Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 18 Fighting Chunting
"Fellow Daoists, tonight's live broadcast ends here. See you next time."

As soon as Chen Beiwu finished speaking, the phone screen went black.

A series of question marks immediately popped up in the black screen live broadcast room.

"This guy is so shameless. He only broadcasts live for an hour each time and has no professionalism at all." Xu Ziqing complained.

Xu Lingling looked relieved: "Fishing is so boring, it's better to end it quickly."

Hearing this, Xu Ziqing looked at her best friend strangely.

"What's wrong? Did my makeup get smudged?" Xu Lingling touched her face.

"Don't you like Chen Beiwu very much?" Xu Ziqing suddenly said.

Xu Lingling blushed instantly, "Nonsense, who would like that stinky guy!"

"So you don't like him." Xu Ziqing smiled and said jokingly, "Then I'll pursue him."

Xu Lingling opened her eyes wide, opened her mouth, and looked incredulous.

Then she stammered, "Didn't you say when you were little that you would first achieve the Golden Elixir, then start a family?"

"That was when I was young and ignorant." Xu Ziqing supported her chin with her right hand and chuckled, "My mom said that good men are very popular these days. If you meet someone you like, you should take action directly, otherwise you will definitely regret it later."

At this point, she looked at her bestie solemnly and clenched her fair left hand into a fist. "I'm not afraid of missing out on a good match, I'm just afraid of leaving a knot in my heart. If you can't cultivate the ability to do whatever you want, how can you achieve immortality?"

Xu Lingling pursed her lips, a trace of reluctance and regret welling up in her heart.

If she had Xu Ziqing's determination, she wouldn't have stayed at the sixth level of Qi training for a whole year, and she wouldn't have missed Chen...

On the other side, Chen Beiwu returned home and met Chen Dong who was about to go out to work.

"How was the catch today?" Chen Dong glanced at the fishing box.

He knew that his son had a strange luck and could not catch any fish. Instead, he often caught some strange things.

"Hehe, I'm lucky today. I caught a 50-jin wild black carp. I can steam it or braise it." Chen Beiwu opened the fishing box and took out a lively giant from the box like showing off a treasure.

Chen Dong glanced at the fish head and suddenly asked, "How much is this fish per pound?"

"It's not expensive, just one cent per pound."

As soon as Chen Beiwu said this, he knew he was exposed.

Chen Dong suppressed his laughter and said seriously, "Yes, the wild fish in the market are indeed delicious."

Seeing the long-lost smile on his father's face, Chen Beiwu also smiled.

Very good, very good. In ancient times, King You of Zhou played with the marquis with beacon fires to win a smile from Bao Si. Today, Chen Beiwu caught a fake fish in the market to win a smile from Chun Ting.

"The big black carp is just a small catch this time." He looked around deliberately, then pulled Chen Dong into the house. "As for the big catch, we'll talk about it after we get home."

"Stop it, I still have to go to work." Chen Dong waved his hand.

It's not like he hasn't gone fishing in the Pearl River before, so what good things can he catch there?

"Deng deng dang deng deng!"

Under Chen Dong's curious gaze, Chen Beiwu solemnly took out an iron box that looked quite old.

"Sure enough, it's just another pile of junk," Chen Dong thought.

Chen Beiwu handed the iron box over, "Dad, open it and take a look."

Chen Dong casually opened the iron box, and the serrated leaves revealed inside made him slightly stunned, and even his arms trembled.

"Where did this thing come from?" he asked in disbelief.

"Where else could it have come from? I just caught it from the Pearl River. It was just out of the water not long ago, you see it's still wet inside." Chen Beiwu poked the blood-faced vine.

Chen Dong was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "This... can you catch a second-level spiritual medicine in the Pearl River?"

"What second-level elixir? What are you dreaming about so late at night? Why aren't you going to work yet?" Huang Xiaoling came out after hearing the noise in the living room. "Wife, you're more knowledgeable. Please help me check if this is real," Chen Dong said solemnly.

Huang Xiaoling stepped forward to take a look, a trace of surprise on his face, "A second-level spiritual medicine, the Blood-Faced Vine, over a hundred years old!"

"Isn't that awesome? I caught it!" Chen Beiwu pretended to be proud.

"Blood-faced vine is a second-grade, top-grade water-based spiritual medicine. It only appears in the habitats of third-grade precious beasts, and has a small chance of appearing in the places where second-grade spiritual beasts have fallen. It is one of the more valuable second-grade spiritual medicines.

This special elixir can neither be refined into pills nor used by cultivators to improve their cultivation level, but it can purify the blood and cultivation of water-based ginseng beasts. The purchase price on the market is generally five hundred spirit stones.

A blood-faced vine that's over a hundred years old has a strong medicinal power, equivalent to a second-grade, top-grade elixir, and can be sold for a high price of nine hundred spirit stones."

After finishing the information, Huang Xiaoling frowned slightly and looked back and forth at his son.

"What's wrong? Is the quality of this elixir not right?" Chen Beiwu pretended to be curious.

He originally planned to leave this blood-faced vine to a fellow beast he had never met before.

However, the atmosphere at home has been rather strange recently. Even my father has to do a job making bricks in exchange for his body. It is obvious that he is extremely short of spirit stones.

It just so happened that the blood-faced vine liked water, blood, and rust, and could survive in water without rotting or losing its medicinal properties. So he thought of using the slightly risky method of fishing to whitewash it.

"The quality is just right." Huang Xiaoling said seriously.

Hearing this, Chen Dong looked at his wife eagerly.

Saved!
The Blood-Faced Vine could be sold for nine hundred low-grade spirit stones on the market. Even if the pharmacy's purchase price was ten to twenty percent lower than the market price, it was still worth at least seven hundred low-grade spirit stones, more than enough to cover the cost of the surgery.

"This blood-faced vine is compatible with the properties of your spiritual roots, and can be used on future fellow beasts." Huang Xiaoling said with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen Dong hesitated to speak. He wanted to speak several times, but was stopped by his wife's eyes.

Chen Beiwu simply said, "My family is short of money, so let's exchange it for spirit stones first. I'm sure I'll be able to catch better spiritual medicines by then."

After saying that, he turned and left, not giving his parents any chance to refuse.

Huang Xiaoling and Chen Dong looked at each other in bewilderment as they watched their son disappear.

Beiwu was considered lucky to encounter such a good thing once, and there was no chance of it happening again.

"Sell the blood-faced vine."

"Quit your brick-making job."

Huang Xiaoling and Chen Dong spoke at the same time.

Immediately, the two smiled at each other, and the fatigue accumulated in their hearts disappeared.

……

On the second floor, Chen Beiwu looked at Tiedan solemnly.

"Want to practice with me?"

"Wang."

"Very good, then do you know what is most important when practicing with me?"

"Wang Wang!"

"That's a good answer. Loyalty is the most important thing." Chen Beiwu nodded slightly and reminded him, "As the saying goes, if loyalty is not absolute, then it is absolutely disloyal!"

Hearing this, Tiedan tilted his ears back and wagged his tail, making a "dong dong dong" sound, which left red marks on Chen Beiwu's calf.

"Don't try that on me." Chen Beiwu grabbed Tiedan's tail.

In addition to his talent for controlling fire, Tiedan also possesses terrifying physical strength.

It's okay for it to act like a spoiled child at ordinary times, but if Tiedan gets angry, its tail can instantly shatter stubborn stones, and its destructive power is comparable to the first-grade intermediate magic "Sharp Gold Technique".
