Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 403 The Treacherous Cultivator
"Zhuo Mu...is he dead?"

"It's actually a living pill refinement..."

Several cultivators from the Heavenly Cry Realm had drastic changes in expression.

They never expected this outcome.

Zhuo Mu not only failed to kill his opponent, but also perished himself!
It should be noted that when a cultivator in a grotto-heaven loses their power, the teleportation protection mechanism will be triggered.

Zhuo Mu was confident in hunting down his opponent because his rare beast supernatural ability would continue to worsen and could not be cured. Even if the carp in its dying state was teleported back, it would still die quickly below the arena as long as the cultivators of Tianyuan Realm did not have a cure.

The grotto is only responsible for teleporting people away, not for providing medical treatment.

Zhuo Mu didn't believe that a group of Nascent Soul cultivators would possess a healing item of celestial quality, let alone be willing to use it to heal a pet beast.

Therefore, Zhuo Mu's plan was not to finish off his opponent in the ring.

However, the result was beyond Tianming's expectations. Zhuo Mu's opponent not only possessed the Healing Immortal Flame, but also, despite the protective mechanism of the cave, killed Zhuo Mu on the arena. This scene was truly chilling.

Let alone the cultivators of the Heavenly Cry Realm, even their own people would shrink in shock upon seeing Long Li's behavior.

Especially Master Du Zao, who suddenly became thirsty and began to refine pills... a definite demonic alchemy technique.

Moreover, the fact that it was able to refine a Nascent Soul beast so quickly was not only due to the power of the immortal fire, but also inseparable from the dragon carp's own mastery of fire control.

He stared at Lin Jing in horror.

The first one understood why Long Li was able to kill his opponent in the arena.

Because the divine power of the Myriad Fires Cauldron is not directly aimed at killing the opponent.

Inside the alchemy furnace, the rare beast was far from being severely injured and on the verge of death.

Just like "boiling a frog in lukewarm water," the "moment of elixir completion" is only a moment, equivalent to a certain instant when the alchemy technique unleashes extremely powerful force, instantly killing the opponent and making it difficult for the protective mechanism of the cave to react.

"Zhuo Mu... is really dead..."

At this moment, several cultivators from the Heavenly Cry Realm still couldn't accept that Zhuo Mu, no matter what, was one of the top-ranked Nascent Soul disciples of the Immortal Palace.

It was also a "pet" that a very important person liked very much.

And so, he died in the battle of the cave...

He died at the hands of one of the beasts belonging to a beast-taming cultivator, utterly powerless to resist.

"There's no time to mourn for Zhuo Mu. Tianyuan Realm has already gained four points. If they gain another three points, we're finished."

"The next battle is crucial. Senior Sister Tianlian, Senior Brother Lü, what should we do?"

The female cultivator of the Sound Path looked nervous; she didn't want to fall from her cultivation level.

“Tianyuan Realm…” Yuan Liu, who was still lying on the ground recovering from his injuries, looked terrified. This Tianyuan Realm was stronger than he had imagined. This was bad.

“There’s no other way.” Lu Wangshu, whose body was in the Taiyin form, looked at the arena and said, “Let’s cancel the original order. I’ll go next.”

"Only by winning this match can Tianming Realm have any hope of turning defeat into victory."

"Otherwise, if I lose this game, it will be meaningless even if I win the final four points."

“But…” Yue’e said, “Even if Senior Brother Lü wins 3 points, it will only be 4 to 5. What if, what if in the final 4-point battle, Senior Sister Tianlian…”

Lu Wangshu looked at Tianlian, who was deep in thought, and said, "Don't worry, the information you exposed to the enemy before was only a very superficial part."

"If you push her too far, even I wouldn't want to be her enemy."

"Junior Sister Tianlian, if I win these 3 points, can you guarantee that you can defeat the opponent with 4 points, no matter how strong or weak they are? Even if you have to use that move?"

"After all, if it were up to you to compete for this, given your personality, you might not be willing to place your hopes for ultimate victory on me and instead choose to use that move at a great cost."

Tian Lian said helplessly, "Indeed, I am not the kind of person who likes to put the burden of the outcome on others, but if I were to be the one who decides the final result, and it really came to that, I would do anything to win."

"That's good." Lu Wangshu said, "What she revealed to her opponent just now was only part of her information. In reality, she can forcefully circulate her power and push the power of the Heavenly Destruction Divine Art to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. However, even with her Divine Compassion Body, she will not be able to completely avoid the Heavenly Tribulation at that time."

"The heavenly tribulation will still descend, but due to the special nature of her physique, the heavenly tribulation will subconsciously avoid her, thus causing indiscriminate destruction to the surroundings. Even she cannot control the heavenly tribulation at this time. This is her strongest trump card."

"The indiscriminate heavenly lightning, enough to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator, plus the brief peak Nascent Soul power, is definitely not something an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator can match."

"However, if she forcibly circulates her energy, she will suffer a backlash from the technique, inevitably causing her to fall in cultivation level. The consequences will be almost the same as those of the defeat of the Heavenly Cry Realm, or even worse."

“Yes.” Tian Lian nodded and said, “So I won’t go to such lengths unless it’s absolutely necessary. After all, if I take 3 points with this method and Senior Brother Lü loses 4 points, my situation will be worse than nothing. Although I find it hard to imagine anyone in the Nascent Soul stage who can defeat Senior Brother Lü.”

"Then you shall decide the final outcome. Don't disappoint me. If it really comes to the point where you have to exert yourself, I will make up for the loss of your cultivation level. As long as... the Heavenly Cry Realm can ultimately achieve victory."

Lu Wangshu, embodying the Taiyin and Taiyang Dao, walked towards the arena. Time was up, and he was now very curious about which cultivator from the Tianyuan Realm would be next.

Could it be that beast tamer?

According to the characteristics of the Beast Taming Technique, a Nascent Soul stage Beast Tamer can contract with 4 pet beasts.

The two opponents that were just sent out are no longer able to participate.

If the opponent has two equally strong opponents, then it will be a tough fight.

Or is it that after sending out two pet beasts, this beast-taming cultivator's combat strength is already reduced to one-tenth, making him unable to participate in the arena, and other cultivators will take his place?
While the Taiyin and Taiyang Dao Bodies were speculating, the Tianyuan Realm side also made a decision at the same time.

"Lin, my spot... do you want it?" The Sword Immortal Lingyue stroked the restless spirit sword, signaling it to calm down: "Although I am confident that I can win and defeat one of the remaining two, I am not confident that I can win easily. Even if I win, I will probably have to pay a heavy price."

“And I remember that the rules of the Cave Heaven are that the better you perform in battle, the better the range and quality of the Divine Body Pills you can choose, right?” Feng Ning smiled and looked at Lin Jing, saying, “Can you still crush these two? Otherwise, help me fight, and the rewards you get will be better.”

"If there's a suitable Divine Body Pill for me, I'll buy it at a certain cost. If there isn't one, I'll give it to you."

Lin Jing was taken aback. "You're the most cunning one. You're not a sword cultivator, you're a treacherous cultivator."
