Starting from the two realms, cultivating immortality by taming beasts

Chapter 12 The Ten Directions of Chaos

At this moment, a bright green venomous snake was coiled near Chen Beiwu's collarbone.

The snake was about three feet long, its entire body covered with fine scales that shimmered with an emerald green luster, as if it were cast from jade.

Its head is flat and triangular, its eyes are like crystal amber, and as it flicks its tongue, wisps of spiritual energy from heaven and earth gather around it.

[Variety]: Emerald Scale (commonly known as Three-Step Fall)

[Attributes]: Wood, Poison

[Bloodline]: Tier 1, Low Grade (Exotic Beast)

[Cultivation Level]: More than ten years

[Talent]: Emerald Illusionary Poison (The snake's fangs contain a potent poison that can erode the mana of cultivators below the late Qi Refining stage, causing fatal hallucinations.)

Upon recognizing the venomous snake, Chen Beiwu held his breath, suppressing his heartbeat to its slowest point, and then condensed a barely perceptible wisp of magical power at his fingertips.

Sensing the fluctuations in spiritual energy, the emerald green venomous snake's vertical pupils contracted, its body instinctively tightened, and it raised its head, slowly looking in the direction of Chen Beiwu's fingertip.

This is the prelude to Azure Scale's attack, a warning sign that it is in danger and ready to launch a strike at any moment.

Feeling the cold touch on his skin, Chen Beiwu became even calmer and flicked his fingertips lightly.

"Bang!"

The grass in the distance collapsed with a crash, and Bi Cui Lin's attention quickly turned to the place where the spiritual energy was disordered.

It's now!

Chen Beiwu seized the opportunity, his internal magic power instantly connecting with the talisman he carried with him, while his right hand, enhanced by the magic power, grabbed at the vital spot of the jade scale with extreme speed and precision.

"Snap!"

Lifting the foul-smelling, stiff snake's body, Chen Beiwu quickly stood up.

"Strange, wasn't the Emerald Scaled beast supposed to be extinct?"

Chen Beiwu carefully looked around and found that the ancient trees around him had intertwined roots and trunks that were about ten people's arms thick. They were all ancient trees recorded in books, thousands of years old, and the air was filled with the fragrance of unknown wildflowers.

"Have I time-traveled again?"

Chen Beiwu stared blankly at the scene before him, carefully feeling the icy touch coming from his fingertips.

"roar!"

Just then, a deafening roar came from the distant mountains, so loud that it made the dew on the treetops fall in a flurry.

"Oh no, this is spiritual vibration!" Chen Beiwu's expression changed, and he immediately tried to escape.

Ordinary second-tier spirit beasts cannot produce the trembling spiritual sound; generally, only lesser demons with over fifty years of cultivation can produce it.

Don't be fooled by the fact that in ancient times, lesser demons were insignificant, barely mentioned in novels or biographies, and not even worthy of being considered low-class characters.

However, if we consider the realms in the real world, a second-realm demon is equivalent to a Foundation Establishment cultivator, far beyond what Chen Beiwu, a mere Qi Refining cultivator, could withstand.

"Buzz!"

As if in response to his thoughts, a stream of obscure information suddenly flooded into Chen Beiwu's mind.

[Supernatural Power]: Ten Directions of Chaos. Using the Nine Breaths Breathing Supernatural Power as a starting point, one can freely traverse the Ten Directions of Chaos Gate with the help of the power initially awakened in the Chaotic Land, and leave special spatial anchor points between heaven and earth.

"roar!"

Upon noticing the approaching roar of a beast, Chen Beiwu immediately placed his right hand on his heart and used the Nine Breaths Qi Absorption Technique to mobilize the power of the Chaos Land, actively drawing upon the ten directions of the Chaos Gate.

The next instant, a dazzling golden light enveloped Chen Beiwu's entire body, then pierced through the void and completely disappeared from this world, leaving not a trace of his presence.

Shortly after Chen Beiwu left, lightning exploded, and a colossal beast with a head resembling a lion or tiger, a shoulder height of two zhang, and a body covered in deep purple scales suddenly appeared.

Its eyes were like copper bells, and a spiral horn grew on its forehead, with silver-white lightning patterns wrapped around the tip of the horn, bursting out with rampant lightning.

Some lightning bolts struck the ground, burning out charred craters, while others struck its exposed fangs, forming layers of purplish-gold bone spikes that exuded a fierce aura.

This beast is the king of this mountain range, a second-tier spirit beast, the Azure Thunder Tiger, with a cultivation level of two hundred and eighty-eight years.

Cang Lei Hu sniffed slightly, his gaze falling on the crushed weeds on the ground, his vertical pupils revealing a hint of doubt.

……

When the dazzling golden light disappeared, Chen Beiwu found himself back in his home cultivation room.

The icy green scales he held in his right hand seemed to be a reminder that everything that had happened before was not an illusion.

With the help of the Gate of Chaos, he actually traveled to a mysterious world and killed a Jade Scale.

"Phew, calm down!" Chen Beiwu exhaled a breath of stale air, suppressing the shock and surprise in his heart.

He usually enjoys reading miscellaneous books like "100,000 Strange Beasts," otherwise he wouldn't have been able to recognize Bi Cuilin's identity so quickly.

The Emerald Scale is a mythical beast from the Middle Ages. It has extremely high requirements for its habitat and generally only appears in places where spiritual energy is abundant and spiritual herbs are plentiful. It cannot be artificially raised and is a mythical snake that has long been extinct since the Immortal Alliance era, existing only in books.

Its blood can enhance the spiritual energy sensitivity of cultivators and beasts, and its skin and scales can be used in medicine.

However, the most precious item is the snake gallbladder, which can serve as a superior substitute for spirit stones to help cultivators improve their Qi cultivation speed. Its value is immeasurable.

Based on the above information, coupled with the unimaginably rich purity of spiritual energy in that other world, Chen Beiwu could roughly confirm one thing.

On the other side of the Gate of Chaos in the Ten Directions may be a new world that the Immortal Alliance has not yet discovered, or it may be a blessed land within the Immortal Alliance's territory that has not yet been born, possessing abundant resources for cultivation.

"Being able to freely traverse time and space under the shroud of the Immortal Alliance's formation, it seems I underestimated the power of the Nine Breaths Chaos!" Chen Beiwu exclaimed, while also making various guesses in his mind.

The colorful adventure he triggered with his supernatural powers might just happen tonight at the Gate of Chaos.

If that's the case, the strength of the seven-colored fortune is probably far beyond his imagination.

The next morning, Chen Beiwu left for class as usual, watched by Tie Dan.

From his appearance, you would never guess that Chen Beiwu had stayed up all night.

"That's strange, why are you here so early today? You usually arrive right on time!" Xu Lingling was quite surprised.

Chen Beiwu glanced at her, too lazy to pay her any attention, and continued to sort through the information in his mind. This was a habit he had developed in his previous life as a test-taker in a small town.

Although he only traversed it once, through his exploration and summarization last night, he roughly sorted out some information about the Ten Directions Chaos Gate.

First, the passage of time in the other world should be roughly the same as that in the Immortal Alliance. For every minute that he spends there, about one minute will also pass in the Immortal Alliance.

Second, there is a one to two breaths of pre-cast delay when mobilizing the Ten Directions Chaos Gate. If he is disturbed during the mobilization, the teleportation will be interrupted.

Therefore, he should find a safe location before each teleportation, or complete the pre-cast animation in advance and complete the teleportation instantly at the crucial moment.

Third, the spiritual energy concentration in this other world is ten times higher than that of a mid-grade first-level cultivation room, and is almost equivalent to a low-grade second-level spiritual vein, which can fully meet his cultivation needs.

However, one thing needs special attention: the more abundant the spiritual energy, the more likely a powerful monster will be born.

If he wants to explore the other world, he must be well prepared, otherwise he may die in the other world and become food for monsters.
