Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 154 - 152 Subduing the Fire Ape

Qin Feng’s words seemed to be filled with endless temptation, "Brother Zhuo, one only has one life, and only by surviving can one have the chance to obtain everything you desire.

Only by surviving can one become stronger, and when you are strong, you can acquire even more.

If you manage to become a Sword Immortal, or even the most powerful entity in your Taiyi Mountain, what would it matter if people learned about today’s events? They would be too busy trying to ingratiate themselves with you to dare speak ill of you behind your back, right?

Even if you possessed enough strength, as long as you killed Sister Li and me, nobody would ever know about today’s incident."

Zhuo Feifan’s heart was pounding, but he quickly said, "How could that be? My cultivation is far inferior to Daoist Fellow Li’s; how could I possibly kill you both?"

Qin Feng sneered inwardly, this fellow’s focus was on the inability to kill them, not on the unwillingness to do so. His mind was so obvious, why even bother to make excuses?

However, he pretended not to notice and continued, "To cultivate to a higher realm, the position of a True Disciple is indispensable. Only then can you have the qualifications to compete for the Sect Leader’s seat in the future.

Only by assuming the position of Sect Leader can you control a large number of resources to aid your own cultivation, and have the chance of achieving longevity and becoming a Sword Immortal.

On your own, and no offense, Brother Zhuo, while you have talent, you ultimately lack sufficient backing and assistance. It is hard for you to fulfill your wishes.

But we can be your best helpers."

Qin Feng’s smile grew even brighter, "We can clear all obstacles for you, eliminate all stumbling blocks on the path of cultivation.

With our help, you’ll soon become a True Disciple of Taiyi Mountain, and when the time comes for you to contend for the Sect Leader’s position, we will eliminate those competitors for you as well.

All you need to do is provide us with a small token of gratitude for our assistance, Brother Zhuo. After all, it’s not unreasonable for us to ask for a little benefit in return for helping you so much, is it?"

Zhuo Feifan nodded vehemently, "Fine, I agree to your terms. However, I expect you to keep our agreement confidential. If word of today’s incident were to spread, I would surely face death, but you would also not gain any further benefits from me."

"Rest assured, Brother Zhuo, we are well aware of that," Qin Feng replied with a beaming smile. "After all, the higher your status, Brother Zhuo, the more benefits you can bring us, right?"

Li Miaozhen was stunned by the turn of events. She hadn’t expected that this Junior Brother Qin, whom she had only met once, would in a moment persuade a Taiyi Mountain disciple who had been adamantly unyielding to become their inside man.

Although Qin Feng’s words were nice, claiming a partnership and alliance, this did not change the fact that Zhuo Feifan would provide them with plenty of Taiyi Mountain’s inside information in the future.

Moreover, as Zhuo Feifan’s cultivation rose, his competitors within Taiyi Mountain would grow stronger. Helping him eliminate these competitors meant killing off Taiyi Mountain’s elite disciples.

This not only rid them of some powerful individuals with potential in Taiyi Mountain but also brought other benefits. Truly, it was killing two birds with one stone.

She wondered if she should also learn to employ these tactics in the future, as they seemed much more useful than simply killing the opposition.

However, she quickly abandoned this line of thought.

Never mind, it did not suit her nature to engage in such dealings - better to leave it to those who were proficient in these matters.

"Brother Zhuo, since we have reached a consensus, to show our sincerity, we will take care of Chen Buqi for you, paving the way for your true inheritance."

Qin Feng looked at Zhuo Feifan and smiled, "Is it not time for you to show your sincerity, Brother Zhuo? What exactly is your sect’s plan in the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm?"

Zhuo Feifan gritted his teeth, having reached this point, there was not much left to hide.

He said, "Two hundred and forty years ago, a disciple of Taiyi Mountain obtained a damaged Jade Scroll in the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm that contained some information about this Cave Heaven World, including a method to activate the power of the rules and open that portal.

But that Jade Scroll is now nearly ruined, and only after several explorations was our elder able to pinpoint this area."

"Is there something in that cave, an Ancient Inheritance perhaps?"

Li Miaozhen asked.

This was the question she cared most about; she had entered to find out what exactly the Taiyi Mountain disciples were searching for.

"No, there is no Ancient Sect’s inheritance there."

Zhuo Feifan said, "The true inheritance was likely destroyed during the Ancient Great Tribulation, otherwise the Jade Scroll we obtained wouldn’t be so damaged."

The cave was actually a passageway leading to the heart of the Cave Heaven World. The Sect instructed us to establish a Guiding Array deep within the Earth Core, and then place the imitation Golden Light Mirror within the array.

After the Secret Realm closed, the Supreme Elder of our Sect would hold the genuine Golden Light Mirror. Through the connection with the imitation, they would lock onto the position of this Cave Heaven World in the Void, and then transport themselves here through the Great Array.

Although this Cave Heaven World possesses the power to suppress laws, preventing those with too great strength from entering, the suppression of the laws is weak deep within the Earth Core. Moreover, the Great Array that the Sect has acquired at great expense is capable of deceiving and evading detection, hiding one’s presence. It can guide the Supreme Elder inside, who can then slowly refine the Cave Heaven Principle and assimilate it for their own use."

"So that’s how it is."

Li Miaozhen suddenly understood, "Your Taiyi Mountain has made thorough preparations."

Zhuo Feifan curled the edge of his mouth but said nothing.

Qin Feng thought for a moment and asked, "Is it difficult to set up that array?"

"Not particularly."

Zhuo Feifan said, "Since the Sect Elders feared we wouldn’t understand the Array, they specially commissioned someone to craft the Array Map and the necessary materials for arranging the Array. As long as we follow the Array Map, there should be no mistakes."

"Is that so?"

Qin Feng stroked his chin in thought and said to Li Miaozhen, "Senior Sister, we should hurry inside and take a look. I think it would be better for you to eliminate Chen Buqi as soon as possible. If that guy senses danger and doesn’t dare to come out, it would be troublesome if they manage to guide their Supreme Elder here ahead of time."

"Mm, I was thinking the same."

Li Miaozhen nodded in agreement.

"Brother Zhuo."

Qin Feng looked at Zhuo Feifan, his face blossoming into a warm smile, "Your injuries are not serious, are they?"

Zhuo Feifan glanced at him and said, "Daoist Fellow Li’s cultivation is profound. One strike from her and I suffered severe internal injuries and damage to my meridians. Now, I can’t even exert half the strength I had at my peak. Without several months to recover, it’s impossible to return to my original state."

"Oh?"

Qin Feng looked at him in surprise. This guy was really strong, having taken a blow from Li Miaozhen and still able to exert nearly half of his strength.

Of course, that had to do with Li Miaozhen’s intention to capture him alive for questioning at the time.

"Since Brother Zhuo is still able to move, please accompany us on this trip. Perhaps we’ll need Brother Zhuo’s cooperation later on."

Zhuo Feifan was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly and stood up to lead the way.

He knew that the two of them still somewhat distrusted him, which is why they let him take the lead. If something went wrong, with his current condition, he would definitely not be able to withstand a single blow from Li Miaozhen and would perish.

The group made their way towards the cave.

Zhuo Feifan walked in front, entering the cave first. Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen followed closely behind, no more than two or three steps away. With Li Miaozhen’s formidable strength, they had no fear of him trying anything.

However, upon entering the cave, they were surprised to find the Fire Ape there, barely clinging to life, yet still alive.

It had been severely injured by a Sword Array from the Taiyi Mountain disciples and had just broken through to condense a Demon Core when Zhuo Feifan shattered it with a Sword Talisman.

Then, when Chen Buqi and the others entered the cave and the reflection from the Golden Light Mirror was lost, the rule-enforced Thunder struck the Fire Ape, nearly killing it on the spot.

The Fire Ape barely managed to hide inside the cave. Plus, its life force was weakening, nearing death, and concealed by the aura of the cave, the force of the outer rules gradually dissipated, allowing it to barely hang onto life.

Seeing that Li Miaozhen did not care about the Fire Ape, knowing she probably had enough Spiritual Beasts and did not want to waste resources on another, Qin Feng ran over and placed the Fire Ape into the Demon Refining Pot.

If the Fire Ape were at its peak, it would never let him get close; even with a shattered Demon Core, it was still a demon beast at the Foundation Establishment Peak, capable of spewing flames that would make Qin Feng flee.

But now it was gravely wounded and on the brink of death, its consciousness slipping into semi-consciousness, and thus, it offered no resistance as Qin Feng took it into the Demon Refining Pot.

It was then refined by the Demon Refining Pot and became Qin Feng’s Spiritual Beast.

Qin Feng felt joyful inside. This was a powerful Spiritual Beast that had once condensed a Demon Core and had the experience of Core Formation. If its injuries were properly treated, it might not take many years to accumulate enough power to condense a Demon Core once more.

In the Secret Realm, the Fire Ape’s progression was suppressed and did not dare to advance, as that would be a death sentence, but once taken out, there would be no such restrictions.

Once the Fire Ape formed a Demon Core, his own strength would truly be formidable.

Not to mention anything else, with this Fire Ape, if he returned to his hometown, he could sweep through Kun City entirely. At that time, the small Huang Family wouldn’t amount to much.

Qin Feng forcefully suppressed the joy in his heart and covertly manipulated the Spiritual Energy within the Demon Refining Pot to aid the Fire Ape’s recovery.

Although without the corresponding Spiritual Elixirs, the recovery was very slow, it was much better than its previous unconscious state, lying on the ground awaiting death.

Moreover, he put several Healing Pills from his own supply into the pot for the Fire Ape to consume. Among them, the Revive Pill and the Life Creation Pill were both top-grade Spirit Pills for treating injuries. Although the effects were moderate on the Fire Ape, they significantly improved its condition.
