Chapter 920: Five Emperor Mountain

The Eastern Lands, Five Emperors Mountain!

As the location of the One-Yuan Dao Palace, it was truly the center of the Eastern Lands during the time when True Monarch One-Yuan ruled the world. Even now, though the sacred ground is sealed off, the One-Yuan Immortal City at the foot of the mountain remains one of the seven great immortal cities of the Eastern Lands, bustling with activity.

This immortal city is managed by four powerful Nascent Soul sects.

However, it is generally known in the Eastern Lands that the Nascent Soul cultivators of these four sects have intricate connections with the One-Yuan Dao Palace. One could even say they were intentionally left behind to maintain contact with the outside world after the Dao Palace sealed its mountain.

Previously, Elder Xingji of the Starry Sky Dao Sect personally came and sought to enter Five Emperors Mountain, but unfortunately, after hearing his intentions, the Nascent Soul cultivators of the four sects all stated they had no way to contact the One-Yuan Dao Palace.

Yet, as soon as Xingji left, this information was immediately sent up to Five Emperors Mountain.

And today, another piece of news was delivered to Five Emperors Mountain.

"Chen Qingdi!?"

On Five Emperors Mountain, four Venerable Nascent Soul cultivators sat in a circle in a grand hall. They all looked astonished as they gazed at the cultivator appearing in a basin of water in the center.

"There was news of this Chen Qingdi before, but at that time I dismissed it as nonsense and didn't report it. Today, I just received news that he slayed a fourth-tier poisonous dragon in Yunmeng Marsh, so I felt it was necessary to inform all you Mountain Lords."

The one appearing in the basin was Venerable Xuan Shui, an outer sect elder of the One-Yuan Dao Palace who remained at the foot of Five Emperors Mountain. He was also a Nascent Soul cultivator. With the One-Yuan Dao Palace sealed off, Venerable Xuan Shui was essentially in charge of all matters in the One-Yuan Immortal City.

When news of Chen Qingdi, the One-Yuan Dao Child, reached his ears, Venerable Xuan Shui, knowing full well that no Dao Child or Saintess had descended from Five Emperors Mountain, naturally scoffed at it.

However, since there was a hint of the Nine Heavens Demon Eradication Sect involved, and after the Big Dipper Grand Assembly, a Sand Master from the Flying Sand Sect of the Barren Sea died from Primordial Chaos True Qi, Xuan Shui did not rush to refute the rumors, intending to observe the situation further.

When news later arrived that Chen Mobai had successfully formed his Nascent Soul in the Eastern Wilderness, Xuan Shui decided it was better to remain silent.

After all, the current generation's Dao Child and Saintess of the One-Yuan Dao Palace had not yet formed their Nascent Souls.

With Ye Qing and other cultivators from fellow sacred grounds having successfully formed their Nascent Souls, it wouldn't hurt to have a Chen Qingdi boosting the prestige of the One-Yuan Dao Palace.

From then on, Chen Qingdi's name also entered Xuan Shui's radar.

Xuan Shui was also clear about this person's origins.

Eastern Wilderness, Five Elements Sect.

He must have inherited the lineage of Li Zhongji. Although Li Zhongji was indeed the youngest disciple of the One-Yuan Ancestor, he had already severed ties with the main lineage of Five Emperors Mountain and separated long ago.

To persuade Li Zhongji to agree to the separation, Grand Elder Wuming even personally went to the Daoist Virtue Sect to request someone to refine a furnace of Nascent Soul Condensing Pills for him.

After sending this extraordinarily high-ranking junior grand-uncle to the Eastern Wilderness, the One-Yuan Dao Palace began to set things right. Unfortunately, they had bad luck and were targeted by Mingzun, who had mastered demonic arts, leading to an attack on their mountain gate.

Although they awakened the Ancestor's avatar and repelled Mingzun, they suffered heavy losses themselves. The Grand Elder and the five Mountain Lords were severely weakened and had to seal off the mountain to recuperate and restore their fundamental essence.

Later, wishing to maintain the dignity of a sacred ground, the One-Yuan Dao Palace sent out its two most outstanding disciples as 'World Walkers' of the sacred ground, but they were ambushed by the demonic path; one died, and one escaped.

Subsequently, Grand Elder Wuming's failed attempt to ascend to the God Transformation stage and his subsequent demise led to the One-Yuan Dao Palace completely sealing off its mountain.

Regarding Li Zhongji, the One-Yuan Dao Palace held two main attitudes.

One was led by Grand Elder Wuming: out of sight, out of mind. The other was the belief that they should find a way to control him to prevent the leakage of the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit.

After Li Zhongji was sent to the Eastern Wilderness, the One-Yuan Dao Palace initially sent people to monitor him, intending to reclaim True Monarch One-Yuan's inheritance after Li Zhongji's demise.

Given Li Zhongji's seniority, the One-Yuan Dao Palace found it difficult to act against him directly. However, they had no such qualms about Li Zhongji's disciples. They had originally planned to send their World Walkers to the Eastern Wilderness to eliminate anyone cultivating the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit within the Five Elements Sect.

For this reason, Chen Qingdi, in the eyes of several radical Mountain Lords, was someone who should be eliminated.

But now, circumstances had changed.

After all, they were so battered by the demonic path that they couldn't even leave their homes.

"Since this Chen Qingdi, at the early Nascent Soul stage, could slay a peak fourth-tier poisonous dragon, it's clear he must have cultivated the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit, and to an extremely profound degree. Otherwise, such a feat would be utterly impossible."

The Mountain Lord of Fire Virtue spoke first.

At his words, the other three nodded in agreement.

In their view, Chen Qingdi's ability to kill the poisonous dragon, overcoming two minor cultivation stages, was primarily due to the mysterious and exceptional Primordial Chaos True Qi, which overrides all Five Elements in the world, in addition to the poisonous dragon being a wild beast with no cultivation methods, possessing only brute strength and demonic energy.

"Now, many factions in the Eastern Lands are inquiring whether Chen Qingdi is our Dao Palace's Dao Child. How should I respond?"

Venerable Xuan Shui in the basin asked.

"No need to respond. The Dao Palace is currently at a low point and needs time to recover. Let Chen Qingdi help us draw some attention."

The Mountain Lord of Metal Virtue, with a cold expression, spoke. The other three exchanged glances but did not nod in agreement this time.

Mountain Lord of Fire Virtue: "If we need to attract attention, why not just admit it?"

Mountain Lord of Metal Virtue: "He inherited Li Zhongji's lineage, and they already swore to separate before the Ancestor's statue back then."

Mountain Lord of Wood Virtue: "The Dao Palace is currently weak. For the Reclamation a century from now, the other three sacred grounds have already informed us that we must send someone. If this person can grow, he could represent us and preserve the Dao Palace's strength."

Mountain Lord of Water Virtue: "If we acknowledge him, wouldn't all our efforts to finally kick Li Zhongji out be for naught?"

The four Mountain Lords' opinions were divided into two factions. Some believed that since the One-Yuan Dao Palace could not cultivate a Dao Child capable of contending with other sacred grounds, it would be a good thing to gain a talent from a branch sect.

Others, however, believed that if acknowledged, this person would have legitimate reasons to return to Five Emperors Mountain in the future, to observe the ascension secret arts left by the One-Yuan Ancestor, receive the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit inheritance, and so on.

This was somewhat unacceptable for Nascent Soul cultivators who hoped to inherit the Dao Fruit themselves.

"Where's Earth Virtue? Let him come out of seclusion and cast a vote."

It was two against two, and neither side could convince the other, so finally, the Mountain Lord of Fire Virtue decided on a vote.

The five top cultivators of the One-Yuan Dao Palace who had formed Nascent Souls by cultivating the Five Elements techniques would inherit the positions of the five great Mountain Lords. These five Mountain Lords, according to the rules of the One-Yuan Dao Palace, were originally meant to assist in cultivating the Primordial Chaos True Qi.

Unfortunately, Grand Elder Wuming had passed away, the Dao Child who should have matured in the previous generation had died, and the Saintess had gone missing. Thus, in the One-Yuan Dao Palace now, these five had the final say.

"Earth Virtue is in seclusion. He's the most likely to master the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit, so he definitely wouldn't agree."

The Mountain Lord of Metal Virtue spoke expressionlessly.

"Huh!"

At this moment, the Mountain Lord of Wood Virtue suddenly uttered a sound of surprise, rose from his seat, left the hall, and looked towards a fifth-tier spiritual vein cave dwelling halfway up Five Emperors Mountain.

They saw immensely dense Five Elements spiritual energy transform into multi-colored light streams, forming misty, colorful clouds that enveloped the entire cave dwelling.

Rumbles!

In the originally clear sky, a muffled thunderclap suddenly resounded, causing the Five Elements spiritual energy to begin to fluctuate.

"Lingming is about to form his Nascent Soul!"

The other three Mountain Lords who followed out were also slightly surprised at this sight.

After all, the One-Yuan Dao Palace was a sacred ground, and it also had its own Dao Child and Saintess in this generation.

The Dao Child was named Chen Lingming, and the Saintess was named Xiao Yuli.

The only strict requirement to be chosen as a Dao Child or Saintess of the One-Yuan Dao Palace was the ability to cultivate the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit.

Among them, Chen Lingming possessed a Heavenly Earth Spirit Root, while Xiao Yuli had an Earth Spirit Physique.

If Chen Lingming could successfully form his Nascent Soul, then according to the rules of the One-Yuan Dao Palace, he would become the Palace Master and the next Grand Elder.

Thinking of this, some Mountain Lords felt anticipation, while others frowned.

But soon, everyone sighed!

The tribulation clouds in the sky dispersed, and the originally condensed Five Elements spiritual energy began to slowly dissipate.

This indicated a failed Nascent Soul formation.

"Cough, cough, cough... Please forgive me, Mountain Lords, I have failed the Dao Palace's expectations..."

A handsome young man walked out of the cave dwelling. After gently coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood, starlight emerged from all over his body. In a short while, his essence, qi, and spirit were fully restored, and he seemed to have turned back time, returning to his state before attempting to form his Nascent Soul.

"This is the last portion of Three Lights Divine Water in the Dao Palace. Grand Elder truly left it for you."

Seeing this scene, the Mountain Lord of Metal Virtue spoke with some disappointment.

In his opinion, someone with the Heavenly Earth Spirit Root aptitude should have successfully formed a Nascent Soul directly.

"You failed to form your Nascent Soul and used up the Three Lights Divine Water, so now Yuli's Nascent Soul formation will have no safeguard..."

As the Mountain Lord of Wood Virtue spoke, a five-colored spiritual light flew over, and a female cultivator with crescent-like brows and delicate features descended. She coldly looked at Chen Lingming, who had failed to form his Nascent Soul.

She was Xiao Yuli, the current Saintess of the One-Yuan Dao Palace.

"There are still some fifth-tier spiritual materials in the Dao Palace. If you two are willing to go down the mountain, you can go to Mount Dongyue and trade with the Starry Sky Dao Sect for Three Lights Divine Water."

The Mountain Lord of Wood Virtue's attitude was gentler. She also saw that Xiao Yuli was already on the verge of forming her Nascent Soul and proposed a solution.

"There's no need for both the Dao Child and Saintess to descend the mountain together, is there?"

The Mountain Lord of Fire Virtue spoke with some hesitation; the last time the Dao Child and Saintess descended the mountain, it left too deep an impression on him.

"Lingming's Three Lights Divine Water was left to him by the Grand Elder, so it's not considered using the Dao Palace's resources. If the Dao Child and Saintess desire Three Lights Divine Water, they will have to take this risk. Of course, if they plan to risk their lives directly, we have no objections."

The words of the Mountain Lord of Water Virtue silenced both Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli.

"This disciple is willing!"

The life-saving function of Three Lights Divine Water was simply too important. After some thought, they both agreed to descend the mountain.

"In that case, there's one more thing you need to know. In the Eastern Wilderness, there's a Chen Qingdi..."

Half a day later.

A portal in Five Emperors Mountain's restrictions opened, and Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli stepped out.

They concealed their identities and left One-Yuan Immortal City via a teleportation array. After an unknown number of transfers, they stopped at a medium-sized market city in the Eastern Lands.

"Why did you intentionally fail to form your Nascent Soul?"

Xiao Yuli asked Chen Lingming.

"Do you really think forming a Nascent Soul is that easy? I simply lack the talent, so I failed."

Chen Lingming replied with a calm expression. Xiao Yuli gave him a deep look and did not pursue the topic further.

Xiao Yuli: "Should we go to the Starry Sky Dao Sect first, or the Eastern Wilderness?"

Chen Lingming: "Let's act separately. That way, even if the demonic path comes knocking, our chances of survival will be higher."

Xiao Yuli: "Then where do you want to go?"

Chen Lingming: "You choose first, and I'll go to the other place."

Xiao Yuli ultimately chose the Starry Sky Dao Sect, as she desperately needed the Three Lights Divine Water.

Just as the two were about to part ways at the teleportation array, a violent spiritual energy fluctuation suddenly erupted from the center of the market city, shooting towards the sky.

Subsequently, several streaks of Core Formation spiritual light flew up, seemingly fleeing in panic, but soon a flash of orange-red light emerged, catching up.

Heads fell from the sky, one by one.

Chen Mobai, naturally, had no idea that the One-Yuan Dao Palace had once again dispatched its Dao Child and Saintess after more than a hundred years.

He was busy stationed at Bright Mirror Mountain, directing Yue Zutao in the Eastern Lands to collect main and auxiliary ingredients for medicine.

Within the Immortal Sect, there was a Pure Yang Condensing True Pill that could help cultivators with fire-attribute Yang refine their true qi and elevate their cultivation.

It was also the best elixir for Nascent Soul cultivators of the Pure Yang Scroll. However, in the Immortal Sect, it had only been refined a few times when Patriarch Yuanyang was alive, primarily to enhance his disciples' cultivation so they could wield the Yuanyang Sword.

Later, after confirming that Pluto had completely moved away from Earth Star, such wasteful practices were halted.

After Chen Mobai formed his Nascent Soul, Qing Nü began working on improving this elixir formula.

However, this superior fourth-tier elixir was almost as difficult as the Nascent Cultivating Pill. Even for her, it took a long time to successfully overcome the challenges.

Hundreds of auxiliary ingredients were mostly collected, about eighty to ninety percent, with the help of the Eastern Wilderness and Eastern Yi regions. Yue Zutao had also managed to purchase the occasional few types in the Eastern Lands.

Only the fourth-tier main ingredients remained, which were exceptionally rare even in the Eastern Lands.

Moreover, they generally could not be bought with spirit stones; only by exchanging them for other medicinal or spiritual materials of the same tier that the other party needed could they be acquired.

Fortunately, the Five Elements Sect was now a massive enterprise, and having also acquired the foundations of the Mysterious Expanse Dao Palace and the King Crane Gate, Yue Zutao quickly negotiated a deal in the Eastern Lands.

However, fourth-tier medicinal materials were simply too precious. Yue Zutao felt that if he were to exchange them with the forces in the Eastern Lands himself, he would likely be robbed by unknown rogue cultivators as soon as he stepped out of the sect. Thus, he strongly urged Chen Mobai to go in person.

Considering the local customs, Chen Mobai thought Yue Zutao's point was valid.

Although he wasn't particularly keen on going to the Eastern Lands, given that it concerned his cultivation and his mastery of void walking, Chen Mobai believed there was no significant danger on this trip, so he took a large teleportation array to go.

Because he remembered Ye Qing mentioning she wanted to introduce him to True Monarch Xuantian, Chen Mobai did not inform Ye Qing after arriving at Nine Heavens Immortal City. Instead, he discreetly joined Yue Zutao, carrying a storage bag full of fourth-tier medicinal materials, to trade with the various factions they had arranged deals with.

It proved that Yue Zutao's concerns were very valid.

Every time he completed a transaction and stepped out, Chen Mobai could sense subtle gazes following him.

It was *every* time!

However, few actually made a move. Only two factions, perhaps unaware of Chen Mobai's cultivation, kept sending people to follow him.

One day, Chen Mobai arrived at a medium-sized market city established by a Nascent Soul-tier force called Misty Palace.

In this market city, after he and Yue Zutao exchanged a fourth-tier Purple Qi Wood at a sect's pharmacy as agreed, they were about to leave when they suddenly found the main gate tightly shut.

Subsequently, six Core Formation cultivators emerged from the shadows, holding array flags, and formed a low-grade fourth-tier array.

"Act quickly, but still give Misty Palace some face," said the leading Core Formation cultivator. He was an elder of the Maple Leaf Pharmacy, and he had teamed up with two other factions who had been following Chen Mobai, intending to make a fortune.

Since the market city they were in was established by a powerful Nascent Soul sect, there were naturally rules to ensure safety within the market.

However, this was the prevailing atmosphere in Eastern Continent; as long as you were clean about it, Misty Palace wouldn't specifically trouble them over a death.

This pharmacy had done such things several times before.

So, after he finished speaking, the other five Core Formation cultivators all nodded, then injected spiritual power into their array flags, forming a dark purple smoke screen that enveloped Chen Mobai and Yue Zutao.

This was the low-grade fourth-tier Dark Purple Misty Net Array, produced by Misty Palace. Even an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator, if covered by its light barrier, would be unable to summon true qi for a short time.

It was originally sold to pharmacies within the market city for self-protection, but who knew it would become a weapon for them to rob and kill Core Formation cultivators.

Just as the dark purple smoke screen was about to cover the two, the leading Core Formation cultivator saw that Chen Mobai and Yue Zutao's expressions remained unchanged, and suddenly felt a jolt in his heart.

And at this moment, Chen Mobai pulled the stopper from the green gourd at his waist, revealing the recently mastered, peak fourth-tier Yuanyang Sword Aura.

A brilliant orange-red ray burst forth, effortlessly slicing through the dark purple smoke screen. The two Core Formation cultivators who had charged ahead had no time to react and were instantly cut in half at the waist.

"No good, it's a Nascent Soul old monster!"

Seeing this scene, how could the remaining few not realize they had provoked a 'fisherman'?

They immediately used the array flags in their hands to detonate the Dark Purple Misty Net Array, then, using the opportunity of the market city's spiritual veins shaking and spiritual energy surging, they fled in different directions.

Amidst the rumbling sounds.

The Maple Leaf Pharmacy in the center of the market city instantly exploded. Because it had agitated the spiritual veins, Venerable Lan Yan, who was in seclusion at Misty Palace afar, was immediately alerted.

Venerable Lan Yan immediately used a teleportation array and rushed to the market city.

"Huh!"

As soon as Venerable Lan Yan emerged from the teleportation array, she noticed Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli, who were at the peak Core Formation stage. Had she not also sensed another unfamiliar Nascent Soul aura in the market city, she might have mistakenly thought it was their doing.

"Seal the teleportation array!"

After giving Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli a warning look, Venerable Lan Yan instructed the elder who followed her, then directly headed towards the distant Nascent Soul aura that caused her divine sense to feel a slight prickle.

No sooner had she flown out of the teleportation array than she saw a brilliant orange-red ray shoot into the sky. Amidst the thunderous roar of a sword, it instantly circled, slicing all the Core Formation cultivators fleeing in four directions into two halves.

It was even a Nascent Soul sword cultivator!

Seeing this scene, Venerable Lan Yan's heart immediately tightened.

Among cultivators of the same realm, sword cultivators were people no one wanted to provoke, as their combat power was simply too formidable.

After seeing Chen Mobai fly up from the pharmacy ruins, Venerable Lan Yan hesitated for a moment. Considering that this was her territory after all, she still braved it, wielding a defensive artifact, and went to meet him.

"Fellow Daoist, why did you act in my Misty Palace's market city?"

Chen Mobai saw the beautiful female cultivator before him and politely greeted her, then explained the reason for his actions.

"How outrageous! I didn't expect the Maple Leaf Sect to be such a den of iniquity. Fellow Daoist, please wait. I will immediately send people to wipe out this sect as an apology."

After Venerable Lan Yan knew Chen Mobai was a sword cultivator, she had no intention of fighting him. As soon as she heard Chen Mobai's reason, she immediately recognized it as an excellent way to step down gracefully.

She first expressed her apologies to Chen Mobai for her lax management, then furiously summoned four Core Formation cultivators from Misty Palace within the market city, ordering them to eradicate the entire Maple Leaf Sect a hundred li away.

"Fellow Daoist, although my Misty Palace is a humble sect in the countryside, we do have some refreshing fruits. Perhaps you would like to come to my place and try some..."

Venerable Lan Yan very courteously invited Chen Mobai to be a guest at her sect, intending to offer an apology at the same time.

"You're too kind, Fellow Daoist. I still have some matters to attend to at home, so I won't bother you further."

Chen Mobai shook his head and refused. At this moment, Yue Zutao had already collected the storage bags of the six Core Formation cultivators he had slain. There were also two fourth-tier medicinal ingredients they had brought for trade inside.

Venerable Lan Yan pretended not to see anything and personally escorted Chen Mobai and his companion to the teleportation array.

"Activate the teleportation array to send off our distinguished guests!"

The elder who had just sealed the teleportation array at Venerable Lan Yan's request reluctantly mustered his spiritual power again and activated the array.

"Farewell!"

After Chen Mobai spoke, he and Yue Zutao successively disappeared into the teleportation array.

Venerable Lan Yan, who had just smiled and said 'take your time, no need to see you off,' immediately turned grim after they left.

"I've only been in seclusion for a dozen years, and you dare to provoke a Nascent Soul sword cultivator and bring him here? Do these curs truly think my rules are just for show!"

Hearing Venerable Lan Yan's furious words, the three Core Formation elders standing by were as silent as cicadas in winter.

"Investigate all of them! Anyone who has done such things will be expelled from the market city!"

The Core Formation elder in charge of the market city immediately left, hoping in his heart that his own actions from previous years wouldn't be discovered.

"Where are those two Core Formation cultivators from before?"

At this moment, Venerable Lan Yan did not see Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli, so she couldn't help but ask the elder in charge of the teleportation array.

"They left after the teleportation array was sealed. They might be somewhere in the market city."

Both of them were at the peak of Core Formation, and the elder had to guard the teleportation array, so naturally, he didn't dare to pursue.

Upon hearing this, Venerable Lan Yan immediately flew up, and her vast Nascent Soul stage divine sense emerged, enveloping the entire market city in an instant.

However, she found nothing; it seemed Chen Lingming and Xiao Yuli had already left the market city.

After sensing Venerable Lan Yan's divine sense disappear, Chen Lingming lowered the invisibility talisman in his hand.

The two of them were still in the market city.

"That Nascent Soul sword cultivator just now was very powerful."

Xiao Yuli spoke, and not far from them lay the corpse of a cultivator slain by the Yuanyang Sword Aura.

"The realm of Sword Aura Thunder Sound, coupled with a superior fourth-tier sword aura—one more step, and it would be condensing the sword into threads, a means for invincibility among Nascent Soul cultivators."

In comparison, Chen Lingming was also a sword cultivator and thus even more aware of Chen Mobai's terrifying power.

"I wonder which sword sect's ancestor he is. It seems to be a fire-attribute sword art. Could it be a Nascent Soul cultivator from one of the Five Blazing Heaven Lineages?"

"It could also be someone from a sacred ground. If only I had such cultivation."

After talking for a while, their words expressed great yearning for Chen Mobai's sword dao realm.

As the Dao Child and Saintess of a sacred ground, they clearly knew that someone capable of condensing a sword into threads, even if unable to reach the God Transformation stage in the future, would at least be able to dominate the Nascent Soul realm.

Among the sword cultivators in the Eastern Lands, those with such a realm were few and far between.

Both could sense Chen Mobai's immense vitality, indicating he was not old, yet he was already on the verge of condensing his sword into threads, meaning he was very likely to achieve this realm in the future.

Chen Mobai, naturally, had no idea that he had just crossed paths with the legitimate Dao Child and Saintess of the One-Yuan Dao Palace.

After collecting all the materials for the Pure Yang Condensing True Pill, he immediately returned to Eastern Yi.

After summoning Fu Zongjue and Sheng Zhaoxi to help guard Bright Mirror Mountain, Chen Mobai and Qing Nü went together to Myriad Transformations Immortal City.

Although it was the first time refining the Pure Yang Condensing True Pill, with Qing Nü's expertise and Chen Mobai's assistance with the Grand Supreme Fire, the success rate was naturally assured.

A year later, the Pure Yang Cauldron opened, and nine fully nurtured Pure Yang Condensing True Pills flew out, all collected by Chen Mobai using the Grand Unity Five Smoke Veil.

These Pure Yang Condensing True Pills resembled fiery jade, shimmering with a crystalline luster. Just by smelling them, Chen Mobai felt the pure yang true qi within his body become even more refined and concentrated.

Qing Nü took one pill for examination and found that the content of pill toxins was considerable, almost reaching 1.

However, Chen Mobai was immune to all poisons, so he didn't care at all.

As soon as the elixir was complete, Chen Mobai immediately returned to the Immortal Sect for seclusion.

Because he possessed the Heavenly Origin Pearl, a portable fifth-tier spiritual vein, it didn't matter where he consumed the elixir. He went to the Immortal Sect simply to leave a record of his cultivation advancement.

Time swiftly passed for another year.

Chen Mobai consumed three Pure Yang Condensing True Pills one after another. On this very day, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the Wangwu Grotto-Heaven began to gather towards his residence.

Wisps of extremely pure spiritual energy condensed into tiny dewdrops, as if a light, drizzling rain was falling onto the rooftop.

Shi Wanyu and her daughter Chen Xiaohei curiously walked out. Then, a sword cry resounded, and Chen Mobai burst out of seclusion with a hearty laugh, having already broken through to the third layer of the Nascent Soul realm.
