Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 101 Trading
After finishing his meal and chatting with his mother about the shop's situation, Chen Beiwu took out his phone, logged into his Wanling app account, and confirmed that the payment for the Dendrobium nobile had been successfully settled.

'Great, I have spiritual energy again!'

Seeing his account balance, Chen Beiwu's eyes lit up, and he opened the online store to search for Frost Jade Bee Honey.

In order to receive the goods quickly, after comparing prices from three different vendors, he decisively chose to trade within the same county.

After all, the Frost Jade Queen Honey he purchased needed to be handed over to the sect's alchemy hall. If the honey was of poor quality, he would have a hard time explaining it, let alone getting the sect's contribution points.

Inspecting the goods on-site can guarantee the quality of royal jelly and prevent unscrupulous merchants from using inferior honey as a substitute.

"The Spirit Nourishing Pill worked well last time, so I can buy more this time." Chen Beiwu opened the Immortal Alliance's official website and purchased ten bottles for one thousand spirit coins.

He then opened the cultivation techniques category and helped Tie Dan choose a cultivation technique.

【Crimson Nightmare True Ultimate Technique】

【The True Scripture of the Southern Lands' Fire】

【The Secret Record of the Demon-Slaying Fierce Fighter】

【The Great Sun Lapis Lazuli Pure World Calamity Record】

Looking at these profound and obscure top-level fire-attribute techniques, Chen Beiwu hesitated.

Although Tie Dan is exceptionally intelligent and possesses a spirituality comparable to that of a Qi Refining cultivator, he is ultimately a strange beast and finds it difficult to comprehend the true meaning of human cultivation techniques.

Instead of choosing some top-tier fire-attribute cultivation techniques, he should choose a canine cultivation method that is more suitable for Tie Dan.

'Forget it, these techniques are powerful, but too difficult to master. I'll add them to my shopping cart as backup options for now.'

Chen Beiwu opened the cultivation technique filter, selected canine demon beast cultivation techniques, carefully selected two that were relatively suitable for Tie Dan's cultivation techniques.

One of the schools is called "Swallowing the Sun and Drinking the Qi".

There is a scripture called the "Prison Break Fire Scripture".

The former is a low-grade cultivation technique suitable for canine spirit beasts.

Cultivators can feed on fire, absorbing the rising sun's energy to replenish their three meridians and nurture the Scorching Sun Fire Seed. They can cultivate to the highest level of a third-realm demon general.

The latter is a flawed, top-grade cultivation technique suitable for beasts.

Cultivators need to temper their bodies with earth vein fire and shatter their old bodies four times in order to forge the Fire Fiend Body, condense immortal blood and immortal energy, and become a demon king of the fourth realm.

"Iron egg."

As soon as Chen Beiwu finished speaking, a figure immediately ran down from the upstairs training room to the downstairs.

"Choose your own cultivation method." Chen Beiwu opened the introductions of the cultivation methods one by one, handing the decision over to Tie Dan.

The previous cultivation methods were alright, but when Tie Dan saw the cultivation conditions for the Prison Break Fire Scripture, his eyes widened in surprise.

"Wang!"

"Wang!"

"Wang!"

Tie Dan shook his head frantically.

The Prison Break Fire Scripture is a self-harming technique.

To enter the beginner realm, one needs to find a first-tier fire vein to temper the body; to advance to the second realm of lesser demons, one needs to find a second-tier earth vein to temper the body; and to advance to the third realm of demon generals, one needs to find a third-tier earth fire to temper the body.

It is no exaggeration to say that every body tempering session in practicing this technique is a baptism of life and death, and the slightest carelessness can turn you into dog meat.

"Woof!" Tie Dan looked at Chen Beiwu with a wronged expression.

Chen Beiwu coughed twice and explained, "You can choose according to your own preferences. If you don't like any of them, you can continue to choose."

Upon hearing this, Ms. Huang Xiaoling turned around and glanced at Tiedan, her eyes filled with curiosity.

Ordinary parents would think that their son buying cultivation techniques for the beasts to learn is a pure waste of spiritual energy, but she doesn't think so.

Without Tie Dan, her husband would have been gone long ago. Compared to that, how many spirit essences is a basic cultivation technique worth?

"Wang!"

After hesitating for a moment, Tie Dan finally stretched out his paw and chose the one that caught his eye most: [Swallowing the Sun and Drinking Qi].

"Are you sure it's this technique?"

As soon as Chen Beiwu finished speaking, Tie Dan couldn't help but blink, caught in a dilemma.

After a long while, it finally made up its mind and nodded.

"Then I'll place the order." After saying that, Chen Beiwu clicked to pay.

The Earth-rank fire-attribute technique, Devouring the Sun and Drinking Qi, is divided into three levels. The first level, the introductory chapter, only costs three hundred spirit yuan, which is much cheaper than the Hellfire Scripture.

After buying the cultivation manual, Chen Beiwu then clicked on the water-related magic category.

Since the golden egg possesses the talent of absorbing the sea, it can devour cultivation technique jade slips to comprehend their true meaning. Perhaps it can also devour spell jade slips to learn spells, without him having to rack his brains to teach it.

The first-tier, top-grade extraordinary technique, [Scale Blade Escape], is priced at three hundred spirit coins. It can transform scales into blades, unleashing a silent attack with extremely strong penetrating power in an instant.

The first-tier, top-grade special technique, [Concealed Water Flow], is priced at 150 spirit yuan. It blends into the water flow, concealing one's aura and also greatly increasing the speed of running in water.

The first-tier superior-grade extraordinary technique, [Water Splitting Spike], costs forty spirit coins. It condenses water into spikes, which explode upon hitting an enemy, causing multiple instances of damage.

After buying all three extraordinary techniques, Chen Beiwu also spent 1,200 spirit coins to purchase two books.

One book is titled "Ten True Explanations of Talismanic Arts," and the other is titled "Six Spirits of Array Formations."

Despite their impressive titles, these two books are actually just textbooks on the two disciplines of talisman arrays.

The former records the drawing methods of ten second-tier talismans, while the latter records the array plate inscription methods and corresponding array arrangement knowledge of six second-tier spirit arrays.

"Buzz!"

Just then, my phone beeped with a notification.

"At 3 PM, the Lingnan Tea Ceremony live transaction will take place at the Beast Taming Training Grounds."

Upon seeing the message from the original ecological bee farm, Chen Beiwu's heart stirred.

As long as cultivators are willing to spend their spiritual energy, there are various types of opponents to choose from in the Beast Taming Training Grounds.

Before trading the queen bee honey, he could go to the Beast Taming Arena to hone the fighting spirit that the golden egg lacked, and lay a solid foundation so that he could gain practical combat experience in the Southern Wilderness later.

So Chen Beiwu glanced at the time, left early, and headed to the Beast Taming Training Ground in Yuankong County.

As soon as they entered the spacious Beast Taming Arena, a beautiful female cultivator's eyes lit up, and she immediately stepped forward to ask, "Fellow Daoist, do you have a membership card?"

"No," Chen Beiwu said.

The training grounds for beast taming are very expensive, far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators; generally only second-generation cultivators can afford them.

This was also his first time entering the Beast Taming Arena.

“Without a card, an hour of combat in our arena costs thirty spirit coins, but with a card it’s twenty spirit coins per hour. Fellow Daoist, why don’t you get a card first? It’ll be more cost-effective that way.” The female cultivator smiled sweetly.

'No wonder it's so deserted here,' Chen Beiwu thought to himself.

Thirty spirit coins per hour, that's equivalent to two months' salary for a Qi Refining Level 6 cultivator working hard.

"No need, I'll just come for an hour." Chen Beiwu shook his head. He didn't plan to come often, so there was no need to get a membership card.

"Now you can enjoy discounts by applying for a card for only 200 spirit yuan." The female cultivator actively promoted, "If you don't have enough spirit yuan on you, I have a fast approval channel. You can borrow 200 spirit yuan in just two minutes, and the maximum loan amount is 1,000 spirit yuan."

"I already said I don't need it." Chen Beiwu glanced at her coldly.

Getting involved in a "cultivation loan" is easy, but paying it off is incredibly difficult.
