Chapter 38 Target: Lord-level Monster!
Chapter 38 Target: Lord-level Monster!
"There are still a few high-level beast general-level monsters on the street. Let's take them all out first."
Qin Ming flipped and leaped onto the rooftop, carefully searching above, and soon found a suitable target.
Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
With a few quick movements, Qin Ming landed heavily on the ground, with the tiger cat following closely behind, protecting him from behind.
Without uttering a word, with a thought, the tiger cat pounced and charged at a group of lion mastiffs entrenched in the street.
The flying knife pierced the air, and the soul howled.
With just these two moves, even a high-level beast general would be no match for them.
With a high-level beast general, the tiger-cat, accompanying him, the monsters attracted by the blood and screams couldn't even get close to Qin Ming.
The entire street quickly fell into a deathly silence.
Half a day later, there were already five high-level beast generals following Qin Ming.
They are the Fire-Scaled Trident Boar, the Ironclad Bull, the Purple Lightning Python, the Tiger Cat, and the Azure-Scaled Eagle. These five monsters were all carefully selected by Qin Ming, each with its own advantages.
The Firescale Trident Boar and the Ironclad Bull are large in size and have extremely strong defense, making them suitable for absorbing damage in the front line.
The Purple Lightning Python possesses a very special ability—ranged electric attack!
It has an electrical organ inside its body, and the high-voltage current it releases can cause a strong paralyzing effect, even if it cannot kill the enemy instantly.
As for the Azure-scaled Eagle, it is a flying monster with a wingspan of over 12 meters and its entire body covered in bluish-black scales.
Such a massive flying monster can not only monitor the battlefield from the sky and participate in combat, but also serve as a flying mount.
Qin Ming had put a lot of effort into hunting this Azure Scaled Eagle, because the speed of a high-level flying beast general was already enough to break the speed of sound.
If you're not careful, the other party might escape.
"The amount of flesh essence consumed in refining a flesh puppet is closely related to its size. For example, when refining a Fire Scale Trident Boar, which is also a high-level beast general, it consumes more than ten times the amount of flesh essence compared to refining a Tiger Cat!"
If the corpse is severely damaged, it will also consume more of the essence of blood and flesh.
I just never expected that the essence of flesh and blood could have the effect of regenerating severed limbs.
Leaning against the balcony, Qin Ming watched the five high-level beast generals slaughtering below.
After a monster dies, its soul is collected into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, where it retains its consciousness from its previous life and can communicate with others.
Nature allows them to hunt on their own.
While it may not be as efficient as doing it yourself, if there are enough of them, it can be an extremely powerful force.
He can also free himself from the massacre and focus on training himself.
The ability to regenerate severed limbs is a new feature discovered during monster hunting.
Qin Ming had never been injured before, so he naturally didn't notice.
Previously, when the Tiger Cat Monster was injured by other monsters while hunting, Qin Ming was pleasantly surprised to find that as long as it was fed enough flesh essence, it could recover from even the most severe injuries.
Limb regeneration is just a minor issue.
This conclusion was reached by Qin Ming after personally capturing several monsters and conducting repeated experiments.
"But methods of spiritual communication are really too useless."
Qin Ming frowned and turned to look at the Tiger-Hound, a low-level beast general, lying next to him with its limbs broken.
In addition to the manipulation of telekinetic weapons, "The Fundamentals of Spiritual Mastery" also includes some illusionist techniques and the mind communication methods of beast tamers.
Qin Ming had studied all of these.
Perhaps because of his powerful soul, he mastered illusion techniques very quickly.
Qin Ming learned all the attack and bewildering techniques, such as Mental Spike, Illusion Eye, and Dream Illusion, in less than half a day.
He even used it when sparring with Zhang Yan and Qianye.
However, Qin Ming rarely used it in actual combat.
After all that effort, it's much simpler and more efficient to control a monster's soul and directly rush into the other person's sea of consciousness.
Furthermore, when multiple monster souls attack a single target simultaneously, their power can be stacked.
As for the Beast Taming chapter...
One of these methods is spiritual communication.
With a large number of flesh and blood puppets, Qin Ming naturally planned to cosplay the profession of Beast Tamer.
Unfortunately, even with his powerful mental strength, he was unable to subdue a low-level beast general.
Because this so-called method of telepathic communication is actually just communicating with monsters through mental power.
Monsters, too, possess intelligence.
Moreover, reaching the level of Beast General already indicates a high level of intelligence.
Qin Ming, of course, didn't bother to communicate with the other party slowly; the question of being friends was simply a matter of one word.
beat!
Defeat the opponent until they submit.
Isn't that how animal training works?
After all that effort, there was still no good result.
Moreover, even if it succeeds, the risks are actually quite high.
Because so-called beast tamers don't actually have any powerful means of controlling monsters.
"Forget it, let's just practice casually. It's just a decoy anyway. Maybe we can try the Myriad Soul Banner. It can enslave the souls of dead monsters, so what about living ones?"
After trying it for a while, an idea popped into Qin Ming's mind.
He did as he pleased, using his powerful mental energy to envelop the tiger-dog with its broken limbs and send it into the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.
call!call!call!
Within the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, tens of thousands of monster souls roared, and endless black energy surged.
Almost the instant Hu Aoquan entered the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, his body stiffened, his aura turned cold, and his soul flew out of his body.
"Dead?"
Qin Ming watched this scene with some regret, but it wasn't too surprising.
After all, this is the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, not the Banner of Taming Beasts.
"Well, with the souls of three lord-level monsters inside the Myriad Soul Banner, plus five high-level beast generals, maybe I can try hunting low-level lord-level monsters."
Qin Ming took a deep breath and looked at the tens of thousands of roaring monster souls within the Myriad Soul Banner.
[Banner Master: Qin Ming (Beginner-level Warrior, Advanced-level Spiritual Master)]
[Souls: 72928/100000 (3 Lord-level)]
[Main Soul: 0/1]
[Flesh and Blood Essence: 3218 / 100000]
After continuous hunting, the number of living souls within the Myriad Souls Banner has exceeded 70,000, and it is very close to the 100,000 mark.
However, there is still not much essence of flesh and blood.
After all, half of them were used to repair the Ten Thousand Soul Banner itself.
"After consuming approximately 2000 monster corpses, the range of soul activity within the Ten Thousand Soul Banner has increased to 120 meters."
With five high-level beast generals tanking damage in front and three lord-level monsters possessing their souls to launch flying knife attacks, it's time to attempt hunting lord-level monsters.
A hint of eagerness flickered in Qin Ming's eyes.
Although the range of soul activity within the Ten Thousand Souls Banner is only 120 meters, it does not mean that there is no attack capability beyond 120 meters. It just means that as the soul moves away from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, it will become weaker and its power will decrease.
This is the same as the effective range of a firearm.
An effective range of 800 meters does not mean that you can catch a bullet with your bare hands from 800 meters away.
"Over there, there's a low-level lord-class monster, the Giant Rock Black Bear. It's strong, but slow; you could give it a shot!"
Qin Ming stood up, a glint of shrewdness in his eyes.
The benefits would be immense if one could hunt down a lord-level monster and turn it into a flesh puppet.
drop!drop!drop!
Just as Qin Ming was about to act, the communicator on his wrist rang.
Looking at the name above, his expression immediately became somewhat unnatural.
