Chapter 383: Chapter 23: Seeing Tang Ji Again _3

“What are these symbols…?”

“Well, these are called numbers, representing ‘one, two, three, four…’ I discovered them in an ancient cultivator’s notes. They are very useful for recording every detail about each Spirit Beast, and they make quantifying and comparing things much easier.”

“I see! It is indeed quite convenient.”

Tang Ji, who had traveled around different kingdoms and seen a lot, had come across similar symbols before, so he quickly grasped the meaning of these numbers.

“And what about this? It’s a bit strange.”

“This is called an alphabet… a guiding map…”

Tang Ji looked at the pages full of content, exclaiming at its novelty.

Nevertheless, due to his high cultivation base, he was able to quickly grasp the meaning.

He turned page after page in Wang Ba’s records.

At first, his expression was calm and his gaze was filled with a hint of curiosity and nonchalance.

But gradually, before he knew it, his page-turning speed slowed.

The casual look in his eyes gradually turned serious.

When he saw some of the contents summarized by Wang Ba, he couldn’t help but frown, pondering seriously.

He was engrossed in what he saw.

Wang Ba didn’t rush him, idly drinking his tea and contemplating.

Suddenly, Tang Ji sat up straight, a heavy look in his eyes as he stared at the contents of the records. His eyes revealed a hint of shock.

He suddenly looked up at Wang Ba:

“You mentioned here that by repeatedly refining and tracing the bloodline of the Spirit Beasts, there is hope to truly reproduce their ancestors?”

Unprepared for the question, Wang Ba blinked, then nodded:

“This is just speculation. The bloodline of Spirit Beasts has already lost much of its inherited information throughout continual reproduction. Therefore, tracing this lineage is a daunting task. It’s virtually impossible unless we gather every branch descended from the same ancestor.”

“Actually, we might not even need to do this. I speculate that mutated Spirit Beasts might be a form of tracing their ancestral bloodlines. We can breed countless Spirit Beasts in the hopes of encountering some mutations…”

Hearing Wang Ba’s matter-of-fact explanation, Tang Ji stared at him with an odd gleam in his eye, as though he was seeing Wang Ba for the first time.

His gaze was so intense that Wang Ba felt slightly uncomfortable.

“Tang, what’s wrong?”

Tang Ji shook his head with a complicated expression:

“Nothing, I just find it a bit hard to believe.”

“Do you realize that tracing the bloodline of Spirit Beasts is something the Immortal Ascension cultivators are working on?”

“Hmm?”

Upon hearing that, Wang Ba couldn’t help but look surprised.

Was tracing the bloodline really that complicated?

Was it not just repeatedly interbreeding different species within the same genus of Spirit Beasts, with a focus on purifying the most original bloodlines?

Of course, he knew that the process involved many areas, which he had only thought about but never had time to delve into.

But through countless trials, he had a clear understanding of the process and the direction to follow – all he was lacking were time and subjects for the experiments.

Maybe one day, when he no longer had to worry about surviving and progressing, he would be patient enough to truly dig into it.

At Wang Ba’s words, Tang Ji was at a loss for words.

“This young man has no idea how astounding his research is!”

“He is talking about artificially creating a real divine beast!”

Now his speechlessness was soon replaced by excitement!

“I once thought he was a genius of the Way of Beast Tamer, but I was wrong.”

“He is not a genius.”

“He’s an evildoer!”

“His thick compilation of records marks his understanding process of the Way of Beast Tamer, and his growth speed is like breaking unknown territory indeed!”

“Even to this day, his understanding of Spirit Beasts surpasses mine.”

“Such a man is what ‘we’ need!”

With of thought, Tang Ji made up his mind quietly.

At this moment, Wang Ba sighed uncontrollably:

“Such a pity, I still haven’t been able to breed a Class III beast…”

Tang Ji was about to say something comforting, but suddenly he hesitated.

Looking cautiously around, Tang Ji started speaking:

“Shen, technically, I shouldn’t tell you this, but given your talent, entering the Third layer is a matter of time. Therefore, I’ll tell you directly.”

Being affected by Tang Ji’s seriousness, Wang Ba sat straighter:

“Please speak up, Tang.”

Tang Ji cut to the chase:

“Your talent for the Way of Beast Tamer is so high that as soon as you qualify to enter the third layer, I will make an exception and find a good mentor for you!”

Upon hearing that, Wang Ba immediately felt a surge of energy.

“May I know the cultivation level of this mentor?”

“I assure you, he’s definitely better than me, with vast knowledge in the Way of Beast Tamer. As for the specifics, I’m afraid I cannot tell you because of the rules,” Tang Ji sincerely replied.

Wang Ba was overjoyed.

Tang Ji is one of the few opponents in the Golden Core stage, but this mentor is higher ranked, could this mentor have reached the Nascent Soul stage?

After being thrilled for a moment, he became worried again.

He still didn’t have the materials necessary for Wu Monkey King, and he hadn’t been able to acquire the White Dragon Sulfur required for Jia 15.

So his most pressing issue was how to enter the third layer.

Wang Ba couldn’t help but ask for Tang Ji’s assistance, hoping that the other man could sell him some White Dragon Sulfur. Tang Ji didn’t decline, but after rummaging through his storage ring, he regretfully said:
