"Junior Brother Chen, who are you planning to let form a Golden Core with those three Five Elements Spirit Fruits?" Zhou Ye, feeling good after just exiting the secret realm, asked Chen Mobai inside Primordial Immortal City. "I haven't decided yet. I'll see which of the junior disciples are suitable when the time comes," Chen Mobai replied, without directly answering the question.

"Junior Brother, there's something I've kept to myself for a long time. I originally didn't want to say anything, but after interacting with you these past few days, I've found you to be a responsible and dependable person. Now that the Five Elements Five Lineages are in your hands, I should tell you." Zhou Ye's suddenly serious tone made Chen Mobai slightly surprised, and his expression became serious as well. "Is it about the One-Yuan Dao Palace?" According to Chen Mobai's understanding, since Zhou Ye inherited the legacy of the Primordial Old Ancestor, he must know something about this holy land of the Eastern Land. What he was about to say might be related to it.

"Junior Brother Chen, what do you think of Chunyu Su, the sect leader of my Earth Lineage?" But Zhou Ye shook his head, then asked a question that confused Chen Mobai. Since Old Ancestor Wu had no use for the eight Seven-Element Treasures, he gave some of the seventh-tier spirit materials obtained from the secret realm to Bai Wuxi, who was very satisfied with this.

"Besides, the One-Yuan Secret Realm is right here in Primordial Immortal City; it's not going anywhere." "It seems I need to find a Tier 8 container." At that time, even a Life-Extension Dao Body at the Great Accomplishment stage might not be able to withstand it. Before Old Ancestor Golden Wind's death was confirmed, it was still necessary to avoid establishing another Nascent Soul grand sect as an adversary.

Old Ancestor Wu, sitting cross-legged in the Fire Sun Fiend Qi Cave, executed the sword cultivation method he had long mastered. He manipulated strands of dark red airflow, combining them with a faint orange-red radiance in his palm, resembling the morning glow.

After understanding that point, Chen Mobai retrieved the Unphase Puppet, then used his spiritual sense to open the storage bag he had obtained from this trip.

When the Primordial Old Ancestor passed away, he used his last reserves of Primordial True Qi to condense the Primordial Seven Elements Extermination Divine Thunder and refined it into Zhou Ye's body. The latter even felt some resistance, as he would undoubtedly die once it was activated.

"In the Heavenly River Realm, there are no true bosom friends. When Old Ancestor Si Lun was powerful, he acknowledged Zhou Ye as his elder brother after being defeated. But once Zhou Ye died, he sought to seize everything." And I also doubt that Old Ancestor Huang Pi could successfully cultivate the Primordial Five Elements Legacy after obtaining it. After listening, Chen Mobai nodded and left a message: "Senior Brother Zhou, if you need to inform me of anything in the future, you can leave a message at the Small South Mountain Shop within Primordial Immortal City."

Before the Xuanao Gourd reached its limit, he, feeling nostalgic, planned to see if he could find a Tier 8 or Tier 7 gourd to upgrade it. It was still on the small mountain at the border.

Sword pouches, sword boxes, sword pots, gourds, and so on, are all excellent carriers for sword fiend qi. He also set up anchor points in the One-Yuan Secret Realm, allowing him to teleport back at any time to receive the Five Elements Grand Dao inheritance from True Monarch One-Yuan.

"Actually, I also considered completely siding with the Bathing Sun Sea. After all, Old Ancestor Si Lun, besides being willing to help me quell internal troubles, also offered other tempting conditions, such as Nascent Soul spiritual items." Old Ancestor Wu fell into deep thought after hearing Zhou Ye's words. If he had known earlier, he should have given the Turtle Treasure to the Unphase Puppet. "I haven't interacted much with him, but I heard that Martial Nephew Chunyu is a capable person." Zhou Ye's words made Old Ancestor Wu even more shocked. After all, the Turtle Treasure was his foundation for traversing two realms. Letting the Unphase Puppet take it carried the risk of it being lost in the One-Yuan Secret Realm. Under uncertain circumstances, if he had to do it again, he would still make the same choice.

A radiant light shot into the sky, dispersing the clouds and mist, like a pillar of light connecting heaven and earth, illuminating all directions. What drew his attention the most were naturally those eight Seven-Element Treasures, followed by the branches of the Five Elements Spirit Tree.

"However, reconsidering, if I were to do that, Senior Brother Nu Jiang and Senior Sister Sheng, upon learning of it, would certainly not stand on my side. At that point, even if I could quell the internal strife, I would probably be left alone." Zhou Ye spoke. If they were to kill Yuan Yang Jian now, it would be clearly telling Old Ancestor Si Lun that their Five Elements Five Lineages were going to fall out with him.

Suddenly, a crack sound!

"Probably," Zhou Ye said with a melancholic tone. Old Ancestor Wu re-sealed the Xuanao Gourd, which still had cracks despite being reinforced with talismans, and hung it on his waist, deep in thought.

No wonder Old Ancestor Si Lun, widely known as a good friend of the Primordial Old Ancestor, remained silent when the Five Elements Sect split. Furthermore, when the poisonous dragon's seal in Yunmengze later had problems, he also ignored it. But now it seems, one can only say that the Primordial Old Ancestor still had long-term vision. However, it was only a momentary pity.

After retracting all the power of the sword fiend qi, he easily placed the orange-red sword pill into the Xuanao Gourd. "Senior Brother, why do you still keep an undercover agent like him? Do you want me to help you deal with him?" He also took some clear water containing Imprint Water Essence, preparing it for quenching when upgrading artifacts. Old Ancestor Wu leisurely lifted the Tier 8 Primordial Immortal City Fiend Qi in his palm and sent it towards the Xuanao Gourd at his waist.

Within the immortal sect, there were many instances of cultivators who, during cultivation deviation, couldn't control their own power, leading to sword fiend qi rampaging within their bodies and their physical bodies being torn apart.

Fire Truth Hall, Yan Kingdom.

"Did Primordial Old Ancestor already anticipate Old Ancestor Huang Pi's betrayal after his passing?" Old Ancestor Wu had a pleasant conversation with the emerged Bai Wuxi. After returning the Fire Element Jade Pendant to her, he spoke of the gains from the One-Yuan Secret Realm. "Zhou Ye will be able to exit seclusion in three days."

"I'll come again in three days!" Chen Mobai truthfully stated that before him, Chunyu Su was known as the foremost sect leader in the Eastern Continent, having reached Foundation Establishment perfection very early, which made people like Meng Hong of the Divine Wood Sect extremely wary.

However, this time only the Unphase Puppet was there; Jiang Zongheng and Duan Shuyu had already returned to prepare for the final battle to unify the Eastern Continent next spring. After he quickly finished reading, he couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

Zhou Ye spoke a fierce sentence that shocked Old Ancestor Wu. Chen Mobai was slightly startled to see this scene. Actually, the sword fiend qi could also be absorbed into the body, but the rate at which sword arts increase in power far exceeds that of a cultivator's physical body. Therefore, in the later stages, sword cultivators from the immortal sect mostly cultivated the inner sword dao and external sword arts.

Old Ancestor Wu, with his Fire Spirit Body augmentation, could easily achieve mastery in fire-attribute cultivation methods and spells; the Primordial Immortal City Fiend Qi was naturally no exception. Therefore, he easily upgraded the Primordial Immortal City Fiend Qi to Tier 8. "Thank you for your hard work, Martial Nephew Tan. Has Senior Sister Sheng exited seclusion?" She was Bai Wuxi's disciple, Mu Mai. During the time Chen Mobai cultivated, she was basically guarding the cave entrance. After leaving that sentence, Old Ancestor Wu transformed into a streak of flame escape light and disappeared from the spot. After all, as someone from the immortal sect, he didn't value inheritances as much as those from the Heavenly River Realm.

Old Ancestor Wu thought, "Chen Mobai, your disciple has the potential to reach Foundation Establishment perfection. If your sect refines any Golden Core spiritual items next time, could I exchange for one for her?"

However, as a true heavenly and earthly treasure, the Five Elements Spirit Tree, which could assist True Monarch One-Yuan in cultivating the supreme Primordial Five Elements Legacy, balanced Five Elements spiritual energy was merely a basic condition. Whether the branch could truly be planted, sprout, and grow would still require Zhuo Ming to continuously communicate with it using the Spiritual Rhinoceros of All Things and cultivate it with the Mother Qi of All Things.

If he didn't have the Primordial Seven Elements Extermination Divine Thunder, Zhou Ye would probably have died twice over. The Small South Mountain Shop had opened branches all over the Eastern Continent. Wherever there were markets where cultivators gathered, there would be talismans and talisman ink sold by this shop.

After elevating the Primordial Immortal City Fiend Qi to Tier 8, the Fire Sun Fiend Qi Cave, which had been nurtured by the Fire Truth Hall for decades, was almost completely drained by him.

"Chen Mobai's abilities are quite good, and Primordial Immortal City can obtain many resources unavailable in the Eastern Continent through him from Jinwu Immortal City in Dongyi." Although Chen Mobai didn't expend much effort on sword arts, his understanding of the Pure Yang Scroll had long reached a profound level.

After completing these tasks, he condensed the Primordial Immortal City Fiend Qi in his palm into an orange-red sword pill. He never expected that within the One-Yuan Secret Realm, besides the Five Elements Spirit Tree, there would be so many seventh-tier resources, and even an Altar of Heaven and Earth left behind by an ascended cultivator.

Zhou Ye concluded, "After all, the Primordial Old Ancestor treated me with profound kindness. Although my feelings for my senior brothers and sisters are not deep, I am still unwilling to see them die at the hands of Old Ancestor Huang Pi for this. Therefore, in the end, I did not refuse." Old Ancestor Wu's words made Zhou Ye give a cold laugh, and he stood up, clenching his fist as he looked towards Dongyi.

If it had been another time, Old Ancestor Wu would certainly still be wary of Old Ancestor Huang Pi. But now that Chen Mobai had formed his Nascent Soul, and their Five Elements Five Lineages were garrisoned in the Eastern Continent, they had the ability to resist a grand Nascent Soul sect.

Therefore, Old Ancestor Wu had always cultivated the Primordial Immortal City Fiend Qi within his body. Old Ancestor Wu immediately stopped his actions, then took out his Sun-Chasing Talisman Brush and drew talismans of sturdiness, fire resistance, and so on onto the gourd.

Outside the cave, a female cultivator in red, with a beautiful face and fiery figure, immediately saluted when she saw Chen Mobai emerge. Chen Mobai originally thought Old Ancestor Si Lun didn't want to get involved, but now it seemed he was probably deliberately waiting for the poisonous dragon to emerge. As soon as a wisp of Primordial Immortal City Fiend Qi was sent in, the gourd cracked open, as if it had been stretched to its limit, unable to bear the pressure.

According to his idea, if he could exchange a cultivation method for strong assistance and quell internal troubles, he would certainly not hesitate.

"Did you think that when the sect split, only the Tan Rong Dao Palace was pushing from behind? In reality, Old Ancestor Huang Pi also had Yuan Yang Jian bring me a message, saying that as long as I handed over the Primordial Five Elements Legacy, he would help me suppress our Fire and Metal lineages." "He is someone sent by the Bathing Sun Sea. He entered my sect as a disciple so that I would teach him the Primordial Five Elements Legacy, allowing him to take it back to Old Ancestor Huang Pi."

Mu Mai looked up and saw a multicolored cloud in the sky already flying towards the southern horizon. Although Old Ancestor Wu had the Soul Suppressing Morning Bell to suppress his sea of consciousness, making cultivation deviation virtually impossible, he still needed to guard against any unforeseen circumstances.

"The Si Lun Dao Palace wants the entire Eastern Continent, while Old Ancestor Huang Pi, leveraging the pressure from the Tan Rong Dao Palace, wants to obtain the One-Yuan Legacy of the Primordial Old Ancestor." As long as his cultivation continued to improve in the future, the secret realm would be his sooner or later, so there was no need to rush. Moreover, in terms of sword dao attainment, he was an undisputed grandmaster. Zhou Ye spoke the truth, and Chen Mobai was enlightened after hearing it. The power of the Extreme Yang Slash had already reached its peak and could not harm his Fire Spirit Body, but the sword fiend qi was different; it could be upgraded to Tier 7. If there really wasn't a suitable container, he would carve a sword box out of Tier 7 Life-Extension Wood.

As a splendid and magnificent radiance burst forth with ten thousand feet of light, an extremely dazzling light emanated from the Fiend Qi Cave located behind the Fire Truth Hall. He remembered his own mystic artifact gourd, which was only Tier 2 quality. A Tier 8 sword fiend qi was truly too much for it.
