Chapter 154: Different Methods of Controlling Beasts
Normally, the Great Sect Master is not something that ordinary disciples can see if they want to, but now is the annual stage of introductory inspection of new disciples, so the Great Sect Masters of each sect will deign to meet the disciples who want to join. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Of course, the premise is that these disciples have to ask for their own sights, and it is actually rare to find them by themselves like Tianfei and Zhenyuan Shangxian, no, it should be said that there is no precedent for this.
Knowing that today was the day of the investigation, the great sect master of the Spirit Law Sect was specially waiting in the main hall of the sect, so the three of them quickly met the great sect master of the Spirit Law Sect.
The Great Sect Master of the Spirit Law Sect is called the Seven Tribulation True Monarch, which sounds very fierce, but when he sees a real person, he has a completely different feeling. This great sect master looks like he is only in his early thirties, his face is very handsome, and his simple white clothes are wearing a fairy spirit, and he has a feeling that he will go away with the wind in the next second.
Not only is his appearance not fierce, but the conversation of this Seven Tribulations True Monarch is also fairy-like, always with a feeling of light and light. To tell the truth, this great sect master feels like a terminally ill literary and artistic youth to Tianyou more than the immortal gate saint who can destroy the city and uproot the village with a raise of his hand.
Bai Bingyu and Bai Bingqian were both unusually respectful in front of this, and of course Tianyou didn't dare to make a mistake. The other party is different from Tianfei, and they are not particularly enthusiastic about Tianyou, and they don't know if it's because of their personality, or they know that Tianyou doesn't have the potential to develop in spells, so they don't pay attention very much. After a brief introduction to the characteristics of the Spirit Law Sect, it was implied that God blessed them and they could retreat, and there was no intention of soliciting.
Out of the main hall, Bai Bingyu confirmed Tianyou's thoughts, and determined that the Seven Tribulations True Monarch should know that Tianyou's talent was not suitable for the Spirit Law Sect, so he was too lazy to waste his energy on him.
The Spirit Law Sect itself is not Tianyou's first choice, since everyone doesn't care, he doesn't care even more. The only thing he was interested in was this Ethereal Peak, but this thing was obviously not something he could study clearly.
After leaving the Spirit Law Sect, the three of them once again stepped into the Dou Zhuan Star Shifting Great Array, and the use of the Dou Zhuan Star Shifting Great Array by new disciples during the three-day inspection period was completely free, otherwise even Bai Bingyu would not dare to use it like this.
The three major sects of the six sects of Zixiao, Tianwu, Danding, and Lingfa have all been seen, and this time the target was selected as the Beast Control Sect.
Tianyou had always thought that the Beast Control Sect was a place that specialized in cultivating demon pet users, but Bai Bingyu was seriously explaining the knowledge to Tianyou along the way, making him understand that the demon pet was far from representing the Beast Control Sect.
The Beast Control Sect is not only controlling demon beasts, in fact, people, demons, demons, ghosts, spirits, monsters, spirits, beasts, all living beings are within the scope of the Beast Control Sect, and the ways of controlling these creatures are also divided into many kinds, not as Tianyou thought before, only demon pets are as simple as Tianyou thought before.
These creatures that can assist cultivators are generally divided into three types according to different control methods: Mysterious Beasts, Summoned Beasts, and Divine Generals.
The Mysterious Beast is a type of existence that is bound by a soul contract, subordinate to the cultivator, and controlled by the cultivator. Its advantage is that it has a complete sense of self, and its growth is very high, and if it is cultivated well, it can become the sharpest blade, the most reliable comrade-in-arms, and the most solid shield in the hands of cultivators. Of course, on the other hand, these advantages are precisely where the disadvantages lie.
Being self-aware means that the beast can be a tacit comrade or a traitor.
High growth means that once a cultivator's progress speed can't keep up with the rhythm, he may be overtaken by the Xuan Beast, which in turn will lead to the collapse of the contract and the Xuan Beast losing control.
Although these two shortcomings seem to be quite serious, in general, the Xuan Beast is still a practical and useful combat force, and for most cultivators, what they need to worry about is not the danger of the Xuan Beast, but how to obtain one.
There are only two types of mysterious beasts, dead or alive. The one who dies is to extract the souls of living beings to make soul beads, and then sign a contract with soul beads to obtain mysterious beasts. What is alive is to sign a soul contract directly with a living creature and make it a mysterious beast.
Both methods have their advantages and disadvantages.
Signing a contract with the soul bead has less resistance and a high success rate, but the disadvantage is that the growth is limited, and it is difficult to reach the limit state. The living Mysterious Beast is just the opposite, the resistance is very strong when the contract is signed, and the cultivators who are not strong can even control it at all, but once the signing is successful, the growth of this Mysterious Beast will be very terrifying, and in the later stage, it can become a super combat force in its own right.
Although living beings, including humans, can become mysterious beasts, it is too cost-effective to use humans to make mysterious beasts, not to mention that there is no combat power, and the number of other races is scarce, and the most common ones are monsters and beasts.
Needless to say, the beast's combat effectiveness is too low, and basically no one can look down on it.
Therefore, at present, nine out of ten of the Xuan Beasts used by Xianmen cultivators are monsters, which is why many people are accustomed to directly referring to Xuan Beasts with demon pets.
Demon pet, in addition to explaining that the body of the beast is a demon, there is also a word "pet". The meaning of this word is that cultivating mysterious beasts should be like training pets, not only cultivating combat effectiveness, but more importantly, emotional communication. Therefore, compared with the mysterious beast, the word demon pet is a more appropriate way to point out the characteristics of the mysterious beast.
Of course, it is not accurate to refer to the mysterious beast with a demon pet, because there are also non-demon types among the mysterious beasts, for example, some people will use zombies as mysterious beasts, and this kind of existence is obviously not suitable to be called a demon pet.
In addition to the Mysterious Beast, the second type of battle method of the Beast Control Sect is to summon beasts.
Harnessing the Beast is to control the real creature by relying on the soul contract, while the summoned beast is more like a virtual creature constructed with spells.
For example, if you want to summon a skeleton to help you fight, you need to learn the spell "Summoning a Skeleton Warrior" first. When using summoning, targeted summoning is responsible for building creatures, while the caster is responsible for providing spiritual support.
Because this summoned thing is basically equivalent to a creature created by the summoner, there is no resistance at all, but the intelligence of this summon is generally not high, and the summoner cannot command them as an arm, at most it is to issue some simple commands.
In addition to these shortcomings, there are also quite a few other disadvantages of summoned beasts. For example, the summoned beast itself has no growth at all, and its combat power depends entirely on the basic template and the summoner's spiritual strength. There is also the fact that the temporary summoning of the summoned beast requires the consumption of the cultivator's own spiritual power, which is not as good as the mysterious beast.
In general, the combat power of summoned beasts is higher at the beginning, but it is not as good as the mysterious beasts that have grown up in the later stage, and it is a lot worse. But as a cheap and easy-to-use thing, summoning beasts is still the first choice for many cultivators, after all, not everyone can get them.
The last combat power of the Beast Control Sect is called the Divine General, and Bai Bingyu doesn't know much about this thing, because she hasn't seen it herself, so the explanation is not very clear.
Tianyou only roughly understood from Bai Bingyu's introduction that the god generals should be an existence similar to the guardian gods, and they generally do not directly participate in the battle, but as long as the gods will exist, they will bring an overall increase in strength to the summoner. Of course, how much can be improved, and what abilities will be added, it all depends on which god general is summoned, and the gods will be able to appear in combination, and multiple gods will appear at the same time and even have combined skills.
Mysterious beasts, summoned beasts, and divine generals, these three types of existence constitute the main power system of the Beast Control Sect. But just like the computer science department in the university still needs to learn advanced mathematics, the beast control sect does not only teach the application of the three summons, they also need to learn some peripheral things, such as ...... Extraction and production of soul beads.
When he encountered the Fire Pig King in Qingyuan Mountain before, Tianyou saw Lu Meng extract soul beads, and extracting soul beads is a necessary skill, and all Zixiao Palace disciples must learn it. However, the Beast Control Sect is more detailed, not only need to learn to extract soul beads, but also need to learn how to turn soul beads into mysterious beasts that can be summoned.
The three of them were talking as they walked, explaining the situation of the Beast Control Sect, when they suddenly heard someone in front of them shouting a reminder: "The people in front are careful." There's a demon pet out of control!" (To be continued.) )
