Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 117 Mountain Palm Technique
One of these two paths is to join the army, and the other is to go on a blind date.

The former seems simple, but it requires cultivators to risk their lives to explore and develop the wilderness.

It should be noted that although the Immortal Alliance now rules Tianyuan Star and has set up the Nine Heavens Star Battle Realm Immortal Array that covers the entire planet, there are still demons lingering in the deep caves of the Earth Abyss, attempting to recreate the glory of the ancient demon race.

It is no exaggeration to say that every year, a large number of cultivators from the Immortal Alliance perish in the bloody battlefield against the three great demon kingdoms of the Earth Abyss.

As a result, some lower-level cultivators in the Immortal Alliance would rather work to earn spiritual energy or take out cultivation loans to go to jail than voluntarily join the army.

Only a few Qi Refining cultivators with strong will and a willingness to fight were willing to enter the meat grinder-like battlefield, but unfortunately, few of them were able to successfully emerge.

Over time, fewer and fewer cultivators from the Immortal Alliance voluntarily joined the army.

Only some extremely poor families would send their offspring to join the pioneering army in exchange for the high stipend of 100 spirit coins per month, in order to obtain cultivation resources.

This may also be a drawback of the Immortal Alliance's long-standing peace.

Nowadays, many high school students with poor grades choose to get married and have children to avoid military service.

'Blind date!'

Hearing this, Xu Lingling became interested and quickened her pace to step forward.

She usually travels by flying shuttle, a magical artifact, and has never encountered a blind date.

Seeing this, Chen Beiwu had no choice but to follow.

"Huh? That works too!"

Xu Lingling paused, her gaze fixed on the sign held by a beautiful female cultivator, a look of shock on her face.

Chen Beiwu followed her gaze and a look of realization dawned on his eyes.

[Seeking a husband/stay-at-home dad]

I am a local from Yuankong County, a senior high school student, an only child, with a cultivation level of Qi Refining Level 6. My parents are business people and my family is well-off.

The requirements are that the man is unmarried and childless, stays at home, is suitable for a stable life, has a metal spiritual root, can cooperate with the applicant in cultivating dual cultivation techniques, and has a cultivation level of at least Qi Refining Level 6.

The required dowry is 1,000 spirit coins or a second-tier water-type spirit beast.

Dowry: A silk quilt.

After looking at the blind date list, Chen Beiwu said softly, "That's not surprising."

"Isn't it strange? It's one thing to demand that the man be a full-time househusband, but to also ask for a dowry of 1,000 spirit coins is like asking the man to spend money to sell himself and then voluntarily become a vessel for her to be drained of her essence!" Xu Lingling asked in confusion.

"Blind dates are a matter of mutual consent."

Chen Beiwu explained, "She didn't hide her conditions but stated them directly, which is already higher than many female cultivators who go on blind dates. Her only flaw is that she can't see herself clearly and her requirements are too high, to the point that many cultivators find hard to understand."

At this point, Chen Beiwu paused slightly: "However, since she dares to set such conditions, she either has a unique way of thinking, or a unique physique that can help the man cultivate, or she is deliberately causing trouble and doesn't want to go on a blind date."

"I see." Xu Lingling nodded thoughtfully, then looked at another pretty female cultivator surrounded by a group of boys.

The blind date list in her hand contained completely different information.

[Female seeking marriage]

I am currently at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and I have served in the military. I am now looking for a husband.

No bride price needed! We can even give you the exotic beast Thunder Sable, the magical weapon Martial Ring, and ten Pure Water Pills as a gift!

The requirements for the man are: junior high school education, under 18 years old, a local resident of Yuankong County, sincere, and willing to marry into the family.

"Why are this girl's standards so low? Is it because she wants to date a younger man?" Xu Lingling blinked, somewhat puzzled.

"No, this female cultivator is unusual; there are many hidden traps in her blind date conditions," Chen Beiwu chuckled.

Xu Lingling turned around, tilted her head, and asked in confusion, "Where is the pit?"

"Are you aware of the Immortal Alliance's mandatory military service system based on middle school entrance exams?" Chen Beiwu reminded him.

Xu Lingling was slightly taken aback, then realized, "But didn't this girl already serve in the military?"

"Just because she served in the military doesn't mean her family members don't need to serve. Take a closer look at her requirements."

The requirements for the man include a junior high school education, indicating that the prospective partner is a monk; he must be under eighteen years old and have not served in the military. Finally, the man who is genuinely kind and willing to marry into the family must be selected and given a rigorous examination.

“Once a cultivator marries into another family, they become part of the same family. According to the laws of the Immortal Alliance, a cultivator who has never served in the military can take the place of an injured family member to perform military service.”

"This girl isn't so much looking for a husband as she's looking for a substitute for her family members in the military," Chen Beiwu explained.

There's no such thing as a free lunch when spirit stones just fall from the sky.

These days, female cultivators who are willing to give away exotic beasts, magical treasures, and elixirs are mostly scammers; only inexperienced Qi Refining cultivators would fall for their tricks.

"I see."

Xu Lingling murmured and leaned close to Chen Beiwu's ear, probing in a voice only the two of them could hear: "If there really were a female cultivator willing to offer her spirit beast, magic weapon, and elixir, would you be willing to marry into her family?"

Chen Beiwu took a step back and said calmly, "If I have no one to rely on, I will be my own. It is not the way of a man to marry into another family."

Xu Lingling pursed her lips and remained silent.

"Let's go, there's nothing to see here," Chen Beiwu urged.

After seeing Xu Lingling off, Chen Beiwu returned to his home cultivation room, opened the Immortal Alliance website, placed a bulk order for the resources needed for cultivation with Golden Eggs and Iron Eggs, and activated the Ten Directions Gate to teleport to the Southern Wilderness for cultivation.

……

Cultivation knows no time; several months have passed in the blink of an eye.

"Gulu?"

Golden Egg awoke from its sleep, its eyes glazed over as it looked at the increasingly thick fog around it.

The next instant, darkness suddenly fell over the top of the golden egg, as if some enormous creature was watching it.

"Gulu."

It swallowed hard, looked up, and saw a jade dragon tearing the sky apart with its claws deep in the churning clouds, revealing a crimson-gold vertical pupil that held up a thousand miles of mountains and rivers.

"Gulu!"

The golden egg was startled and quickly swung its fins to run away.

No matter how fast it ran, it could never escape the watchful eye of the dragon shadow behind it!

"Roar!"

With a deafening dragon roar, the golden egg froze and collapsed to the ground.

Fortunately, the fog dissipated the next second, and it saw Chen Beiwu's figure.

"Gulu!"

Golden Egg opened its eyes wide and suddenly rushed into Chen Beiwu's arms.

"It's just an illusion, don't be afraid." Chen Beiwu rubbed Jin Dan's head.

After this period of training, he successfully mastered the Illusionary Mist Blasphemy Technique, and could release a mist that could confuse the six senses at any time.

Because of its strong physical defense, the golden egg was fortunate enough to become his first target for testing spiritual arts.

As a result, Chen Beiwu discovered that the golden egg had extremely low resistance to illusions.

If he hadn't been reminded through the Co-existing Contract, Golden Egg wouldn't have even noticed the activation of Illusionary Mist.

"Wang!"

Seeing Jin Dan's cowardly appearance, Tie Dan couldn't help but laugh.

Golden Egg pouted, poked its head out, and sprayed a water arrow towards Iron Egg.

"Don't do anything reckless." Chen Beiwu took a step forward and activated the Soaring Waves Stepping Void.

With the sound of sudden rain, Chen Beiwu instantly teleported in front of Tie Dan and casually destroyed the golden egg water arrow.

At the same time, a communication talisman suddenly appeared outside the cave, attracting Chen Beiwu's attention.
