Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 315 Great Luo Heaven

Chen Beiwu's expression shifted slightly as his gaze swept over [Xuan'ao Huodou] and [Tunyue Xuanlong].

These two evolution methods have immense potential, both targeting Heavenly Mystic Beasts with Heavenly Gang titles and overwhelming combat power.

However, he did not make a decision directly. Instead, he looked down at Tie Dan and asked him with his divine sense.

Tie Dan stood up, cautiously took two steps forward, letting the two streams of light surround him, and carefully sensed the aura contained in the evolution method.

After a long while, Tie Dan shook his head.

These two evolution methods are indeed very powerful, and can even be said to be the ultimate evolution goal that countless canine beasts in the Immortal Alliance dream of, but it did not even have the slightest bloodline tremor.

"No problem, there are more than two evolution methods here. We can find them slowly; there's plenty of time."

Chen Beiwu stood up, his gaze sweeping over the streaks of light that flashed by, and continued to silently recite keywords in his mind to select a suitable evolution method.

Iron Egg charged ahead, grabbing a streak of blazing white light, its nose twitching slightly before releasing its front paw and letting it go. Then it grabbed another streak of light as it fell and carefully sensed it.

The golden dragon's head tilted slightly, its three pairs of dragon eyes moving back and forth, deliberately ignoring some powerful streams of light.

The sycophant was already deeply favored by the emperor.

If Tie Dan were to evolve into a Xuan Beast with a Heavenly Gang title and its strength were to increase dramatically, wouldn't its current status be shaken?

As for those slightly dimmer orbs of light, the golden egg glanced at them, revealing undisguised disdain.

Choosing a poor evolutionary method won't work either!

Although Tie Dan often competes with him for favor, he will eventually become his master's companion beast.

If the evolution method it chooses is too weak, wouldn't it make it seem like it has no vision, and it could easily drag Chen Beiwu down?

After careful consideration, the golden egg's eyes brightened slightly, and it chose an evolution method that was neither good nor bad, inferior to its Three-Phase Mystic Dragon form.

'This little guy!' Chen Beiwu raised an eyebrow.

He found the most interesting thing about the golden egg to be that it never hid its bad intentions, but openly pondered them in its heart, allowing the co-existing contract to sense them.

Moreover, Jin Dan remained the same in front of Tie Dan, not hiding his emotions.

It's just that Tie Dan has a steady personality and treats Jin Dan like an immature child, which is why they play the game of sycophants vying for favor together.

"Bring it over and let me take a look."

As soon as Chen Beiwu finished speaking, the golden egg immediately presented the evolution method.

【The Purifying Demon, born with karmic fire, possesses the power to burn away sins and purify the prison. It can also penetrate illusion, discern all things, and listen to the thoughts and sins of all beings. Although it is not among the Heavenly Stars, it still receives the Heavenly Star title 'Great Vow and Brightness'】

"Hmm, this one seems pretty good." Chen Beiwu's eyes lit up slightly.

Unlike the Xuan'ao Huodou and the Tunyue Xuanlong, this evolution method felt more calm and restrained to him, as if it could cleanse all distracting thoughts.

"Wang."

Tie Dan also showed a reaction for the first time, his eyes revealing an eager look.

"So, is this evolution method tentatively set?" Chen Beiwu asked Tie Dan for his opinion.

"Woof." Tie Dan nodded without hesitation.

"Na."

Five Qi Vine furtively glanced around, and seeing that no one was paying attention to it, it cautiously walked up to a rare fire-attribute spirit plant and reached out its little hand to touch it.

"Buzz!"

As soon as their hands touched, the spiritual plant instantly transformed into a cultivation technique, startling the Five Qi Vine.

"Na."

After glancing at the name of the cultivation technique, Five Qi Vine lost interest and casually tossed it aside, continuing to sneak around aimlessly.

It prefers precious medicines and potent elixirs, rather than incomprehensible cultivation technique evolution diagrams.

Upon seeing this, Chen Beiwu shook his head and stepped forward to pick up the martial arts manual.

【The Candlelight King is a manifestation of the Great Japanese Origin. He is as tall and imposing as a mountain, with the brilliant Yang fire as his skin, and he wields the Candlelight Golden Flame.】

This fire is extremely yang and powerful, making it the absolute nemesis of all darkness, evil spirits, demonic energy, and cold poison. Although it is not among the Heavenly Generals, it can still contend with fifth-tier evil spirits.

Seeing this, Chen Beiwu was somewhat tempted.

Not being included in the ranks of the Heavenly Stars, nor receiving a title from them, does not mean that Zhuzhao Huangjun, who can contend with fifth-order evil spirits, is not strong.

On the contrary, this only shows that the number of Zhuzhao Huangjun is extremely small, and it is not the iconic mythical beast of the Thirteen Immortal Sects and the Five Great Grotto Heavens.

What moved Chen Beiwu the most was that Zhuzhao Huangjun was transformed from the Great Japanese Origin, and his Primordial Profound Power could be put to its fullest use.

What do you think of this?

Chen Beiwu handed the evolution method to Tie Dan.

"Wang."

Tie Dan's eyes showed a conflicted expression.

Happiness came too suddenly; it hadn't taken a liking to any of the previous evolution methods.

Now, to make matters worse, two evolutionary methods have come along that make its very bloodline tremble.

"Only children make choices. If you're having a hard time deciding, you can choose to have it all," Chen Beiwu mentally reminded him.

The Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Evolution Method is not fixed, especially since he possesses the profound enlightenment nurtured by the Primordial Golden Core.

Since the Immortal Alliance predecessors were able to research the evolution methods of the Pure Karma Burning Dragon and the Candle Illuminating Radiance Monarch, he could also use the power of enlightenment to stand on the shoulders of his predecessors and go a step further.

If it's truly impossible, Chen Beiwu doesn't need to stubbornly persist; he can choose one of the two options and select the evolution path that best suits Tie Dan.

"Wang!"

Tie Dan suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with surprise.

If it could, it would want both paths and want to take both!
"Then I'll take them all," Chen Beiwu thought to himself.

Tie Dan nodded and carefully put away the two evolution techniques.

"Isn't this too exaggerated? No, it's too dangerous!" Golden Egg blinked its dragon eyes, feeling that it had overplayed its hand and created a formidable enemy.

"Hey." (It wouldn't hurt to give it a try.)
Wu Qi Teng lay listlessly on Chen Beiwu's shoulder, speaking in a casual tone.

As long as Tie Dan has a breath left, it can use the Five Elements Treasure Light to heal any injuries the former suffered during its evolution.

This means that the probability of Tie Dan failing to use the evolution method is almost zero.

As for how strong or weak Iron Egg's bloodline will become after its evolution, that's beyond its control.

It's just a Five Qi Vine; it can only keep you alive, not control the strength of your bloodline.

Thinking of this, the Five Qi Vine yawned and glanced speechlessly at the spiritual plant in front of it.

What a piece of trash that Guicang Tower is! It doesn't even have a single precious medicinal herb; it's full of obscure and difficult-to-understand cultivation manuals. Just looking at it makes me want to fall asleep.

Ignoring the petty thoughts of his darlings, Chen Beiwu straightened his robes, faced the open space, and respectfully bowed.

"Disciple Chen Beiwu has a request. Please, senior guardian, show yourself."

As soon as Chen Beiwu finished speaking, the figure of an old man dressed in a simple Taoist robe appeared in front of him.

"What is it?" he asked calmly.

Chen Beiwu replied humbly, "Reporting to Senior, when I was selecting an evolution method for my fellow beast, I discovered that the [Purifying Karma Burning Dragon] and [Candle Illuminating the Radiant Lord] evolution methods are very compatible and have the potential to be merged into one. Senior, could you please make an exception and allow me to take both evolution methods at the same time?"

The Guardian True Venerable gave Chen Beiwu a deep look, his tone leaving no room for doubt: "The Sect Leader's decree only permits you to enter, select, consult, and take away one evolution method." Upon hearing this, Chen Beiwu remained expressionless, quietly watching him.

After a brief silence, the True Venerable of the Nascent Soul stage suddenly changed the subject: "Your request is against the rules, but matters have varying degrees of importance. Beyond the law, there are also considerations of human feelings and merit."

"That's all, it won't happen again."

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure of the Guardian True Venerable vanished into the void.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior."

Chen Beiwu bowed slightly and left Guicang Tower with his pets.

Do you think he can succeed?

On the top floor of Guicang, amidst the rising steam of tea, the Guardian True Venerable and the Jade Purity Sect Leader sat facing each other.

"Whether it succeeds or not, what does it matter? It's just two evolution methods anyway." The Jade Purity Sect Leader picked up his teacup and took a sip: "Let it be."

"You're quite magnanimous." The Guardian True Venerable chuckled, then inquired about the important matter: "What's the assessment of that Foundation Establishment and Core Formation technique?"

His ambition was to refine the void, and he had long since stopped caring about worldly affairs, but he was still somewhat interested in the unprecedented method of nascent elixir.

"Not long ago... a decree was issued from the Great Luo Heaven."

As soon as Master Yuqing finished speaking, True Venerable Guicang's pupils contracted slightly, and his right hand, which was holding a teacup, suddenly froze.

Great Luo Heaven?
That is the true foundation of the Upper Three Immortals Sect, and also the place where the Refining Void Dao Venerable of the Upper Three Immortals Sect cultivates in seclusion!
Sensing the emotional fluctuations of Guicang Zhenzun, the Yuqing Sect Leader nodded slightly, his tone filled with reverence: "This method... has already caught the eye of Guangcheng Daozun."

'To think that he has alarmed that person!' Guicang Zhenzun was even more surprised, and the teacup in his hand silently turned into dust.

How strange and bizarre.

A cultivation technique for Foundation Establishment and Core Formation can actually reach the ears of the heavens!
"The decree states that this method reveals its true essence in the smallest details, establishing the foundation of primordial chaos during foundation building, opening up a new path, and subtly aligning with the wonders of the Primordial Taiyi, thus possessing considerable value for deduction."

At this point, the Jade Purity Sect Leader smiled and said, "I imagine that soon, the Gui Cang Tower will have another supreme immortal technique and several wonderful methods for forming the Golden Core."

After a long silence, Guicang Zhenzun finally understood why the sect leader had made an exception for Chen Beiwu and even regarded him as a successor.

He exhaled a breath of stale air and slowly said, "This boy is extraordinary!"

You shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket, but a prodigy like Chen Beiwu is enough to attract the full investment of some True Venerable Clan members in the Immortal Alliance.

He was all alone, otherwise he could have used this information to his advantage and profit from it.

Upon hearing this sentiment, True Venerable Zixiao smiled, his gaze becoming profound.

As the head of the Jade Purity Sect, he knew a lot of information and understood that not only Guangcheng Daozun, but even Yuanshi Daozun had begun to notice Chen Beiwu's existence.

Jade is not cut, not a device.

If it weren't for the fear that forcing growth would hinder development, and the desire of the Primordial Daoist Venerable to temper the temperament of this young prodigy, he would probably have already issued a decree summoning Chen Beiwu to the Great Luo Heaven for personal instruction.

'That old fellow Changqing is quite fortunate; he's taken on a good disciple.'

Zixiao Zhenzun sighed inwardly and took another sip of hot tea.

……

Qingming Peak, Shuiyan Residence.

With a thought, Chen Beiwu "saw" a group of young prodigies standing by the waterfall in front of the cave, about nineteen people in total.

These young prodigies possessed inner brilliance and extraordinary bearing. Some stood with their hands behind their backs on the bluestone by the river, while others gathered in twos and threes to chat, their eyes occasionally glancing towards the cave.

A very small number of young prodigies had their aura flowing around them, mingling with the water vapor from the waterfall and the spiritual energy permeating the mountains, clearly indicating that they were meditating and cultivating.

These cultivators are all prodigies who have ranked in the top ten of the rising star list.

Chen Beiwu instantly recognized the identities of the Foundation Establishment prodigies.

The creation of the Primordial Golden Elixir and the commencement of his teachings quickly made him a highly sought-after figure in the Jade Purity Immortal Sect.

Even without thinking, Chen Beiwu could understand that the purpose of this group of young prodigies was nothing more than two things:
One reason is for the profound method of laying the foundation for Taiyi.

Foundation Establishment prodigies want to use the method to advance to the Nascent Soul stage and forge a first-grade Golden Core, while Golden Core prodigies hope to use the method to make up for their flawed Golden Cores.

Secondly, it was to show goodwill.

No cultivation faction can avoid the emergence of its own factions and cliques.

The Azure Cloud Immortal Sect is a typical example.

For the sake of factional interests, the reforms implemented by the Bixiao Immortal Sect's leadership have been largely ineffective, even failing to consider the sect's overall interests.

In terms of atmosphere, the Jade Purity Immortal Sect is clearly far superior to the Azure Sky Immortal Sect; at least there won't be a situation where the sect's geniuses can't rise to prominence.

However, the various Dao Venerable Immortal Clans will also take this opportunity to win over and befriend potential prodigies, establish connections, and enhance their influence and voice within the Jade Purity Immortal Sect.

Thinking of this, Chen Beiwu remained calm and composed.

Human relationships and the pursuit of profit and avoidance of harm are common human instincts, and even the Jade Purity Immortal Sect is not exempt from them.

But how to deal with it next—whether to feign compliance, to refuse outright, or to choose the virtuous to befriend—is entirely up to Chen Beiwu. This was something he had decided on before he even began teaching.

As the light descended, Chen Beiwu was about to exchange a few pleasantries when a young man in a blue robe rushed out from the crowd.

"Pfft!"

With a muffled thud, the boy knelt down without hesitation, slamming heavily onto the ground.

"Your student, Chi Quan, humbly begs Master Chen to accept me as his disciple and impart to me the Great Dao of Core Formation. Your disciple is willing to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao, to serve you faithfully for the rest of my life, even unto death!"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere outside the cave fell into a deathly silence, with only the sound of the rushing waterfall still ringing out.

Every young prodigy present froze instantly, their composed smiles vanishing.

Dude, is it worth it?
A man's knees hold a sacred stone.

Such recklessness and disregard for dignity, completely abandoning all pride, and kneeling before a senior in public is not a simple act of goodwill, but a gamble with everything one has. How is this any different from being a madman?
Ignoring the surprise of those around him, Chi Quan stared directly at Chen Beiwu, his eyes filled with composure.

Is it shameful?
It is naturally a disgrace. Which of the geniuses who can enter the Jade Purity Immortal Sect does not have pride in their hearts!
But before a first-grade Golden Elixir, everything else is meaningless.

Chi Quan was nurtured by his family from a young age. Even though he was not a direct descendant or core member, he still managed to achieve the Foundation Establishment beyond the limit and was admitted to the Jade Purity Immortal Sect.

However, given that his talent and abilities were inferior to his elder brother's, the family support he could receive was extremely limited.

That little bit of support was nothing compared to his dream of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, let alone forging a top-grade Golden Core.

As for becoming a disciple of a True Lord of the Immortal Sect, a direct disciple of a Nascent Soul cultivator, or even a disciple of a True Venerable?
Haha, Chi Quan has tried it before too.

However, the Nascent Soul True Monarch of the Immortal Sect aspires to become a Deity, and his daily teachings are only to fulfill the mission of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect. How could he possibly waste time taking on disciples?

Only when encountering an exceptional genius with outstanding talent, comprehension, fellow beasts, and background can one possibly be moved.

To put it bluntly, the Jade Purity Immortal Sect is not lacking in geniuses, but only an unparalleled genius like Master Chen can be valued.

Chi Quan could foresee that if no changes were made, a student from an ordinary family with mediocre talent like himself would most likely follow in the footsteps of many of his seniors and stop at the middle third-grade Golden Core stage. This was the cruelty of the Immortal Alliance's cultivation system.

Chi Quan was unwilling to accept this, so he figured out Master Chen's purpose in opening the hall to teach the Dharma and chose to gamble everything.

Success makes you a dragon, failure makes you a laughing stock!
Whether he can seize this opportunity to change his destiny depends entirely on Master Chen's response.

'interesting. '

Chen Beiwu remained expressionless as he quietly watched Chi Quan kneeling on the ground, a crimson dragon of good fortune moving around his body.

Without a doubt, this is a ruthless person whose potential has yet to be fully realized, and who is expected to become a Nascent Soul True Monarch, but he dislikes this kind of personality.
