Great Fortune Shines Down

Jiang Wanyue and Song Wen emerged from their respective temporary cave abode.

"The miasma in the Fengdu Poison Sea seems to be stirring somewhat strangely," Song Wen said first.

Jiang Wanyue nodded slightly.

"Let's go take a look."

Afterwards, the two put away their respective formations and flew into the air to the Fengdu Poison Sea, thousands of miles away.

Upon reaching the Sea of Poison, and seeing the miasma swirling like clouds within, Jiang Wanyue said.

"The miasma seems to be weakening; the period when the poisonous miasma in the Sea of Poison should be ending is nearing its end."

"We'll know once we go to other places to take a look," Song Wen said.

The miasma within the Fengdu Poison Sea naturally fluctuates and changes over time.

Therefore, the fact that the miasma is weakening only in this area does not prove that the miasma in the entire Fengdu Poison Sea is weakening.

Both traveled slowly along the edge of the Fengdu Poison Sea, flying for tens of thousands of miles, and the miasma they encountered along the way was significantly reduced.

"It seems the time for the poisonous miasma to weaken has indeed come," Song Wen said.

"Based on past experience, the miasma concentration will decrease to its lowest level within one to two days, and then remain there for about sixty days before gradually recovering. Why don't we stay here and wait until the miasma stops weakening before rushing into the sea of poison?" Jiang Wanyue suggested.

"That's exactly what I was thinking," Song Wen said.

The two then landed on a mountaintop outside the Poison Sea, gazing at the ever-changing miasma within.

Jiang Wanyue suddenly frowned slightly, revealing a hint of worry.

"Gu Huang, the people from the Purple Star Immortal Sect will definitely be active in this area of the northwest of the Poison Sea. Could we possibly run into them?"

Song Wen said, "Although both sides are searching for treasure in the Northwest region, the area is vast, and with the miasma interfering with Divine Sense and disrupting residual auras, it's not easy to encounter each other. Moreover, even if we do encounter each other, unless the Purple Star Immortal Sect Profound Immortal Yuxiao to accompany us, the two of us will have no problem surviving."

"But... every time they explore the Fengdu Poison Sea, the Purple Star Immortal Sect sends out Profound Immortal Yuxiao to protect their disciples," Jiang Wanyue said.

Song Wen was speechless.

"Then... we two certainly need to proceed with caution."

"We can only be more careful. In order to refine the spirit medicine needed for the Grand Clarity Soul-Nourishing Pill, we have to brave some dangers," Jiang Wanyue said.

Two days passed quickly.

The dark green miasma in front of them had turned into a hazy, pale green.

Jiang Wanyue suddenly spoke up.

"Extreme Yin; after nearly an hour, the concentration of miasma seems to Wuming decrease."

"That's true," Song Wen said.

"Could it be that the miasma concentration has weakened to its lowest level?" Jiang Wanyue asked, not entirely certain.

Song Wen pondered for a moment, then replied.

"Wait another hour. If the miasma concentration doesn't change significantly, then we'll enter the Fengdu Poison Sea."

"Good."

One hour later.

The two took to the air and flew into the poisonous miasma that filled the sky.

A layer of shimmering white spiritual light surrounded Jiang Wanyue, keeping the poisonous miasma outside her body.

A thin layer of withered, yellowish aura clung to Song Wen.

As they flew through the air, they gazed at the map that had appeared in mid-air before them.

"According to the map, about 100,000 miles to the left and forward, the people of the Purple Star Immortal Sect once discovered a Glazed Immortal Fruit. Shall we go and take a look?" Jiang Wanyue asked.

"Go," Song Wen said.

The Glazed Immortal Fruit is one of the main ingredients of the Grand Clarity Soul-Nourishing Pill. Although it has been harvested, the place that can nurture such heavenly materials and earthly treasures must have something special about it.

The two then slightly adjusted their direction of travel.

After traveling thousands of miles, the concentration of miasma suddenly dropped sharply, becoming so thin that it was almost invisible.

The miasma within the Fengdu Poison Sea is inherently uneven in density.

The two were not surprised by this.

However, several poisonous insects suddenly emerged from the cracks in the ground below and pounced on the two of them.

The venomous insect resembled a spider but had wings and moved with incredible speed, closing in on the two in an instant.

A Blood Tide suddenly surged from beneath Song Wen's feet, separating the two men from several poisonous insects.

The poisonous insects seemed to be rushing too fast and couldn't stop, plunging headlong into the Blood Tide.

They thrashed violently a few times, then were slowly swallowed by the Blood Tide, and never moved again.

"Your Life-Bound Treasure is quite interesting. However, why would a righteous cultivator like you, who is skilled in Thunder Method, refine a Blood Dao treasure as his Life-Bound Treasure?" Jiang Wanyue asked with great interest.

"At that time, I had just entered the Golden Core stage, my cultivation was low, my knowledge was shallow, and I had no master to guide me. But I happened to obtain the method of refining this treasure, so I refined it into my Life-Bound Treasure." Song Wen then gave a perfunctory reply.

" From the Golden Core stage to the Lingxu Dao Immortal Realm, it must take at least tens of thousands of years. Since you chose it randomly back then, haven't you thought about changing your Life-Bound Treasure after all these years?" Jiang Wanyue said.

"This thing is quite handy to use and has some power, so I haven't thought about replacing it," Song Wen said.

Jiang Wanyue pursed her lips, finally understanding— Song Wen's seemingly useless Life-Bound Treasure must have its own powerful aspects.

As the two chatted, they ventured deeper into the Fengdu Poison Sea.

Every so often, the concentration of miasma would change drastically, sometimes strong, sometimes weak, without warning; however, no matter how the concentration of miasma changed, it did not pose a threat to the two; during this time, poisonous insects or Demon Beast would occasionally appear, but the two easily dealt with them.

However, the two did not see a single spirit medicine along their journey, not even a low-grade first or second-tier one.

Before long, the two finally arrived at the place where they had previously discovered the Glazed Immortal Fruit.

It was a mountain ravine, extremely narrow.

But unlike other parts of the Poison Sea, this ravine is rich in Spiritual Qi, so much so that there is not a trace of miasma.

This is because, in the center of the ravine, there is a sacred spring that continuously releases Spiritual Qi and Immortal Spiritual Qi, forcefully repelling the surrounding miasma.

Inside the mountain valley, the grass was lush and the trees were dense, and you could even see a few spirit medicine of considerable quality.

Beside that sacred spring, there grew a small tree several feet tall.

Hanging from the treetop are three fist-sized fruits, transparent as glass, with wisps of seven-colored mystical energy faintly visible inside.

"This is the Glazed Immortal Fruit!"

Jiang Wanyue's voice rose unconsciously, revealing an undisguised excitement.

"And these three fruits are all ripe enough to be used in medicine!"

Jiang Wanyue moved swiftly, about to pounce on the sapling.

Upon first entering the Fengdu Poison Sea, I encountered one of the main ingredients needed to refine the Grand Clarity Soul-Nourishing Pill, and there were three of them at once! How could I not be excited!

But Song Wen grabbed him back.

"Do not act rashly. The Spiritual Qi and Immortal Spiritual Qi intertwine here, yet there are no Demon Beast or poisonous insects to be seen. There is a possibility that an even stronger beast is lurking."
