Beast Taming Tower

Chapter 2541 Sunset Island, Lightning-Avoiding Immortal Pearl

Upon hearing this, Jin Hui was at a loss for words.

After a long while, he suddenly realized what was going on.

Looking at the hairpin, one felt a deep sense of respect.

"As expected of the patriarch of my Scented Sky Whale clan. Her vision far surpasses mine!"

"Currently, chaos has arisen in the Boundless Sea. Only a powerful figure like our clan leader can lead our Scented Sky Whale clan to survive in the Boundless Sea!"

"From now on, let the clan chief handle all matters."

"I am too old to remain in the position of Grand Elder."

"The Sperm Whale Clan should be led by younger generations to continue its development!"

After a moment of reflection, Jin Hui quickly caught up with the departing Jin Chai.

Chen Xuan was unaware that the sea creatures were now terrified of him.

Even the Sperm Whale Clan did not send any truly powerful individuals to hunt him down.

At this moment, Chen Xuan and Chen Que carefully arrived at the outer sea and quickly approached Luoxia Island.

Although Luoxia Island is not large in area, it serves as an important transportation hub for accessing both the inner and outer seas.

However, the protective array on it is extremely terrifying.

Even from a great distance, Chen Xuan could clearly sense that if the protective array on Luoxia Island were to be activated directly, a late-stage Golden Immortal like himself would be instantly blasted into nothingness.

"The protective array on Luoxia Island appears to be an extremely powerful ancient array. The power of such an array is indeed terrifying!"

"Once it's activated, even a demon beast at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level would find it difficult to breach Sunset Island!"

"Hehe, in that case, I'll take a break on Sunset Island for now."

Chen Xuan smiled slightly, and with a thought, he put Chen Que into the Immortal Beast Tower. He then took out the Heavenly Demon Mask, changed his appearance and aura, and swaggered towards Luoxia Island.

On Luoxia Island, there are naturally powerful individuals under the command of the island lord who guard and inspect the island.

However, the investigation of a late-stage Golden Immortal like Chen Xuan was not very strict.

After taking out an identity token that Fairy Xiuwen had given him, Chen Xuan easily entered Luoxia Island.

At this moment, Chen Xuan was not in a hurry to contact Chen Quan.

Instead, they strolled around Sunset Island.

Two days later, after confirming that no one was following him, Chen Xuan had a sudden thought and contacted Chen Quan.

About half an hour later, Chen Quan and Zhu Pin'er appeared at Chen Xuan's side at the same time.

Zhu Pin'er and Chen Quan were overjoyed to see Chen Xuan return safely.

"Brother Chen, you're finally back! We thought it would be a while before you could return safely!" Zhu Pin'er said excitedly.

"Master, I was so worried about you," Chen Quan said.

"Haha, I'll definitely return safely. However, there are some things that can't be said here. Let's find a place to stay first," Chen Xuan said with a smile.

"Hehe, Brother Chen, do you think we don't know? The events that have happened on Xiling Island recently have spread throughout the entire outer sea."

Zhu Pin'er looked at Chen Xuan and teased him with a smile.

Chen Xuan looked astonished.

Soon, he looked at Zhu Pin'er with curiosity.

Zhu Pin'er smiled innocently and said, "Brother Chen, there are several versions of the story of the great battle on Xiling Island. It is said that a powerful expert at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, who was furious about the monsters running rampant in the Boundless Sea, ventured into Xiling Island alone and wreaked havoc."

"Not only did he kill several geniuses of the sea race, but he also frightened away a powerful expert at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm from the sea race!"

"Besides that, there's another version of the story. It says that a half-step Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm expert single-handedly destroyed the protective array of Xiling Island, killed three geniuses of the sea race, frightened away a Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm expert, and slaughtered countless Golden Immortal realm experts of the sea race. He caused chaos throughout the entire Xiling Island. He truly brought honor to us outer sea cultivators!"

……

Hearing Zhu Pin'er and Chen Quan's explanation, Chen Xuan's expression became extremely strange.

He hadn't expected that the commotion he caused in the Boundless Sea would reach Luoxia Island so quickly.

Upon careful consideration, Chen Xuan instantly understood.

"Although I kept my whereabouts secret on Xiling Island, the fact that so many powerful sea creatures mobilized together attracted the attention of many others!"

"In addition, there was the battle between me, Jin Feng, Jin Ling, and Young Master Hai Ling. I believe it won't be difficult for many people to know about this!"

"However, the speed at which this news spread was truly astounding. It completely exceeded my expectations!"

"In that case, if I continue on my way now, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble!"

"It would be better to take a step back and find a place to retreat to Luoxia Island for a while before making any further decisions!"

After pondering for a while, Chen Xuan made a decision.

Legend has it that Chen Xuan was very powerful on Xiling Island.

This has brought honor to countless true immortals in the outer seas.

But only Chen Xuan knew that he had actually paid a huge price.

Along the way, he was only focused on traveling and avoiding the pursuit of the sea creatures.

There was no time to heal.

This caused his injuries to worsen.

Chen Xuan planned to take this opportunity to go into seclusion and heal his injuries.

At the very least, before leaving Sunset Island, I need to restore my strength to its peak.

“Even if I return to the Southern Celestial Realm, I might not be safe. After all, I was put on a kill list by Crimson City back then!”

"If my whereabouts are exposed in the Southern Immortal Realm, I'm afraid it will attract countless powerful figures from Crimson City to hunt me down!"

"This is also a very dangerous thing for me!"

Chen Xuan muttered something under his breath.

Soon, he left with Chen Quan and Zhu Pin'er.

Two hours later, Chen Xuan rented a decent cave dwelling on Luoxia Island and moved in with Zhu Pin'er.

For safety's sake, Chen Xuan set up the Dragon Sealing Formation he carried with him in his cave.

He gave Zhu Pin'er some pills for cultivation, and after recounting his experiences on Xiling Island in detail, he began his secluded cultivation.

Wow!

With a casual wave of his hand, Chen Xuan activated the protective array in the secret chamber instantly.

Chen Xuan left Chen Quan behind to manage his cave dwelling, but then entered the Immortal Beast Tower.

Soon, Chen Xuan appeared beside the cold pool.

At this moment, Chen Xuan couldn't care less about anything else and immediately activated his divine sense to carefully examine his physical condition.

It was discovered that the battle on Xiling Island had left him seriously injured.

After so much time has passed, my internal injuries have not only failed to heal, but have instead shown signs of worsening.

Chen Xuan dared not be careless.

He quickly took out the Compound Healing Pill and began refining it using the Free and Unfettered Sword Technique.

Only after Chen Xuan refined two bottles of compound healing pills in one go did his injuries completely heal.

But Chen Xuan was still uneasy.

He activated his divine sense and patiently examined his physical condition.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was completely free of injury, and even that his internal injuries had healed completely.

"The injuries inside my body have been completely healed."

"Next, I should sort out my spoils."

"Hehe, putting aside everything else, just the sachets inside Jin Ling and Jin Feng's bodies are enough for me to refine a lot of high-quality calming incense."

Chen Xuan gave a cold laugh.

He instantly appeared in front of Jin Ling and Jin Feng's main bodies.

After activating the Dragon-Seeking Sword and quickly extracting the demon cores and sachets from the two bodies, Chen Xuan then threw their corpses directly to the Gold-Eating Insect Swarm.

As for the corpse of Prince Hailing, Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment and then tossed it to the Iron-Tailed Scorpion army.

Over the years, under his tireless training, the strength of the Irontail Scorpion army has greatly improved.

Among them, many of the Iron-Tailed Scorpions had reached the level of a half-step Golden Immortal.

He is only one step away from the true Golden Immortal realm.

Some of them even seemed poised to break through to the Golden Immortal realm at any moment.

As for the gold-devouring insect swarm, it's also quite good.

The number of newly cultivated Golden Immortal-level Gold-Devouring Insects is also increasing.

"The Gold-Eating Insect swarm and the Iron-Tailed Scorpion army, although their cultivation levels are not very high, have a numerical advantage!"

"At certain times, these two armies of demonic beasts can play a very important role!"

"I need to continue to train them well in the future!"

Chen Xuan sighed.

With a flick of his wrist, he took out dozens of storage bags.

These storage bags were spoils of war obtained by Chen Xuan and Chen Xie, along with other demonic beasts, after they killed ordinary sea monsters.

Chen Xuan planned to first take stock of the spoils in these storage bags.

Wow!

With a flick of his finger, an incomparably pure immortal power swiftly landed on all the storage bags.

Soon, the rare and precious materials inside fell to the ground at lightning speed.

After spending a long time tidying up, Chen Xuan looked even more disappointed.

There was nothing in these guys' storage bags that he would even look at.

Only the immortal stones, demon cores, and immortal medicines are still barely usable.

"Alas, the lower one's cultivation level, the fewer cultivation resources one possesses. This situation is even more pronounced among the sea races!"

Chen Xuan sighed.

After putting away the things that were useful to him, he took out six storage bags.

These six storage bags were spoils of war that Chen Xuan seized when he killed the Scarface Hunting Team.

He had been too busy to open the storage bags during this time.

Taking this opportunity, Chen Xuan decided to take a good look at what was in these guys' storage bags.

Wow!

With a flick of his finger, the contents of the six storage bags fell to the ground.

To Chen Xuan's surprise, the quality of the items in the Scarface Hunting Team's storage bags was significantly higher than that of the items in the storage bags of the sea race's powerful members.

Furthermore, Chen Xuan also found a number of top-grade immortal stones, more than a dozen rare immortal mines, and nearly a hundred demon cores of demonic beasts at the half-step Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

These things alone made Chen Xuan a windfall.

"Haha, these hunters' storage bags are much better than those of these sea creature experts!"

Chen Xuan laughed heartily.

Put away everything that is useful to you.

In addition to the items mentioned above, Chen Xuan also found several cultivation insights left behind by powerful individuals who had attempted to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in these guys' storage bags.

This item was also of great use to Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan planned to study it carefully later.

Taking this opportunity, Chen Xuan spent another half hour carefully sifting through the remaining items.

Having confirmed that almost nothing was missing from the remaining items, Chen Xuan was about to throw the things he didn't need into his storage bag when a shiny round bead suddenly caught his attention.

"This is……"

Chen Xuan looked on with curiosity.

With a casual flick of his wrist, the round bead swiftly fell into Chen Xuan's hand.

Although the surface of this bead looks shiny.

Yet, an incredibly pure earth-attribute power emanated from it.

After observing it carefully for a while, Chen Xuan discovered that several heavenly runes had been carved on the surface of the bead.

With Chen Xuan's mastery of the Heavenly Runes, he instantly recognized the meaning of these Heavenly Runes.

"A lightning-repelling immortal pearl? Could this be the rare and precious material used to withstand lightning tribulations during the ancient True Immortal Realm?"

Chen Xuan's eyes lit up.

I wish I could just find a place and test the power of the Lightning-Avoiding Pearl right away.
