Nirvana Immortal Apricot Tree
Upon returning to Qingyuan Mountain, he discovered that the Old Clan Leader had also returned to Qingyuan Mountain, a rare occurrence.
Upon seeing him, the Old Clan Leader asked with some delight, "When did you break through to the Foundation Establishment Second Layer?"
"I only broke through six months ago."
Chen Nianzhi replied that with the help of the Tier 2 Spirit Peach, he had accumulated enough True Essence half a year ago, so his breakthrough was a natural outcome.
Chen Qinghao was also somewhat envious, and said with admiration, "To break through to the second level of the Foundation Establishment Foundation Establishment Realm in just six years, this speed is probably comparable to that of a genius with Heavenly Spirit Root."
"The Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root is indeed Bu Fan; it's only at the Tier 2, yet it can make one's cultivation advance by leaps and bounds."
"If one day this thing grows to its limit, even Nascent Soul True Lord would probably covet it."
Upon hearing this, the Old Clan Leader smiled slightly and said, "All Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root are wondrous creations of heaven and earth, and their effects are naturally extraordinary."
"Legend has it that the Ji Immortal Clan, the hegemons of the six kingdoms, possessed a Tier 5 Five-Element Fruit Tree, a Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root. That Five-Element Fruit Tree was as tall as the fifth-order Nascent Soul stage, and it would bear a batch of Five-Elements Spirit Fruit every hundred years. It could even assist cultivators with Five-Element Spirit Root in breaking through to the Golden Core realm stage."
"There is even a legend that in the Dao Lord Holy Land deep within the Eastern Wilderness, there is a High-Grade Tier 6 Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root the ' Nirvana Immortal Apricot Tree '."
"It is said that the Nirvana Immortal Apricot Tree blossoms once every thousand years, bears fruit once every thousand years, and matures once every other thousand years, eventually producing three Immortal Apricot."
"Once the ' Immortal Apricot ' matures, it possesses a special divine quality. Mortals who smell it can be rejuvenated and live past two hundred years old. If a cultivator consumes it, he can Nirvana Rebirth and live another life. This makes even Primordial Spirit Dao Lord extremely envious."
The Old Clan Leader Foundation Establishment for many years and was far more knowledgeable than the two of them. When he spoke of these rumors, he did so with great certainty and conviction.
Upon hearing these rumors, the truth of which was unknown, the two couldn't help but feel fascinated.
The Third Elder swallowed hard, and said with some shock, "I've only ever heard of the legendary Immortal Plant Purple Yin Divine Tree, whose Divine Fruit can grant immortality. I never imagined that Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root could possess such supreme mystery."
"You're not very knowledgeable," the Old Clan Leader chuckled, then said with some excitement, "Although Nianzhi's Spirit Peach Tree is of low grade, its roots are also Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root. This may be Nianzhi's opportunity to attain enlightenment."
As he spoke, he added, "Of course, most Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root reach their limit after reaching the Tier 4, and whether they can advance further depends on fortuitous opportunity."
"It seems that Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root, as close to Immortal Plant as the Nirvana Immortal Apricot Tree, are probably only a handful in the vast and boundless Purple Yin Realm."
"The matter concerning the Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root is of utmost importance." After thinking for a moment, the Third Elder still said, "From now on, apart from those who can be absolutely trusted, the fewer people who go to Spirit Isle Lake, the better."
Chen Nianzhi listened quietly, feeling an urge to use the purple qi to strengthen the roots of the Spirit Tree again, but he suppressed the thought as soon as it flashed through his mind.
It's not easy for him to absorb and exhale the Hongmeng Purple Qi; he can only accumulate one breath every ten years. He's only accumulated more than half of his fourth breath of purple qi.
The Hongmeng Purple Qi has extraordinary effects; it can not only temper the meridians but also refine the physical body. This is crucial to his chances of breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm in the future. If he wants to break through to the Purple Mansion realm, he still needs to retain the Hongmeng Purple Qi to continuously hone his foundation.
Moreover, he could the Unseen that once the Spirit Peach Tree reached the Tier 4, its potential would likely be exhausted, and further advancement would require more than just a breath of Hongmeng Purple Qi.
Moreover, he was all too aware of the principle that possessing a treasure is a crime. If he rashly enhanced his Heaven-and-Earth Spirit Root before he had sufficient strength, he would probably only be working for the benefit of others.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
The Old Clan Leader ended the conversation, then looked at Chen Nianzhi and said, "I specifically asked you to come back this time because there's something I want you to handle."
Chen Nianzhi's brow twitched, but she remained silent, waiting for him to continue.
"That's right, the once-in-a-decade Exchange Fair in Border Province will begin in a few days."
"I cannot leave Peaceful Sun City for an extended period. Qing Hao's cultivation is insufficient, and I am worried about sending him there."
"So I'd like you to go to Feng Commandery to see if you can trade for Kui Water Essence, and also buy some Golden-whisker Silkworm Silk while you're at it."
After Chen Changxuan finished speaking, Chen Nianzhi roughly understood the purpose of this trip.
The forces under the Azure Sun Sect occupy Three Provinces Three Provinces the Chu Kingdom: Azure Province, Yang Province, and Border Province.
The Border Province was divided into three prefectures: Yu Commandery, Feng Commandery, and Spirit Commandery. These three prefectures were geographically close, so there was a lot of trade between them.
Feng Commandery is located in the middle of the three counties, and with the Xu Immortal Clan Purple Mansion Immortal Clan presiding over it, a Exchange Fair is held every ten years.
The purpose of the Exchange Fair is to allow Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Border Province to exchange what they don't need, trading their valuable resources for the treasures they do need.
In the three prefectures of Border Province, each prefecture has about twenty or thirty Foundation Establishment Immortal Clan. Even if you include the Foundation Establishment among the Rogue Cultivator, there are only about a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators in Border Province.
With so few Foundation Establishment cultivators, they naturally struggle to find ways to exchange for heavenly materials and earthly treasures, so they usually don't miss the Border Province Exchange Fair.
Moreover, every ten years, the Exchange Fair attracts Foundation Establishment from Azure Province, Yang Province, and even Heavenly Ruins Mountain, all in exchange for the Cultivation Resources they desire.
The Old Clan Leader wanted Chen Nianzhi for two reasons: first, to help Chen Qinghao purchase the Kui Water Essence needed to refine the Bright Abyss Void Spirit Sword; and second, to buy some Golden-whisker Silkworm Silk.
The Golden-whisker Silkworm is Tier 2 spirit insect. The Golden-whisker Silkworm Silk it produces is a precious Tier 2 spirit material, which can be used to refine Tier 2 magic robes and magic Law Artifact, and is also an essential material for refining array flags.
A few years ago, after suffering a great loss at the Zuo Yunian, with the entire Lineage's town being slaughtered, the Old Clan Leader felt that the defensive arrays of several towns were not strong enough.
Now that the Lineage's annual income surplus exceeds 1,200 Spirit Stone, they have some extra money. Chen Changxuan wants to purchase some Golden-whisker Silkworm Silk and refine several sets of array flags to further increase the defense of Peaceful Sun City and the surrounding towns.
The formations in the towns surrounding Peaceful Sun City must withstand the attacks of Foundation Establishment cultivators for a period of time and hold out until reinforcements arrive. Only then can the Chen Clan's population development plan proceed without worry.
"I'll have Qing Hao oversee things at Spirit Isle Lake for you during this time."
"Here are eight thousand Spirit Stone." Chen Changxuan handed over a Storage Bag, then continued, "During your trip to Feng Commandery, you can also take the opportunity to purchase some Law Artifact for Qing Hao and Qingwan."
"If you encounter something precious that is useful to your Lineage or to you and me, don't hesitate to part with Spirit Stone."
Chen Nianzhi accepted the Spirit Stone, realizing that these eight thousand Spirit Stone were probably all the liquid funds the group had.
