Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 258 Breaking Through the Dome

Intense blood-red light flashed on the body of the Rainbow Star Deer. The Rainbow Star Deer let out a soft cry, and its cultivation level rapidly increased. Its cultivation level, which had already reached the critical point, broke through without any surprise and continued to rise.

[Consumed one unit of Mist Beast Essence, successfully fed the Colorful Star Deer, gaining 50000 Essence Points!]

[Colorful Star Deer advances to Tier 2, Level 4, gaining 10000 Essence Points!]

Two consecutive notification sounds brought a smile to Yu Changsheng's face, and the aura on the Rainbow Star Deer rose again until it reached a certain point, seemingly reaching its limit, and the essence of the mist beast was completely consumed.

"Peak of the fourth level of the second tier..." Yu Changsheng was stunned. "As expected of the origin of the Vajra Sky-Piercing Ape, it almost directly advanced to the fifth level of the second tier."

Yu Changsheng pondered, secretly surprised.

"It seems that if we capture two more ordinary beasts for it, the Rainbow Star Deer will be able to break through again."

Yu Changsheng smiled brightly, patted the head of the colorful star deer, and comforted the other beasts at the same time.

"Don't worry, you'll have it too."

With the demise of the Vajra Sky-Piercing Ape, the vast white mist began to thin and began to disappear. Yu Changsheng investigated the white mist again and, after confirming that there were no mist beasts present, left the place with a hint of regret.

The Myriad Spirits Technique was activated again, but this time, even when it reached its limit, no white mist was detected. However, other people were spotted sporadically, but Yu Changsheng did not recognize them and did not greet them.

Left with no other choice, Yu Changsheng randomly chose a direction, unleashed his full power, and sped away. When he reached the edge of the limit range of the Myriad Spirits Technique again, he used the Myriad Spirits Technique to investigate once more.

This process was repeated repeatedly, and the speed was quite fast. In half a day, the explored territory had become quite vast.

Before long, night fell...

Within the secret realm, there is neither bright light nor complete darkness, whether it is day or night. Even when night falls, the dark red sky becomes even more gloomy, with a blood-red glow and a faint phantom of a blood moon hanging in the void.

Inside a cave that had been temporarily dug out, Yu Changsheng sat cross-legged, his breathing deep and even.

"It's been almost a day, and everything in this secret realm seems to be much more active at night."

Yu Changsheng pondered, activating the Myriad Spirits Technique. His vast divine sense spread out along with the spirits, reaching out to the grass, the trees, the birds, the ladybugs...

All of this became Yu Changsheng's eyes, and a vast amount of information flooded into Yu Changsheng's mind, which he examined one by one.

"What lies above this secret realm in the sky...?"

Yu Changsheng pondered for a moment, then a thought suddenly arose in his mind. He looked up at the dark red sky with curiosity in his eyes.

He had tried, and once he reached a certain height, a law prohibiting air movement existed above this secret realm, preventing cultivators from ascending.

"However... it seems that the native creatures of this secret realm are not affected by its restrictions."

Yu Changsheng's mind stirred.

"Spirit control!"

So, he focused more of his spiritual attention on a flying crane. The crane flapped its wings, and a lively light suddenly appeared in its cloudy eyes. Yu Changsheng's spirit attached itself to it, and he controlled the crane to flap its wings sharply. Its body became streamlined and it sped up into the sky.

"The Myriad Spirits Technique is truly domineering, its amplification and support effects are undeniable. It's just a pity that the spirit control technique can only be used on some beasts that haven't yet developed intelligence, and it has quite a few limitations..."

"Even with my current cultivation level, it's still a bit difficult to use. If my cultivation level reaches a higher level, could I unleash it with a single thought and control all things...?"

As Yu Changsheng drifted into a daze, the sharp-beaked crane soared into the sky. Gradually, the mountains appeared smaller and the land more expansive. A fierce wind howled, and the surrounding scenery receded little by little, leaving only a gloomy, dark red sky, a few wisps of clouds, and an ever-growing blood moon in the sky, replacing everything in his sight.

"Old man..."

After reaching a certain limit, the crane shuddered, its eyes instinctively revealing pain, and the feeling of being torn apart was simultaneously transmitted to Yu Changsheng's senses.

"Hmm? Is it the top?"

Yu Changsheng frowned, a look of pain on his face. The sharp-beaked crane attached to him suddenly flapped its wings, and with a whooshing sound, its body once again charged upwards!

"Click, click..."

A faint sound of shattering glass could be heard, and the spatial blockade paused for a moment. In an instant, the sharp-beaked crane transformed into a stunning rainbow, breaking through everything and continuing to soar high!

A dizzying sensation swept through the room! The surrounding light suddenly dimmed, the blood moon vanished, and the gloomy sky disappeared as well. The connection between Yu Changsheng's control of the sharp-beaked crane and his spirit suddenly weakened, seemingly due to the vast distance and extreme instability.

"This is……"

Yu Changsheng took a deep breath. The sharp-beaked crane looked up and saw countless brilliant stars. All around was pitch black, with only starlight flowing quietly like water. Under his feet, clouds and mist swirled, and the mountains and landforms within the secret realm appeared one by one.

Not far away, white mist surged, and a huge, majestic mountain peak, piercing the starry sky, appeared and disappeared in the clouds!

"No, it's not a mountain, it's a spirit beast!?"

Yu Changsheng's eyes widened in shock. A fierce wind swept through, tearing through the void and blowing away a corner of the white mist that enveloped everything, revealing a... beast limb comparable to a mountain.

This limb is entirely dark blue and yellow, with numerous wrinkles and a faint black aura. Mysterious and ancient patterns are engraved on it, and a vast and powerful aura bursts forth from it.

A terrifying pressure was leaking out, white mist drifted down and hung beneath the sky, and countless laws of the Great Dao transformed into chains, encircling the exposed limb layer by layer. These chains pierced the void, leading to the unknown depths, and the sighs of time and the ancient aura rushed in together.

Thick, deathly energy swirled around the giant beast, shrouding it in white mist so that Yu Changsheng couldn't see it clearly. However, the beast seemed to have noticed Yu Changsheng's presence, and in an instant, a beastly roar erupted, filled with rage. Although it lacked some staying power, it still possessed a power that shook heaven and earth.

"hiss……!"

The beast's cry, like a tortoise or a snake, gave people a sense of naturalness and flowing water, as if it contained the Dao. As a result, lotus flowers bloomed in the void, and Yu Changsheng instantly fell into a daze, his mind clear, and his cultivation showed a tendency to surge.

The attached crane, upon hearing this cry, suddenly shattered without warning, vanishing without a trace as if erased from a painting by an eraser.

The scene that Yu Changsheng experienced also came to an abrupt end.

"Pfft...!"

Inside the cave, Yu Changsheng regained his senses and suddenly spat out a mouthful of bright red blood, his chest heaving violently as he gasped for breath.

The wisp of true spirit attached to the crane shattered, causing a backlash that left him weak and disoriented.

"What kind of spirit beast is that...?"

After a while, having calmed down a bit, Yu Changsheng swallowed two pills. His complexion became slightly rosy, and he fell into thought.

"That beast's roar..."

Yu Changsheng frowned and fell into deep thought.

"That beast's cry... I feel like I've heard it somewhere before, but..."

Although he couldn't see the beast's appearance clearly, its roar gave him a sense of familiarity.

But he was certain that he had never seen this giant beast.

"Moreover, why did that giant beast contain such great malice? It seemed to be filled with anger. If it weren't for the last moment..."

Yu Changsheng was slightly puzzled, and had some doubts and even more guesses in his heart.

At the last moment, he seemed to faintly hear someone, let out a soft exclamation, and then a tremendous force shielded him from the beast's impact, bringing him back...

Otherwise, I'm afraid I would be suffering from much more than just vomiting blood right now.

"Forget it, this secret realm really has many strange things. Since I can't figure it out, I'll stop thinking about it. Anyway, it's none of my business for now."

After a while, Yu Changsheng let out a soft breath, shook his head and stopped thinking about these questions. After adjusting his breathing for a while, the Myriad Spirits Technique continued to spread outwards.

A gentle breeze rustles the lotus blossoms on the mountains, and thoughts wander through this secluded paradise, carried away by the wind…

“Eh…”

Yu Changsheng let out a soft "hmm," a hint of surprise flashing across his face, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

"Such a vast expanse of white mist, how many beasts must be inside?"

Yu Changsheng took a deep breath. In his perception, a vast expanse of white mist was rolling in from the Extreme Movement Land, its momentum as powerful as a great tide, and its reputation for power was formidable.

The fog was extremely vast, with no end in sight. As far as the eye could see, it seemed to replace the sky and the earth, all covered by the white fog, concealing everything else and making it impossible to see.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Yu Changsheng could only roughly estimate that the white mist probably stretched for as far as three thousand miles, which was quite astonishing, with muffled thunder rumbling within it.

What's even more intimidating is that, unlike the white mist Yu Changsheng had encountered before, this white mist was moving! It swept across all directions with an aura of dominance and annihilation.

Without hesitation, after sensing the direction, Yu Changsheng immediately set off, transforming into a rainbow and speeding towards that direction.

"That white mist is probably the core of this secret realm, and also the source of my opportunity for this journey!"

As Yu Changsheng sped along, he pondered. After a stick of incense had burned, he could see the edge of the white mist at the edge of his vision. Within its churning, it resembled a giant beast with its fangs wide open, ready to devour people.

Without much hesitation, Yu Changsheng, still vigilant, plunged headlong into it with a burning gaze.

"Buzzing..."

The sound of a bellowing rang in his ears. As Yu Changsheng plunged in, the white mist remained completely unaffected, enveloping him entirely before continuing its powerful eastward advance.

"This place should allow my beast taming to advance to the next level!"

Within the white mist, it was almost impossible to see anything. Yu Changsheng moved forward slowly with caution, his divine sense suppressed to nearly 90%, only able to probe the situation within a small area.

With a wave of his sleeve, three streaks of light transformed into crimson serpents, while a colorful star deer and a golden-winged eagle appeared beside him. The man and the three beasts each occupied one of the four cardinal directions, slowly exploring the area.

"Golden-Winged Eagle, Gale!"

Yu Changsheng frowned. His divine sense, comparable to that of a Golden Core cultivator, usually allowed him to see almost everything, but this feeling of being completely clueless was unpleasant.

So, they tried to summon the Golden-Winged Roc. The Golden-Winged Roc nodded, flapped its large wings, and a violent gale swept through, blowing away the thick white mist. But as soon as the mist was blown away, it immediately replenished itself from all directions, remaining as dense as ever.

"It seems this white mist possesses some special properties."

Yu Changsheng was helpless but didn't pay much attention. While remaining vigilant, he slowly walked towards the center of the white mist.

White mist billowed, occasionally punctuated by cries that echoed in all directions, like weeping and lamenting. Blurry figures ran through the mist, stirring it up, and pairs of fierce eyes would occasionally flash, greedily eyeing the intruders.

"Roar! Ro ...

Whoosh!

The next instant, the mist surged, and three crimson lions, their bodies wreathed in white flames, flew out from the side, opening their blood-red maws and lunging at Yu Changsheng.

Yu Changsheng dodged the first attacking Crimson Flame Lion with a swift movement, then leaped up with a powerful aura, his blood and qi condensing into his fist, and smashed it down hard on the head of the second Crimson Flame Lion!

The colorful star deer was excited. It gently stepped forward with its front hoof and activated its Soul-Stepping ability, instantly launching a soul-impact attack on the three crimson flame lions, restricting their movements.

"Snap, snap...!"

As soon as Yu Changsheng slammed his fist down, the Crimson Flame Lion's head snapped shut with a cracking sound.

Yu Changsheng remained calm, changed his fist into a palm, and suddenly gripped the drooping beast head, unleashing tremendous force with his fingers.

"boom!"

The crimson lion didn't even have time to let out a scream before its head exploded and vanished into mist. Its body was also wiped away, leaving only a blood-red mass behind.

After carefully storing the essence of the mist beast, Yu Changsheng turned around and looked at the other two Crimson Flame Lions charging towards him. His eyes remained calm. He flipped over and leaped, landing lightly on the broad back of one of the Crimson Flame Lions. He landed steadily and then threw a punch at the Crimson Flame Lion!

"roar!!"

The crimson lion roared, struggling to shake Yu Changsheng off, but before it knew it, vines spread out from the void, encircling its body and limbs, restricting its movement.

The fiery lion was immediately unable to move.

"boom!!"

"Thousand Mountains Fist!"

Yu Changsheng uttered a few words softly, his fist covered in the light of earth and stone, and he slammed down...

As expected, the Crimson Flame Lion only had time to let out a mournful howl before its head exploded and its body collapsed into white mist, leaving only the essence of the mist beast behind.

The Crimson Serpent also achieved its goal. With a leap, its massive body completely entangled the last Crimson Flame Lion, seemingly unaffected by the white flames covering its body, which could not scorch it in the slightest.

The snake's body tightened, and the sound of bones breaking echoed like popping beans. The Crimson Lion struggled, but it had no chance to resist in the face of absolute power. In the end, as expected, its body collapsed and it perished.

In the blink of an eye, all three attacking Crimson Flame Lion Mist Beasts were annihilated.

After putting away the three portions of Mist Beast Origin, Yu Changsheng thought for a moment, glanced at the longing Rainbow Star Deer, and gave them all to it.

"hold head high!"

The colorful star deer roared and swallowed the three drops of mist beast essence in one gulp. In an instant, the blood light intensified, and its cultivation, which had already reached a bottleneck, broke through as if by natural flow.

[Successfully fed the Rainbow Star Deer using three portions of Mist Beast Essence! Gained 25000 Essence Points!]

[Colorful Star Deer breaks through to the fifth level of the second tier, gaining 20000 Essence Points!]
