From a loser to an immortal sage

Chapter 170 The Amazing Skill of Taming Immortal Beasts

The man in black's words were like a bucket of ice water, extinguishing the hope that had just been ignited in my heart.

The black whistle in his hand exuded an unsettling aura, and I instinctively sensed danger.

The air around them seemed to freeze. The disciples of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain whispered among themselves, occasionally casting worried glances at each other.

Elder Feng walked to my side and whispered, "Be careful, that whistle seems to be able to control the minds of celestial beasts."

I clenched my fists, trying to stay calm.

I cannot back down, and I cannot let Yanlang fall into the hands of this man in black.

I took a deep breath and tried to communicate with the Flame Wolf again, conveying my determination and courage to it.

"Xiao Yao, give up," the Moon Fairy's cold voice rang out. "How could a piece of trash like you, without any spiritual roots, possibly tame a Flame Wolf? You should just obediently give up your chance." Several disciples behind her echoed her sentiments, their tone full of sarcasm.

I gritted my teeth and ignored her.

I stared intently at the Flame Wolf, trying to find a way to break through.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind, and I remembered an ancient animal taming technique that Lingxin had once taught me—taming animals with one's heart.

This is an extremely dangerous technique that requires the tamer to completely open their mind and establish the deepest connection with the mythical beast.

If you are not careful, you will be devoured by the mythical beast.

I hesitated for a moment, but when I thought of the whistle in the man in black's hand, I finally decided to take the plunge.

I closed my eyes and focused all my attention on the Flame Wolf.

I could sense its unease, its anger, and the vulnerability hidden deep within its heart.

I tried to soothe it, to understand it, to empathize with it...

Just as I was about to succeed, a furry little beast suddenly darted out from the crowd and pounced straight at the Flame Wolf.

The Flame Wolf suddenly raised its head and let out a deafening roar, its eyes filled with vigilance and hostility.

I turned around abruptly and saw a barely perceptible cold smile curl up at the corner of Fairy Mingyue's lips... "You..." I pointed at her, but couldn't say anything.

The furry little beast, like a flash of white lightning, charged straight at the Flame Wolf.

It was small in size but exceptionally agile, circling around the Flame Wolf's massive body as if in a provocation.

As expected, the Flame Wolf's attention was drawn to it, and its eyes, which had almost calmed down, blazed with ferocity again. Its deep roar made my eardrums buzz.

Elder Feng glanced at me with concern and sighed softly.

The surrounding disciples began to whisper among themselves.

"That's it, Xiao Yao definitely won't be able to tame the Flame Wolf." "I knew it, how could a piece of trash without spiritual roots possibly do it?" "Fairy Mingyue is really amazing, she easily ruined Xiao Yao's efforts." These words pierced my heart like needles, and I felt like a clown being laughed at by everyone.

The disciples behind Fairy Mingyue were even more arrogant, one of them speaking in a particularly sharp and sarcastic voice: "Look at her pathetic state, it's hilarious. She thinks she's some kind of beast-taming genius, doesn't she even know her own limitations?"

I gritted my teeth, suppressing the humiliation and anger in my heart.

My spiritual energy was almost depleted from the previous consumption, and I felt my vision blurring and my body swaying precariously.

Manager Zhao stood at a distance, expressionless, as if none of this concerned him.

The roar of the Flame Wolf grew louder and louder, and I felt my mind was about to collapse.

Just then, I suddenly felt a strong wave of dizziness, my legs went weak, and I almost fell to the ground.

A warm hand supported me, and when I looked up, it was Lingxin.

She looked at me with concern and said softly, "Xiao Yao, are you alright?"

I shook my head and gave a weak smile.

Fairy Mingyue glanced at me disdainfully, her tone full of sarcasm: "It seems that the outcome of this beast taming competition has already been decided."

Just when I was about to despair, something suddenly occurred to me... Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, a special magnetic field... I looked up at my surroundings, and a bold idea popped into my mind.

I took a deep breath, mustered my strength, and slowly stretched out my hand towards the direction of the Flame Wolf... "Come with me."

I took a deep breath, mustered my strength, and slowly stretched out my hand towards the direction of the Flame Wolf.

"Follow me." I didn't look at Fairy Mingyue and her swaggering little beast. I knew I had to succeed.

I led the Flame Wolf deeper into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, a place rarely visited by people. There existed a unique magnetic field there that could soothe the frenzied immortal beasts.

The secret I discovered by accident has now become my last hope.

As expected, the Flame Wolf was affected by the magnetic field. Its restless pace gradually slowed down, and the fierce light in its eyes gradually faded.

I was overjoyed and continued to guide it toward the center of the magnetic field.

"What is she doing?" the disciple behind Fairy Bright Moon sneered. "Is she trying to lure Flame Wolf into some kind of trap? What a pipe dream!"

The Moon Fairy narrowed her eyes, seemingly seeing through my intentions. She snorted coldly and ordered her snow-white little beast, "Go, destroy that place!"

Upon receiving the command, the little beast transformed into a streak of white light and headed straight for the center of the magnetic field. My heart sank. If the magnetic field were destroyed, all my efforts would be in vain!

"Don't even think about it!" I rushed forward without hesitation and stood in front of the little beast.

My spiritual energy was almost depleted, and I could only barely muster a tiny bit of it to try and stop it.

"Overestimating yourself!" Fairy Mingyue sneered.

The little beast pounced on me without mercy, its sharp claws gleaming coldly.

I gritted my teeth, mobilized the last bit of spiritual power in my body, and guided the power of the magnetic field to form a barrier, which bounced the little beast back.

The little beast let out a sharp cry, seemingly startled. Fairy Mingyue's expression changed; she clearly hadn't expected me to use the power of the magnetic field to retaliate.

The Flame Wolf seemed to sense the fluctuations in the magnetic field as well. It paced back and forth uneasily, and there seemed to be a hint of... doubt in its eyes as it looked at me.

I struggled to keep my balance, and walked step by step toward the Flame Wolf, reaching out to gently stroke its rough fur.

“Don’t be afraid,” I whispered, “I won’t hurt you.”

The Flame Wolf didn't flinch; it stood there quietly, letting me stroke it. I felt its body tremble slightly, as if...responding to me?

Fairy Mingyue's face turned ashen as she watched this scene. "Let's go!" she said angrily, flicking her sleeves as she left.

As I watched her departing figure, a faint smile appeared on my lips.

However, just when I thought I was about to succeed, the Flame Wolf suddenly let out a low growl and took a few steps back... It stared at me with a complex and unreadable expression.

I clutched my aching chest and watched Yanlang retreat, my heart sinking.

Did your actions just now frighten it?

Just as I was feeling uneasy, Yanlang's eyes changed.

It is no longer hostile and wary, but rather...inquiry?

It slowly approached me, its huge wolf head lowered, and it sniffed me.

The warm breath sprayed onto my face, and I nervously held my breath, afraid to move.

It circled me a few times, making low whimpering sounds, as if it were thinking about something.

I tentatively reached out my hand again, and this time, it didn't flinch.

I gently stroked its fur, feeling the tension and relaxation of its muscles.

“Thank you,” I whispered, “thank you for believing in me.” Flame Wolf raised his head, a strange light gleaming in his golden eyes.

It lowered its head and nuzzled my shoulder with its huge wolf head, as if responding to my words.

At that moment, I felt that its defenses had finally lowered a little.

I could even sense its deep-seated loneliness and longing.

“I will help you,” I said firmly, stroking its mane. “I will help you find the freedom that belongs to you.”

The Flame Wolf seemed to understand me, letting out a low growl with a hint of excitement in its voice.

I was overjoyed; it seemed my method had worked.

I guided the Flame Wolf toward the center of the magnetic field, and it obediently followed behind me, its eyes full of trust.

Just when I thought everything was going in a good direction, I sensed a strange aura emanating from the Flame Wolf.

This feeling... makes me uneasy.

I looked up at the Flame Wolf's golden eyes, and a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in my heart.

The Flame Wolf looked at me with a complicated expression. It slowly opened its mouth, revealing sharp fangs, and a deep voice sounded in my ear: "Human, do you really... understand me?"
