Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World-Chapter 960 - 450: Upper Grade Life Chart and Merging with the Dust, Obtaining Immortal Beast Essence Blood
At this time, an elder dressed in a white robe, looking wise and celestial, was flying toward the Mixed Primal Valley.
A pair of small eyes seemed to harbor deceit and cunning.
The aura around him blended perfectly with the environment, as if he was naturally a part of it.
Whether human cultivators or exotic beasts, they all naturally ignored his presence.
He seemed like a mere roadside stone, never drawing any attention.
He was Daoist Chen.
"Damn these exotic beasts, chasing me so relentlessly."
"They force me to constantly change my residence."
"However, once I completely refine this drop of Immortal Beast Essence Blood, those exotic beasts will never be able to find me."
Daoist Chen’s eyes revealed a hint of fervent desire.
Truth be told, even he didn’t expect to encounter such a great opportunity.
In fact, he accidentally ventured into the deepest parts of the Ice Crystal Mountain Range, initially planning an adventure with a group of companions to hunt exotic beasts.
Who could have imagined that they would suddenly suffer an onslaught from a large number of exotic beasts, forcing him to flee into the mountain range’s deepest recesses.
Thankfully, due to his special ability, he evaded the pursuit of many exotic beasts, then witnessed a scene he’ll never forget.
In the mountain range’s depths lay the colossal corpse of a monster, mountain-sized, its aura suffocating him, suffocatingly crushing him alive with just one step closer.
Simultaneously, a large amount of blood flowed from this monster’s corpse, forming a vast blood-red lake.
He immediately recognized it as the legendary Immortal Beast’s blood.
The monster corpse was the remains of a fallen Immortal Beast.
The birth of many exotic beasts in the Ice Prison originated from the fallen Immortal Beast.
He didn’t expect such luck, to arrive at the source of the exotic beasts’ genesis.
Undoubtedly, this was the greatest opportunity of his lifetime.
He couldn’t miss it, or he’d surely regret it forever.
Because of this, Daoist Chen cautiously approached, stole a drop of Immortal Beast Essence Blood while the exotic beasts were unguarded, and swiftly fled.
Initially, the exotic beasts were unaware, as his special ability not only concealed his aura but also the aura of the treasures he held.
But upon leaving the mountain range’s depths, his ability began to falter, having a time limit and cooldown period.
Only after the cooldown could he reuse it.
This angered the exotic beasts, feeling insulted that a thief dared to intrude their forbidden grounds and steal the sacred ancestral blood.
Thus, many beasts emerged from the forbidden area to hunt the thief who stole the ancestral blood.
Daoist Chen, unable to refine the Immortal Beast Essence Blood swiftly, resorted to fleeing to one human camp after another, leveraging the camps’ power to delay the exotic beasts’ pursuit.
Due to Daoist Chen’s actions, a beast tide erupted, bringing disaster to countless human camps, and many died because of him.
The exotic beasts became increasingly enraged at their inability to locate Daoist Chen, their numbers swelling.
They spread across the land.
"What a shame, these exotic beasts pursue so relentlessly."
"They give me no time to refine the Immortal Beast Essence Blood."
"Moreover, the energy within the blood is fiercely violent."
"Forced refinement would only cause my body to explode."
"Therefore, careful, subtle refinement is necessary."
"Once successful, my Spiritual Root Talent and cultivation ability will dramatically improve."
"Then I’d possess a physique like the exotic beasts."
"Advancing to the Void Refining Level would be as easy as a meal."
"In the future, I could steal more Immortal Beast Essence Blood."
"The Ice Crystal Mountain Range is surely the place of my rise, my opportunity ground."
Daoist Chen clenched his fists, feeling immense excitement.
Having lived so long, it was his first time encountering such a grand opportunity.
Refining more Immortal Beast Essence Blood wouldn’t only allow advancement to the Void Refinement Realm, but potentially the Integration Realm too.
Then he’d become a top figure like Daoist Xuan Yuan, wielding life and death over countless beings.
No longer would he be chased without escape.
Truthfully, he’d had enough of living a weak man’s life, like a homeless dog every day.
"Is that the newly established human camp Mixed Primal Valley ahead?"
"I heard it appeared recently, with a substantial population."
"The camp’s founders must be Divinity Transformation cultivators at least."
"Anyway, the stronger the better, they can help fend off more exotic beasts, buying me time, truly an upper grade land."
"Although they’ll likely die from beast attacks, their sacrifice builds the foundation of my ascension."
"Once I become immortal, I’ll avenge these ants."
"But for now, they must obediently become stepping stones for me, Daoist Chen."
