Spirit Vein Advancement, Heavenly Earth Spirit Peach
After Xu Ganyang returned the Scarlet Sun Void-Burning Furnace, the Old Clan Leader went to Spirit Isle Lake and found Chen Nianzhi.
He found Chen Nianzhi and couldn't help but ask excitedly, "Now that we have two more Golden Core realm cultivators, do you think we should make a move against Earth Lion Ridge?"
"No rush."
At this moment, Chen Nianzhi shook his head. In another sixteen or seventeen years, he would be able to break through to the Golden Core realm realm.
Jiang Linglong will also break through to the Golden Core Middle Stage within ten years. At that time, the strength of the Heavenly Ruins Alliance will greatly increase, which will be the best time to deal with the Earth Lion Ridge.
And most importantly, this process may be shortened.
Thoughts flickered in Chen Nianzhi's mind as she looked at the Spirit Peach Tree before her.
At the age of fifteen, he used the Hongmeng Purple Qi to advance this Spirit Peach Tree. In the blink of an eye, one hundred and sixty years have passed, and this Spirit Peach Tree has finally undergone another great transformation, advancing to the Tier 4 Low-Grade level.
After this promotion, the Spirit Peach Tree will take ten years to flower, ten years to bear fruit, and another ten years to mature.
From now on, the Spirit Peach will ripen once every thirty years, and each time nine Tier 4 Spirit Peach will be produced.
Tier 4 Spirit Peach is considered the complete form of Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root and can be called a ' Heavenly Earth Spirit Peach '.
As for its function, Chen Nianzhi, with his current cultivation level, observed and deduced it, and has roughly understood its effect.
From now on, it will take ten years to refine one Heavenly Earth Spirit Peach, and consuming it can increase one's cultivation by thirty years. It is an extremely rare treasure even for Golden Core realm cultivators.
Moreover, this Heavenly Earth Spirit Peach contains the energy of creation; consuming it can not only enhance one's cultivation but also nourish the cultivator's Golden Core realm.
Its Power of Creation is slightly inferior to that of the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree of Azure Sun Mountain, but it is far superior in terms of cultivation speed.
For most people, cultivation level is slightly more important. From this perspective, the value of the Spirit Peach Tree is slightly higher than that of the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree, and its potential is truly astonishing.
"This Spirit Peach..."
Only then did the Old Clan Leader notice the anomaly. He looked at the nine Spirit Peach on the Spirit Peach Tree, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink abruptly.
He observed it carefully several times, and felt the Spirit Vein in Spirit Isle Lake surging, giving him a vague sense of advancement.
"It seems that the Spirit Vein of Spirit Isle Lake are about to advance."
"Um."
Chen Nianzhi nodded. The Spirit Peach were almost ripe, and at that time, the Spirit Vein of Spirit Isle Lake would be promoted to the Tier 4.
With the existence of the Heavenly Earth Spirit Peach, Chen Nianzhi is confident that he can break through to the Golden Core realm realm within ten years, at which time his strength will definitely increase greatly.
Upon hearing his confirmation, the Old Clan Leader couldn't help but nod excitedly.
He said with a mixture of joy and a frown, "Over the years we've been acquiring large amounts of the Five Elements Essence to save for your advancement to a Tier 4 Life-bound Magical Treasure, but the timeframe is still a bit Taicang."
"It seems I need to arrange for the Lineage cultivators to prepare the Five Elements Essence for you as soon as possible."
"Is the Five Elements Essence insufficient?"
Chen Nianzhi frowned. Upgrading a magic Law Treasure to the Tier 4 Mid-Grade requires 500,000 spirit stones of the Five Spirit Stone Five Elements Essence.
Five items would cost a total of 2.5 million Spirit Stone. Although the Lineage has been able to save tens of thousands of Spirit Stone every year over the years, the expenses are actually quite large.
His five Life-bound Magical Treasure had been upgraded at great cost, and with the addition of several teleportation Teleportation Array Disk he had crafted over the years, even though the Lineage's treasury was wealthy, they couldn't afford this sum of money all at once.
Moreover, even if he had so many Spirit Stone, the output of the Five Elements Essence in the four states of the Heavenly Ruins Alliance would not be enough to support his simultaneous advancement of five Life-bound Magical Treasure.
If we had waited about twenty years as originally planned, we might have been able to collect one or two items. However, with only ten years available, the resources of the four states would probably not be enough.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Nianzhi said, "How about this? We can sell ten of the third-tier Life-Extending Spirit Apricot from the Lineage's inventory. That way, we can raise one million Spirit Stone."
"Then we will acquire the Five Elements Essence from the entire Chu Kingdom. No matter what, we must gather the Five Elements Essence needed for the Blazing Fire Return-to-Ruins Sword and the Heavenly River Ren-Water Sword within ten years."
"Hmm." The Old Clan Leader nodded, understanding the importance of the two Tier 4 Mid-Grade swords. "I will arrange for this to be taken care of."
The Old Clan Leader left in a flurry, while Chen Nianzhi continued her cultivation at Spirit Isle Lake.
"..."
Five months have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the Spirit Peach finally ripened, and the Spirit Vein of Spirit Isle Lake also advanced to the Tier 4.
Jiang Linglong arrived at Spirit Isle Lake, and the two of them worked together to set up the Teleportation Array array, connecting Spirit Isle Lake with the Teleportation Array of Azure Sun Mountain and Heavenly Ruins Lake.
After the two finished setting up the formation, Jiang Linglong happily grasped his hand and said, "Spirit Isle Lake has advanced to the Tier 4, and we now have Teleportation Array Disk. From now on, the two of us can finally live together permanently."
"Um."
Chen Nianzhi was also somewhat excited. Spirit Isle Lake was beautiful and magnificent, without the hustle and bustle of Azure Sun Mountain and Heavenly Ruins Lake, making it a good place for secluded cultivation.
Moreover, spending time with Jiang Linglong day and night, cultivating and discussing the Dao together, watching the long sunset in their spare time, playing the zither and dancing among the flowers, was something he had longed for for many years.
After picking nine Spirit Peach, Chen Nianzhi gave six to Jiang Linglong and calmly said, "These Spirit Peach ripen once every thirty years. With these Spirit Peach, neither of us will have to worry about our cultivation at the Golden Core realm stage."
As he spoke, a smile appeared on his face. Over the years, he had received much care from Jiang Linglong, and now it was finally time for him to repay Jiang Linglong.
Jiang Linglong only took three coins and handed three of them back.
She shook her head and said calmly, "This item is extremely precious. Since your clan has many people, you should keep more of it."
Chen Nianzhi smiled slightly and handed it over, saying, "If my Old Granduncle is breaking through to the Golden Core realm, then he will indeed need this."
"Right now, my Old Granduncle's cultivation has stagnated, so he doesn't need it. You can keep it as a gift for Qian Shu."
Jiang Linglong nodded and put the six Spirit Peach away.
The relationship between the Chen Clan and their master and disciple was different. Lin Qianshu was supported by her to get to where she is today. Variant Spirit Root, she could not inherit her mantle. She could only be considered a direct disciple rather than True Disciple of the lineage.
As for Jiang Linglong's other dozen or so disciples, they were all just Registered Disciple. Their talent and perseverance were not particularly strong, and most of them had not even broken through to the Purple Mansion and had already passed away on their Dao Path.
Chen Nianzhi was protected by the Old Clan Leader during his weakest period. The two supported each other all the way to where they are today, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are as close as father and son. Filial piety is the most important virtue, so Chen Nianzhi's feelings for the Old Clan Leader are naturally exceptionally deep.
After thinking for a moment, she said, "It just so happens that Cultivation Resources for the Ice Spirit Root are scarce in the Eastern Wilderness. In the future, we can use the Spirit Fruit from the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree to exchange for some for Old Granduncle."
"In this way, my Old Granduncle's Golden Core realm will be more abundant, and my Qian Shu will also be accelerated by obtaining the Spirit Peach."
Chen Nianzhi nodded in agreement. Although the Spirit Peach Tree could enhance cultivation, the Power of Creation it contained was not as great as that of the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree.
The Fire Spirit Fruit Tree possesses the wondrous Power of Creation to nurture Golden Core realm, and its Spirit Root Law Power is compatible with that of the Old Clan Leader.
