Once again sitting on the Wind Riding Boat of the Wonderful Treasure House, Yi Tian sized up his surroundings. This Jin Dan Cultivator's private boat was very spacious. There were a total of four people on the boat: the two representatives from the Gu Clan, Li Fu, and the absent-minded Yi Tian.
This trip didn't include Yi Tian in the original plan, so when they boarded the boat, the two from the Gu Clan only hesitated for a moment. Li Fu, who was standing to the side, only recognized the two. Yi Tian was a helper of the Wonderful Treasure House, so he didn't say anything.
Sitting in the cabin, Yi Tian took the initiative to greet the two Gu Clan cultivators. Gu Baichuan, on the other hand, had the demeanor of a great master. He turned his head and nodded at Yi Tian. Gu Ming, on the other hand, sized Yi Tian up and down before saying, "When the time comes, just don't drag us down."
Hearing this, Li Fu paused for a moment, while Yi Tian had an indifferent expression. After nodding his head, he didn't say anything else. After finding a place to sit down, Yi Tian carefully sized up the two from the Gu Clan. Gu Baichuan was wearing a black Daoist robe and had his hair tied up in a bun. He looked to be around forty years old, but it was said that he was much older than Li Fu.
Gu Ming was dressed like a rich young master. He looked to be in his early twenties and seemed to be in good spirits. He had heard from Li Fu that although Gu Ming's cultivation was in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, his strength was very weak. He had relied on pills to raise his cultivation. He hadn't experienced any big battles, so he was like a second generation cultivator.
After looking at them, Yi Tian remained silent. This time, he only needed to smoothly complete the mission step by step. As for what the Gu Clan thought of him, he didn't need to think about it.
The Wind Riding Boat took less than half a day to travel a few hundred kilometers. Standing in the air, the four of them looked at the Spirit Creek Cave from afar.
This time, it was necessary to enter the cave to catch the beast. The level five Monster Beast had already opened its spiritual awareness, so it would be impossible to lure it out again.
The four of them cautiously landed at the entrance of the cave. Gu Baichuan opened the spirit beast bag in his hand, revealing a group of level two Camphor Pig pups. He waved a fireball in his hand, causing the frightened pigs to flee into the cave in a panic.
Seeing Yi Tian's puzzled expression, Li Fu explained, "These Camphor Pigs are running around in the cave. They can anger the Thunder Lizard, so it will be easy to find it."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard an angry roar from inside the cave. Gu Baichuan rushed into the cave first and then shouted, "Hurry up and follow me." The four people rushed rushed in the cave Mountain Cave..
The inside of the Spirit Creek Cave was extraordinarily spacious. Moreover, there were many paths leading to the depths of the cave. Yi Tian looked around and saw that the piglets were still madly scurrying around. Deep within the cave, there was a flash of light.
Li Fu was overjoyed, "That's the Thunder Lizard spitting out lightning. We can follow the light and see where it goes."
Gu Baichuan smiled, "Let the pigs run around for a while. We'll wait for the Thunder Lizard to consume some of its spiritual power before we go." Then the three of them slowly walked into the depths of the cobweb-like tunnel.
After going deeper into the Spirit Creek Cave for a quarter of an hour, the four of them arrived at a corner not far from the light source. Yi Tian poked his head out and saw that in the deepest part of the cave, there was a space 200 feet wide. A buffalo-like Thunder Lizard was resting inside, and in front of it was a group of panic-stricken piglets.
Gu Baichuan stood at the entrance of the tunnel, constantly chasing away the pigs that were trying to escape. Every time the Thunder Lizard opened its mouth, it would spit out a white arc of lightning that would directly strike the pigs. Yi Tian smelled the fragrance of barbecued meat coming from the corner in front of him.
After ten breaths of time, there were no more boar cries coming from the front. Gu Baichuan used his divine sense to explore the cave and said, "Alright, we've consumed a lot of the Thunder Lizard's spiritual power. Now that we've surrounded it, we should have a good chance of catching it."
Then, he took out two lassos that were as thick as an arm and several darts that had been smeared with Spirit Beast Intoxication from his storage ring. He motioned for everyone to come forward and grab a few darts. When they moved, they had to avoid hitting the Thunder Lizard's vital points and hit its body with the darts.
Compared to the previous two times he had hunted a level five Monster Beast, Yi Tian felt that the difficulty this time was much higher. He couldn't attack as he pleased. Gu Baichuan took out two Thunder Pattern Stones and gave them to Li Fu. The two of them were responsible for attracting the Thunder Lizard's attention. Yi Tian and Gu Ming each held a lassos and waited for an opportunity to catch it.
After the division of labor was clear, the four of them took advantage of the fact that the Thunder Lizard hadn't recovered yet and directly walked in. After passing the corner, the four of them spread out. Gu Ming and Li Fu stood 100 feet apart, each of them holding a Thunder Pattern Stone in their hands and using their defensive spirit tools to block in front of them.
Gu Baichuan took out a bronze mirror and Li Fu took out a knife coin shaped spirit tool. The Thunder Lizard on the other side saw the uninvited guests in the cave. It opened its mouth and roared. A flash of lightning split into two and shot out towards the two of them.
The bronze mirror and knife coin formed a defensive barrier that blocked about 70% of the lightning. The remaining 30% was blocked by the Thunder Pattern Stones in their hands.
Gu Baichuan shouted, "Let's take advantage of it and attack!" The four of them directly threw their spells at the Thunder Lizard.
With one hand holding the lassos and the other casting a spell, Yi Tian circled around the Thunder Lizard and tried to attack it. Unexpectedly, the buffalo-like Thunder Lizard's movements were not proportional to its body size. With a 'bang', it jumped up from the ground and began to run inside the cave.
The cave wasn't very big to begin with. With the four of them and the Thunder Lizard running at high speed, the space became very crowded. Moreover, the Thunder Lizard didn't have any scruples like the four of them. It gradually began to squeeze in the space it could move around.
Gu Baichuan steadily guarded the exit and was able to withstand most of the attacks. Li Fu took out throwing darts and continuously shot them at the high-speed Thunder Lizard.
Gu Ming was waiting for an opportunity to attack, but his lassos missed several times. None of the darts in his hand were able to hit the Thunder Lizard. Flustered and exasperated, he repeatedly cursed and shouted at Yi Tian, "Why haven't you attacked yet? Don't just stand there!"
After flashing around several times, Yi Tian discovered that it would be very difficult to use this method to trap the Thunder Lizard's head. After observing for a while, he took out a steel wire fishing net from his storage bag. These past few days, Yi Tian had specially thought of countermeasures. This net was also prepared for emergencies.
He turned around and called out to Li Fu, "Help me block it with the net." Yi Tian threw a section of the fishing net to Li Fu, and then used a steel bolt to pin the other side to the ground. Li Fu did the same. Gu Baichuan saw everything clearly, and his hands didn't stop moving the Thunder Lizard towards the fishing net.
The level five Monster Beast had opened its spiritual wisdom. Seeing that the situation wasn't good, it resisted Gu Baichuan's spells and refused to take even half a step towards the fishing net. Gu Ming saw an opportunity and threw the lassos at the Thunder Lizard's head. He wanted to use the lassos to drag the Thunder Lizard, but who would have thought that the Thunder Lizard would open its mouth and shoot an arc of electricity at Gu Ming. He was so scared that he threw away the rope and ran to the side. Gu Baichuan was so angry that he stomped his feet.
Without waiting for the Thunder Lizard to recover, another lassos hit its neck. This time, Yi Tian took the opportunity to make a move. He shouted, "Help Gu Ming!" Yi Tian threw the fishing net to Gu Ming, and then pulled the lassos with both hands, only pulling the Thunder Lizard towards the fishing net.
After a loud roar, the Thunder Lizard opened its mouth and spat out another bolt of lightning towards Yi Tian. With a sizzling sound, a round red shield appeared in front of Yi Tian. The reflected arc of electricity burned the shield black. Some of the electricity that had missed hit Yi Tian's protective shield. After the blue light shield flashed a few times, Yi Tian increased the output of his spiritual power and stabilized the shield.
The Thunder Lizard's weakness was that there was a gap of five breaths between each attack. Therefore, the four of them took full advantage of this weakness and tightly entangled it. Gu Baichuan had already thrown three darts at the Thunder Lizard's back. Although the Spirit Beast Intoxication didn't have an immediate effect, the Thunder Lizard's movements had begun to slow down.
With a strong tug, Yi Tian pulled the Thunder Lizard's head into the fishing net. Li Fu directed Gu Ming and Gu Ming to rush forward and wrap the Thunder Lizard in the fishing net. Then, they pressed down on the four corners of the net. The Thunder Lizard's huge body was entangled in the fishing net. No matter how hard it struggled, it was still unable to escape. However, the arc of electricity in its mouth hit the fishing net, creating bursts of sparks.
Gu Baichuan took Yi Tian's lassos and tightened it around the Thunder Lizard's neck. Even when the Thunder Lizard opened its mouth, no arc of electricity came out.
Since there was nothing else for Yi Tian to do, Yi Tian and Li Fu stood to the side and began to rest.
Gu Baichuan stepped forward and took out a spirit beast ring and placed it around the Thunder Lizard's neck. Then, he bit his fingertip and dripped a drop of blood onto the spirit beast ring. Through the spirit beast ring, he used the Beast Taming Art to communicate with the Thunder Lizard. At first, the Thunder Lizard kept roaring, but as Gu Baichuan placed his palm on the lizard's head, the light gradually began to flicker, and the Thunder Lizard slowly became gentle.
On the side, Li Fu explained to Yi Tian, "Gu Baichuan relied on his cultivation advantage to forcefully subdue the Thunder Lizard through a blood contract. What he signed is a bloodline continuation contract. Like this, his Gu Family will have a fifth level spirit beast to look after. Later, he can pass the spirit beast on to Gu Ming or his other descendants."
"How does he remove it?" Yi Tian asked, puzzled.
"Only the person who used this technique has the right to remove it. Normally, the person who used this technique would have to consume a large portion of their spiritual power to succeed. Moreover, their cultivation would be restricted in the future. In the future, 30% of their spiritual power would be used to nourish the spirit beast. It seems that Gu Baichuan doesn't have much hope of advancing to the middle stage of the Gold Core realm. That's why he came up with this plan, so that the family won't have a fifth-grade spirit beast to look after it when he's not around in the future. "
At this time, Yi Tian also understood that these Golden Core Stage cultivators who had lived for hundreds of years were not easy to deal with. They had already made preparations for their own funeral.
