Chapter 12 of "Beast Tamer Ascension" unveils a new twist: Chapter 12: The Legend of the Red Fox “Junior Brother, are you planning to enter Tiger... See what happens!

Chapter 12: The Legend of the Red Fox “Junior Brother, are you planning to enter Tiger Mountain for training?” Ouyang asked. “I have this idea, but now that the tiger demon is present, we’ll have to switch to another peak,” Lin Jing replied helplessly. Walking also consumes a lot of energy. He needed to ask what identity one needed to ride a celestial crane. At that moment, Lin Jing realized the benefits of choosing an ox as a pet beast; along the way, he had seen many disciples riding their oxen. As for him, it was the pet beast that was riding him—how excessive! Hearing this, Ouyang looked at the peak guardian. “Elder, I’ve come to subdue the tiger demon.” The peak guardian glanced at Ouyang Hao and said, “I see. You may enter.” Ouyang smiled and looked back at Lin Jing, saying, “Junior Brother, would you like to come with me? Once I subdue the tiger demon, you’ll be able to train normally.” “Is that allowed?” Lin Jing was surprised. “Of course! With me here, there won’t be any accidents.” Ouyang turned to the peak guardian again and asked, “Elder, may I bring this junior brother along?” “Go ahead,” the elder replied, seemingly unfazed by Ouyang’s strength. “You two go; I’ll continue writing my self-reflection.” He looked quite annoyed. …… “Ouyang, what’s the elder’s self-reflection about?” Lin Jing asked after they entered Tiger Mountain. “The tiger demon’s presence was caused by the unexpected birth of a spirit plant, which the elder failed to notice in time, allowing a wild monster to eat it. He definitely has to write a self-reflection letter to repent and face punishment.” “He must hate that tiger demon now. Unfortunately, he can’t handle it directly. When a monster hasn’t harmed anyone yet, the sect’s first consideration is to subdue it rather than kill it.” “Subduing a monster is also a technical job. As long as the situation isn’t too severe, it’s given to promising disciples in the sect to try and train themselves.” “After all, subduing wild monsters is a fundamental skill that our Beast Taming Sect disciples must master.” “As disciples, we could perhaps choose from the spirit beasts and monsters cultivated in the sect to contract. However, to go further, we need to venture into the vast cultivation world to find and subdue those powerful beings!” “The reason I wanted to bring you along is to show you how I subdue a wild monster and make it willingly submit,” Ouyang said with concern. “Now I understand,” Lin Jing said, surprised. “I thought you were here for the tiger whip.” Ouyang Hao: “If this tiger demon doesn’t submit to my teachings, I can only accept it with a smile.” Lin Jing and Ouyang chose to walk through the forest, surrounded by the sounds of chirping birds and insects—a peaceful ambiance, though they still had a distance to cover before reaching the tiger demon. At that moment, Lin Jing suddenly remembered a question he hadn’t yet resolved! Elder Mo mentioned that when Ouyang becomes a true disciple, he might take the sect master as his teacher! The reason was not mentioned, which piqued Lin Jing’s curiosity. Searᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He had forgotten to ask about it during their last visit to the scripture pavilion, so this time he intended to seize the opportunity to inquire directly. “Brother, I heard that the sect master intends to take you as a disciple?” “You know about this? Has it spread to the outer sect?” Ouyang looked back in surprise. “Well, not exactly; Elder Mo told me,” Lin Jing replied, clearing his throat. “Brother, please teach me! How did you achieve that?” Only true disciples could learn the sect’s genuine secret techniques, which meant becoming a core member of the Beast Taming Sect. To become a true disciple, one condition was to take a master with Golden Core cultivation or above. Taking on a master was akin to a second birth, and having a good master would make the path of cultivation smoother. It was impressive that Ouyang could connect with the sect master. “This…” Ouyang looked at Lin Jing strangely, then suddenly shook his head. “Junior Brother, my situation may not be suitable for you.” “What do you mean?” Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Mouse pressed for details. Ouyang sighed, stopped walking, and after pondering for a moment, said with a hint of regret, “Forget it; it’s not a secret. I’ll tell you, but remember not to spread it.” “I recall that you took books about the history of the Beast Taming Sect from the scripture pavilion, right?” “The first sect master of our Beast Taming Sect was a mortal. This type of body had no fate with the path of immortality, but he had a fortunate encounter and obtained the Beast Taming techniques from the Immortal Palace.” “The techniques from the Immortal Palace focus on enslaving beasts; a cultivator’s intent could determine the life or death of their contracted beast. With these techniques, he enslaved countless powerful monsters and reached the Transformation God stage, causing the Beast Taming Sect to flourish.” “However, forcibly enslaving pets ultimately has its drawbacks, and he eventually perished due to a backlash from the very beasts he had enslaved.” “Learning from this lesson, the second sect master began to consider how the relationship between beast tamers and their beasts should truly be. He concluded that the relationship should not only be master and servant but also companions and kin.” “Thus, he initiated reforms within the sect, encouraging disciples to cultivate alongside young beasts from the Qi training period, strengthening their bond instead of forcibly enslaving wild monsters. Even if they were to subdue wild beasts, it should be through genuine acknowledgment and followership, not coercion.” “The second sect master laid a solid foundation for the Beast Taming Sect, and this tradition has been passed down to this day. Originally, this was already perfect, but up until now…the fifth-generation sect master, who is the current sect master, has further deepened the emotional bond with their beasts.” “He has become true kin with his contracted beasts.” Lin Jing was speechless. This was information not recorded in the books. “Which beast is it?” Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Mouse were both shocked. “It’s the one from the Heavenly Feather Crane clan…though it hasn’t been publicly acknowledged among disciples, it could be referred to as the sect master’s wife,” Ouyang said respectfully. At this moment, Lin Jing’s mind was still a bit confused. Wait, wait! “So, brother, you’re favored by the sect master. Does that mean…” Lin Jing suddenly fell silent. “Yeah,” Ouyang sighed. “Hong’er was a small fox I rescued during my mortal days. After that, she became very attached to me, and I kept her by my side.” “Until Elder Mo brought me back to the Beast Taming Sect, and I performed a blood contract with Hong’er, that’s when I realized she had developed that kind of affection for me.” “Even though she’s a beast, her feelings are genuine. Such sincerity shouldn’t be betrayed, right, Junior Brother?” Lin Jing looked up at the sky. Everything had been unraveled. However, considering this was a world of cultivation, Lin Jing no longer struggled with the differences in species. It was just that the “Legend of the White Snake” had transformed into “The Legend of the Celestial Crane” and “The Legend of the Red Fox.” “Best wishes to you both,” Lin Jing said. “Zhi, zhi…”
