Seeking Immortality in a Bizarre World-Chapter 716 - 710: Utilizing the Law of the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure? Myriad Immortals Fall_1

Chapter 716: Chapter 710: Utilizing the Law of the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure? Myriad Immortals Fall_1

"Daoist Xu has quite the gift and opportunities. It’s enviable."

The Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body is indeed extraordinary and enviable.

However, this cultivation technique likely originates from the Heavenly Immortal View, making it no easy task to acquire.

"It’s merely a gift from the Sect."

Xu Qiyuan was very satisfied with this cultivation technique, his face beaming with a brilliant smile.

On the path of immortality, he wasn’t the only one thwarted. Even if he couldn’t become a Golden Immortal, by focusing on the Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body, he could still become one of the strongest in the True Immortal Realm.

"I have a contract with the Heavenly Immortal View, barring me from freely entering and exiting the Yuanling Mine Cave. Recently, Daoist Jia, I’ve taken quite an interest in alchemy. Do you have any Immortal Elixirs or Spiritual Medicines?"

Inside the Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl, a vast amount of Spiritual Medicines were planted. Most materials required for concocting Ascension Pills could be satisfied, with only one-third being unique to the Immortal Realm. The missing Spiritual Medicines and Immortal Elixirs could only be obtained through exchanges with Xu Qiyuan and other cultivators. With Xu Qiyuan’s backing from the Heavenly Immortal View, exchanging for Immortal Elixirs was more reliable than trying his luck in the market.

"Exchange for Immortal Elixirs and Spiritual Medicines?" Xu Qiyuan mused. "I have a few Immortal Elixirs. I wonder if they are to your liking, Daoist Jia?"

"However, you will need to offer something that truly captivates me in return."

Xu Qiyuan raised his hand and produced three Immortal Elixirs, arraying them in front of him. In that instant, a rich aroma of Immortal Elixirs spread through the air, fragrant and overpowering.

Jia Ren focused his attention mainly on a purple ganoderma and a green Immortal Elixir. The purple ganoderma was brimming with Immortal Qi, adorned with pale white cloud patterns; this item was called Purple Cloud Ganoderma. The leaves of the green Immortal Elixir shone like green jade, with a lustrous glow flowing within; this plant was known as the Green Jade Immortal Grass.

It was quite a coincidence; both Immortal Elixirs were main ingredients for concocting Ascension Pills. Finding two suitable ones among the three, his luck was indeed good.

"Would Daoist Xu be interested in a Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure?" Jia Ren asked.

He initially considered exchanging an Immortal Artifact, but as a newcomer to the Immortal Realm, offering an Immortal Artifact would arouse suspicion. Xu Qiyuan, hailing from a Dao Sect, wouldn’t lack ordinary Immortal Artifacts, and the Immortal Artifacts Jia Ren possessed were unlikely to be traded for the desired Immortal Elixirs. By contrast, there were far fewer Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures than Immortal Artifacts in the Immortal Realm. Rarity made them more precious, their value exceeding that of common Immortal Artifacts.

Jia Ren produced a black stone, faintly imbued with the aura of the Power of Laws. It was one of the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures obtained from the Tai Xu Alliance, and also the lowest quality amongst them.

"Is this truly a Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure?!" Xu Qiyuan exclaimed. He looked at the black stone Jia Ren produced, felt the faint Power of Laws, and after a moment of stunned silence, stared incredulously at Jia Ren. Realizing his lapse in composure, Xu Qiyuan took a deep breath to steady his excitement.

"Daoist Jia, you are indeed full of surprises. I wonder how many Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures you possess?"

"Rest assured, the price I offer won’t disappoint you."

Jia Ren caught the implied message. The value of Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures exceeds my expectations. With remnants of the Power of Laws within them, coupled with Xu Qiyuan’s reaction just now, could it signify that the Heavenly Immortal View possesses a method to utilize the laws of Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures and continue cultivating the Great Dao? Otherwise, why would Xu Qiyuan have lost his composure? Revealing the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure could even bring danger upon myself!

Thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and Jia Ren wore a bitter smile, "Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures were successively brought into the Immortal Realm by our predecessors, making them a swansong in the Lower Realm.

"From one hundred thousand years ago to the present, not a single new Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure has been born.

"This Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure is the last foundation of our Sect, having already been brought into the Immortal Realm by me. How could I possibly have a second one?"

Xu Qiyuan couldn’t help but sigh, believing Jia Ren’s words to be true. After abnormalities arose in the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures could no longer be born, and those that remained in the Lower Realm were artifacts from a hundred thousand years ago. Ascenders were top existences in their respective realms, often ascending with Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures, leaving later generations destitute. It had been a long time since the Immortal Realm saw an Ascender bring a Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, which was why neither the Heavenly Immortal View nor Xu Qiyuan had realized Jia Ren possessed one.

To encounter a Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure is a rare opportunity, not to be missed at any cost! Xu Qiyuan thought. "I’m willing to offer three Immortal Elixirs and three more Immortal Artifacts in exchange for this Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure. If you have any demands, Daoist Jia, feel free to mention them." He clung to the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, unwilling to let go, fearing the treasure would slip through his fingers.

Jia Ren observed everything. Xu Qiyuan’s behavior increasingly proved that such a method existed in the Immortal Realm. To exchange the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure for this method? That would make Xu Qiyuan suspicious, wondering if I have more Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures. He isn’t a solitary individual; he has a colossal Sect behind him, and I don’t have the strength to contend against them. If I provoke the Heavenly Immortal View, who knows what troubles might follow?

"There’s no need for Immortal Artifacts," Jia Ren said. "I need several Immortal Elixirs that I would ask you to collect on my behalf, Daoist Xu." He took out a Jade Slip and listed several kinds of Immortal Elixirs and Spiritual Medicines needed for concocting Ascension Pills. "As long as you gather the Immortal Elixirs I need, I will readily hand over this treasure."

Procuring a method to utilize Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures is important, but the current priority is to resolve my hidden dangers and strengthen myself. Adequate strength is the key to fending off risks and facing any potential troubles. Regaining my strength first and then slowly planning is not too late.

"Rest assured, Daoist Jia, I will definitely collect these Immortal Elixirs for you..."

Jia Ren had only heard half of the assurance when an unprecedented sense of crisis struck.

"Immortal Path Divine Power: Myriad Immortals Fall!"

A fist wrapped in surging black qi and carrying a terrifying force of slaughter rushed toward him. In an instant, he felt as if he were on a battlefield of immortals. Mighty shadows of immortals fell from the sky, presenting a scene of the silent extinction of myriads of immortals.

The warmth in Xu Qiyuan’s eyes was gone, replaced by an icy stillness, as if he were looking at a dead man. It was as if his previous demeanor was nothing but a disguise, now revealing his true face.

Fair trade?! An Ascender suppressed by the power of the Immortal Realm dared to talk of a fair trade with me?! Xu Qiyuan sneered internally. He had been willing to foster a relationship simply to use Jia Ren as a sparring partner, to make the most of him. He didn’t mind feigning a bit of kindness to encourage Jia Ren to work harder. Throwing a bone to the lower-ranked makes them grateful beyond words. This is the way to control subordinates!

The Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure changed Xu Qiyuan’s mind. He didn’t want to leak news of the treasure and attract competitors from his own sect. There were many in the Heavenly Immortal View stronger than him, and competitors for the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure were countless. Once the news leaked within the sect, it would lead to endless troubles. Why go through the trouble of collecting Immortal Elixirs and Spiritual Medicines when he could profit without any capital?

Secondly, Xu Qiyuan wanted to confirm if Jia Ren had only one Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure.

By killing Jia Ren, news of the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure wouldn’t leak, and no price would have to be paid. The Heavenly Immortal View wouldn’t care about the life or death of a temporary guest cultivator. Killing Jia Ren, he might even gain more Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures!

Jia Ren’s face showed no change in expression, as if everything was within his expectations. Facing the attacking Xu Qiyuan, he revealed a smile, seemingly excited about this outcome.

You covet my Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasure? Sorry, but I’m also interested in your Chaotic Green Lotus Celestial Body and the method to utilize Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Treasures!

Golden wings emerged on Jia Ren’s back. With a few wingbeats, he flew away at an astonishing speed, dodging the strike. Although restricted by the laws of heaven and earth, the speed of the Golden-Winged Peng Bird was also limited, yet it was still incomparable to Xu Qiyuan.

The Immortal Path Divine Power, Myriad Immortals Fall, is indeed powerful, but the prerequisite is that it has to hit the target!

"A True Spirit Level Golden-Winged Peng Bird?!" Xu Qiyuan’s face changed slightly; he hadn’t expected Jia Ren to possess such Divine Skills.

Relying solely on the astonishing speed of the Golden-Winged Peng Bird, it would be impossible to catch up with Jia Ren, let alone kill him and seize his treasure.

"I almost forgot," Xu Qiyuan said, a cold glint in his eyes. "You signed a contract with the Heavenly Immortal View, so leaving won’t be easy for you."

No matter how fast the Golden-Winged Peng Bird might be, it can only move around the vicinity of the Yuanling Mine Cave. Its supreme speed is confined, akin to a bird in a cage.

"I’m curious to see how long you can hide!"

Xu Qiyuan, using the Immortal Path Divine Power Myriad Immortals Fall, struck with killing intent. Simultaneously, he manipulated the Formation of the Yuanling Mine Cave, forming invisible shackles that bound towards Jia Ren. The flight speed of the Golden-Winged Peng Bird was limited, and Jia Ren could only watch helplessly as the fist wrapped in the black qi of falling immortals enlarged before him.

"Dusk Treasured Light!"

"Law of Heaven and Earth!"

"Black Tortoise Form!"

Jia Ren didn’t dare to be careless and finally unleashed his most powerful Great Divine Powers.

BOOM!

The Cave Heaven where the Yuanling Mine Cave was located was filled with a giant tortoise-serpent. Its body still wanted to expand, but the Cave Heaven limited its growth. Ten thousand zhang high was already its limit.

The force of Xu Qiyuan’s punch landed on the Xuanwu Turtle Shell. A dark light formed black spots on the shell as the power of falling immortals attempted to forcibly invade it.

An adult Xuanwu could not withstand the full-strength strike of a Profound Immortal’s Immortal Path Great Divine Power. However, Jia Ren had elevated the Black Tortoise Form to the True Spirit Level. Combined with the Law of Heaven and Earth and the enhancement of his own physique and Qi-blood, it was no less formidable than a True Spirit Xuanwu. Patterns on the Xuanwu Turtle Shell flickered, repelling all invading forces, returning them in full. This was the Innate Divine Ability of the Xuanwu: to use the enemy’s own methods against them.

BOOM!

Xu Qiyuan was sent flying backward, Qi-blood surging within him, his face a mix of green and white. Patterns of lotus flowers gradually became clear on his body, and the first corresponding green lotus seemed to come alive, successfully blooming.

"Green Lotus Movement!"

Amidst the gray fog, a green lotus emerged. It swayed with the wind, unleashing attacks that shattered everything.

BOOM!

Wherever it passed, the formidable Xuanwu Turtle Shell, though not entirely unbreakable, emitted a grating sound. It crumbled inch by inch under the powerful force, and not even the Dao patterns on the shell could save it. It wasn’t that the True Spirit Level Black Tortoise Form wasn’t strong enough, but rather Jia Ren was being suppressed by the laws of heaven and earth, unable to exert his full strength.

The shadow of the Green Lotus shattered half of the Xuanwu Turtle Shell before the power within the Green Lotus finally ran out, slowly receding.

"A True Spirit Level Xuanwu transformation? Unexpectedly, someone from the Lower Realm like you possesses such Divine Skills."

"Impressive! Xu is quite interested in this technique! This counts as an unexpected gain!" Having severely injured Jia Ren, a smile appeared on Xu Qiyuan’s face.

He had gained a great advantage. Had Jia Ren not been suppressed by heaven and earth, defeating him would not have been an easy task.

Just as Xu Qiyuan was about to strike, he saw the scattered Qi-blood fly back into Jia Ren’s body like swallows returning to their nest, and the damaged turtle shell restored itself at an incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, everything was back to its original state.
