Chapter 405 : Divine Transformation Supreme Treasure
Chapter 405: Divine Transformation Supreme Treasure
What was a Creation Supreme Treasure?
Chen Beiwu did not know much about this, but he was aware that Creation Supreme Treasures were miraculous objects formed by inheriting the origin laws of the Great Dao.
Their very existence was a part of the Dao itself. They possessed the mighty power to define laws, and their might far surpassed Heaven-Piercing Profound Treasures. They were not something a Nascent Soul True Monarch could control.
Even the records of Creation Supreme Treasures within the Jade Purity Immortal Sect were extremely scarce, with only a few comments remaining.
The sentence that left the deepest impression on Chen Beiwu was: “Only a Divine Transformation True Venerable who has gathered the Three Flowers atop the head and Five Qi returning to the origin can refine and control a Creation Supreme Treasure, displaying the true might of such a supreme treasure.”
“Ying!” “Na!”
Sensing the shock in Chen Beiwu’s heart, Zhiling and Xuele looked at each other, both revealing incredulous expressions.
They had merely made a casual guess. They never expected their luck to be so good that they guessed correctly on the first try.
How precious were Creation Supreme Treasures? Even Divine Transformation True Venerables of the Immortal Alliance might not possess one!
A mere Nascent Soul True Monarch of Azure Spirit Sect actually possessed such a supreme treasure. It had not attracted the attention of any Divine Transformation True Venerable. This was truly unbelievable.
“Ying!” (Right, I almost forgot this world does not have Divine Transformation!)
Zhiling blinked its eyes and looked at the ancient seal with a solemn expression.
“Na.” (No, that’s not right. There is one Divine Transformation True Venerable in the Southern Derivation Realm.)
Xuele shook its head to correct it, its gaze toward the ancient seal filled with eagerness.
Supreme treasures like Creation Supreme Treasures mostly possessed special abilities. It wondered whether this one could be used for farming.
“Woof.”
Iron Egg’s eyes brightened slightly, happy that Chen Beiwu had obtained a supreme treasure.
Only Golden Egg scratched its head. It was both somewhat surprised and somewhat proud.
So what if it had guessed incorrectly?
Although Chen Beiwu had already sensed that something was unusual about this ancient seal, he had ultimately relied on its Three Forms Furnace profound ability to investigate its origins.
“Don’t get happy too early!”
Through the shared-partner contract, Chen Beiwu sensed the excitement of the four little fellows. He slightly shook his head and suppressed the excitement in his heart before saying, “Nine lives comprehend the Dao, nine ages of reincarnation. When the seal rises, all things are born. When the seal falls, all realms become silent.”
“Although this Nine Lives Nine Ages Seal is a Creation Supreme Treasure, it is in a severely damaged state. Of the nine great foundational Dao scripts, only ‘life’ and ‘age’ remain. Its might is less than one percent of its former strength, leaving only the effects of protecting true spirit and reincarnation.”
As he said this, Chen Beiwu slightly frowned, unable to avoid feeling some regret.
Obtaining a supreme treasure was naturally worth celebrating, but the problem was that this treasure was damaged far too severely. Activating it not only required consuming spiritual power but also sacrificing lifespan and destiny before it could barely display a trace of its might.
However, no matter how incomplete a Creation Supreme Treasure was, the might it could unleash was still not something a Nascent Soul True Monarch could resist.
No wonder True Monarch Shang Yi had been so confident, wanting to use this treasure to seize his body.
Fortunately, he had been cautious and had prepared the Whirling Three Lights True Domain with Golden Egg beforehand, not giving True Monarch Shang Yi the opportunity to activate the Nine Lives Nine Ages Seal.
No, that was not right.
Chen Beiwu picked up the ancient seal. With a thought, his divine sense extended toward the Nine Breaths Chaos.
His instincts told him that besides the Whirling Three Lights True Domain, the existence of the Nine Breaths Chaos might also have caused the Nine Lives Nine Ages Seal to malfunction at the critical moment.
“Buzz!”
Sure enough, after Chen Beiwu brought the Nine Lives Nine Ages Seal into the Primordial Chaos Heaven and Earth, the ancient seal that had originally displayed some signs of mystery suddenly became completely silent, as if it had encountered an existence of a higher rank and instinctively concealed itself.
Seeing this scene, Chen Beiwu immediately became interested.
Since the Nine Lives Nine Ages Seal was so afraid of the Nine Breaths Chaos, perhaps he could use the might of the Nine Breaths Chaos to attempt refining it and keep it as a hidden trump card.
“Ying?” (Can this treasure only be used for seizing bodies?)
Seeing Chen Beiwu open his eyes, Zhiling moved closer.
The other three little fellows were also filled with curiosity.
“Not exactly.”
Chen Beiwu lightly brushed his finger over the ancient seal, sensing the faint Dao resonance contained within it. He softly said, “True Monarch Shang Yi used it to protect his true spirit, reverse life and death, and seize another’s body to replace his own life. His vision was too narrow.”
As he spoke, Chen Beiwu looked toward the ‘age’ Dao script on the seal’s surface, his expression becoming solemn. “The greatest value of this Nine Lives Nine Ages Seal actually lies in overcoming tribulations!”
“Overcoming tribulations?”
Golden Egg’s eyes were somewhat confused.
It could swallow Heavenly Lightning Tribulations in one bite. Did overcoming tribulations really require external assistance?
“Cultivators stepping onto the immortal path and seeking eternal life and freedom is stealing the creation of heaven and earth and going against the heavens.”
Sensing Golden Egg’s indifference, Chen Beiwu seriously said, “A Nascent Soul True Monarch who wishes to prove the Dao and become a True Venerable must face the Divine Transformation Tribulation. It is not as simple as you imagine. A slight mistake will result in the destruction of the Dao foundation and the annihilation of the true spirit.”
“If my guess is correct, this Nine Lives Nine Ages Seal should be an inherited Creation Supreme Treasure refined by an ancient Dao sect’s cultivation giant. It was specifically created to deal with the Divine Transformation Tribulation, preventing the Dao inheritance’s Divine Transformation experts from becoming extinct and leaving no successors.”
“Unfortunately, this treasure is difficult to repair. Otherwise, when I face the Divine Transformation Tribulation in the future, I would have a few more chances of success.” Chen Beiwu sighed.
He had a ninety-five percent chance of success in proving the Dao and becoming a Nascent Soul True Monarch.
But for proving the Dao and becoming a Divine Transformation True Venerable, he currently had no confidence whatsoever.
The Divine Transformation Tribulation was not comparable to the Nascent Soul Heart Demon Tribulation. It was called the great terror by many Nascent Soul Perfection cultivators.
According to the records of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect, many peerless geniuses had died beneath the Divine Transformation Tribulation.
Even the previous person who forged the Origin Golden Core had fallen beneath the Divine Transformation Tribulation.
With such precedents before him, even with Chen Beiwu’s confidence and the support of the Heavenly Fortune Purple Dragon’s status, he did not believe his chances of proving the Dao and becoming a True Venerable could exceed twenty percent.
Of course, the present was the present, and the future was the future.
If he could comprehend the Nascent Soul Formation Immortal Method successfully and smoothly prove the Dao Seed Nascent Soul, his chances of becoming a True Venerable in the future would increase greatly.
With this thought, Chen Beiwu picked up the Nine Lives Nine Ages Seal and directly began attempting to refine it.
The next morning.
Chen Beiwu sat cross-legged. Golden Egg, Iron Egg, Xuele, and Zhiling guarded him from all sides, while the ancient seal floated above.
Unlike refining the Five Elements Bright King Wings, this Creation Supreme Treasure was extremely troublesome.
The vast Origin True Qi that Chen Beiwu poured into the ancient seal was like meat buns thrown to a dog—gone without return. It could not even create the slightest ripple.
“Interesting. You really have quite the attitude. You eat everything clean and then refuse to acknowledge me?”
Chen Beiwu opened his eyes, becoming interested.
The Nine Lives Nine Ages Seal had consumed so much of his Origin True Qi, yet when he wanted to leave a mark and activate even a trace of the ancient seal’s power, the other party gave no response at all.
“Forget it. Since you refuse a toast and choose punishment, then stay properly in the Primordial Chaos Heaven and Earth.”
Chen Beiwu moved his thoughts and directly threw the ancient seal into the Primordial Chaos Heaven and Earth.
“Buzz!”
Looking at the ancient seal that had suddenly lost all spiritual light, Chen Beiwu shook his head and stood up, leaving the cave abode.
“Master, this concubine is here. I wish you divine fusion with the Supreme Void, heart united with heaven and earth, breaking through the barrier in one step and proving the Dao as a True Monarch!”
Before parting, Shu You bowed deeply, her eyes filled with blessings.
Chen Beiwu nodded, stepped onto the teleportation array within the Star Transformation Hall, and his figure vanished with the radiance.
At the same time, Alchemy Hall.
Li Wan’er’s movements paused, and her heart felt somewhat empty.
‘Has he already left?’
Li Wan’er took a deep breath.
She disliked farewell scenes, so she did not go to see her junior brother off today.
“Junior Brother, I hope that when we meet again, you will already be a Nascent Soul True Monarch who commands an entire realm.”
“And I will have successfully refined the Nascent Soul Formation Pill and become a fourth-order middle-grade Profound Alchemist famous throughout the Earth Evolution Realm.”
Li Wan’er murmured, “Let us meet again at our peaks!”
On the other side, Beast Taming lineage.
Jiang Yuyan looked at the cultivation method jade slip on the table, her expression changing slightly.
Interesting. This Crow Perching Body did not seem to be entirely disadvantageous. It also had some benefits for herself and was suitable for cultivating the Daoist Son’s created Beast-Borrowing Cultivation Path.
Perhaps the Golden Aperture Gu within her body could be transformed from enemy to ally through beast taming methods, contracted as a shared-partner beast, and thus allow her to escape the Demon Sect’s control.
‘To create such an unbelievable Beast-Borrowing Cultivation Method, the Daoist Son will definitely not stop at the Nascent Soul True Monarch realm in the future.’
Jiang Yuyan’s gaze flowed as she looked toward the sky outside the window, various thoughts rising within her heart.
……
Immortal Alliance, Pingchen County, Railway Station.
“Are you not planning to stay a few more days?”
Madam Huang Xiaoling was somewhat reluctant.
She had arranged two hundred female cultivators with clean backgrounds, all possessing first-class appearances and figures.
Yet her son had only met five of them, and none succeeded. She was so angry that she was extremely frustrated.
“Yes, stay a few more days.”
Chen Dong was also reluctant.
After this departure, who knew how many years would pass before they could meet again?
“Rest assured, I will not fail.”
Chen Beiwu understood his parents’ worries and smiled confidently.
Hearing this, Huang Xiaoling and Chen Dong exchanged glances. The hearts they had originally been hanging finally calmed down.
After boarding the train, Chen Beiwu discovered that someone had already taken his seat.
“Long time no see.”
Sensing his gaze, Xu Ziqing turned her head and looked at Chen Beiwu with a brilliant smile.
“You requested leave in advance?” Chen Beiwu raised an eyebrow.
“Of course.” Xu Ziqing stood up and linked arms with Chen Beiwu’s right arm, saying with a double meaning, “On the path of cultivation, your progress is faster than everyone else’s. I cannot even catch up to you.”
“This time, I want to ride the train with you once more, and at Jade Purity Immortal Sect, personally witness you proving the Dao and becoming a True Monarch!”
“Xu Lingling did not come with you?” Chen Beiwu was somewhat surprised.
Xu Ziqing had failed once when forming her Golden Core. The probability of successfully forming one next time was extremely low.
To avoid a tragic fate and another failed Golden Core formation, he had specifically invited Xu Ziqing to go to Jade Purity Immortal Sect, allowing her to personally comprehend the process of a Nascent Soul True Monarch proving the Dao. It might provide some assistance, and definitely was not for showing off in front of old classmates.
As for Xu Lingling, she had already achieved Golden Core and would next aim for Nascent Soul True Monarch, so she was naturally also among those Chen Beiwu invited.
“Hehe, I came secretly. Lingling also received an invitation. She should be heading directly to Jade Purity Immortal Sect later.” Xu Ziqing covered her mouth and laughed, looking delighted that her secret plan had succeeded.
“How is your cultivation of 《Primordial Origin Dragon-Tiger Kan-Li Secret Record》?” Chen Beiwu glanced at Xu Ziqing.
“I have already successfully entered the basics.” Xu Ziqing’s face reddened slightly, somewhat embarrassed.
Everyone said relying on others was inferior to relying on oneself.
But when even she herself could not be relied upon, she could only depend on her old classmate.
……
After returning to Jade Purity Immortal Sect, Chen Beiwu took out his phone and used his authority as the Student Department Head to arrange cave abodes closer to Water Evolution Residence for Xu Ziqing and Xu Lingling in advance.
Then he took out the Nascent Soul formation resources he had prepared long ago.
A Myriad Forms Profound Grass.
A Purple Mansion Nurturing Infant Pill.
A strand of Origin Heavenly Stellar Dao Source.
Two Nascent Soul Formation Pills, two King Blood Solid Origin Pills.
The first three were prepared by Chen Beiwu for himself, while the Nascent Soul Formation Pills and King Blood Solid Origin Pills placed at the end were for insurance.
The reason was simple. During Chen Beiwu’s process of proving the Dao and becoming a True Monarch, Iron Egg and Xuele could break through their bloodline shackles and advance to fourth-realm Demon Kings at any moment due to feedback from the shared-partner contract.
“Take the pills first.”
Chen Beiwu handed the Nascent Soul Formation Pills to Iron Egg and Xuele.
Having the two little fellows consume the pills ahead of time was not to have them refine them immediately, but to prevent the Nascent Soul Formation Pills from being exposed.
After swallowing the Nascent Soul Formation Pills, Iron Egg and Xuele could use spiritual power to isolate them and preserve the medicinal effects. If necessary, they could begin refining the pill’s power at any time.
“Almost ready!”
After completing the preparations, Chen Beiwu took out his phone and reported to Jade Purity Immortal Sect.
A cultivator proving the Dao and becoming a Nascent Soul True Monarch could trigger heaven and earth spiritual energy over an extremely vast range. If one did not report to the sect beforehand, it would be an illegal advancement and result in punishment.
“Buzz.”
At this moment, the phone vibrated.
Chen Beiwu glanced at the screen and discovered that the caller was Student Department Publicity Head Tong Hui.
Tong Hui was a tall and thin, relatively ordinary-looking yet valiant female cultivator. Her cultivation was at Golden Core Perfection, making her one of the strongest people within the Student Department. However, her personality was gentle and she was not skilled in combat.
“Chief, forgive me for disturbing you. I am Tong Hui from the Student Department Publicity Office.”
“Junior Sister Tong, did something happen with the cave abode arrangements?” Chen Beiwu asked.
“No, the cave abode has already been arranged.” Tong Hui spoke efficiently. “Senior Brother Chen, I heard that you will soon prove the Dao and become a True Monarch?”
“That is correct.” Chen Beiwu was brief, wanting to see what exactly the other party intended.
“It is like this. Senior Brother Chen, according to sect records, you are the first chief disciple genius in the sect’s thousand-year history to attempt proving the Dao and becoming a Nascent Soul True Monarch at the age of eighty-eight.
“If successful, you will create the record of becoming the youngest Nascent Soul True Monarch in the history of the Thirteen Immortal Sects.
“The Publicity Office wishes to record this scene that is worthy of being written into history for promotional purposes. We hope Chief Senior Brother can agree.”
Tong Hui took a deep breath, trying her best to make her words clear and sincere, afraid that Senior Brother Chen would misunderstand.
“Oh? How will it be recorded?” Chen Beiwu became interested.
He was not interested in fame, nor did he care about being written into history.
However, if this matter could refresh the records of the Thirteen Immortal Sects and allow him to obtain some Immortal Alliance fortune, then it was worth considering.
The premise was that the Publicity Office’s request was not excessive.
Tong Hui felt delighted. She knew that Chief Senior Brother cared about the sect and valued reputation. Otherwise, he would not have opened lectures to teach, spread the Dao of Nascent Pills, and obtained the title of Foundation Establishment Opening Dao Master.
“Senior Brother Chen, rest assured. This time, the Light-Trace Recording will only record the changes in the sect’s heaven and earth spiritual energy tides and your Heavenly Stellar Dharma Form manifestation. It will not affect your proving the Dao.”
“Of course, if Senior Brother Chen has any concerns, this Light-Trace Recording can also be destroyed at any time.”
“Alright.”
Chen Beiwu thought for a moment and did not refuse.
The Publicity Office had clearly carefully considered their request before making it. They deliberately avoided cultivator secrets and only sought to record the external heavenly phenomena and Heavenly Stellar Dharma Form.
Such phenomena were vast and majestic. Even if the Publicity Office did not record them, when he successfully proved the Dao and became a Nascent Soul True Monarch, they would inevitably be sensed by countless powerful cultivators within the sect. It could not be considered a secret at all.
Put simply, even if the Publicity Office did not record it, other sect cultivators might record the heavenly phenomena when the time came.
The reason the Publicity Office asked him beforehand was not only to preserve records and promote the sect, but also because they feared offending him, their direct superior—the Student Department Head.
“Thank you for your approval, Chief Senior Brother.” Tong Hui was overjoyed.
“However, I do have one thought.” Chen Beiwu changed the subject.
“Please enlighten me, Senior Brother Chen. The Publicity Office will cooperate and consider it with full effort.” Tong Hui’s heart skipped a beat, fearing unexpected complications.
“Compared to merely recording it, Junior Sister Tong, do you think a live broadcast would have more appeal, attract more attention, and draw more cultivators to watch?”
Chen Beiwu, who had started out through live broadcasting, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and made a suggestion.
“!!!”
Hearing this, Tong Hui remained silent for a moment. She was shocked by Chen Beiwu’s idea, and then a trace of excitement surged within her heart.
