Past life sage: This life a dual cultivator

"Young master, what is a noble beast?", Li Shu looked towards Zhan Chen with curiosity in her eyes.

A smile appeared on Zhan Chen's face after hearing Li Shu's curious voice. He looked towards Kai Min and she also seemed to be curious about this matter.

"Have you girls never heard of noble beasts?", Zhan Chen looked towards the trio of Kai Min, Li Shu and Li Yan. All of them shook their heads as it was their first time hearing about such a term related to magical beasts.

"Noble beasts are rather special in the world of magical beasts. Even the beast lords' have to respect the noble beasts because of their background and talent.

Their bloodline is special because one of their parents has already crossed the mortal boundary and become one of the revered beast sovereign",

Zhan Chen explained.

"Beast sovereign!", a jolt ran through the spines of all three of them as they looked towards the Shadow panther with fearful eyes. Because all of them knew, what the term 'Beast sovereign', represented.

Beast sovereigns were the supreme creature among the magical beasts and they could easily rival the strongest existences of the human world. Now that heir of such an existence was among them, all three of them became apprehencive.

"There is no need to fear it. Because it seems like it's parents are missing", Zhan Chen spoke as he rubbed the head of the shadow panther. A look of melancholy appeared in the eyes of the shadow panther after hearing Zhan Chen's words. Kai Min, Li Shu and Li Yan could tell that Zhan Chen was telling the truth after seeing the look on the face of the shadow panther.

They resumed their journey after Zhan Chen arranged the magical beasts for each of them. They rode nonstop and it was only at the afternoon of next day that they chose to stop.

"Young master, shall we take a break?", Li Shu looked towards Zhan Chen with an expectant gaze.

Zhan Chen could not say no to such a simple request of her. So, all of them finally decided to take a rest after a day of nonstop travelling.

"Young master Chen, we should stay here for today's night. Ahead of is a vast forest and we shouldn't go though it during the night", Li Yan spoke.

She was holding the map that elder Tong had given to Zhan Chen and her eyes were focused on the outlines of the map. The map was a magical treasure itself as it's size would be enlarged inside the mind of the viewer after channeling essence energy into it.

"Well, it will not hurt to take some rest. We can resume our travelling after tomorrow", Zhan Chen nodded his head.

A smile crept into the lips of Li Yan after hearing Zhan Chen's consent. She felt pleased to herself as she came down from her mount and looked at the map for further study.

"Big sis Yan, is there any stream nearby? We can wash ourselves before taking a rest", Li Shu looked towards Li Yan.

"Let me look", Li Yan spoke as she tried to search for a stream in the the map given to her by Zhan Chen. She shook her head after few moments as the map had not recorded such minute details.

A disappointed look appeared on the face of Li Shu as she turned to look at the direction of Zhan Chen.

"Yi...., where is young master?", she exclaimed after not finding Zhan Chen in the vicinity.

"Young master has left as soon as we dismounted", Kai Min informed them.

"Are you sure there is no problem in the communication tailsman?", a bald headed cultivator looked towards his companion.

"There shouldn't be any problem. After all, I have used a profound grade tailsman to notify the elder", his companion replied.

Both of them stood silently for a while. After sometime, they felt something and turned their heads to look behind.

Two cultivators were approaching them rapidly with breathtaking speed. "Is not the other person elder Huo?", one of the cultivator exclaimed.

"Indeed, elder Huo is coming with elder Zhou. It is a surprise!", the bald headed cultivator replied.

"Tire four magical beasts and three top notch beauties. One of them is still has her primordial yin intact. It is guaranteed that we will gain merit points after getting back to the sect", the companion of the bald headed cultivator spoke. The bald headed cultivator nodded his head as a dighted expression appeared on his face.

"Elder Huo"

"Elder Zhuo", the two cultivators bowed immediately after seeing the two flying cultivators.

"You are Lian Chengyu, right?", elder Huo looked towards the bald headed cultivator.

"Yes elder", the bald headed man nodded his head in delight.

"You have done well. I will allow you to choose a suitable cultivation resource after we get back to the sect", Elder Huo spoke.

"Where are they?", elder Zhuo asked impatiently. A tyrannical soul consciousness came out from him and spread to the nearby surrounding.

"Brother Zhuo, stop. There are tier four magical beasts with them. They can sense your soul consciousness and may alert their masters", elder Huo kept his hand on the shoulder of elder Zhuo to stop him.

"Then what do you propose?", elder Zhuo looked towards elder Huo.

"There is no need to bother the tier four magical beasts. Our main target is the girl whose primordial yin is still intact", elder Huo spoke.

"What about the other two girls?", elder Zhuo frowned.

"Brother Zhuo, relax. We should focus on our main task first. You can take both of them after we complete our mission", elder Huo spoke.

"Clap, clap, clap", suddenly clapping sound came from a distance. The conversation between elder Huo and elder Zhuo abruptly stopped after hearing the clapping sound.

Zhan Chen emerged from the behind of a nearby tree as he slowly walked towards elder Huo and elder Zhuo.

"Who are you?", Elder Zhuo asked as the emergence of Zhan Chen ringed a sound of crisis inside his mind.

"Elder, he is the boy who has been traveling with those three beautiful girls", the bald headed cultivator spoke.

"Why can't I see through his cultivation?", elder Huo frowned after checking Zhan Chen with his soul consciousness.

"I wonder what are you planning with Li Yan? Moreover, you seems to have design on Li Shu and Kai Min?", Zhan Chen looked towards elder Zhou. There was no obvious facial expression on his face. So, no one could say whether he was angry or simply curious.

"Why should we reply you? Moreover, your fate is sealed as you have come across us", elder Huo spoke.

"Is that so?", Zhan Chen looked towards elder Huo.

"Just a puny fifth stage expert. And you seems to be too overconfident in your ability", Zhan Chen looked at elder Zhou coldly.

"Looks like you have got no other companion. It is time to wrap this up", Zhan Chen spoke.

"Brat, don't utter too much nonsense to confuse us. Take this and stop your mouth", elder Huo spoke.

He threw an essence palm towards Zhan Chen and it rapidly flew towards the chest region of Zhan Chen. Elder Zhou also took out his scimitar and sliced towards Zhan Chen.

Suddenly, a frightening roar came from the behind of Zhan Chen. It was the shadow panther who seemed to be enraged after seeing the attack on Zhan Chen.

It moved with a breathtaking speed and before Zhan Chen could do anything, it collided with the two attacks of elder Zhuo and elder Huo.
