Feng hurriedly made a hand seal and set up an array core. Then, he summoned the spirit sword and said in a low voice, "Sect Master Shen, this beast cannot be contracted. I will try to see if I can force it to sleep. Please help me guard this array core."
"Oh, okay!" She nodded vigorously. "All the best!"
Only then did he fly out. As he flew above the gigantic beast, he formed a seal with both hands. Suddenly, vines as thick as a human's appeared on the ground. They wrapped themselves around the Cloud-Bearing Beast.
Shen Ying glanced at the glowing array beneath her feet. Guarding the eye of the array meant … that the tortoise would not be able to touch it, right?
(̄ △ ̄;)
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard a cracking sound in front of her. Yi Feng's vines could not hold the gigantic Cloud-Bearing Beast in place. They began to break apart. The beast's mouth, full of sharp teeth, turned and bit towards the sky.
As it turned, the four sturdy legs of the pillar moved with it. Coincidentally, they moved towards the array formation. Shen Ying frowned and slapped it. Didn't you say you can't touch it?!
