Upgrade, New Effects
As the long list of rewards was read aloud, all the elders in the hall gasped for breath, their eyes filled with shock.
The immortal crystals were one thing, but the materials that followed were all priceless treasures that were extremely rare and hard to come by in the lower realms!
Nine-Turn Mysterious Gold is the main material for refining Immortal Tier Law Treasure, and it is extremely rare and valuable.
Xirang, a legendary divine soil that is said to be perpetually regenerating and capable of nurturing all kinds of spirit medicine in the world.
The Alchemical Fire Heart Marrow is the condensed essence of the Dao of Alchemy Origin; obtaining it can lead to Qingyun in Dao of Alchemy skills.
There are also Soul-Ferrying Lotus Platform Fragment, which are supreme treasures of the Netherworld.
Li Yunjing was also secretly delighted.
These things are not simple; with them, he can upgrade several more buildings.
Li Yunjing accepted the decree and the storage ring. He scanned them with his divine sense and found that the materials inside were neatly arranged and in perfect quantity.
Wang Heng smiled and waved his hand, "Sect Leader Li, there's no need for such formalities. The Alliance Leader said that Sect Leader Li deserves the most credit for this upgrade of the Dao Realm, so this small reward is nothing."
If needed in the future, Luozhen Sect can directly apply for resources from the Immortal Alliance, with special approval from the Alliance Leader, and priority will be given to supplying them.
This is an even greater blessing.
Prioritizing resource allocation is tantamount to giving Luozhen Sect a green light.
"Please thank the Alliance Leader for me." Li Yunjing nodded slightly.
The two then began to talk. Wang Heng inquired about the details of the Dao Realm, and Li Yunjing gave a brief account of what he could say, which left Wang Heng deeply moved.
He then brought up the matter of the sect's fortune, and said with a smile, "Just now when I entered the mountain, I noticed that your Luozhen Sect Sect's fortune was at its peak, the Spirit Vein were of extremely high quality, and there were even some geniuses among your disciples."
With Sect Leader Li governance, the rise of the Luozhen Sect is just around the corner.
"It's just the blessing of the Dao Realm; we still need to cultivate it gradually," Li Yunjing said modestly.
Wang Heng nodded. "Alright, the rewards have been given. You can make your own arrangements. I'm going to see Qianxue."
After saying this, Wang Heng got up and left.
After seeing Wang Heng off, the people in the hall could no longer contain their excitement and surrounded him.
"Sect Leader, the Immortal Alliance has bestowed so many treasures upon us!" Mo Xuan held the storage ring, his hands trembling slightly.
"Alright, everyone go about your business. I have a very important use for these things," Li Yunjing said.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and left the main hall.
Li Yunjing rubbed his hands together excitedly.
First, he needs to upgrade the Sect Grand Hall.
With a thought, he silently chanted "upgrade," and the Sect Grand Hall was upgraded from level 7 to level 8.
Buzz!
The entire Sect Grand Hall suddenly trembled violently, emitting a deep and majestic hum, like an ancient beast awakening.
The glazed tiles on the roof were the first to change, gradually becoming translucent and shimmering with iridescent light, each tile appearing as if it had been carved from beautiful jade.
On the vermilion beams and pillars, golden Daoist patterns spread upwards from the foundation, like golden vines climbing, eventually converging at the roof of the hall to form a complex Daoist-inspired pattern.
"Hold head high!"
A high-pitched dragon roar resounded through the sky.
A golden Golden Dragon of Fortune, several meters long, coiled up from the top of the palace. Its body was solid, its scales and claws were distinct, and its golden eyes were incomparably majestic.
It circled three times above the main peak before plunging back into the main hall and disappearing from sight.

Li Yunjing sensed the information coming from the main hall and nodded slightly.
The effects of the Eighth-Level Grand Hall far exceeded expectations, especially the Dao Rhyme Empowerment. In the future, when disciples enter it to comprehend the Dao, they will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Furthermore, the Golden Dragon Defends Against Enemies has gained an additional trump card in its defenses; if ordinary forces attack, a single strike from the Golden Dragon is enough to repel them.
As he stepped into the main hall, he felt a warm and gentle Daoist aura wash over him, as if all the pores on his body were opening up and his mind became much clearer.
Sitting on the sect leader's throne, one can clearly sense the flow of the entire sect's fortune, as if it were an extension of one's own arm.
"Okay." Li Yunjing got up with satisfaction and headed to the next location.
The second thing to upgrade is the Spirit Field.
The Luozhen Sect's Spirit Field cover a thousand acres, and the level eight Spirit Field have long since transformed this place into a sea of spirit medicine.
The terraced fields, layer upon layer, are planted with spirit medicine of all grades, from low-grade Spirit-Gathering Grass and Qi-Condensing Flower to high-grade Vermilion Fruit and Mystic Ginseng, there is something for everyone.
Li Yunjing took out the Xirang without alerting anyone.
The Xirang was no bigger than a fist, yellowish-brown in color, and looked unremarkable, yet it exuded an incredibly rich vitality.
The Myriad Spirits Spring Source is a light blue crystal, with what appears to be a flowing spring inside.
He silently chanted "upgrade," and the two items in his hands vanished instantly.
Wow.
At that moment, the entire Spirit Field seemed to come alive.
All the spirit medicine were growing wildly, their branches and leaves unfurling, their flowers blooming.
The Millennial Vermilion Fruit, which originally took a hundred years to mature, visibly changed from green to red, and the fruit quickly swelled and became plump.
Several old medicinal plants by the field ridge had faint outlines of human faces appearing at their roots, showing signs of transformation—signs that the spirit medicine were developing sentience.
In the irrigation ditch, milky white spiritual liquid flowed slowly, passing over every terraced field. Wherever it passed, the leaves of the spirit medicine became crystal clear, with a faint Daoist charm flowing between the veins.
