Chapter 346 - 345: The True Inheritance of the Myriad Beasts Sect Leader
The healed spiritual beasts all expressed their gratitude toward Yu Qingtan, and Xiaoqing also felt very fond of her as a result. After treating all the injured spiritual beasts, Yu Qingtan brought Xiaotao to the top of Hundred Beasts Mountain while the remaining spiritual beasts took their time to rest on the Spirit Beast Plains.
At this time, the figure of Demon Venerable Bai Chen appeared beside Xiaoqing.
"Sister, I’m sorry, I’ve been defeated!" Xiaoqing said with a bowed head upon seeing Demon Venerable Bai Chen.
"Xiaoqing, it’s okay, it’s just that Qing Shuang is too strong!" Demon Venerable Bai Chen gently stroked Xiaoqing’s head and consoled her.
"Senior, to be completely truthful, my real name is Yu Qingtan, a disciple of Wendao Sect, and Qing Shuang is an alias I used while traveling incognito." Yu Qingtan said as she flicked her sleeve, revealing her true appearance.
By then, there was no longer any need for disguise, so she openly declared her identity.
"So it seems, but by choosing this name, you were also fated to meet Xiaoqing. Actually, the third trial of the true disciple’s test simply required you to hold out for a quarter of an hour against Xiaoqing.
Seeing your great strength, I decided to raise the difficulty to the level of the sect leader’s true disciple trial, and indeed you passed. If you can take another palm strike from me without dying, you’ll be deemed to have officially passed the sect leader’s true disciple trial. How about it, do you dare to take on the challenge?"

Demon Venerable Bai Chen narrowed her eyes and looked towards Yu Qingtan as she spoke. Xiaoqing eyed Yu Qingtan with great interest while Xiaotao looked at her with concern.
"Why would I not dare, senior, please make your move." Yu Qingtan confidently declared, for she was but an avatar, what was there to fear? Moreover, she estimated that Demon Venerable Bai Chen would not strike with full force.
Demon Venerable Bai Chen gave a slight nod, a glint of admiration flashing in her eyes. She slowly raised her palm, condensing a powerful spiritual power in the center of her hand as if intending to envelop the entire Hundred Beasts Mountain within it.
Upon seeing this, Xiaoqing clenched her fists nervously, while Xiaotao’s face turned pale in fright. Yu Qingtan also braced herself for the attack, placing the Blue Star Dharma Aspect in front, with the Five Elements Canglan Umbrella, her lifebound artifact, in the middle and the Five Elements Protective Barrier covering her body. She took a deep breath, ready to meet the formidable strike.
With a sudden motion, Demon Venerable Bai Chen unleashed her palm strike – a massive white palm imprint appeared, hurling towards Yu Qingtan with devastating power, and within it, the second level of the Origin of Power was actually contained. @@novelbin@@
The force of Demon Venerable Bai Chen’s palm far exceeded Yu Qingtan’s expectations. The white palm imprint, like a celestial object, brought with it an endless aura of destruction as it hurtled towards her.
The Blue Star Dharma Aspect in front of Yu Qingtan contracted violently, attempting to withstand the heaven-shattering strike by increasing its density. However, the power of the palm strike was far too immense; in just an instant, the Blue Star Dharma Aspect was torn apart by the terrifying force and dissipated into countless fragments in the air.
The Five Elements Canglan Umbrella, her lifebound artifact, was no exception. Although it was positioned in front of Yu Qingtan, it could not withstand the after-effects of the palm imprint. With a cry of pain from the artifact spirit Xiao Wu, Yu Qingtan managed to retract it into her body just in time, resulting in only minor damage.
Then the palm strike, carrying only thirty percent of its destructive power, hit Yu Qingtan. The Five Elements Protective Barrier blocked a portion of the force, but the remaining power still grievously wounded her. She felt as if her body had been struck by a heavy mallet, with her internal organs severely damaged.
"Pugh!" Yu Qingtan spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground and creating a deep pit several zhang wide.
Yu Qingtan felt her Nascent Soul was wilting, her life force rapidly draining away, and though she was gravely injured and near death, she did not die, and thus her avatar did not vanish.
Yu Qingtan swallowed a fourth-stage superior Healing Pill and a fourth-stage Spirit Spring Green Lotus Seed that she had been holding in her mouth beforehand, and her injuries began to heal quickly.
Xiaowu was terrified by this scene, his soul scattered with fright. He hurried to Yu Qingtan’s side, his eyes full of concern and fear. Yu Qingtan gave him a reassuring look and then began to close her eyes and focus all her efforts on healing.
A quarter of an hour later, Yu Qingtan’s main meridians had been repaired. She then used the Life-Death Manipulation Technique on herself, speeding up her recovery. Another stick of incense’s time later, Yu Qingtan was out of danger. Such was the terrifying recovery ability of a body cultivator who had comprehended the Origin of Wood.
Yu Qingtan slowly opened her eyes, feeling the power inside her body gradually recovering, and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. She looked up at Demon Venerable Bai Chen, her eyes flickering with a resolute light.
"Thank you, senior, for showing mercy." Yu Qingtan stood up and bowed to Demon Venerable Bai Chen in gratitude for not delivering a fatal blow.
Demon Venerable Bai Chen nodded slightly, a flicker of appreciation in her eyes. She was very satisfied with Yu Qingtan’s performance; not only did the girl possess extraordinary talent and great strength, but she also had a firm will and perseverance.
"That move, the Bai Chen Seal, had the power of a peak initial Nascent Soul stage attack, so it wasn’t really holding back. You did well; congratulations on successfully passing the Sect Master’s true disciple trial," said Demon Venerable Bai Chen. "From this moment on, you are the Myriad Beasts Sect’s only true disciple of the Sect Master, entitled to the highest cultivation resources and treatment within the sect. Once you become a Divine Transformation Cultivator, you will be the Sect Master of the Myriad Beasts Sect."
"Senior, is there any mission that comes with becoming the true disciple of the Myriad Beasts Sect?" Yu Qingtan asked.
"You don’t need to call me senior anymore, just call me Bai Chen. There is no particular mission, as the Myriad Beasts Sect currently only has you. You can do as you please. Now that you have become the true disciple of the Sect Master, you can refine Hundred Beasts Mountain and utilize most of the sect’s resources. I can also lend you a hand!" Bai Chen said.
Upon hearing this, Yu Qingtan was a little surprised. She had originally thought that becoming a true disciple of the Myriad Beasts Sect would entail some important mission, but she did not expect Bai Chen to say such things.
She took a deep breath and bowed solemnly to Demon Venerable Bai Chen, saying, "Bai Chen, I will definitely practice diligently and restore Hundred Beasts Mountain and Thousand Beasts Mountain to their former glory."
Bai Chen looked at Yu Qingtan’s determined eyes and felt very gratified. She nodded and said, "Very good, I believe you can do it. Now go refine Hundred Beasts Mountain, and once you become a Divine Transformation Cultivator, refine Thousand Beasts Mountain. By then, your strength will have increased significantly."
Heart full of anticipation, Yu Qingtan no longer hesitated, went to the top of Hundred Beasts Mountain, and sat down cross-legged to begin the refinement of Hundred Beasts Mountain. Qing Tan also turned into a streak of green light, entering Hundred Beasts Mountain to assist Yu Qingtan with the refinement.
Three days later, Yu Qingtan successfully refined Hundred Beasts Mountain. The primary function of the Hundred Beasts Mountain and Thousand Beasts Mountain was to raise Spiritual Beasts, which were self-sustaining; currently numbering one hundred million and one billion Spiritual Beasts, respectively.
This was because the Myriad Beasts Sect had fallen, and the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm had been drifting in the endless void, without external resources for replenishment, so many Spiritual Beasts were conserved. But at the peak of the Hundred Beasts Mountain and Thousand Beasts Mountain’s past, the number of Spiritual Beasts was terrifying.
Then, Demon Venerable Bai Chen gave Yu Qingtan another Daoist Instrument from the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm, the Myriad Beasts Blood Pool. It was an inferior Dao Artifact without an Artifact Spirit, useful for both Yu Qingtan’s body refining and raising Spiritual Beasts.
Yu Qingtan’s Body Refining Technique, the Demon Blood Refinement Technique, was derived from the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm and was complemented by the Myriad Beasts Blood Pool.
