Azure Luan Continent

"To be honest, I've come to you this time to form an alliance and compete for the Heavenly Dao Qi."

Daoist Zixu spoke slowly and deliberately, but his eyes were fixed on Chen Nianzhi with a serious expression.

The Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul is extremely rare. Such beings possess the potential of Primordial Spirit Dao Lord, and as long as they do not perish halfway, they can almost always cultivate to the Nascent Soul Great Perfection realm in the future.

Such beings, even across the Vast Expanse Hundred Continents, are generally the Clan Master or sect masters of powerful Nascent Soul factions, and they even have a 20-30% chance of breaking through to the Primordial Spirit Dao Lord realm in the future.

Although this Daoist Zixu was Bu Fan talent and potential, he dared not say that he could definitely obtain the Heavenly Dao Qi. Even if he could not form an alliance with Chen Nianzhi today, he would find someone else to form an alliance with and compete for it.

Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi asked, "An alliance is possible, but Heavenly Dao Qi is extremely rare. If we could obtain three strands of Heavenly Dao Qi, then things would be much easier."

"But if we can't get three, how should we distribute them?"

"This..." The Daoist Zixu's heart sank slightly. After a long while, he said, "To avoid someone contributing without exerting their full strength, if the Heavenly Dao Qi is insufficient in the end, then let the three of us distribute it according to the amount of effort we put in."

"Can."

Chen Nianzhi nodded, and this was the only solution that was temporarily settled.

Seeing that Chen Nianzhi agreed, Daoist Zixu revealed a hint of confidence. He had lived for over a thousand years, including occupying Heavenly Lake Island for several hundred years.

Over the years, possessing Tier-5 Earth Vein and Spirit Vein, he has accumulated more resources than many True Lord who have just entered the Nascent Soul.

In terms of his background, he was confident that he was no less capable than the direct descendants of major sects, and once he revealed all of his abilities, he believed that his achievements would be truly astonishing.

Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that Chen Nianzhi had the backup plan of the True Lord Haoran, and both he and Jiang Linglong were Innate Great Luo Golden Core, whose backgrounds were far beyond what he could compare to.

Even without the help of Daoist Zixu, they were confident they could obtain two or three strands of Heavenly Dao Qi. The reason they agreed to form an alliance with him was simply to share some of their burden and, incidentally, to make a good friend.

After all, all three were exceptionally talented individuals. This Daoist Zixu possessed Dao Body body and had already refined his Life-bound Spirit Treasure early on, which was enough to be considered fortuitous opportunity.

Most importantly, his Dao heart was unwavering. He was willing to wait six hundred years for the fortuitous opportunity to forge Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul. This Dao heart and perseverance were enough to surpass most Nascent Soul True Lord.

Becoming friends with such a person might allow us to help each other out in the future.

Having decided to cooperate, the two simply signed a contract and made Heart-Demon Oath to each other.

With the foundation of cooperation laid, the two grew closer without realizing it. Daoist Zixu picked up a cup of spiritual tea and, offering it as a toast to Chen Nianzhi instead of wine, said:

"With this collaboration, we are sure to produce three world-renowned Nascent Heavenly Dao Nascent Soul, who may even become a legendary figure in the future."

I hope so.

Chen Nianzhi smiled and took a small sip of tea.

Changing the subject, Chen Nianzhi remembered what he was currently lacking and asked, "I have now obtained a Fifth-Tier Spirit Vein and am preparing to begin refining the Nirvana Pool."

"Fellow Daoist has cultivated for a thousand years, and your knowledge and experience must far surpass Non-Self. I wonder if you have ever seen the Soul-Returning Jade?"

"Refine the Nirvana Pool?"

Daoist Zixu frowned, stroked his beard, and pondered for a moment before saying, "The Soul-Returning Jade is extremely rare. I only saw it once three hundred years ago at the Exchange Fair in the Azure Luan Continent."

"Unfortunately, that Soul-Returning Jade sold for two hundred Heavenly Crystal at the time, its value comparable to a mid- Mid-Grade Demon-Refining Supreme Treasure. I could only watch helplessly as it was bought by a powerful Nascent Soul Immortal."

Daoist Zixu explained slowly, and after a long while, he said with a wry smile, "The Nirvana Pool can not only help Nascent Soul True Lord reshape their physical bodies, but it is also a first-class healing treasure, capable of healing almost all injuries at the Nascent Soul level."

"Whether used personally or rented to True Lord whose physical body has been destroyed, this item is an extremely worthwhile deal. It can be said that once successfully refined, it will become a foundation for countless ages..."

"Therefore, they are always in high demand, so you need to prepare in advance if you want to buy one."

After Daoist Zixu finished speaking, Chen Nianzhi nodded.

He knew this. For example, the Nirvana Pool of the Ji Clan was currently rented out by a friend of the Ji Clan Chief for healing, so that cultivators whose physical bodies were destroyed during the monster chaos were not qualified to enter it to rebuild their bodies.

Although the Nirvana Pool is hard to find, Daoist Zixu still provided some good information.

With this thought in mind, Chen Nianzhi smiled and asked, "I only know that Azure Luan Continent is one of the Vast Expanse Hundred Continents, but I don't know much about it. I hope you can explain it to me."

"That Azure Luan Continent..."

Daoist Zixu smiled slightly and began to tell Chen Nianzhi about the customs and traditions of the Vast Expanse Hundred Continents.

The Hundred Continents near the Vast Expanse Marshes are called the Vast Expanse Hundred Continents because of their proximity to the Vast Expanse Marshes, but they also have another name.

' Three Vein Ancient Region '

These so-called three mountain ranges refer to three famous mountains in the Vast Expanse Hundred Continents: the Heaven's Spine Mountains, the Guyuan Mountains, and the Azure Luan Mountains.

These three ancient mountains are among the thirty-six famous mountains and rivers in the Eastern Wilderness.

The famous mountains and rivers of the Eastern Wilderness are said to gather the power of the dragon veins of heaven and earth, and like the Water-Origin Ancestral Vein of the Vast Sea, they possess the potential to advance to the Ancestral Vein.

Of these three ancient mountains, the Heaven's Spine Mountains is closest to the Vast Expanse Marshes. It is said that the Heaven's Spine Dragon Vein of Tianji was taken away by the Black Dragon Demon Ancestor long ago, and it has not been fully restored even after tens of thousands of years.

The Azure Luan Mountains is located 40 million miles east of the Ji Continent, making it a core area among the Vast Expanse Hundred Continents.

Legend has it that as early as 100,000 years ago, a Azure Luan Demon Ancestor attained enlightenment in the Azure Luan Mountains and cultivated all the way to the Dao Lord realm, hence the name Azure Luan Mountains.

The Azure Luan Demon Ancestor has long since passed away, and the dragon veins in the Azure Luan Mountains have recovered to their peak state, and are now full of vitality, with the possibility of possessing a trace of the Ancestral Vein.

The Azure Luan Mountains is now occupied by the Flying Feather Pavilion, a super sect of the Human Race. The sect leader of this lineage has already received the Earth Soul and his cultivation has reached the Half-Step Pure Yang realm.

With its formidable strength, and the fact that the Azure Luan Mountains is located in the heart of the Vast Expanse Hundred Continents, the Azure Luan Continent became a place for Nascent Soul True Lord from the Three Vein Ancient Region to exchange goods.

Daoist Zixu recounted his story in detail, then said with a wry smile, "Back in the day, I made a name for myself and was fortunate enough to receive an invitation from the Flying Feather Pavilion to participate in the True Lord's Exchange Fair in the Azure Luan Continent."

"But when I got there, I realized that every treasure the True Lord was trading was worth a fortune, and my net worth was simply not enough to compare."

He shook his head with a wry smile, then looked at Chen Nianzhi and said, "With your current strength and status, you'll probably be qualified to attend the next Exchange Fair."
