Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 302 - 299: Alexandre Dumas
Chapter 302: Chapter 299: Alexandre Dumas
The process of hunting for Demon Beasts was quite intriguing, allowing one to trace the variety of marks left by them to find different kinds of Demon Beasts.
However, Qin Feng was quite picky and did not settle for ordinary Demon Beasts. Moreover, he couldn’t challenge the high-level ones. Thus, after half a day, he found no desirable Demon Beast.
Qin Feng climbed to a mountain peak, looked towards the direction behind the mountain, and saw that the forest there was relatively spacious, unlike the dense woods in other areas.
He walked forward aimlessly and, when he reached halfway up the mountain, sat on a big bluestone to rest for a while. He thought it made no sense to linger here and decided to hurry and capture a Demon Beast to take back.
A few days after returning, he planned to find an excuse to leave the Druid Tribe and explore other places.
Just then, some noise faintly came from a distance, sounding like many Demon Beasts running.
...
Qin Feng didn’t particularly care, as such Demon Beasts in groups usually weren’t very powerful.
As expected, in just a moment, he saw seven or eight Unicorns running out of the woods, with dozens of Demon Wolves relentlessly chasing them from behind.
Clearly, the Demon Wolves were hunting the Unicorns.
Unicorns were a type of equine Demon Beast, containing traces of the ninth-level Unicorn bloodline, making them fifth-level Demon Beasts. Their horns could emit lightning, which was quite powerful.
Actually, such types of Demon Beasts were relatively uncommon; otherwise, the armies of the Human Clan wouldn’t mainly rely on breeding ordinary warhorses. Any mountable Demon Beasts could fetch exceptionally high prices in human countries.
However, these valuable Unicorns were now trapped by a group of Demon Wolves in a small valley, about to become flesh in the wolves’ mouths.
Although their Lightning Magic was quite powerful, it was no match for the much better coordinated Wolf Packs.
Qin Feng rested his chin single-handedly and quietly watched the battle below without any thought of intervening.
The fights among Demon Beasts were constantly unfolding, presenting the cruellest side of nature with a stark rawness—survival of the fittest in its simplest form. He knew he had no power to change this law.
“Hee-hawrr…”
A loud horse neigh from the vicinity quickly approached the ongoing battle at the foothills.
The neigh slightly startled him.
Unlike before, this time he didn’t hear any sound of hooves touching the ground—could the arriving horse possess the Qinggong skill “Grass Flying”?
Qin Feng turned his head toward the direction of the sound, and when he finally saw the horse appearing, he was taken aback. No wonder he didn’t hear hoof sounds—it turned out this horse was far more adept than “Grass Flying;” it was actually flying.
The horse was entirely white, over ten feet long, and looked extraordinarily noble.
More importantly, it grew a pair of large silver wings on its back; it was really flying here.
“Is that… a Silver Winged Pegasus?!”
Qin Feng quickly recognized the origin of this winged Pegasus.
Initially, he thought it was another species similar to Young Master Ma Xing’s Lifebound Spiritual Beast, the Heavenly Horse. However, he soon realized it was not the case.
Heavenly Horses were Spiritual Beasts with airy and light magic power, adept at Wind Control.

The horse that swiftly flew above the treetops, however, exuded a special aura.
That aura was very pure and even somewhat sacred, making it feel very familiar to him, similar to the White Dragon he encountered yesterday.
Of course, the difference between the Silver Winged Pegasus and the White Dragon in terms of strength was truly incomparable.
Like the Unicorn, the Silver Winged Pegasus also possessed traces of the ninth-level Unicorn bloodline and shared a close bloodline relationship with the Unicorns, being one of the only two mixed-breed descendants.
However, the Silver Winged Pegasus inherited the holy Light Power of the Unicorn and was a sixth-level Demon Beast—a class higher than the Unicorns and just one level below high-level Demon Beasts.
The Silver Winged Pegasus quickly flapped its wings, swiftly descended, and before it even landed completely, it stretched out its large hooves and crushed two Demon Wolves’ bones. Then with a flurry of kicks, it sent several Demon Wolves flying. After a few quick wing flaps, it shot out more than ten Light Arrows that forced several Wolves blocking its way to flee in disarray.
Then, the Silver Winged Pegasus landed in front of the seven or eight Unicorns and let out a long “Hee-hawrr,” intimidating the group of wolves.
However, after the Wolf Pack paused their attack due to its sudden appearance, something happened that made Qin Feng’s eyes pop.
The Silver Winged Pegasus actually approached some of the female horses, rubbed its slender neck affectionately against them, appearing very tender.
Yet soon, it was abruptly pushed away by the most robust male Unicorn among them.
Obviously, the male Unicorn was quite angry.
What’s going on?
Trying to flirt with the mares of his own group right in front of himself, it’s as if he didn’t put him, the leader, in his eyes at all.
The Silver Winged Pegasus snorted disdainfully, neighed loudly, and turned its head, signaling the Unicorn leader to deal with the Demon Wolves.
The robust Unicorn of course wouldn’t go out to face the Demon Wolves alone—these herbivorous Demon Beasts usually formed groups, either confronting or swiftly fleeing from predators. It certainly didn’t have the ability to single-handedly take on so many Demon Wolves.
With an air of arrogance, the Silver Winged Pegasus held a look of disdain and scorn on its slender horse face.
At that moment, urged by the Wolf King, the wolf pack behind them launched a new round of attack.
The Silver Winged Pegasus did not join the Unicorn in resisting the pack of wolves. Instead, it spread its wings and flew up, soaring high above and unleashing Magic on the Wolf King.
The Wolf King howled, trying to have the pack attack the meddling Pegasus, but most of the Demon Wolves in the pack were too weak; their Magic would dissipate before it even reached the Silver Winged Pegasus.
However, the Silver Winged Pegasus was relentless, persistently attacking only the Wolf King.
Being of the Light Element, it could cast group attack Magic like Light Arrow Rain, single-target Magic like Holy Light Spear, supporting Magic like Holy Light Thorns, and defensive Magic like Light Barrier, and it possessed Light Healing Technique as well. Moreover, it could fly, making it a very versatile Demon Beast among the level six magical creatures.
The Wolf King below, although also a level six magical creature, was born from the Iron Claw Demon Wolf lineage. Known for topping all Demon Wolves in brute strength, its claws could tear through metal.
But when it came to Magic, it paled in comparison to the Silver Winged Pegasus. Usually, when hunting, it relied largely on the vast number of wolves in the pack. It was no match for the Silver Winged Pegasus in a one-on-one fight and certainly couldn’t reach it mid-air.
Thus, the Wolf King was swiftly defeated and, along with its pack, fled the area.
Qin Feng then watched the flirtatious Silver Winged Pegasus snuggle up to the Unicorn herd again, cozying up to the young mares.
This time, not only did the young mares not reject him, but the robust stallion also did not step forward, clearly having accepted this damned Silver Winged Pegasus’s flirting with their mares.
Next, Qin Feng witnessed just how flirtatious this Silver Winged Pegasus was; in just half an hour, the Silver Winged Pegasus had visited three female Unicorns in turn, leaving Qin Feng speechless.
Moreover, it looked as though if not for that strong, fierce Unicorn protecting the two mares behind him, the Silver Winged Pegasus might have wanted to visit every single mare in the entire Unicorn herd.
However, Qin Feng did not leave.
It wasn’t that he wanted to watch how Demon Beasts mated, but rather, he had taken a liking to this somewhat rascally Silver Winged Pegasus.
He thought the Silver Winged Pegasus was quite decent; at least the energy within it was something he had never encountered before, unlike other Demon Beasts, which mostly possessed common abilities such as Wind, Fire, Water, Earth, Thunder, and Lightning.
Moreover, he also had a Light Element Dragon Spirit Fruit on him, and after leaving the Druid Tribe, he planned to consume the Dragon Spirit Fruit to advance to the Golden Core. By then, he was sure to possess a fraction of the Light Power, and he might even awaken one or two talent skills of the Light Giant Dragon.
Now, choosing to transform into the Silver Winged Pegasus would also allow him a preliminary understanding of Light Magic. Who knows, maybe later he could comprehend the Divine Skills of the Light Type.
This kind of pure Light Power had never appeared in the Cultivation World before. Qin Feng thought if he could thoroughly comprehend the Light Element power system and integrate it into the Cultivator’s cultivation system as a side branch or a secondary Technique, it would be considered a great merit for the entire Cultivation World.
Thinking of this, Qin Feng grew increasingly excited.
However, as he looked down and saw the Silver Winged Pegasus once again lying on the back of a small mare, his face was immediately covered with frustration.
It was hard enough to find a suitable Demon Beast, and it turned out to be a damn perennial stud?
If he had more time, he would have given up on this Silver Winged Pegasus and spent several more days looking for another.
Qin Feng couldn’t wait any longer. He looked up at the sky and noticed that the Druid was still circling overhead but was quite far from him. Thus, he relaxed, stretched his arm into the shadow of the nearby blue stone.
The Ruyi Golden Snake coiled around his wrist immediately vanished into the shadows, and under his control, it moved along the mountain shadows toward the Silver Winged Pegasus below.
Then, taking advantage of the moment when the Silver Winged Pegasus was entirely focused on the small mare below, it stealthily enlarged its body, emerged from the shadow of the Silver Winged Pegasus, and bit down on its nape.
Following that, its body coiled tightly around the Silver Winged Pegasus, dragging it straight to the ground and employing the Snake Clan’s most proficient Entanglement Skill, breaking its wings and causing its bones to crack audibly.
The sudden attack terrified the Silver Winged Pegasus, making it shudder all over, almost collapsing to the ground.
With a mournful cry, its body burst with Light Magic Power, attempting to deploy a Light Barrier to protect itself from the assassination of this sudden Shadow Demon Snake.
It knew Magic Healing Technique of the Light Type, and if it could escape this Shadow Demon Snake, it could quickly heal its injuries and then fly up high, no longer having to worry about further sneak attacks from the Shadow Demon Snake.
Unfortunately, it did not realize that the Spiritual Snake using Shadow Transformation Divine Power was not a mere Shadow Demon Snake but the Ruyi Golden Snake, whose strength after reaching Core Formation was beyond what the Silver Winged Pegasus could resist.
Thus, despite its efforts, it failed to break free from the coil of the Ruyi Golden Snake; instead, the sharp teeth of the Ruyi Golden Snake even broke its neck bone.
The Silver Winged Pegasus cried out, pleading for the Unicorn to come to its aid.
The Unicorns did not abandon it and leave; instead, they stayed far away and cast Lightning Magic at the Ruyi Golden Snake.
The Ruyi Golden Snake pretended to be severely injured by the lightning, released the Silver Winged Pegasus, and quickly disappeared into the shadows.
Midway up the hill, Qin Feng stood up, a look of thrilled surprise on his face as if he had snagged a great bargain, and dashed swiftly down the mountain.
