[Classic of Mountains and Seas + monster refinement + equipment crafting + subtle behind-the-scenes scheming + light comedy]
The short version: A player who runs five accounts to grind for currency transmigrates to an eccentric beast-taming sect in a cultivation world. He learns eccentric beast-taming and gets started by rerolling pets and combining them through monster refinement.
Other beast tamers rely on emotions and bonds. Lu Mingyue doesn’t. There’s no pet a bottle of Golden Willow Dew can’t fix. And if that doesn’t work, he’ll find a breeding base and combine it with another pet through monster refinement.
“Senior Sister, your spirit pet is ready. Please come and collect it!”
The inner sect senior sister looks at the spirit beast, whose eyes are vacant and whose cultivation has fallen to the Qi Refining stage, and can’t help but doubt him. “Junior Brother Lu, are you sure this is still the spirit beast I raised from a baby?”
“Of course, Senior Sister. How could you not recognize your own beloved pet?”
“But she...”
“Trust me, Senior Sister. This is a normal side effect of improving a spirit pet’s bloodline. It’s only natural to have a few side effects when its ancestral bloodline awakens, right?”
Seeing the doubt in her eyes, Lu Mingyue takes out a stack of beast-taming manuals and says:
“Senior Sister, if you’re not happy with it, I also offer skill-book services. Would you like to hear more?”
