Chapter 203: Subduing the Spiritual Beasts from the Classic of Mountains and Seas
As the bone knife was pulled out, a stream of blood gushed out. Nan Qiao was prepared and quickly took out external injury medicine and clean hay from the space.
She first sprinkled the powder evenly on the wound, and then carefully bandaged it with hay, her movements skillful and agile.
Under Nan Qiao's treatment, the beast's mood gradually stabilized and the madness in his eyes gradually faded away.
The people of the Stone Tribe watched Nan Qiao trying his best to rescue the huge and powerful strange beast, and they couldn't help but feel puzzled and whispered to each other.
"Why did the Chosen One save this beast? It is so powerful. Once it goes crazy, it can easily destroy one tribe after another." A young tribesman said with concern.
The leader beside him, Agula, shook his head slightly and replied thoughtfully, "The Chosen One always has her reasons for doing things."
"Perhaps she realized that the beast wasn't naturally ferocious, but was driven into this frenzy by the wound from the bone knife. If we can alleviate its pain and restore its sanity, perhaps we can avert further disasters in the future."
"But this is a huge risk after all. What if it turns against us after it recovers from its injuries?" Another tribesman raised the question.
While Nan Qiao carefully treated the beast's wounds, he explained to everyone, "This is not an ordinary beast."
"Look, although its eyes are now wild with pain, deep within them, there is a faint light of agility and wisdom that is different from that of ordinary beasts."
"The eyes of ordinary beasts often express instinctive ferocity or fear, but this one has a deeper spiritual charm."
Nan Qiao gently brushed aside the hair on the beast's wings and continued, "Furthermore, its fur isn't just messy and rough like normal, but has a strange luster and delicate texture, as if it's been nourished by spiritual energy for a long time."
"Although the aura around the wound is bloody, beneath the blood, I can sense a faint fluctuation of pure spiritual power. The frequency of this spiritual power fluctuation is very similar to the feeling I felt when taming a soul-devouring beast. It is impossible for an ordinary wild beast to contain such pure spiritual power."
"So, I concluded it must be the guardian beast of some spiritual creature, but I don't know why it suffered this misfortune."
"I see." Agula nodded and asked, "Will it hurt us?"
Nan Qiao shook his head. "As long as we don't actively approach what it wants to protect, it won't hurt us."
Everyone's tense nerves finally relaxed.
After the guardian beast rested for a while, its eyes became clear.
It slowly raised its head and gently nudged Nan Qiao's arm with its head, as if to express its gratitude.
Then, it took two steps forward and looked back at Nan Qiao, its eyes filled with expectation.
Seeing this, Nan Qiao couldn't help but ask, "Are you asking me to go with you?"
The guardian beast hummed, as if responding to her.
Nan Qiao turned to the people of the Stone Tribe and said, "Wait here for me. I'll go check out the situation."
Kamu, with a worried look on his face, quickly reminded: "Lord Chosen One, be careful."
Nan Qiao nodded and followed the guardian beast.
After walking for a while, the man and the beast passed through a thick fog, and suddenly the view in front of them opened up. They saw a towering tree standing tall, with a little bird perched on its branch.
The little bird looks like a pheasant but has colorful feathers and looks somewhat like a sparrow.
Nan Qiao's heart moved. Could this be the spiritual bird recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?
With excitement, she cautiously tried to approach it. Seeing that the guardian beast did not react, she became bolder and took out the spiritual herbs from the space and handed them to the spiritual bird.
When the spirit bird smelled the scent of the spirit herb, its eyes lit up immediately. It happily ate all the spirit herb and chirped with satisfaction.
Afterwards, Nan Qiao took out another spirit stone and silently recited the method of taming.
After a moment, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the spirit bird, and then it flew to Nan Qiao's shoulder, rubbing her cheek affectionately, and became her little friend.
At the same time, Nan Qiao knew without asking that the real name of this spirit bird was Jingyuan Spirit Bird.
Although the Jingyuan Spirit Bird is small in size, it contains powerful purifying power.
Its feathers shimmer with a faint blue light, like a lively elf.
Its sharp beak can release the power of purification. No matter whether it is turbid air, polluted water, or the ground full of garbage, it can start the purification process with just a light peck.
It can decompose harmful gases in the air in a very short time, convert toxins in sewage into harmless substances, and turn garbage into nutrients to nourish the earth.
Nan Qiao couldn't help but open her eyes wide in surprise. With Jingyuan Lingque and the others, the smog, garbage and polluted soil in the Flower Country can be saved!
She couldn't help but touch Lingque's head, and the other party fell on her shoulder obediently and let her touch it.
After receiving the spirit bird, Nan Qiao left this place and walked towards the people of the Stone Tribe.
But Nan Qiao could feel that the guardian beast was always following her.
After reuniting with the other tribesmen, they continued their journey back to the Stone Tribe.
Along the way, she could still clearly feel the guardian beast following behind her silently.
As they walked, the guardian beast would occasionally appear. Its huge body would quietly emerge from the woods or grass beside it. After its eyes met Nan Qiao's, it would turn around and walk forward, motioning her to follow.
Under the guidance of the guardian beast, Nan Qiao gained a lot from this trip.
First, they tamed the Lingfeng bird, which had a human face and a bird body, and wore two green snakes on its ears and stepped on two green snakes.
Its whole body exudes a lively aura, and when it flaps its wings, it can control the power of the wind, either gently brushing on the face or roaring.
Then, I met the Spirit Shadow Fox again.
The Lingying Fox is similar to the Nine-Tailed Fox. The Nine-Tailed Fox looks like a fox with nine tails and calls like a baby.
It has a sturdy body and its fur looks dreamy in the interweaving of light and shadow.
Not only does it possess the magical ability of invisibility, it can also pass through spatial obstacles with ease, like a mysterious phantom traveling through the world.
With the help of the guardian beast, Nan Qiao successfully tamed it.
In order to avoid trouble, Nan Qiao put them all into the spirit storage bag.
One day, when they arrived at a quiet valley, the guardian beast suddenly stopped and let out a low roar.
Nan Qiao became alert and quickly went to check, only to see a strange array of light appearing in front of the guardian beast.
"What's wrong with you? Is this a teleportation array?"
The guardian beast signaled Nan Qiao to come closer. Nan Qiao hesitated for a moment and then walked in.
The moment you step into the light array, the scene changes.
Ancient ruins appeared before my eyes, and the walls were engraved with mysterious runes and patterns.
Nan Qiao explored curiously and found a spiritual crystal emitting faint light in the corner. It seemed to contain great power. Just as she was about to study it, the ruins suddenly moved strangely, as if a mechanism was triggered.
The guardian beast reacted quickly, standing in front of Nan Qiao, its eyes fixed on the darkness.
At this time, a group of spirit ants rushed out and pounced towards Nan Qiao fiercely. Although these spirit ants were small in size, they were quite intelligent, and were surrounded by green light, which seemed to be highly poisonous.
