Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 5 Young Ambition
Returning to the familiar training room, Chen Beiwu immediately sat cross-legged to refine the vast spiritual power in his body.

More than half an hour passed while I sat there.

"Not bad, your cultivation has improved a bit!"

Chen Beiwu opened his eyes, looking a little lethargic, but his aura was noticeably stronger than before.

To activate the Nine Breaths Chaos, he does not need to provide all his mana. He only needs to use a trace of mana as a switch to activate it. However, Chen Beiwu will empty his own mana every time just to take advantage of the Nine Breaths Chaos.

The spiritual power bestowed by the Nine Breaths of Chaos is of extremely high quality, and its absorption efficiency is dozens of times higher than that of low-grade spirit stones. If he can use it once a day, Chen Beiwu is confident that he can directly reach the foundation-building stage this year.

Unfortunately, this kind of attempt to fleece the precious treasure does not succeed every time. Chen Beiwu has only succeeded five times in total.

But these five baptisms alone made the magic power flowing in his body as endless as a rushing river, and the concentration and purity of his magic power far exceeded that of cultivators at the same level.

Chen Beiwu stood up with satisfaction and pushed open the door of the training room. What caught his eye was Tiedan with a tea tray on his head and a teacup on the tray.

That’s right, Tiedan can clean the house and wash the toilet, but he can’t make tea. It seems that his mother has gone home.

Chen Beiwu picked up the teacup and found that the tea was still warm.

"Did you keep it warm on purpose?" Chen Beiwu asked softly.

Tiedan nodded.

Its cultivation was shallow, and it was unable to draw upon the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth to spit out fireballs to kill the enemy, but it was still easy for it to mobilize the spiritual energy to keep the tea tray warm.

"The tea is cold, so be it. Don't do this again next time. It might burn your brain." Chen Beiwu touched Tiedan's burning head. "You're already stupid, but you can't be any more stupid."

Tiedan nodded naively and followed his master downstairs.

"Why are you so late today? You haven't even eaten..."

Hearing the footsteps, Huang Xiaoling turned his head while muttering, and his words suddenly stopped.

"Have you broken through the seventh level of Qi training?" she asked hurriedly.

Although he failed in his attempt to establish his foundation in his early years and suffered hidden injuries, Huang Xiaoling's vision is not low.

She knew that the hair of cultivators who had opened their ancestral orifice and entered the seventh level of Qi training would often become thick, black, and shiny, giving people a sense of elegance and agility. This was also a hallmark of cultivators in the late stage of Qi training.

"It's just the seventh level of Qi training. Do you even need to ask? That's not easy for me." Chen Beiwu said proudly.

If he doesn't show off his breakthrough to his family, then his breakthrough would have been in vain!

"Okay, okay." Huang Xiaoling turned and went into the kitchen, and directly cut four ounces of fat and lean spiritual beast bacon, "Add a dish tonight, let's celebrate together."

"Dad, are you working overtime tonight?" Chen Beiwu asked.

"Yes, he has been very busy with the project recently and often works overtime at night." After my mother finished speaking, a fragrance began to come from the kitchen.

After a while, the dish was served on the table. A plate of crystal clear bacon exuded an enticing aroma.

Tiedan couldn't take his eyes off her. His mouth kept drooling, and his crystal clear saliva spread up and down, almost dripping onto the ground.

Smelling the fragrance, Chen Beiwu also swallowed his saliva.

Meat is common these days. The meat of spiritual beasts that can be served on the table to nourish the body and strengthen the body, and can be exchanged for spirit stones at critical moments, is rare. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a delicacy.

In recent years, the Immortal Alliance's standards for slaughtering monsters have become increasingly strict. Even farmed exotic beasts need to be slaughtered by certified butchers according to procedures to ensure that the processing and sales of the exotic beast meat are legal, not to mention the higher standards required for spiritual beasts.

There is a saying among the people of Yuankong County: "A thousand pieces of spiritual stones are as brilliant as a spiritual beast."

Although this statement is exaggerated, the price of spiritual beast meat is at least ten times higher than that of exotic beast meat for the same pound of meat. Some special spiritual beast meat is even priceless, and only Jindan Zhenren are qualified to enjoy it.

The large piece of spiritual beast bacon hanging in Chen Beiwu's house was older than him and not a special species, but it was still hard currency that could be exchanged for low-grade spiritual stones. "Eat more."

Huang Xiaoling smiled and put the meat from the plate into Chen Beiwu's bowl.

One piece, two pieces, three pieces...

After a while, a small mountain appeared in Chen Beiwu's bowl.

He glanced at the almost empty plate of bacon on the table and quickly moved his bowl and chopsticks away.

"Mom, you should eat more too. I can do it myself."

If he continued feeding it like this, he estimated that he could finish all the spirit beast meat by himself.

"You also know that this spiritual deer meat is very nutritious. I can only eat one or two pieces at most. My body can't handle more." Huang Xiaoling smiled.

She knew that when cultivators cultivated Qi, part of the Qi came from their own bodies, and part came from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth absorbed through daily practice.

The amount of spiritual deer meat cut this time was not much, which was just enough for the cultivator at the seventh level of Qi training to nourish his body through food supplements, and to prevent his son from becoming physically deficient due to practicing too fast. Otherwise, she would not be willing to use the spiritual deer meat that she had treasured for many years.

"It's delicious. Mom, your cooking skills have improved recently."

Not long after Chen Beiwu swallowed the meat of the spirit beast, a warm and powerful spiritual power quickly penetrated into every part of his body, nourishing his internal organs like spring rain, and even his body became a lot lighter.

"No wonder spirit beast meat has always been so in short supply. The spiritual energy contained in this piece of meat is as good as Qingshui Pills, and its nourishing effect is even stronger." Chen Beiwu's face lit up, and he silently felt the changes in his body.

"By the way, will you still be broadcasting live tonight?" Huang Xiaoling suddenly asked.

"No live broadcast tonight, take a few days off."

"Or you can stop live streaming in the future. Cultivation is more important." She said bluntly.

It’s different in the past.

My child has excellent talent and can break through the seventh level of Qi training at the age of sixteen.

If he could continue to maintain this speed of cultivation, it would be almost certain that he would pass the college entrance examination and enter the Seventy-Nine Upper Sect. He might even have a chance to enter the Thirteen Immortal Sect that countless cultivators dreamed of.

It's a pity that she may not be able to see such a scene.

"I only livestream three times a week. It won't interfere with my cultivation." Chen Beiwu looked at his mother. "You promised me before that you wouldn't interfere with my livestreaming."

Huang Xiaoling's eyes darkened slightly: "Well, it's up to you."

Seeing the one-meter-long saliva at the corner of Tiedan's mouth, she picked up a piece of spirit beast meat and handed it to his mouth, without mentioning the live broadcast again.

Chen Beiwu also breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he doesn't like live streaming.

Compared with live streaming, he prefers cultivation and fishing, but he can earn spirit stones from live streaming to supplement his family income.

Back then, my mother failed to break through to her foundation building stage, leaving her with hidden injuries and suffering from cold poison every year. Fortunately, the cold poison can be suppressed with a first-grade, low-grade elixir, the Frost Purifying Pill, so she doesn't have to endure the torment of the cold poison.

However, the value of the exotic pill is not low. A bottle of Pure Frost Pill costs two low-grade spirit stones and can only be used for one month. In a year, the cost of the medicine alone will cost twenty-four low-grade spirit stones.

The only low-grade spirit stones that my parents earned after working hard all year round were about a hundred, which was barely enough to cover daily expenses and they couldn't even pay off the foreign debts they had incurred in previous years.

Thinking of this, Chen Beiwu looked down at his heart.

People all say that it is difficult for a true dragon to emerge from shallow water, and it is difficult for a poor person to ascend to the immortal stage. They also say that the most difficult disease to cure in the world is poverty.

Since he was able to obtain the treasure passed down by his ancestors, even if he couldn't become an immortal and roam freely in the world in the future, he would at least make the Chen family soar to the top and not be disturbed by worldly things!
