It could actually channel geomantic fortune, change heaven and earth, and in the span of decades, nurture a superior third-rank spiritual vein.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the array could persist long enough, sustained for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, the underground spiritual vein of Qingsu Island might even have a chance of advancing into a fourth-rank spiritual vein.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘If I can study and fully understand the principles of this array and publish a paper in the Immortal Alliance, perhaps I could win the Formation Dao Progress Award from the Artifacts Pavilion.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remembering this matter in his heart, Chen Beiwu began carefully examining the formation nexus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Buzz.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the spirit beast pouch at his waist shook, and a streak of golden light suddenly appeared on his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gulu?” Gold Egg looked around with a puzzled expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It discovered that the concentration of water-element spiritual energy here was very high, even slightly surpassing that of the Moon-in-Water Dwelling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘That’s normal. This is the core of the grand array, very close to the array eye where the Flood Dragon corpse lies.’ Chen Beiwu explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the Patrolling Formation Envoy was required to regularly inspect the array of Qingsu Island, his status was far above that of ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he was completely clear about the hidden secrets of the Sea-Converging Returning Island Array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Flood Dragon corpse that served as the array eye was certainly priceless, yet not enough to stir up greed in him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gulu?” Gold Egg tilted its head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the Great Hui, which was close to transforming into a Flood Dragon, the aura of the dragon within this array space was even denser, strong enough to stir a faint tremor and craving within its bloodline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Don’t worry, just cultivate. The spiritual energy you absorb and refine here doesn’t even amount to a drop in the ocean compared to the whole array.’ Chen Beiwu chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Gold Egg’s eyes lit up, and it began cultivating with the All Laws Converge, Heaven Book of the Divine Tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Chen Beiwu lowered his gaze, checking the array while pondering how he could obtain ownership of the Heaven-Eye Blackhawk from Yu Pan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quarter of an hour later, Chen Beiwu exhaled a breath of turbid air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To forcibly seize treasures through robbery or killing fellow sect members went against his cultivation principles. Using force to threaten would only leave him with a Foundation Establishment enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when it came to enemies, his principle was only one: to prevent trouble before it began, eliminating danger while it was still a sprout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After much consideration, Chen Beiwu realized that apart from enticing with benefits and making a trade, it seemed that Junior Sister Yu Pan had no other ending than death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Forget it. A twisted melon is never sweet.” Chen Beiwu shook his head, deciding instead to focus on tempting with benefits, proceeding gradually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, his current cultivation was still insufficient to suppress a second-rank Lesser Beast. If he could not win the Heaven-Eye Blackhawk’s willing submission, then even if he obtained ownership, it would be useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, the Heaven-Eye Blackhawk was among the second-rank Lesser Beasts with near unmatched battle power—any slight backlash would spell a great disaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By noon the next day, Chen Beiwu finished inspecting the entire Sea-Converging Returning Island Array. After confirming that the formation nexus had no problems, he reluctantly left with Gold Egg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Brother Chen.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Chen Beiwu appear, Yu Pan hurriedly greeted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Junior Sister Yu, how long have you been waiting for me?” Chen Beiwu asked in surprise, while suspicion also rose in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the other party, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, to actually wait here for him overnight—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that she had noticed something strange about him yesterday and had come here to probe?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not long. Master Lu has an important matter and wishes to invite you for a discussion.” Yu Pan spoke frankly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She herself was not in a hurry, but that did not mean Lu Lei and the others were not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of the thirty-six Sea-Converging Returning Island Arrays on Qingsu Island, twelve already had problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Chen Zi’ang showed diligence and checked one per day, in less than a week he would discover the abnormalities and report them to the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that point, all the Foundation Establishment cultivators of Qingsu Island would be arrested and held accountable by the sect—even if not killed, they would be flayed alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Chen Beiwu’s heart stirred, feeling something was off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had just met yesterday, yet Master Lu was already sending an invitation today. Even if he was the sect-appointed Patrolling Formation Envoy, this was somewhat unreasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he was only a small Qi Refining cultivator, and could not bring the other party progress in the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’ll trouble Junior Sister Yu to lead the way.” Chen Beiwu said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was business, why not mention it yesterday? Why insist on moving it to today?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to see exactly what scheme Master Lu was plotting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Chen Beiwu stepped into the private room, twelve beautiful female Qi Refining cultivators, with delicate faces, graceful figures, and elegant temperaments, began to dance enchantingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two bolder ones, carrying a faint fragrance, pressed close to him, hooking their arms around his, and led him forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Patrolling Envoy, please take a seat.” Lu Lei pulled out a chair for Chen Beiwu and then sat opposite him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Courtesy beneath others’ station always meant they had a request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Chen Beiwu sat calmly, his confidence growing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Glancing around the room, he noticed that Qingsu Island’s judicial inspector, Xiao Qing, was seated nearby, smiling with alluring charm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Pan also sat down on his left side. Chen Beiwu seemed to have entered a spider’s den, surrounded by enchanting beauties, with even the air carrying a faint fragrance of rouge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What purpose do the three of you have in finding me? You may as well speak directly.” Chen Beiwu said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Lu Lei waved his hand, signaling for the dancing female cultivators to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, only four people remained in the private room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Qing exchanged a glance with Lu Lei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, she pressed close, wrapping her arm around Chen Beiwu’s elbow, and said tenderly, “We have a matter we’d like to ask the Envoy to help mediate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All of you preside over the land reclamation and island-construction project of Qingsu Island, busy with affairs. It’s inevitable you’ll encounter some matters. Could it be that this has something to do with the Sea-Converging Returning Island Array?” Chen Beiwu probed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then it’s best not to talk about this. If you continue, I won’t be able to handle it.” Seeing the situation, Chen Beiwu tactfully refused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sea-Converging Returning Island Array concerned the sect’s future strategic planning. As a mere Patrolling Formation Envoy, he could not possibly bear such a heavy burden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Lei lightly coughed twice, breaking the silence, and then took out a jade box from his storage ring, opening it to reveal neatly arranged, sparkling spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sweeping his divine sense across, Chen Beiwu discovered that the jade box contained no less than fifteen thousand lower-grade spirit stones. Such a vast sum was enough to severely cripple the wealth of a Foundation Establishment family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is a token of goodwill from all the cultivators of Qingsu Island. If the Envoy likes, Qingsu Island can offer this every five years.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, Lu Lei looked directly at Chen Beiwu and spoke gently, “Of course, if Lord Patrolling Envoy wishes to focus on cultivation, we can handle these trifles ourselves, sparing you from worry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Forgive me, everyone.” Chen Beiwu swept his gaze around, speaking in a deep voice, “The sect has treated me with great kindness. This is not something I can decide.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he pushed the spirit stones back across the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Lei’s meaning had been obvious: if he accepted the spirit stones, he would have to pretend he saw nothing and devote himself solely to cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the atmosphere within the private room became tense, like drawn swords.\u003C\u002Fp>",1495,"2026-06-03T12:06:33.100Z",1,"novelbin.me","9adbc85e3800e3a64598dec4e05cb037e303a9e950905053b42bd32bae3c6ac0","beast-taming-cultivator-from-two-realms-chapter-131","beast-taming-cultivator-from-two-realms-chapter-129",316,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbeast-taming-cultivator-from-two-realms-cover.jpg"]
