Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 402

Chapter 402 All Demons Bow Down, A Secret Fortune in the Cultivation World (Seeking Subscriptions)

In that ancient cultivation world where good and evil were reversed

, any cultivator who showed mercy to mortals was considered an unforgivable demon.

“Although I am a demon, I think my master’s actions are right. A race so cruel to its own kind will inevitably perish sooner or later.” “

The Nine Great Immortal Sects have indeed perished. If they hadn’t, I wonder what the cultivation world would be like now…”

Hearing the Tiger King’s words, Li Chang’an couldn’t help but think.

If the Nine Great Immortal Sects still existed,

the current cultivation world would most likely be a chaotic mess of demons.

The Tiger King continued, “After my master betrayed the sect, he was frequently hunted down. My ancestor and that three-headed blue-faced lion were both seriously injured in the constant pursuit and eventually died before my master.” Before

their deaths,

both fourth-tier demon lords instructed their descendants to honor that senior as their master.

If that senior passed away, they would guard his tomb for generations to come.

Furthermore, they implored that senior to have them crafted into flesh and blood puppets so they could guard him after death.

“Our clan has followed our ancestors’ instructions, guarding our master’s tomb for generations.”

“But the Three-Headed Blue-Faced Lion clan has lost its original purpose, always wanting to enter our master’s tomb, simply because they suspect it contains a considerable amount of fourth-tier demon beast essence blood…”

Hearing this, Li Chang’an’s heart stirred slightly.

That senior, being a fourth-tier beast tamer, might indeed have fourth-tier demon beast essence blood among his treasures.

This level of demon beast essence blood is extremely rare in the current cultivation world.

He, at fourth-tier body refinement, could use it.

Of course,

demon beasts could use it too.

For a third-tier demon king, fourth-tier demon lord essence blood is a great tonic.

If they consume enough,

they too might embark on the path to fourth tier.

Li Chang’an asked, “Fellow Daoist Tiger, according to you, those three-headed blue-faced lions might block our path?”

“Don’t worry, Fellow Daoist Li, the strength of our two clans is roughly equal. I will hold them off for you, ensuring your safe acquisition of the inheritance.”

“Then I’ll trouble you, Fellow Daoist Tiger.”

Li Chang’an bowed in thanks.

Not long after,

the tomb of that senior was in the distance.

It was called a tomb, but it was actually just an ordinary wooden hut.

His body lay inside.

There were no protective formations outside the hut.

However, Li Chang’an saw several treasures recorded in the fourth-tier Beast Taming inheritance.

“Fourth-tier Beast Taming Bells!”

Under the eaves of the hut hung a string of bronze bells.

This treasure was quite peculiar.

Once a demon beast approached, it would emit a clear, ringing sound.

This sound had little effect on human cultivators, but it would cause demon beasts excruciating pain.

The other treasures had similar effects to the Beast Taming Bells.

“These treasures, though not as good as the Beast Taming Wheel, are still quite good. There are simply no materials in the current cultivation world that can be refined from them.”

Li Chang’an’s eyes brightened slightly.

Even without the Beast Blood Gold mentioned in the divination, these treasures alone would have made his trip worthwhile.

With these treasures, his confidence in dealing with the six-winged water serpent would be much greater.

“Ding-a-ling…”

The Beast Taming Bell suddenly shook, as a demonic beast attempted to approach the wooden house.

The beast had three heads, a blue face, and fangs—it was the Three-Headed Blue-Faced Lion.

Moreover,

it was the Lion King of its kind.

“Ah—”

Although he possessed near-fourth-tier strength, he still couldn’t withstand the sound of the Beast Taming Bell.

He had only taken two steps when he howled and collapsed to the ground, writhing in pain, ultimately forced to retreat.

If he had insisted on approaching, he would surely have died at the hands of the Beast Taming Bell and other treasures.

He retreated to a distance, roaring in resentment.

“Why! Our entire clan has guarded you for a full ninety thousand years, why won’t you even give me a single treasure?”

He knew that his predecessor was dead and unable to answer his question; his roar now was purely an act of venting.

At this moment,

the Tiger King roared at him.

“Lion King, don’t waste your energy. Our master comes from a great sect of beast taming, and his beast taming techniques are endless. How could a mere quasi-fourth-tier demon beast like you break through them?”

“Tiger King, don’t you want to walk the path to the fourth tier? If we could obtain fourth-tier essence blood, both of us would have a chance to become fourth-tier demon lords!”

The Lion King turned around and roared angrily, about to hurl a few more insults, but he suddenly froze.

He had seen Li Chang’an beside the Tiger King.

“A human cultivator!”

The Lion King’s face immediately turned even more ugly.

A human cultivator suddenly appearing here could only mean one thing:

this person had passed the test and was qualified to receive that predecessor’s inheritance.

“Human cultivator, leave immediately! This inheritance does not belong to you!”

He was extremely unwilling, glaring angrily, his roar echoing through the sky.

The next instant.

A fourth-tier demon lord’s aura suddenly erupted.

The fourth-tier ancestral puppet of the lion clan, driven by him, arrived to confront the ancestral puppet of the tiger clan.

Furthermore, three-headed blue-faced lions continued to arrive from various parts of the secret realm.

Before long,

thousands had gathered!

Of course, the Tiger King also rallied the tiger clan’s demon beasts.

“Lion King, this human cultivator has met the master’s demands, make way immediately!”

“What master? He is merely the master of our ancestors, not our master!”

The Lion King’s eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at Li Chang’an, seemingly wanting to devour him whole.

In his eyes,

Li Chang’an had come to steal the opportunity.

“Today, this man will not take the opportunity from me!”

“Lion King, you are not qualified to receive the inheritance; you possess nothing!”

The Tiger King, without any hesitation, directly reopened the Lion King’s wounds.

During the conversation,

more and more members of both tribes gathered.

Soon, the number of demonic beasts from both the Tiger and Lion tribes exceeded ten thousand.

The atmosphere was extremely tense, with both sides glaring at each other with hostility, as if a great battle was about to erupt at any moment.

The Tiger King roared, “Lion King, do you truly intend to break the promise of our ancestors?”

The Lion King angrily retorted, “Why should I uphold the promise of our ancestors for a lifetime?”

“If that’s the case, then let’s fight!”

Without further ado, the Tiger King’s aura exploded instantly.

Behind him, tens of thousands of tiger demonic beasts roared in unison, their voices shaking the heavens and earth, their echoes stopping the clouds.

“Lion King, you cannot stop me today!” The

Tiger King’s fighting spirit surged, his tiger eyes filled with ferocity.

At the same time, he secretly transmitted his voice to Li Chang’an.

“Fellow Daoist Li, our two clans are evenly matched. While we fight, find an opportunity to approach that wooden house. Just enter the area affected by the Beast Taming Bell.”

The Tiger King, upholding his ancestor’s promise, intended to send Li Chang’an inside at any cost.

Faced with his determined attitude,

the Lion King suddenly hesitated.

Regardless of victory or defeat, both clans would pay a terrible price, with likely few of their own remaining members.

He glanced back at the numerous lion demons, the bloodlust in his eyes gradually fading.

After a moment,

he took a deep breath, suppressing his emotions, his voice much calmer than before.

“Tiger King, I can step aside, but I have a condition.”

“What condition?”

“Let this human cultivator fight me fairly. If he defeats me, I will lead all my clansmen to retreat!”

The Lion King stared at Li Chang’an as he made his condition, his fighting spirit rising.

“If I simply hand over this opportunity to someone else, I will be unwilling! Human cultivator, you must convince me!”

Hearing this,

the Tiger King turned to look at Li Chang’an.

He secretly inquired, “Fellow Daoist Li, are you confident? If not, then follow the method I mentioned before; there’s no need for a one-on-one battle with this guy.”

Although he said this, he secretly hoped that Li Chang’an would fight the Lion King and defeat him honorably.

This would avoid casualties for his tiger clan and be more convincing.

However,

Li Chang’an’s publicly displayed cultivation level was only at the early Golden Core stage.

The Lion King, on the other hand, had been at the Quasi-Fourth Stage for a long time, accumulating profound knowledge, possessing astonishing talent in demonic arts, and an incredibly strong physique, capable of easily defeating a human cultivator at the peak of the Golden Core stage. The

disparity in their strength was simply too great.

The Tiger King could only pin his hopes on Fourth-Order Beast Taming techniques.

But he was not a Beast Tamer and did not know just how powerful these techniques were.

At this moment, Li Chang’an spoke.

“Fellow Daoist Tiger, there’s no need to worry. Just watch from the sidelines.”

“Alright.”

The Tiger King immediately stepped aside, giving up the battlefield.

He quietly transmitted his voice, informing Li Chang’an of all the demonic arts and techniques the Lion King knew.

“Fellow Daoist Li, if you are no match for him, do not force yourself.”

“Rest assured, I will win this battle.”

As a Nascent Soul cultivator, Li Chang’an naturally could not possibly lose to this little lion.

His expression was calm, and his voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

“Lion King, as you say.”

“Good, human cultivator, you’ll regret this!”

The Lion King roared, his battle blood instantly boiling, and his terrifying battle intent soared to the heavens.

His powerful battle intent instantly infected both races.

All the demons retreated in unison, each one excited.

“Fight! Fight! Fight!”

Demons of rank above the quasi-third level roared.

Whether tiger demons or lion demons, their eyes were now bloodshot, and their frenzied battle roars were deafening.

This battle almost satisfied the desires of all the demons present.

Although the tiger clan was willing to keep their ancestral promise, they really did not want to fight the lion clan, with whom they had lived for ninety thousand years, for the sake of a human cultivator.

The thoughts of many lion demons were similar.

As long as Li Chang’an could defeat the Lion King, they would be convinced and willing to retreat.

Of course.

In their eyes,

Li Chang’an’s chances of winning this battle were slim.

“In this battle, our king will surely win!”

“Our king will surely win!”

“Victory!”

“…”

Countless lion demons roared in unison, cheering for the Lion King.

Amidst this thunderous roar

, a hint of worry flashed across Cui Baiying’s pretty face.

“Fellow Daoist Li, do you really want to fight?”

“Yes.”

Li Chang’an nodded slightly, saying nothing more.

The next moment,

the battle officially began.

The Lion King’s three lion heads opened their blood-red mouths simultaneously, and streaks of crimson light appeared from within.

This was one of his most powerful innate demonic arts.

He did not intend to linger for long, aiming to defeat Li Chang’an in one move.

Just then,

Li Chang’an suddenly transformed into a streak of light, heading straight for him.

“Human cultivator, do you want to compete with me in physical strength?”

Seeing this, the Lion King was not surprised but delighted.

His greatest strength was his physical body!

And the human body was always weak; even if they cultivated to the peak of the third rank, they could not possibly be his match.

“As a human, how dare you, a demon, compete in physical strength? I don’t know whether to call you foolish or fearless!”

The Lion King immediately withdrew its innate demonic arts, baring its fangs and claws, and pounced on Li Chang’an.

In the blink of an eye,

the man and the lion collided in mid-air.

“Boom!”

The explosion shook the heavens and the earth, and the entire secret realm seemed to tremble.

The terrifying impact force transformed into a ripple, sweeping in all directions, scattering countless low-level demonic beasts.

A moment later,

those demonic beasts that barely remained in place all had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

They originally thought that Li Chang’an would definitely suffer in this physical clash.

But the fact was.

The Lion King was sent flying backward, coughing up blood, and crashed heavily to the ground below.

Li Chang’an was unharmed, his long hair flying, his body surging with blood and qi, like a humanoid demon, instantly descending from the sky, and punching the Lion King’s demonic body.

Boom!

The earth trembled, and the sound shook the surrounding area!

His expression was cold and ruthless, unleashing punch after punch, terrifying blows like meteors from beyond the heavens, relentlessly striking the Lion King.

Before the horrified and shocked eyes of all the demonic beasts, a bottomless crater was instantly blasted into the spot!

The Lion King lay in the very center of this crater.

His demonic body was mangled, covered in blood, barely breathing, utterly powerless to retaliate, reduced to a life hanging by a thread.

“Stop…stop hitting me…I surrender…I really surrender…”

His voice was weak and hoarse, no longer possessing its previous ferocity.

Li Chang’an immediately stopped.

His expression was indifferent, he flicked the demonic blood from his hands, and surveyed the surrounding demonic beasts.

“The inheritance belongs to me, do any of you have any objections?”

His icy voice rang out, and the entire world fell silent instantly.

Tens of thousands of demonic beasts on both sides dared not utter a sound, all too shocked by the bloody scene to dare raise their heads, bowing their bodies in submission to Li Chang’an.

In that instant.

Ten thousand demons submitted, without further objection.

Cui Baiying’s lips parted slightly, her eyes somewhat glazed, staring blankly at Li Chang’an.

She had never imagined that Li Chang’an possessed such an astonishing physique.

“Fellow Daoist Cui, come with me.”

Li Chang’an glanced at her, then transformed into a streak of light, landing in front of the wooden house.

He raised his hand and collected the Beast Taming Bell and several other Beast Taming Treasures.

These treasures were of great use to him, so he naturally couldn’t give them to Cui Baiying.

After that,

he slowly pushed open the door.

The interior was simply furnished.

The remains of that senior lay quietly on the wooden bed.

Beside him

was the storage bag he had used in life.

Li Chang’an stopped in front of the wooden bed and bowed respectfully.

“Thank you for leaving behind your legacy, senior. I will certainly not let your legacy be tarnished!”

With that, he tossed out a puppet, which took the storage bag and opened it to examine it.

As a Nascent Soul True Monarch, this senior didn’t leave behind many treasures, perhaps because he suffered too many pursuits in his lifetime, and most of his treasures were used to escape.

For ordinary cultivators,

the most precious thing in their storage bags is naturally a mid-grade fourth-tier Beast Taming inheritance.

However, Li Chang’an had already obtained a high-grade fourth-tier Beast Taming inheritance from the artifact spirit, and both inheritances came from the Beast Taming Sect, with no difference in details.

He directly tossed it to Cui Baiying.

“Fellow Daoist Cui, the White Tiger Sect has a ten-thousand-year history and should have a mid-grade fourth-tier Beast Taming inheritance. This thing might not be of much help to you, but take a look at it casually.”

“Okay.”

Cui Baiying caught the inheritance, didn’t examine it, and directly put it into her storage bag.

Li Chang’an continued to examine other treasures.

Soon, he saw his purpose for this trip.

With a thought, a piece of gold stone immediately appeared in his hand.

This object was dark red all over, with patterns on its surface that resembled bloodstains, and faintly emitted a bloody aura.

It was Beast Blood Gold!

The beast blood gold was quite substantial, enough for Li Chang’an to refine several Beast Taming Wheels.

“It came so easily,”

Li Chang’an smiled.

This trip to the great tomb had been remarkably easy for him, almost like sightseeing.

Besides the beast blood gold, his storage bag contained many other treasures related to beast taming.

Not long after,

Li Chang’an discovered an unexpected delight:

“The recipe for the Beast Heart Pill!”

This Beast Heart Pill is a unique elixir of the Beast Taming Sect, capable of stimulating the potential of demonic beasts.

Li Chang’an had originally intended to ask the artifact spirit, but unexpectedly, it was here.

Moreover,

the materials for refining the Beast Heart Pill are quite common in the current cultivation world, requiring little effort to collect.

“After returning, I’ll buy a few sets of materials, refine the Beast Heart Pill, and exchange it for the Demon Sealing Stone from the Yellow Stone Sect.”

“In that case, I only need one Demon Soul Jade, which isn’t difficult to find, and I can use something else as a substitute…”

Li Chang’an secretly calculated.

He had basically gathered all the materials for refining the fourth-tier low-grade Beast Taming Wheel.

His only concern now was whether he would make a mistake during the refining process.

The difficulty of refining this item far exceeded that of other treasures of the same tier.

“With the artifact spirit overseeing things for me, I shouldn’t fail.”

Li Chang’an collected his thoughts and continued to examine other treasures.

Besides the Beast Heart Pill recipe, the storage bag also contained more than ten other unique Beast Taming Sect recipes, which had all disappeared in the current cultivation world.

In addition…

In the corner of his storage bag lay more than a dozen jade bottles.

Each bottle contained a complete sample of fourth-tier demon beast blood essence!

“Unfortunately, none of them have dragon blood.”

Li Chang’an examined all the blood essence and couldn’t help but sigh.

With these blood essences, he had enough auxiliary blood essence to break through to the fourth tier of body refinement, except for one dragon beast blood essence.

Fourth-tier demon beasts with dragon blood were extremely rare.

It was rumored

that a fourth-tier black dragon existed deep within the Black Dragon Mountains.

But this rumor had been circulating for at least tens of thousands of years!

Even if there really was a black dragon, and it was still alive, Li Chang’an dared not make a move.

How terrifying would the strength of a fourth-tier dragon bloodline demon beast that had lived for tens of thousands of years be?

Just thinking about it

made him a little apprehensive.

“I wonder if that six-winged water serpent has dragon blood.”

“Forget it, I can’t think too much about it. I’ll refine the Beast Taming Wheel first.”

Li Chang’an categorized the treasures in his storage bag.

He collected anything he could use.

As for what he didn’t need, he kept most of it.

Only a small portion was given to Cui Baiying.   Cui Baiying had no objection

to this .   On this trip to the Great Tomb, she had only provided a location for Li Chang’an and hadn’t played any other role.   These treasures were practically freebies for her, and their total value exceeded her expectations before coming.   She smiled and thanked him softly.   ”Thank you, Fellow Daoist Li.”   If she hadn’t invited Li Chang’an,   she would probably still be undergoing that complex assessment with Cui Yan and the others.   ”No need to thank me, Fellow Daoist Cui, you should have received a reward anyway,”   Li Chang’an replied casually.   Then, he began to peruse the remaining cultivation techniques, spells, and cultivation insights in his storage bag.   Li Chang’an had already read a large number of cultivation insights from fourth- and even fifth-tier Beast Tamers through the artifact spirit.   He had initially thought that   this senior’s insights wouldn’t have much to interest him.   However,   some of the records quickly caught his attention.   After leaving the Beast Taming Sect, this senior had traveled almost the entire cultivation world, and his knowledge far surpassed that of ordinary Nascent Soul True Monarchs.   Combining numerous ancient records and rumors circulating throughout the cultivation world, he arrived at a startling conclusion:   ”The cultivation world is shrinking?”   Li Chang’an’s gaze sharpened as he intently studied the contents.   According to this senior’s speculation,   the cultivation world during the ancient era of myriad races was extremely vast, possibly dozens of times larger than during the era of the Nine Great Immortal Sects!   (End of Chapter)
