Witch Wind

Chapter 87: The Way to Tame Beasts (Part )

More than a thousand Dongyun elite soldiers shouted in unison, like a group of brave wild boars, and charged towards the gate of Jinshan Town.

Amid the heavy footsteps, a dozen or so Xingtian clan members wearing heavy armor and devil-like face shields filed out from the bunkers on both sides. They held an inch-thick alloy steel shield in their left hands, and held a heavy machine gun with a long single chain in their right hands, and stood in a row in front of the door.

'Boom, boom, boom, boom!'
As the Dongyun soldiers began to charge, more than a dozen heavy machine guns roared in unison.

Dense shell casings poured down like a waterfall, and large-caliber bullets penetrated the bodies of the Dongyun soldiers with a terrible whistling sound.

The short and frail Dongyun people were like eggs under a hammer when faced with such large-caliber bullets. Their bodies were pierced, their limbs exploded, and wherever the bullets passed, large pieces of broken limbs and arms created a tragic blood mist.

Some of Dongyun's elite soldiers raised their guns and started shooting. They barely pulled the trigger before they were torn to pieces by the machine guns.

The bullet whizzed and hit the heavy shield hanging on the left hand of the Xingtian clan disciple. Amid the sharp impact sound, sparks flew and the bullet shattered into pieces on the shield without causing any damage to the shield.

Nanshan Manyue retreated at full speed. Surrounded by a dozen trusted guards, he staggered to the last car in the convoy, roaring angrily: "Beihe Cangyi, you bastard, traitor to the empire, you, you, you are dead!"

Yueqi also took a few men and women in hunting clothes and fled in a panic following Nanshan Manyue.

Facing the concentrated fire of more than a dozen heavy machine guns, even those who had mastered the evil power did not dare to confront them head-on. Not to mention, on the walls of Jinshan Town, there were armed guards of the Yingjishi who had already carried out large-caliber mortars.

"Prince Yueqi, think of a solution!" Nanshan Manyue yelled at Yueqi.

Yueqi's face looked very ugly.

She looked up at the sky and shook her head vigorously: "It is broad daylight now. Our power is greatly suppressed. When the moon rises, give me 10,000 souls to serve as a source of power, and I can make them die miserably."

The full moon at Nanshan was silent.

Ten thousand souls, you bastard. The entire Black Pearl Harbor garrison only has three hundred thousand troops. Where do you expect Nanshan Manyue to get ten thousand souls in such a hurry?

"We need time." Nanshan Manyue muttered, "The native monkeys in the forest have become more and more restless recently. It's easy to massacre a few tribes and gather 10,000 souls."

Suddenly, a sharp sound of breaking air was heard in the air.

On the city wall, large-caliber mortars began to bombard. More than a dozen balls of fire exploded among the charging Dongyun soldiers. Accompanied by shrill screams, a large number of soldiers were blown to pieces.

Nanshan Manyue and several Dongyun officers around him looked at the charging team covered in flames with horror, rushed to the car without saying a word, yelled and cursed wildly, and slapped the soldiers in the face, asking them to start the car and flee in a panic.

"Your Majesty, how can their artillery shells be so powerful?" Nanshan Manyue looked in disbelief as she turned around to look at the small battlefield that was completely engulfed in flames.

"The power of these shells is at least three times that of the Empire's mortar shells of the same caliber?" Nanshan Manyue rubbed his chin vigorously and murmured, "I heard that in Pinghai City in Shenzhou, a new explosive formula with a power more than three times that of traditional explosives has appeared. The Imperial Armory is currently testing it. Have these foreign barbarians actually put it into actual combat?"

Nanshan Manyue suddenly looked at an adjutant beside him and slapped him hard in the face: "Assholes, those people in the Imperial Armory should all commit suicide by disembowelment. Send a telegram to the mainland and tell them that the foreign barbarians have already put new explosives into actual combat, and I also need more powerful new weapons here!"

Yueqi was curled up in the cab, frowning, not knowing what he was thinking about.

After a long while, Yueqi whistled, and from her wide robe sleeves, a three-legged toad emitting a faint white light, as if made of silver, gently jumped out and landed on Yueqi's shoulder.

Yueqi rubbed the toad with his cheek, and the toad, which exuded a cold aura, made a few "gu'er" sounds.

"Yes, that Eastern man is very dangerous. Did you also notice that?" Yue Qi frowned and murmured, "But, in the Dharma Ending Age, all the sacred immortals and Buddhas of the Eastern Kingdom are huddled in their ancestral lands and dare not go out."

"Why does he dare to walk in the world?"

"Could it be that this is another 'end of the law protector' who cuts off his own path?"

Nanshan Manyue looked at Yueqi in confusion. He squinted his eyes and admired Yueqi's cute and sweet face greedily. He laughed, "Don't worry, Lord Yueqi. There is no danger in front of the imperial army. Beihe Cangyi did something stupid. I will make him come to his senses."

Yueqi smiled as beautiful as a flower and responded crisply to the full moon at Nanshan.

Nanshan Manyue suddenly became as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood. Although he had clearly abandoned his soldiers and fled in a panic, he acted as if he had won a great victory. He gave orders in a heroic and proud manner, ordering the motor vehicle soldiers to speed up and return to Black Pearl Harbor.

Jinshan Town.

In a heavily guarded room at the Yingji Commercial Office, Xing Tianli was watching a blond man pressing buttons on a radio.

This world is getting weirder and weirder.

The speed of their technological development is a bit outrageous. Even using the term technological explosion is difficult to describe their technological progress.

Xing Tianli remembered that the first transoceanic telegraph line of the Dayu Dynasty to communicate with overseas had not been built for twenty years. But now, a radio station capable of crossing the ocean and communicating with the mainland of the Eastern Country was beeping in front of him.

Moreover, this radio is small in size, only the size of a suitcase.

It can be seen that its technology has long been mature.

Exhaling heavily, Xing Tianli said in a deep voice: "Report what happened here to His Excellency Augustus and request further support. Tell His Excellency Augustus that for the benefit of the empire, I will launch an active attack on the Dongyun people in Black Pearl Harbor at the appropriate time."

Less than a cup of tea after the telegram was sent, Xing Tianli received a reply from Pinghai City.

Augustus told him in a telegram that the English colonies closest to the East had begun full-scale armed mobilization, and a colonial fleet of sufficient size was rushing to Black Borneo at full speed.

In the telegram, Augustus asked Xing Tianli to capture as many Dongyun people as possible, especially the healthy young ones, while attacking the Dongyun people's manpower in Black Borneo as much as possible. An ocean-going transport fleet of the Kingdom of Saint Norman was rushing to Black Borneo along with the colonial fleet of Yingjishi.

A healthy Dongyun captive, represented by the Holy Mother Church and the Holy Norman Kingdom, was willing to buy it at a high price of two large gold coins, or twenty taels of official silver. Xing Tianli could get a 10% kickback from it, whether it was cash or some special resources.

In the telegram, August specifically mentioned that among the so-called "special resources", there is a "rejuvenation potion that can extend the life of "natural humans" by 30 years." Of course, this potion is expensive, and it takes about 100,000 gold coins to exchange for one.

Moreover, this is the internal welfare price.

If it weren't for Xing Tianli's special identity, normal people wouldn't even be qualified to hear about this kind of rejuvenation potion. Augustus even pointed out that the Holy Mother Church behind Di Si was able to receive the full support of the current Queen Mother of Dayu Dynasty, and even the Queen Mother herself became a devout believer of the Holy Mother Church, precisely because of a rejuvenation potion tailored for the Queen Mother!
Xing Tianli looked at the telegram and remained silent for a long while.

Longevity, life extension...

Oh, since ancient times, how many kings and generals have been obsessed with the word "immortality", even the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty was like this. Once the queen mother of the Dayu Dynasty and those princes and nobles tasted the beauty of the rejuvenation potion, well, the Dayu Dynasty was completely hopeless.

Just from this telegram, Xing Tianli could judge the extent to which the Holy Mother Church had infiltrated the high-level officials of the Dayu Dynasty.

Xing Tianli asked the blond man to file the telegram and walked out of the telegraph room. In the primitive jungle outside Jinshan Town, the low roars of wild beasts continued to be heard, and all kinds of strange noises mixed up the whole jungle with smoke and miasma.

In the evening, descendants of the Xingtian clan returned from the jungle one after another.

Xing Tianren, who was square, big-eared and had a solemn face, together with several of his brothers, used a special rope to pull a nearly ten-foot-long, extremely terrifying black and green striped python, and walked into the business office with their heads held high.

Inside the Commercial Office, the English staff, guards, and hired native maids were all terrified and screamed "Holy Mother" at the top of their lungs. The natives in particular were so frightened that they fell to their knees, muttering incomprehensible mantras and bowing down to Xing Tianren and the others.

Xing Tianren came to Xing Tianli with great interest, and bowed to him: "Big brother!"

Xing Tianren is more than twice as old as Xing Tianli. In his early thirties, he is already the father of several children. But within the Xingtian clan, the term "eldest brother" has a special meaning.

Among brothers of the same generation, no matter if they are from the direct line or the side branch, the one with the biggest fist will be the "big brother" of this generation. In the past, before the world fell into the last days of the law, at the end of each year, during the ancestral worship ceremony of the Xingtian clan, the younger brothers of the same generation would always shake their fists and compete to see who would be the "big brother".

Xing Tianren is older than Xing Tianli. As Xing Tianli is in the clan, he calls him "brother".

But the word "big brother" can only be used by Xing Tianli. The 15,000 Xing Tian clan members in Black Borneo, as well as the thousands of underage brothers of the same generation as Xing Tianli who remain in Nanxun Town, all have to call him "big brother"!
"What a fierce fellow!" Xing Tianli walked up to the python, which was beaten unconscious and twitching as if it was having a nightmare, and exclaimed sincerely: "What a good fellow! If it weren't for the limitations of heaven and earth, this fellow would have been able to transform into a dragon, right?"

What a big python! Xing Tianli’s soul peeked at it and thought that this guy was probably three to five hundred years old.

It should have been born at the beginning of the end of the world, and it got some of the legacy before the end of the world. Its physique is obviously much larger than that of an ordinary python. Its blood is extremely rich, and it has almost condensed into a sticky, pure gelatin in its body. It has great strength and is extremely terrifying. If it weren't for Xing Tianren and a group of brothers from the same family working together, they would not be able to deal with it at all.

Before the end of the Dharma, this guy would have definitely turned into a dragon.

Its blood, its physical strength, and even its intelligence have already surpassed the limits of a python.

Pity!
In this world, unless there is a heaven-defying fortune, such as Xing Tianli deliberately creating it, it is impossible for a dragon to appear. Moreover, even if Xing Tianli infuses it with the primordial Qi and turns it into a dragon, what can it do?
In this Dharma-Ending Age, a dragon is like a whale thrown into the desert and has no way to survive.

Unless Xing Tianli keeps it by his side and constantly infuses it with the Primordial Qi to maintain its survival.

But how is this possible?

"Brother! Please sit down!" Just in front of the main building of the Business Office, in the spacious square, Xing Tianli asked Xing Tianren to take off his upper body clothes and let him sit cross-legged.

In fact, there is no need for these fancy gimmicks, but Xing Tianli did it anyway.

He took out a dark jade bowl that looked quite evil, took some of Xing Tianren's blood, and took some blood plasma from the python. After mixing the two bloods together, Xing Tianli added some poisonous snake teeth, scorpion tails, centipede arms and legs, toad hearts and other materials that made people feel uncomfortable.

Holding the jade bowl in both hands, he pretended to chant a spell, and then Xing Tianli swam around Xing Tianren in a swift manner. As his sleeves rolled up, strong winds whistled in all directions, and Xing Tianli left dozens of afterimages in front of countless people.

Countless people exclaimed again.

The Yingjishi staff, guards, and natives were all stunned.

In their hearts, they inexplicably felt an immense amount of awe towards Xing Tianli - if their emotions could be digitized, they would be able to see a series of numbers like 'loyalty plus one' and 'awe plus one' floating above their heads.

This is exactly the effect that Xing Tianli wants to achieve.

Otherwise, would he have gone crazy and performed a shaman dance in public?

In the jade bowl, blood suddenly burst into flames. The color of the flame was an extremely ancient bronze. The fist-sized flame was incredibly bright, illuminating the entire yard in emerald green. Even the sunset light was obscured by the color of the flame.

Xing Tianli took out a large fish bone with a strange shape, dipped some of the blood that turned green after burning, and drew a lot of weird symbols on Xing Tianren's back and chest that he himself could not understand.

Then he did the same thing around the python.

After a lot of tricks, Xing Tianli shouted a secret spell, formed seals with his hands, and truly performed the "Seal of the Wild Witch Taming Beasts". In the ancient times, this secret technique was called the "Seal of the Beast Slave" by those great witches with bad personalities!
A secret spell almost shattered the python's soul. A wisp of soul was drawn from Xing Tianren's mind, condensed into a soul seal that controlled life and death, and smashed into the python's soul. Then a mouthful of Taichu Qi was sprayed out, swirling around the almost shattered soul of the python, and the python's soul was restored to its original state.

However, at the core of the python's soul, Xing Tianren's soul imprint was shining brightly, and had already been parasitic in the depths of the python's soul.

From then on, Xing Tianren's soul seal could absorb the python's blood and energy, constantly nourishing and strengthening itself - for the python, this was just a trivial burden, it only needed to eat one more rabbit every three to five days to make up for this loss.

However, all of Xing Tianren's thoughts could be conveyed to the giant python through this soul seal.

He could even destroy the python's soul in a single thought, drain all of its energy and spirit in an instant, transform it into his own blood and essence, integrate it into himself, and turn it into his own strength!
Fierce and cruel, it can be called "cruel" to the beasts controlled by the soul seal!
When alive, one has to be a slave and a servant. Once dead or the master is in danger, one must offer all his energy and spirit to the master to squander at will. This is the horror of the "Beast Slave Mark".

This is the way the great wizards who dominated the world in ancient times acted!
Not only that, according to the "witch contract" drawn up by Xing Tianli, in the future, 50% of the essence and blood extracted from the python's daily eating, drinking, defecating and urinating will be fed back to Xing Tianren.

Xing Tianren ate and drank as much as he wanted in a day, but he could not eat more than a dozen kilograms of meat and a hundred kilograms of rice.

This python, which is over ten feet long, can easily eat two cows in one meal. The amount of Qi and blood it can transform is at least a hundred times that of Xing Tianren. With the help of this python, Xing Tianren's strength improvement speed will be accelerated by more than a hundred times!
Xing Tianli remembered the Xiangliu white viper he met in Xiaolongqiu Town.

He probably didn't have such a secret method. If he did, even if he was beheaded, he wouldn't need ten years to replenish the essence and blood he consumed that day!

If Xiangliu Baiviper also had such a beast slave, as long as he could provide enough meat, at most three months would be enough to replenish his consumed life essence. Ten years versus three months, this is at least a forty-fold efficiency difference.

"Do! Silas!" Xing Tianli felt very ashamed and yelled a spell that the Yingjishi and the natives could not understand. This spell was also made up by him and had no effect at all.

It was also impossible for him to recite a truly effective spell in front of these people.

After all, among the people present, there were also the nine Tatas under Oger's command. How could Xing Tianli reveal even a trace of the "real stuff" in front of them?
The inexplicable spell scared everyone present.

Then they saw that the giant python, which had been beaten unconscious, suddenly became energetic, its body shook, and the ropes on its body fell off. It raised half of its body high, and its fierce golden eyes glanced around. It leaned forward and nodded three times towards Xing Tianli with great awe, then put its huge head in front of Xing Tianren.

This big guy spit out a several-foot-long pitch-black snake tongue and licked Xing Tianren's chest affectionately. It looked like a puppy acting coquettishly!
"Merciful Virgin!"

Inside the Commercial Office, several female employees of the British government dropped to the ground with a thud, frightened by this incredible scene.

Such a ferocious and savage python was subdued by Xing Tianli's terrible "witchcraft". Then, wouldn't these delicate, pitiful and powerless Yingji beauties also become submissive if Xing Tianli wanted?

They are not just afraid.

They are actually moisturized.
