Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 31: Yin and Yang Reversal
Before the morning mist dissipated, Chen Beiwu picked up his homemade magic rat wolf hair brush, dipped it in the blood ink of the exotic beast, and hovered the tip of the brush three inches above the wolfskin talisman paper.

The detailed method of drawing the Giant Power Talisman emerged in his mind. The wolf-hair brush in his hand folded up and down like a dragon, drawing basic rune patterns on the talisman paper, drawing the surrounding spiritual energy into the paper, and hiding the magic in the talisman.

"call!"

When the last stroke of the rune was completed, the talisman on the table immediately burst out with a faint light, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Putting down the wolf-hair brush, Chen Beiwu picked up the slightly yellow giant power talisman and examined it carefully.

After confirming that there were no problems, he showed a hint of satisfaction in his eyes: "Since ancient times, talismans and arrays have been inseparable. A low-level talisman like the Giant Strength Talisman is indeed easy for me."

He picked up the wolf-hair brush and skillfully drew the Light Body Talisman and the Iron Body Talisman, two types of talismans that were not of the highest level.

Not long after, three talismans appeared neatly on the table.

It was just dawn when Mo Li pushed the door open and walked in, holding breakfast.

"I'm leaving." Chen Beiwu said goodbye.

Mo Li was slightly stunned and the breakfast in his hand fell to the ground.

Chen Beiwu walked out of the house and passed by Mo Li. "There are three talismans on the table. Take them to protect yourself. If you encounter bad guys, just tear them apart."

"Can you take me with you?" She suddenly grabbed Chen Beiwu's sleeve.

Chen Beiwu looked into her eyes and asked, "Can you bear to leave your father who has just recovered from a serious illness?"

Mo Li was silent.

She was reluctant to see the adults leave, but she couldn't let go of her father.

"Sir, can we meet again in the future?" Mo Li said with red eyes.

Chen Beiwu hesitated for a moment, took out the spirit-detecting talisman from his storage bag, and then activated his magic power.

The spirit-testing talisman is a first-grade, low-grade talisman with a single function, which is to roughly detect the purity of a person's spiritual roots.

The next second, the spirit-testing talisman spontaneously combusted without wind, turning into a wisp of green smoke that condensed into an illusory formation in mid-air.

The formation diagram uses the sky as Qian and the earth as Kun, and then uses the five elements to form the obscure and mysterious Bagua diagram.

"Reach out and hold down the formation diagram."

As soon as Chen Beiwu finished speaking, Mo Li stretched out his arm without hesitation.

The next second, the illusory Bagua diagram accelerated its rotation speed, and then collapsed with a loud bang, turning into a Fang Tian Huaji that alternately appeared real and virtual, emitting a strong aura of golden swords.

"Golden energy condenses into soldiers!" Chen Beiwu's pupils shrank.

My goodness, the herbalist girl he casually rescued in the mountains turned out to be an earth spirit root. It was incredible.

"What's wrong?" Mo Li asked timidly.

"That's a good thing." Chen Beiwu gave her a deep look. "Spiritual roots are divided into six levels: immortal, heavenly, earthly, true, mixed, and false. You have good aptitude, a top-grade gold-type earthly spiritual root."

"I have a method of cultivating immortality here, called "Alchemy Secrets". If you practice it with concentration, sooner or later you will be able to break through to the late stage of Qi training." Chen Beiwu handed over two jade slips.

The alchemy technique wasn't a technique from the Immortal Alliance, but rather a fragmented one he'd obtained from a robbery cultivator, a chance encounter to establish a good relationship. The other jade slip recorded the basic situation of the Southern Wilderness's immortal cultivation world.

Mo Li held the jade slip tightly and asked repeatedly, "Sir, will we have a chance to meet again in the future?"

"We will meet again if we are destined to." Chen Beiwu flew away without any reluctance, leaving Mo Li standing there alone, unwilling to leave for a long time.

...This morning we have a formation class.

The formation teacher's surname is Zhao. She is a female teacher who has just started working. She graduated from the Lotus Formation Sect among the 79 upper sects. She came to Shouhe No. 2 Middle School to teach in order to accumulate grassroots teaching experience. She will be transferred to Yunlong Mansion to teach next year.

Perhaps because of this, Teacher Zhao usually does not take the initiative to explain the questions in class. He sits on the podium and plays with his mobile phone, letting the students below read and study on their own.

According to her, the art of formation is different from refining medicine and weapons. It cannot be explained clearly just by talking, and requires understanding.

Students with insight can easily learn the basic formations and understand the profound principles of heaven corresponding to the formation concepts of the Immortal Alliance just by attending classes and reading books.

As for students who have no comprehension and cannot even understand the introductory book on the basic formations of the Immortal Alliance, Teacher Zhao believes that there is no need to waste their time and it would be better for them to spend their time on cultivation or other immortal cultivation skills.

Simply put, the art of formation is extremely profound. Those who know it don’t need to be taught, and those who don’t know it cannot be taught.

Teacher Zhao’s teaching philosophy has been complained by many students because it is too bad, but her teaching method has never changed.

Of course, if a student takes the initiative to ask Teacher Zhao questions about formations, she will patiently answer them.

As for whether the students understood or not, that was their business. She would not repeat the explanation again, so most of the students in the class disliked this cold-tempered formation teacher.

Chen Beiwu is the only exception in the class. He has a good relationship with Teacher Zhao and they can be considered as both teacher and friend.

Because Teacher Zhao really teaches something.

For example, when faced with his strange question, Teacher Zhao did not intend to be perfunctory, but thought about it seriously.

"Your idea is weird. Water is restrained by thunder. Why do you want to use a second-order water-attribute formation to fight against a second-level Cang Lei Tiger? What's the difference between that and using a short weapon to attack a long one?" Teacher Zhao frowned slightly.

"The art of formations is infinite, and the patterns and principles are connected. Why can't water-attributed formations kill thunder-attributed monsters?" Chen Beiwu asked in return.

"Of course you can, but it's a bit too much to limit the main formation cultivator's realm to the eighth level of Qi training." Teacher Zhao stretched out his white finger and poked Chen Beiwu's forehead, saying speechlessly.

"Teacher, you are a top student who graduated from the Lotus Formation Sect. Wouldn't it be easy for you to kill a second-level demon with the formation?" Chen Beiwu asked in surprise.

"You think too highly of me." Teacher Zhao shook his head, his tone helpless: "I'm not as powerful as you think. Do you think a second-level demon is weak?"

Chen Beiwu probed, "If we set up the formation in advance, wouldn't it be possible to catch the turtle in the jar?"

"Yes, but the person who sets up the formation needs to study the relationship between the Yin and Yang Qi and the formation field clearly, use the Yin and Yang Reversal Formation as the formation core to reverse the situation, and reverse the Jinghai Nine Bends Formation into the Xuanyin Jinghai Formation that restrains thunder." Teacher Zhao smiled.

Chen Beiwu frowned: "Teacher, do you mean it's impossible?"

"That's right. Qi training cultivators can use the finished array plate to set up the Tranquil Sea Nine Bends Array."

Teacher Zhao explained, "But the Yin-Yang Reversal Formation is different. It requires the one who sets it to possess a second-order spiritual consciousness or higher. A Qi cultivator who forcibly sets it will only die from spiritual consciousness exhaustion."

"A second-level formation master who can set up the Yin-Yang Reversal Formation must be at least a Foundation Establishment cultivator."

"I understand. Thank you for your guidance, teacher." Chen Beiwu returned to his seat and sat down.

"It's really not that easy to kill that Cang Leihu in a short time!" Chen Beiwu sighed in his heart.

To put it bluntly, all his current troubles stem from his lack of strength!

"Maybe I should apply to the school for self-study." Chen Beiwu thought to himself.

He had already completed high school courses on his own, so his grades were fully guaranteed.

For him now, the most important thing is to seize the resources for cultivating immortals in the Southern Wilderness to improve his Qi training and build his foundation as soon as possible!
