His gaze then shifted to the handsome male cultivator before him, whose sword-like brows and starry eyes gave him an extraordinary bearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuankong County was neither too big nor too small, but the circle of young cultivators was fixed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Han Zheng had never heard of any prodigy in Yuankong County who had contracted a Golden Scale Fish. Could this person perhaps be a prodigy from an even higher level—the Fallen Dragon Manor?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fellow Daoist, how should I address you?” he asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Surname Chen,” Chen Beiwu replied, grabbing Iron Egg in one hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the resonance of their Companion Contract, he discovered that compared to fighting, Iron Egg much preferred satisfying its appetite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Looks like in future training, I can take a different approach—find opponents that Iron Egg can eat.’ Chen Beiwu thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Interest was the best teacher, capable of producing twice the result with half the effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the opponent was “delicious” enough, Iron Egg might not even need his commands, and would take the initiative to hunt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more hunts it experienced, the more its combat experience would naturally improve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Surname Chen!’ Han Zheng was slightly shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His guess was most likely correct—there was no Chen family of cultivators in Yuankong County.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fellow Daoist Chen, my Companion Beast has already fallen unconscious, so today’s sparring…” At this point, Han Zheng revealed a trace of embarrassment on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let the sparring end here,” Chen Beiwu said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you for your understanding, Fellow Daoist.” Han Zheng cupped his hands slightly, then turned and hurried away with his Thunder Needle Weasel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Companion Beast was tied to one’s future cultivation path. Even if Chen Beiwu’s origins were extraordinary, Han Zheng had no intention of continuing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he only sparred to earn Spirit Yuan to purchase resources, in hopes of helping his Thunder Needle Weasel break through its bottleneck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet today’s sparring had nearly shattered its Dao Heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gulu?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Han Zheng’s figure vanish, Iron Egg revealed a trace of regret in its eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Thunder Needle Weasel had tasted quite good—the moment it was swallowed, tiny electric sparks danced across its tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The numbing sensation at first bite, followed by the spicy and salty explosion in its belly, made its taste buds come alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for its Beast Tamer’s strong command, it really would have been reluctant to spit out such a unique delicacy, whose taste pulled at its tongue like countless hooks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the thought, a glistening drop of liquid slid down the corner of Iron Egg’s mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘This greedy little fellow!’ Chen Beiwu chuckled soundlessly, glanced at the time, then stored Iron Egg into his Spirit Beast Pouch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the right side of the Beast Taming Training Hall, at the Lingnan Teahouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Beiwu sat in a chair, browsing through the Immortal Alliance Official Website, checking if the long-sold-out Moon Dew and Green Vine Branch had been restocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Moon Dew】: Sold out, price: 1000 Spirit Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Green Vine Branch】: Sold out, price: 1200 Spirit Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the differences in prices and Spirit Stone values between the two realms, the Moon Dew at the Black Rock Mountain Auction had been sold at 2800 lower-grade Spirit Stones—a price far higher than that on the Immortal Alliance Official Website.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the Official Website also had a drawback. When supplies were scarce, it would impose purchase limits, causing the prices in offline markets and second-hand markets to skyrocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【High price purchase of Moon Dew and Green Vine Branch. Contact if interested, serious offers only】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After posting this request on the second-hand market of the Ten Thousand Spirits app, Chen Beiwu glanced at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was still five minutes before 3 p.m.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, a young man with dark skin and youthful looks walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you Fellow Daoist Chen?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, that’s me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Chen Beiwu answered, the other immediately took out a jade bottle from his storage pouch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is genuine Frostjade Queen Bee Honey, pure and without any additives—only 200 Spirit Yuan per jin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Chen Beiwu raised his head and looked at him. “May I test it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course! Test it however you like. If the quality’s questionable, I’ll eat the bottle on the spot.” The young man spoke confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening the jade bottle, a layer of honey crystal had formed inside. Lowering his head slightly, Chen Beiwu caught a distinct chill and a pine-needle fragrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How about it? My family’s Queen Bee Honey is absolutely top quality!” the young man seized the chance to promote: “Right now, I’ve got five jin in stock. If Fellow Daoist Chen takes them all, I’ll give you a flat price—900 Spirit Yuan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Beiwu’s eyes narrowed slightly as he infused his spiritual sense into the jade bottle, tapping it twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, the honey inside rippled, releasing strands of thick, sticky liquid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mixing Frostjade Honey with Queen Bee Honey—Fellow Daoist truly knows how to do business.” Chen Beiwu’s voice was cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fellow Daoist, you jest! That was meant as a sample for someone else, I must have brought the wrong bottle. Let me exchange it for you now.” The young man slapped his forehead, reaching to take the jade bottle back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Beiwu seized his right hand and said calmly, “Eat it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man’s pupils contracted, his face stiffened with an awkward smile, and he feigned ignorance: “What are you talking about, customer?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Didn’t you just say that if the quality was questionable, you’d eat the bottle on the spot?” Chen Beiwu paused slightly, his gaze locking onto him. “Now I want to see you eat it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing Chen Beiwu’s pressure, cold sweat beaded on the young man’s forehead, and he couldn’t help but swallow nervously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was going on? The other clearly appeared to be just a Qi Refining cultivator like himself—how had he seen through it so easily?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, as time passed, ordinary Frostjade Honey would gradually be assimilated by Queen Bee Honey, adopting its properties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then, even Foundation Establishment cultivators would struggle to tell the difference, only thinking that batch of Queen Bee Honey was simply of lower quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this person to discern it at a glance—could it be he was a ranked Alchemist?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not going to eat?” Chen Beiwu pulled out his phone and began dialing the Law Enforcement Bureau of the Immortal Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Selling Yellow-Tailed Dendrobium was different from selling Queen Bee Honey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary Yellow-Tailed Dendrobium was cheap. But if the proportion of Dragon Head Dendrobium mixed in exceeded a certain percentage—8% for high-quality, 60% for Dragon Head grade—the gift box’s value skyrocketed, sometimes becoming priceless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, even though the gift boxes Chen Beiwu sold via livestream contained nearly 10% Dragon Head Dendrobium—far higher than market average—the name still remained Yellow-Tailed Dendrobium Gift Box, sold at the low price of 9.9.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Dragon Head Dendrobium gift boxes, selling them directly was too much of a loss. At 30 Spirit Yuan per jin, it was far less profitable than bundling with ordinary Yellow-Tailed Dendrobium. Almost no merchants in the market were willing to sell this way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Queen Bee Honey was different—it was secreted directly by the Frostjade Queen Bee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its properties were distinct from ordinary Frostjade Honey: upon contact with air, it crystallized; when heated, it released a pine-needle fragrance; when consumed, it could dispel Fire Toxin and was an excellent medicinal ingredient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hence, its selling price was extremely high, far above ordinary Frostjade Honey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To seek huge profits, unscrupulous merchants would often mix ordinary Frostjade Honey into Queen Bee Honey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll eat it.” Gritting his teeth, the young man forcefully swallowed the jade bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Chen Beiwu stood, preparing to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait, earlier I failed to recognize Mount Tai.” The young man hurriedly called out, then pulled two more jade bottles from his storage pouch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This batch of Queen Bee Honey is absolutely genuine. I hope Fellow Daoist can forgive me.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1358,"2026-06-03T12:06:33.100Z",1,"novelbin.me","6a0f8476220ef1e7d27d9a4dcbd6464cb03ab97a3af986c2ed4227e5a19372f7","beast-taming-cultivator-from-two-realms-chapter-104","beast-taming-cultivator-from-two-realms-chapter-102",316,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-cultivator-from-two-realms-cover.jpg"]
