Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 398 Tianyuan VS Tianming
"It's rare for cultivators from both realms to have this opportunity to meet. Fellow Daoist, before the competition, would you like to exchange some information?"

Tianming Yue'e continued to speak with a smile, looking at Bai Yuran and saying, "Anyway, there's no time limit for the competition, so why not make good use of it?"

Bai Yuran gently shook her head: "If you really want to exchange intelligence and news, that's fine, but if I'm not mistaken, you should be cultivating the 'Sound Dao Technique 'Nine Strategies of Immortal Sound', right? One of the strategies is that as long as the enemy hears your voice, they have already been affected. Even in ordinary communication, your voice has already planted a 'sound curse' in my body. If you want, you can trigger an immortal sound vibration in my body at any time, causing me to go into a state of demonic possession."

"The more I hear your voice, the stronger the backlash will be..."

"Under these circumstances, I dare not communicate with you too much."

The female cultivator from Tianming Realm named Yue'e changed her expression, not expecting that this unassuming Tianyuan female cultivator could see through her cultivation technique.

"No, how could that be? The Nine Strategies of Immortal Music was created by a senior master of the Sound Dao in my Heavenly Cry Realm Immortal Palace after the lower realm lost contact with the immortal realm. It first appeared in the Heavenly Cry Realm. How could you know so much about it..."

Bai Yuran smiled slightly and said, "Even heavenly secrets can be revealed, let alone some of your little secrets. Your strength is not so abnormal that I cannot see through it."

She glanced at Lin Jing out of the corner of her eye. Seeing him again, she realized that even with her newly learned secret techniques, she couldn't see through him at all.

"So what?" Tianming Yue'e sneered. Even if this Tianyuan female cultivator knew the nature of her technique, it was already too late. In the next instant, endless immortal music reverberated in Bai Yuran's body, causing Bai Yuran's expression to change drastically. She spat out a mouthful of blood, and at the same time, her spiritual power fluctuated wildly, as if her entire body was about to explode.

At the same time, the female cultivator from Tianming Realm also changed her expression, her eyes becoming somewhat vacant.

While enduring the torment of the celestial music permeating her body, Bai Yuran said, "Unfortunately, the moment you made eye contact with me, I also used the 'Heavenly Secret Technique' on you. Not only do I know all your cultivation techniques, secret methods, and spells, but if I want, you will also reveal all the other secrets you know."

"Tell me the strength information of the other four people in your Heavenly Cry Realm."

Neither side expected the first battle to turn out this way. Another female cultivator from Tianming Realm looked solemn and said, "Judging from the situation, Tianyuan Realm should have lost the first battle, but it seems that the opponent's initial goal was not to win."

The cultivators of Tianming Realm frowned slightly, realizing that something was wrong.

"What is this?" Du Zao of the Tower of Babel exclaimed in surprise.

The Third Prince took a deep breath and said, "One of the Heavenly Secrets of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion is the ability to secretly investigate the cultivation techniques, spells, and other information of other cultivators. It can also force the other party to reveal some secrets by consuming a huge amount of mana. However, it also has a drawback: while consuming a lot of mana, it cannot cause any substantial damage to the enemy."

"Junior Sister Bai probably believes she's no match for her opponent, so she's trying to make her defeat more meaningful through this method. If we could know the information about the other four people from the Heavenly Cry Realm, then our chances of winning... would undoubtedly be greater." As the Third Prince explained, Lin Jing looked at Bai Yuran in surprise. This girl has improved quite a bit. However, he estimated that her Heavenly Secret Technique should be ineffective against him, since he had two layers of solid defense. One was the Heavenly Demon Divine Consciousness, which eternally permeated a certain range around him, isolating and blocking all mental and soul attacks.

Another one is the "magical elemental spirit: illusion mushroom" integrated into his body. With it, Lin Jing is a constantly changing, invisible body, making it difficult to see the real Lin Jing using ordinary methods.

Unless, of course, it's something that Lin Jing doesn't care about or care what others see.

For example, Lin Jing had just sensed that someone on the other side was trying to perceive the nature of their magical power. When he was spied on, Lin Jing was too lazy to stop or deceive, which allowed the other side to easily observe that the nature of his magical power was "Beast Taming True Essence".

In Lin Jing's view, this was not a particularly crucial piece of intelligence.

As for information like the Longevity Body, which Lin Jing has been practicing to avoid being exposed, it is absolutely impossible to detect it with ordinary detection methods. In order not to become a coveted prize in the eyes of the demon race prodigies of other cultivation worlds after entering the Origin Realm, Lin Jing has put in a lot of effort in this regard.

"Yes, sir..." At that moment, as Bai Yuran activated the Heavenly Secret Technique, the cultivator Yue'e from the Heavenly Cry Realm introduced the information of the other four people with a blank look in her eyes.

"Besides me, the other four are also cultivators from the Immortal Palace. The female cultivator among them is named Tian Lian, with a mid-Nascent Soul cultivation level. She is a true disciple of the Immortal Palace, possessing the Divine Compassion Body, a physique favored by the Heavenly Dao, which means she will not encounter Heavenly Tribulation in this life. Her cultivation technique is the 'Heavenly Annihilation Divine Art,' which can temporarily raise one's cultivation level, but one will have to suffer Heavenly Tribulation punishment afterward. Due to the special nature of the Divine Compassion Body, she can activate the 'Heavenly Annihilation Divine Art' without side effects, making her very powerful. Currently, her cultivation level can be temporarily raised to the mid-Nascent Soul stage..."

"He has a refined and scholarly appearance. His name is Yuan Liu. He is a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, a true disciple of the Immortal Palace, and possesses an innate Void Divine Body. This allows him to nullify any attack made of magic power and only suffer damage from pure physical attacks. His cultivation technique is the Great Void Technique, a spatial attribute technique that makes him proficient in spatial teleportation, spatial concealment, and spatial attack techniques."

"The short one is named Zhuo Mu. He is a rare beast in human form, a true disciple of the Immortal Palace, with the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, the peak of the Emperor-level bloodline, and the mastery of the Demon Emperor's true form. His bloodline is comparable to that of the Ancestor level. His rare beast divine power, 'Heavenly Peck,' is unparalleled in its offensive capabilities and can cause 'incurable and rapidly deteriorating injuries.' Healing techniques below the Immortal level cannot heal injuries caused by Heavenly Peck."

"The one who has been resting with his eyes closed... is the number one Nascent Soul cultivator in the Heavenly Cry Immortal Palace. His true form is an Innate Dao Body, an Innate Taiyin Body with two divine bodies, and his external form is a Sun Body. He cultivates the top-tier immortal technique 'Nine Yin Nine Yang,' and has developed two kinds of magical spirits. He also possesses the ability to control two top-grade magic treasures through his magical spirits. His strength has been evaluated by the deputy palace master of the Immortal Palace as, within the same realm, without his immortal body, no one can rival him."

With each piece of intelligence Bai Yuran obtained, her expression grew more serious.

Of the five prodigies who entered the Heavenly Realm that day, apart from the one he was facing, each of them was incredibly strong.

"This is a bit troublesome." The Tianming Realm side shook their heads helplessly. Their intelligence had been exposed just like that; they had underestimated the Tianyuan Realm. However, despite this, they weren't overly worried. Fortunately, Yue'e didn't know much about their trump cards, only some superficial information...

"The Tianyuan Realm must have severed its immortal inheritance. Otherwise, it would be unreasonable for only one of the five to cultivate the immortal palace technique, and it's even a menial technique. A realm that has severed its immortal inheritance must have a much weaker strength. Although Bai Yuran's technique is strange, it doesn't seem to have had any substantial impact on Yue'e. By the time she wakes up, the outcome of the first match will be decided, and the advantage will be in our realm."
