Wei Xuyuan Broke Through to the Purple Mansion Realm
"This spirit shell is filled with the power of Ren Water. To fully unleash its power, it would be best to also have another fire-attribute rare and heavenly materials and earthly treasures."
"A fire-attribute heavenly materials and earthly treasures?"
The Old Clan Leader frowned; the Lineage did not yet possess any pure third-tier fire-attribute treasures.
The Purple-Bearing Azure Gold in the clan's treasury does possess the three attributes of water, metal, and fire, but its attributes are too mixed. It's fine as a primary material, but using it as an auxiliary material would be too wasteful.
Lacking a fire-attribute heavenly materials and earthly treasures, Chen Nianzhi frowned, then said, "In thirteen years, it will be the Chu Kingdom Purple-Abode Barter Assembly. I also plan to purchase some treasures then, so I'll go and buy them all at once."
"It just so happens that our joint deduction of this natal Life-bound Magical Treasure will also take some time."
The Old Clan Leader nodded and said with a smile, "That's the only way."
Putting that topic aside for now, Chen Nianzhi suddenly remembered the pills she had brought back.
He first gave the Dark Jade Pill to the Old Clan Leader to take back to the patriarch's treasury, then took out a few Purple-Nurture Pill and Spirit-Nourishing Pill and gave them to the Old Clan Leader before taking out the Dharma-Origin Pill and saying...
"This Dharma-Origin Pill can increase one's cultivation by thirty years."
"If we each take one of these pills, our cultivation will advance to the next level."
The Old Clan Leader nodded, took a Dharma-Origin Pill and treasured it, not intending to take it immediately.
He has been at the Purple Mansion level for over nine years now, and has refined three Tier 3 Spirit Peach. Each Spirit Peach can increase his cultivation by ten years, and his cultivation is now close to breaking through to the Second Layer of Purple Mansion realm.
He plans to take it after his breakthrough, at which point he estimates he'll soon be able to reach the threshold of the Third-Layer Purple Mansion realm.
Chen Nianzhi immediately took it the next day. Without the Spirit Peach, it would probably have taken him fifty or sixty years to break through to the first level of cultivation. Now, after taking the Dharma-Origin Pill, he broke through to the Second Layer of Purple Mansion realm in just a few days.
After breaking through to the Second Layer of Purple Mansion realm, Chen Nianzhi's life gradually returned to its usual tranquility.
In the days that followed, he cultivated while working with the Old Clan Leader to deduce the method of crafting his Life-Bound Array Instrument.
His work wasn't much. The Old Clan Leader was in charge of researching and experimenting with his Life-Bound Array Pattern and various other array patterns. Chen Nianzhi only needed to provide inspiration and then deduce the Old Clan Leader's results.
This job wasn't time-consuming, but it required Chen Nianzhi to go to Peaceful Sun City every now and then. Fortunately, with the Scarlet Blood Boat, the distance of six thousand miles only took an hour, so it wouldn't interfere with Chen Nianzhi's cultivation.
Six years passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Nianzhi finally succeeded in cultivating the Bing Fire Divine Thunder and the Jade Spirit Eyes, while the Old Clan Leader also cultivated to the Third-Layer Purple Mansion realm.
"..."
After many years, the Spirit Vein of Peaceful Sun City have unknowingly advanced to the third rank.
Inside the Spirit Pool Hall, two figures sat facing each other, gazing at the illusory array patterns before them, lost in thought.
"The method for crafting this Life-Bound Array Instrument is only one step away from completion."
"It's a pity that we lack a Divine Ability that combines water and fire."
The Old Clan Leader shook his head and said that, according to the Life-Bound Array Pattern deduced by the two, the method of refining this Life-Bound Array Instrument should be rich in three kinds of Divine Ability power.
However, the Chen Clan did not possess the method of water and fire array patterns, and therefore could not fully unleash the power of the Ren Water and the fire-attribute heavenly materials and earthly treasures of the Spirit Clam Pearl.
Chen Nianzhi pondered for a moment, then said, "The Wei Immortal Clan of Mount Tian'e sent an invitation, saying that Wei Xuyuan has successfully broken through to the Purple Mansion realm and invited me to a banquet."
"Wei Xuyuan's Life-bound Magical Treasure is called the ' Yin-Yang Treasure Vase,' and the Divine Ability it contains, the ' Yin-Yang Annihilation Treasure-Vase Aura, ' is a top-tier area-of -Divine Ability, and its power is rare among those of the same level."
"After I go there, I'll see if I can exchange that Life-bound Magical Treasure for it."
"The method of crafting Life-bound Magical Treasure is related to the Lineage's inheritance, and Wei Xuyuan is cultivating the Yin-Yang Treasure Vase."
The Old Granduncle frowned, and still hesitated, saying, "I'm afraid he might not agree."
"It's alright." Chen Nianzhi wasn't used to making overly confident statements, but she still said, "Wei Xuyuan and I have been friends for many years, and we still have some connection."
"..."
A few days later, Chen Nianzhi piloted the Purple-Blood Boat out of Spirit Isle Lake and flew straight towards Mount Tian'e.
Mount Tian'e is only a little over 7,000 li away from Darksteel Mountain, and it is less than 20,000 li away from Spirit Isle Lake. He arrived at Mount Tian'e in just a few hours.
At this moment, Mount Tian'e was bustling with people. The cultivators of the Wei Immortal Clan were all beaming with pride, and many other immortal clans from Yang Province had also gathered here.
He had just arrived a hundred miles from Mount Tian'e when he saw a figure coming to greet him, followed by a hearty laugh.
"Brother Nianzhi, I've been waiting for you to come!"
The newcomer was Wei Xuyuan. He stepped forward, grabbed Chen Nianzhi's sleeve, and enthusiastically pulled him inside.
"Come, come, let me introduce you to some fellow practitioners from Yang Province."
"Oh."
Chen Nianzhi smiled slightly and then landed on Mount Tian'e.
At this moment, dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators and three Purple Mansion cultivators have gathered on Mount Tian'e.
Chen Nianzhi recognized one of these people, such as Pan Boyuan in the purple robe. Chen Nianzhi the other two, but she had probably heard of them.
Wei Xuyuan pulled Chen Nianzhi Chen Nianzhi and quickly introduced him, saying, "This Brother Pan needs no introduction."
"This Fairy Qingxuan is the Great Elder of the Wang Clan of the Purple Mansion Immortal Clan in Boyang Commandery."
Chen Nianzhi raised her eyebrows and noticed that the Fairy Qingxuan had delicate features and looked to be only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.
Wang Qingxuan's cultivation level is as high as the Fifth Purple Mansion Layer realm, and it is said that she is nearly three hundred years old. The reason why she looks so young is obviously because of her profound Law Power.
This is also the norm for cultivators. Cultivators above the Purple Mansion have their physical bodies constantly nurtured and tempered by Law Power, and their physical strength is actually getting closer and closer to that of Demon Beast of the same level.
Righteous cultivators possess pure and radiant Law Power. After reaching a high level of cultivation, their physical bodies become increasingly perfect, and their strength is not much different from that of ordinary Demon Race of the same level.
As their physical bodies grow stronger, cultivators almost remain perpetually young, only aging rapidly during the last ten years or so when their Qi and Blood are depleted.
The last person was a burly man, a member of the Yun Immortal Clan of Yunyang Commandery, whose cultivation Purple Mansion was only at the Third-Layer Purple Mansion realm.
After Wei Xuyuan finished introducing himself to everyone, the two quickly bowed, and Wang Qingxuan smiled and said...
"I have long heard of the Border Province Sword Immortal, and seeing you today, I understand that your reputation is indeed well-deserved."
"You flatter me, fairy."
Chen Nianzhi smiled slightly and said modestly.
Although Wei Xuyuan was the main character this time, he was still overshadowed by Chen Nianzhi.
After the Battle of Heavenly Python Lake, who doesn't know that Chen Nianzhi has a bright future ahead of him? Even cultivators in the Purple Mansion Late Stage have to treat him as an equal.
Although the others present were also cultivators of the Purple Mansion, they still unconsciously felt a bit inferior in front of Chen Nianzhi.
