Chapter 767: Haotian Mirror Ascends

Pure Nine-Lotus Treasure Lamp

The Seventh Layer of the Golden Core stage was the last bottleneck before reaching the Nascent Soul stage.

Chen Mobai's breakthrough past this bottleneck signified that he was about to become one of the strongest cultivators below the Nascent Soul realm.

Nangong Xuanyu's status as the foremost Golden Core cultivator began to waver from this moment.

Many people believed that once Chen Mobai also reached the perfected Golden Core stage, with his exceptional talent in the sword dao, he would definitely be no less than Nangong Xuanyu, perhaps even surpassing him.

Upon hearing this view, the students of Pure Yang Academy were displeased and began to engage in heated debates online.

Chen Mobai also had a group of devoted fans, and a chaotic battle of words ensued between the two sides.

Xiao Hei had told Chen Mobai about these matters, but he merely dismissed them with a smile.

He no longer needed to prove anything in the Immortal Sect; he was now the undisputed number one in talent, and Nangong Xuanyu would be surpassed by him sooner or later.

After his breakthrough, Chen Mobai received many congratulatory messages.

He selectively replied to some, then used the excuse of consolidating his cultivation to continue his secluded practice on Mount Danxia.

Of course, in reality, he had gone to Mount Liujia.

The great art of "Primordial Plain and Fertile Valley" had completely transformed the Immortal Soil. However, after absorbing a tube of Myriad Transformation Thunder Water, the peak third-tier Golden Sun Spirit Tree had still not taken the step to advance.

Chen Mobai received a notification from Zhuo Ming that the best time for advancement had arrived, so he came to prepare to cast "Accelerated Growth."

"Oh, Ming'er, your Nine-Ren Dharma Body has broken through!"

As soon as he arrived at Mount Liujia, Chen Mobai discovered good news: Zhuo Ming, standing before him, exuded overflowing vitality. With a light step, her foot left a deep impression in the ground.

"Reporting, Master," Zhuo Ming began cheerfully, explaining the reason. "At the beginning of the year, during the Spring Festival, when all the Purple Jade Spirit Rice by Cangshan Lake ripened and was harvested, a long-held obsession in my heart dissipated. I integrated with the three hundred acres of spiritual fields there, receiving an infusion of telluric spiritual energy. This helped me digest the medicinal power of the Nirvana Pill, and my Nine-Ren Dharma Body naturally achieved a breakthrough."

Cultivating and growing third-tier spirit rice was Zhuo Ming's dream after Chen Mobai taught her agriculture. Now, fifty-odd years later, she had finally achieved this goal.

With a state of great satisfaction, her breakthrough was also a natural progression.

"Excellent, excellent."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai was naturally exceptionally pleased.

Among his four disciples, his expectations for Zhuo Ming were the highest.

After her Body Forging technique broke through to the third tier, even if Zhuo Ming couldn't comprehend the Dao and form a Golden Core, she would still be able to successfully form a Golden Core after consuming a Golden Liquid Jade Restoration Pill.

"Master, here is the harvested Purple Jade Spirit Rice."

As she spoke, Zhuo Ming handed two large storage bags to Chen Mobai.

This third-tier spirit rice was appearing for the first time in the Eastern Barrens. Given the local importance placed on spirit rice, if it were to circulate rashly in the market, it would certainly attract the attention of various factions.

In particular, this Purple Jade Spirit Rice bore some resemblance to Grand Sun Purple Rice, making it easy to incur questions from the Star Heaven Dao Sect.

For now, Chen Mobai had no intention of clashing with this hegemon of the Eastern Mountains, so he did not plan to sell or circulate this Purple Jade Spirit Rice outside the sect.

Qing Nü had also researched and analyzed this Purple Jade Spirit Rice, confirming that it indeed had an effect similar to Pure Yang Purple Qi in aiding bottleneck breakthroughs, though it was very weak.

It would likely require continuous consumption for about ten years to achieve half the effect of Pure Yang Purple Qi.

For Chen Mobai, this was naturally of little use.

However, for the other cultivators of the Five Elements Sect, its effect was enormous.

Moreover, at Chen Mobai's suggestion, Qing Nü combined the Barrier-Dispelling Pill with the Purple Jade Spirit Rice and researched a medicinal porridge called "Purple Jade Porridge."

This medicinal porridge could have a barrier-dispelling effect after about one to two years of consumption, and the longer one continued to consume it, the better the effect, until the bottleneck was broken.

However, after Purple Jade Porridge helped a cultivator break through a bottleneck once, its effect would be greatly diminished if consumed again.

Nevertheless, Purple Jade Porridge could at least elevate the overall strength of the Five Elements Sect by one level.

At least Fu Zongjue and others could use it to break through to the late Golden Core stage.

Chen Mobai would certainly attribute this credit to Qing Nü. He also intended to use this matter to bring Qing Nü into the Five Elements Sect's notice.

When Fu Zongjue and others broke through their bottlenecks, having received Qing Nü's favor, they would likely welcome her with open arms when she entered the sect as his Dao companion.

After storing the Purple Jade Spirit Rice in his spatial domain, Chen Mobai descended to the summit of Mount Liujia.

Gazing at the Golden Sun Spirit Tree before him, he closed his eyes and listened with his "Echoing Valley Sound." After a long while, he opened his eyes with a regretful expression.

Spirit plants advancing in tier truly was incredibly difficult.

Even with the Immortal Soil environment and a tube of Myriad Transformation Thunder Water, the Golden Sun Spirit Tree still couldn't initiate the transformation on its own.

"Ming'er, you should also communicate with it using 'Myriad Spirits Telepathy.' If there are no issues, I will perform 'Accelerated Growth'."

Chen Mobai's "Echoing Valley Sound" had a broader range of application than Zhuo Ming's "Myriad Spirits Telepathy," but the latter was more specialized than the former within the specific scope of spirit plants.

After learning about Immortal Spiritual Roots, Chen Mobai understood that Zhuo Ming had obtained the highest-grade immortal arts and divine abilities when she "heard the Dao."

This spell almost contained the fundamental Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and could continuously improve with the cultivator's realm. He wondered what realm Zhuo Ming could reach in the future by relying on this spell.

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai recalled his Pure Yang Dharma Body. In fact, not long ago, his Nine Yang Body had shown signs of its first transformation.

However, at that time, he was primarily consuming "Return to Truth Pills" to break through his realm, so he temporarily stopped cultivating with top-grade spirit stones. He planned to fully focus on raising his Fire Spiritual Root to 100 points after his current tasks were completed, to try and experience the "hearing of the Dao" of an Immortal Spiritual Root.

Seeing Zhuo Ming's excellence, Chen Mobai was also filled with anticipation for the moment he would achieve an Immortal Fire Spiritual Root.

Besides this, he also intended to diligently raise his Earth Spiritual Root to 100 points.

If he could obtain a wisp of Innate Earth Essence Qi when "hearing the Dao," he would truly meet the cultivation requirements for the "Primordial Dao Fruit." This way, when he went to the One Yuan Dao Palace in the future, he could do so with justification and full confidence.

"Master, the Golden Sun Spirit Tree indicates that there are no issues. It is fully prepared."

At this moment, Zhuo Ming had finished communicating with the Golden Sun Spirit Tree and reported to Chen Mobai. He nodded, motioned for the two women to step back, then stretched out his hand and cast "Accelerated Growth."

Yin Qingmei also knew this great art, but despite more than twenty years of arduous cultivation, she had only reached the third-tier level.

Therefore, whenever she saw Chen Mobai effortlessly casting at the fourth-tier level, Yin Qingmei, who understood the difficulty of cultivating these great arts best, was deeply shocked by her godfather's talent in spells.

She certainly didn't think she was foolish, as her talent was also at the top tier within the Five Elements Sect.

Yet, even she was far inferior to Chen Mobai, unable to even catch sight of his back. It was clear how astonishing Chen Mobai's talent was.

While Yin Qingmei was astonished by Chen Mobai's fourth-tier "Accelerated Growth" great art, the Golden Sun Spirit Tree, bathed in spiritual light, finally took the step to advance.

The originally tens of meters tall Golden Sun Spirit Tree began to leap and ascend towards the sky. Its thick branches started to burst through the surface bark, growing more tender green new buds, like pieces of jadeite. In the blink of an eye, these grew into lush green leaves the size of two palms.

Each leaf spoke of the power of life, each branch frantically stretched towards the sky, and the tree roots plunged deeper into the ground like coiled dragons. The tree trunk, moreover, expanded two or three times its size at a visible rate.

Gradually, the summit of Mount Liujia began to tremble, seemingly unable to bear the colossal Golden Sun Spirit Tree.

Chen Mobai frowned slightly at this sight, but before he could act, Yin Qingmei and Zhuo Ming, standing nearby, simultaneously flew out, each activating their spiritual power.

Yin Qingmei controlled her innate spirit plant on the mountain top, using its root system to stabilize Mount Liujia's body and regulate the somewhat chaotic spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Zhuo Ming, on the other hand, used "Myriad Spirits Telepathy" to communicate with the earth's spiritual veins, guiding them back to tranquility, and even supplying energy to help the Golden Sun Spirit Tree advance.

Gradually, the Golden Sun Spirit Tree's transformation finally ceased, turning into a colossal tree, its lush canopy shading the sky and obscuring the sun.

Its crown was like a giant green umbrella, covering more than half of Mount Liujia, and the stretched bark patterns on its trunk represented the traces of this advancement.

It was almost a replica of the Three Divine Trees of Giant Wood Ridge.

However, this Golden Sun Spirit Tree had just advanced and was only a tenth to a twelfth the size of the Three Divine Trees, let alone comparable to the Great Dao Tree and others in the Divine Tree Secret Realm.

And at this moment, dark clouds began to gather in the sky, accompanied by rumbling thunder, with faint flashes of crystal-blue cold light.

After the Golden Sun Spirit Tree advanced to become an Immortal Wood, the Heavenly Tribulation descended!

Chen Mobai was curious to witness the power of a fourth-tier spirit plant's Heavenly Tribulation, so he did not cast a Concealment Spell.

Furthermore, when he had listened with his "Echoing Valley Sound" earlier, he discovered that a large portion of the Myriad Transformation Thunder Water inside the Golden Sun Spirit Tree had not yet been digested, as it was only at the peak of the third tier before.

This Heavenly Tribulation was a perfect opportunity to help it disperse and refine all the Myriad Transformation Thunder Water.

In addition to this reason, Chen Mobai also planned to use this opportunity to further refine his Haotian Mirror using the Heavenly Tribulation.

This innate magical artifact was already at the peak of the third tier.

Over the years, Yin Qingmei had achieved some success in cultivating the Haotian Mirror's spirituality using the methods Chen Mobai taught her. When Chen Mobai last came to retrieve the Pure Yang Purple Qi, he had already sensed signs of spirituality being born, but it still lacked a crucial catalyst.

After deducing with his "Inch Square Scroll," Chen Mobai felt that this Heavenly Tribulation should be the catalyst.

Under his instruction, Yin Qingmei immediately took out the Haotian Mirror and flung it towards the edge of the Heavenly Tribulation in the sky.

Rumble!

At the same time, the Heavenly Tribulation had already descended. Streaks of crystal-blue lightning, carrying chilling cold light, struck down onto the newly advanced Immortal Wood's canopy.

Accompanied by rising waves of pure spiritual light, the Immortal Wood, relying on its own strength, blocked the first wave of chilling thunder.

But next came the second wave, the third wave...

A full nine waves of chilling thunder and cold light, like biting sword glints and surging tidal waves, continuously rained down upon the colossal, sky-obscuring tree canopy.

Amidst creaking sounds, the Immortal Wood finally began to falter. Pieces of jadeite-like green leaves began to break off from its branches, then frosted over and fell to the ground, shattering into fragments like glass jade.

As the green leaves shattered piece by piece, the "Heavenly Wood Divine Light" on the surface of the newly advanced Immortal Wood also began to dim.

Chen Mobai immediately took control of the Haotian Mirror, injecting his vast and boundless Pure Yang spiritual power. In an instant, the mirror surface burst forth with a scorching beam of aurora, piercing directly into the very center of the Heavenly Tribulation.

With his current Golden Core eighth-layer realm, activating a peak third-tier innate magical artifact, he was practically unrivaled below the Nascent Soul stage.

However, this Heavenly Tribulation was targeted at a fourth-tier spirit plant, so even though it was pierced by the Haotian Mirror and lost some energy, it still re-condensed the crystal-blue chilling thunder, even beginning to compress as if preparing to unleash its final and most powerful, ferocious wave.

Chen Mobai immediately controlled the Haotian Mirror, radiating its "Profound Yang Divine Light," and flew towards the very center of the Heavenly Tribulation.

Connected to his innate magical artifact by mind, he quickly felt the Haotian Mirror tremble.

Facing a fourth-tier Heavenly Tribulation, even with its fourth-tier Immortal Wood mirror frame, it still felt like a small boat navigating through raging waves, as if it could completely fall apart and be devoured and shattered by the tribulation at any moment.

Under this stimulation, the deepest part of the Haotian Mirror finally gave birth to its first wisp of spirituality!

And at the moment spirituality was born, Chen Mobai felt as if this innate magical artifact had undergone a complete transformation. It even began to mobilize the surrounding solar origin energy on its own, without his command or control, forming wisps of scorching white firelight that transformed into "Grand Sun Fire," countering the crystal-blue chilling thunder.

Grand Sun Fire surged in the very center of the Heavenly Tribulation, instantly detonating all the tribulation's energy that had not yet condensed to its peak!

In the sky, a golden light illuminated the center of the massive dark cloud, as if darkness was receding under the universal illumination of the sun.

But at the moment the dark cloud dissipated, the sky was filled with crystal-blue chilling thunder, raining down like a meteor shower onto the Immortal Wood's canopy, which covered half of Mount Liujia.

However, facing these scattered tribulation lightning bursts, the Immortal Wood, which had thoroughly absorbed and refined all the Myriad Transformation Thunder Water, mustered dense and clear Heavenly Wood Divine Light. It managed to block all of them, not without effort, but also not with extreme difficulty.

At this moment, cultivators and even mortals throughout Hong County looked up and saw two suns appearing in the sky.

Luo Yixuan, who was leading cultivators in opening up the Black Water, looked in the direction, her expression changing. She quickly gave instructions to the Five Elements Sect cultivators below, then immediately headed towards Mount Liujia.

When she flew there, she was slightly surprised to see the sky-obscuring Immortal Wood.

"Junior Sister, why are you here!"

Zhuo Ming's voice sounded in Luo Yixuan's ear. The latter looked down and saw the former waving at her from the base of the Immortal Wood.

Luo Yixuan looked up at the sky and naturally discovered that the one controlling the second sun was her Master.

Not daring to disturb Chen Mobai, she immediately flew down and asked Zhuo Ming.

"Master is cultivating the Haotian Mirror with extraordinary artifact refining techniques, preparing to upgrade this innate magical artifact to the fourth tier..."

After hearing Zhuo Ming's words, Luo Yixuan showed an "as expected" expression.

At this moment, several other streaks of spiritual light flew over.

They were Yan Yuanhao, the garrison commander of Hong County, and other Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Five Elements Sect.

However, they dared not fly up and landed at the foot of Mount Liujia.

Zhuo Ming went down the mountain again to communicate with them. After learning that the Sect Master was there, Yan Yuanhao and the others returned with peace of mind.

Seven days and seven nights later!

The second great sun above Hong County finally dimmed and disappeared.

Chen Mobai flew down, holding the successfully upgraded Haotian Mirror in his hand, constantly turning and playing with it.

"Xuan'er is here too!"

He saw Luo Yixuan and nodded with a smile.

Soon after, they sat down together.

Yin Qingmei looked at the Haotian Mirror in Chen Mobai's hand, which was overflowing with spiritual light and occasionally sparked. Her eyes burned with even greater fervor.

This was a fourth-tier magical artifact!

Throughout the Five Elements Sect, and even the entire Eastern Barrens, such artifacts were exceedingly rare!

However, she also harbored some worries in her heart, fearing that once the Haotian Mirror was upgraded to the fourth tier, her task would be complete, and Chen Mobai would no longer let her control and cultivate it.

"This Haotian Mirror has just been upgraded to the fourth tier, and its spirituality is still unstable. For the next period, I will need to nurture it with my divine sense and spiritual power..."

As soon as Chen Mobai spoke these words, Yin Qingmei involuntarily bit her lip, her expression somewhat disheartened, and her eyes dimmed.

"After I finish nurturing it, I will hand it over to you, Qingmei, for your command."

But the latter half of the sentence made a light reappear in Yin Qingmei's eyes. She immediately nodded repeatedly, indicating her readiness to serve the Sect Master diligently at any time.

Having finished speaking, Chen Mobai retracted the Haotian Mirror back into his body.

This innate magical artifact, after a long absence, returned to his Dantian Qi Sea. The Pure Yang spiritual power, originating from the same source, made it feel as if a fish found water. The newly born spirituality conveyed a simple joy, and in the most suitable environment, it began to grow robustly, being imprinted with Chen Mobai's unique mark.

Before long, Chen Mobai felt that two to three tenths of the Pure Yang spiritual power in his Dantian Qi Sea had been absorbed by the Haotian Mirror. He immediately activated his Small Void Supplement, ensuring the Haotian Mirror would not "starve."

While doing this, he also conversed with Zhuo Ming and the other two women.

"Master, why didn't you tell me you were coming to Hong County? The Immortal Wood advancing and the Haotian Mirror upgrading—it's unlikely I'll ever witness such an event a second time in my life."

Luo Yixuan said somewhat playfully. It wasn't that she enjoyed crowds, but rather that she wished to experience all events by Chen Mobai's side.

"Wasn't I afraid of delaying your progress in opening up the Black Water? Next time the Golden Sun Spirit Tree in Beiyuan City advances, I will certainly call you to observe. At that time, I will also use the Heavenly Tribulation to re-refine this Haotian Mirror..."

Chen Mobai regarded and nurtured his disciples like his own children. Since Luo Yixuan mentioned it, he took it to heart.

"Okay, Master, it's a promise then!"

Luo Yixuan looked very happy after receiving Chen Mobai's promise.

Next, Chen Mobai checked Zhuo Ming's pulse and advised her on her upcoming Body Forging technique cultivation.

However, her Nine-Ren Dharma Body would certainly not have another breakthrough before forming a Golden Core. But after that, due to her strong physique, she could freely consume third-tier spirit rice, pills, and so on.

Chen Mobai instructed her to start consuming Coiling Dragon Spirit Rice daily. This top-grade third-tier spirit rice was the best spirit rice for aiding Body Forging techniques in the Eastern Barrens and even the Eastern Continent.

Chen Mobai had previously obtained some from Kong Lingling's storage bag, but Zhuo Ming had consumed it all over the years, mixing it with second-tier spirit rice.

"I will speak with E Yun about this. Starting this year, he will transfer my share of third-tier spirit rice to you."

After Yan Shaoyin left the Eastern Barrens, Returning Heaven Valley had been compliant with all of Chen Mobai's requests. Although most of the Coiling Dragon Spirit Rice was taken by the Star Heaven Grand Merchant Association, some was still Returning Heaven Valley's share.

Chen Mobai did not demand it; he purchased it all at normal market prices, requesting Returning Heaven Valley to prioritize supplying the Five Elements Sect.

After all, so many Golden Core cultivators in the Five Elements Sect needed to consume third-tier spirit rice.

Before the Purple Jade Spirit Rice had matured, there was only third-tier Pure Bamboo Spirit Rice, which had limited yield, enough only for a taste, not even enough to supply Fu Zongjue daily.

So, they basically purchased it from the Eastern Yi and Returning Heaven Valley.

Chen Mobai had no need for Coiling Dragon Spirit Rice, so he had saved this expense in previous years.

But since Zhuo Ming needed it now, he would not stand on ceremony.

He directly instructed the sect to transfer his share.

For this matter, Zhuo Ming was naturally profusely grateful.

"There's one more thing. Your Nine-Ren Dharma Body was obtained when I killed a Foundation Establishment cultivator on Trembling Mountain Peak. It only had six layers in total. If Ming'er wishes to raise her physical strength to the fourth tier after forming her Golden Core, she will certainly need subsequent cultivation methods."

"This Body Forging technique is said to have originated from the Jiangshan Pavilion, one of the Ten Directions Halls of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court. It has nine layers in total. I will have the Five Elements Sect and Wen Bai help you inquire about the remaining three layers of the cultivation method."

"However, Ming'er, you must also pay attention to this. You are favored by the destiny of the earth. Keeping this matter in mind might lead to unexpected gains."

Chen Mobai also mentioned the Nine-Ren Dharma Body to Zhuo Ming. He had initially thought that obtaining six layers would be sufficient, never realizing that Zhuo Ming's talent in earth-attribute cultivation methods was so outstanding, and that she possessed such astonishing luck.

"Yes, Master!"

Zhuo Ming nodded solemnly, indicating that she had taken note of the matter.

"However, there's no need to focus too much on the Nine-Ren Dharma Body. Your future lies with the 'Earth Immortal Scripture.' If you manage to cultivate this great art in the future, you might even be able to complete the latter parts of the Nine-Ren Dharma Body yourself."

However, to prevent Zhuo Ming from becoming too single-minded in the future, Chen Mobai still offered a preventative warning.

After all, Body Forging techniques were merely supplementary; a cultivator's foundation was still their realm!

If Zhuo Ming could cultivate the "Yellow Emperor's Profound Virtue Scripture" in the future, coupled with her innate magical artifact, the "Myriad Things Profound Virtue Cauldron," her achievements would be limitless. She absolutely must not get stuck on this Nine-Ren Dharma Body.

After advising Zhuo Ming, Chen Mobai bid farewell to Yin Qingmei and left Mount Liujia with Luo Yixuan.

Taking his disciple along the way to the river channel being opened in Black Water, Chen Mobai also descended to inspect this section of the project.

One could only say that there was strength in numbers.

With the continuous influx of rogue cultivators from the Five Elements Sect and even the entire Eastern Barrens Plateau, and the assistance of cultivation families who had tasted the benefits of contracting, the progress on this final great river was a tenth faster than he had imagined.

Of course, Chen Mobai did not forget to praise Luo Yixuan, the person in charge. The latter beamed with joy upon hearing it.

Leaving Hong County, Chen Mobai went to Beiyuan City to take a teleportation array, and also took the opportunity to observe the situation after the handover of this immortal city, which would be the future core of the Eastern Barrens.

The results also greatly satisfied him.

Although the person in charge of the immortal city had changed from E Yun to Yuan Chizhi, and E Yun had taken a group of his trusted confidants from Beiyuan City back to Giant Wood Ridge, Yuan Chizhi followed the established rules, causing most cultivators in Beiyuan City not to feel that the garrison commander had changed.

Seeing Beiyuan City as prosperous as ever, Chen Mobai praised Yuan Chizhi a couple of times, then went to the summit of Mount Beiyuan to see the Immortal Soil on which he had cast "Primordial Plain and Fertile Valley."

The situation was also very pleasing.

Although it lacked Zhuo Ming's care, and the transformation speed was a bit slower, by about this time next year, it would mostly have been upgraded entirely to fourth-tier Immortal Soil.

Chen Mobai then looked at the Golden Sun Spirit Tree he had transplanted to the mountain top. Its spirituality seemed to be slightly more outstanding than the one on Mount Liujia.

He took out a tube of Myriad Transformation Thunder Water and diluted one drop.

"Water it daily until it's all used up!"

Chen Mobai handed the diluted spiritual water to Yuan Chizhi, who immediately took it with both hands, nodding respectfully and promising to complete the task.

After checking all these, Chen Mobai took the city's teleportation array. After successive transfers through the market, he arrived at Mount Tianpeng.

"This is how it's done. Have your sect's Golden Core cultivators consume this for one to two years, and they should be able to break through their bottlenecks."

Qing Nü demonstrated the method for making Purple Jade Porridge in front of Chen Mobai. The method was very simple: after placing Purple Jade Spirit Rice into a spiritual energy rice cooker from the Immortal Sect, add some Barrier-Dispelling Pill ingredients, then select "cook porridge" mode.

This spiritual energy rice cooker had been modified by Chen Mobai; it only required spiritual energy to operate, mainly because he considered that Fu Zongjue and the others might not know how to use it otherwise.

"You've worked hard!"

After staying another night on Mount Tianpeng, Chen Mobai returned to Giant Wood Ridge the next day with a full rice cooker of Purple Jade Porridge.

He directly sought out Fu Zongjue!

"Junior Brother, there actually exists such a miraculous artifact refining tool in this world!"

After hearing Chen Mobai explain the functions of the spiritual energy rice cooker, Fu Zongjue was greatly astonished!

"When I was forming my Golden Core, didn't I encounter a mysterious senior cultivator in the Barren Ruins? Senior Brother Zhou's 'Returning Yang Spiritual Water' was refined with his help."

"Not long ago, I met this senior's disciple again. With her help, I refined a batch of 'Return to Truth Pills,' and my cultivation realm has advanced further, I'm about to reach perfected Golden Core!"

"After that, I also asked her if there were any pills to help Senior Brother break through his bottleneck. She then gave me this medicinal porridge artifact, called a 'rice cooker.' You just need to put these medicinal ingredients and Purple Jade Spirit Rice into it, add an appropriate amount of water, and it will automatically brew Purple Jade Porridge. Consume it for one to two years, and you will naturally break through the mid-Golden Core bottleneck!"

After listening to Chen Mobai's words, Fu Zongjue was both astonished that his junior brother, so young, was already close to perfected Golden Core, and deeply moved within his heart.

Faced with such a senior expert, he could still remember him, his senior brother.

Junior Brother Chen was the most genuinely sincere person he had ever met in the Eastern Barrens!

To have this junior brother in this life was the greatest fortune for him, Fu Zongjue, and also for the entire Five Elements Sect!
