Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 120 Big Snake
The sky was cloudless, and the wind was biting.

Chen Beiwu formed a hand seal with one hand, activated his magic power, and released a wind-resistant technique, forming a barely perceptible barrier of gentle breeze on his body, which diverted and neutralized the salty sea breeze that was coming his way.

In front of him, Senior Sister Wan'er raised her head, stretched out her arms, and let the wind pressure from thousands of feet in the sky blow her sleeves, making a rustling sound.

Upon seeing the flock of birds soaring in the distance, Li Wan'er's eyes lit up. She suddenly accelerated the flying boat, transforming into a streak of rainbow light that startled the dozens of eagles.

"Hehe, this is so much fun!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the senior sister suddenly reached out and grabbed a majestic eagle.

"Junior brother, can we bake this now?" She turned to look at Chen Beiwu.

Chen Beiwu: "The meat of this kind of iron eagle is rather tough and the taste is just average."

"Then forget it." Li Wan'er casually tossed it aside, and the Iron Eagle, which had narrowly escaped death, immediately flapped its wings and transformed into a sharp arrow, fleeing into the distance.

"Senior sister, how far are we from Daxing Island?" Chen Beiwu asked softly, his gaze subtly falling on the golden aura above the three-colored star toad's head.

"Crack."

The three-colored star toad, perched on Li Wan'er's shoulder, suddenly felt a chill, as if it were being watched by something, and subconsciously looked to its left and right.

Seeing this, Chen Beiwu quickly looked away.

"We've arrived. It's that island below."

The airship began to slow its descent, skimming over the shimmering sea, and came to rest on a beach teeming with sea crabs.

Chen Beiwu activated his divine sense to scan the island and discovered that the island had thin spiritual energy and a small area, making it difficult to nurture any rare and precious materials.

"Senior sister, where did you find the loach?" he asked curiously.

The loach that even the senior sister couldn't catch up with should be a second-realm minor demon, or in the Southern Wilderness terms, a Foundation Establishment demon beast.

Logically speaking, a demon beast of this strength would go to a large island with abundant spiritual energy to cultivate, rather than stay on a small island with a spiritual energy concentration of only level two.

Li Wan'er pointed to the shallow beach below: "That's where it emerged from."

After speaking, she took out a scale about the size of a copper coin from her storage ring and handed it to the three-colored star toad on her shoulder:
"The rest is up to you. If we can catch that big loach, we'll split it 40/40, and the remaining 20% ​​will be for our junior brother's cooking expenses. You're not allowed to have your eyes on it."

The three-colored star toad glanced at Li Wan'er speechlessly, then flicked its tongue and easily grabbed the scales.

The inferior bloodline of outside demonic beasts is nowhere near as fragrant as the high-grade elixirs within the sect.

If the other party hadn't insisted on helping it, Star Toad wouldn't have bothered coming to this desolate sea area to track down a mudfish of unknown cultivation level.

"Cuck!"

However, as soon as the scales entered its mouth, the three-colored star toad tasted a strange, fishy smell.

"How is it? Have you found it?" Li Wan'er asked hurriedly.

The three-colored star toad remained silent, simply moving towards the direction of the scales' aura.

Upon seeing this, Li Wan'er stopped asking questions and instead steered the flying boat into the seabed, accelerating rapidly.

……

Hundreds of feet below the sea.

Strange-looking fish swam past the sides of the airship, and occasionally one or two curious fish would try to rush into the airship.

"Clap!"

As the surface of the airship began to glow faintly, the fish instantly exploded, scattering into indistinct pieces of flesh and blood that were then devoured by the surrounding school of fish.

"Senior sister, are you sure it's a loach? Ordinary loaches can't swim to such deep waters." Chen Beiwu looked at his senior sister.

It's no exaggeration to say that the water pressure at the current depth of the flying boat is enough to instantly crush the physical body of a Qi Refining Level 9 cultivator.

Only Foundation Establishment cultivators, or fish that inhabit this environment year-round, can survive.

There's no reason why a loach that appears on a shallow beach would wander to such a deep place.

“That’s not an ordinary loach, it’s a really, really big loach.” After correcting her junior brother, Li Wan’er reminded him, “Junior brother, be careful, I’m going to speed up the process to go deeper.”

As the airship continued to descend, the surrounding corals were no longer flamboyantly bright, but rather a pitch-black obsidian color, which made the golden egg feel fearful.

"Gulu!"

Golden Egg nestled into Chen Beiwu's arms, its eyes cautiously scanning its surroundings.

'You are a water-type spirit beast, how can you be afraid of the sea!' He tapped the golden egg's head with his knuckles, and the glimpse of auspicious light he caught in the corner of his eye startled Chen Beiwu.

"Senior sister, wait!"

"What's wrong?" The senior sister asked, looking at her with a puzzled expression.

There's something nearby!

Hearing this, Li Wan'er's eyes lit up with joy. "Junior brother, you found the loach's trail. Where is it?"

"Quaa?"

The Three-Colored Star Toad also harbored doubts.

According to its senses, the loach that presented such a good opportunity should still be in the sea about ten miles away.

"I sense something watching us from the due south, but it might not be the loach you're looking for, Senior Sister," Chen Beiwu transmitted through his divine sense.

The aura of fortune he glimpsed was extraordinary, mixed with a large amount of scarlet ominous energy and black calamity energy, leaving only a trace of orange light, indicating that the other party's fortune was extremely bad, and they would perish if they were not careful.

Upon hearing this, Senior Sister Wan'er did not hesitate to activate her divine sense and probe the location Chen Beiwu had indicated.

"Come out here." She made a fist with her right hand and activated the Heaven and Earth Revolving Longevity Scripture.

boom!
The next instant, the coral reef to the due south burst open, the waves split open, revealing a huge black shadow about twenty feet long, whose specific features were indistinct.

With a thought, Chen Beiwu released his divine sense, trying to see where the other party came from.

"Roar!"

Just then, a deafening dragon roar resounded, unleashing a palpable, tangible pressure.

Under this terrifying pressure, Chen Beiwu's breath caught in his throat, his hands and feet went numb, and his internal magical power instantly stopped. He couldn't even move his fingers, and his whole body seemed to be frozen.

The turbulent, roaring waves around the airship came to a standstill at that moment, and the entire underwater world became quiet.

'Move!'

Faced with this terrifying force that could change the course of the sea, Chen Beiwu, even though he was conscious, was still unable to move.

The golden egg trembled and instantly hid behind Chen Beiwu.

"Wow, it's a big one!"

As soon as Senior Sister Wan'er finished speaking, an angry roar rang out from afar, and the oppressive aura that had intimidated Chen Beiwu dissipated.

"Huff, huff, huff." Chen Beiwu knelt on the boat deck, panting heavily, his eyes filled with shock.

He believed his combat strength was superior, far surpassing that of other Qi Refining cultivators of the same realm.

Even when facing a minor demon of the second realm, he could put up a fight and then leave safely with the help of the power of the Ten Directions Gate.

But when he truly faced the pressure of the second realm, he realized how ridiculous his previous thoughts had been.

Under such terrifying pressure, Qi Refining cultivators could not even circulate their magical power, let alone cast spells.

"Junior brother, are you alright?" Li Wan'er turned around, reached out her left hand, and helped Chen Beiwu up, her expression concerned.

"This beast is troublesome, Senior Sister, please be careful!" Chen Beiwu warned.

The senior sister smiled innocently and said confidently, "Don't worry, junior brother, it's just a giant snake that's close to transforming into a dragon."
