Mo Qi waved his hand, "Forget it, forget it. I'm not someone who nitpicks. I'll take the loss and become your disciple."
The old man had just taken his Pangu divine power with his physical body, which was definitely a display of peerless divine abilities and profound cultivation. He was truly convinced from the bottom of his heart.
Ancestor Shen's expression softened slightly, and he continued to look at him.
Mo Qi's face flushed slightly, "You want me to kowtow? Kowtowing on our first meeting, isn't that a bit too hasty?"
Ancestor Shen remained silent, still looking at him.
Mo Qi, like a stubborn pig, refused to kowtow.
Ancestor Shen suddenly smiled, "You're quite stubborn, kid. How did you survive until now?"
Mo Qi was ashamed, "Good luck, good luck!"
"It's fine if you don't kowtow, but you still have to call me Master," Ancestor Shen said, his hands behind his back.
"Mas-, Master," Mo Qi called out hesitantly. The moment the words left his lips, he felt a warmth rise in his heart, a strange sensation!
"Good," Ancestor Shen nodded. "I am Shen Zhan, the tenth-generation sect leader of the Sun Moon Sect. By becoming my disciple, you are joining the Sun Moon Sect. You must remember your position."
He then handed Mo Qi a token, "This is the Tenth Generation Sect Leader Token. It's not very useful for ordinary members of the Sun Moon Sect, but it specifically governs all sect masters and leaders." With that, his figure flickered and vanished from sight.
Mo Qi put away the token, his mind in a turmoil, his emotions surging.
I've somehow fallen into a trap, I've been tricked!
Then he thought, it's good, this will be more beneficial for saving people!
But what kind of status does the tenth-generation sect leader hold in the Sun Moon Sect?
"You haven't taught me any divine abilities yet," Mo Qi suddenly shouted into the air.
Where is the practice of a master not teaching skills? Was he calling him Master for nothing?
"I have already taught you," Shen Zhan's voice echoed from the air.
Taught me? Mo Qi was stunned.
On the other side, in the Pill Hall, everyone had gone through the process.
Most of them failed to refine any pills due to various reasons such as raw material processing and heat control!
Only a few like Jin Xichuan managed to refine a few misshapen pills.
At this moment, everyone deeply realized the pain of comparing themselves to others!
Wu Qigang looked at the pills handed over by Jin Xichuan, which were black and white and flat, and couldn't help but show a look of disdain.
Jin Xichuan felt utterly humiliated, his teeth gritted, and his hatred for Mo Qi grew by another degree.
Mo Qi returned to the tower and, with nothing else to do, refined a few explosive pills using some of the junk magical treasures he had.
It was then that he suddenly thought that the power of the Thunderclap Pills was quite good, and it would be beneficial to carry more of them.
But the materials were only available in the Sun Moon Sect. What was the use of him just guarding a recipe?
Therefore, at the appropriate time, he could make a deal with the Sun Moon Sect.
However, he couldn't go to her; she had to come to him.
The next day, Cangfeng Dieyu sent another message, summoning the disciples of the Third Hall to gather at Houxin Mountain for the art of beast taming.
Beast taming? That's something worth learning!
Mo Qi followed the others.
Upon arriving at the back mountain, the elder in charge of teaching beast taming, Yang Zhi, was already waiting. Behind him were thousands of strange and bizarre beasts.
Some had gaping mouths, some bared their fangs and claws, and some were of immense size. Upon seeing people arrive, they all let out roars and growls, their eyes filled with hostility, as if they would not rest until they had devoured them alive.
Jin Xichuan and the others, seeing this from a distance, were timid and dared not move forward.
Yang Zhi said impatiently, "Stop dawdling and hurry up. I have to go back to play cards after I'm done explaining."
Mo Qi shrugged, sighing, what was there to be afraid of, and strode forward.
Seeing this, Jin Xichuan, unwilling to be left behind, quickly followed a few steps.
The others also followed.
Jin Xichuan began to organize the ranks again, and under his command, they formed a neat line.
Coincidentally, that female cultivator stood beside Mo Qi again and whispered to him, "You should be out there as a leader. Your prestige should be higher than his now. Why aren't you going out?"
Mo Qi smiled, "I've always been this low-key."
Seeing that the formation was neat, Yang Zhi began his lecture.
He started by explaining the meaning of beast taming and its purpose, speaking very thoroughly and meticulously.
Everyone found it tedious and felt their skin itching.
It wasn't until Yang Zhi began to explain the methods of beast taming that everyone started to pay attention.
At some point, Linghu Xiaoxian arrived at the scene and stood in the distance, observing.
Many male cultivators noticed her, and Jin Xichuan also noticed her, immediately becoming energetic.
They all thought, this Linghu Xiaoxian has been paying special attention to our Third Hall recently. Is she paying attention to me? Looking around, perhaps only I possess such charm.
Thinking this, these male cultivators couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
Yang Zhi told everyone that beast taming requires forming a resonance with the demonic beasts, having emotional communication, and making the beast accept oneself. This process is very dangerous because the demonic beasts might attack you.
Therefore, selection is crucial. First, one must identify and find the demonic beast that is most likely to accept oneself.
The method is neither simple nor complex. It is to feel with one's heart!
Everyone was immediately bewildered.
Mo Qi was also somewhat speechless. The most difficult thing was to feel with one's heart. What is feeling? It's something that cannot be touched or seen.
However, Yang Zhi felt that everyone had understood and asked them to go up and experience it one by one.
Everyone glanced at the wild beasts opposite them, each baring its fangs and roaring thunderously, eager to tear people to shreds. A wave of fear instantly washed over them.
Who would dare to experience it at the risk of their life!
Jin Xichuan looked back at Linghu Xiaoxian. He always felt that this beautiful woman was looking at him.
Therefore, under the beautiful woman's gaze, he couldn't back down!
So he roared, "I'll do it!" and strode out valiantly.
Seeing Jin Xichuan approach, the demonic beasts in the front row immediately became agitated, stretching their necks forward, their teeth bared, and their front paws extended, as if ready to charge at any moment.
Jin Xichuan's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but pause.
Yang Zhi turned and glared fiercely at the demonic beasts. The demonic beasts immediately became much more obedient, wagging their tails, retracting their teeth, and even their gazes became more amiable.
Yang Zhi turned back and cast an encouraging look at Jin Xichuan.
Jin Xichuan mustered his courage and walked forward again.
He walked right up to the demonic beasts. Although the demonic beasts kept growling, they made no further moves, which put Jin Xichuan at ease. He then began to survey his surroundings, touching the demonic beasts one by one.
They really looked no different, all with fierce eyes and equally violent tempers.
Jin Xichuan was on the verge of despair. He scanned the crowd of demonic beasts back and forth countless times, his eyes blurring, yet he found nothing.
He tried to casually stroke a demonic beast, as if stroking a kitten, and with a few strokes, it would be tamed.
However, the demonic beast was provoked. With a roar, it raised its head, opened its mouth, and bit down on his arm, almost tearing it off.
Fortunately, Yang Zhi intervened in time, and the demonic beast let go.
Having narrowly escaped death, Jin Xichuan no longer dared to try anything rash. He fled back in embarrassment, no longer caring about his image, and returned to the team.
His clothes were torn, blood was flowing profusely, and sweat was constantly dripping.
After finally stopping the bleeding, he said in utter terror, "It's too scary. None of you should go either. If I can't do it, you probably can't either."
The surrounding people were indeed frightened, but hearing him say that, they felt a little unconvinced.
Who do you think you are? If you can't do it, others necessarily can't?
But despite their lack of conviction, no one dared to try easily.
They looked at each other, appearing lost.
Yang Zhi urged them anxiously, "Hurry up and try. Everyone must try. No one can escape."
Since escape was impossible, they would have to go up with a brave face.
Thinking this, one person prepared to step forward.
However, at this moment, Yang Zhi said again, "What's the big deal? As long as I stop them in time, they won't eat you. At most, they'll just injure an arm. What are you afraid of?"
That person was scared back again.
A stalemate ensued, with no one daring to go out.
At this moment, everyone was thinking, I'd rather be punished along with everyone else than go out alone and get injured or even die.
Yang Zhi became furious and started cursing!
Just then, a young man in white walked out gracefully, attracting everyone's attention. It was none other than the fellow who was more skilled at refining pills than the elder, Mo Qi.
Linghu Xiaoxian, who had been leaning against a tree, straightened up, a smile that was hard to describe appearing on her face.
Jin Xichuan snorted, "Putting on a show of heroism, are you? Only you are capable, right? You want to steal the spotlight in refining pills, and you want to steal the spotlight in beast taming too. Why are you so conceited? Conceit comes with a price. Let's see how you handle it later, whether you get injured or die."
