Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 233 Inheritance Stele
Who is this person?

To be able to make Zhou Yuan wary with his mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation is something even Han Shengwu, the second true disciple of the Mirror Moon Sect, couldn't do!

Zhao Qingluo's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her mind racing with thoughts.

Although the Green Wood Sect and the Mirror Moon Sect have always been on good terms, they also secretly compete with each other, not wanting the latter to produce too many outstanding talents.

"I just happened to see my junior brother's escape light descend." Gu Yunsi smiled.

The battle between the Green Wood Sect and the Heavy Metal Sect was far too intense.

If it weren't for Senior Brother Han's appearance, he would still be obediently buried in the ground, using the Qingxi Flower to conceal his aura, lest he be discovered by cultivators from other sects.

'Something's wrong.'

Upon hearing this answer, Chen Beiwu instinctively became wary of Gu Yunsi.

With his current level of spiritual power, he can easily see through the illusions of Foundation Establishment cultivators and conceal himself.

Although Gu Yunsi was a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator, it was still difficult for her to see through his traces without him noticing.

This person must have a secret.

Han Shengwu nodded to Chen Beiwu in acknowledgment.

"Let's call a ceasefire." Zhou Yuan took a deep breath.

As the situation develops, if the fighting continues like this, more and more cultivators from the five major sects will gather here. It would be better to stop while we're ahead and share the inheritance stele.

If the worst-case scenario occurs and the True Monarch's inheritance is obtained by cultivators from another sect, it won't be too late for him to seize it then.

"boom!"

Just then, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, revealing three giant shadows.

One of them was a lion beast that was over three zhang tall and covered with light purple scales.

The lion-like beast had its vertical pupils closed, and its appearance was somewhat similar to the Thunderous Hou that Chen Beiwu had seen before entering the Heavenly Evolution True Realm.

However, compared to that imposing third-realm demon general, the Thunder Hou in front of us is obviously much thinner in bloodline and can't be considered a fourth-order Xuan Beast at all. It can only be called a Purple Kui Hou, but its bloodline is still among the best of the third-order treasure beasts.

In particular, its cultivation level is as high as 499 years, and its strength is comparable to that of a human pseudo-core cultivator. Even if Chen Beiwu were to take action, it would be difficult to kill it.

At the other end was a bone-winged demonic bird with a wingspan of three zhang (approximately 10 meters). Its feathers were grayish-purple, and it had three spiral bone horns on its head, each tip of which was sealed with the remnant soul of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

This beast is the Three Yin Soul-Eating Dove, the most skilled of the third-tier superior treasure beasts, adept at devouring the yin souls of cultivators and feeding on resentment.

The last one is a giant turtle with a dragon's head shaped like a small mountain.

It has six pairs of claws on its abdomen, making it move relatively slowly. Its carapace on its back contains mysterious star patterns, providing amazing defense and allowing it to ignore the full-force attack of a magic weapon used by a cultivator of the same realm.

This beast is none other than the Tier 3 superior-grade treasure beast, the Claw Dragon Turtle.

The Thunder Hou is primarily responsible for speed and killing, the Three Yin Soul-Eating Dove is primarily responsible for soul and consciousness attacks, and the Clawed Dragon Turtle is primarily responsible for defense.

These three extraordinary demonic beasts, working together, could escape unscathed even if they encountered a Golden Core cultivator.

“If I am not mistaken, you should be Zi Kui Hou, one of the offspring of Zhen Tian Lei Hou.” Zhou Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

The Heavenly Evolution True Realm was left behind by a Nascent Soul True Monarch of the human race, and the legacy he left behind is a secret manual of array formations that is difficult for the demon race to comprehend and cultivate.

Even if all the human cultivators within the secret realm perished, it would be highly unlikely that the demon race of the Dragon's Gate Mountains would obtain the True Monarch's inheritance.

"There's a saying among humans that goes, 'Treasures belong to those with virtue.'" Zi Kui Hou smiled contemptuously. "If you all want to comprehend the Inheritance Stele, it's simple: first, get past us."

Zhou Yuan's lips twitched slightly.

It's obvious that these demons entered the secret realm not to compete for the inheritance, but to disrupt the battle and prevent the cultivators of the five major sects from obtaining the True Monarch's inheritance.

"The three of you, please hold your hands." Zhao Qingluo said with a light laugh, "In addition to the True Monarch's inheritance, this secret realm also contains precious and profound medicines that are enough to transform and elevate the bloodline of a third-tier demon race."

At this point, Zhao Qingluo looked at the inheritance stone tablet: "Why don't the three of you work with us to decipher the inheritance stone tablet, and then share the spoils together?" Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuan and Han Shengwu both frowned slightly.

So what if we take action?

Even a three-headed, peak Foundation Establishment stage demon beast couldn't stop the combined forces of the Heavy Gold Sect, Mirror Moon Sect, and Green Wood Sect, so why should they share the secret realm's mystical medicine with the demon race?

Chen Beiwu, on the other hand, scrutinized Zi Kui Hou with barely perceptible eyes.

If a third-tier superior-grade Purple Kui Hou could be captured and sold to the Immortal Alliance, it could fetch an unimaginably high price, enough to exchange for a dozen or so priceless third-tier superior-grade treasure pills, or even Nascent Soul Mystic Medicine.

Unfortunately, he had no reasonable way to explain the origin of the Purple Kui Hou.

Zi Kui Hou's eyes flickered slightly, and a thought crossed his mind.

Preventing cultivators from the five major sects from obtaining the True Monarch's inheritance is for the benefit of the demon race of the Ten Thousand Mountains.

However, by working together with human cultivators to break the stone tablet formation, it could gain the opportunity for a bloodline transformation.

Between the two, even a fool would know which to choose.

"If we join forces, how should we divide the precious and mysterious herbs in the medicinal field?" it probed.

"Naturally, it should be split 70/30."

Chen Beiwu, Zhao Qingluo, and the others exchanged glances and spoke in unison.

"I'll take seven while you take three?" Zi Kui Hou's eyes lit up.

“How could that be?” Zhou Yuan replied without hesitation, “There are more of us, so naturally there are seven of us and three of you.”

"Okay, but I want the Purple Thunder Bamboo."

Zi Kui Hou looked at the black giant monument that was as tall as itself, and above the monument, a spatial rift was constantly twisting and writhing.

Through the spatial rift, one can vaguely see countless rare treasures of varying sizes floating in the pitch-black space.

These treasures include the Purple Thunder Bamboo that the Purple Kui Hou desired, as well as the fourth-tier Xuanbao [Heavenly Evolution Star Chart] that the cultivators of the five major sects coveted.

Following the gaze of the Purple Kui Hou, Chen Beiwu also saw in the endless darkness a magnificent array plate, about a foot in diameter, neither round nor square.

It is adorned with countless self-moving, dazzling points of light, as if simulating the evolution and flow of the stars in the heavens, radiating an invisible aura that makes Foundation Establishment cultivators shudder.

'Why isn't there a Nascent Soul Pill?' Chen Beiwu's gaze darted around quickly.

Unlike Chen Beiwu's reaction, the cultivators from the five major sects present all had burning eyes and slightly heavier breathing the moment they saw the Heavenly Evolution Star Chart.

The Heavenly Evolution Star Chart is a top-grade Xuan Treasure that even Nascent Soul True Monarchs may not be able to possess.

Even among the five major sects, such a treasure would be one of the most prized possessions, and only the sect's patriarch could use it.

Moreover, the Heavenly Evolution Star Chart also contains the legacy of the Heavenly Evolution True Lord.

It is no exaggeration to say that whoever obtains it will become a Golden Core cultivator and the next sect leader!
"Yes, but no matter how good the treasure is, it still needs to be able to be opened."

At this point, Zhao Qingluo activated her magic and touched the black giant monument.

"Buzz!"

The giant stele emitted a soft hum, and countless flickering stardust particles gathered together to form two lines of obscure ancient seal script imbued with the Daoist essence of the True Lord.

These two lines of ancient seal script were not the Southern Wilderness language commonly used in the Earthly Realm, and Chen Beiwu and the others did not recognize them, but they could understand their meaning through that Daoist charm.

"The mind is like a monkey, difficult to tame; the Great Way is as deep as an abyss; the stars are ever-changing, only the mind can discern them."

"Only those who subdue the restless mind can inherit my mantle and control the celestial constellations."

"Otherwise, die!"
