How did it get like this?
Jade Spring Sect.
True Person Mei frowned slightly, looking at the rather disheveled Chen Shuangbai with a hint of surprise.
In her mind, Chen Shuangbai should have returned unharmed, so why did he come back looking somewhat disheveled?
Chen Shuangbai shrugged.
In fact, True Lord Qingyu was in a more sorry state.
Xuanchengzi detonated half of the " Pengyu Heaven " Grotto-Heaven to protect himself.
Even with the presence of True Lord Baishi, a Nascent Soul Late Stage Great True Lord cultivator, he was still unable to resist the self-destruction of the Grotto-Heaven. He was forced to withdraw a small amount of his Law Power, allowing Xuanchengzi to use a technique similar to the Heavenly Demon Body Disintegration Great Method, sacrificing most of his physical body and spiritual essence to escape.
This is actually not difficult to understand.
Compared to Xuanchengzi, even True Lord Baishi, True Lord Xuantong, and True Lord Qingyu considered him to be more important than Pengyu Heaven.
Therefore, several True Lord intervened and stopped [ Pengyu Heaven ]'s self-destruction, allowing Xuanchengzi to escape with half his life.
However, the power of the self-destruction of half of the Grotto-Heaven was truly a blow to both sides.
Chen Shuangbai is actually not bad.
After all, he had the protection of True Lord Qingyu.
The small sect guarding this Grotto-Heaven on South Splendor Mountain was left without protection, and in the end, only a few disciples were rescued. The entire sect of hundreds was annihilated in the aftershocks of the battle between the two sides.
After hearing the whole story, True Person Mei sighed deeply and said, "I've never heard of such a turn of events before. I originally thought... I could bring out a few fourth-tier spiritual resources from this Grotto-Heaven this time."
At its peak, the True Net Cult possessed immense power and profound resources.
The reason why the six sects spent so much time and effort nurturing this Grotto-Heaven, using three hundred years as a milestone, was because it contained many Secret Method techniques and profound skills of the True Net Cult, as well as the fourth-order spiritual resources it nurtured.
Upon hearing this, Chen Shuangbai smiled slightly, and then, in front of True Person Mei, took out several Storage Bag. With a surge of Sword Intent, he broke through the restrictions on them, and three Treasure Light fell from them.
True Person Mei lit up slightly, as if he had thought of something, and he asked, "So the Parting Hate Gate, Celebrated Origin Sect, and Lotus Temple... have all fallen into your hands?"
Chen Shuangbai nodded slightly.
Because of Xuanchengzi's resurrection, Chen Shuangbai's trip to the Grotto-Heaven did not yield the fruitful results he had anticipated.
But it reaped considerable benefits in another form.
The Storage Bag of those who perished under Chen Shuangbai's command were secretly stored away by Changming, who concealed them in his sleeves.
On the way back, Chen Shuangbai chose to take secluded roads to avoid being intercepted by any ill-intentioned Nascent Soul.
The journey, with its stops and starts, allowed them to take stock of their gains.
"Aside from those second- and third-tier spiritual attributes, there are only three fourth-tier spiritual attributes... Oh right, I have one more here."
Chen Shuangbai also put the purple light he obtained from killing Zhao Buyan into it.
Four clusters of Treasure Light illuminated the Myriad Phenomena Hall, making it a magnificent sight.
True Person Mei activated the restrictions on this hall, sealing off both the inside and outside, and examined it carefully.
"Fourth-tier low-grade spiritual resources: the fire-elemental [ Chongli Treasure Flower ], the water-elemental [ Illuminating Profound Primal Liquid ]... oh, and the earth-elemental [ Accumulated Wood Profound Crystal ]."
Fourth-tier spiritual talent, corresponding to the Nascent Soul.
True Person Mei immediately beamed with joy.
Yi Chongyue and Shi Yubai, who arrived later, stepped forward and their eyes lit up when they saw the several fourth-tier spiritual resources.
"This amount of [Chongli Treasure Flower] can refine at least three batches of [Lihuo Pills]. I vaguely remember that the Xuanxiao Sect of Zhao Kingdom desperately needs these pills; we could exchange them for spiritual resources of the same level."
"As for the [ Illuminating Profound Primal Liquid ] and the [ Accumulated Wood Profound Crystal ], the former can be taken by Nascent Soul Cultivator, allowing them to recover a large amount of Law Power in a very short time."
"The latter can be used to refine defensive magical Law Treasure, or to set up large-scale formations... This portion is enough to set up the core of a mountain-protecting formation."
Yi Chongyue, being knowledgeable and experienced, quickly explained the effects of these spiritual resources one by one.
After some discussion, the group decided on the ownership of the three spiritual resources.
[ Chongli Treasure Flower ] can be revealed to the various factions within one's own alliance first, and then to the Profound Firmament Sect, prioritizing the exchange of fourth-tier water-element spiritual resources to prepare corresponding precious pills for True Person Mei and Chen Shuangbai Nascent Soul.
[ Illuminating Profound Primal Liquid ] is precious and can quickly replenish the energy consumed by a Nascent Soul True Lord on the battlefield. It should be saved for future battles, as it may have a miraculous effect.
As for [ Accumulated Wood Profound Crystal ]... first check if there's room for improvement in your own mountain-protecting formation. If not, you can reveal it to the other sects and factions of the Vast Waves Alliance and trade the corresponding spiritual resources.
After deciding on the ownership of these fourth-tier spiritual resources, True Person Mei looked at Chen Shuangbai with gentle eyes and said, "This time, the sect has taken advantage of you again. Why don't you take a look at the sect's treasury and see what you can find..."
Chen Shuangbai shook his head and said, "It's not convenient for me to look through the treasure vault any further. I intend to go into seclusion to cultivate and break through to the Nascent Soul stage. Does the sect have any suitable precious pills?"
With Chen Shuangbai's current cultivation level at the Late Golden Core Stage stage, coupled with the addition of Sword Intent, he is virtually invincible below the Nascent Soul.
But now, in this chaotic world...
The Late Golden Core Stage sounds impressive, but in the eyes of Nascent Soul, it's nothing more than a slightly larger ant.
Yi Chongyue thought for a moment, then glanced at True Person Mei, but the latter shook his head and said, " Xuhong is the Jade Spring Dao Child. Apart from the sect leader, his status and power are the highest."
Upon hearing this, Yi Chongyue understood and said, "The pill that can help Late Golden Core Stage break through to the Nascent Soul stage is not actually the [ Nascent Soul Condensation Pill ] that is rumored to exist. Sects with a slightly longer history and those that can stably produce Nascent Soul cultivators all have corresponding reserves of precious pills."
"However, fourth-tier spiritual resources are actually quite hard to find these days. If I had to name one... my sect's [ Jade Parasol Tree ] could be considered one..."
After saying a few words, Yi Chongyue turned and left. When he returned, he was carrying a jade box.
Chen Shuangbai opened the jade box and saw a large, luminous white pill lying inside. There was a trace of dew in the center. The extremely pure spiritual energy was locked inside the jade box and did not escape outwards in the slightest.
"This is a powerful pill passed down in our sect, capable of helping Late Golden Core Stage cultivators break through to the Nascent Soul. It's called the [ Golden Dew Jade Liquid Pill ]."
"The pills were formed a thousand years ago by the previous sect leader. Seven pills were formed, and three remain."
Chen Shuangbai accepted the pills, turned to look at True Person Mei, and prepared to take his leave.
But True Person Mei stopped him, saying, "The country is in turmoil right now, and you are too conspicuous."
"Putting everything else aside, this time you practically wiped out all the core disciples of those families in the Holy Origin Demonic Alliance... Those Nascent Soul Nascent Soul can definitely predict your current cultivation progress."
"If you wish to go into seclusion... go to sea."
