Chapter 495 - 494: Dragon and Tiger Ranking
If enough Spirit Treasure Fragments are found, it is indeed possible to enhance the Taiyi Golden Bell to a Middle Grade Magical Treasure, Upper Grade Magical Treasure, or even a Top Grade Magical Treasure.
Of course, trying to find the remaining Spirit Treasure Fragments is obviously not an easy task.
However, Gu Yuan is not in a hurry. After all, now that he knows about it, he just needs to pay attention to it slowly in the future.
"If I can get other fragments, I’m sure I can quickly enhance the quality of the Taiyi Golden Bell. It seems I’ll have to keep an eye out in the future."
Gu Yuan thought to himself and recalled seeing Gu Xuanfeng earlier.
The other party is eager to purchase fragments, so he must be aware of their value. Could it be that he also has such Spirit Treasure Fragments?
If this is true, then it definitely needs more attention.
...
"Dragon and Tiger List..."
A few days later, Gu Yuan held a Jade Scroll with a somewhat peculiar expression.
"No wonder that Gu Xuanfeng came to challenge me, wanting a Magical Battle on the Life and Death Platform. It turns out... this guy’s clan brother is named Gu Xuanqing, and he’s actually on the Dragon and Tiger List."
Compared to the Southern Border Cultivation Realm, the Cultivation Realm of the East Sea is more prevalent, and along with abundant cultivation resources, it has birthed many talented prodigies.
Thus, in recent ancient times, someone established the Dragon and Tiger List.
This list includes all the outstanding young talents of the East Sea Cultivation Realm.
On the Tiger List, it includes talented disciples from various big and small Immortal Sects and influences.
These people are arranged according to Earthly Fiend numbers, and their rankings are based on factors like age, talent, strength, potential, and achievements.
For instance, Gu Xuanfeng actually has the qualification to compete for a place on the Tiger List.
Because his combat power is outstanding, and he has even formed a Second Grade Pill, possessing the potential and possibility of Yin Spirit and even Yang Spirit.
Additionally, Gu Xuanfeng himself is not very old, and his potential is great.
On the Tiger List, whether it’s Celestial Human Realm Cultivators or Golden Core Great Cultivators, they all can be listed, and even have a chance to rank among the top.
It can be said that anyone on the Tiger List is an elite among the younger generation, and outstanding with great potential!
The future holds the potential to achieve Yin Spirit or Yang Spirit!
This is a vast goal that most cultivators can only dream of and cannot attain.
As for the Dragon List...
This list is arranged according to the numbers of Heavenly Gang, with a total of thirty-six positions.
Even the least among them have already formed a Golden Core, and it’s a First Grade Pill Formation, with the potential to become Primordial Spirit True Immortals!
The outstanding ones among them have even, at an age less than a hundred, risen to become Yin Spirit Giants, fully exhibiting the posture of having Primordial Spirit True Immortal potential.
The Dragon character in the Dragon List actually has a certain meaning.
The Yang Spirit Realm, also known as the Dragon Gate Realm, is the most critical phase in the transformation from fish to dragon, from human to immortal.
Anyone able to be listed on the Dragon List has the potential to become Primordial Spirit True Immortals!
Of course, having the potential of a Primordial Spirit True Immortal does not necessarily mean they will definitely ascend to become a Primordial Spirit True Immortal, but it at least indicates that these people have the qualification!
Gu Xuanfeng’s elder brother, Gu Xuanqing, is a True Disciple of the Yuqiao Immortal Palace, and he is also a world-class genius who has formed a First Grade Golden Core!
This person is prodigiously talented, having formed a First Grade Golden Core at just over forty years old, he is also a famous figure in the entire East Sea Cultivation Realm and a prominent figure within the Yuqiao Immortal Palace, valued by many elders and elders within the palace. His status is comparable to Li Changsheng of Medicine King Mountain.
Furthermore, this Gu Xuanqing is ranked sixteenth on the Dragon List, truly an unparalleled genius!
Rumor has it... on the day of his birth, a White Crane carried Reishi in its beak, a Spiritual Turtle held a Treasure Pearl in its mouth to pay homage, and red energy spread across five hundred miles—his fate was supremely noble, suspected to be the reincarnation of a great figure.
Of course, the truth of this is unknown to anyone.
Gu Yuan contemplated that Gu Xuanqing’s cultivation and strength are estimated to be about the same as Li Changsheng, or perhaps even slightly stronger, considering... the foundation of Yuqiao Immortal Palace is not comparable to Medicine King Mountain.
As a cherished treasure of Yuqiao Immortal Palace, Gu Xuanqing has not only received careful guidance from some great figures but has also mastered many powerful Divine Techniques and definitely has plenty of ace cards up his sleeve.
And in these aspects, Li Changsheng is likely inferior.
Of course, anyone who can form a First Grade Golden Core is a rare world-class genius, and even if Gu Xuanqing is stronger than Li Changsheng, the strength difference is limited.
Though Gu Xuanqing is so formidable, he is ranked only sixteenth on the Dragon List. The top fifteen must presumably have talent surpassing Gu Xuanqing, yet, in reality, the ranking is not solely based on talent, but other factors as well.
For instance, on the Dragon List, there are quite a few Yin Spirit Giants. These giants are not ancient monsters, but also top-notch among the younger generation.
Being able to ascend to the Yin Spirit Realm, which many ancient monsters have pursued for a lifetime without reaching, is enough to prove their talent, enlightenment, brilliance, and luck.
Additionally, aside from the Dragon and Tiger List in the East Sea Cultivation Realm, there is also a Heavenly List, also known as the Immortal List.
This list does not feature young prodigies and Golden Core Yin Spirits, but Primordial Spirit True Immortals!
That’s right, the Heavenly List, or the Immortal List, features only Primordial Spirit True Immortals!
There are ten Primordial Spirits listed.
Of course, being able to cultivate to the Primordial Spirit Realm implies these beings have transcended the mundane and achieved longevity.
For a Primordial Spirit True Immortal, below the Primordial Spirit, there is no longevity, all is mundane.
Mundane beings naturally have no qualification to rank Primordial Spirit True Immortals, and to do so would be courting death.
Thus, the Immortal List is naturally not something a cultivator has done, but rather was done by a Primordial Spirit True Immortal.
Moreover, the ten Primordial Spirit True Immortals are not ranked, with no distinction of strength or weakness.
Because outside of these ten Primordial Spirit True Immortals, the East Sea surely has other hidden Primordial Spirit True Immortals.
Setting aside the Immortal List, Tiger List, etc., just talking about Gu Xuanqing being Gu Xuanfeng’s elder brother, and it’s said the two brothers have a very good relationship. Because of this, Gu Xuanfeng’s status within the Yuqiao Immortal Palace has also risen, at least stronger than Xue Shenhu.
And he has gained quite a few benefits and possesses some powerful ace cards.
So, naturally, Gu Xuanfeng wouldn’t take Gu Yuan seriously and merely sees him as a stepping stone, wanting to step on him to rise higher.
"If you take me as a stepping stone, you’re probably mistaken..."
Gu Yuan shook his head and casually set down the Jade Scroll.
Since he has already agreed to Gu Xuanfeng’s Magical Battle on the Life and Death Platform, he naturally needs to understand the opponent’s situation to avoid any unforeseen setbacks.
Gu Yuan never underestimates an adversary, especially someone with a background like Gu Xuanfeng. Who knows what means the opponent might pull, so it’s best to be cautious.
The information in this Jade Scroll is something Gu Yuan spent some Spirit Stones on to commission someone to purchase.
Though possibly not comprehensive, at the very least it allows Gu Yuan to have more understanding to avoid some unnecessary troubles.
