Chapter 413 Yuanhuo Yunni
"Master—Master!"
When Tie Dan walked up to Chen Beiwu, he lowered his head slightly to show his respect.
Just call me Beiwu.
Chen Beiwu smiled calmly and probed Tie Dan's three meridians with his divine sense.
After glancing at the general situation of the Iron Egg Yuan and the two lineages, Chen Beiwu immediately looked at the Dharma lineage.
As expected, with the blessing of the strange fire, in terms of cultivation alone, Tie Dan's cultivation level far surpasses that of Xue Le, reaching 1,785 years, second only to Jin Dan in the team.
As for the newly awakened Demon King True Domain and special profound abilities in the Iron Egg lineage, their effects are quite powerful, causing Chen Beiwu to raise his eyebrows slightly and nod in praise.
"Hey!" (I'm not bad either!)
Schiller moved closer to Chen Beiwu.
Although it has only been practicing for 1,600 years, it is not afraid of facing Tie Dan head-on.
"Becoming a Nascent Soul Demon King is not our end goal; our future lies in transforming into a Deity or Refining Void!"
Chen Beiwu embraced the four little ones, Jin Dan, Tie Dan, Xue Le, and Zhi Ling, and whispered his ambition.
Before he became a Nascent Soul True Monarch, he dared not presume to talk about transforming into a Divine Transformation Realm, and could only keep this goal silently in his heart.
But things are different now!
He has now attained the position of Nascent Soul True Monarch, and with the assistance of the Nine Breaths Chaos and two supernatural powers, it is not impossible for his cultivation to advance further in the future and reach the level of Divine Transformation and Void Refinement.
"roar!"
"Woof!"
"Hey!"
"Eek!"
Upon hearing Chen Beiwu's ambition, the four little ones exchanged glances and then looked up in unison to echo his sentiments.
Qingming Peak, with water flowing outside.
Hundreds of students from the Immortal Sect stood three hundred feet away from the cave, their expressions awe-inspiring, and they spoke in hushed tones.
Some students from the prestigious Tianjiao Sect subconsciously straightened their Daoist robes, adopting a respectful posture, and their eyes held a hint of longing as they looked towards the cave dwelling.
Although their cultivation level was only Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, they could still learn through the Jade Purity Immortal Sect's official website and the Wanling app that the current sect's chief, Chen Beiwu, had successfully attained the Dao True Monarch realm, a status comparable to some mid-level sect leaders.
The reason they lingered outside the cave and refused to leave was to catch Chen Zhenjun's eye.
Yes, that's right. Even though they knew the chances were slim and it would be difficult for Chen Zhenjun to take a liking to them, they were still reluctant to give up such a rare opportunity.
What if?
What if the newly appointed chief true lord decides to take on a disciple?
What if Chen Zhenjun happens to notice me in the crowd and I gain his favor, thus elevating my status to new heights?
If all else fails, one's identity is something one chooses oneself. Being able to meet Chen Zhenjun once will provide something to talk about when making friends and discussing philosophy in the future.
After all, not every cultivator can enter the outer perimeter of Qingming Peak and witness Chen Zhenjun's emergence from seclusion.
Junior brother, did you arrange this?
Su Muyu glanced at the students not far away and transmitted her thoughts telepathically.
"It was most likely arranged by his subordinates." Jiang Chuan stroked his beard, looking smug.
It was he who took a liking to Junior Brother Chen at first sight and introduced him to Master.
Now, Junior Brother Chen is not yet a hundred years old, yet he has successfully attained the Dao of True Monarch, with a Dharma form of 45,000 zhang, breaking through the official records of the Immortal Sect in one fell swoop. This alone is enough to prove that he has unique vision and has made great contributions to the Dongming Changqing lineage.
Such a show-off scene naturally needs some audience members to witness it, otherwise it would be utterly boring.
In the past, let alone students of immortal sects who were related to the Dongming Changqing lineage, even disciples of the Changqing lineage were not qualified to approach Shuiyan Residence.
As for Junior Brother Chen's safety?
Jiang Chuan's expression shifted, and he sensed that around Shui Yanju's cave, there were subtle, almost imperceptible energies that coexisted with heaven and earth.
Without a doubt, Junior Brother Chen's attainment of the True Monarch realm has alarmed many powerful figures within the sect.
Those powerful cultivators who usually secluded themselves for cultivation or traveled far and wide, rarely seen in the world, all set aside a wisp of their consciousness to watch over this place. Among them, there might be many Nascent Soul True Venerables secretly observing.
In this situation, even if a powerful cultivator wanted to harm Junior Brother Chen, they would likely face certain death and destruction.
"A Primordial Dharma Form of 45,000 zhang, Junior Brother is truly remarkable." Mo Chen sighed with admiration.
The worst thing is to compare things.
Compared to his junior brother Yuanshi Faxiang, the Tiangang Faxiang he forged was like a child.
Of course, the size of the Dharma image does not represent the full extent of its power.
If they were to spar on the spot, he was absolutely confident that he could defeat his junior brother by relying on his superior cultivation level.
But what's the point of defeating them?
What truly alarmed the higher-ups of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect was the terrifying potential displayed by their junior brother during his recent attainment of the Dao True Monarch realm.
"Buzz!"
Just then, the cave gate opened.
A figure in white slowly stepped out.
"Junior brother, congratulations."
Yue Chenfeng took a step forward, a rare smile appearing on his usually serious face.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother, on attaining the Dao True Monarch."
Su Muyu's eyes were like autumn water, and she smiled. Suddenly, a warm jade bottle appeared in her palm: "This is the Nascent Soul Elixir that I obtained by chance a few years ago. It can nourish and stabilize the newly promoted True Monarch Nascent Soul. It can also be regarded as a congratulatory gift to Junior Brother for proving the Dao of True Monarch."
Mo Chen and Jiang Chuan exchanged a glance, both somewhat surprised.
I never expected that Senior Sister Su would think so highly of Junior Brother, even offering him the Infant Nourishing Liquid.
According to the sect's rules, after the sect's chief cultivator attains the status of a True Monarch, a True Monarch Ceremony will be held to announce his Dao title. Only then will cultivators present their Nascent Soul gifts.
That is why none of them prepared the Nascent Soul Ceremony in advance, except for Senior Sister Su, who intended to deepen their relationship and prepared in advance.
"Thank you, senior brothers and sisters."
Chen Beiwu did not refuse, accepted the jade bottle with both hands, and bowed slightly to his senior brothers and sisters.
Upon seeing this, Tong Hui stood at a distance, not daring to approach.
With a Nascent Soul True Monarch in front of her, it would be presumptuous for her to rush forward and greet him.
At the same time, upon seeing Chen Beiwu's figure appear, some of the hidden divine consciousness clones quietly disappeared.
While a newly promoted True Monarch with a Dharma Body of 45,000 feet is indeed rare and worth befriending, the gathering of Chen Beiwu's fellow disciples at this moment is not a good opportunity to get acquainted.
"Junior Brother, have you decided on your title of True Lord?"
As soon as Mo Chen finished speaking, not only his fellow disciples around him, but even the students of the sect in the distance had their eyes light up with curiosity.
"Junior brother hasn't decided yet; he needs to think about it some more," Chen Beiwu said truthfully.
He's terrible at naming things, so he'll need to discuss the specific title with the Golden Eggs.
"It's better to be cautious." Everyone nodded slightly.
The title of True Monarch may seem like just a title, but it is actually linked to a cultivator's destiny and fortune, and is associated with their reputation. Once determined, it is unlikely to be changed.
However, Junior Brother only needs to confirm his True Lord title before the Nascent Soul Ceremony; there's no need to rush.
"Senior brothers and sisters, I have something I'd like to discuss with you," Chen Beiwu said telepathically.
"Sure, Yunyanju recently acquired a new batch of Yunsong tea." Yue Chenfeng nodded in agreement and suggested that they discuss the matter in another location.
As they spoke, Chen Beiwu and his senior brothers and sisters all took a step forward.
As the void rippled, the five figures vanished without a trace, leaving the group of immortal sect students speechless, their expressions revealing their disappointment.
Qingming Cave Heaven.
Inside Yunyan Residence, wisps of tea smoke curled upwards, releasing a tranquil aroma that soothed the mind.
However, the atmosphere inside the cave was somewhat heavy.
"Junior brother, are you sure?"
Yue Chenfeng paused and looked at Chen Beiwu.
"Of course I'm certain." Chen Beiwu nodded, his expression natural. "I was just worried that this matter might affect our sect, so I informed my fellow disciples in advance."
Upon hearing this, Su Muyu, Mo Chen, and Jiang Chuan were both surprised and found it somewhat normal.
A prodigy like my junior brother always keeps his word and does what he says.
Yue Chenfeng put down his teacup and gave Chen Beiwu a deep look: "Junior Brother, what Xiao Yu did back then is in the past. The sect has already severely punished him and stripped him of his Jade Purity Golden Book qualification. There is no need to continue to pursue it."
"That's right, junior brother, this is inappropriate." Senior Brother Jiang Chuan shook his head and said bluntly, "In the life-and-death arena, there is bound to be one who lives and one who dies. Why do you need to take such a risk?"
Su Muyu nodded and said gently, "That's right. Junior Brother, you have just attained the True Monarch realm. Right now, the most important thing is to go into seclusion to consolidate your Dao foundation and refine your Nascent Soul."
Of the four, only Senior Brother Jiang Chuan did not try to dissuade him. Instead, he looked at Chen Beiwu with a solemn expression and said, "Junior Brother, how confident are you? Xiao Yu is no ordinary Nascent Soul stage True Monarch. To try and kill him across realms is no easy task!"
"Senior brothers and sisters, I want to give it a try."
Chen Beiwu understood everyone's concerns and answered frankly, "As for the chances of success, once my Nascent Soul is stable and I get through the period of weakness, I have a 90% chance."
Ninety percent?
Hearing this, Yue Chenfeng did not question it, but said solemnly, "Junior brother, Xiao Yu's strength is not as simple as you think. Wouldn't it be safest to wait until your cultivation reaches the mid-Nascent Soul stage before initiating the life-and-death arena battle?"
"I'm afraid Xiao Yu won't accept the challenge on the life-or-death stage," Chen Beiwu said, expressing his concern.
People like Xiao Yu, who come from noble lineages and are second-generation members of immortal sects, value their reputation above all else.
He initiated the life-or-death arena battle with his early Nascent Soul cultivation level. Even if Xiao Yu had reservations, the probability of him refusing was not high.
The reason is simple: given the difference in their cultivation levels, Xiao Yu's refusal to compete in the Life and Death Arena is tantamount to admitting defeat to Chen Beiwu.
In addition, those True Monarchs who can forge a Pure Yang Nascent Soul are all peerless geniuses, representing a part of their family's reputation.
If Xiao Yu refuses, it would, to some extent, bring shame to the Tianyuan Xiao family and make them a laughing stock.
After all, if a dignified Dao Venerable Immortal Clan prodigy, a mid-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch, dares not even accept the challenge of an early-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch, then what kind of immortal is he cultivating?
Conversely, once Chen Beiwu's cultivation reaches the mid-Nascent Soul stage, at the same level, Xiao Yu will have many reasons to refuse to compete in the Life and Death Arena.
Even if he might lose face, Xiao Yu would most likely choose to back down when faced with his life and fortune.
"Fine."
Yue Chenfeng did not try to persuade him further.
Since his junior brother has made up his mind, nothing he says will make a difference.
"Why is it like this? The Xiao family of Tianyuan is not someone to be trifled with." Mo Chen still didn't understand.
Even if my junior brother can kill Xiao Yu, so what?
Xiao Yu was born into the Dao Venerable Immortal Clan, while his mother, Yu Shuxian, was a Nascent Soul Perfected True Monarch from a True Venerable Clan. The Yu family had a total of five Transformation True Venerables in charge.
His relative is Xuan Yuan Zhen Zun, whose cultivation is unfathomable. He is also a direct disciple of Lian Xu Dao Zun, and his methods are extraordinary.
Even if his junior brother is the current chief of Yuqing, offending these two major forces in order to kill Xiao Yu would be a losing proposition.
"It's not that Junior Brother doesn't want to retreat, but that he can't and shouldn't retreat. Besides, Xiao Yu alone doesn't represent the entire Tianyuan Xiao family," Chen Beiwu said in a deep voice.
The Xiao family is not to be trifled with, but is he easy to mess with?
Hit a punch to avoid a hundred punches.
If he is still considering whether he will offend the other party's forces when they have already formed a grudge, then he deserves to be plotted against and killed.
Furthermore, Xiao Yu and other second-generation disciples of sects are not isolated cases. If he backs down this time, it is hard to guarantee that other second-generation disciples of sects will not make a move for the Jade Purity Golden Book qualification.
Su Muyu frowned slightly, realizing that her junior brother had already thought it through.
Indeed, Xiao Yu cannot represent the Tianyuan Xiao family.
If my junior brother can kill him on the life-and-death arena and prove his strength, the Tianyuan Xiao family will certainly be furious because their clan's pride has fallen and their reputation has been damaged.
However, due to the sect's rules, the Xiao family could not openly take action against their junior brother; at most, they could target him in other ways.
"Junior brother, since that's the case, would you be willing to spar with me?"
Upon hearing Su Muyu's words, everyone in Yunyan Residence, including Chen Beiwu, became interested.
Good suggestion!
The early and middle stages of the Nascent Soul realm may seem like only a step apart, but in reality, the difference is as vast as mountains and seas.
Instead of continuing to persuade him, it would be better to let the junior brother experience firsthand the strength of a mid-stage Nascent Soul prodigy.
"Senior sister, may I ask what your cultivation level is?" Chen Beiwu's eyes brightened slightly, and a fighting spirit surged in his heart.
"Peak of the Nascent Soul stage."
Upon hearing this, Su Muyu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Junior Brother Chen, I will use a secret technique to suppress my cultivation and keep my realm at the mid-Nascent Soul stage."
"Please give me your guidance, Senior Sister." Chen Beiwu naturally wouldn't refuse.
Even when fighting against a Nascent Soul Peak True Monarch, or even a Nascent Soul True Monarch whose cultivation is suppressed, he can still gain a lot of insights.
"There's no time like the present, so how about we hold our sparring session at Qingming Cave?" Yue Chenfeng suggested.
"Okay," Su Muyu replied crisply.
She wanted to take this opportunity to see the legendary Primordial Dharma Form with her own eyes.
Qingming Cave Heaven.
To prevent the news from leaking out, the eldest brother specially selected a secluded dueling platform deep within the cave as the venue for their duel.
On the stage, a giant beast phantom slowly emerged from the space behind Su Muyu.
The phantom was initially indistinct, but then it broke through space to reveal its true form.
It resembles a giant lion, but has the head of a dragon, with jade horns on its head winding towards the sky, and flames swirling around the tips of the horns. Its entire body is covered with cloud-like flowing scales.
For some reason, the giant beast's eyes were closed, and its tail, shimmering with iridescent light, swayed slowly behind it.
Although it did not exude any pressure, it possessed an aura of dominance that looked down upon all living beings.

【Name】：Yuanhuo Yunni 【Attributes】：Fire, Wind 【Bloodline】：Fourth-Tier Supreme Grade 【Mystic Abilities】：Flowing Fire Cloud Body, Wildfire Edict, Cloud Lion Heavenly Roar ————
Flowing Fire Cloud Body: A fourth-tier supreme profound skill. The body, resembling a cloud of primordial fire, exists between flowing clouds and blazing flames. It can gather and disperse unpredictably, transforming into a sky full of fiery clouds to evade magical techniques.
Wherever the cloud passed, fire was fueled by the wind, and the wind amplified the fire's power. Its form was elusive and unpredictable, and its power was so great that it could scorch the heavens and boil the seas. Even a True Monarch's divine sense could not pinpoint the true form of the primordial fire cloud.
Wildfire Cloud Decree: A fourth-tier supreme profound power, the Primordial Fire Cloud Appearance is born with the power to control both wind and fire. Its roar, gaze, magic power, and even the energy it generates can ignite wildfire seeds, igniting the opponent's magic power, divine sense, blood and qi, golden core and nascent soul, forming an unquenchable heart fire and wind disaster.
The longer the battle with Yuan Huoyunmao lasts, the stronger the power of Xin Huo Fengchao becomes, making it extremely effective against those with abundant magical power and those skilled in defense.
Cloud-like Roar: A fourth-tier supreme-grade profound skill, the Cloud-like Primordial Fire Killing Profound Skill, with boundless power, capable of cleansing the universe and destroying nascent souls.
[Introduction]: Yuanhuo Yunmao is a special mystical beast born from the interaction of different fires with celestial phenomena. It often roams the cloud domain where earth fires are surging. Although this beast is not among the Heavenly Gang Mystical Beasts, its combat power at the same level is comparable to some fifth-order fire-attribute Yuan beasts and far surpasses fourth-order mystical beasts. Hence, the beast's name includes the character "Ming".
Recalling Yuan Huoyun's information, Chen Beiwu's eyes narrowed.
When there is a gap in cultivation level, the simplest way to win is undoubtedly to use the bloodline restraint relationship with the same practitioner.
Upon this thought, Chen Beiwu's spirit ring flashed with a faint light, and a dog's bark suddenly rang out.
A flash of fire appeared, and Tie Dan's figure appeared, landing in front of Chen Beiwu to confront Yuan Huoyun.
Its vertical eye on its forehead flickered slightly, causing the Yuanhuo Yunni, whose eyes were closed not far away, to suddenly open them, its eyes showing a look of fear.
