Divine Beast Creator

"These are the conclusions. Although they haven’t undergone multiple verifications, the credibility is about eighty percent. You brought them here, could it be..."

With a hint of doubt on her face, Meng Binglan handed over a document marked "important files, handle with care" to Feng Yuan, while scrutinizing Qi Chen and his group. This place wasn’t exactly a recreational facility, and her research wasn’t particularly useful for ordinary Beastmasters.

As for coming along the way? She wouldn’t think so, given that Feng Yuan specifically came here to find her.

"Let me see... hmm, they mean that if the side effects aren’t significant, they want to try it out. True security lies in having power in one’s own hands."

Qi Chen chuckled and scratched his head. It wasn’t about lacking a sense of security; he merely felt that the Qi Realm Stance could enhance their combat abilities. After all, the frustration of being slightly inferior in strength was deeply felt during the simulated battles these past few days.

Being overwhelmed by sheer power was one thing, but in the simulated battles, it wasn’t a case of being crushed. It was just the gap in strength that made each match perilous, which is why he wanted to try the Qi Realm Stance.

"Integration? I honestly didn’t notice that effect."

Feng Yuan expressed his surprise, looking at Veronia. Moments later, he seemed to understand why he hadn’t discerned this feature, smiling as he said,

"I see, because apart from War Qichen, the ones seen were Divine Beasts, making this distinction hard to spot, right?"

If the integration for ordinary beasts is like maxing out, then for Divine Beasts, it’s definitely an overflow of attributes. Integration effects aren’t noticeable when applied to Divine Beasts, as even the slight enhancement doesn’t compare to a supportive Divine Beast Technique.

As for War Qichen, it was because Feng Yuan wasn’t familiar with their combat strength. Although they had fought together, there hadn’t been much interaction, naturally obscuring the enhancements.

"The significance of integration lies in adjusting the beast allocation for the team. For them, the effect shouldn’t be very noticeable, considering they have too few Beasts."

Meng Binglan glanced at Qi Chen and his group and stated calmly. It wasn’t a jest but rather a fact. Integration merely changes attribute allocation, so if one has only one or two Beasts, the optimized attribute allocation brings negligible improvement.

But if the number of Beasts increases, that’s another story.

Even if one sees just a 5% improvement, having three or four Beasts enhances the entire team by at least 10%.

"It’s a pity it’s limited to Beasts, Spirit Beasts require additional challenges, although this makes sense."

Continuing to browse through the report, Feng Yuan expressed some regret. The stance granted by the Stele was based on the Beastmaster, expanding the influence scope, yet this scope was limited to their Beasts, excluding Spirit Beasts.

Meng Binglan discovered through testing that for Spirit Beasts to grasp the stance, a Beastmaster with a Spirit Beast Contract must proceed with a second challenge together.

"The effect is permanent, or rather, like the psychological impact it brings: once something happens, going back is impossible."

Observing Qi Chen and his team, Meng Binglan hinted. At this moment, Feng Yuan also saw the side effect report, which included her test results and conclusions regarding the side effects.

This was Feng Yuan’s main focus during his visit, as it determined whether Qi Chen and his team could attempt the Qi Realm Stance.

According to Qi Chen and his group’s intentions, as long as the side effects are acceptable, they’ve decided to try the Qi Realm Stance.

Feng Yuan gave only minor advice and refrained from saying more, understanding that they weren’t himself. In this era of war, a slight difference in power could mean the difference between life and death.

"I see, the side effects exist, but as long as one cultivates the mind, it should be alright. That’s okay."

Rubbing his chin after reading the conclusions, Feng Yuan commented. The records were quite clear here. Based on Meng Binglan’s tests, the primary side effects of the Qi Realm Stance target emotions. Those with poor emotional control might encounter mental issues, though it doesn’t impact most Beastmasters significantly.

As for Qi Chen and his group...

Looking at Dou Yanlan, Feng Yuan hesitated before asking,

"Do you think it’s possible? It’s not just about strengthening inner shadows; it also provokes emotions. Even without bad experiences, one might still suffer the same emotional assaults."

Meng Binglan didn’t have the unsettling childhood that Dou Yanlan did. Yet, even so, her experiences were somewhat akin to War Qichen, whose experiences were notably unfavorable.

Thus, attempting a shortcut is almost impossible. Moreover, Feng Yuan worried that Dou Yanlan might lose control of her emotions, considering the level of emotional change isn’t easily resolved.

"If you want to try, it’s best to do it here with me. Long has research in this area and can help mitigate aftereffects, although I wouldn’t recommend it, given your lack of experience and insufficient cultivation of the mind."

Said Meng Binglan as she glanced at the two of them. If they insist on trying, she believes this is the most suitable place, as Feng Yuan’s capabilities in this area should be limited.

"Alright, think it over carefully before making a decision."

Smiling at Meng Binglan, Feng Yuan said as he patted Qi Chen on the shoulder and sat down on a nearby chair to slowly review the report. Earlier, he only skimmed it, not catching the details.

As for Qi Chen and his group?

Considering the data at hand, Feng Yuan judged that there weren’t major issues, and as for minor matters... he’s too lazy to bother. Though they’re good friends, he doesn’t need to intervene so much nor should he.

Understanding Feng Yuan’s intentions, Meng Binglan turned to Qi Chen and his group and said,

"The Qi Realm Stele is with me now. If you want to try, I can assist you. However, given your situation, having no issues at all is nearly impossible."

Cultivating the mind, though not greatly related to age, may start young for some, making them fearless when needed. Yet Qi Chen and his group clearly aren’t those people.

Based on her tests, typical individuals going through the Qi Realm Stele’s trial to gain the Qi Realm Stance won’t face major problems, but it’ll take about a month to gradually resolve and balance emotions.

Of course, the benefits are worth it, even if opportunities to utilize it are limited. On special occasions, it could serve as a trump card.

"We’ve already decided."

Exchanging a glance with Dou Yanlan, Qi Chen stated resolutely. With a helpless shake of her head, Meng Binglan didn’t persuade further, but remembering something, she warned,

"By the way, with your first attempt, you can only let your Beasts gain the Qi Realm Stance. I’m not sure if you have Spirit Beasts, but! Before fully recovering, you absolutely cannot challenge the Qi Realm Stele again!"

Since not everyone chooses to raise Spirit Beasts during their student years, Meng Binglan was unsure about their situation. However, she was certain that they couldn’t withstand successive challenges.

Even she, Meng Binglan, would have struggled to recover without external help. After the first trial, she was already affected; layering more challenges wouldn’t be easy.

"We understand."

Nodding solemnly, Qi Chen was not surprised that something prompting Feng Yuan’s cautiousness deserved careful handling on his part.

"It’s quite eager."

Veronia suddenly set her phone aside, speaking to Feng Yuan who was reviewing the data, then glancing at Xiao Ji. Seeing the longing and anticipation in its eyes, Feng Yuan massaged his temple and said,

"That, we’ll wait until Qi Chen and they sort it out first. But... can you handle it?"

Though the trial targets the Beastmaster, it doesn’t mean the Beasts are entirely unaffected. The trial also applies to Beasts, or rather, Beastmasters and Beasts undergo the trials as a team.

Feng Yuan was sure he would be fine; as for Xiao Ji, it was hard to say. Even if its experiences weren’t problematic, it doesn’t imply an easy pass through.

Judging by the report, Feng Yuan could ascertain that Xiao Ji would also face the same level of emotional bombardment, even if those emotions came quite inexplicably.

"It shouldn’t be a problem; the spirit of a Divine Beast is much more resilient than humans and Ordinary Spirit Beasts."

Veronia glanced at Xiao Ji answering for it. Seeing Feng Yuan still in doubt, she chuckled softly and said,

"For it, many more experiences lie ahead. At least, this won’t leave permanent scars."

"Well then..."
