"I knew you wanted this."
Star Fairy nodded and took out a Star God Pearl from her sleeve, as though she had anticipated this long ago.
For immortals like Chen Nianzhi, who had only recently ascended, treasures that increased cultivation speed were undoubtedly the most important.
In contrast, Star Fairy's cultivation had reached the ninth level of Ascension. Her immortal essence had long reached a point where it could advance no further, so she had greater need for a secret treasure like the Yin-Yang Taiji Pill.
For cultivators like Star Fairy at the ninth level of Ascension, their mana had already reached the utmost limit of the Ascension realm. By ordinary cultivation methods, it was fundamentally impossible to advance any further.
Only by breaking that limit and surpassing the boundaries of the Ascension realm could one forge the realm of half-step Earth Immortal.
After being consumed, the Yin-Yang Taiji Pill could rapidly increase the immortal essence within an immortal's body.
If one could borrow the power of that instantaneously surging immortal essence, perhaps one could attempt to charge into the half-step Earth Immortal realm.
Although the Yin-Yang Taiji Pill's rank was limited, and it could only increase the mana of a ninth-level Ascension cultivator by ten or twenty percent, taking another step after reaching the top of a hundred-foot pole was already difficult. With this item's aid, one would ultimately have a little more confidence.
The reason Star Fairy and Moon Princess wanted the Yin-Yang Taiji Pill was, in truth, to prepare for their future attempts to break through into the half-step Earth Immortal realm.
One had to know that once they broke through into the half-step Earth Immortal realm, their status would become utterly different from before.
Cultivators in the half-step Earth Immortal realm had already surpassed the limits
