Chapter 410 - 310: Changzhou Southern Wilderness, Nine Rivers Old Land (Part 2)
[However, the resources on your body are almost exhausted, and as a Nascent Soul cultivator, you have even less wealth than a Golden Core cultivator.]
[And the unique distribution of Spiritual Qi in the Southern Wilderness Realm forces you to frequently use Spirit Stones to replenish True Essence to achieve high-speed escape.]
[The Southern Wilderness Realm is far from the reach of the Emperor, yet it is part of the territory of the Great Wei Immortal Dynasty. The dynasty is too lazy to care, and other state-level influences dare not interfere. The only Lord of the South Wilderness Domain seems to be slacking off. This environment gradually allows you to relax.]
[If there were a powerful sect, you wouldn’t mind ’borrowing’ some Spirit Stones, but unfortunately the strongest you encountered was merely a Golden Core Sect, and you disdain to strike at the weak. Moreover, the Spirit Stones obtained through destroying the sect might not even suffice for a month’s cultivation.]
[At the end of the year, you crossed a vast Spiritless Land and successfully arrived at Zeyun River.]
[The overwhelming Spiritual Qi fills you with ecstatic joy.]
[You greedily absorb the Spiritual Qi while cautiously investigating the situation at Zeyun River.]
[You arrive at a small cultivation realm to gather information.]
[In the year 11,732 of the Changtian Calendar, while touring this small cultivation realm called the Celestial Essence Cultivation Realm, you unexpectedly encounter a special young man.]
[The ring in the young man’s hand contains an incredibly powerful soul, seemingly transformed through Nascent Soul into a special soul body akin to a half-ghost cultivator. It can persist in the world, interfere with reality like a ghost cultivator without fear of Thunder Technique or Fire Technique, but the only drawback is that it cannot condense into a Nascent Soul again in this life.]
[You twitch your face slightly upon hearing the young man mention the well-known saying, "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west," which prompts you to use the Bai Ze Celestial Fortune Skill that you haven’t activated in years.]
[You discover that the boy’s Qi Fortune is quite favorable, but it is all concentrated on the ring in his hand.]
[In contrast, the girl who came to break the engagement carries notable Qi Fortune, resembling a Hidden Dragon emerging from the deep.]
[Without hesitation, you seize the ring...]
"Little Li, someone is watching us!" The back view of the young man who just broke off an engagement appears somewhat forlorn to everyone, and no one believes his words.
Previously, this boy was nothing more than a good-for-nothing.
Li Yanxiao hears a voice in his ear, causing him to pause.
"Could it be the ancestor of the Nie Family that has emerged and just arrived here?"
"No, a mere Fake Core would not trigger my spiritual warning."
"However, now it seems he has left, hopefully without noticing me."
The young man is a bit surprised, then seriously says, "Elder Bai, I will inevitably cultivate to the Golden Core, leave Celestial Essence, and seek the way for you to live a second life."
"It’s enough for you to have such a heart."
Elder Bai says with a sigh.
"Living a second life? Such a Secret Technique seems rare and likely has strong negative impacts."
A gentle voice gradually resonates.
An unknown gray-robed figure sits at a stone table and chair in the Li Family courtyard.
"Come, Daoist, please have a seat."
Xiang Wuji gestures slightly.
Li Yanxiao’s pupils contract, as he realizes neither the Li Family clan members nor other Li Family servants have noticed this person.
Li Yanxiao still wants to say something, but a tremor runs through his body, and in the next moment, a sense of depth, resembling boundless stars and sea, appears in his eyes.
It seems like he has become someone else.
"Come, Daoist. This is Soul-Calming Tea I brought from my hometown."
’Li Yanxiao’ pauses before taking the tea that Xiang Wuji offers and drinks it in one gulp.
He can’t help but praise it: "Good tea!"
The Spiritual Power contained in this tea rivals that of some high-grade Spirit Pills.
Jiuzhou Pills are divided into Nine Grades, Spiritual Pills into Three Grades.
Spiritual Pills are the kind of pill that only Nascent Soul to Divinity Transformation can consume.
This tea has greatly replenished his depleted soul.
"I don’t have much of this tea," Xiang Wuji says with a smile.
"Daoist, it seems you find me without ill intent."
Xiang Wuji looks at the young man in front of him. He knows that the one controlling the boy’s body is none other than the soul within the ring.
"Daoist Bai, right? You were at least a Nascent Soul Venerable before. I wonder about your level in the Alchemy Dao?"
A hint of pride appears on Elder Bai’s face as he replies, "Second-grade Spirit Pill Grandmaster."
First Grade is the lowest, Third Grade is the strongest.
Xiang Wuji’s smile widens.
"Daoist Bai, how about... we make a deal?"
Xiang Wuji has encountered alchemists before, and even in the Central Divine Realm of the Danyang Cultivation Realm, there is an Alchemy Dao Sect dedicated to refining pills for the Blood Demon Sect.
However, the strongest in the Danyang Cultivation Realm is only a Ninth-Grade Alchemist, and even in the top-tier Wei’e Pavilion, there’s only one First-grade Spirit Pill Grandmaster presiding.
A Third-Grade Spiritual Pill Grandmaster, if capable of creating precious Third-Grade Spirit Pills, possesses the ability to summon a Divinity Transformation’s aid.
The pills consumed by a Divinity Transformation are merely Third-Grade Spirit Pills and the legendary Immortal Pills.
A Second-grade Spirit Pill Grandmaster is already sufficient to refine most pills usable by Nascent Soul cultivators.
"You must know, among my enemies, there’s more than one Nascent Soul..."
Elder Bai can’t help but say upon hearing Xiang Wuji’s words.
"So what?"
[You encounter Bai Wangtian, previously a Nascent Soul cultivator and a Second-grade Spirit Pill Grandmaster, who is lurking in the ring.]
[You reach a deal with Bai Wangtian: you will search for an opportunity for him to reconstruct his physical body to live a second life, and Bai Wangtian will aid you with all his expertise in Alchemy Dao.]
[However, what you envision isn’t merely benefiting from his Alchemy Dao.]
[You aspire to create an Alchemy Dao Sect and use the sect’s resources to fully support your cultivation.]
[This is your resolve after meeting Bai Wangtian.]
An Alchemy Dao Sect is the most profitable among all types of sects, second to none.
Even those akin, like Artifact Dao Talisman, can’t compare to Alchemy Dao.
Xiang Wuji cultivated in the Celestial Dust Blessed Land for two hundred years, barely completing Early-Stage Nascent Soul cultivation through previous accumulation, the high enhancement of Undefeated Demon Blood, and past hoarded wealth.
Nascent Soul Middle and Late Stage cultivation is exponentially more difficult than previous stages.
More crucially, Xiang Wuji has arrived in a new place where he can’t rely on past-life information to gain countless opportunities for nearly unlimited resources.
Xiang Wuji initially planned to join a local Nascent Soul Sect as a Supreme Honored Guest Elder to obtain adequate resources.
He intended to slowly cultivate to Late-Stage Nascent Soul, reach Perfection, then study the Mortal Transformation Technique, researching Divinity Transformation.
Upon achieving Divinity Transformation, he would return to Ningzhou to seek revenge against the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance.
The vendetta of a gentleman is never late for ten years.
The lifespan of a Nascent Soul is at least two thousand years. Xiang Wuji is merely over four hundred years old, with over fifteen hundred years remaining for cultivation. Xiang Wuji isn’t in a hurry.
However, typical Nascent Soul Sect resources may not keep pace with the cultivation of Xiang Wuji, whose Undefeated Demon Blood has awakened nearly ninety percent.
Now having met Bai Wangtian, establishing a resource-rich Alchemy Dao Sect is optimal!
What’s more crucial is that Xiang Wuji possesses a special ability...
[You and Bai Wangtian reached an agreement.]
[You revealed your cultivation aura, earning Bai Wangtian’s basic trust.]
[At least after you made a Dao Oath, Bai Wangtian believes you won’t refine him to enhance your Divine Sense cultivation.]
[With you as his hope, Bai Wangtian pays less attention to Li Yanxiao, only leaving him with a legacy. Whether Li Yanxiao will fade into obscurity without his golden finger, you don’t particularly care.]
[Through Elder Bai’s narration and years of experience in the Celestial Essence Cultivation Realm, you gain some understanding of the power distribution in Zeyun River.]
[You begin to scour the entire Celestial Essence Cultivation Realm, then, under Bai Wangtian’s incredulous gaze, easily find two good seedlings for alchemy.]
[In the year 11,734 of the Changtian Calendar, you arrive at the central island of Zeyun River, Celestial Sea Island, Celestial Sea Cultivation Realm...]
