Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 109 First Strong, Then Strong
"Is there a problem?" the steward of Xuanji Hall asked with a smile.

"May I ask, which alchemy master produced this pill?" Chen Beiwu asked curiously.

"Yun Wan, the Deputy Head of the Alchemy Hall."

At this point, the deacon of the Xuanji Hall paused slightly: "The pills refined by Fairy Yunwan all carry a trace of medicinal essence, and their medicinal power is extraordinary, making them extremely sought after within the sect."

“If Junior Brother Chen didn’t have the identity jade slip of the candidate sequence, I would have had a hard time freeing up this Dragon Blood Pill in the storeroom.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Beiwu slightly cupped his hands in thanks.

The steward also smiled, exchanged a few pleasantries with Chen Beiwu, and then found an excuse to exchange communication talismans.

'Great, another positive connection has been formed today!'

Watching Chen Ziang's figure disappear, Zhao Heng carefully put away the communication talisman.

The Mirror Moon Sect is a sect that values ​​human relationships.

If Chen Zi'ang weren't the fourth disciple of Master Zhu, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths to take out the pills refined by Fairy Yun Wan from the storeroom to curry favor.

Thinking of this, Zhao Heng glanced at the dozens of communication talismans in his storage bag and felt a sense of security rise in his heart.

Cats have cat lanes, rats have rat lanes.

Within a sect, neutrality sometimes means hostility.

If a Foundation Establishment cultivator with limited potential wants to live a peaceful life, he must figure out the ways of the world, know which people he can fool, and which cultivators he cannot offend.

Following the sect's rules and regulations while using sect resources to curry favor—this two-birds-with-one-stone approach had long been second nature to Zhao Heng.

……

A secluded dwelling by the water and moon.

Chen Beiwu took out the jade slip containing the Tai Xu Guan Xing Jue (太虚观星诀) technique and used his divine sense to read it.

After an incense stick had burned, Chen Beiwu sighed and put away the jade slip containing the cultivation technique.

One should not practice the secret techniques of divine sense too much, otherwise it will cause mental disorder in the cultivator.

Although the Tai Xu Guan Xing Jue (太虚观星诀) has a good intention, it is still far inferior to the Tai Xuan Shou Yi Meditation Method of the Immortal Alliance.

His use of this method to study the secret techniques of divine sense in the Southern Wilderness is not bad, but there is absolutely no need to change his cultivation.

After all, this is an incomplete Foundation Establishment Divine Sense Secret Technique, which can only be cultivated up to the tenth level of Qi Refining at most, and the Foundation Establishment chapter is almost entirely missing.

"Gulu!"

Just then, the golden egg opened its mouth and spat out a blank jade slip.

"Have you mastered the basics of 'Mirror Flower, Water Moon'?" Chen Beiwu looked down at it.

"Gulu."

The golden egg shook its head, and tiny water mirrors emanated from its scales.

As time passed, these water mirrors gradually merged together, coalescing into a giant, flawless white water mirror in front of it.

Seeing this, Chen Beiwu formed a hand seal, and a water arrow the size of a pebble immediately shot towards the water mirror.

Just as the water arrow was about to hit the water mirror, a thin layer of mist appeared on the surface of the mirror, and the water arrow suddenly changed direction, striking the ground and creating a crater the size of a fist.

"Not bad, you've actually mastered the transfer of the 'Mirror Flower, Water Moon' technique. It seems that the jade slip containing the cultivation method wasn't a waste of time." Chen Beiwu gave the golden egg a thumbs up.

"Gulu."

The golden egg blew out some bubbles.

Without needing three cultivation technique jade slips, just one more would be enough for it to fully master the basics of "Mirror Flower Water Moon".

"No rush. The jade slip for the 'Mirror Flower, Water Moon' technique is rare and requires careful planning." Chen Beiwu scratched Jin Dan's chin and then asked about the technique he had previously purchased.

"Gulu."

The golden egg's scales flashed with a faint light, and it instantly appeared behind Chen Beiwu.

"The release speed of Scale Blade Release is still a bit slow."

Without turning his head, Chen Beiwu, as if he had eyes in the back of the head, easily caught the golden egg with his palm. "Gurgle."

Seeing that Chen Beiwu was not satisfied, the golden egg opened its mouth, spat out a stream of water, and its figure disappeared instantly.

Looking at the small pool of water that suddenly appeared in the depression in the cave floor, Chen Beiwu stretched out his right hand and gently tapped it with his knuckles.

"You idiot, this is the only place with water in the entire cave. Hiding here is practically an admission of guilt."

As soon as he thought of it, the golden egg immediately lost its invisibility and shook its fins in dissatisfaction.

"I've finished looking at the Hidden Water Flow, now all that's left is the Water-Dividing Thorn." Chen Beiwu smiled.

"Gulu."

Golden Egg's cheeks puffed out slightly, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth began to surge around him. His internal magic power poured out, transforming into a fist-sized droplet of water that appeared in front of his mouth.

"This is a cultivation cave. Be careful to control the power of the Water-Splitting Spikes," Chen Beiwu thought to himself.

Upon hearing this, the golden egg's neck muscles suddenly contracted, withdrawing most of its magical power. The water droplet quickly shrank to the size of a pigeon egg and then began to take shape.

The water droplets in front of its mouth first spread out from both ends, and then began to contract in the middle.

A willow-leaf-shaped water-splitting blade, completely transparent like glass and containing rapidly vibrating water flow inside, immediately appeared, emitting a sharp buzzing sound.

Golden Egg looked at Iron Egg.

"Iron Egg won't work, just aim at me and fire." Chen Beiwu's expression changed slightly.

With Jin Dan's current level of skill, even a weakened version of his Water Splitting Spikes could severely injure Tie Dan.

"Pfft—Pfft!"

The first half of the sound was the sharp screech of the water-splitting dagger cutting through the air, while the second half was the muffled thud of it hitting the protective barrier of the tide-generating silk armor.

"That's really impressive." Chen Beiwu began to applaud.

Now, the Golden Egg can master spells in a short time simply by absorbing spell jade slips through the Sea Spirit Technique.

This means he can save a lot of time and focus more on his own cultivation.

Of course, to prevent Jin Dan from learning the wrong techniques, he still needs to observe Jin Dan's spellcasting process from time to time and give specific suggestions on how to improve it.

"Gurgle." The golden egg confidently raised its head, its eyes no longer showing the same idiotic look as before.

Chen Beiwu took out a jade bottle from his storage bag, opened the stopper, and a trace of dragon aura immediately filled the cave.

Sensing the terrifying aura, the golden egg shuddered, fear showing in its eyes.

"What's there to be afraid of? This is just a pill." Chen Beiwu pointed the bottle at the golden egg.

The latter's eyes lit up, and with a flick of its tail fin, it instantly rushed into Chen Beiwu's arms.

Seeing the drool at the corner of Jin Dan's mouth, Chen Beiwu laughed and said, "Don't worry, this pill is yours."

"Gurgle." The golden egg opened its mouth.

'You can't handle the effects of the medicine right now.'

Chen Beiwu shook his head, put away the jade bottle, and set a small goal for the golden egg: 'Only after you have cultivated your Dao for forty-nine years will you be able to consume this Flood Dragon Blood Pill.'

Chen Beiwu is now confident that he can surpass the limits of Qi cultivation, but he is not entirely confident that he will have no time to cultivate Qi.

It should be noted that every year, Tianyuan Star produces many young cultivators, but only a handful of cultivation geniuses are remembered by the Immortal Alliance, especially those peerless prodigies who have no time to cultivate Qi.

Such prodigies can not only be directly admitted by the Five Great Grotto Heavens, but their names can also be recorded in the history of the Immortal Alliance and spread throughout the Five Paths and Sixty-Three Provinces.

It is no exaggeration to say that the rise of a Qi Refining prodigy can even elevate their hometown from a county to a prefecture.

This shows how difficult it is to have no time to practice Qi cultivation.

Unsure how to avoid having time to practice Qi cultivation, Chen Beiwu planned to gather intelligence and devise a plan simultaneously.

After his trip to the Xuanji Hall, he came up with a simple solution: first strengthen the foundation to drive the subsequent strengthening, and use the foundation building stage to achieve the Qi Refining stage.
