Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 336 Everything is Ready

Chen Beiwu glanced at the three-pointed double-edged sword in his hand, then shook his head slightly and let out a soft sigh.

"pity."

As soon as the two words were spoken, Chen Beiwu loosened his five fingers, and the three-pointed double-edged sword in his hand quickly disintegrated and separated, transforming into a huge golden egg.

At this moment, the golden egg had already reverted to its Three Realms Mystic Dragon form. Not only were its scales covered with fine cracks, but its energy was also extremely weak.

"Hey." (Why bother?)
Five Qi Vine glanced at the golden egg.

While the Creation Yuan Technique is indeed powerful, allowing the golden egg to unleash combat strength comparable to a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator and simultaneously stimulating the evolution of the bloodline within, it is not without its costs.

For example, right now, the three heads of the golden egg are drooping limply, and they have fallen into a deep sleep without even saying hello. It is obvious that their energy has been overdrawn and they are very tired. They need a period of rest.

"Woof?" (Did you win?)
Tie Dan raised his head and looked at the Fighting Demon Ape with its head split open.

"No, I lost." Chen Beiwu smiled calmly.

Sure enough, another unexpected event occurred the next second.

The Fighting Demon Ape's eyes lit up, and the flesh and blood that should have split in two and turned into ashes began to flow backward, gathering together and frantically reshaping.

In the blink of an eye, the Fighting Demon Ape's head was restored to its original state, as if it had not suffered any damage.

It then twisted its neck, making a cracking sound as its bones popped.

"That was a powerful strike!"

"This is what the Fighting Demon Ape said from the bottom of its heart."

Its choice was not wrong.

Only a prodigy like Chen Beiwu could make it feel the passion of battle.

Unfortunately, Chen Beiwu's energy wasn't sustained enough to keep it burning with passion.

"But it still can't hurt you."

Chen Beiwu frowned slightly, somewhat surprised, yet feeling it was also reasonable.

Fifth-tier Yuan Beasts are already powerful, and even Heavenly Gang Mystic Beasts with Heavenly Gang titles may not be able to get away with it.

Moreover, the Fighting Demon Ape is a terrifying existence ranked third on the Creation Beast Ranking.

If he could defeat it with a single strike, then the name "Fighting Demon Ape" would be undeserved.

After all, even someone as close as Master to the Void Refining Dao Venerable only had a contracted companion beast, the Azure Sea Dragon, ranked thirty-ninth on the Creation Beast Ranking.

The only thing that Chen Beiwu was curious about was how much of the Battle Demon Ape's strength it had used in this battle.

Is this truly the power that a demon general of the Three Realms can display?
"Hahaha, what a great 'can't be hurt' statement!"

The Fighting Demon Ape let out a deafening laugh, the first time Chen Beiwu had ever seen a demon ape laugh so loudly.

"I've seen too many so-called geniuses, but they're all too weak to interest me at all."

"Kid, keep up the spirit. I welcome your challenge anytime."

At this point, the Fighting Demon Ape paused slightly, then affirmed, "Among those of the same realm, there are very few cultivators who can withstand even one of my attacks, and you are the only one capable of severing my head!"

It is no exaggeration to say that among all the geniuses of the Southern Wilderness that the Fighting Demon Ape encountered, Chen Beiwu was the number one.

Unfortunately, even though it used the Demon-Binding Chains to suppress its own cultivation and physical body, the gap between a Nascent Soul True Monarch and a Golden Core True Person still existed and could not be avoided.

Otherwise, it might have been able to experience the taste of defeat for the first time!
It was precisely for this reason that, in the final moment of the battle, the Fighting Demon Ape deliberately severed the connection of energy between the Fighting Demon Body and the Fighting Demon Ape.

Otherwise, the moment its head shatters would be the moment Chen Beiwu dies.

Chen Beiwu was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "Even True Monarch Tianyan couldn't do that back then?"

"he?"

A memory flashed in the Fighting Demon Ape's eyes as it truthfully said, "If we were to fight against each other at the same level, you could take the life of True Monarch Tianyan with a single move."

"But if True Monarch Tianyan sets up the formation in advance, the outcome between you two should be 1 to 9, with True Monarch Tianyan at 1 and you at 9."

Hearing this, Chen Beiwu was quite surprised: "Then does this mean I passed the test?"

“Of course not.” The Fighting Demon Ape glanced at Chen Beiwu.

Tianyan Zhenjun never actually intended to leave behind a lineage of Daoist teachings for future generations to inherit.

The reason it left behind the inheritance stele and the Heavenly Treasure [Tianyan Star] after its death was simply to attract Foundation Establishment prodigies into the Tianyan True Realm, so that it could pass the time.

If it were to hand over the lineage of the Heavenly Evolution True Monarch now, what if Chen Beiwu ran away?
Who will keep it company and keep it entertained?

At the same time, through the conversation, Chen Beiwu also vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

The test left by True Lord Tianyan was too difficult; even he himself could not pass it. It did not seem like he was looking for a disciple to inherit the Dao lineage at all.

However, considering the strength of the Fighting Demon Ape, Chen Beiwu did not expose it directly, but continued to probe with words.

After all, a good opponent is hard to come by!

With the Fighting Demon Ape as a sparring partner, Golden Egg's combat experience and skills can be greatly improved.

"By the way, why didn't you use your Immortal Golden Body and go all out?" the Fighting Demon Ape asked, voicing his doubts.

During the battle, it could sense that Chen Beiwu's true qi in his dantian was inexhaustible, and it did not seem like he was exhausted at all.

Now that he's come to his senses, the Fighting Demon Ape is increasingly suspicious that Chen Beiwu didn't use his full strength against him.

"Senior misunderstands." Chen Beiwu shook his head slightly: "This junior is not hiding his abilities, but is simply unable to use the Immortal Golden Body for the time being."

Strangely enough, whether it's the Southern Wilderness or the Immortal Alliance, in theory, every Golden Core cultivator who successfully condenses their core and attains the status of a True Person can activate the power of their Dharma Body, but he is an exception.

Although Chen Beiwu can now vaguely sense the Co-existing Dharma Body within the Primordial Golden Core, he cannot summon it or unleash it. It is as if the Co-existing Dharma Body he, the Golden Egg, and the Five Qi Vine are nurturing together is still in the process of development and evolution, and has not yet completed its final transformation.

It is precisely because of this that even though Chen Beiwu successfully comprehended the "Tianyi Beiming Wanxiang Daolu", he did not intend to consume the Wanxiang Xuancao and forge the Yuanshi Dharma Image in advance at the peak of the Golden Core stage. Instead, he planned to take steady steps, condense the Yang Shen embryo, and naturally step into the Golden Core Perfection stage.

Upon hearing this, the Fighting Demon Ape gave Chen Beiwu a deep look and realized that the latter was indeed not lying.

"Interesting. It seems you're hiding quite a few secrets."

The Fighting Demon Ape smiled but didn't ask any further questions.

It doesn't care about so-called secrets, it only cares whether Chen Beiwu is strong enough and whether he can fight.

"By the way, senior, why don't you leave the Heavenly Evolution True Realm and seek out stronger opponents to spar with?"

After the battle, Chen Beiwu noticed that the Fighting Demon Ape was much friendlier and more talkative, no longer silent. He quickly seized the opportunity to ask the question that had been bothering him.

The Fighting Demon Ape fell silent.

After a long silence, it suddenly spoke: "It's not that I don't want to leave, but that I can't leave."

"Why?" Chen Beiwu's heart stirred slightly.

"Because I made a promise to True Monarch Tianyan." The Fighting Demon Ape looked up at the white clouds in the sky and murmured, "Unless I break through to the fifth-order Demon Venerable, I absolutely cannot leave the Tianyan True Realm!"

Hearing this, Chen Beiwu felt even more uneasy.

The fifth-order demon lord is a realm of demon race, and in terms of cultivation level, it is equivalent to the human race's Nascent Soul True Venerable.

Is the water in the Earthly Realm really that deep? Even the Fighting Demon Ape can only hide in the Heavenly Realm and dare not go out. He needs to advance to the Demon Venerable level before he can leave!

Furthermore, since True Monarch Tianyan was no match for the Fighting Demon Ape at the same realm, how did he gain the latter's recognition?
How did they manage to make the Fighting Demon Ape willingly confine itself to the Heavenly Evolution True Realm for over seven thousand years?
"Cultivate diligently. If you can defeat me, I can pass on the inheritance of True Monarch Tianyan to you, and I'll also tell you a secret."

Leaving behind a single sentence, the Fighting Demon Ape vanished without a trace.

Left with no other option, Chen Beiwu suppressed his doubts and left the Heavenly Evolution True Realm.

Yuankong County.

Pingchen Township Railway Station.

"That's enough, no need to see me off any further," Chen Beiwu said with a smile.

The top-ranked student on the Jade Void Ranking has considerable authority, but he can't be allowed to skip classes indefinitely. Today is the day Chen Beiwu returns to the Jade Purity Immortal Sect.

"alright."

Huang Xiaoling and Chen Dong exchanged a glance, then turned and left in tacit agreement.

The journey from Yuankong County to Yuqing City in Tianyuan Prefecture was long. Chen Beiwu boarded the train, found a seat, sat down, and closed his eyes to meditate on the "Tai Xuan Shou Yi" visualization method.

After obtaining the Heavenly Fortune Purple Dragon rank, Chen Beiwu vaguely touched the barrier of the Great Completion Realm of "Tai Xuan Shou Yi", but he could never get through it.

'Strange, is it a side effect of taking the Tai Xuan Reflecting Heart Lotus, making it harder for me to break through realms, or is my understanding of the Tai Xuan Guarding One technique not deep enough?'

Two days later, Chen Beiwu opened his eyes. The light of the Mirror of the Mind flickered, crushing away all distracting thoughts in his mind.

"Buzz!"

Just then, Chen Beiwu's phone vibrated, and a message popped up in the Wanbaohui group chat.

[Dan Chi: Urgently seeking a single spider lily, over ten thousand years old, price negotiable.]

Chen Beiwu was somewhat surprised to see this news.

It's not unusual for cultivators in the Wanbao Society to openly seek to purchase various fourth-tier mystic medicines. What surprised him was that he had never heard of the Other Shore Flower.

Fortunately, a fellow member of the group quickly replied, clearing up Chen Beiwu's doubts.

[Red Vine: The Red Spider Lily? Wasn't this miraculous medicinal herb already extinct?]

[White-haired Old Man: @Fellow Daoist Red Vine, you're exaggerating. Just because the Immortal Alliance doesn't have it doesn't mean other worlds don't. Have you been in seclusion recently?]

Chen Beiwu's pupils contracted slightly.

Other worlds?

Has the Immortal Alliance discovered a new world of cultivation?
[Red Vine: A new world? ??? Fellow Daoist Bai, please explain in detail, when did this happen?]

[Old Man with White Hair: It cannot be said. Those who know will know, and for those who do not, it is useless for me to speak.]

[Dan Chi: @Red Vine @White-haired Old Man, please stop spamming. I'm currently buying up Lycoris Radiata flowers. Fellow Daoists who are willing to sell can contact me privately. I'm willing to buy them at a high price!]

[Bai Xue: I also buy spider lilies, at a 10% premium over the price upstairs @Dan Chi.]

The group chat messages were scrolling by rapidly, and soon a group of cultivators appeared offering to buy the Other Shore Flower at a premium.

'To have disappeared from the Immortal Alliance and to be so fiercely contested by Nascent Soul True Monarchs, this Other Shore Flower must be extraordinary!'

Chen Beiwu pondered to himself and then sent a message to his senior sister to inquire.

Su Muyu: "Junior brother, please focus on your cultivation. The other day, Master hinted that we should be careful and not get involved in the development of the new world."

Upon seeing this news, Chen Beiwu became even more curious and tentatively asked Senior Sister Su if she knew about the effects of the Lycoris radiata flower.

"The other shore flower is not an ordinary elixir of creation. It greatly benefits cultivators in achieving the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top and the Five Qi Converging at the Origin. After consuming it, a Nascent Soul True Monarch can activate his Purple Mansion Nascent Soul and condense the 'True Self' Dao Seed ahead of time."

"But fortune and misfortune are intertwined. The other shore flower is fierce and unpredictable. If a Nascent Soul True Monarch consumes it and breaks through, it will inevitably trigger a tribulation of inner demons."

According to ancient records of the Immortal Alliance, most True Monarchs who consumed the Other Shore Flower suffered the dissipation of their Nascent Souls and the collapse of their Dao foundations, falling into demonic possession. Only about ten were fortunate enough to succeed and advance to the Divine Transformation True Venerable realm, but this drastically changed their personalities.

"Junior brother, your talent is unparalleled, and your path to enlightenment is clear. You must not let external things shake your resolve..."

After reading the series of messages sent by his senior sister, Chen Beiwu suddenly realized what was going on.

No wonder cultivators in the Wanbao Society are willing to pay high prices for the Other Shore Flower. It turns out that this is an extremely dangerous elixir of creation, and there will always be cultivators who are unwilling to take the risk and choose to sell it.

Unfortunately, all of Senior Sister Su's replies mentioned the other shore flower, without mentioning a word about the new world information he inquired about.

Hopefully, the new world discovered by the Immortal Alliance isn't the Southern Wilderness.

Chen Beiwu put down his phone and sighed inwardly.

He didn't care about the other shore flower, but he was afraid that if the Southern Wilderness was discovered by the Immortal Alliance, the Mirror Moon Sect would be in danger of being destroyed, and he would lose a place that could help him become a True Venerable, or even a Dao Venerable.

Soon, the train arrived at the station.

Chen Beiwu did not linger and went directly to the Yuqing Mountain Gate.

"Buzz!"

Unlike his first ascent, Chen Beiwu clearly noticed the unusual nature of the Immortal Sect's plaque this time.

Above the plaque of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect, extremely dense purple mist continuously rises, forming a vast and magnificent sea of ​​purple clouds.

The sea of ​​clouds was not still and unresponsive, but rather flowed slowly, with faint echoes of the Great Dao's teachings, and countless purple clouds falling to form a boundary, dividing heaven and earth.

Chen Beiwu's eyes narrowed, and he could vaguely see nine pillars of fortune intertwining, colliding and merging through the purple clouds.

Nine cycles of fortune unfold, and the dragon soars, bringing prosperity to the Dao.

The Three Elements return to their true nature, and the Dao extends from its origin.

Looking at the auspicious glow on the Yuqing plaque, Chen Beiwu couldn't help but be somewhat lost in thought.

Compared to the unfathomable and supreme fortune of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect, the Heavenly Fortune Purple Dragon he possessed was like an eel, utterly insignificant.

'Unfortunately, this fortune can only be observed; it cannot be altered in the slightest.'

Chen Beiwu withdrew his gaze, suppressed his greed, and stepped into the mountain gate.

The next instant, a streak of light descended from the sky and swiftly landed in front of Chen Beiwu.

As the lightning dissipated, a graceful woman in palace attire appeared, exuding elegance and poise, and gave a dignified bow.

"Greetings, Senior Brother Chen."

After performing the ceremony, she stood up and introduced herself: "Ying Yanyan, the seventh disciple under the sect leader, is here to await Senior Brother Chen by order of my master."

At this point, Ying Yanyan flipped her hand, revealing a storage ring in her palm, and offered it with both hands: "This is something promised by Master, please accept it, Senior Brother Chen."

"Thank you for your trouble, Junior Sister Ying." Chen Beiwu's heart stirred slightly, and he quickly reached out to take it.

If he wasn't mistaken, the storage ring should contain the evolutionary resources that the sect leader had promised.

"In that case, junior sister will not disturb senior brother's peace and quiet."

Ying Yanyan gave a graceful bow and then transformed into a bolt of lightning and departed.

Watching the figure come and go in a hurry, Chen Beiwu smiled and, urged by the golden egg, drove his escape light back to Shuiyan Residence on Qingming Peak.

"Purifying Blood, Three Lives Flaming Marrow, Submerged Sandalwood Heart, Transcending Karma Golden Sand, Great Sun Candle Guide, Illuminating Eyes, Pure Yang Fire Mirror, Transcending Blood Treasure Pill..."

Chen Beiwu carefully checked everything and found that the sect leader was truly generous, having prepared all the evolution resources for [Purifying Karma Burning Dragon] and [Candle Illuminating Radiance Lord] without missing a single one.

"Na!"

Wu Qi Teng swallowed hard and reached out his hand to indicate that he would help Tie Dan keep these fourth-tier mystic herbs and materials safe.

"Wang."

Tie Dan quickly got up and barked twice.

What are we storing?
Having successfully comprehended both evolutionary methods, it's time for it to advance to the third realm demon general and complete its bloodline transformation!
