Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 19 Iron-backed centipede!

"Good boy, he actually awakened the witchcraft!"

Seeing this scene, Gu Yuan's eyelids twitched. He was a little scared at first, then he stood up, swung the hatchet and smashed it down with all his strength:

"But even at this point, you still can't see the situation clearly. Are you still going to resist stubbornly?"

This blow still hit the centipede's head cleanly.

Click!

After receiving Gu Yuan's full-strength attack, an obvious crack suddenly appeared on the centipede's head, and some gray-green liquid seeped out.

After being hit on the head by Gu Yuan several times in a row, the centipede was obviously not feeling well. Its body was limp and it looked weak.

Gu Yuan was not ready to stop, and was about to continue physical taming when suddenly, the prompt of the spirit pet system appeared in front of him:

[You have captured the Ironback Centipede (red), do you want to tame it?]

Gu Yuan froze for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief:

"Did you finally catch it? Ironback Centipede, the name is quite fitting."

"agree!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yuan felt his spiritual power being continuously drawn out. After a few breaths, it condensed into a mysterious talisman, which was neither real nor virtual, and sparkled with a strange luster.

Then, with a flash of light, the talisman fell on the head of the Iron-backed Centipede, merged into it and disappeared.

The iron-backed centipede was still struggling, but as the talisman merged into its head, the whole worm suddenly froze on the spot, motionless!
The next moment, the pet system prompted again:
[Taming successful, you have obtained the pet Ironback Centipede! ]

【Ironback Centipede (Red)】

Description: A rare demonic insect with an iron-like carapace and sharp, knife-like legs. It devours forest miasma and various poisonous insects and creatures to condense its own demonic energy and toxic mist. It can cast the innate "Bone-Eroding Arrow" spell, powerful enough to corrode gold and transform iron. It has just entered its growth stage and possesses a certain level of low-level intelligence. Evolving to the "Silver-backed Centipede" requires maturing into the "Iron-backed Centipede," which consumes 5600 Dao Yun Points.
Status: seriously injured
Stage: Growth (37%)
[You have obtained the Ironback Centipede's talent "Immune to All Poisons"! ]

Gu Yuan pinched his eyebrows and felt quite tired. His head was aching slightly, like the tingling sensation after working overtime and staying up late for several days and nights. It was even more uncomfortable than the last time he tamed Ah Huang.

He didn't even want to do anything now. He just wanted to sit on the ground and have a good rest, preferably a good sleep.

This shows how much energy he spent in taming the Iron-back Centipede.

Fortunately, he succeeded in taming it!
"No wonder there's a limit on the number of tamed pets."

Now, Gu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, finally understanding why he couldn't tame the second spirit pet before he was blessed with the "Iron Teeth" talent.

If there were no limit on the number of spirit pets that could be tamed, if he forcibly tamed a second spirit pet, his spiritual power might be drained. One can imagine the consequences.

After resting for a while, Gu Yuan felt better and looked at the iron-backed centipede.

Like Ah Huang, the Iron-Toothed Rat, at this moment, Gu Yuan could feel that a wonderful connection had been formed between himself and this iron-backed centipede, and he could drive it with just a thought.

However, although this iron-backed centipede is of a higher grade and is a red spiritual pet, its intelligence is obviously not as good as Ah Huang's.

This is not surprising.

Compared to animals and birds, insects are not very intelligent. And while the Ironback Centipede's intelligence is low, its strength is immense. Its armor is practically invulnerable to weapons, and its two rows of sharp legs are incredibly lethal. Coupled with its innate ability to cast "Bone-Eroding Arrows," even an ordinary warrior wouldn't necessarily be its match.

Gu Yuan actually knew it well.

Although he had tamed this iron-backed centipede, if he had not set a trap in advance by taking advantage of its weakness, in a real fight, even ten of him would not be a match for this iron-backed centipede!
Who made this centipede capable of both offense and defense, and also have magic skills?

This is just the growth stage. If the iron-back centipede becomes a mature form, it will definitely be even more powerful!
As for receiving the Iron-backed Centipede's innate talent of "immunity to all poisons", although Gu Yuan was surprised, he was not surprised.

The information just introduced about the Iron-backed Centipede mentioned that the Iron-backed Centipede can devour the miasma in the mountains and forests, various poisonous insects and poisons, to condense its own demonic energy and poisonous mist, and can cast the innate spell "Bone-Eroding Arrow", which is powerful enough to corrode gold and turn iron.

Being able to swallow all kinds of poisons without any harm is obviously its innate skill.

Moreover, immunity to all poisons is also a very practical skill.

The world of martial arts is full of dangers. There are many ways to kill people. Using fists and weapons is the most direct one, but using poison is the most insidious one.

How many old gangsters have enjoyed a glorious life for most of their lives, but were ambushed at the last moment and ultimately capsized in the gutter, falling victim to the poison. This shows how terrible it is.

With the ability to be immune to all poisons, Gu Yuan will no longer have to worry about being poisoned.

Even if he encounters poisonous insects like the iron-backed centipede, or even enemies, he no longer has to be timid and will be more confident.

Looking at the iron-backed centipede that was pressed under the stone and no longer struggled, Gu Yuan pondered:
"Although you are a demon insect with some Taoist skills, you are still a centipede after all. In that case, I will call you Ah Wu from now on."

The iron-backed centipede seemed to understand, and its two tentacles shook slightly.

Next, Gu Yuan rolled up his sleeves and took some effort to move the stone that was pressing on A Wu.

After Ah Wu climbed out of the pit, he lay on the ground and didn't move. He was obviously a little listless and his breath was much weaker.

Obviously, Gu Yuan had used too much force just now, causing it to suffer serious injuries.

"Eat."

Gu Yuan felt no guilt at all and threw the rooster in the pit to the rooster as a way of comforting it.

Seeing his favorite rooster right in front of him, Ah Wu suddenly became energized. He swung his two tentacles back and forth, quickly crawled to the rooster's corpse, opened his fangs, and began to gnaw on it.

Ah Huang, who was hiding aside, also jumped out at this time. Its pair of bright little eyes rolled around and looked up and down at Ah Wu. It was quite curious about this new companion and seemed to be a little afraid.

But Ah Wu ignored it and continued to gnaw on the rooster.

Gu Yuan ignored Erxiao and looked at the magical medicinal plants Polygonatum sibiricum not far away.

He had been longing for the elixir for more than half a month, and now, he could finally pick it.

Without the obstruction of his guardian A Wu, Gu Yuan successfully arrived in front of the elixir Huang Jing and looked at it carefully.

After counting, Gu Yuan found that there were four plants of the magical medicine Polygonatum sibiricum in front of him. Each one was growing very well, with green leaves and exuding vitality.

The most eye-catching one among them is the one in the middle!
The stems and leaves of the other three plants are all emerald green in color, but the stems and leaves of this Polygonatum sibiricum are only faintly purple, and there are even wisps of white mist wrapped around the surface.
