Chapter 5 Foothills
As the general of Xuan State, Xue Che was particularly fond of hunting. Normally, when he encountered some rare or unusual-looking beasts, he would choose to surround them instead of killing them, and send his soldiers to set traps, capture them alive, and raise them in the backyard of the general's mansion.

Occasionally, Han Yi's adoptive father would be invited to join in the hunting.

Therefore, the news that there were many strange beasts in the backyard of the Xue Mansion was not a secret in the eyes of Han Yi, the second son of Marquis Xuanbo.

It's just that his adoptive father liked beauties more and had little interest in these rare and exotic animals, and had no intention of raising them.

Otherwise, Xue Che would have packed up these rare and exotic animals and sent them to Xuanbo Hou’s Mansion long ago!
Han Jia, on the other hand, looked at Han Yi with a strange expression and said, "Second brother, don't you like practicing the most? Why are you interested in these strange beasts again?"

Han Yi came to this era and experienced the initial confusion. After knowing that this world was primitive and that there were many immortals outside of Jiuzhou, he also searched for methods of cultivation. His intention to embark on the path of cultivation was no secret in the Xuanbo Marquis Mansion.

Han Jia naturally knew it too.

However, the only method of cultivation circulating in the human race, apart from the martial arts created by Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi, is the Golden Elixir Dao passed down by the Saint Taiqing!
The path to the Golden Elixir requires extremely high qualifications from the practitioner. He remembered that his second brother, after three years of groping, had not yet found the way, so he began to seek other methods.

But, even if others know other methods, would they easily teach them?
after all……

Neither relatives nor friends!
Why should I pass on my kung fu and magical powers to a stranger!

After Dayu divided the country into nine states and used the Nine Cauldrons to suppress the destiny of the human race, the earthly aura of the human race rose to the sky. Even those famous and powerful people would be greatly suppressed here.

Therefore, truly capable immortals will basically seek a blessed mountain place to practice, rather than staying in the mundane world and lingering in the mundane world.

If you want to find a teacher, you probably have to leave Kyushu to have any hope.

Moreover, it also depends on whether you have the destiny to be an immortal!

In Kyushu, there are countless creatures like Han Yi who yearn for the path to immortality, but only one in ten thousand has the opportunity to embark on the path of cultivation.

Han Jia is no longer surprised by this!

In the early years, he had also tried to practice the Golden Elixir.

However, after realizing his own qualifications, he stopped forcing it!
Han Yi couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Brother, you may not know this, but I recently learned a method of taming animals, so I want to find an exotic animal and try it out to see if I can tame it!"

"Oh?"

"How to tame beasts?"

"My dear nephew, you have this opportunity. Could you please give me a copy?"

Before Han Jia could respond, Xue Che, who was leading the way in front, became interested. He turned around and wanted to ask Han Yi for a method to tame beasts.

"Of course!" Han Yi nodded and said, "If you are interested, I will copy a copy and send it to you personally!"

Xue Che raised so many exotic beasts, and he might have thought of taming them as mounts. Although he was a mortal, he was a general and had been in battle for a long time. If he could have a powerful exotic beast mount, it would increase his chances of winning when he encountered an equally powerful opponent.

When he heard about the method of taming beasts, he was naturally very interested.

And this was what Han Yi intended.

After all, the method of taming beasts has been copied to Xue Che. If he sees an exotic beast that meets his requirements in Xue Che's mansion later, with Xue Che's emotional intelligence, he will probably be a submissive person and hand over the exotic beast to him, either for the sake of Marquis Xuanbo or for the favor of the method of taming beasts.

This is actually a kind of exchange of interests!
Of course, it was impossible for Han Yi to pass on the magical power of borrowing the law to measure the sky to Xue Che.

However, when he was practicing on Jin'ao Island, he also learned a lot of unconventional skills, including several methods of taming beasts, so it should not be a problem to use them to subdue a few strange beasts.

Soon, Han Yi and his group, led by Xue Che, arrived at the backyard of the general's mansion.

Xue Che pointed at the dozen cages in front of him and said to Han Yi, "These dozen exotic animals are the rare and exotic species I have found in recent years. If you are interested, you can choose one to take away later! It's a good opportunity for me to see the mystery of your method of taming animals."

"Thank you very much, uncle!"

Upon hearing this, Han Yi immediately bowed to Xue Che.

Having said that, without hesitation, he looked straight towards the dozen or so cages, wanting to see what was inside.

Xue Che introduced: "That wild boar seems to have some Dang Kang blood, but it looks ugly, so it's not appropriate to use it as a mount!"

Then, he pointed to a black horse and said, "This black horse has a trace of dragon blood. It is the most majestic of the many exotic beasts I have raised!"

……

Xue Che introduced them one by one, but Han Yi's gaze went straight past the black horse that Xue Che regarded as a treasure and looked at a strange beast with black and white stripes.

There were shackles on its limbs and neck, and there were several tooth marks on the iron cage that held the beast, which was enough to show how ferocious the beast was.

"Why? Nephew, you are interested in this foothill?" Xue Che followed Han Yi's gaze and said with a smile, "Not long ago, this guy broke into the military camp in the middle of the night and ate a lot of military equipment. It was very ferocious. I had to work very hard to capture it and subdue it. Moreover, after being subdued, it ate several of my iron cages. I had no choice but to use shackles to restrain its limbs and neck! If you want to choose it, I'm afraid it will not be easy to tame it!"

"No problem, it's him!" Han Yi didn't take Xue Che's reminder seriously. He just looked at the foot of the mountain with a smile on his face and said, "It's just right, let Uncle see my method of taming beasts!"

The foothills are also known as the Iron-eating Beast. According to legend, when the military leader Chi You and Emperor Xuanyuan Huangdi were fighting in Zhuolu, they subdued an Iron-eating Beast and used it as a mount for battle.

Today's iron-eating beasts have obviously not lost their ferocious nature. They are extremely powerful and can swallow gold and iron. They are far from being as docile and cute as the national treasure giant panda of later generations.

But, this is exactly what Han Yi is pursuing!
Swallow gold and eat iron!

This is the talent of the iron-eating beast!

However, what Han Yi values ​​most is the iron-eating beast's terrifying digestive ability. If he could share this ability, it would be enough to make Han Yi's speed of refining essence into qi several times faster.

To refine essence into Qi is to refine the primordial essence, and the source of primordial essence is the Qi and blood in the body, which is transformed from various foods or precious medicines containing spiritual power.

The higher the conversion efficiency, the faster the speed of refining essence into qi will be.

With the help of six hundred years of practice experience, plus the "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" which points to the way to the celestial immortal, Han Yi had already refined the first ray of spiritual energy long before attending the banquet. Although he could not perform any magical powers yet, he had already taken the first step in practice!
And this is also the confidence he has in taming the mountain in front of him!
"Then I'll wait and see!"

Seeing Han Yi's confident look, Xue Che did not continue to persuade him, but stood quietly there, intending to see how Han Yi would tame this mountain goat.

"call!"

Han Yi exhaled a breath of foul air, slowly walked towards the foot of the mountain, pressed his right hand on the center of the mountain's eyebrows, and vigorously infused the first ray of spiritual energy he had tempered into the mountain.

boom!
The foothills, which had been extremely ferocious, suddenly collapsed to the ground, unable to recover, as if they had suffered a severe blow.

"How can this be?"

Han Bing and Han Geng, who came with Xue Che and Han Jia, were immediately stunned, as if they had seen something unbelievable.

Although Xue Che and Han Jia's faces were not as surprised as Han Bing's, they frowned slightly, finding it difficult to understand the sudden change!
"How is it, uncle?" Han Yi turned his head and looked at Xue Che. He put on a proud look and chuckled, "My nephew's method of taming beasts is not bad, isn't it?"

He had long been able to hide his emotions, and the reason he acted like this was to confuse everyone and avoid any accidents.

no way!
Who told him that he is currently weak?

When you are not strong enough, you must restrain your forces, be patient and wait for the right time to avoid being feared by others.

He believed that one day, he would no longer have to care about anyone's mood, and would be immortal, indestructible, and have eternal freedom.

"My dear nephew, you are very capable!" Xue Che praised him, and said with a fixed gaze: "If I am not mistaken, my dear nephew used his spiritual power. Could it be that my dear nephew has completed the process of refining essence into qi?"

Refining gas?

Han Jia, Han Bing, Han Geng, and Xue Li were all shocked when they heard this.

Although Han Yi's pursuit of immortality was no secret in the eyes of these people, they were still somewhat surprised to hear that he had taken the first step.

After all, this step is not easy!
"It's just a fluke!"

Han Yi did not deny that as the general of Xuan State, Xue Che had also dealt with some Qi-refining practitioners, so it was not surprising that he could see that he had cultivated spiritual energy.

He didn't even think about hiding it.

As the second son of Marquis Xuanbo, as long as he does not do anything disobedient, he still has some privileges within the territory of Xuan State, and he does not need to hide himself for the time being.

On the contrary, exposing some things appropriately can also avoid some troubles.

At least, before Han Jia was accepted as a personal disciple by Daoxing Tianzun, he could get more attention from his adoptive father.

"Two days ago, I was blessed and took the first step. But to complete the process of refining essence into qi, with my qualifications, I'm afraid it will take more than ten years of hard work!"

"Moreover, the mortal energy of the Nine Provinces is rising to the sky, and the strength of the cultivators is suppressed. Even if I really achieve something, I probably won't be a match for you!"

Han Yi looked respectful and humble. While confirming Xue Che's guess, he also did not forget to praise the other party, making him feel as if he were in spring breeze.

Of course, this is also true!

In Jiuzhou, the strength of practitioners will be suppressed to varying degrees. The stronger the practice, the more suppression they will receive.

Unless you cultivate to the realm of a saint, you will not be affected, and will be able to rule the universe, endure countless calamities without being worn out, be untainted by cause and effect, and remain with the heaven and coexist with the Tao!

Unfortunately, there are only a limited number of saints, and it is almost impossible to become a saint.

Apart from the Taoist Ancestor of Zixiao Palace and the six saints of heaven, in the prehistoric world, only Niangniang Pingxin in the depths of the underworld can be regarded as a true saint!
Even the Three Sovereigns of the human race, Fuxi, Shennong and Xuanyuan, were only saints in name only, but not in reality.

That's why the destiny of the human race was suppressed in the Fire Cloud Cave, and no one could escape!
