Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 984: Profound Immortal Sun Sect
Chapter 984: Profound Immortal Sun Sect
In his cave dwelling back at the Void Immortal Sword Sect, Fang Chen took out the storage ring of Immortal King Huang Chan.
Empress Ci had already helped him refine Huang Chan's imprint, and she had also taken out the treasures inside and placed them in another storage ring.
As soon as Fang Chen opened it, he saw a red wooden coffin with a special mark faintly circulating on it, emitting a soft glow.
Fang Chen pondered thoughtfully, "An immortal imprint treasure?"
Apart from the coffin treasure, the storage ring also contained a number of mid-grade spirit stones and over a dozen high-grade spirit stones.
After tallying the numbers, Fang Chen found there were more than 4,000 mid-grade spirit stones.
In a corner of the storage ring, there were over ten purple-gold gourds.
Fang Chen took one out and opened it. Inside, a continuous stream of white mist surged out, flowing into Fang Chen's body.
The lifespan of the Monarch Yan's Seal began to increase incessantly.
This purple-gold gourd was filled with Blood Spirit Pills. As for their grade, Fang Chen couldn't determine for now, but it was certain that each pill's aura was much weaker than that of a second-grade pill.
Before long, all the pills in the gourd were absorbed by the Monarch Yan's Seal, and its lifespan increased from over 66,000 to over 71,000. The Blood Spirit Pills in one gourd provided the Monarch Yan's Seal with approximately 5,000 years of lifespan.
Fang Chen's expression turned cold. Even if these weren't third-grade pills, they were at least fourth-grade. Considering the countless lives required to refine a second-grade pill, if the Spirit Blood Sect had used the Hidden Cloud Region as a furnace, they might have only been able to refine one fourth-grade pill.
The pills stored in such a gourd were likely refined at the cost of countless lives in the Hidden Cloud Region. And this was only one guard. There were many more in the storage ring.
Fang Chen's thoughts stirred.
Wang Chongsong had mentioned that Huang Chan had a good relationship with the Carefree Immortal Monarch. Therefore, when Zuo Xu previously mentioned knowing a Spirit Blood Sect, a Spirit Immortal with whom he conducted transactions, it was likely the Toad Immortal King.
Considering the large reserve of Blood Spirit Pills in his storage ring, his role here was probably to transport these pills to the outside world. That's why Wang Chongsong had him take the Fairy Yu the Prison Wind Lands as a side task.
Fang Chen opened the remaining purple-gold gourds one by one, and the Blood Spirit Divine Pills inside were continuously devoured by the Monarch Yan's Seal.
Each gourd provided an increase of approximately 5,000 years of lifespan. In the end, the lifespan of the seal soared from the initial 66,000 to over 120,000.
To reinforce the barrier between the two realms, I need a million years of lifespan. There's still a long way to go, but Master Yun He has bought me a hundred years, so there's no rush.
He had instructed Stone Dragon and the Dragon King to seek out suitable candidates. This amount of lifespan was enough to confer the title of second transformation major yin demon or even the third transformation.
The strongest combat power in the Prison Wind Lands was only that of a Third Transformation Loose Immortal. If he could command one, many of his troubles could be easily resolved.
Taking out 500 mid-grade spirit stones, Fang Chen activated the Realm of Three Thousand Dao. He brought the storage ring with him to the Dao Palace.
Previously, he had been worried that the coffin might have some peculiarities. If he took it out in the Void Immortal Sword Sect, he feared it might trigger some anomaly and alert Wang Chongsong.
With a wave of his sleeve, Fang Chen retrieved the red wooden coffin from the storage ring.
"Little Mirror, is this a Heaven-rank treasure or a spiritual treasure?"
"It's not a spiritual treasure, just a low-grade Heaven-rank one. You can see it only has one immortal imprint," replied Mirror of the Universe.
"Low-grade Heaven-rank...."
Fang Chen stepped forward to examine it and casually released Little Sword.
Little Sword immediately sensed the "prey" and shot straight toward the red wooden coffin. However, it collided with a burst of sparks, as if repelled by some force, and was sent flying backward.
Mirror of the Universe gloated, "Junior, with your current strength, devouring spiritual imprint treasures is already your limit. You think you can handle an Immortal imprint treasure? Try again after you've leveled up a few more times."
"I don't believe it!"
The small sword shook its blade, as if preparing for a running start. In the next moment, it transformed into a sword beam and shot toward the red wooden coffin once more.
Clang!
The sound of metal clashing resounded, accompanied by a shower of sparks.
Little Sword was sent flying once more, embedding itself diagonally into the ground with a soft thud.
As for the red wooden coffin, it remained completely unscathed. It was clear that even without a cultivator's activation, the sheer durability of Heaven-rank treasure was beyond the Little Sword's current capabilities.
"Quit trying. Little Mirror is right. You're not ready to devour this treasure yet," said Fang Chen, waving his hand dismissively.
He stepped forward, gripped the sides of the coffin lid, and with a forceful push, lifted and slid it open.
Boom!
The lid fell to the ground with a heavy thud. Fang Chen peered inside the coffin, only to find it completely empty.
Fang Chen murmured with a thoughtful glint in his eyes. "This treasure can't just be a coffin..."
At that moment, Zhu Long, which had been dormant within his body, suddenly emerged. It flew straight into the coffin, slithering around inside as if it had found something it adored. Its expression was one of pure bliss.
"Brother, a Zhu Long thrives on yin and consumes yang. If this coffin isn't an extreme yin object, then it must be an extreme yang one," explained Mirror of the Universe.
Fang Chen replied, "Coffins are usually associated with extreme yi—"
Before he could finish, the immortal imprint on the coffin suddenly flared with radiant light, transforming into a blazing sun.
The intense heat forced Fang Chen to squint.
A continuous surge of scorching yang energy churned within the coffin, and Zhu Long eagerly devoured it, one mouthful after another.
The process lasted about a quarter of an hour. Gradually, the immortal imprint dimmed, and the coffin's aura seemed to weaken slightly. In contrast, Zhu Long looked as if it had overeaten, its belly swollen and its body slightly larger.
The Mirror of the Universe was hit with realization. "Profound Yang energy... I see now. This coffin was crafted by an immortal from the Profound Immortal Sun Sect. Only they possess such pure Xuan Yang energy."
Fang Chen glanced at it. "I thought you knew everything."
"Well, my spiritual energy is depleted. If you could spare a few more high-grade spirit stones, I could tell you the entire history of this object," hinted Mirror of the Universe.
Fang Chen pretended not to notice the hint and casually asked, "You mentioned the Profound Immortal Sun Sect. That's a sect from the Immortal Realm, right? Do immortals in the Immortal Realm use mortal treasures like this instead of immortal artifacts?"
"Immortals aren't true immortals. The cultivator who crafted this was likely at the Ascension Realm. In the immortal Realm, they don't call it Ascension; they refer to it as Feathering.'"
"So, what's the true purpose of this treasure?"
"The Profound Immortal Sun Sect's cultivation method requires the refinement of the Four Stage Profound Yang Body. Its a unique inheritance of their sect. This treasure probably isn't meant for combat but to assist cultivation. It can also defend against sneak attacks during cultivation, making it a defensive treasure of sorts."
"You might want to ask that Immortal King if he also obtained the cultivation method for the Four Stage Profound Yang Body. This technique is quite renowned in the Immortal Realm. Combined with your sword body, if you master it, your physical form will undergo a transformation. Even if you're only at the Enlightenment Realm, you could stand your ground against a Dao Union Realm cultivator."
