Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 338 Attracting Attention
"Congratulations."

Yu Zhaohua offered her congratulations sincerely.

Chen Beiwu nodded, but his expression did not relax. Instead, he looked at Tie Dan with a serious gaze.

For Tie Dan, breaking through to the third realm of demon general is not difficult; the difficulty lies in how to complete the dual bloodline evolution.

For safety reasons, most cultivators in the Immortal Alliance will choose a stable evolutionary path, supplemented by corresponding cultivation resources and inherited techniques, to systematically cultivate the bloodline of the Fellow Beast.

In this way, as long as the beast has profound cultivation and a solid foundation, the probability of its bloodline successfully transforming and evolving is naturally extremely high.

However, while it is stable for the same beast to evolve step by step according to the evolutionary method, it will also miss out on the infinite possibilities hidden in its bloodline.

Therefore, the world is never short of beasts that dare to take risks and seize opportunities, and Tie Dan is one of them.

It is important to know that among the Five Elements, fire also has Yin and Yang aspects.

Purifying Fire Dragon: It wields the fire of karma, burns away sins and cleanses the prison. It can see through falsehoods and discern all things. It specializes in cause and effect and sins. It is a fourth-order mystical beast in the fire element that leans towards the extreme yin.

Zhuzhao Huangjun: It can manifest as golden flames and the great sun, and can destroy evil and reveal righteousness. It can restrain evil spirits, demons and corpses in the world. It is a fourth-order mystical beast with the fire attribute that leans towards the extreme yang.

To put it bluntly, one of these two evolution methods targets the sins of the netherworld, while the other targets evil spirits in the world. Although both are evolution paths for fire-attribute mystical beasts, the chosen paths of cultivation are fundamentally different, and the ultimate goals that bloodline evolution can achieve in the future are also very different.

In Jiang Chuan's eyes, Tie Dan's idea of ​​combining Yin and Yang to perfectly control the Pure Karma Burning Dragon and the Candle Illumination Emperor Evolution Method was simply a bit exaggerated.

The reason is simple: the risk of doing so is just too great!

First, the karmic fire of burning sins has the opposite properties to the golden flames of candlelight.

If the power of the two is out of balance and the iron egg fails to fuse perfectly, at best the meridians will be destroyed and the inner core shattered, at worst the person will perish on the spot.

Secondly, the essence of the evolution of the bloodline of the Tongcan Beast is actually to evolve towards a higher level, or rather, to evolve towards the ancestral bloodline hidden within the bloodline.

Even if Tie Dan can perfectly balance the Burning Sin Karmic Fire and the Candle Illuminating Golden Flame, the introduction of the Purifying Karmic Burning Dragon and the Candle Illuminating Radiant Lord evolutionary paths may still cause bloodline disorder or even bloodline mutation.

There are countless other problems like this!
Without practical experience, Chen Beiwu couldn't be sure how many problems Tie Dan's bloodline evolution would encounter.

Even after he understood the difficulty of Tie Dan's dual evolution, he had the thought of giving up.

Compared to the transformation brought about by bloodline evolution and the blessing of the three veins, Chen Beiwu was more concerned about Tie Dan's safety.

But Tie Dan's will was too firm, so firm that Chen Beiwu couldn't bear to reject him. Even now, he couldn't help but want to slap his own mouth.

It's all that damn mouth's fault. He suggested wanting everything, and ended up pushing Tiedan into a trap.

"Should we reconsider? We don't really need to take such a risk," Chen Beiwu said telepathically.

Although he had planned everything perfectly, he still wanted to persuade Tiedan to change his mind.

"Wang."

Tie Dan shook its head. It knew Chen Beiwu cared about it and didn't want to disobey its master's wishes.

This time, however, it wanted to be willful.

It had long since seen enough of those battles that it could neither intervene in nor meddle in.

The weak evolved form simply cannot keep up with its master's pace!
'I just can't do anything with you.'

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Beiwu gave up trying to persuade him further.

There is no such thing as a foolproof thing in this world.

While a step-by-step evolution is certainly safe, there are many examples of unexpected events during the evolutionary process that have led to the demise of the same beast.

With the blessing of the Nine Breaths Breathing Divine Power and the enlightenment of the Primordial Golden Elixir, the probability of Tie Dan's successful dual evolution is actually not low.

Even if Tie Dan's bloodline evolution ultimately fails, Chen Beiwu is confident he can save his life by relying on the profound power of the Primordial Golden Core to minimize the adverse effects of the failed bloodline evolution.

"Hey." (Don't worry, I'm here.)

Wu Qi Teng patted his chest, looking confident.

'Please don't die.'

Jin Dan glanced at Tie Dan, his tone seemingly indifferent and cold, yet concealing a hint of concern.

"Wang."

Tie Dan nodded, then his gaze shifted slightly as he looked at the whirlpool in the center of the Molten Core Lake.

"Boom!"

Perhaps it was Tie Dan's breakthrough that triggered the spiritual energy of the entire Molten Heart Lake, causing the eruption of the Pure Marrow Spirit Eye to occur a full day earlier.

A violent tremor came from beneath Chen Beiwu's feet, and a torrent of lava, whose brilliance defied description, suddenly erupted from the vortex.

Its radiance was so intense that even a Golden Core cultivator couldn't help but close their eyes.

At this moment, the fire-attribute spiritual energy within the entire Molten Core Lake surged to an incredible level, comparable to a fifth-tier spiritual vein.

"It's time to leave."

As soon as Yu Zhaohua finished speaking, his figure flashed, and he rushed into the mighty torrent of lava with the Flint Rock Dragon on his shoulder, attempting to be the first to penetrate into the Pure Marrow Spirit Eye and collect the gushing Pure Marrow Essence.

Yu Mingyun and the other two also activated their escape light without hesitation and rushed into the Molten Heart Lake.

"Woof!" (Let's begin!)
Tie Dan looked at Chen Beiwu.

"No need to rush. First, familiarize yourself with and master the magical power within your body." Chen Beiwu shook his head.

The Pure Essence Spirit Eye will erupt for forty-nine days, so it doesn't matter if the evolution is delayed by one or two days.

Upon hearing this, Tie Dan immediately closed his eyes and began to familiarize himself with the profound power within his body.

Time flies.

A day later, Tie Dan opened his eyes and looked at Chen Beiwu.

Without hesitation, Chen Beiwu formed a hand seal, and his primordial golden core trembled.

The boundless primordial true qi and divine consciousness condensed together to form the Three Treasures Jointly Engaging Seal, with a blood-red base.

'The Three Treasures converge, we participate together and help each other, a true union!'

Chen Beiwu pointed his finger forward and touched Tie Dan's forehead.

Sensing the familiar aura, Tie Dan did not resist at all, allowing the Three Treasures Co-examination Seal to fall into his own sea of ​​consciousness and establish the most intimate Co-examination Contract with Chen Beiwu.

"Buzz!"

The agreement has been reached, and we are on the same path.

Through the feedback from the Covenant, Chen Beiwu could clearly sense the changes in Tie Dan's cultivation level.

Through this almost blood-related connection, Tie Dan was also able to comprehend some of the true meaning of the Primordial Cave True Azure Flower Controlling Myriad Tribulations and Myriad Spirits Immortal Technique.

"Na?"

Five Qi Vine scratched the little flower on its head and looked at the golden egg.

It didn't understand why Chen Beiwu didn't form a co-existence agreement with Tie Dan from the very beginning.

With Chen Beiwu's help, the inner core that Tie Dan forged should be close to the grade of a first-grade golden core.

'Perhaps it's related to the Primordial Mystery.'

The three heads of the golden egg all looked at the iron egg.

"Na."

Five Qi Vine blinked, seemingly understanding but still somewhat confused. 'Go, I'll lend you a hand.'

Chen Beiwu rubbed Tie Dan's head, and a faint light flashed from the storage ring between his fingers, revealing one extremely precious fourth-tier resource after another floating in the air.

Tie Dan took a deep breath, activated his Fire Escape Technique, and rushed into the swirling pillar of lava fire in the center of the Molten Core Lake, disappearing from sight.

Chen Beiwu closed his eyes and regulated his breathing, quietly waiting for time to pass.

Soon, another day passed.

"All things return to one, blood is tempered and life is born!"

Sensing that the time had come, Chen Beiwu let out a low shout, formed a hand seal, and used the primordial true qi within his body to draw upon the surrounding suspended pure karma red blood and the Great Sun Candle.

In an instant, two streams of light, one red and one gold, disappeared into the pillar of lava fire.

The Pure Karma Red Blood is no ordinary substance; it is the marrow and blood of the Four Realms Demon King Pure Karma Burning Dragon, while the Great Sun Candle Guiding is the twin fangs of the Four Realms Demon King Candle Illumination Radiance Lord.

Chen Beiwu uses the Covenant of Mutual Assistance as the core, the essence of the Demon King as the furnace, and his own primordial true qi as fuel to refine blood with blood, allowing Tie Dan to inherit and obtain the bloodlines of the Pure Karma Burning Dragon Clan and the Candle Illuminating Radiance Lord Clan. This is the Heavenly Treasure Refining Method.

boom!
boom!
boom!
Stimulated by the Pure Karma Red Blood and the Great Sun Candle, the Iron Egg's bloodline essence was instantly activated, unleashing a powerful aura.

As a price, the conflict within Tie Dan's bloodline intensified, causing two streams of mysterious fire to erupt: one was the Burning Sin Karma Fire, and the other was the Illuminating Golden Flame.

The two flames, using the iron egg's body as their battlefield, began a fierce struggle, determined to suppress the other.

"Woo!"

In the blink of an eye, Tie Dan's throat went numb, and his inner core emitted intense heat, mercilessly burning his internal organs, making his body resemble a red-hot shrimp.

'What can a mere little flame do to me!'

Tie Dan frantically activated the Evolution Technique, trying to suppress the burning and tearing sensation coming from his physical body, and devoured the power of the Purifying Blood and the Great Sun Candle, but his mind was vaguely uneasy.

"Bearing the profound essence of Heaven, refining truth through scenery!"

At the critical moment, Chen Beiwu activated the Heavenly Gift Mid-Scene [Five Qi Riding Three Phases Ascending to the Mysterious Capital, the Great Primordial Beginning, Connecting Heaven, and the Three Realms Landscape].

He then flicked his fingertip, and the sandalwood heart suddenly ignited, transforming into a stream of blue energy.

The Pure Yang Fire Mirror shone brightly, like a great sun rising, disappearing into the pillar of lava fire, and embedding itself on the iron egg's forehead, forming a unique pattern.

The next second, the sun pattern on Tie Dan's forehead unfolded, like a vertical eye opening, and a stream of light burst forth to absorb the cyan energy and integrate it into his sea of ​​consciousness, stabilizing his divine sense and soul.

'Use marrow as the cauldron, eyes as the elixir, refine the heart and preserve the spirit!'

Chen Beiwu's eyes flashed like lightning. Combining the bloodline transformation steps of the two evolution methods, he clasped his hands together.

The Three Lives Flame Marrow and the Illusory Eyes, suspended in mid-air, rushed into the pillar of lava fire one after the other, disappearing into the vertical eye on the Iron Egg's forehead, helping to harmonize the raging karmic fire of burning sin and the golden flames of candlelight within his body.

At this moment, Tie Dan has both the stable bloodline of the Primordial Heavenly Realm landscape and the tempering of his body by numerous fourth-order mystical medicines and materials. The two mystical beast bloodlines that were originally competing with each other no longer repel each other, but instead merge with each other, beginning the most essential transformation.

'Great, it went even more smoothly than expected.'

Chen Beiwu breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not completely let his guard down.

Where is this?
In addition to merging the Pure Karma Burning Dragon and the Candle Illuminating Lord, he also plans to use the Golden Core Profound Power to activate the hidden power of the bloodline within Iron Egg's body.

"boom!"

Just then, Tie Dan's body stiffened, and the vertical eye on his forehead suddenly burst open, drawing out a few drops of blood. His previously stable qi plummeted wildly at this moment.

'not good! '

Chen Beiwu's expression changed slightly. With a flick of his sleeve, the Du Ye Golden Sand crashed down, transforming into countless rays of light that covered Tie Dan's entire body.

In an instant, he flashed and activated Cangming Stepping on the Void, rushing into the pillar of lava fire and stuffing the Blood-Saving Pill, the size of a dragon eye, into Tie Dan's mouth.

"Buzz!"

As the elixir dissolved, the vertical eye on Tie Dan's forehead closed tightly and stopped cracking, but it also showed no signs of recovery.

Upon seeing this, Chen Beiwu did not hesitate at all.

According to the Pure Karma Burning Dragon Evolution Method, once this situation occurs, it means that the probability of the same beast failing to evolve is as high as 90%, and the evolution must be abandoned immediately. Fortunately, he has a backup plan.

'The primordial mystery is all-pervading; all things return to their origin.'

A spark of inspiration, tracing back to the source!

Chen Beiwu pointed his fingers like a sword, and the primordial golden elixir in his dantian shone with unprecedented brilliance. He then pointed a finger at Tie Dan's forehead and vertical eye.

"boom!"

Chen Beiwu's mind went blank, and his face turned pale.

The enlightenment from the profound understanding was only a brief moment, but he felt as if a thousand years had passed, and even the original essence of the Primordial Golden Core had been directly consumed by two-thirds.

The reason is simple: the enlightenment of the Primordial Mysterious Path is not merely an increase in magical power or the awakening of spiritual intelligence, but a tracing and sublimation of the level of life and the source of bloodline, and can even rewrite bloodline.

Tie Dan did not disappoint Chen Beiwu. Although his appearance had not changed at all, his aura suddenly became ancient and profound.

It is no exaggeration to say that any Golden Core cultivator with keen senses would be able to clearly perceive the essence of Tie Dan's transformation here.

Soon, as time passed, Tie Dan's head was the first to change.

Its skull expanded slightly, becoming more angular, and its muzzle lengthened a little, revealing sharp white teeth wreathed in black and gold flames, adding a touch of domineering power.

Immediately, Tie Dan's body rapidly expanded, his shoulders reaching a height of ten feet, and his smooth muscle lines far surpassed those of an ordinary fourth-tier Xuanma.

Its dark obsidian fur resembled flowing black lava, with a shimmering sheen, as if it were wearing a suit of jet-black flame armor.

The claws hidden beneath the hair on the limbs and paws grew larger and thicker, with toes as robust as dragons. With each movement of the paws, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth would slightly distort, and a dark cloud of flame would automatically appear to support it, as if walking on fire.

Its thick, strong tail resembled a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, occasionally flashing out afterimages.

But more than these, what Chen Beiwu cared about most was the most mysterious and imposing vertical eye above Tie Dan's forehead.

Of course, although it is called a vertical eye, its shape is more like a purple aura pattern, not a flesh-and-blood eye, but it gave Chen Beiwu a dangerous spiritual sense that he could not look directly at.

You must know that Tie Dan is Chen Beiwu's fellow beast. If even he felt threatened by it, you can imagine the power of this vertical eye!

'Why isn't he awake yet!'

Chen Beiwu frowned slightly as he noticed that Tie Dan's ever-present Sky-Waving Cloak was slowly dissolving into the world.

……

Meanwhile, deep within the Yuqing Mountains.

Forbidden Peak.

An ancient being is slumbering, its body as large as a star, beyond description.

With each breath, this being can stir up the ebb and flow of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, causing the rules of heaven and earth to manifest.

Despite the pure and refined spiritual energy and Daoist charm of this place, it failed to attract any primordial beasts to inhabit it, and no living beings dared to linger within a radius of tens of thousands of miles.

Suddenly, this ancient being awoke. With a thought, it used its divine sense to pierce through endless space and layers of restrictions, and 'saw' the black dog in the Molten Heart Lake.

'interesting. '

'Using the power of the heavens as a guide, merging the extremes of yin and yang, one glimpses a trace of the true meaning of swallowing the sun, thus opening the eye of heaven.'

'He's a promising talent, qualified to inherit my mantle…'

As the thought subsided, the forbidden peak returned to its eternal silence.
