Chapter 150 Bamboo-eating Beast
Chapter 150 Bamboo-eating Beast
Actually, before the Xuanbing Rabbit attacked, Song Qiao could vaguely smell a scent that didn't belong to the four of them. He found it strange at the time, but then there were too many things to do and the scents were too mixed, so he didn't pay attention to it for a while.
However, after they left, the faint scent of bamboo lingered around them and became more and more obvious, which made Song Qiao pay more attention. It wasn't until he heard a rumbling sound from under the snow that he realized that a demonic beast had been following them all along!
However, this monster seems a bit too endearing, and it also looks somewhat familiar...
Song Qiao frowned and pondered for a moment, then took out the Cloud Realm Monster Atlas and began to peruse it.
Chu Wenqing was so charmed he almost had a nosebleed. He resisted the urge to get closer and squatted down to examine it closely. "So cute~ Where did this panda come from?"
Su Luo also squatted down and casually guessed, "It should be unique to this secret realm. Its body is covered in snow-white fur, which is quite different from ordinary pandas."
"You have a point."
Chu Wenqing nodded, then took a few steps forward, wanting to touch it, but he was afraid the beast would suddenly go berserk and bite him. After all, the seemingly cute Xuanbing Rabbit had left them with a deep psychological trauma.
Chu Wenqing was so anxious that he scratched his head and said helplessly, "Oh! I really want to touch this panda!"
In modern times, he would never have had the chance to touch a national treasure. Now, in the novel, he finally has a chance, but he's afraid to touch it because he's worried his hand will be bitten off. Waaah! That's so tragic!
Not only him, Su Luo also wanted to pet the panda. However, since she didn't know the panda's origin or personality, she had to hold back for the time being.
The commotion around Su Luo quickly caught Feng Xiyue's attention, and she hurried over to ask what was going on: "What happened? Wow, what an adorable monster!"
Feng Xiyue stared intently at the panda, not daring to blink, and followed Su Luo and the others, squatting down to watch the panda together.
And just like that, the number of people who were charmed by this adorable monster increased by one more.
Just then, the adorable little panda slowly sat up straight, stretched, tilted its head, looked at the group, and let out a soft cry.
The three of them were so cute they almost fainted, and they all let out soft screams.
"Ahhh~ It just stretched!"
"So cute! So adorable!!"
"The sound is so cute! Ahhh! I forgot to record this scene. No, I must record it!" After saying that, Chu Wenqing started looking for the recording stone.
“However, I feel like I’ve seen this monster somewhere before…” Feng Xiyue snapped out of her excitement and looked at it more and more, feeling like she had seen it somewhere before, and couldn’t help but mutter to herself.
She then turned to Song Qiao and asked, "Junior brother, do you know him?"
Song Qiao had been flipping through the Cloud Realm Monster Atlas and happened to find it. When he saw the page clearly, he couldn't help but exclaim, "This, this is a Bamboo-Eating Beast!"
"What?! A bamboo-eating beast?!" Feng Xiyue was stunned. She turned her head and stared at the bamboo-eating beast in front of her in disbelief, her eyes bursting with intense joy.
"It's a bamboo-eating beast! Good heavens!"
Chu Wenqing's eyes lit up, his focus completely shifting, "A bamboo-eating beast? That means it eats bamboo!"
It eats bamboo and looks like a panda, so isn't it their national treasure, the giant panda?
Su Luo noticed Song Qiao and Feng Xiyue's overjoyed expressions and instinctively felt that this demonic beast was not simple. She asked, "Judging from your expressions, is it very rare?"
The fact that Feng Xiyue and the others are so excited suggests that this cultivation-themed panda must be something special.
"Rare! Extremely rare!"
Feng Xiyue nodded emphatically, "Historical records say that the bamboo-eating beast was the mount of the ancient gods, and a very powerful spirit pet! However, the great war between gods, demons, and immortals led to the extinction of the bamboo-eating beast. I didn't expect that there would still be one in this Cloud Realm!"
"A spirit beast?"
Surprisingly, this was a spirit beast. Su Luo couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "This is the first time I've ever seen a spirit beast."
Because of the great war a thousand years ago, the spiritual energy on this cultivation continent has become scarce. Various races are vying for spiritual energy and cultivation resources, and gradually many things have changed. Among them, beasts have become predominantly demonic beasts, with a small number of magical beasts existing only in the Demon Realm, and spirit beasts have become extremely rare. It is said that the few famous spirit beasts are protected in the Demon Realm, and ordinary cultivators cannot even enter the Demon Realm, let alone see any spirit beasts.
I never expected that this Cloud Realm would even have spirit beasts! And giant pandas at that!!
Su Luo began to feel fortunate that she had unexpectedly arrived in the Cloud Realm. Here, she had gained countless rare spiritual plants and magical treasures, and now she had even seen a national treasure of the cultivation world! This trip was so worthwhile!
"Yes, this bamboo-eating beast is also known as the Snow Jade Panda. It is not only a rare spiritual beast in the world, but also the only known healing spiritual beast! It is said that its breath can not only heal wounds and quickly restore spiritual power, but also purify all polluted things!"
Chu Wenqing hissed, "Wow, that's amazing!"
After Feng Xiyue finished speaking, she took out a recording stone and pointed it at the bamboo-eating beast. "Junior brother, you're right! I have to record this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity so that I can show it to Master and the others when we get back and let them have their opinions!"
"Oh right! I almost forgot if my senior sister hadn't mentioned it!" Not to be outdone, Chu Wenqing quickly raised the photo-recording stone as well.
Although Su Luo was also itching to record the video, she was more interested in knowing if she could touch the panda, so she turned to Song Qiao for advice.
Song Qiao hesitated for a moment, then said uncertainly, "It should be possible... but I'm not sure... Here's the detailed information, Su Luo, why don't you take a look?"
Su Luo smiled and thanked him, then quickly took the diagram and began to examine it.
The bamboo-eating beast found these human cultivators extremely noisy, especially the two cultivators who were chattering away at it; the way they looked at it was terrifyingly fanatical!
So the bamboo-eating beast shrank back and then stretched out its paws to try to push them away, but because its paws were too short to reach them, it looked to the group as if it was just waving hello in a friendly manner.
This action immediately drew screams from Chu Wenqing and the other person, and even Song Qiao was drawn to it.
"It waved at me!!! So cute!! Ahhh~ I'm going to faint from cuteness!"
"Mmm! So cute! Everything it does is adorable!"
"This...this is actually quite cute..."
Bamboo-eating beast: Human cultivators are terrifying! It wants to go home, but it has no home anymore, so it can only find a caretaker for itself.
Thinking of this, the bamboo-eating beast turned its head to look at the blue-clad girl not far away.
However, Su Luo did not notice this. Her attention was entirely on the diagram, and she immediately spotted the adult bamboo-eating beast in the diagram, with various annotations next to it.
After glancing over the descriptions of the bamboo-eating beast's various abilities, Su Luo looked down and finally found the description she wanted to read.
"Bamboo-eating beasts are gentle and dislike fighting. They don't easily come into contact with people, but once tamed, you can sign a guardian contract with them and keep them as spirit pets. Spirit pets can talk to their masters, and in battle, bamboo-eating beasts can play an irreplaceable supporting role. They can not only help their masters restore their spiritual power, but also prevent their masters from getting injured."
Upon seeing this, Su Luo was overjoyed.
This spirit beast is not only gentle, but it can also sign a guardian contract and talk to its master! Interesting! Very interesting! If we could capture it, it would not only be of great benefit to them, but it might even help them clear this Mystic Ice Realm as quickly as possible!
She couldn't let such a golden opportunity slip by! She had to give it a try!
After thinking it through, Su Luo returned the map to Song Qiao. Turning around, she noticed that the bamboo-eating beast was looking at her curiously, so she gave it a very gentle smile.
"Hello, bamboo-eating beast~"
Since they are spirit beasts, they are generally intelligent, so perhaps they can communicate with them.
