Chapter 166: Fate Backlash, Cute Little Tiger

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"It's just a small matter. Don't worry about it."

Su Xian'er's talent was extraordinary, and she possessed a great amount of fate. Even though she was affected to a certain extent, it was nearly impossible to snatch her fate.

In the end, the other party's methods were too weak.

The person was just using Su Xian'er's blood relatives as a medium to interfere with and snatch her fate.

Chu Xuan waved his hand, and a ball of dense light flew out from the Fate Suppressing Dao Cauldron and entered Su Xian'er's body, suppressing her fate and blocking external interference.

Then, he took out the good luck charm, and another ray of light rushed into Su Xian'er's body.

The other party actually intended to interfere with his maidservant's fate. This was blatant provocation.

How could he not retaliate?

Since the other party wanted to mess with fate, then Chu Xuan would make them suffer the backlash of fate!

The good luck charm was a fate treasure, and it also had its own means of attack.

After Chu Xuan finished, he said, "That should settle it. It was probably done by someone from the Central Region."

Su Xian'er felt an unprecedented sense of safety and stability. That uneasy feeling, as if she was about to lose something, no longer existed.

Hearing this, her pretty face changed, and she gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Damn it! I've already escaped for so long, yet they still won't let me go? Was it the Su clan, or that ugly freak?"

"They're both related."

Chu Xuan asked curiously, "Which faction in the Central Region is that ugly freak from?"

He had never bothered to ask in detail which faction Su Xian'er's fiancé was from.

He was originally the fiancé of the first daughter of the Su family, but because he was ugly, Su Xian'er's sister used some tricks to have Su Xian'er replace her as his marriage partner.

The other party probably did not object because he saw Su Xian'er's beauty.

However, Su Xian'er thought that he was ugly and ran away.

"He's from the Great Qian Palace. Someone told me that he's the cousin of the Holy Son of the Great Qian Palace," Su Xian'er said hatefully.

Great Qian Palace?

Chu Xuan immediately linked that name with the Great Qian Dynasty. It seemed that the force behind the Great Qian Dynasty was the Great Qian Palace.

If this was the case, then the human Divine realm expert who wanted to lure the demons into invading back then was from the Great Qian Palace.

The Great Qian Palace was the number one force in the Central Region.

"Alright, cultivate hard. Once you're strong enough, you can just crush the Great Qian Palace."

Chu Xuan had a premonition that the Holy Son of the Great Qian Palace was most likely the son of fate of the Central Region.

"It's not that easy. It's rumored that the Great Qian Palace has a Divine realm patriarch."

Su Xian'er felt that it was unrealistic for her to crush the Great Qian Palace.

"It's just a Divine realm cultivator. It's not out of your reach," Chu Xuan smiled and said.

"Sir, what's your cultivation realm?" Su Xian'er asked curiously.

From his tone, it seemed that he did not even care about the Divine realm.

Could it be that Sir had reached the Divine realm?

"It's not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!"

Chu Xuan smiled and said.

Su Xian'er went back to continue cultivating.

Far away in the Central Region.

A young man with a collapsed nose, crooked mouth, and an asymmetrical pair of eyes suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Following which, blood flowed out of his seven orifices, and the ball in his hand exploded with a bang!

The spiritual power in his entire body surged uncontrollably, as if it would explode at any moment!

His mental will was also weakening.

"Ah!" The ugly young man screamed.

An old man appeared and stabilized his injuries, but his expression changed greatly. He had suffered a backlash!

What was even more terrifying was that the fate treasure artifact had exploded!

That was one of the Su family's supreme treasures.

Although it was only a treasure artifact, it was a fate treasure artifact. Anything related to fate was a supreme treasure because it could suppress fate!

"What's going on? Why did you suffer a backlash?"

Patriarch Su also rushed over. His expression was extremely grave and ugly.

The fate treasure had actually shattered!

The Su clan had lost their fate suppression artifact! Without it, if they encountered a calamity, their losses would increase exponentially.

"How would I know?" The ugly youth howled miserably.

"I'll bring him back to the Great Qian Palace to treat his injuries."

The old man picked up the ugly youth and left. At the end, he said, "Patriarch Su's daughter must have had an extraordinary opportunity!"

Patriarch Su head said with a gloomy face, "Our fate artifact has been destroyed. The Great Qian Palace must compensate us. Otherwise, the Su clan will reconsider our options!"

The old man paused. "We will report this to the Holy Son."

After that, the old man left.

Several elders of the Su family also rushed over. When they saw the broken fate artifact on the ground, their facial expressions all changed.

"Great, f*cking great! The fate artifact is broken!"

One of the clan elders was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot. He said angrily, "Why did you lend them the fate artifact to snatch that girl's fate and force her to come back? How are you going to fix things now?"

"Not only is the fate artifact broken, but your relationship with that girl has worsened."

"As the clan patriarch, you are becoming more and more incompetent. You even lost the clan's heirloom fate artifact."

After that, the clan elder left angrily.

Chu Xuan and Su Xian'er were not aware of what had taken place in the Su clan's territory in the Central Region.

However, Chu Xuan knew that those who had tried to interfere with Su Xian'er's fate would definitely not have an easy time.

Would the backlash of fate lead to repeated bad luck?

They might even die because of it!

Half a month had passed since the incident where Su Xian'er's fate had been messed with.

Finally, on this day, the Dao-seeking Mirror found a new Dao realm expert.

The white dot on the surface of the mirror gradually transformed into the shape of a tiger.

Chu Xuan was stunned. This time, he had found a non-human Dao realm expert?

A demon tiger?

He moved a wisp of the tiger's Dao aura into the Origin Dao Crystal. Chu Xuan did not immediately give the other party access to the Great Dao Communication Group.

Instead, he first contacted the other party to get to know it.

Somewhere, far away on a mountain, there was a colorful tiger.

Even though it was only lying there and had restrained its aura, one could still sense its fierce and domineering temperament.

It looked majestic.

However, when it raised its chubby head, it gave off a silly feeling.

Roar!

Suddenly, the tiger woke up from its sleep and let out a roar.

"Who is it?"

Hu Tai swept his eyes across his surroundings, revealing the full extent of his tiger might. His tiger claws were also exposed, gleaming with a cold light.

Just now, someone had actually absorbed a wisp of its Dao aura.

At this moment, he felt that his Dao aura had established a connection with something.

However, no matter how hard he searched, he still could not find out where that thing was or what it was.

He had encountered an expert!

However, Hu Tai did not panic. He continued to lie on the ground, not getting up.

'I, Hu Tai, am just that brave!'

"Little Tiger?"

Suddenly, he received a message transmission, which appeared within the Dao aura.

Hu Tai looked at the message transmission. When he saw what it said, he was so angry that he began to roar.

"I, Hu Tai, am the Patriarch of the Heavenly Tiger tribe, a peerless overlord who has reached the sixteenth-level of the Dao realm. Who are you? Why are you hiding from me? Show yourself!"

"Heh heh, so you're the Little Tiger of the Heavenly Tiger tribe. Being able to join the Great Dao Communication Group is also an opportunity for you."

Roar!

Hu Tai slammed its claws on the ground angrily.

'How hateful! How dare you look down on me and call me a little tiger!'

'Damn it!'

No one had dared to call him a little tiger for god knows how many years!

"Come out now! I'm going to tear you apart!"

"What a violent little tiger, how honest and cute!"

F*ck!

Hu Tai roared, his paws continuously slammed the ground. His tiger eyes widened, and his killing intent was awe-inspiring!

Chapter 167: Cowering And Acting Cute

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Xuan was not the least bit flustered by Hu Tai's threat.

It seems that Hu Tai was the Heavenly Tiger tribe's ancestor, and an expert at the sixteenth level of the Dao realm.

He observed a moment of silence for Ying Kong.

He was afraid that Ying Kong might forever be the weakest member of the Great Dao Communication Group.

Ignoring Hu Tai's roars, he added him into the Great Dao Communication Group.

He immediately sent a message to announce Hu Tai's arrival.

"Hu Tai, from the demon race's Heavenly Tiger tribe has been lucky enough to enter the Great Dao Communication Group. Let's get to know each other."

He then introduced Hu Tai's cultivation realm.

Ying Kong watched silently as tears welled up in his heart. A new group friend had arrived, but he was still the weakest.

It was too sad!

Hu Tai entered the Great Dao Communication Group and continued to roar. He even fired off insults.

"What Great Dao Communication Group? Who do you think you are? Why are you hiding yourselves? How dare you use the name Great Dao? If you have the guts, come out and I'll tear you apart!"

The corners of Chu Xuan's mouth twitched. This tiger was a hot-tempered fool.

He hoped that he would not be beaten to death.

He did not know where the Dao realm experts were hiding, but the others might be able to find Hu Tai, right?

Hu Tai's sixteenth-level Dao realm cultivation was the third from the bottomamong the Great Dao Communication Group.

The first from the bottom was undoubtedly Chu Xuan.

He was not even in the Dao realm.

"Hu Tai? You little irritable tiger, haven't you been beaten to death yet?"

The first to speak was Piao Ruoyun, the eldest disciple of Hong Yuanchu.

It was a woman.

Judging from her tone, she seemed to know Hu Tai.

Hu Tai was furious. His claws continued to pound on the mountaintop. As his claws continued to pound, the mountain became shorter and shorter.

Someone actually called him Little Tiger again. It seemed like he had slept for too long. Everyone had forgotten how mighty he was.

"Roar! You're courting death! State your name. Lord Tiger will tear you apart!"

"Yo, you little tiger, you're as irritable as ever."

Piao Ruoyun was in a good mood and said, "My name is Piao Ruoyun. Do you remember me?"

Piao Ruoyun?

Who was that?

Her name looked a little familiar.

Hu Tai was about to continue spitting insults when he suddenly quivered and stood up subconsciously.

His claws stopped hitting the mountain.

His pair of tiger eyes widened.

Gulp!

An ancient memory gradually appeared.

A cold human woman held his tail and said with a smile, "Little Tiger, don't be so fierce, or else I'll pull out your skin."

Her tender white fingers poked its belly. "Look at your silly and chubby appearance. It's very cute."

He was scared! He was scared!

Hu Tai almost broke out in a cold sweat. It was actually that terrifying woman?

"I'm not Hu Tai. I'm from the Fox clan. I'm a little fox, not a little tiger!"

Hu Tai hurriedly changed his identity.

"Hu Tai, quickly tell me where you are. I'll go look for you. I don't know how many years it has been since I last saw you. I miss you a little," Piao Ruoyun continued.

"I'm not Hu Tai. You've mistaken me for a tiger."

Hu Tai cowered and did not dare to roar anymore.

Hong Yuanchu asked, "Is that the little tiger that you caught back then and raised as a pet?"

"Yes, Master. It's that silly, very irritable little tiger," Piao Ruoyun replied.

Chu Xuan watched, and silently mourned for Hu Tai.

Moreover, Hong Yuanchu and Piao Ruoyun did not seem to be in the same place.

On second thought, it made sense. Piao Ruoyun was strong enough to leave her master's side.

After all, it was impossible for them to stay together forever.

"Back then, when I looked at your little tiger. It was violent and silly, and it had great luck.To be able to enter Brother Chu's Great Dao Communication, as expected, its luck is very good."

Hong Yuanchu sighed and did not speak again.

"Of course, it had a lot of luck. Were it not for the fact that it had a lot of luck, given its violent and simple character, it would have been beaten to death long ago."

Piao Ruoyun was very happy. She kept asking in the group where Hu Tai was.

Hu Tai was extremely flustered.

Even that terrifying big boss was in the Great Dao Communication Group?

The person who called him Little Tiger just now was an existence on the same level as that Big Boss?

'I'm so scared!'

Hu Tai felt that, at this moment, he had to change his tune.

For him to be able to live until now and cultivate to the sixteenth level of the Dao realm, apart from good fortune and talent, knowing when to back down was also key.

Thinking back, in order to survive, he had often acted cute.

"Senior, Little Tiger offended you just now. Please forgive me, Senior!"

Furthermore, he had condensed his appearance with Dao essence, and his silly appearance was acting cute!

Chu Xuan was speechless.

Was this the ancestor of the Heavenly Tiger tribe?

He was acting cute!

When he was weak, he probably acted cute a lot.

"I won't take it up with a little tiger like you."

Chu Xuan replied, and then remained silent. He had to play the role of a big shot properly.

He would leave the juniors to chat in the Great Dao Communication Group.

Piao Ruoyun was still asking about Hu Tai's location. Wu Fangcun and Xi Xuan also joined in. Finally, Ying Kong carefully joined in the conversation.

He was the trash of the group. Any one of them could easily crush him, so he was extra cautious and careful.

He was afraid that if he said something wrong, someone would come looking for him and kill him.

In the Great Dao Communication Group, he seemed to have returned to the time when he was weak. He was in a place where the strong surrounded him. He was in a precarious situation.

"Brother Hu, my name is Ying Kong!"

Hu Tai's eyes lit up. So he was not the weakest one here!

There was still someone who was weaker than him.

After the initial panic, he calmed down. Piao Ruoyun could not find his position through the Great Dao Communication Group.

Therefore, he was safe.

"Alright, Little Brother Ying. In the future, Brother Hu will protect you. If you have any questions, feel free to look for Brother Hu!"

Hu Tai was very happy.

The Great Dao Communication Group became more lively when Hu Tai joined.

Hu Tai was not only irritable, he was simple-minded. At critical moments, he was very sincere and talkative.

He was the one who spoke the most in the group.

Perhaps it was because he was curious about the Great Dao Communication Group, or perhaps he had been bored for too long, so now that he had found something new, he was filled with interest.

Chu Xuan had been paying attention to the information being discussed in the Great Dao Communication. The three Daoyuan realm elders would occasionally say a few words.

Whenever that happened, Hu Tai would act cute to curry favor with the big shots.

After a few days of observation, Chu Xuan realized that Hu Tai had a violent personality and was extremely simple-minded.

Even so, he had a very excellent specialty…

Which was that he knew when to back down and act cute!

Perhaps it was precisely because he knew when to back down and act cute that he was able to live until now and become a Dao realm expert.

As the number of Dao realm experts in the Great Dao Communication Group increased, and the frequency of their conversations increased, the Dao aura channeled into the Origin Dao Crystal also increased.

The Dao aura that spread out from the Origin Dao Crystal into the pocket dimension became even more dense.

After all, when chatting in the Great Dao Communication Group, one needed to manifest one's Dao aura, and use it to send messages.

Chu Xuan kept up his efforts and continued to use the Dao-seeking Mirror to search for Dao realm experts every day.

Over the course of a long period, he had discovered two Dao realm experts. One was Ying Kong, who was at the bottom of the group.

The other was Hu Tai.

Up until now, he had yet to find any treasures or treasured lands related to the Great Dao.

Treasures or treasured lands related to the Great Dao were extremely rare in the nine zones. Even if they existed, it was most likely in the Desolate Ancient Zone.

A month later, while Chu Xuan was using the Dao-seeking mirror to search for Dao realm experts, the system's reward suddenly arrived.

"Your disciple, Wang Luo, encountered a strong enemy and escaped into an ancient forbidden land in the Northern Region. He obtained an emperor-level fate artifact. You have been rewarded with a Great Dao epiphany."

Chapter 168: The Strange Tiger

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Eh?

Chu Xuan was stunned. Wang Luo was being hunted down?

The power he had left behind for Wang Luo had not been activated, so his disciple should not have encountered a fatal crisis. Moreover, Wang Luo was very stubborn. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would never rely on the life-saving means Chu Xuan had left behind for him.

He had entered an ancient forbidden land in the Northern region and had obtained an emperor-level fate artifact?

As expected of a son of fate. He had indeed met with misfortune and turned it into luck.

Chu Xuan did not check on Wang Luo's situation. To a son of fate, danger meant opportunity.

It was not so easy for him to die.

This time, the system's reward was an epiphany on the Dao of fate.

The Dao of fate was unpredictable and mysterious. It was one of the most difficult Daos to cultivate and to comprehend.

Chu Xuan was very excited. Undergoing an epiphany on the Dao of fate meant that he would obtain enlightenment and insights into the Dao of fate. He would be able to better use the good luck charm and the Fate Suppressing Dao Cauldron. He might even be able to fully unleash their power.

He chose to receive the system reward.

In an instant, Chu Xuan entered a mysterious trance-like state. It was as if he was on a journey through the Great Dao again.

This was the mysterious state of epiphany.

What was fate?

It was so mysterious that it was impossible to describe it accurately.

After an unknown amount of time, Chu Xuan woke up from the state of epiphany.

At this moment, he had gained an understanding of the mysteries of fate from the epiphany.

Mysterious and dense spiritual energy surrounded his body.

It seemed to be able to control everything.

This was the Dao of fate.

Chu Xuan sighed. The Dao of fate was too mysterious and powerful.

If he cultivated the Dao of fate, he would be able to avoid countless dangers.

Wherever he was, there would be opportunities.

If he encountered danger, he would suddenly gain the help of powerful people.

There was no need to kill people personally!

It was an extremely terrifying and mysterious Dao.

Chu Xuan could only be considered to have entered the starting point of the Dao of fate. He could not be considered to have reached the great success stage, nor could he be considered to be in control of the Dao of fate.

No wonder it was not easy for the children of fate to die. All of them would turn misfortune into luck, and they could easily obtain opportunities.

There were only a few children of fate under him at this moment, and only three of them were out adventuring. The frequency of them triggering the system's rewards was not high enough.

He had to take in a few more children of fate as disciples.

Chu Xuan felt a little regretful. He should have taken in Xiao Liang as a disciple back then.

He had been out exploring for a long time, so he would have encountered a lot of opportunities that probably would have triggered the system's rewards.

Ding Yue had brought the spirit of the earth vein into the vast mountains. Hopefully he would discover something there and trigger another system reward.

Chu Xuan took out the Myriad Heavenly Mirror and injected his spiritual power into it, then began to connect the various zones at random.

Recently, in order to search for Dao realm experts, he had been focusing on using the Dao-seeking Mirror, so the frequency at which he used the Myriad Heavenly Mirror had decreased.

He had to increase the number of times he used it.

What if it connected him to a child of fate?

Whoosh!

Waves appeared on the screen.

Chu Xuan closed the Myriad Heavenly Mirror connection and continued to inject his spiritual power into it.

He had connected to the turbulent sea many times, but each time, he failed to gain anything. All he saw there was a sea with turbulent waves.

Chu Xuan was not sure where the turbulent sea was in the nine zones.

Perhaps it was the sea that divided the regions.

The second time, it connected to a valley.

Other than a few small demonic beasts, there was nothing special here.

Chu Xuan continued to connect the third time.

This time, a different scene appeared. It was a bare hill.

On the hill, there was a colorful tiger.

The tiger on the hill was very similar to a Manchurian Tiger from his previous life, but it was bigger.

No matter how one looked at it, it was a big cat.

Seeing the tiger, Chu Xuan could not help but think of Hu Tai in the Great Dao Communication Group, the ancestor of the Heavenly Tiger tribe, and how it would act cute.

The tiger lying on the bare mountain narrowed its eyes. It was weak, as if it had encountered some kind of setback and had lost its will to fight.

Was this a tiger that had chosen to give up on life?

Chu Xuan realized that this tiger was not an ordinary demonic beast. From its eyes, one could sense its human-like intelligence.

Demon race?

The first thing Chu Xuan thought of was the demon race. It might be a demon with intelligence and the ability to transform.

Most demonic beasts had a tiny sliver of the bloodline of the demon race. However, those could not be called members of the demon race. They could only be considered demonic beasts.

This was because demonic beasts retained their innate beastial characteristics. They still behaved like beasts, so they belonged to the category of beasts.

The demon race, on the other hand, had intelligence. They knew how to cultivate, refine weapons, and learn.

Most importantly, they could transform into human form.

This was the difference between the demon race and demonic beasts.

The monster race was one of the three great races of the nine zones. Their strength was no weaker than the demon race.

Moreover, the monster race was born with the ability to control monster beasts. Every time there was a big battle, they would use monster beasts as their vanguard to weaken the enemy's strength.

In history, the human, demon, and monster races had fought against each other many times.

The tiger on this mountaintop was a member of the monster race. However, the other party did not take human form, but kept his beast form.

Had the Myriad Heavenly Mirror connected him to the monster race's zone?

Chu Xuan could not help but think of Mo Luantian. The Demon Buddha had given him generous system rewards.

Since he had taken in a demon race disciple, it was not a big deal to take in a monster race one.

Of course, the prerequisite was that this tiger had to be a child of fate.

Heaven's Secrets Origin probing technique!

Chu Xuan immediately probed the origins of this tiger on the mountaintop.

"Hu Tianya, the former young master of the Heavenly Tiger tribe, the dominant race of the monster race. Due to his laziness and unwillingness to transform, he often maintained his beast form and was spurned. His beastial nature did not change and he was not educated. He took the position of young master of the Heavenly Tiger tribe, but then lost it…"

"Due to the loss of his position as the Heavenly Tiger tribe's young master, his fiancée, the princess of the Azure Dragon tribe, parted ways with him. In grief and anger, he left the Heavenly Tiger tribe to wander… He is the fated son of the Heavenly Tiger tribe."

Chu Xuan was stunned. He had met the fated son of the Heavenly Tiger tribe just like that?

Hu Tai's tribe?

Looking at the information detailed in the Heaven's Secrets Origin probing technique, Chu Xuan was speechless. This Hu Tianya was a weirdo.

How could a monster race member not transform?

In the end, as the Heavenly Tiger tribe's young master, Hu Tianya liked his beast body and did not like to transform into a human.

Because of this, he was angrily reprimanded. Others felt that he had not been enlightened. How was he different from a demonic beast?

Was he not a disgrace to the Heavenly Tiger tribe?

What was even more tragic was that he had been removed from his position as the young master of the Heavenly Tiger tribe. His fiancee from the Azure Dragon tribe had also parted ways with him.

The reason for parting ways was not because he had lost his position as the young master of the Heavenly Tiger tribe.

It was because he did not transform.

According to the words of the Azure Dragon princess, she did not want her delicate beauty to be marred by a tiger that refused to change his form.

She did not want to copulate with a tiger!

She was even more unwilling to transform into her true form and do it that way. The scene of an Azure Dragon copulating with a tiger was too frightening and she could not accept it.

She was a monster, not a demonic beast!

Therefore, she parted ways with Hu Tianya!

Hu Tianya left the Heavenly Tiger tribe dejectedly and ran off to this mountaintop to lie down.

Chu Xuan could not figure it out. Was there a hole in Hu Tianya's brain?

He did not transform, but remained in his beast form all the time?

Even his fiancée despised him, yet he did not know how to change himself?

The moment Chu Xuan envisioned the scene of an Azure Dragon entangled with a multicolored tiger…

Not to mention the Azure Dragon princess, no one else could stand that scene.

Who would be the top and who would be the bottom? How would they copulate?

How could such a strange tiger be the fated son of the Heavenly Tiger tribe?

Chu Xuan could not understand why the Dao of fate chose this tiger.

Chapter 169: Acting Cute

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Xuan hesitated. Should he take Hu Tianya as a disciple?

This guy did not seem very serious. He was too weird.

However, thinking of his identity as the son of fate of the Heavenly Tiger tribe, Chu Xuan did not want to give up. After all, it was not easy to meet a son of fate.

Hu Tianya looked ahead blankly. He only felt that the life of a tiger was meaningless, and he did not have the slightest desire to change.

Right now, he only wanted to lie down, and no longer wanted to move.

His position as the young master had been removed.

His fiancée also despised him.

He felt very wronged. What was wrong with him being in his true form?

Why did he have to transform?

However, when he thought of the Azure Dragon princess; her slender and graceful waist, and her absolutely beautiful face…

Sigh, it had nothing to do with him anymore.

He no longer had the chance to kiss her.

He felt his heart ache.

Transform?

He had thought of transforming, but a certain ancestor's inheritance that came from the depths of his bloodline made him choose not to transform.

In the inheritance, it was stated that the Heavenly Tiger tribe could only remain safe and become strong if they maintained their tiger form.

Once they met a strong enemy that they could not defeat, they could lower their heads and admit defeat.

They could even turn their bodies around and reveal their fat bellies, displaying their harmless and cute side.

1

In this way, even strong enemies would not be able to bear to kill him.

The worst-case scenario would be that he would be captured as a pet.

This move was especially effective against female powerhouses.

The influence of his bloodline inheritance was too strong, and Hu Tianya could not free himself from it.

He could not get past the mental block that kept him from transforming.

Therefore, he always maintained his tiger form.

Every time he looked in the mirror, Hu Tianya felt that he was silly, harmless, and very cute.

Especially after shrinking his body size.

"Sigh!"

Hu Tianya sighed. The monster zone was so big, yet he did not know where to go.

He could only lie down on this mountaintop.

Suddenly, a circle of ripples a[[eared. Hu Tianya raised his head and looked over. A terrifying figure was sitting upright on a chair.

That person's figure was shining brilliantly, and his might shook the sky. Hu Tianya did not know how far away this person was, nor what method he used to manifest his presence here.

Hu Tianya's heart shook violently. He did not even need to think before immediately resorting to the skill that he had learned from his bloodline inheritance.

Pa!

He immediately flipped over, revealing his fat belly. He hugged his claws together, and his tiger eyes looked watery. He was simple and cute!

Chu Xuan: "!!!"

Seeing Hu Tianya, who immediately admitted defeat and acted cute, like an obedient tiger, Chu Xuan was dumbfounded.

'Are you such a f*cking coward?'

'I haven't spoken yet. I haven't threatened you yet. I haven't even revealed a trace of my aura yet.'

' Why are you admitting defeat and acting cute already?'

For some reason, Chu Xuan felt that Hu Tianya's actions were very familiar.

Very familiar!

Hu Tai!

In the Great Dao Cultivation Group, every time the three Daoyuan realm cultivators spoke, Hu Tai would act like this.

He would directly condense this cute form with his Dao aura!

Had this tiger f*cking inherited Hu Tai's genes?

Chu Xuan even briefly suspected that Hu Tianya was Hu Tai's son.

However, that was impossible. Hu Tai was an ancestor from countless generations ago in the Heavenly Tiger tribe. How could he have such a young son?

Moreover, Hu Tai was not in the Heavenly Tiger tribe's territory.

Chu Xuan had a feeling that Hu Tianya's cowardly and cute posture was definitely inherited. Could it be that he had awakened his ancestor's bloodline?

Had he obtained Hu Tai's inheritance?

It was very likely!

"Little Tiger, are you willing to become my disciple?"

Chu Xuan had a slight headache. If he took Hu Tianya in as a disciple…

This guy did not transform, so he was no different from a tiger.

If he took him as a mount…

No, he was too weak.

Hu Tianya nodded crazily.

"Meow!"

He even let out a cute meow.

Chu Xuan was flustered.

'You're a f*cking tiger, not a cat!'

"Speak! You're a tiger, not a cat!"

Chu Xuan's face darkened.

"Master, Hu Tianya greets Master!"

This guy was actually very smart, and he immediately acknowledged Chu Xuan as his master.

He had the same temperament as Hu Tai.

"You… transform now," Chu Xuan said.

"Master, isn't it bad if I transform? In my bloodline inheritance, it states that I shouldn't casually transform, and that I should maintain my tiger form," Hu Tianya said hesitantly.

Jackpot!

It was definitely an inheritance from Hu Tai's bloodline. Its ancestor had admitted his cowardice and cutesy skills and had passed it on to him.

No wonder he was the son of fate of the Heavenly Tiger tribe.

His bloodline inheritance came from Hu Tai, who was the Heavenly Tiger tribe's ancestor, so it would be strange if he did not end up as the tribe's son of fate.

Hu Tai was an expert at the sixteenth level of the Dao realm.

"In front of your master, you can relax and transform. Otherwise, you can only be a mount, not a disciple," Chu Xuan said with a dark face.

"Yes, Master!" Hu Tianya nodded.

The difference in status between a mount and a disciple was self-evident. Hu Tianya was not stupid. He naturally knew which to choose.

His body swayed, and soon, a tiger-headed fellow appeared on the mountaintop.

He was wearing colorful clothes.

Looking at Hu Tianya's transformed form, Chu Xuan's mouth twitched. It was really a tiger-like guy!

He still retained his tiger-like head, but his body had transformed into human form.

"My strength is still low, so this is the extent of my transformation ability," Hu Tianya lowered his head and said.

"You'd better transform back into your beast form."

Chu Xuan was speechless. Hu Tianya's semi-human form was much uglier than his beast form.

When he was in his beast form, he looked like a big cat. He looked simple and cute.

Hu Tianya transformed back into his beast form and felt that the statement in thebloodline inheritance was accurate.

"You have taken the fated son of the Heavenly Tiger tribe as your disciple. You have been rewarded with the Gengjin White Tiger technique."

As expected, the system's reward appeared.

This was naturally the cultivation technique that suited Hu Tianya the most.

Chu Xuan looked at the description of the Gengjin White Tiger technique.

Cultivating this technique could raise one's bloodline and transform one into a divine white tiger, which was good at killing and walked the path of the Gengjin Dao.

Chu Xuan had never read about the four divine beasts in any of the records of the nine zones. He did not know whether they even existed.

After all, Chu Xuan's understanding of the nine zones was actually very limited.

"Since you've become my disciple, and come from the Heavenly Tiger tribe, I'll teach you a technique that can further elevate your bloodline and make you a divine beast that surpasses your ancestors."

Chu Xuan used the Sagemaster's Halo to create a copy of the Gengjin White Tiger technique and transmitted it over to Hu Tianya.

"Thank you, Master!"

Hu Tianya was still as cute as ever. His claws were clasped together and his tail swayed back and forth like a dog.

He took the cultivation technique booklet and happily flipped his body a few times and made a few cute gestures.

Chu Xuan was speechless. Through Hu Tianya, he seemed to see Hu Tai's past when he was still weak.

He knew that Hu Tai used to be Piao Ruoyun's pet. He often acted cute and fawned on her. Thanks to that, he received a lot of benefits and ate a lot of good things.

The fact that Hu Tai had reached such a realm had a lot to do with the fact that he had been Piao Ruoyun's pet.

"Cultivate well."

"Yes, Master!"

Chu Xuan deactivated the Myriad Heavenly Mirror. He was in a good mood after finally taking in another disciple.

He was looking forward to Hu Tianya bringing him rich rewards.

That being said, Hu Tianya was only at the third level of the truth realm at the moment.

However, the cultivation speed of a child of fate could not be viewed with the lens of common sense. After obtaining the Gengjin White Tiger technique, his strength would increase by leaps and bounds.

He believed that it would not be long before Hu Tianya broke through to the Emperor realm.

Chapter 170: The Spy Behind The Scenes

After accepting Hu Tianya as his disciple, Chu Xuan did not pay too much attention to him. He continued to focus his attention on searching for more Dao realm experts.

There were fewer people chatting in the Great Dao Communication Group nowadays. The novelty had passed, and Piao Ruoyun and the others did not talk much.

On the other hand, Hu Tai and Ying Kong got along very well.

The latter tried his best to flatter the former, and the former tried his best to take care of the latter.

Hu Tai enjoyed being flattered very much, and he seemed to be very pleased with himself. It was as if he had regained his dignity as the ancestor of the Heavenly tiger Tribe and a sixteenth-level Dao realm expert.

A month later.

Chu Xuan finally found another Dao realm expert.

Looking at the image projection on the mirror, Chu Xuan was momentarily stunned.

Another monster?

This time, it was a nine-tailed fox.

At the mention of the nine-tailed fox, Chu Xuan could not help but think of the description of that legendary existence that bewitched all living things and was the most beautiful in the world.

Was it the same for the nine-tailed fox of the nine zones?

Chu Xuan felt a little regretful that the mirror was unable to display any information about the Dao realm experts it found.

Otherwise, he would be able to tell from a glance just how strong the other party was and what he or she looked like.

Currently, he still needed to communicate with the other party to understand the situation before pulling them into the group of Great Dao.

As usual, he contacted the nine-tailed fox.

Foxes were cautious, unlike Hu Tai, who was simple-minded and irritable.

After some conversation, he got to know the other party.

Qing Qing was a seventeenth-level Dao realm nine-tailed fox, and one of the fox clan's ancestors.

Chu Xuan added Qing Qing into the Great Dao Communication Group and introduced her.

Hu Tai: "Coquettish fox?"

"Are you looking to die?"

Qing Qing was furious.

Hu Tai and Qing Qing started quarreling in the group chat.

Ying Kong looked at the newcomer in despair. Another Dao realm expert had joined, but he was still the weakest one here.

Qing Qing's arrival caused the group to become lively again.

Chu Xuan continued to stay mostly silent, and so did Hong Yuanchu and the other two, preserving their status as big shots.

After a few days, the novelty passed, and Qing Qing spoke less. The most active ones there were still Hu Tai and Ying Kong.

Chu Xuan continued to cultivate diligently, accumulating his own cultivation foundation and striving to break through to the Dao realm as soon as possible.

Moreover, he would occasionally use his status as a big shot to check-in on Ying Kong, and inquire about some things from him.

A year passed.

Chu Xuan did not find any more Dao realm experts. His cultivation increased by two levels to the fifth level of the Divine realm.

He continued to gain a deeper understanding of the Stable Dao principle, and he could finally use some of the more basic powers of the Stable Dao principle.

Chu Xuan was a little disappointed, though, that Ding Yue, Wang Luo, and Demon Buddha did not trigger any further system rewards.

It was worth mentioning that Chu Pingfan had already broken through to the ninth level of the truth realm.

He was in the process of accumulating his cultivation foundation to break through to the Emperor realm.

Chu Xuan had high hopes for Chu Pingfan. While resources had played a role in his rapid advancement through the truth realm, his talent played an even bigger role.

In addition, Chu Pingfan did not enter the pocket dimension, so he was not relying on the time flow difference there to cultivate.

Chu Xuan was looking forward to his breakthrough to the Emperor realm.

The rewards would be plentiful then.

Chu Yun had broken through to the second level of the Emperor Realm, while Su Xian'er was already at the sixth level of the Emperor Realm. Although she had stayed in the pocket dimension for a long time, she did not cultivate all the time in order to suppress her realm.

Instead, she sorted out some information or learned how to refine pills, weapons, and array formations.

Chu Xuan often gave Chu Yun some pointers on her pill refinement, and taught her some secret techniques.

The Chu family had also developed rapidly in the past year.

With the help of Chu Yun's medicinal pills, and the discovery of the Chu family's inheritance, their strength continued to increase.

It was worth mentioning that the Chu family still maintained a close relationship with the Zhao and He families.

Their relationship with the Qin family was somewhat distant because they were not part of the Great Qin Dynasty's administration.

Currently, the strongest person in the Chu family was an elder at the ninth level of the truth realm.

There were more than ten unity realm experts and three truth realm experts.

Within the Great Qin Dynasty, they were considered a very strong force.

Within the Southern Region, they could be considered a mid-level force.

Thanks to Chu Yun, no one came to disturb Chu Xuan anymore. It was as if they had forgotten about Chu Xuan's existence.

Chu Tianming also no longer pushed him to return to the ancestral residence.

Of course, this was probably because he was angered by Chu Xuan last time.

In a year's time, the Heavenly Dao Talisman plan had progressed steadily.

Using the tower lords of the Black Moon Tower, Chu Xuan took the initiative to attack. He had people carry wisps of his power and silently controlled many of the Black Moon Tower's higher-ups and experts.

Currently, the highest status person-in-charge of the Black Moon Tower he had controlled was a seven-star Tower Lord.

His cultivation was at the sixth level of the Supreme realm.

As a seven-star Tower Lord, his status in the Black Moon Tower was not low. Despite that, he still did not know anything about the mastermind behind the Black Moon Tower.

Seeing this, Chu Xuan became more cautious. Perhaps the person behind the Black Moon Tower was a Divine realm expert.

The person in charge of the Black Moon Tower's South Region was now Bao Hongyan.

Chu Xuan had rewarded her for her ability to handle matters on his behalf. He allowed her to enter the pocket dimension to cultivate for a period of time, and helped her break through to the Emperor realm.

At the same time, he taught her the secret aura concealing technique.

Bao Hongyan had contributed a lot to the implementation of the Heavenly Dao Talisman plan, and her management and operational abilities were outstanding.

Hence, she was favored by Chu Xuan.

Now, the entire Northern Zone had been infiltrated and Chu Xuan had access to all sorts of information behind the scenes.

Some of the methods used to create the communication talismans had been leaked. Despite this, it did not affect the sales of the Black Moon Tower's communication talismans.

However, it made the various large factions feel more at ease using the communication talisman, as they were not worried about information being leaked through communication talismans they created themselves.

As a result, Chu Xuan was able to learn more and more secrets.

For example, Chu Xuan had also learned about the person who wanted to snatch Su Xian'er's fate through the Heavenly Dao Talisman.

He was Su Xian'er's fiancé, and the cousin of the Holy Son of the Great Qian Palace.

The Su clan had put in a lot of effort, and had even lent out their clan's fate artifact. However, in the end, it had shattered during the fate backlash.

It could be said that they had suffered heavy losses.

With that being the case, it was not surprising that they were able to influence Su Xian'er's fate, as they had used the Su clan's fate artifact!

After all, Su Xian'er had the blood of the Su clan flowing within her, so the Su clan's fate artifact had a greater influence on her.

All of this information was leaked by Patriarch Su when he used the communication talisman to contact an elder of the Great Qian Palace.

The cousin of the Great Qian Palace's holy son had suffered a fate backlash, and he did not have a way to resolve it. His string of bad luck had never ceased since that day, and he was now half-crippled.

The Holy Son of the Great Qian Palace was extremely mysterious, and Chu Xuan had yet to obtain any information about him. He had no idea what his name was, what his cultivation level was, or what he was doing.

It seemed like he was in seclusion and had not used a communication talisman.

The three sects and two empires of the Southern Region all communicated frequently with the forces behind them, discussing their plans for the Asura Ancient Land.

The various forces of the Northern Zone also started to discuss the quotas for entry to the Asura Ancient Land. In order to determine the quota, they even decided to hold a competition.

The young geniuses of the various forces would participate. They would be allocated additional or few entry slots based on their rankings in the competition.

Of course, itinerant cultivators could also participate.

After all, there were many itinerant cultivators, and there were also quite a number of strong ones. If they completely excluded the itinerant cultivators, it was likely that they would band together to cause trouble.

Therefore, they allocated a certain number of spots to appease the strong ones among the itinerant cultivators.

The competition was tentatively scheduled to be held in ten years. Of course, they could not rule out the possibility of it happening earlier.

Chu Xuan decided to allow Wang Luo and Ding Yue to participate, and Xiang Xing would also participate. The competition involved cultivators from the entire Northern Zone, so the chances of triggering a system reward were very high.
