Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 1371 - 561: Possession Type! Feedback from the Eye of Annihilation!

The next moment, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Su Ping closed his eyes, grabbed the Sea King Yaksha’s arm, and began to knead it. An indescribable rhythm in his movements caused Meng Yao and Zhu Hong to exchange bewildered glances.

They wondered what on earth this kid was doing and how he had mastered such an incredibly bizarre technique that somehow inexplicably felt reasonable. They couldn’t figure it out at all.

Fortunately, Su Ping’s actions did not last for too long. Half an hour later, he slowly released his grip. As everyone looked at the arm once more, they were slightly taken aback. In truth, there were no noticeable changes to the arm. The only difference was a strange, albeit inconspicuous, bulge on the back of the hand.

However, for some unknown reason, this severed arm now gave the three people present an indescribable feeling. Before this, the arm had just been a dismembered limb. Even though it contained immense Water Element Ability, it remained a piece of a corpse. That lifeless, deathly aura was unmistakable.

But now, this arm—which by all rights should still be a dead object—bizarrely exuded a trace of brimming vitality. If they spoke of this feeling, probably no one would believe them. How could a mere severed arm give off such an illusion? Yet, that was exactly the case right now.

Therefore, the moment Su Ping opened his eyes, Meng Yao and Zhu Hong, who had long grown impatient, immediately asked, "Su Ping, what exactly is the meaning of this? What are you trying to breed out of it?"

Su Ping was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, after observing the arm for quite a while, he looked at Meng Yao beside him. "Senior Ray Saint, I’d like to ask for your help!"

"Just say it."

"Please guide your Soul Perception Power through this arm, and merge your Soul Breath into the Soul Core at the back of its hand."

"Huh?" Meng Yao was slightly stunned, but he complied anyway. It would only waste a bit of Soul Power, which could easily be replenished and restored with a little meditation or by consuming some relevant resources. Naturally, it was nothing to worry about.

Picking up the arm, Meng Yao closed his eyes. A wisp of his consciousness slowly extended into the arm, intertwining his Soul Power with it. Five minutes later, Meng Yao opened his eyes in sheer amazement.

"Su Ping, the inside of this arm..." Meeting Su Ping’s smile, Meng Yao still looked as if he hadn’t fully recovered from his shock.

Zhu Hong, on the other hand, was incredibly anxious. "Meng Yao, what exactly is going on?"

Only then did Meng Yao speak up. "The inside of this arm is actually like a living creature! Its Energy is enough to form a complete self-circulation. Although it lacks facial features and the typical organs of Pet Beasts, as a mere arm, it perfectly matches the anchor point for condensing the soul body of an Elemental Type or Undead Series living being. It is safe to say that if it weren’t for the fact that this thing hasn’t developed intelligence and self-awareness yet, and its soul has only just condensed—while also seemingly lacking any growth potential—it would simply be a brand-new Living Being!"

"Ah?" Zhu Hong blinked. Then, he looked at Su Ping in bewilderment and uncertainty. He seemed to suddenly understand what Su Ping was planning to do, but he couldn’t believe it. After all, this was truly far too incredible.

Even as a Breeding Master of the Elemental Series who enjoyed immense renown in the Dragon Nation and even across the entire Blue Star, he had never imagined that such a day would come, nor had he ever harbored such an unfathomable idea. But if not for this idea, he really couldn’t imagine what on earth this guy, Su Ping, was trying to achieve.

Thus, after pondering for a moment, he asked tentatively, "Su Ping, are you trying to attempt the Breeding of a brand-new Pet Beast type?"

Su Ping nodded, finally no longer hiding his ambition.

As soon as these words came out, the initially excited Zhu Hong seemed to frown slightly, lowering his head deep in thought. Meanwhile, Meng Yao, who hadn’t understood earlier, suddenly widened his eyes. "What? A new Pet Beast type? In this day and age, what brand-new Pet Beast type could possibly emerge?"

This question was also Zhu Hong’s question.

"Su Ping, what kind of form will this new type of Pet Beast you envision take? You must know that a completely new Pet Beast type isn’t just about changing its outward appearance. Even though this Sea King Yaksha’s arm is indeed peculiar, generally speaking, within the cognition of Beastmasters worldwide, the most important aspect of a brand-new type is its combat style and a completely unprecedented breeding direction for a new species!

"For example, Mechanical Type Pet Beasts are exactly like this. The Breeding and combat methods of Mechanical Type Pet Beasts represent an entirely new track. Only then can it be considered..."

Clearly, Zhu Hong’s emotions were complicated. Of course, this complexity did not include any negative feelings like jealousy. The main source of his complicated mood was that he couldn’t wait for Su Ping to actually produce such results, yet he was also deeply afraid that Su Ping didn’t realize what pioneering a new type track truly meant, which might lead to nothing but empty joy.

Meeting Zhu Hong’s earnest and hopeful gaze, Su Ping also became cautious this time. He thought for a moment before replying, "I don’t know the specifics of whether it will succeed, but it is definitely worth a try. As for what comes next, we’ll have to see in a few days."

"In a few days?"

"Yes! Regardless, we still have to take the first step! First and foremost, we must let the lifeform take shape!" Su Ping nodded. Three days. That was his estimated time.

Even though he had fully mastered the Paperman Record and gained a tremendous command over soul rules, even if he were to Promote to Myth, it would still be impossible to create a fully alive Living Being in a mere half an hour relying solely on a single Soul Crystal. That was just unreasonable.

Therefore, it would take three days. Three days to allow this Yaksha King’s arm to complete its life-forming process and give birth to a certain level of basic Soul Consciousness and self-intelligence.

With this in mind, Su Ping quickly glanced around. As a Water Element Breeding laboratory, Zhu Hong’s place naturally had plenty of resources left over. Su Ping picked up a large basin and filled it with a substantial amount of Monarch Level resources: Agarwood Water and Life Water. Then, just like usual, he soaked a significant amount of Soul Crystal powder into the mixture before taking out a stack of Soul-Settling Paper to cover it up, completely sealing the Sea King Yaksha’s arm within the pool of liquid.

After doing all this, Su Ping let out a long breath.

Whether it succeeded or not, he had to take it one step at a time regardless. For this first attempt of his, he had used the arm of a Spirit Saint Level Ferocious Beast. If a problem occurred in the very first step leading to failure, it wouldn’t just mean ruined materials. More likely, it would be a severe blow to his confidence and force him into a long, arduous process of finding out what went wrong.

However, if this casual attempt sparked by a flash of inspiration actually succeeded, it would naturally be a cause for great joy. But once it failed, Su Ping wouldn’t have that much time and energy to overly research this illusory Breeding.

Thus, Su Ping looked at Jiao Ji. "Senior Water Venerable, I’ve kept you waiting. I’ll go have some breakfast, then examine your condition before arranging your treatment!"

Just as Su Ping said, having found the cause of Jiao Ji’s illness, treating her was actually not a difficult task for someone like him who possessed immense mastery over the soul. However, beyond the treatment itself, what was more important was that Jiao Ji’s condition most likely involved some of Su Ping’s ideas regarding this envisioned brand-new type of Pet Beast!

Having waited this long, waiting a little longer wouldn’t make a difference. Jiao Ji nodded. Only then did Su Ping head to the cafeteria of the Heart of Myriad Spirits with Meng Yao and Zhu Hong.

However, the moment he sat down, Su Ping’s body suddenly stiffened. Because right at that moment, the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas suddenly provided feedback with a prompt he hadn’t expected:

[Critical Breeding achievement progress obtained! A breakthrough has occurred in the second Evolution method for the Pet Beast ’Eye Demon’ Evolutionary Body form ’Eye of Annihilation’. Perfecting this second Breeding Method will reduce the required Universal Experience Points by 10,000. Currently, 10,000 Universal Experience Points are required to forcibly perfect the second Evolution method for the Eye of Annihilation!]

Upon seeing this feedback, Su Ping froze in place. Then, a smile crept onto his face. He now understood what was different about this second Evolution method for the Eye of Annihilation.

His idea was correct. The Possession Type was truly viable.
