Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 537: First Glimpse of Talent

Three days have passed in the blink of an eye since the incident involving the demonic cultivator pirate group.

After Chen Xueqing explained her purpose and the two confirmed their cooperative relationship, she quietly left.

The entire Spirit Mine Island returned to its former order and peace. However, the difference was that after this incident, the people on the island were much more united than before, and everything was now determined to be based on immortality.

This caused Yu Changsheng's prestige on the island to reach its peak in an instant, and the events on the Spirit Mine Island spread without any surprise, causing shockwaves and astonishment in all directions.

Countless eyes were drawn to the scene, causing quite a stir even on the Sea Beast Island. It also stirred up considerable waves among some interested individuals, and for a time, the name Changsheng began to come into the view of some people.

Many people are actually well aware of the specifics of what happened on Spirit Mine Island, and while the identity of the person behind the demonic cultivator pirate ship may not be publicly known, it is not a secret in the eyes of some.

Therefore, the news that Yu Changsheng had almost wiped out the entire Demon Show Pirate Gang and severely injured the leader of the Demon Cultivator Pirate Gang spread like wildfire and attracted attention from all sides. Of course, most people were just watching the show and did not express their opinions.

However, from the perspective of the other side, it has a different meaning, just like the sixth victory, Chen Xueqing, and also like the people on the side of the seventh holy son Wang Sheng.

After all, although Wang Sheng had tried to conceal things and hadn't made it too obvious, there were some things he was fully aware of.

Although Wang Sheng led the entire demonic cultivator pirate group to invade Spirit Mine Island, fortunately, his goal from beginning to end was not Spirit Mine Island itself, but Yu Changsheng within it.

Furthermore, he did not show any obvious traces of himself. Therefore, some high-ranking officials on the Sea Beast Sky Island remained silent about this matter, which can be regarded as tacit approval. This was mainly because he was the Seventh Holy Son, and more importantly, Yu Changsheng had not been of high regard to them before.

Therefore, they did not choose to stop Wang Sheng's nonsense. In their view, Wang Sheng could kill such an insignificant outer sect elder if he wanted to, as long as he did not go too far or make too obvious a direct attempt to seize the spirit mine island.

After all, no matter how much trouble he causes, Wang Sheng is ultimately the seventh holy son of the Sea Beast Heavenly Island. As one of their own, it's not a big deal for him to take some of their own things and resources.

However, an unexpected event has occurred. The dignified Seventh Holy Son was actually dealt with by an outer sect elder, which shocked everyone and naturally piqued their interest in Yu Changsheng's side.

It can be said that only at this point did Yu Changsheng truly enter the sights of some high-ranking members of the Sea Beast Heavenly Island, and information about him was quickly unearthed.

.........

.........

Wang Shengfeng, the main hall at the summit.

"Young Master, the Fifth Holy Son, Gongbo Yingyan, requests an audience. He said he heard that your injuries are severe and came specifically to see you. He also gave me a healing pill, the Azure Rock Three-Pattern Pill, and instructed me to make sure it is delivered."

Inside the main hall, at the core of the formation, a servant, looking cautious and trembling slightly, bowed and knelt before the figure sitting cross-legged in front of him, respectfully saying...

The figure before him was surrounded by spiritual energy, with furrowed brows and closed eyes, his breath rising and falling with each exhalation. On his right arm, a shocking sword wound spread out, penetrating deep into the flesh, almost severing the arm.

Above it, a destructive sword aura swirled and lingered for a long time. Suddenly, Wang Sheng opened his eyes, a blood-red glint flashing in them. Several veins bulged on his forehead, revealing a ferocious look. After exhaling a long breath, he lowered his eyes and looked at the sword on his right arm, a hint of resentment flashing across his face.

"Damn it, where did this sword come from? Three days have passed, and only half of its sword intent has been worn away. Now I can only barely suppress it with my cultivation."

Wang Sheng inwardly roared, feeling helpless. He looked up at his servant, listened to his words, and a hint of impatience appeared on his face. He sneered and said:

"Would Gongbo Yingyan be so kind? Aren't they all just waiting to see me make a fool of myself? The Azure Rock Three-Pattern Pill is indeed a very precious pill. He just wants to take this opportunity to see if the rumors outside are true."

His words were cold, his tone full of sarcasm, it was unclear whether he was referring to Gongbo Yingyan or himself.

Upon hearing this, the servants lowered their heads even further, remaining silent and uneasy, too afraid to speak.

"I refused. Tell the outside world that I am currently in seclusion at a crucial point and will not see anyone. Also, please thank Gongbo Yingyan for his kindness and say that he should keep the pill himself."

After a long silence, Wang Sheng suppressed his anger, waved his hand, and said coldly.

He naturally had no interest in seeing these visitors now, and as for the Azure Rock Three-Pattern Pill, it was just a fourth-grade pill, nothing special.

In particular, he did not get along with Gongbo Yingyan.

Wang Sheng could even imagine the smiles on the faces of the various holy sons after news of his events on Spirit Mine Island spread. Thinking of this, his already gloomy mood became even more vexed.

"it is good."

The servant responded respectfully in a low voice and withdrew.

After taking a deep breath, Wang Sheng shook his head, suppressed his thoughts, and looked down at the injury on his right arm. His expression involuntarily darkened, and he gently stroked the injury with his left hand, a sense of gloom appearing in his eyes.

"This sword..."

Wang Sheng pondered, recalling that sword strike in his mind. His pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly. After a long while, he exhaled a deep breath.

"How can an ordinary sword be so troublesome? The residual sword energy is also so terrifying, hindering the recovery of my injuries. I can only take it slowly."

Wang Sheng sighed softly. If it were an ordinary injury to his right arm, with his cultivation level, limb regeneration would be no problem.

If Yu Changsheng's sword strike hadn't been so extraordinary, he wouldn't be in such a predicament where he can't even show his face now.

"It seems that Yu Changsheng is indeed more troublesome than I thought. Is this sword strike a Saint-level technique...?"

Wang Sheng pondered in his heart. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that this sword was extraordinary. Although the Saint-level technique startled him, he was not so bad as to not recognize it.

However, there was one thing Wang Sheng still couldn't figure out.

"How did he, a cultivator from a minor barbarian sect, master such a technique...?"

Wang Sheng pondered, somewhat puzzled: "Moreover, he is so young, and there is no powerful force behind him to nurture him. How did he manage to raise five beasts, and all of them are king-level beasts? It's really strange."

Wang Sheng was somewhat surprised and uncertain. Recalling the battle three days ago, he pursed his lips slightly and looked downcast.

As a beast tamer himself, he naturally knew how many resources were needed to cultivate a high-level beast and make it grow in a short period of time.

Spirit beasts have a much longer lifespan than humans, so their growth cycle is also much longer. This is true even for beast tamers with high bloodlines. After all, bloodline represents potential and the height of achievement, not the speed of growth.

To make a spirit beast grow up quickly, one must continuously invest resources and effort. This is the case with his Golden-Eyed Black Horned Beast. If he didn't have a powerful force supporting him and not lack resources, he would not have been able to reach such a height.

Even so, he has only reached the peak of the fourth rank.

And this was under the premise that he only had one beast. On the other hand, Yu Changsheng actually had five beasts at the same time, and they all seemed to be growing quite well, which naturally surprised and puzzled him.

He knew in his heart that the resources required for the five beasts to grow to this level so quickly without slowing down Yu Changsheng's cultivation speed were enormous.

Yu Changsheng is a cultivator from a small sect, with only a handful of Purple Mansion cultivators within his sect. How could he possibly afford to take on such a responsibility?

"Interesting. A Saint-level cultivation technique, five King-level beasts, and at such a young age, with such high cultivation. This Yu Changsheng truly deserves to be called a prodigy. It seems you have other opportunities..."

A glint flashed in Wang Sheng's eyes, and as he pondered, he was also somewhat alarmed.

"A beast tamer who is also proficient in swordsmanship, possesses remarkable physical abilities, supernatural powers, and magical skills, and has a powerful soul, yet doesn't have the resources of a major force supporting him, it seems you have quite a bit of good fortune on your side..."

Wang Sheng thought to himself, subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then let out a long sigh, shook his head, and suppressed the sense of surprise and doubt in his heart.

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

"However, I didn't use my full strength in that battle with you, otherwise, it would have been hard to say who would have won..."

Wang Sheng thought to himself, his gaze low, but he didn't feel much better because of it.

Due to certain concerns, some of his signature traits were not openly displayed during his battle with Yu Changsheng, lest someone with ulterior motives use them to their advantage.

The most obvious example is his tamed beast, the Golden-Eyed Black-Horned Beast, which was kept as a backup plan and never used.

However, aside from that, he knew in his heart that apart from not using some desperate methods, he had performed almost everything he could. And for him, to be defeated by Yu Changsheng with his peak Purple Mansion cultivation was unbelievable and a disgrace.

In particular, neither he nor his opponent, Yu Changsheng, used beast control.

Instead, he genuinely used his mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivation to severely injure himself. Although this was partly due to his carelessness—he hadn't expected Yu Changsheng to possess such terrifying swordsmanship—he had lost, and that was that.

He even used his life-saving Nascent Soul protection once; otherwise, his injuries would have been far more severe.

Only Wang Sheng himself knows the true feeling behind it.

"I've always been the one to defeat enemies across borders, but I never imagined that one day I would be defeated by someone of lower realms... What a disgrace..."

Wang Sheng murmured to himself for a long time, then exhaled, suppressing the awkwardness in his heart. He raised his eyes again, his eyes bloodshot, feeling the pain in his arm. He gritted his teeth, and resentment sprouted endlessly in his heart, turning into a monstrous killing intent, which he eventually suppressed.

"You will die when we meet again!"

Wang Sheng murmured, circulating his cultivation to suppress his injuries. He then used other methods to conceal them, making himself appear as if everything was normal. After a moment of contemplation, he slowly rose and walked down the mountain.

"Since Yu Changsheng was assigned to Spirit Mine Island by the Third Elder, there are some things I might be able to ask the Third Elder for help with."

Wang Sheng pondered for a moment, then flew towards the mountain where the Third Elder was located.

"Yu Changsheng, no matter how talented you are, this is the North Sea, the Sea Beast Heavenly Island. You are helpless and adrift, like a piece of duckweed. How long can you hold on? Suppressing you is not difficult."

Wang Sheng sneered inwardly. Thinking about these things, he soon arrived at the Third Elder's mountain peak and the gate of his residence.

Standing outside the door, looking at the Third Elder's residence shrouded in an array, he straightened his expression, revealing a perfectly appropriate hint of respect on his face. His tone also softened considerably as he slowly clasped his hands in a fist salute, lowered his head, and bowed deeply.

"The Seventh Holy Son, Wang Sheng, has come to pay his respects to the Third Elder. He requests permission to see the Third Elder."

His tone was neither arrogant nor humble, and his attitude was modest and measured; all his outward sharpness was concealed.

Even though he was a disciple of the Sequence, he was not the only Holy Son of the Holy Land. Facing the Third Elder, a Sequence Elder of the Beast Taming Sect and a Void Refinement expert, he naturally did not dare to put on airs.

The so-called sharpness, when displayed when facing a Nascent Soul elder or an ordinary disciple, is called arrogance; but when displayed when facing a Void Refinement expert, it is simply disrespectful and ignorant of one's own mortality.

As soon as he finished speaking, a moment later, the Third Elder's languid yet calm voice echoed softly in Wang Sheng's ears: "Wait."

"it is good."

Wang Sheng nodded respectfully, maintaining his posture, and stood quietly outside the door without showing the slightest impatience.

Now, after about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the Third Elder's voice came again, faintly: "Come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the array protecting the Third Elder's pavilion slowly opened. Wang Sheng clasped his hands in thanks and strode away.

"Thank you, Third Elder."

Inside the residence, it was still the same courtyard. The Third Elder remained calm, not even turning his head as Wang Sheng entered. He focused on tending to the spiritual plants at hand, and asked seemingly casually:

"Wang Sheng, is it? What brings you to this old man's place today? What brings you here?"

His tone was calm, revealing no fluctuations in his emotions.

Wang Sheng asked, then lowered his head, bowed to the Third Elder, and said with a smile, "Third Elder is too kind. It has been quite a while since I last saw you. I thought I'd come and visit you to show my respect."

As Wang Sheng spoke, he lightly touched his storage ring with his finger. The next moment, an antique wooden box appeared, which Wang Sheng held in his hands. He took a few steps forward and respectfully handed it to the Third Elder, saying:

"These are tea leaves from the Deep Sea Wonderful Life Tree that I obtained by chance in Hailuoyuan City a few days ago. Knowing that the Third Elder usually enjoys drinking tea, I would like to offer them as a token of my respect. I hope the Third Elder will accept them."

"After all, Wang Sheng is, in a way, a member of the Beast Taming Sect." (End of Chapter)
