Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 390 Two Sects of Advanced Study
"Buzz!"

My phone vibrated; a series of messages popped up.

With a thought, Chen Beiwu knew without opening the messages that they were congratulatory messages from sect cultivators, and replied to each one with his mind.

"By the way, when does Junior Brother Chen plan to take over the student affairs department?"

Su Miaozhen smiled and took the initiative to change the subject.

Otherwise, if we continue, it would be a minor matter if we angered the Three-Phase Xuanjiao, but it would be much worse if we antagonized Chen Beiwu.

Having finally found an interesting junior, she wanted to see just how far Chen Beiwu could go and whether he could stand out among the many Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the Immortal Sects.

"It will take some time for the student affairs department minister to be replaced. Senior Shen Lingxing has not officially stepped down as minister yet, and the relevant handover process may need to be carried out according to the regulations." Chen Beiwu didn't pay too much attention to it.

The position of Minister of Student Affairs sounds prestigious and prestigious, but compared with other departments of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect, such as the Beast Taming Department and the Teaching Department, it is simply insignificant.

Simply put, while both are ministers, the ministers of the student department are mostly chief disciples of immortal sects, Golden Core cultivators, and are mainly responsible for managing the affairs of the younger generation, namely sect students and immortal students.

The heads of the Beast Taming Department and the Teaching Department are elusive and powerful True Immortals, true high-ranking members of the Immortal Sect.

The two are worlds apart!
Of course, despite his inner complaints, Chen Beiwu didn't think the position of Minister of Student Affairs was useless.

On the contrary, if he wanted to build his own power and make the most of the Nine Breaths Breath Control Technique, the position of Minister of the Student Affairs Department would be a good starting point.

"Shen Lingxing has long since stopped attending to student affairs in order to attain the Nascent Soul True Monarch realm. If Junior Brother Chen is available, he can temporarily take over at any time. The sect would be happy to see this happen," Su Miao True Monarch advised.

Everyone has ambitions, especially Chen Beiwu, who comes from a declining family and possesses extraordinary talent; his ambitions are naturally extraordinary.

Putting everything else aside, just from the matter of opening the hall and imparting the Dharma, Su Miao Zhenjun could see that Chen Beiwu was trying to win people's hearts and cultivate his reputation with the secret method of forming the elixir.

But the position of student minister is just the beginning.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Chen Beiwu's primary task after assuming the position of Minister of Student Affairs will not be to install cronies or eliminate dissidents, but rather to establish credibility and prestige.

Only by doing this can Chen Beiwu, as the Minister of Student Affairs, leverage the Yuqing Immortal Sect's network, win over various factions within the sect, and build his own network of relationships, thus preparing for his future inclusion in the Yuqing Golden Register.

“There’s no rush.” Chen Beiwu shook his head slightly: “Compared to getting involved in the miscellaneous affairs of the student affairs department, cultivation level is the most important thing.”

After finishing his sentence, Chen Beiwu took the initiative to change the subject and asked Su Miaozhenjun how to forge the Heavenly End Scene.

This question happened to touch upon the area where Su Miao Zhenjun was most proficient, which aroused her interest in imparting knowledge and teaching.

"The essence of the shared experience lies in the interaction and joint exploration of the mysteries of heaven and earth, rather than in the division of master and servant, but simply in the merging of the spirit with heaven and earth."

"The spirit is the soul, the soul. The spirits of those who are in harmony can also communicate with each other..."

Chen Beiwu listened intently, a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes.

After the golden egg advanced to the level of a demon king, he felt that his comprehension had greatly increased, and now it seems that it was indeed not an illusion.

Su Miaozhenjun's words were like a ray of sunshine clearing away the clouds, allowing him to connect and integrate his previous insights from comprehending the two major landscape steles, evolving into entirely new understandings.

Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.

Watching Chen Beiwu ride away on the dragon, Su Miao Zhenjun remained silent.

It's easy to understand with just a touch, and clear once explained.

Among the disciples of the Immortal Sect she had taught before, Chen Beiwu was undoubtedly the most gifted.

'This child's momentum is already established; even if True Monarch Breaking the Law wanted to stop him, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.' True Monarch Su Miao sighed, and his figure quietly disappeared.

Although the goal of mating was not achieved this time, the opportunity to deepen the relationship with Chen Beiwu made it all worthwhile.

……

Evening, Taiyuan Heaven.

As an important place for cultivators of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect to comprehend the immortal techniques of landscapes, this place has never lacked renowned geniuses.

However, the two young cultivators standing in front of the Chaos Primordial Dao Integration Stele today greatly surprised the passing Jade Purity prodigies, causing them to stop and pause, their faces showing awe.

These two men possessed extraordinary bearing. One was handsome with distinct features, appearing to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He wore a dark, fitted Taoist robe with subtle patterns, and a silver belt about the width of a palm around his waist, from which hung an ancient longsword.

Without a doubt, this person, wearing the Daoist robe of the Sword Abyss Immortal Sect, is undoubtedly a peerless sword cultivator who is unparalleled in the world to appear in the Taiyuan Heaven Realm!

As for the other person, she appeared to be in her early twenties, with a beautiful face and snow-white skin. She wore a flowing cloud-sleeved Taoist dress, and when she walked, clouds accompanied her, making her seem like an ethereal fairy. She gave people a sense of immortality that seemed close at hand but was actually unattainable, and her cultivation was obviously unfathomable.

'Good heavens, these two are already True Monarchs, how come they're appearing in the Taiyuan Heavenly Realm!'

Yi Yuqing, the prodigy, narrowed his eyes in surprise.

Upon seeing this, the familiar cultivators nearby immediately began communicating telepathically: 'Senior Brother Qian, do you know these two?'

'Of course, these two are very famous and important figures!'

Upon hearing this, all the passing cultivators were startled.

Oh! How big is it?

'You could probably crush me with one hand.'

The young prodigy from Yuqing gave a wry smile and introduced himself: "The cultivator in the black Daoist robe is Mo Yuan, the newly promoted Nascent Soul True Monarch of the Sword Abyss Immortal Sect, whose title is True Monarch of Karma Severing. It is said that he cultivates the *Mysterious Pivot Karma Severing Cause and Effect Sword Record*."

'This sword manual does not cultivate magical power or divine sense, nor does it cultivate supernatural abilities or transformations. It focuses solely on the sword path of causality and transformation, which is also an unparalleled killing sword path. Very few of the geniuses of the Sword Abyss Immortal Sect have been able to cultivate it to perfection. True Monarch Zhanye is the first one in the last five hundred years.'

'So it was him!' A Yuqing cultivator looked at Mo Yuan with surprise and astonishment.

"Senior Brother Qian, what about the other one?" another cultivator asked curiously via telepathy.

'The other one is even more remarkable. He is Mu Yunzhi, the newly promoted Nascent Soul True Monarch of the Jade Floss Immortal Sect, whose honorific title is Myriad Threads True Monarch.'

He cultivates the supreme heavenly scripture of the Jade Floss Immortal Sect, the *Ice Soul Heavenly Net Moral True Scripture*, and has perfected its techniques. With a mere thought, he can condense the Ice Soul Heavenly Net Silk with the most gentle yet firm and cold energy, said to be able to suppress and kill a Nascent Soul True Monarch with a flick of his finger.

'hiss! '

Some cultivators were shaken and looked at Mu Yunzhi with respect.

To kill a Nascent Soul True Monarch with a flick of the finger? How heroic, how powerful!

Even if this trip to Taiyuan Heavenly Realm yields nothing, being able to witness such a powerful figure in person makes the journey worthwhile.

Noticing the gazes of the surrounding cultivators, Mo Yuan and Mu Yunzhi remained calm and quietly waited in line, clearly accustomed to being watched and observed by many cultivators.

"tread!"

"tread!"

"tread!"

Just then, footsteps sounded, and a figure in white walked over unhurriedly.

The pupils of the Jade Purity cultivators present contracted slightly as they recognized the newcomer. Their expressions turned solemn, and they all bowed in unison.

"Meet Chief Senior Brother!"

Everyone said in unison.

The voice wasn't loud, but it made both Mo Yuan and Mu Yunzhi raise their eyes and look in the direction of the footsteps.

'What a handsome and refined gentleman in this turbid world!' Mu Yunzhi's beautiful eyes remained unchanged, but she was slightly taken aback.

Before coming to the Jade Purity Immortal Sect for further study, she had inquired about many things and knew that the current chief of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect was named Chen Beiwu.

This person is quite extraordinary. Although he comes from a declining family with limited resources, he has managed to stand out among the many talented second-generation members of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect. His temperament, talent, comprehension, and foundation are all top-notch. Mu Yunzhi had long anticipated this.

But seeing Chen Beiwu in person today and sensing his aura with her divine sense, Mu Yunzhi couldn't help but feel surprised.

Interesting, a mere Golden Core cultivator can actually make a Nascent Soul True Monarch like her feel threatened!
It should be noted that although she is a newly promoted True Monarch of the Jade Floss Immortal Sect, she is not a Nascent Soul True Monarch like True Monarch Moon Cloud who has just broken through. Instead, she is a powerful expert who has finished guarding her Yellow Court and practicing the fetal breathing meditation, and is able to exert her full strength. She is only half a step away from entering the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Indeed, seeing is believing, and meeting is even better than hearing about.

Mu Yunzhi suddenly lost interest in the Chaos Primordial Dao Integration Stele and looked at Chen Beiwu with great interest.

'This person is quite strange; he seems both weak and strong!'

Mo Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and for the first time, his emotions fluctuated.

Those who can attain the Nascent Soul True Monarch are all top-tier geniuses among the thirteen immortal sects, and naturally they will not fear the name of the Primordial Golden Core.

On the contrary, a fighting spirit even welled up in Mo Yuan's heart.

Unfortunately, even the strongest Golden Core cultivator is still just a Golden Core cultivator. If he, at the Nascent Soul True Monarch level, were to use his strength to bully the weak and challenge them to a duel, it would truly violate his own sword heart.

Upon realizing this, Mo Yuan's sword flashed, and he withdrew his gaze, no longer looking at Chen Beiwu.

"No need for such formalities, everyone," Chen Beiwu said, waving his hand slightly.

The top-ranked Jade Void Ranking and the top-ranked Jade Purity Ranking are indeed of different statuses.

When he last entered the Taiyuan Heavenly Realm, few people greeted him, while many others either disapproved or kept their distance.

But this time, wherever he went, the sect cultivators all bowed in respect.

Even a powerful Nascent Soul True Monarch would address him as a junior brother and would never presume to be superior.

"Senior Brother, please go first."

A cultivator standing at the front of the line voluntarily bowed to Chen Beiwu, giving up his place.

This is neither fear nor flattery, but rather a respect for the younger generation of the sect as role models.

The sect's chief disciple is the sect's future powerhouse and should rightfully enjoy priority.

In an instant, the crowd parted, revealing a path.

"Thank you, junior brother." Chen Beiwu did not feign politeness in declining.

Having received instruction from Su Miaozhenjun on the key points for forging the Heavenly End Scene, Chen Beiwu was eager to comprehend the Chaos Primordial Dao-Merging Stele and the Qiongqi Crossing the Other Shore Stele.

'Has the atmosphere of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect become like this?' Mo Yuan frowned slightly, quite dissatisfied.

In the Sword Abyss Immortal Sect, even if the sect's chief wants to change positions, he must still show respect to the Nascent Soul True Monarch.

If the Taiyuan Heavenly Realm were to follow the order of arrival, that would be one thing. However, although Chen Beiwu is the chief of the Immortal Sect, how could a mere Golden Core cultivator be so ignorant of etiquette as to cut in line and preempt a Nascent Soul True Monarch?

'Wasn't it said that Chen Beiwu was unconventional and didn't win the hearts of the proud and arrogant Yuqing?'

Mu Yunzhi also felt strange, but her gaze towards Chen Beiwu carried a hint of admiration.

As the saying goes, "A woman three years older than you is like holding a gold brick; a woman three hundred years older than you is like receiving a magic pill."

It's a pity she's 323 years older than Chen Beiwu, otherwise we could get closer and she could find a good match.

"Chief Chen."

Mu Yunzhi nodded slightly and took the initiative to introduce herself: "Mu Yunzhi, True Monarch of Jade Floss Immortal Sect, advanced student of Jade Purity Immortal Sect."

"Mo Yuan, a student of the Sword Abyss Immortal Sect," Mo Yuan said succinctly.

"So it's you two True Lords in person. I've heard so much about you." Chen Beiwu replied calmly.

The Five Great Grotto-Heavens and the Thirteen Immortal Sects frequently exchanged ideas and regularly sent disciples to each other for further study.

If he can obtain the qualification to study in Taiyin Cave Heaven, then Mo Yuan and Mu Yunzhi will naturally also have the opportunity to obtain the study resources of Yuqing Immortal Sect.

After all, as one of the three upper immortal sects, the Jade Purity Immortal Sect has a profound foundation and a long history. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the immortal sect that the geniuses of the ten major immortal sects dream of for further study.

As for the advanced training qualifications of the five great grotto heavens, they are mostly exchanged within the grotto heavens. Even if the advanced training quotas are occasionally passed on to the immortal sects, they are mostly obtained by the top three immortal sects and have no chance with the geniuses of the ten great immortal sects.

"I heard you've met the Holy Maiden of the Moon?"

Since she was just waiting in line and had nothing better to do, Mu Yunzhi subconsciously started a conversation.

"If mirror images count, then I have indeed seen them," Chen Beiwu said with a slight smile.

It must be said that Mo Yuan and Mu Yunzhi are indeed extraordinary.

Both of them were surrounded by auspicious red dragons, especially the latter, whose aura was faintly showing signs of purple. He might be able to break through the True Monarch barrier and advance to the Divine Transformation True Venerable in the future, but the hope was extremely slim.

"Once you enter the Taiyuan Heavenly Realm, you should queue up to comprehend the landscapes. The order should be determined by the order of arrival or by seniority and virtue, rather than by rank."

The moment Mo Yuan opened his mouth, the atmosphere instantly plummeted to freezing point.

The Jade Purity prodigy, who had given up his spot, looked at Mo Yuan with dissatisfaction.

How rude!

Although Mo Yuan was a cultivator from the Jade Purity Immortal Sect, he was actually a Nascent Soul True Lord from the Sword Abyss Immortal Sect.

His entry into the Taiyuan Heavenly Realm was already a tremendous gift and grace from the sect, yet the other party dared to spout nonsense here, trying to use the pretext of being a senior or virtuous leader to suppress the sect's chief disciple.

Mu Yunzhi pursed her lips, glanced at Mo Yuan, and was also speechless.

She had long heard that Mo Yuan was rigid in his ways, but she never expected him to be this rigid.

Both sides were willing to give and take, so why should Mo Yuan, an outsider, interfere?

"True Lord Mo, in the order of seniority and virtuousness, what is the former and what is the latter?" Chen Beiwu asked with great interest.

He didn't sense any malice from Mo Yuan, either because the other party was good at hiding it, or because that was his personality—following his heart rather than acting intentionally.

"Naturally, the elder comes first, and the wise come later."

Mo Yuan said calmly, "Heaven and earth have their constant order, and the four seasons have their own sequence. The elder comes first, which is to respect the timing of heaven and earth."

"The Tao has no beginning and no end, no age and no youth, it is the ultimate..." Chen Beiwu denied, "Therefore, the elder is not necessarily the wise, or may be bound by form and form, or may be deluded by worldly dust, while the wise can be elders, and their virtue can match that of Heaven and Earth, so why can't I be ahead?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Yuan gave Chen Beiwu a deep look.

"Been taught a lesson."

Although he did not completely agree with Chen Beiwu's words, he understood that the statement that "a virtuous person can be a leader" was actually correct, and there was no need to continue arguing about it.

He was better at persuading others with a sword than with words.

In addition, the confidence in Chen Beiwu's words also made him feel a little admiring.

Since the other party believes that the virtuous come first and the elders come second, compares himself to the virtuous, thinks that no cultivator present can compare to him, and regards the Nascent Soul True Monarch as nothing, such a spirit is indeed admirable, and he is qualified to take the seat first.

It's a pity that his cultivation level is a little lacking, so he can't engage in magical duels, discussions, or exchanges of knowledge.

Meanwhile, some Yuqing cultivators were puzzled and surprised to see Mo Yuan Zhenjun take the initiative to start a conversation and then back down in front of Chen Beiwu.

what's the situation?
Could it be that True Monarch Zhanye deliberately provoked trouble to ascertain the chief's cultivation foundation? Otherwise, why would he have backed down after just a few words?
