Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 389 The Secret of the Ancient Demon
Noticing Chen Beiwu's unusual behavior, Jin Dan curiously raised its head.

In its view, while the newly awakened Great Evolution True Immortal was indeed powerful, it was not enough to surprise Chen Beiwu so much.

'You, you have a treasure mountain but don't even realize it.'

Chen Beiwu's spirit platform guarded a mirror that flashed with light. He suppressed the restlessness in his heart and sighed.

What kind of existence is the True Venerable of the Divine Transformation?
The power of words becoming law is truly supreme and profound!
Let alone achieving seven or eight tenths, the Great Evolution True Realm's ability to make words come true is enough to allow the Golden Egg to run rampant among the demon kings of the four realms.

So Chen Beiwu activated his divine sense and began to command the golden egg to test the upper and lower limits and flaws of the Great Evolution True Profound Path.

After a flurry of activity, Chen Beiwu opened his eyes, a hint of regret flashing across them.

In his view, the greatest use of the Great Evolution of Truth is not for fighting and killing, but for cultivating and comprehending the Dao.

The reason is simple: the illusory illusion released by the golden egg can change everything in an instant, allowing Chen Beiwu to spend hundreds of years in the illusion, while in reality it is only a fleeting moment.

The Great Evolution of Truth can also transform illusion into reality, allowing Chen Beiwu's actions in the illusion to become reality.

If the two are combined, wouldn't Chen Beiwu be able to rely on the Golden Egg Profound Path Technique to cultivate in the illusion for a hundred years, and then completely transform what he has learned in a hundred years into his own foundation?

Unfortunately, illusion is still illusion, and it always has some limitations. Chen Beiwu's conjectures could not all be realized.

After testing, Chen Beiwu discovered that he could indeed cultivate within the Golden Egg Illusion, but this cultivation method had flaws.

For example, although he could comprehend the two major landscape monuments within the illusion, he could comprehend his own divinely bestowed ultimate vision in one go.

However, this divinely bestowed final scene is merely a form; once one leaves the illusion, it will completely collapse, like a rootless duckweed.

As for using the Great Derivation Method to transform falsehoods into truth and solidify the foundation, that is also difficult to achieve.

The transformation of illusion into reality is not without cost. The stronger the life created by the golden egg, the more outrageous the alteration of reality, and the more terrifying the consumption of divine consciousness and magical power.

Simply put, if Chen Beiwu wanted to make the illusion come true and successfully comprehend the Heavenly Ending Scene, or to cultivate in the illusion and bring the magic power accumulated in the illusion into reality, these were things that the Golden Egg could not achieve by burning its divine soul magic power.

Of course, Chen Beiwu had anticipated this.

After all, the Great Evolution True Realm is only a fifth-order Yuan Technique, not a Creation Yuan Technique, or even the legendary Primordial Dao Technique. Its ability to temporarily transform reality is already terrifying enough.

'But that's enough.' Chen Beiwu's lips curled up slightly.

Although the reality altered by the Great Evolution True Realm is temporary and will gradually collapse with the passage of time and the interference of cultivators' magical power and divine sense, it is not unusable for cultivation and training. It's just that the time ratio between reality and illusion cannot be set too exaggeratedly.

After three days and three nights of research, Chen Beiwu finally tested the appropriate ratio, adjusting the passage of time from a hundred years in an instant to four hours as a day, that is, one day in reality and six days in the illusion.

In this way, Chen Beiwu's cultivation insights and spell learning within the illusionary realm can be preserved to the greatest extent.

"I feel like you shouldn't be called Golden Egg anymore, you should be called Golden Mountain!" Chen Beiwu reached out and ruffled Golden Egg's head, teasingly.

His cultivation efficiency far surpassed that of other geniuses of the same realm; one day of cultivation for him was equivalent to one month of arduous training for an ordinary Jade Purity genius.

If we also take into account the illusory enhancements from the Great Evolution True Realm, one day of his cultivation in the future would probably be equivalent to several months of arduous cultivation by an ordinary Jade Purity prodigy. It is not impossible for him to advance to the Nascent Soul True Monarch before the age of one hundred.

Golden Egg blinked its vertical eyes, revealing a look of disgust.

The name Jinshan (金山) doesn't sound as pleasant or appealing as Jindan (金蛋).

However, sensing Chen Beiwu's excitement, Jin Dan also opened his mouth and smiled: "Is it really that amazing?"

"In the future, if Tie Dan, Wu Qi Teng, and Qi Wei Zi Hu want to learn magic and immortal scriptures and become familiar with their innate profound abilities, they will all need to use the Great Evolution True Realm to quickly learn and master them. Isn't that amazing?" Chen Beiwu asked rhetorically.

Upon hearing this, Jin Dan's smile grew even brighter.

In this way, wouldn't it be able to firmly hold the top position under its master?

Seeing the golden egg's silly grin, Chen Beiwu shook his head and let his mind sink into the chaotic world.

People don't offend me, I don't offend people.

He has been in seclusion for ten years, and now is the perfect time to let Xiao Yu know what it means to be hated by heaven and earth!
……

On the other side, deep within the Feather Immortal Pavilion.

Practice in a quiet room.

Xiao Yu sat cross-legged within the Spirit Gathering Array, with a mysterious Fellowship Beast hidden in the shadows perched on his shoulder.

Suddenly, his expression changed, veins bulged on his forehead, his skin turned red, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered around him began to surge violently.

"Uh!"

Xiao Yu grunted, then opened his mouth and spat out a blood-red arrow of energy.

The arrow struck the ground, corroding a pit and making a hissing sound.

But Xiao Yu had no time to worry about that. He quickly took out a few pills and swallowed them, trying his best to suppress the restless magic power in his dantian and sea of ​​qi, so as to prevent the magic power from flowing backward and rushing to the purple mansion, causing him to suffer a qi deviation.

After a long while, Xiao Yu opened his eyes and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his right hand.

'Damn it, why is the Divine Stele suddenly acting strangely!' Xiao Yu exclaimed in surprise.

The ancient demonic sect has three methods: first, the righteous method of invoking gods; second, the reverse method of transforming gods; and third, the method of stealing gods on behalf of gods.

The Divine Stele is a special life treasure crafted by a giant of the ancient demonic sect using the method of stealing gods.

This treasure is extremely difficult to forge and is incredibly powerful. It requires the sacrifice of ten thousand cultivators and the casting of a statue of the 'True Origin Ancient God' to complete its forging.

However, it possesses immense power, capable of enhancing a cultivator's lifespan, foundation, comprehension, and Dao foundation, transforming insects into dragons, with effects far surpassing those of borrowing beasts to cultivate the Dao.

However, such a life-altering treasure has an unavoidable flaw: it requires human sacrifice to maintain the cultivator's own cultivation; otherwise, it will easily become demonic.

As the direct descendant of the Dao Venerable Immortal Clan, Xiao Yu's refined Divine Transcending Stele was extraordinary, its grade extremely close to the fifth rank.

It should be noted that in the ancient demonic sect's scriptures, the fifth-order Divine Transformation Stele is a treasure that can increase the probability of a Nascent Soul True Monarch proving the Dao Transformation True Venerable by 30%. The value of this near-fifth-order Divine Transformation Stele is therefore self-evident.

Xiao Yu took a deep breath, took the teleportation array to leave the Jade Purity Immortal Sect, and checked into the Xiao family's secret chamber. Then, his storage ring flickered with light, and a token appeared in his hand.

"Buzz!"

As magic power was poured in, the token trembled slightly, emitting a faint purple light, and condensing into a pair of blurry eyes.

"What's the matter?"

A hoarse voice slowly rose, its tone tinged with impatience.

Has Xiao Yu gone mad?

Although Yuqing City is not as heavily guarded as Yuqing Immortal Sect, it is home to several powerful cultivators who dared to contact him at this time.

Once discovered by the Immortal Alliance's cultivation giants, he is not afraid at all, hiding his true body outside the realm, but Xiao Yu will expose his true nature and be completely disgraced.

“Ninth Venerable One, I have a question,” Xiao Yu said coldly.

What doubt could possibly warrant such a risk?

"This concerns our lives and fortunes; how can we not take the risk?" Xiao Yu said in a deep voice, "Is there a problem with the Divine Transcending Tablet that the Venerable One bestowed upon us back then?"

"Hmph, absurd!" A mocking look appeared in those eyes: "Can't you, a dignified True Lord of Breaking the Law, tell whether there is a problem or not?"

"If that's the case, why did the Divine Stele suddenly change, almost causing me to suffer a qi deviation?"

Upon hearing this, his eyes fell silent, and an ancient, indifferent divine sense instantly descended upon Xiao Yu's sea of ​​consciousness.

Xiao Yu suppressed his discomfort and transmitted his thoughts telepathically, asking, "How are you?"

“No problem.” He glanced at Xiao Yu.

If he hadn't known Xiao Yu's personality well enough to know that Xiao Yu wouldn't fabricate something out of thin air, he would most likely have mistakenly thought that the latter was making something up out of thin air and using the excuse to make a fuss.

“Since the Nine Venerables cannot see the problem, then this True Monarch demands a fifth-order Divine Transcending Stele as compensation,” Xiao Yu suddenly said.

"Sure, what can you offer?" he asked calmly.

Immortality is as difficult as ascending to heaven! Even a powerful being like a Nascent Soul True Venerable, or even a being close to transcendence like a half-step Void Refinement cultivator, will eventually reach the end of their lifespan.

The Ancient Demonic Sect has been able to survive to this day despite the suppression by the Immortal Alliance, not only because of its strength, but also because of the existence of the Divine Transcending Stele.

“Chief of Yuqing, an unparalleled genius who forged the Primordial Golden Core, are the Nine Venerables interested?” Xiao Yu asked.

“Peerless geniuses are indeed rare, but the Jade Purity Immortal Sect is even more formidable. Let’s change the bargaining chip.” His eyes and tone were calm.

"What are the specific spatial coordinates and anchor points of the Cangyuan Realm?" Xiao Yu's eyes flickered slightly.

"not enough."

"How about a Primordial True Qi that possesses the characteristics of Primordial Ancestral Qi?" Xiao Yu revealed his trump card.

He paid a heavy price to obtain this true Qi, and even received an extremely foolish evaluation from his father.

"Interesting. How did you know?" Those eyes lit up with interest.

To know even such secrets and to deliberately test them twice, it seems the Tianyuan Xiao family has planted many spies within the Ancient Demonic Sect.

Xiao Yu did not answer, but waited quietly for his eyes to respond.

The fourth-order divine stele is completely different from the fifth-order divine stele.

The former is fraught with danger, and even with special secret methods to suppress it, there is still a chance of accidents, while the latter is a divine treasure with the authentic ancient god's ritual and incense.

Yes, that's right. Unlike life treasures, fifth-order divine tablets can already be called divine treasures. Not only are their powers stronger, but the risks they contain are also greatly reduced, and accidents are basically unlikely to occur.

However, those who refine divine treasures need more cultivators to worship the gods in order to maintain the rituals and incense offerings; otherwise, they will be stared at by the ancient gods, die, and become a part of the ancient gods.

"It's still not enough." His eyes remained unwavering in their refusal.

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Then so be it. Please do as you please, Ninth Venerable. This True Monarch is incapable of accomplishing anything, but he can easily ruin things."

He knew very well that the Ancient Demonic Sect had played a significant role behind the scenes in the failure of the previous generation of cultivators who had forged the Primordial Golden Core to attain the Divine Transformation True Venerable status.

"Very well, if you want the fifth-order God-level Stele, it's very simple. I can show you the way." His eyes paused slightly.

"What is it?" Xiao Yu raised an eyebrow.

"Cooperate with the Divine Cult to capture Chen Beiwu alive."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu frowned slightly and asked in return, "With that Primordial True Qi present, are the Nine Venerables afraid of not being able to capture Chen Beiwu?"

"I need not say more; you are surely aware of the strength of the Immortal Alliance's Refining Void Dao Venerable." His eyes were slightly closed, and his tone was solemn: "Unless Chen Beiwu leaves Tianyuan Star, anyone who dares to make a move will die!"

“No problem, I can create an opportunity for Chen Beiwu to leave Tianyuan Star, but we need to obtain the God-Transcending Stele first.” Xiao Yu readily agreed.

"can."

The satisfaction in his eyes vanished, and the secret room returned to deathly silence.

Xiao Yu's face turned slightly pale as he sensed the unusual movement of the Divine Stele.

'Damn. '

Without further hesitation, he directly used a secret technique to seal the Indian stele.

……

On the other side, there is Sanguangtan.

After using up his Calamity Qi Divine Power to help the Golden Egg master the Demon King's power, Chen Beiwu decisively left seclusion.

Sensing the commotion, Su Miao Zhenjun smiled and his escape light landed at the exit of the Three Lights Pool.

"Congratulations, Junior Brother Chen, on your advancement to the Fourth Realm Demon King." She offered her congratulations softly, taking the initiative to address him as Junior Brother.

The Mountain-Moving True Lord and the Thunder-Hunting True Lord exchanged a glance and stepped forward to offer their congratulations, their thoughts somewhat complicated.

Although Chen Beiwu had previously displayed unparalleled talent that surpassed his contemporaries and ranked first among the Immortal Sect's leaders, he ultimately failed to attain the Nascent Soul True Monarch status and was still considered a junior by many Nascent Soul True Monarchs in the sect.

But the situation is different now. Chen Beiwu's contracted beast has successfully advanced to the fourth realm of demon king, which means that he is no longer a peerless genius of the new generation of the sect, but a powerful figure with a Heavenly Gang Demon King following him at all times and one foot in the Nascent Soul True Monarch realm. It is reasonable for them to change their address to junior brother.

What puzzled the Nascent Soul True Monarchs present was that True Monarch Su Miao, who was always aloof and dignified, suddenly became so enthusiastic towards Chen Beiwu, lowering her status and being the first to change her address.

Could it be that she has taken a fancy to Chen Beiwu and wants to have an older man take advantage of a younger woman?
"Greetings, esteemed True Lords." Chen Beiwu bowed slightly, maintaining sufficient respect.

Even Nascent Soul True Monarchs have varying degrees of strength.

Compared to veteran Nascent Soul True Monarchs like Su Miao Zhenjun, Jin Dan's current strength is still far behind.

“We both belong to the Yuqing lineage, so there’s no need to be so formal. Just call me Senior Sister Su.” Su Miaozhenjun smiled gently.

"Senior Sister Su," Chen Beiwu said, changing his address accordingly.

Su Miao Zhenjun nodded slightly, her gaze inadvertently falling on the golden egg on Chen Beiwu's shoulder, and exclaimed, "Extraordinary spirit, natural majesty, the Three-Phase Xuan Jiao is indeed extraordinary after advancing to the Demon King."

'Good eye!'

Upon hearing this, the golden egg immediately opened its three pairs of dragon eyes, revealing a look of joy.

Seeing this, Chen Beiwu shook his head inwardly.

A few kind words are enough to make Golden Egg overjoyed; it seems Golden Egg still needs to work on its mindset.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the True Lords present realized there was no good show to watch and all dispersed. Only True Lord Su Miao did not leave, intending to invite Chen Beiwu for tea.

Chen Beiwu understood that Su Miaozhenjun had something to discuss, so he did not refuse.

……

In the tea room.

Even though Chen Beiwu had prepared himself mentally, he was still somewhat taken aback when he heard that Su Miaozhenjun hoped that the two families' beasts would interact and become closer.

'breeding?'

Chen Beiwu subconsciously turned his head to look at the golden egg in his arms.

Perhaps because Jin Dan's behavior was rather immature during their time together, he always thought of the latter as a child and never considered the matter of breeding.

But from another perspective, dragons are inherently lustful, and although the golden egg is a dragon, it may also have desires.

The next second, Jin Dan reacted, his dragon eyes widened, and a violent, cold, and vast dragon might erupted like a volcano, instantly enveloping the entire tea room.

Su Miaozhenjun, who was the first to be affected, frowned slightly. The Mirage Dragon on her wrist immediately opened its eyes, and its body was filled with shimmering light, completely dispelling the overwhelming dragon's might.

"I'm sorry, Senior Sister Su, I respect its opinion, but we should give up on the idea of ​​getting close to the Ginseng Beast."

Understanding the meaning of the golden egg, Chen Beiwu immediately refused.

Su Miaozhenjun was not surprised by this.

Among the dragon clan, female dragons are generally stronger than male dragons, and they are proud and disdainful of the opposite sex.

Chen Beiwu's contracted Three-Phase Black Dragon had just reached adulthood and had not yet entered its mating season, so it was normal for it to be dismissive of the matter of mating. However, its intense reaction seemed rather strange.

"I was a little too hasty, Senior Sister," Su Miaozhenjun said gently. "It's not too late to discuss this matter after it has reached adulthood and been around for a hundred years."

"Not even a hundred years, let alone a thousand years," the golden egg shook its head, its attitude resolute.

"That was my presumption," Su Miaozhenjun smiled.

Knowing the dragon's nature well, how could she possibly believe its naive words at this moment?

Unless this three-phase black dragon is an exceptional species among exceptional species, capable of abandoning its natural instincts.
