Beast-Taming Cultiva Chapter 129 : Each with Their Own Schemes

Chapter 129: Each with Their Own Sches

【Na】: Heaven-Eye Blackhawk

【Attributes】: tal, Lightning

【Bloodline】: Third-Tier Superior (Treasure Beast)

【Innate Abilities】: Heaven-Eye Golden Gaze, Alchemic tal-Devouring, Celestial Hunt Lightning-Binding, Heaven’s Jealous Defect.

Heaven-Eye Golden Gaze: A Third-Tier Superior Treasure Art. It bore a hidden eye on its forehead, able to pierce through falsehood, ignoring illusions, formations, and mists of delusion.

Alchemic tal-Devouring: A Third-Tier Superior Treasure Art. By devouring tallic substances, its body could be refined into Geng tal Divine Armants, with hardness so great that it could easily cut through magic treasures of the sa realm.

Celestial Hunt Lightning-Binding: A Third-Tier Peerless Treasure Art. When the hidden eye on its forehead opened, it could condense lightning into chains, sealing spiritual energy and causing a cultivator’s spells, magic treasures, talismans, and formations to temporarily lose effect.

Heaven’s Jealous Defect: A congenital curse within its bloodline. The Heaven-Eye Blackhawk was born blind, with its feathers during infancy shriveled like ashes. Unlike other treasure birds, it could not see thousands of miles with its eyes, nor soar through the heavens.

Only upon advancing to the realm of Beast General could it nd its bloodline, transforming this ability into the Fourth-Tier Peerless Mystic Art All-Seeing Truth.

Recalling the information recorded on the Earthly Fiend Rankings, Chen Beiwu almost could not suppress the excitent in his heart.

The Heaven-Eye Blackhawk was ranked within the top two of the Earthly Fiend Rankings—what did this an?

It was no exaggeration to say that so long as such an Earthly Fiend Treasure Beast had sufficient resources and the right opportunities, it could almost certainly revive its bloodline and advance into a Fourth-Tier Mystic Beast, even becoming a Fourth-Realm Beast King.

If he could obtain such a boundlessly potential Treasure Beast, borrowing the aid of its bloodline, using tal to generate Water, then his chances of advancing to Golden Core and even Nascent Soul would greatly increase.

‘This beast has yet to be contracted. I must find a chance to claim it.’ Chen Beiwu thought inwardly.

Heaven’s gift not taken would bring misfortune.

Even at the infant stage, Earthly Fiend Treasure Beasts were rare enough to be encountered but not sought after. Not to ntion this cub, whose Fate had reached the level of Golden Legend, with faint strands of Crimson Auspicious Fortune mixed within.

The terrifying brilliance of its fate almost blinded his eyes!

Although Chen Beiwu’s gaze paused only imperceptibly, the cultivators present were all at the Foundation Establishnt level, and they instantly saw the fleeting stir of desire in his eyes.

‘Could it be that the Patrolling Formation Envoy is fond of beauty, and has taken a liking to Yu Pan at first sight?’ Xiao Qing pursed her lips, her gaze toward Yu Pan faintly carrying jealousy.

Every personal disciple of True Person Zhu was a true inheritor of the sect.

Although Chen Zi’ang’s cultivation was only at the Qi Refining stage, appearing no different than an ant in their eyes, easily crushed at will—

—but his astounding potential, apprenticed under True Person Zhu, ant that his future achievent would at least be the peak of Foundation Establishnt. He even had the chance to form a Golden Core, leaping into the ranks of sect elites.

‘Fond of beauty, eh? That is easily dealt with.’ Lu Lei’s heart leapt with joy.

He did not fear Chen Zi’ang being greedy—he feared Chen Zi’ang not being greedy.

As long as he could grasp Chen Zi’ang’s desires, he could cater to them, gain his trust, and even turn the tables to control him, making this newly appointed Patrolling Formation Envoy part of his own hidden network.

‘Unable even to restrain a youth’s lustful heart… cultivators of the sect nowadays are becoming more and more…!’ Wei Bichun secretly shook her head.

If not for the sect’s emphasis on relationships and nepotism, letting a group of useless people occupy high positions and monopolize resources, she would never have been dragged into this ss with Qingsu Island.

‘What’s going on? I dressed up like this, yet this guy still has eyes for ?’ Yu Pan’s heart tightened.

The reason she went to such lengths to join Mirror Moon Sect and beco a Formation Guardian of the Formation Hall was precisely to ddle in Qingsu Island’s land reclamation project, in search of the legendary Third-Tier Flood Dragon’s corpse.

Before she found the corpse, she had no wish to attract the attention of any cultivators.

Unexpectedly, the newly arrived Patrolling Formation Envoy noticed her unusualness at first glance.

‘But perhaps this is also an opportunity.’ Yu Pan’s thoughts turned.

She had searched Qingsu Island for five years without finding a trace of the Flood Dragon’s corpse, which showed the sect hid it deeply—likely within the formation core of the Sea-Gathering Return-Island Grand Formation.

If she could obtain the Patrolling Formation Envoy’s token from Chen Zi’ang, she would have the chance to enter the formation’s key hub and acquire the Flood Dragon’s blood essence.

‘Interesting.’ Beneath her veil, Yun Yishu’s lips curved slightly, her gaze shifting between Chen Beiwu and Yu Pan.

Junior Brother Chen was of rogue-cultivator origin. If he could pair with a sect disciple as Dao-companion, it would be a fine matter.

“I have already prepared wine and dishes at Drunken Fragrance Pavilion. Since the two honored envoys have co from afar, why not move there and taste Qingsu Island’s local specialties?” Lu Lei bowed deeply.

Yun Yishu gave a slight nod, not refusing.

She had personally escorted her junior brother to his appointnt precisely to make clear that he was under her protection, ensuring that Qingsu Island’s cultivators would not deliberately make things difficult for him due to his weak cultivation.

…

After food and drink, Senior Sister Yun departed from Qingsu Island, while Chen Beiwu, under Yu Pan’s lead, went toward the edge of the Ten-Thousand-Wastes Sea to carry out sect tasks.

“Senior Brother Chen, this is the formation core of the Sea-Gathering Return-Island Grand Formation. It requires a Formation Hall token to activate.” Yu Pan explained.

It was easy to close the distance at a wine table, and after a round of eating and chatting, she had successfully shifted her address to “Senior Brother Chen.”

Chen Beiwu took out the Patrolling Formation Envoy’s token.

“Weng!”

As Chen Beiwu infused it with spiritual power, the seemingly empty sea, where only waves surged, suddenly revealed a faint formation barrier.

Seeing the might of the grand formation, Chen Beiwu’s heart stirred.

No wonder the sect had not stationed cultivators here.

The Sea-Gathering Return-Island Grand Formation itself was a Third-Tier Superior formation. Unless a Golden Core True Person descended personally, even dozens of Foundation Establishnt cultivators joining together to unleash their arts could not break its defenses, let alone enter its formation core.

Nodding toward Yu Pan, the token in Chen Beiwu’s hand shone brightly, and his figure vanished from sight.

Gazing at the sparkling sea before her, Yu Pan furrowed her brows slightly, transmitting her thought: ‘Xiao Hui, if you and I join forces, can we take him down?’

She had a habit of making Xiao Hui simulate the power disparity whenever she t a cultivator.

This good habit had allowed her to survive many calamities and safely reach Foundation Establishnt.

“Caw!” The Heaven-Eye Blackhawk shook its head.

‘Not possible?’ Yu Pan’s eyes showed surprise.

She and Xiao Hui together could force even a mid-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator to perish on the spot, yet they could not handle a Qi Refining cultivator?

‘Could it be that Chen Zi’ang carries a Golden Core magic treasure?’ Yu Pan’s expression shifted slightly.

She never doubted Xiao Hui’s judgnt.

If not for the fortune of picking up Xiao Hui and, under its guidance, stumbling step by step onto the cultivation path, defeating many powerful foes, she would long have perished in the hands of bandits and demonic cultivators.

“Caw!” The mysterious marking on the Heaven-Eye Blackhawk’s forehead stirred faintly.

After following Yu Pan for so many years, it had seen not ten thousand but at least several thousand cultivators, and could always discern their foundations clearly.

Yet it could not see through Chen Zi’ang, nor that mysterious honored envoy.

‘Never mind. If the sky collapses, Lu Lei will be holding it up in front anyway.’ Yu Pan soothed herself with this thought.

The Flood Dragon’s corpse was important, yes, but not indispensable. Within the sect’s Profound Secrets Hall, there were still Flood Dragon Blood Pills available for exchange.

If necessary, she could abandon the Flood Dragon’s corpse, redeem rit instead, and spend a hundred years completing sect missions, accumulating enough contribution points to exchange for five Flood Dragon Blood Pills.
