Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 27: Grass in the Stone

A cultivator who breaks through to the middle stage of Qi training can awaken the special spiritual power of spiritual consciousness.

Generally, the radius of the spiritual consciousness of a cultivator at the fourth level of Qi training is about one foot. It can be increased to three feet when he advances to the fifth level, and to five feet when he advances to the sixth level.

As the saying goes, within five feet, you can sense everything.

If a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi training uses his spiritual sense, he can completely dodge the talisman bullets with his physical body.

As for cultivators in the late stages of Qi training, the range of their spiritual awareness will change according to their own talents. The stronger the talent, the wider the range of their spiritual awareness.

Generally, the radius of the spiritual consciousness of a cultivator at the seventh level of Qi training is about ten feet, that of the eighth level is about two feet, and that of the ninth level is about three feet.

However, the radius of Chen Beiwu's spiritual consciousness underwent a terrifying qualitative change under the blessing of the Nine Breaths Subduing Divine Ability and the Nine Breaths Chaos Treasure. His perception range far exceeded that of cultivators of the same level, reaching a huge five meters.

It is no exaggeration to say that in terms of the scope and strength of spiritual consciousness alone, even a ninth-level Qi training cultivator named Chengyun cannot catch up with Chen Beiwu, but this is not the most terrifying point.

Perhaps it was because the level of the Nine Breaths Chaos was too high, able to cover the sky and capture luck. The spiritual consciousness nurtured by Chen Beiwu also possessed a rather outrageous characteristic: concealment, so that his spiritual perception was extremely covert and almost impossible to be detected by cultivators of the same realm.

"You dare to set up a trap under my divine sense? If not you, who will die?" Chen Beiwu shook his head speechlessly, picked up the storage bag on the ground, turned around and walked towards the direction of the smoke.

In the smoke and dust, a female corpse with a broken arm had lost all its flesh and blood, revealing a nail with traces of blood stains.

"What a vicious magical weapon!" Chen Beiwu's pupils shrank slightly.

With his vision, he could naturally see that Lin Yu did not die from Tiedan's sneak attack, but from the backlash of his own magic weapon.

"seal up!"

Chen Beiwu put on the sealing talisman without hesitation and carefully put away the soul-catching nail.

This magic weapon is very strange, and he will not use it easily until he understands how to use it.

"It's time to go, Tiedan."

After dealing with the traces of the battle, Chen Beiwu immediately used the wind control to leave quickly to avoid running into other cultivators.

……

In a cave dozens of miles away from the battle site, Chen Beiwu cut off a large piece of phantom rat wolf meat and handed it to the impatient Tiedan, and began to sort out the harvest.

"These Tribulation Cultivators are so poor!" Chen Beiwu shook his storage bag, somewhat puzzled.

It is said that killing people and setting fires will bring you a golden belt, but why do these robbery cultivators have so few spirit stones on them? The three storage bags combined only contain ninety-seven low-grade spirit stones, not even a hundred.

There was a pile of worn-out and damaged talismans and instruments, bottles and jars of unknown origin, messy books and jade slips, and miscellaneous gold and silver items.

After sorting out some useful talismans and magical instruments, Chen Beiwu looked at the labels on the pills.

Well, it was just a bunch of scribbles and he didn’t recognize a single word.

But it doesn’t matter. Even if Chen Beiwu could read, he would not take these pills of unknown origin.

He was not an alchemist, so he could neither tell the specific toxicity of these pills nor whether they had been poisoned.

Unless there are particularly precious elixirs in these bottles and jars that are worth him catching guinea pigs for experiments.

"There's really no time to rush. I still need to learn to read first." Chen Beiwu shook his head and took out the jade slip to study.

……

Ride the wind on the steep mountain walls and glide in the swirling clouds.

Relying on his spiritual sense, Chen Beiwu crossed one mountain after another. When he came to a steep cliff, he stopped and showed a hint of surprise on his face.

Just because he discovered a rare magical medicine called Stone Grass.

Stone Grass is a second-level spiritual medicine that grows in the cracks of rocks. Its roots are in the shape of translucent crystal clusters, and its leaves are only the size of copper coins.

The front of the leaves glows the color of bronze, while the back is covered with lotus-like white veins, making them easy to identify. For Foundation Establishment cultivators, wearing them can strengthen their foundation, strengthen their meridians, and improve the efficiency of their body tempering.

If a Qigong practitioner eats it, he may become too weak to be replenished, resulting in partial petrification of the meridians and dantian.

In addition, this magical medicine is very rare because it is good at concealing its scent. After it matures, it will crack and disappear on its own without any strange signs or fragrance.

The price on the official website of the Immortal Alliance is even higher than that of the Blood-Faced Vine, and it can be sold at a high price of at least six hundred low-grade spirit stones.

Chen Beiwu didn't expect that he was so lucky that he could encounter a second-level spiritual medicine on the way.

Back then, he had been sightseeing in Zi Luo Mountain of the Immortal Alliance for seven days and seven nights but couldn't find a single second-level spiritual medicine. All the second-level spiritual medicines he could find were in the nature reserve designated by the Immortal Alliance.

Those elixirs that can only be seen but not touched are rarely touched by anyone.

Any monk who dares to sneak up to collect herbs will be severely punished. In the end, he will have to wear a silver bracelet and enjoy the mining life in the mine.

"This little girl is lucky to have found such a magical herb."

Following Chen Beiwu's gaze, a girl in linen clothes and straw sandals was standing on the inky rock wall.

She carried a bamboo basket on her back and held a medicine shovel in her hand. She carefully knocked on the cracks in the rocks, making crisp sounds.

It was because of the existence of this herbal-collecting girl that Chen Beiwu was able to discover the stone grass hidden in the cracks of the rocks and unable to be detected by spiritual sense.

But fortune and misfortune go hand in hand, and a mere mountain girl cannot afford such a magical herb!

"This herb is very beautiful, very similar to the Green Crystal Herb described in the book. Selling it will definitely cover my father's medical expenses."

Thinking of this, the herbalist girl took a deep breath and increased the speed of hitting the rocks with her hands.

Because it was too dangerous to go to the deserted mountain at night, she needed to finish collecting herbs and go down the mountain before the hour of You.

"Fizz!"

At this moment, a strange noise coming from the right made the girl's heart chill.

She turned her head and saw a strange snake with a triangular head and copper eyes spitting out its tongue as a warning.

"Five red snakes!" The girl's face suddenly turned ugly.

The Five Red Snake is a famous poisonous snake in the wild mountains. Its venom is so strong that it is difficult to cure with medicine.

What is Wu Chi? As the name suggests, a bite by this venomous snake causes a surge of blood and qi, causing the face to turn crimson red, and eventually leading to death from bleeding from all five orifices.

"I finally found a unique herb. I can't run away!"

Mo Li gritted his teeth, forced himself to suppress the fear in his heart, and took out a bag of powder from his arms with his right hand.

Since she dared to go up the mountain alone to collect herbs, she must have some means of self-protection, otherwise she would have been targeted by the ruffians in the village long ago.

Seeing that Mo Li was reluctant to retreat, the five red snakes' eyes flashed with ferocity, and they hissed, their bodies transforming into a streak of red light that swept through the air.

"Get out of my way!"

Mo Li threw the powder with all his strength, and it just collided with the oncoming snake's kiss.

"Still not working?"

Seeing that the snake's kiss was still going strong, Mo Li's eyes showed a hint of despair.

She closed her eyes nervously, quietly waiting for death to come.

'Strange, why doesn't it hurt at all?'

Mo Li opened her eyes cautiously, and what she saw was not the smelly five red snakes, but a strange face that was so beautiful that it was hard to describe in words, which made her completely stunned.
