Taming Beasts and Cultivating Immortality from Two Realms

Chapter 70 Anecdotes
His black hair was untied and fell like a waterfall to his waist. His wide moon-white sleeves fluttered in the wind, revealing the jade gem flowing around his waist. What a noble and imposing young man!

Sensing that the other party's background was not simple and that he had a breath-suppressing instrument to restrain his energy, Chen Beiwu clasped his fists and bowed slightly: "Fellow Daoist, what can I do for you to stay?"

"Meeting is fate. My name is Shi Botao." The visitor smiled brightly and said familiarly, "Fellow Daoist, you are going to Yinxia Market to attend the second daughter of the Gu family's husband-recruiting meeting."

Hearing this, Chen Beiwu was startled, but he didn't show it on his face.

What is a son-in-law-recruiting conference?
He only knew that the immortal cultivation family that controlled Yinxiafang City was the famous Chiyuan Gu family in the Cangwu Mountains, and that they were hostile to the Yunhai Shen family.

The Chiyuan Gu family has two powerful foundation-building masters in charge. Among them, the ancestor of the Gu family is a cultivator in the late foundation-building stage. He is very powerful and is only two steps away from the golden elixir realm. The backer is the Jingyue Palace, one of the five major sects in the Diyan realm.

In order to compete for the resources of the big sect, the Chiyuan Gu family and the Yunhai Shen family have great conflicts and often fight with each other.

"Fellow Daoist, you have misunderstood." Chen Beiwu shook his head and denied it, "I am Chen Xiu, and I went to Yinxia Market only to buy what I need for cultivation."

Hearing this, Shi Botao felt relieved.

Fortunately, he had never seen a Qi-cultivating cultivator with such a handsome appearance and unique temperament!

If Chen Xiu also came here for the son-in-law recruitment meeting, then he really had no confidence in winning the heart of the second daughter of the Gu family.

"I see. I'm sorry for being so presumptuous." Shi Botao smiled friendly and invited Chen Beiwu to go to Yinxiafang Market together.

Chen Beiwu politely declined.

The other party's origins were unknown and his aura was obscure. He didn't want to travel with a strange cultivator.

Looking at the rainbow light as Shi Botao left on the shuttle, Chen Beiwu became curious.

What is so extraordinary about the second daughter of the Gu family that she could make a not-so-ordinary cultivator want to marry into her family?

Suppressing all distracting thoughts in his mind, Chen Beiwu checked the time and found a remote cave. He set up a small earthen array, a small maze array and a miniature air-gathering array, then set an anchor point and teleported back to the Immortal Alliance training room.

"Great, the payment has finally been settled."

Seeing the more than 3,100 spiritual yuan deposited into his mobile phone account, Chen Beiwu clicked on the official website of the Immortal Alliance and directly bought the Chaosheng Lingjia and Yinyujue that were added to the shopping cart. The price was that the account balance evaporated by 2,500 spiritual yuan.

After finishing his morning Taixuan Shouyi meditation, Chen Beiwu got up, went downstairs to have breakfast with his mother, and then went out to Fuxie in Yuankong County.

An hour later, Chen Beiwu walked out of the gate of Fuxie.

The certification of a first-level talisman master is relatively simple. He can pass the test by drawing three random first-level low-grade talismans on the spot. With his spiritual awareness and understanding, it is naturally a piece of cake for him.

Next, he only needs to wait for the information on the official website of the Immortal Alliance to be updated, and he can become a first-level talisman master registered with the Immortal Alliance.

Chen Beiwu did not stop and drove Yufeng to the Yuankong County Formation Association.

Unlike the bustling Fu Association, the Formation Master Association has very few staff members. Only a few employees sit at their workstations chatting and studying which spirit beast is more suitable for purchasing a contract. There are hardly any people to be seen.

Seeing Chen Beiwu appear, the female cultivator at the front desk's eyes lit up and stepped forward to greet him: "Sir, do you have any questions about formations that you would like to consult?"

"I'm here to take the formation master certification test." Chen Beiwu corrected.

Hearing this, the beautiful female cultivator was visibly stunned, and her expression became more respectful: "Please come this way."

At this moment, a ragged monk suddenly came in from the entrance of the formation association.

A male employee in the hall immediately stood up, took the lunch box and led the monk out of the formation association. "The formation association now also provides meals for outsiders?" Chen Beiwu asked curiously.

"No." The female cultivator's voice became deeper. "That little guy is actually a pitiful person. The one who just took him out was his formation teacher."

"Is there something wrong with his cultivation?" Chen Beiwu said thoughtfully.

He only needed to use his spiritual sense to scan and realize that the other party's mind seemed to be abnormal.

"Yes, sir." The female cultivator led the way while explaining, "Xu Xin was originally a genius in the art of formations from Shouhe Fourth Middle School. At the age of nineteen, he broke through the seventh level of Qi training and became a certified first-level formation master by the Formation Association."

Chen Beiwu was a little surprised: "But his aura is only at the fifth level of Qi training."

The female cultivator carefully glanced around and whispered, "That's because the fellow cultivator's beast attacked him. In mid-September, he contracted a spirit beast named Red Demon Lie at the Meteorite Dragon Palace."

Chen Beiwu paused and turned around in surprise.

The Red Evil Mane is a descendant of the gold-eating pig that mutated after devouring the fire marrow of the earth veins. It has a ferocious appearance, with red mane three meters long on its neck that flows like lava, and its body is covered with scales that have the texture of black lava. However, its personality is relatively docile among the fire-attributed spirit beasts.

Even if this kind of spiritual beast becomes rebellious and attacks its master, the contracted monk can easily suppress it with the same contract. How could it cause its cultivation to regress, its spiritual consciousness to be severely damaged, and its mental state to become abnormal?

"While Xu Xin was studying formations, his mother, who was helping him feed his fellow ginseng beasts, was knocked down and mauled to death by a ferocious red demon hyena. By the time Xu Xin realized something was wrong, his mother was already dead."

At this point, the front-desk female cultivator's eyes showed a trace of regret: "When Xu Xin found out, he was furious and used the Tongcan Seal to suppress Chi Sha Lie to death. As a result, the Tongcan Seal collapsed, and his cultivation level dropped to the fifth level of Qi training. His mental state also became abnormal."

"I see." Chen Beiwu nodded, a hint of suspicion rising in his heart. He asked, "Has the Immortal Alliance Law Enforcement Department intervened in this matter?"

The fact that monks sign a co-contract does not mean absolute safety. Every year, there are several cases in the Immortal Alliance where co-contracted beasts attack the contracted monks.

However, the Red Evil Hyena, a spiritual beast that looks ferocious but is actually gentle, is almost impossible to attack monks unless it is forced into a desperate situation.

There must be something hidden behind Xu Xin's incident.

"We have intervened, and the case is now under investigation." The female cultivator at the front desk stopped and pointed her left palm towards the office in front.

"Master Li Zhen is in charge of professional certification. Just push open the door and walk in."

After saying that, she winked, took out a business card and put it into Chen Beiwu's palm, then turned and left, leaving a word.

"If you have any questions about battle formations, you can ask me and we can learn from each other."

Chen Beiwu's face was very calm as he watched the graceful figure of the female cultivator at the front desk leave.

Nowadays, no matter whether a monk is male or female, as long as he or she is good-looking enough and has a pleasing temperament, there will always be people of the opposite sex who will rush up to chat with him or her like moths to a flame.

The way the female cultivator at the front desk approached him was relatively gentle, and he could accept it. It was unlike those schoolgirls from Shouhe No. 2 Middle School, each one more aggressive than the other.

When Chen Beiwu was a junior high school student at Shouhe No. 2 Middle School, a dozen or so female students had a big fight for him.

It was not until he was called to the office by his school teacher without knowing the truth that he realized how violent girls could be out of jealousy.

To a certain extent, the presence of Xu Ziqing and Xu Lingling helped Chen Beiwu escape from the constant peach blossom disputes in the school.
