A life of clearness

Chapter 124: Same Fate, Different Hearts

"It's... so beautiful." The woman's slender fingers slowly traced the ferocious face of the war beast.

The young man sneered.

The powerful big hand pinched the woman's chin, and when it moved away, a clear red mark appeared on the tip of her fair chin.

"Don't you think so?" The woman stared at the war beast with affection in her eyes.

The young man was a little unhappy. She should look at him now.

"Isn't it your war beast?" The woman chuckled and pressed her face against the beast's. The scorching heat from the beast was easily transmitted to the woman's cool face through a layer of fur.

She scratched the young man's palm with her fingertips. "Why, are you jealous already?"

The young man grasped the woman's hand with his backhand and pulled her into his arms with force.

"Who knows what it's thinking." The young man sneered, then turned around and carried the woman to the couch.

Even though the beast, which looked like a lion or a tiger, heard the cold words of its master, it did not show any anger or sadness. It was also very docile when facing the woman just now, without any of the ferocity it showed in the ring.

At this moment, it was lying in the huge courtyard, its tail flapping on the floor tiles from time to time.

Inside the room, the extremely beautiful woman hugged the young man and said softly, "I can feel that you are the same as it, both of you are monsters with cruel natures."

She smiled and said, "Be careful or you might get eaten by it one day, our new young master of the Beast Taming Sect."

……

The beautiful woman's laughter and words kept echoing in her ears, and the scene in front of Rong Qing was slowly fading away.

As soon as she emerged from the illusion, Rong Qing immediately determined that only half a breath had passed. The illusion that seemed to last a long time actually took a short time, but it left a deep impression on her.

The image of that war beast was exactly the same as the ferocious beast under the old man's seat.

So... this old man in gray robe is the boy and the young man?
Could it be that the so-called human-shaped illusion brings people into a deep memory?

Rong Qing was very sure that this ferocious beast was not an illusion, but real.

From the very beginning, it was a real existence, whether it was the aura or just Rong Qing's intuition.

"What is the relationship between this ferocious beast and the human-shaped illusion?" It was hard for her not to have doubts.

If the illusion she saw was true, then the war beast and the gray-robed old man should have a life contract.

The so-called covenant of life is extremely overbearing. Live and die together, if one party dies, the other party cannot live alone. Even if they are injured, they are one.

Of course, it is not without benefits. As long as one party's strength grows, the other party will also grow in strength.

The grey-robed old man couldn't accept it at first because he felt that this ferocious beast that looked like a lion and a tiger had no bloodline and would be difficult to advance.

This was simply bad news for a low-level disciple of the Beast Taming Sect who had ordinary aptitude and was counting on a war beast to achieve a breakthrough.

However, facts proved that the old man in gray robe was wrong. The ugly little beast that was not recorded in any map at that time was the fierce beast of today.

Transformation into a god! This means that its bloodline is extremely noble, and it also means that the old man in gray robes can also achieve transformation into a god with this.

But the biggest question is this, this beast is alive, so the old man in gray robe should also be alive. How could it become a human illusion?
"Since it is an illusion, the information in it cannot be completely true." Rong Qing could only give this explanation.

Before his eyes, the sword energy that was ejected pierced through the old man's body in an instant.

This sword energy was used before Rong Qing entered the illusion, and it obviously played its role, otherwise Rong Qing would not have escaped from the illusion so quickly. It is said that she escaped, but in fact, the disappearance of the illusion was due to the change of the humanoid illusion itself.

No wonder all the beasts that entered the Dream Ruins were hiding from the human-shaped illusion. Even though Rong Qing was at the first level of the spiritual consciousness realm, after falling into the illusion, he had no resistance at all. This was enough to show how terrifying this human-shaped illusion was.

How many fierce beasts who have transformed into gods have had their lifespans exhausted in this illusion? Or... other ways of death?

At this time, the word "trapped" had lost its target again and condensed into a light spot. This was a good thing, which meant that the humanoid illusion had lost control over Rong Qing's spiritual consciousness.

The figure of the old man in gray robe gradually faded.

"Why not use the sword power?" Fenghuang'er sent a voice message. Although the sword energy was indeed effective, the sword power in Rong Qing's hands was a powerful killing weapon, and she had never seen Rong Qing use it.

Before Rong Qing could answer, the lion-like and tiger-like beast in front of them made no sound, but rushed to the two of them very quickly. For human cultivators, the size of a Wujia beast was considered extremely large, not to mention that the size of this Wujia beast was even larger than that of a Wujia beast.

It was as if a huge mountain had fallen upon them, and the huge mouth that opened to them was like an abyss.

"Not good!" This thought flashed through the minds of both of them at the same time.

At this moment, to make matters worse, the gray-robed old man with a faint figure opened his eye that had been closed.

"No words are allowed."

Three horizontal and two vertical. The black lines faintly hold the enemy's energy, and one of the vertical lines is the most solid.

At the same time, a large number of flower branches burst out from Yao Niang's sleeves to protect Rong Qing's body.

However, it was too late, and the scene in front of Rong Qing slowly faded away...

She saw a group of people's footprints on the seashore.

Each of these people brought with them strange war beasts. Some were fierce and looked tough; some were charming, with eyes that seemed to drip with water; and some had strange and bizarre looks. What they all had in common was that they were highly skilled and their aura was no less than that of their masters.

This is why the Beast Taming Sect is so strong. The Beast Taming Sect has a special beast taming technique that can stimulate the potential of war beasts and at the same time feed back a lot of cultivation to the master. In this way, the strength of the master and the war beast are very strong. The combination of the two will not be invincible among the same level, but it will have a huge advantage.

The leader was none other than the old man in grey robe, whose cultivation level was half a step to becoming a god.

Next to him was his only war beast. This war beast was extremely jealous and tore and killed his later war beasts one by one. In consideration of the contract of the same fate, the old man in gray robe did not do anything to it. Besides, this war beast's cultivation level was indeed improving very quickly. Although it was unknown what kind it was, with such ability, there was no doubt that its bloodline was very noble. It must be some kind of ancient alien species.

In the catalogues within the Beast Taming Sect, as the grey-robed old man and his war beasts became more powerful and had more achievements, detailed portraits and illustrations had already been added to the war beasts. Even, their rankings were getting higher and higher.

"This secret place is really unique." One of the team members sighed, "I won't say anything else, there are so many resources here."

"Of course, I have never seen any records about this place." Another person laughed, "It seems that we are the first group to come here. Let's be careful and try to mark this place as a supply base for the Beast Taming Sect."

"Shut up." The old man in gray robe turned around and glared at the two people who made the noise.

They immediately fell silent. It was obvious that the old man in gray robes had great power in the Beast Taming Sect. His cruel and violent methods made others tremble with fear.

They explored carefully for a long time. Without any map, they could only rely on their own means and the special abilities of the war beasts to ensure their relative safety.

Even so, the only two living creatures who made it to the depths were the grey-robed old man and his war beast. The others…either due to carelessness, low strength, or simply bad luck, all of them lost their lives along with their war beasts.

"It's ridiculous. This kind of thing wants to confuse me." The gray-robed old man sneered at the female cultivator riding the white deer. Just a few days ago, this female cultivator and her war beast, the white deer, were still members of the team.

But now... a living dead person?
"Illusion." He looked around at his fellow disciples who appeared one after another. Some were riding war beasts and some were not. The same thing was that their eyes were staring straight at him.

The old man in gray robe patted the war beast beside him and said, "Now we can have a good feast again." His eyes were grim.

When these companions died, he let the war beasts devour their flesh and blood. The fellow disciples who came to explore this secret realm were at least at the level of Yuanhou, and the essence of their flesh and blood was a great tonic.

After his war beast devoured the flesh and blood, its aura became even stronger. The old man in gray robe also gained a lot of benefits.

The most important thing is that he actually discovered that his war beast has a special ability, which can devour illusions! With this ability, he is invincible when facing these human-shaped illusions! !

At this moment, after hearing the words of the gray-robed old man, the female cultivator riding the white deer said faintly: "Yes, it's your turn."

now you……

The old man in gray robe suddenly felt a chill in his heart. At this moment, the war beast that had been dependent on him for thousands of years opened its huge mouth.

This was the last time it obeyed his words, but it swallowed him into its mouth.

The sharp teeth pierced through his flesh in an instant, but the old man in gray robe did not feel much pain.

He only thought of the proudest moment of his life...the unattainable woman was actually lying in his arms.

"Be careful or you might get eaten by it one day." The woman narrowed her eyes and warned him.

He was disdainful at that time. War beasts always obey the orders of their masters, not to mention that there is a contract of sharing the same life.

"Alas... you just won't listen to advice?" The woman said meaningfully, "We have the same fate but different hearts. I'm just afraid that one day you will become its war beast, my dear young master~"
