Chapter 238 Experimental Beast Taming Technique

Lina and Ye Fan came to the edge of the Monster Forest, an area full of mystery and danger.

There is a heavy sense of oppression in the air here, and even the wind blowing through the treetops carries a hint of chill.

The towering ancient trees reached the sky, their trunks as thick as city walls, and their leaves were so dense that they almost blocked out the entire sky, and the few rays of sunlight that occasionally leaked through seemed particularly thin. Occasionally, low roars of animals could be heard in the forest, which made people shudder.

The Monster Forest is one of the most dangerous places in the entire Sky Blue Domain.

There are many kinds of monsters in the forest, ranging from ordinary low-level monsters to ferocious high-level monsters. This is a paradise for practitioners and adventurers, but also their grave.

There are countless opportunities and treasures hidden deep in the Monster Forest, but along with these opportunities come countless threats from monsters. Every year, countless practitioners fail here, but a few lucky ones return with a full load, carrying rare monster materials and wealth.

The town near the Monster Forest is a busy distribution center, known as the "Monster Hunting Town." The town is not big, but the streets are full of noise and busyness. When Lina and Ye Fan stepped into the town, they immediately felt an unusual atmosphere.

The people here are different from those in ordinary towns. Everyone carries a strong evil spirit, which is a trait accumulated after years of fighting monsters. Most of these monster hunters are rough and unruly, with simple clothes, but their eyes are flashing with sharp light, as if they are ready to face a life-and-death struggle at any time.

"This is a place where people live off the mountains and rely on the monster forest for a living." Lina said in a low voice with some emotion in her eyes.

Ye Fan nodded, and scanned the crowd in the town. Everyone in the town seemed to have a murderous aura, with tanned skin and blood and scars from monsters all over their bodies.

They may not have the same sophisticated skills as the practitioners, but everyone's combat experience and skills in fighting monsters are not to be underestimated. Everyone has experienced countless life-and-death struggles, and killing and danger have become their daily lives.

The most prosperous place in the town was a market, which Lina and Ye Fan walked slowly through. The market was filled with various trophies obtained by monster hunters after killing monsters - sharp monster claws, rare monster fur, and some rare herbs and minerals.

Some townspeople were selecting items in front of the stalls, while vendors were shouting loudly to promote their goods. Lina and Ye Fan could both feel that the people here were almost extremely dependent on the monsters.

"It seems that these people have really been fighting monsters for many years." Ye Fan said lightly, "The aura on them is so terrifying that even practitioners would find it terrifying."

"Yes, to survive in this environment, everyone must be alert at all times." Lina responded softly, looking at the people around her. She also noticed that although the town seemed calm, everyone's eyes were full of vigilance and caution, as if a monster would rush out of the forest at any time.

Lina and Ye Fan walked around the market, observing every corner of the town. They found that in addition to the stalls selling monster materials, there were also many equipment stores and pharmacies in the town.

Most of the equipment sold in these shops are made of materials from monsters, and each piece is full of practicality and toughness. Ye Fan looked at these protective equipment and nodded slightly, with a little more respect for the monster hunters in the town.

"Although the equipment here is crude, each piece has been tested in actual combat countless times." Ye Fan whispered, "These monster hunters are indeed extraordinary."

Lina nodded, feeling a little emotional. She knew that for these people, the Monster Forest was not only a dangerous place, but also a resource they depended on for survival. The Monster Hunting Town near the Monster Forest had formed such a unique lifestyle precisely because of the existence of this forest.

"Ye Fan, we should also prepare to enter the Monster Forest." Lina suddenly said, with a determined light flashing in her eyes, "Since we are already here, let's not waste time."

Ye Fan smiled slightly when he heard this. He was already prepared. The two then left the market and walked towards the depths of the Monster Forest. As they gradually approached the edge of the forest, the chill in the air became stronger.

Ye Fan's consciousness also began to expand, always alert to the surrounding movements. The danger of the Monster Forest is not an exaggeration, they must always be vigilant.

Passing through the trees and grass outside the forest, the light around me began to grow dimmer. The soil under my feet was soft and moist, and every step felt like walking on cotton. Occasionally, I could hear the low roar of animals in the distance.

Ye Fan looked at the surrounding environment with sharp eyes, and was ready to deal with sudden dangers at any time. Lina followed closely behind him, knowing that the monsters in this forest were not as easy to deal with as ordinary low-level monsters.

"This forest is full of dangers and unknowns," Lina said softly, "but it is also the place where we found our opportunity."

Ye Fan did not respond, but just nodded slightly.

Deep in the Monster Forest, Lina and Ye Fan walked slowly forward, and the surroundings were somewhat unnaturally quiet. Suddenly, a slight "rustling" sound came from the grass, as if something was approaching quickly. Ye Fan and Lina immediately stopped, looking alert, and stared at the direction of the sound.

"Something is coming," Ye Fan whispered, frowning slightly, his hand slowly raised, ready to attack at any time.

At this moment, the bushes were suddenly pushed aside, and a gray-white shadow rushed out quickly. A monster appeared in front of the two people. It had a slender body, strong limbs, and was covered with gray-white stiff hair. The hair shone with a faint metallic luster under the sunlight. The monster's eyes were sharp and cold, and its pupils were green, as if carrying a cold breath. Its tail was long and thin, shaking slightly, as if ready to launch a fatal attack at any time.

"This is... the Wind Blade Wolf." Lina recognized the monster in front of her, her tone a little serious.

The Wind Blade Wolf is a common low- to mid-level monster. Although its strength is average, it is extremely fast and is good at using wind magic to attack. Its best skill is called "Wind Blade Slash", which can quickly release invisible wind blades through its tail to cut the target. Facing ordinary monster hunters or practitioners, the Wind Blade Wolf is enough to pose a considerable threat.

The wind blade wolf in front of them was obviously not an ordinary wolf. It was more than twice as big as an ordinary wild wolf. Its sharp teeth gleamed in the sun, as if it could tear its prey apart at any time. Its footsteps were light and agile, and the muscles of its limbs were tight, showing its full strength. Its cold eyes stared at Ye Fan and Lina, as if looking for its next target to attack.

"Its strength is not too strong," Ye Fan whispered, observing the Wind Blade Wolf's movements with an indifferent expression.

Lina nodded, then lowered her voice and said, "It's just right for using the beast control technique. This is the most suitable target."

Beast Taming is an extremely advanced skill. Especially when controlling a monster beast, one must master the monster beast's strength and will. A monster beast that is too weak cannot withstand the control of the beast taming technique, while a monster beast that is too strong is difficult to tame. The wind blade wolf in front of him is just the right choice.

The Wind Blade Wolf seemed to have locked onto its prey. It growled and exerted its strength on its limbs. It instantly turned into a gray shadow and pounced directly at Lina and Ye Fan. Its tail was raised high, and a whirlwind of air suddenly appeared in the air. The sharp wind blade shot out with the swing of its tail and pounced on the two people.

Ye Fan's eyes flashed, and he nimbly avoided the wind blade. He jumped to the side as lightly as a swallow and stood firmly. At the same time, Lina also quickly took a step back to avoid the attack of the wind blade.

"Now!" Lina shouted in a low voice, and then she quickly formed seals with her hands, and the spiritual power in her body surged. A mysterious rune emerged from her palms with a faint glow. This was the core of the beast control technique - the control seal.

The Wind Blade Wolf obviously sensed the danger, its eyes suddenly became more ferocious, and its body suddenly crouched down, ready to attack again. However, at the moment it moved, Lina's seal had already been used. The seal turned into a beam of light, shooting straight at the Wind Blade Wolf, and instantly attached to its forehead.

The Wind Blade Wolf immediately let out a painful growl, and its entire body twitched violently. Then its movements became slow, and the fierce light in its eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a blank look. It seemed to have lost control, and its body, which was originally full of murderous intent, became stiff and even began to tremble.

"Success!" A hint of joy flashed in Lina's eyes. She could feel that the beast taming technique had begun to take effect and the will of the Wind Blade Wolf was being gradually suppressed.

Ye Fan stood aside, nodded slightly, and watched the Wind Blade Wolf gradually become docile. He secretly marveled at the wonders of the beast control technique. This technique was indeed powerful. If it could be mastered perfectly, it could give the practitioner a great advantage in battle.

After a while, the Wind Blade Wolf's eyes became completely calm, the talisman in Lina's hand gradually disappeared, and the Wind Blade Wolf lay on the ground obediently, as if it had completely accepted her control.

"Okay, it's mine now." Lina smiled slightly and stroked the Wind Blade Wolf's head gently, with a hint of pride in her tone.

"Not bad," Ye Fan said approvingly, "It seems that you have mastered the beast taming technique very well."

Lina smiled, but her eyes remained alert. Although the Wind Blade Wolf had been controlled, the dangers in the Monster Forest were far more than just this monster. The two looked at each other and decided to continue exploring deeper into the forest to find more opportunities and challenges.

The Wind Blade Wolf now followed the two of them obediently and became their right-hand man.
