Chapter 4727: The Peak of the Immortal Realm (Finale)

At this Patriarch's celebration, they received numerous fifth-order immortal materials. However, only three of these were defensive, which are extremely rare and not easily released by even a Patriarch.

Top-grade mutated Primordial Spirit Treasures have the potential to evolve into Dao artifacts by absorbing vast quantities of fifth-order immortal materials and fragments of Dao artifacts.

"You don't necessarily have to refine it yourself. You might acquire one Dao artifact, or perhaps even a second. The Immortal Realm is vast, with new treasures emerging daily; who knows what the future holds? We have contended with the Ten-Direction Mother-Child Pagoda for many years, and during this time, multiple innate Dao artifacts have appeared in the Immortal Realm. While Fellow Daoist Qing is currently the strongest in terms of individual power, even more formidable beings might emerge in the future." Meng Kun stated slowly.

No one can truly predict the future. The Immortal Realm is immense, home to countless skilled individuals and rare treasures, and it's always possible that new Dao artifacts will emerge.

"Indeed! Even if Fellow Daoist Wang cannot refine a Post-natal Dao artifact, he might be able to cultivate one using a top-grade mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure. Our Qilin clan's Heavenly Qilin Banner, for instance, advanced into a Dao artifact from a top-grade mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure." The Prime Qilin stated.

Major powers universally collect mutated Primordial Spirit Treasures, recognizing that a top-grade mutated one is merely a step away from becoming a Dao artifact.

"That's true, but top-grade mutated Primordial Spirit Treasures are quite rare. It's already difficult for a Primordial Spirit Treasure to mutate, and even if one is cultivated, its grade won't be exceptionally high. Furthermore, advancing the grade of a mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure is extremely challenging," Wang Changsheng commented.

The Grand Unity Creation Pot, for example, is merely a high-grade immortal artifact. Even after the Kunlun Patriarch collected fifth-order immortal materials for it to absorb, it remained a high-grade immortal artifact, highlighting the even greater difficulty of refining Post-natal artifacts.

Wang Qingshan and his companions seized a mid-grade mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure from the Hunxie King's tribal treasury. Even after Wang Changsheng infused it with numerous fourth-order immortal materials, he could not elevate it to a high-grade immortal artifact, demonstrating the immense difficulty in raising the grade of mutated Primordial Spirit Treasures.

"That's true, but a mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure can indeed raise its grade more easily by absorbing vast amounts of fifth-order immortal materials or Dao artifact fragments. The Heavenly Qilin Banner, for instance, was initially just a high-grade mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure. It only advanced to a top-grade immortal artifact after consuming over a hundred fire-attribute fifth-order immortal materials. The entire process, from a high-grade mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure to a Dao artifact, spanned more than a hundred million years," the Prime Qilin explained.

Having experience in cultivating mutated Primordial Spirit Treasures into Dao artifacts, the Qilin clan, and thus the Prime Qilin, well understood the immense difficulty involved in upgrading such treasures.

Their discussion lasted for three days and three nights. A million immortals attempted to challenge the Qiankun Tower, yet only a handful managed to defeat the elite prodigies of their respective realms. Challengers were astonished to discover that even the 50th-ranked prodigy could integrate multiple laws. Moreover, the ten strongest cultivators guarding each realm were all Wang family immortals, boasting impressive cultivation and power. True Immortal cultivators, for instance, had five opened orifices and either complete sets of immortal artifacts or multiple immortal puppets, which significantly escalated the difficulty of the challenge.

Out of the million immortals who undertook the trials, only dozens succeeded in defeating even one prodigy, meaning the vast majority failed the challenge.

With the Patriarch's celebration concluded, most guests had departed.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan returned to Green Lotus Peak, where Wang Qingfeng approached them, his face beaming with joy.

"Father, Mother, that Shen Long fellow acquired a mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure, and it's a top-grade immortal artifact."

"A top-grade mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure! What are its functions?" Wang Changsheng inquired.

"It can withstand powerful enemies. This treasure, named the Great Wall, can be deployed along our borders to repel attacks from Chaos Beasts. This would allow us to concentrate immortals at strategic passes to hold back the Chaos Beasts, thereby eliminating the need to construct numerous cities and waste valuable manpower and resources," Wang Qingfeng explained that because the border was so vast, even fourth-order immortal formations could not cover a sufficiently large area, though fifth-order ones could. The Immortal Realm once had a master of fifth-order immortal formations who deployed one to block Chaos Beasts, but that Patriarch was ultimately annihilated by a Patriarch-level ten-colored Chaos Beast, and the grand fifth-order formation was subsequently destroyed.

"The Great Wall! Excellent! I'll entrust this task to you," Wang Changsheng stated.

"Why didn't Shen Long present it earlier?" Wang Ruyan asked, perplexed.

"He understood the treasure's immense value and wished to keep it discreet, so he privately presented it to me. He acquired it from Immortal Meteor Valley," Wang Qingfeng clarified.

"Ensure he receives ample rewards; do not shortchange him," Wang Changsheng instructed.

Wang Qingfeng nodded, replying, "Understood, Father. The Divine Mechanism Sect only has one Grand Luo Golden Immortal, so we can provide him with more immortal pills and miraculous elixirs to aid his breakthrough to Grand Luo Golden Immortal. I'll also give him two bottles of immortal pills for cultivating a top-tier immortal body."

"You may handle this matter as you see fit!" Wang Ruyan stated.

Wang Qingfeng acknowledged, then withdrew.

On the Chaos Continent, within the Yiqiu King Mountain Range, lay Yiqiu King City.

Inside Yiqiu King City, Xin occupied the main seat, his gaze commanding.

Lei stood respectfully at his side.

"From this day forward, you shall serve our Yiqiu King tribe. I will ensure you are well compensated," Xin spoke with a gentle tone.

"Yes, Lord Xin," Lei expressed his gratitude, then knelt and kowtowed three times with deep reverence.

It had pursued the Six-Sieve Immortal Lord and narrowly escaped calamity. Had it remained on the main battlefield, it surely would have been annihilated by the Wang family's Grand Luo Golden Immortals. A Grand Luo Golden Immortal-stage ten-colored Chaos Beast was no match for the Wang family's Grand Luo Golden Immortals. After careful consideration, it decided to pledge allegiance to the Yiqiu King tribe, one of the nine major Chaos Beast tribes and among the top three in power.

Naturally, Xin would not refuse a Grand Luo Golden Immortal-stage ten-colored Chaos Beast offering its allegiance.

Lei had comprehended the Law of Time, endowing it with immense power, as most ten-colored Chaos Beasts had not mastered supreme laws. If Lei could ascend to the Patriarch realm, the Yiqiu King tribe's strength would be further solidified.

"You may withdraw now! Do not venture out alone. The Wang family, a Daoist clan, possesses a mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure that can appear anywhere on the Chaos Continent at will," Xin cautioned.

"Yes, Lord Xin," Lei assented and withdrew.

Green Lotus Immortal Domain, Green Lotus Immortal Island.

A golden palace, adorned with intricately carved beams and painted pillars, bore a plaque inscribed with the three golden characters "Green Lotus Hall."

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan stood before the dense rows of spirit tablets. They lit sandalwood incense, placed it in the censer, and then departed.

A million Wang family immortals stood in perfect formation, their expressions solemn.

"Greetings, Ancestors!" the million Wang family immortals declared in unison, their voices resounding across the entire Green Lotus Immortal Island.

Wang Changsheng began, "Our family is now the most powerful cultivation family in the Immortal Realm. Most of you were born here, yet we endured countless hardships to reach our current standing. Today, I wish to tell you about the origins of our family, a story that begins in a lower realm called the Dongli Realm. Our Wang family hailed from a small country in the Eastern Barrens of the Dongli Realm, where we were merely a minor family at that time..."
