One was unreachable while the other was close at hand.
Lin Jin couldn't let go of the unreachable one but that didn't stop him from getting what was right in front of him. After making up his mind, Lin Jin expressed his desire to broaden his horizons with Zuo Men and Huangshi.
Zuo Men and Huangshi were more than happy to oblige.
They hit it off with Lin Jin. Although they hadn't known each other for long, they could already be considered friends.
Since they were friends, there was no need to hold back.
"When we get to the spirit pond later, there might be a fight. It's best if we can avoid it but we should be prepared," Huangshi said before turning to Han Xiong. Huang Shi said, then looked at Han Xiong, "Left gate, your Han Xiong is strong and is the strongest among us. However, his only flaw is his gluttony. Last time, when we went to the Three Eye Immortal Cave for treasures, it was because of his gluttony that we suffered a great loss. This time, we can't repeat the same mistake."
Zuo Men nodded at this. Then, he glanced at Han Xiong and shook his head helplessly.
"Well, I can't do anything about it. It's not just me, even the Silly Bear can't control himself. I've tried my best to control the Silly Bear's size, but the more he grows over the years, the more he eats. Fortunately, there's no shortage of food in the forest, so he won't go hungry no matter what. However, with his size, he has to eat most of the time, or else he'll starve. If the Silly Bear gets hungry, I'm afraid he won't even be able to use 10% of his usual strength."
Having said that, he sighed.
Huangshi understood the situation and shook his head helplessly as well. They had studied this matter but there was no solution.
It might seem like a simple matter of 'eating' but it had stumped the two immortals.
As Lin Jin listened on, he began to ponder on the matter.
Han Xiong's gluttony was apparent from the Museum of Deadly Beasts' appraisal results. Of course, to Lin Jin, it was just a simple problem of 'eating'. But the simpler a problem was, the more troublesome it was to solve.
This was a rare beast among immortal beasts, and its favorite thing to do was to eat. That was also one of the keys to maintaining its huge size. What the Djinling Left Gate said sounded absurd, but it was actually the truth.
If Han Xiong didn't eat well, his combat strength would be greatly reduced.
This was the common trait of a special bear like the Silly Bear, but at the same time, if its appetite was satisfied, the Silly Bear's strength would increase exponentially.
This kind of constitution, there are good and bad.
It all depended on whether he could 'satisfy' it.
In Lin Jin's opinion, it would be difficult to satisfy Han Xiong's appetite given the current circumstances. There wasn't enough food around to satisfy Han Xiong's appetite. To put it bluntly, Han Xiong was in a half-starved state most of the time.
However, Lin Jin had an idea.
He had a feed mill.
Truth be told, ever since the Museum of Deadly Beasts' feed mill opened, Lin Jin hadn't used it much. Most of the time, he didn't need to use it.
But now, against an immortal beast like the Silly Bear, the Fodder Workshop's usefulness immediately manifested itself.
There was a special type of 'beast food' produced in the feed factory. Its name was' beast food '. Its function was to satisfy the appetite of wild beasts. In other words, it was something that could fill a beast's stomach.
This type of beast food wasn't worth much so the feed mill could slowly 'produce' different types of beast food at any given time. The most basic type was already piled up in a shocking amount.
With a flip of his hand, Lin Jin revealed a few beast food pills.
Although they were called pills, they were about the size of a meatball. They were round and swarthy, seemingly inconspicuous. But if one were to take a closer sniff, one would be able to smell a unique aroma.
To humans or immortals, this aroma was extremely faint, almost indiscernible. But to beasts or immortal beasts, the aroma would definitely be overwhelming.
After all, the food in the feed mill was prepared for beasts and immortal beasts.
Sure enough, the moment Lin Jin took out the three beast food pills, the Silly Bear who had been foraging for food immediately turned its gaze over.
That pair of silly bear eyes was now staring straight at the beast food in Lin Jin's hand.
The aroma was so overwhelming that the Silly Bear couldn't stop itself.
It turned its head towards Lin Jin, its gigantic head as tall as Lin Jin. It couldn't stop its saliva from dripping down like a waterfall.
"You want some?" Lin Jin waved the beast food in his hand. The Silly Bear clearly understood and nodded.
As expected of an immortal beast. Even without forming a blood pact, it was still highly intelligent.
Djinling Dreamer and Yellowstone who were chatting and walking ahead noticed what was happening behind them. Turning around, they were stunned.
"This is …"
"Don't talk. Look at the Silly Bear. I've never seen it like this before."
"What is that in Brother Lin's hand? Why is the Silly Bear looking at it like … like … "
This question wasn't easy to answer. After all, neither Yellowstone nor Djinling Dreamer knew what beast food was.
Upon hearing their conversation, Lin Jin answered, "This is a type of beast food I refined myself. Don't underestimate it just because it's small in size. Once a wild beast enters its stomach, it can greatly increase its satiety."
Upon hearing this, Djinling Dreamer was pleasantly surprised. "There's such a treasure in this world?"
"Really? This little bit isn't even enough to fill the gaps between the Silly Bear's teeth." Yellowstone was skeptical.
Lin Jin smiled. "If you don't believe me, you can give it a try."
"Alright!"
Djinling Dreamer was the first to agree.
Truth be told, Djinling Dreamer was anxious to be with the Silly Bear every day. Just finding food for the Silly Bear took up a lot of his time.
The time spent on cultivation and improving his strength was negligible.
However, Djinling Dreamer had no other choice. Now that he had a chance to feed the Silly Bear, even if it was only a sliver of hope, Djinling Dreamer was willing to give it a try.
In his words, the Silly Bear had been with him for more than a hundred years and it probably hadn't had a full meal.
How pitiful.
Seeing that Djinling Dreamer had agreed, Lin Jin tossed the three pieces of beast food to the Silly Bear.
One was enough for most beasts and they wouldn't need to eat for at least a day. Not only could this beast food provide satiety, but it was also 'nutritionally balanced'. It was truly good stuff.
After all, it was a product of the Museum of Deadly Beasts so it had a good foundation.
Due to the Silly Bear's massive physique, Lin Jin figured one wouldn't be enough so just to be safe, he took out three. In fact, Lin Jin could take out more. Forget three, he could even take out three or even three thousand.
However, the rarer something was, the greater its value. If this thing really worked, Lin Jin wouldn't have revealed his trump card.
"Three should be enough," Lin Jin estimated.
He watched as the Silly Bear swallowed three pieces of beast food in one gulp. Then, it chewed and chewed, licking its lips. It was like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit. It didn't taste anything special.
But soon, the Silly Bear's expression changed.
