The system opened its mouth, somewhat speechless, and said, "You are my master's junior brother, can you not be so cowardly?" You sealed this ferocious beast yourself back then, I really don't know what you're afraid of..."
Ling Qianji, "This isn't about being cowardly, this is a ferocious beast. I'm only at the Foundation Establishment stage, how can I possibly defeat it, let alone subdue it."
Thinking of something, Ling Qianji narrowed his eyes and looked at the system, "Lord Divine Beast, aren't you a divine beast? How about... you go and subdue that Yuan Ji!"
System, "..." Good heavens! How did it get involved?
(￣_,￣)
After a long while, the system cleared its throat and said seriously, "Although I am a divine beast, I have no cultivation."
"All show and no substance?" Ling Qianji sized up the system from head to toe, frowning, "It doesn't look strong either..."
System, "..."
━━(￣ー￣*|||━━
"Cough, cough, cough! I'm just here to accompany you. Besides, my host... said that you can only rely on yourself for all of this."
Ling Qianji fell silent, glanced at the secret manual in his hand, gritted his teeth, and stepped towards the previous cave entrance.
Seeing this, the system quickly struck a match, took out a candle, lit it, and then carefully placed the candle on the ground, guarding it.
"Boom—"
Not long after, the system saw a familiar figure fly out backward, smashing heavily against the stone wall.
System, "..." Oh, this...
Ling Qianji spat out a mouthful of blood, struggled to get up from the ground, and muttered to himself, "It seems a frontal assault won't work..."
Hearing Ling Qianji's words, the system's mouth twitched, "It's a ferocious beast, and you're trying a frontal assault?" How can the dignified Demon Lord of a realm be so naive...
"It seems I have no choice but to fight."
With that, Ling Qianji brandished his sword and charged in again and again, making the system utterly speechless.
"Alas..."
The system sighed, patted the little candle in its hand with heartache, and finally lit it.
But in less than two seconds, the flickering flame on the candle was extinguished again and again!
"Boom—"
Ling Qianji flew out backward again.
This time, Ling Qianji didn't rush in immediately. Instead, he took out the secret manual and began to cultivate.
After an unknown amount of time, Ling Qianji opened his eyes again.
The system sensed it and found that his aura had become much stronger.
Seeing him about to go in again, the system expressionlessly took out another small candle.
After wasting several more candles, Ling Qianji started cultivating again.
And so it went, in a cycle that repeated countless times, until Ling Qianji finally beat the Yuan Ji into submission.
Seeing Ling Qianji dragging the Yuan Ji out of the cave by its leg, the system's mouth twitched, "It's huge, why are you dragging it out?"
Ling Qianji scratched the back of his head and said a little sheepishly, "Lord Divine Beast, how does one subdue this ferocious beast? I've only seen senior brother Changsubdue spirit beasts, but I've never seen anyone subdue a ferocious beast..."
Hearing Ling Qianji's words, the Yuan Ji let out a fierce roar, "You undying human! Not only are you a persistent nuisance! You even want to subdue me! Let me tell you! I will not yield to you!"
Damn humans! This is too damn weird! How many times has it been killed by this guy? It can still jump around alive?! Is its life this tough?
The system silently moved a little further away from the Yuan Ji, "You just need to drip your blood onto the center of its forehead on its middle head."
"It's that simple?"
The system nodded, "It's that simple."
Seeing Ling Qianji walking towards it, the Yuan Ji roared fiercely at him, "You dare!"
