Beast Taming Makes Me Stronger-Chapter 21 - Big Brother

Two days later, Niu Yibao and Xu Feng received the mission to guard the area at the end of the Purple Gold Vein, in mine tunnel number 38.

"Brother Xu, let's go," said Niu Yibao, mounted on his Qingfeng Gourd.

"Okay~"

After responding, Xu Feng said goodbye to the Golden Core Cultivator beside him: "Cousin, I'll head over first, contact me with the Communication Magic Artifact if anything comes up."

During the two days at the large courtyard, Xu Feng also ran into his cousin from the same family, with whom he had played when they were younger. Later, his parents had to oversee another Immortal City, and he left with them.

After entering the Outer Sect together, their assigned Cave Mansions were far apart, so their contact was limited.

"Go on, cousin," said a handsome and upright young man, waving and smiling, "when you return, I'll treat you to a drink at Half Moon Building."

Above the clouds, Xu Feng and Niu Yibao flew side by side.

"So Brother Xu comes from the Immortal Turtle Xu Family, my admiration," Niu Yibao said with a clasped-hand salute.

"Haha, the Qingfeng Niu Family is a Golden Immortal Family. To say 'long admired' could it be that you look down on me?" Xu Feng's eyebrows knitted slightly.

"Brother Xu misunderstands, there was absolutely no such intention," Niu Yibao hastened to explain with waving hands.

"Haha, just joking with you."

"But your family is truly formidable."

The two chatted like this, crossing a distance of twenty thousand li before arriving at mine tunnel number 38.

Xu Feng cast a secret seal, and a gateway suddenly opened in the area that merged indistinguishably with the mountainside.

After the two entered, there was a small town inside.

At the end of the town lay a large mine tunnel.

"Now that you two have arrived, I can leave. I wish you success in guarding this mine," said the Nascent Soul Stage overseer here upon seeing the two, and then he directly left.

"Honorable sirs, I am the deputy overseer here; if you have any questions later on, feel free to ask me," said a middle-aged Golden Core Cultivator who approached.

"Understood, now tell us about the Array and Guard Team here," Xu Feng inquired, having briefly familiarized himself with the Sect's Spiritual Ore Vein structure beforehand.

"The Guard Team has 30 members, all Golden Core Cultivators."

"The Array is none other than the Golden Wall Eight Directions Formation, impenetrable by anyone below the Divinity Transformation Stage. This formation was originally set up to prevent Demon Beasts from causing trouble," the overseer introduced.

"I've got it," Xu Feng nodded and then led Niu Yibao out of the concealing Great Array.

"Brother Xu, I have a Qingfeng Gourd here, capable of surveying the movements within a hundred li," Niu Yibao pulled out a small, green gourd engraved with an eye.

"I have an Earth Pattern Tripod here, able to set up Earth Eyes for monitoring both above and below ground. It complements your Magic Treasure well, Brother Niu."

A small, yellow tripod appeared in Xu Feng's hand, carved with 20 pairs of Earth Eyes.

"At least we won't have problems detecting enemies."

"The issue now is our combat capabilities," Xu Feng looked toward Niu Yibao.

"High Grade Golden Core, fused with a Five Elements Gourd, adept in the Five Elements Divine Technique."

Hearing this, Xu Feng suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed to speak out.

"Middle Grade Golden Core, some combat experience, good at Qi Explosion Technique and Wind Escape."

"To grasp the specifics, why not we spar and experience it?" Xu Feng suggested.

"No need, people from the Xuanyin Sect might attack at any moment. It's better if we preserve our condition."

"I trust in Brother Xu's combat abilities," Niu Yibao said quickly, gesturing with his hands.

Just as the two were preparing to deploy the Detection Treasure, a massive net suddenly appeared in the sky, enveloping the two.

"Not good!"

Without a moment's delay, Xu Feng, taking the still unresponsive Niu Yibao with him, used a Qi Explosion Technique to quickly escape from the net's scope.

"Oh, somewhat capable, to dodge my Thunder Net so swiftly," an icy voice echoed in the ears of both.

"Brother Niu, take care of yourself!" After placing Niu Yibao on the ground, Xu Feng immediately set off a tremendous Qi Explosion in the sky.

Watching the fluctuations spread from the Qi Explosion Technique, Xu Feng quickly determined the enemy's location.

After being discovered, the Xuanyin Sect Disciple no longer remained hidden.

A man in a dark red robe appeared mid-air, with three Thunder Pearls floating around Zhou Shen.

"It's a pity, after hiding here for so long, you actually managed to react just as I made my move."

At this moment, Niu Yibao, who was arranged by Xu Feng to be at a distance, had just regained his senses.

Niu Yibao waved his hand, and seven differently colored gourds floated behind him.

Of these, two gourds were aimed at the Xuanyin Sect Disciple in the sky.

These seven Treasure Gourds made the Xuanyin Sect Disciple who was about to strike calm down.

"Damn it!"

After speaking, the Xuanyin Sect Disciple transformed into a bolt of lightning and dashed into the distance.

His speed was so fast that Xu Feng lost interest in pursuing, not because he couldn't catch up, but because he was afraid of falling into a trap.

"Seven treasures, that's really a grand gesture!" Xu Feng exclaimed in admiration.

He had some discernment and could see that the gourds around his fellow disciple Niu Yi were all High Grade Treasure Gourds.

"Thank you, Brother Xu, for the life-saving grace!"

After putting away the gourds, Niu Yibao began to express his gratitude.

"We are part of the same team. It's natural for us to support each other."

"Besides, we are also friends." Xu Feng said with a slight smile.

"Brother Xu, I would like to acknowledge you as my big brother." Niu Yibao said earnestly.

"Just call me big brother, there's no need for formalities."

"Big Brother Xu." Niu Yibao called out earnestly.

"Alright."

"Brother Niu, go set up your Qingfeng Gourd."

"I'll go and arrange the Earth Eyes on the Earth Pattern Tripod."

"Alright."

An hour later, the Detection Treasures were all set up.

The two men sat outside the array in a cool pavilion, enjoying tea.

"Big Brother Xu, in these past few thousand years, the six major Immortal Sects have all developed smoothly, so they all want to start a great war to reestablish the division of interests in the Green Cloud Immortal Domain."

"The last war saw our Golden Cauldron Immortal Sect defeated by the Xuanyin Sect, and we were quite dissatisfied. This time, we will definitely fight back."

"It starts with the competition in the Outer Sect, selecting a batch of outstanding Disciples to join the Inner Sect. Then the friction will slowly start a fire, and finally erupt at one point."

"Once the great war begins, the entire Immortal Domain will have no peace." Niu Yibao depicted the future scenes.

"Troublesome times, isn't it better for everyone to mind their own business?" Xu Feng said, annoyed.

"I heard from my clan elders, every Immortal Sect great war births several outstanding prodigies."

"This is also the reason why the great Immortal Sects want to start a war." While Niu Yibao was speaking, his expression suddenly changed.

"Big Brother Xu, there's a disturbance outside!"

"Judging by the spiritual power fluctuations, there should be 12 of them!"

"Let's go, call the Guard Team, and intercept them!"

At this time, a group of Xuanyin Sect Disciples was approaching Mine No. 38.

"According to Lei Yin's report, the Golden Cauldron Immortal Sect Disciples guarding this mine are not to be underestimated. Be cautious in a moment." The leading Xuanyin Sect Disciple looked towards Mine No. 38 with greed.

"A reward of one-tenth of a large ore vein's total value, even if shared evenly, would be enough for me to condense an Immortal Spiritual Divine Power."

At this moment, on the inevitable path of that group of Xuanyin Sect Disciples, Xu Feng was leading the Guard Team in ambush.
