Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 182 The Twelve Fiend Arrows
"Roar!"

As the lightning exploded, a spirit beast, two zhang long, with a deep purple carapace, resembling both a tortoise and a crocodile, and with four webbed claws on its belly, suddenly appeared, exuding an incomparably violent aura.

[Species]: Purple Thunder Turtle (commonly known as Thunder Crocodile)
[Attribute]: Thunder

[Bloodline]: Second-class superior
[Cultivation Level]: Forty-nine years
[Talent]: Thunder Swamp Domain (consumes energy from the thunder sac within the body to turn the earth into an electrified swamp), Thunderous Recoil (absorbs lightning falling from the sky and enters a state of heightened excitement, increasing all abilities by 30% to 50%).
Upon recognizing the spirit beast, Chen Beiwu's eyes lit up with understanding.

He guessed correctly. The young cultivator in front of him, wielding a heavy hammer and with a purple thunder turtle waiting in front of him, was none other than Li Yuanba, a Golden Core cultivator from the Fallen Dragon Palace.

Thinking of this, Chen Beiwu dared not be careless. He held his breath, and a second-tier high-grade spiritual weapon, the Twelve Yuan Chen Fiend Bow, appeared in his hand, ready to go all out.

After all, he was facing a projection of a future genius who would achieve the Golden Core stage and make a name for himself in the Fallen Dragon Palace.

'Ugly Ox - Mountain Collapse!'

Chen Beiwu's eyes narrowed, and the liquid mana in his dantian instantly gathered in his palm as he slowly drew back the bowstring of the evil bow.

"Buzz!"

As the magical power flowed, a tall and mighty ox phantom suddenly appeared behind Chen Beiwu, radiating an invisible sense of oppression, as if Mount Tai were pressing down on him.

As the second move of the Twelve Earthly Branches Rotating Evil Arrow True Technique, the longer the Ox's Mountain Collapse is charged, the greater the power of the arrow, which can unleash a strike with up to ten times the power.

Sensing the threat, Li Yuanba's projection took a step, and his figure transformed into lightning above Chen Beiwu's head.

The heavy hammer in his hand was crackling with electricity. He raised it high and brought it down with unstoppable force, producing a thunderous roar.

At the same time, its companion beast, the Purple Thunder Turtle, stomped its four legs on the ground and charged behind Chen Beiwu with a speed far exceeding that of its master, attempting to form a pincer attack with Li Yuanba from above and below.

As the giant hammer tore through the air and approached in an instant, Chen Beiwu's movements remained unchanged, and the momentum of the Mountain-Shattering Arrow continued to build up.

Because he is not fighting alone at this moment.

"Roar!"

The golden egg exuded the might of a dragon, as if a golden dragon were soaring into the sky, its head meeting the giant hammer, and its tail whipping towards the Purple Thunder Turtle.

"Bang! Bang!"

As the two sounds of metal clashing against stone rang out one after another, Li Yuanba's arms shattered, he spat out blood, his giant hammer fell from his hands, and he retreated even faster, turning into specks of light and dissipating.

The Purple Thunder Turtle fared even worse.

Even though it instinctively retreated to avoid the oncoming attack and was not hit head-on by the golden fish tail, the pure magic power contained in the golden egg's tail still blasted through its carapace from a distance, crushing it into a pile of minced meat.

'? ? ? '

Chen Beiwu put down the savage bow, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He seems to have overestimated his opponent's strength.

He didn't even need to lift a finger; the golden egg could easily crush the young golden core cultivator and his fellow beast with a single blow.

More precisely, the gap between the two sides was like an insurmountable barrier.

Even a projection of a Golden Core cultivator in his youth is no different from an ant in front of the Golden Egg, and cannot cause any trouble at all.

"Gulu?"

The golden egg was also somewhat unexpected.

Seeing Chen Beiwu's alarmed appearance, it thought that the two projections could unleash strength comparable to Foundation Establishment with their Qi Refining cultivation.

Unexpectedly, it was just like a piece of paper; it was easily crushed with a light press.

"Buzz!"

The instant the golden egg annihilated the cultivator's illusory figure, all the thirteen Immortal Sect cultivators in charge of the examination stirred their divine senses and "looked" at Chen Beiwu.

"To be able to defeat an enemy in a second, this exotic golden scale is truly extraordinary," Pei Heng praised.

It is quite rare in the Immortal Alliance for a pet to be stronger than its master.

Chen Beiwu's ability to cultivate his Tongcan Beast to this level in just over three years is enough to call him a beast-taming prodigy. A burly man with muscles filling out his robes calmly said, "Is this considered extraordinary? It's normal for a second-stage cultivator to have such a result when fighting a Qi Refining cultivator beyond their level."

"Indeed, if this golden scale can successfully transform into a dragon, it might become a high-grade third-tier treasure beast," the Golden Core cultivator in blue robes chuckled.

Zhao Wuchen glanced at Ai Jing but said nothing.

Most of the Golden Core cultivators in the Dongxuan Immortal Sect are skilled at discerning mysteries and deducing destiny.

Therefore, every year during the Immortal Alliance College Entrance Examination, if a True Person of the Dongxuan Immortal Sect takes a liking to a cultivation genius, True Persons of other Immortal Sects will also try to extend an olive branch, mainly based on trust.

The true masters of the Three Immortal Sects, however, have always maintained their unique style, never participating in the competition unless a truly remarkable genius appears who moves them.

At this moment, Ai Jing deliberately pointed out the drawbacks of the contracted golden scales. Could it be that he, like him, was also eyeing Chen Beiwu's aptitude?
……

The realm of fierce competition.

[Challenger]: Chen Beiwu

[Cultivation Level]: Qi Refining Beyond Limit
[Opponent in the Contender Realm]: Pei Qingying, a candidate from the Immortal Alliance at level 24122 (at the Qi Refining Transcendence Realm).
As the inscription on the jade tablet faded, a chilling sense of impending death arose behind Chen Beiwu.

He caught his breath and subconsciously activated his Soaring Waves Stepping on the Void, moving a hundred feet in one step.

boom!
As the strong winds rose, a huge crater was blasted out of the spot where Chen Beiwu had been standing.

'What a treacherous fellow!'

Chen Beiwu's pupils contracted slightly, and his spiritual sense surged out like a tide, instantly capturing the incongruity in the void to his right.

'Golden Egg, don't attack first, protect me.'

With that thought, Chen Beiwu drew back the bowstring of the evil bow, aimed the arrow at the sky, and suddenly a phantom image of a rabbit appeared behind him.

True friends are hard to find, and true rivals are even rarer!
While the golden egg could easily crush the phantom of the prodigy in the second level, it would also deprive him of the opportunity to hone his combat skills.

Finally, I've encountered a cunning old fox who's also skilled in illusions... wait, no!

It's rare to encounter a genius cultivator with a similarly steady personality. He can use him as a sparring partner to unleash his own combat potential.

Thinking of this, Chen Beiwu poured his magic power into the bow, drew his arm and pulled it open. Immediately, nine white and blue water arrows were generated from the bow and spread out in a fan shape.

'Rabbit in the Year of the Rabbit - Connecting Stars!'

In the blink of an eye, nine arrows were fired in succession.

The water arrows, linked together, shot into the sky in the shape of the Big Dipper before falling back down.

Like moonlight scattering across the earth, silently drawing out shadows hidden in the void.

"boom!"

The man was nine feet tall, with shoulders as broad as a tripod, and stood like an iron tower. Two purplish-brown scars ran across his face, making him look exceptionally fierce.

With a slight flick of his wrist, he slashed an exaggeratedly shaped tiger-shaped saber upwards, intercepting all nine incredibly fast-moving rabbit arrows, and then suddenly threw the saber out.

"Roar!"

As the tiger's roar exploded, Chen Beiwu's body stiffened slightly.

The tiger-shaped sword suddenly transformed into a second-tier high-grade spirit beast called the "Splitter Tiger," which was two zhang long, nearly as tall as a person, and had golden fur all over its body, and quickly pounced in front of him.

In a daze, Chen Beiwu seemed to see himself being torn in two by the Rift Tiger.

Chen Beiwu, however, showed no fear, ignoring the Rift Tiger right in front of him. His right hand moved like a blur as he drew the bowstring, unleashing a dense barrage of water arrows.

'Dragon of the Dragon - Clouds and Rain!'

Arrows fall as the wind rises, clouds gather as rain falls.

Energizing the Dragon Arrow, Chen Beiwu transformed into the Rain-Bringing Dragon King and vanished into the torrential rain.
