Chapter 1256 : Qi Luck Dao Gold

"I owe Senior a debt of gratitude. This is the least I could do."

Eldrin (Person Name) gave a slight nod before shifting his gaze toward Sun Princess (Person Name) and the other 2.

After years apart, the 3 elders of Glazed Paradise had made significant progress in their cultivation.

Among the 3, Sun Ji had weathered 4 great tribulations and, with the support of Glazed Paradise, had significantly enhanced her mastery over the Great Sun Rule Power.

Yue Ji had also made significant progress in her cultivation, now standing just half a step away from the Half-Step Earth Immortal realm.

Back in the day, Star Princess had obtained the supreme-grade Star Source gifted by Eldrin (Person Name). Now, her cultivation had finally advanced a step further, breaking through to the Half-Step Earth Immortal realm.

At this thought, Eldrin retrieved 2 green lotus seeds from his sleeve and spoke, "These are items I obtained by chance. Bringing them here today might prove useful to the 3 of you."

"Oh."

Riyue and her 2 companions couldn't help but show astonishment upon seeing these 2 lotus seeds.

With their discerning eyes, the 3 women could naturally perceive the wondrous uses of these lotus seeds, and a flicker of desire surfaced in their expressions.

Lady Riji was in a better position. She had already cultivated the Great Sun Rule and achieved the Primordial Chaos True Body, the ‘Great Sun Divine Body’. All she needed was to survive the Terrestrial Immortal Tribulation to break through to the Half-Step Terrestrial Immortal realm. This item was no longer of great use to her.

However, Star Princess and Moon Princess both revealed expressions of ecstatic joy.

Between the 2, Star Princess had already mastered the Laws of Stars, yet her Astral Divine Body had not reached the Heaven-Opening Realm. This object would be of immense use to her.

Both Princess Yue’s Moon God Laws and her Xi Yue Divine Body were only half a step away from reaching the Heaven-Opening Realm. This treasure was precisely what she urgently needed, which was why both women were deeply tempted.

Realizing the preciousness of the lotus seed, Yue Ji and Xing Ji instinctively turned their gazes toward Glazed Divine Lord. Though they possessed considerable wealth, such an extraordinary treasure was beyond their means to acquire.

"You 2 girls."

Seeing the expressions on the 2 women's faces, the Glazed Divine Lord couldn't help but shake her head with a wry smile.

She gazed at Eldrin, then spoke softly, "This artifact is truly extraordinary, yet I cannot accept it without reciprocity. You may request any treasure you desire."

"The treasure I desire..."

Eldrin pondered silently for a moment. The treasure he currently desired most was naturally the Heavenly Spiritual Root.

However, the value of a spiritual root of this grade is simply immeasurable, far beyond what 2 lotus seeds could ever match.

If he asked for too little, he would suffer a loss; if he demanded too much, he would appear ungrateful.

After a moment of contemplation, he ventured cautiously, "If you are willing, Esteemed Senior, you may bestow upon me any treasures as you see fit."

"You little rascal."

The Glazed Divine Sovereign couldn't help but shake her head with a light chuckle. As 1 of the 9 Heavens Divine Sovereigns, she would naturally never be stingy when making a move.

She cast a glance at Eldrin, then said thoughtfully, "Given your current level of cultivation, ordinary treasures would likely be of little use to you now."

"Then I shall bestow this upon you."

As her words faded, she flicked her sleeve, and a golden light descended onto Eldrin's hand.

But as the treasure manifested, it transformed into a pure golden ingot. This ingot weighed a mere 1 qian, appearing no larger than a single grain of rice.

Yet within it lay a power of boundless providence, as if forged from the very essence of a realm's grand destiny.

"Could this be..."

Gazing at the treasure in his hand, Eldrin formed several conjectures and couldn't help but speak with hesitation.

Numinous Sovereign Liuli gave a slight nod and then spoke, "This is the Kismet Dao Gold, forged from the fortune I have gathered throughout the Glazed Paradise."

"Indeed, it is this very object."

A tremor ran through Eldrin's heart, and he could not help but reveal a trace of wild joy in his expression.

Long before attaining immortality, Eldrin had heard of the legendary Fortune Dao Gold—a supreme treasure forged from the convergence of boundless providence.

An Immortal at the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Ascension, if able to refine even a single qian of Fate-Forged Gold, would gain boundless fortune’s blessing. The likelihood of comprehending a Law Dao Fruit would greatly increase, while the possibility of achieving a World-Opening Dao Fruit would rise by at least 30 to 40 percent.

If there were indeed 1 or 2 strands of Fortune Dao Gold, it would be of great benefit even to an Earth Immortal of the ninth level like the Glazed Spirit Lord—enough to increase her chances of comprehending a Dao Principle by 30 percent.

However, if 1 possesses a sufficient amount of Fortune Dao Gold, even for a mighty Celestial Immortal, it would yield significant benefits. This alone demonstrates the invaluable nature of Fortune Dao Gold.

Seeing the expression on Eldrin’s face, the Glazed Divine Monarch smiled faintly and said, “There is only 1 mace of this Fate Dao Gold, but it should be sufficient for someone at your realm.”

"In exchange for 2 of your Green Lotuses, you won't be at a disadvantage."

"You flatter me." Eldrin quickly took the Dao Gold of Fortune, saying with delight, "By bestowing this treasure upon me, Senior, it is I who has gained the greater advantage."

Glazed Divinity Sovereign gave a slight nod, then cast a glance at Seraphina Qu (Person Name) before speaking calmly, "Seraphina Qu’s 7 Extinctions Spirit-Severing Sword (Magic Treasure) has yet to be fully forged. It is not yet time for it to undergo tribulation and emerge into the world."

"This time I shall keep her within the Glazed Paradise until the great calamity subsides. Once we gather all the spiritual treasures required for the 7 Severing Soul-Slaying Sword, I shall assist her in breaking through to the Earth Immortal realm."

Eldrin exchanged a glance with Seraphina Qu upon hearing this, then sighed deeply. "If the Divine Sovereign is willing to offer Seraphina Qu protection, this junior could not be more grateful."

"This matter shall trouble the Divine Lord."

"Hmm."

Glazed Divinity Sovereign gave a slight nod. Rising to her full height, she ascended skyward with Seraphina Qu (Person Name).

High in the vast expanse of the heavens, a celestial scar slowly tore open, spilling boundless 7-colored radiance that bathed the world and enveloped the magnificent Glazed Paradise.

In an instant, the entire Glazed Paradise rose into the air and soared into the heavenly rift.

As the Blessed Land Stele was withdrawn, only immortal mists lingered between heaven and earth, as if the former Glazed Blessed Land had vanished without a trace.

"We bid farewell to the Ancestor!"

As the Glazed Divine Lord was about to vanish, Eldrin and the 3 celestial maidens offered a slight bow and said.

The Glazed Divine Sovereign cast 1 last glance at the group and sighed, "The great calamity approaches. I shall seal the mountain to evade this tribulation."

"Since you have chosen to enter this tribulation, remember to act with utmost caution. Should you meet your end, with your cultivation shattered and Dao extinguished, it would merely prove your inadequacy. This Sovereign will not intervene in your calamity."

The 3 Elders of the Sun, Moon, and Stars bowed slightly upon hearing this and said, "Many thanks for the reminder, Ancestral Elder. We, your juniors, shall take it to heart."

"Go now. May you all attain the realm of Earth Immortals by the time I emerge from seclusion!"

With those words, Lord Liuli and Seraphina Qu (Person Name) stepped into the boundless void, vanishing completely without a trace, leaving only a faint aura of primordial creation lingering over the Liuli Sea.

Only when he could no longer sense the Earth Immortal realm’s presence did Eldrin let out a soft sigh of relief. He turned to the 3 celestial maidens beside him and asked, “The great tribulation approaches. What are your thoughts on how we should face this calamity?”

Upon hearing this, both Moon Princess and Star Princess slightly furrowed their brows, instinctively turning their gaze toward Sun Princess.

That day, as the Grand Elder of Glazed Paradise, Immortal Ji was merely a 4 Tribulation Immortal, yet her strength and methods rivaled even those of 6 Tribulation Immortals, making her the backbone of the 3 women.

Chapter 1 The biting northern wind swept across the mountain range, howling like countless vengeful spirits. Snowflakes danced wildly in the air, blanketing the jagged peaks in a layer of pristine white. Upon a solitary cliff stood a young man, his robes tattered and stained with blood. His name was Lin Feng, an outer sect disciple of the Azure Cloud Sect. "3 years..." Lin Feng murmured, his voice barely audible above the wind. "3 years since I crossed into this world, yet my cultivation remains stagnant at the third level of Body Refinement." He clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white. In his previous life, he had been a top-tier assassin, feared by all. Yet in this world of cultivation, he was nothing but an ant. The memory of his transmigration flashed through his mind—a blinding light, then darkness, and now this. Suddenly, a sharp voice cut through the wind. "Well, if it isn't the trash who can't even break through to the fourth level!" Lin Feng turned to see a sneering youth approaching, flanked by 2 lackeys. It was Zhang Hu, a bully who took pleasure in tormenting weaker disciples. Zhang Hu's cultivation had recently reached the fifth level of Body Refinement, making him even more arrogant. "Hand over your monthly allocation of spirit stones, trash," Zhang Hu demanded, stopping before Lin Feng. "Someone as useless as you doesn't deserve them." Lin Feng's eyes narrowed. "No." Zhang Hu laughed mockingly. "What did you say? Have you grown a backbone overnight?" The 2 lackeys chuckled along, their expressions contemptuous. "I said no," Lin Feng repeated calmly, though his heart raced. He knew he stood no chance against Zhang Hu in a direct confrontation, but something within him refused to back down this time. Zhang Hu's face darkened. "It seems you need a reminder of your place!" He stepped forward, throwing a punch infused with spiritual energy. The air whistled as his fist shot toward Lin Feng's face. Time seemed to slow for Lin Feng. His assassin instincts kicked in, and he sidestepped with practiced ease. As Zhang Hu stumbled forward, Lin Feng delivered a sharp chop to the back of his neck. "Ah!" Zhang Hu cried out, collapsing to the ground. The 2 lackeys stared in shock, unable to process what had just happened. Zhang Hu, a fifth level Body Refinement cultivator, had been defeated by someone at the third level? Lin Feng stood over Zhang Hu, his expression cold. "The strong prey on the weak—that is the law of this world. But remember this: even a rabbit will bite when cornered." He then turned and walked away, leaving the 3 bullies stunned on the snow-covered cliff. As he descended the mountain, a strange sensation washed over him. The spiritual energy within his body began to churn, swirling like a vortex. "Could it be..." Lin Feng's eyes widened in realization. He quickly found a secluded spot and sat in meditation. Closing his eyes, he focused inward, guiding the turbulent spiritual energy through his meridians. The energy surged, breaking through barriers that had plagued him for years. A golden light suddenly erupted from his body, illuminating the surrounding snow. When Lin Feng opened his eyes again, they shimmered with newfound power. "The fourth level of Body Refinement... I've finally broken through!" A faint smile touched his lips. Perhaps in this world of cultivation, his assassin skills wouldn't be entirely useless after all.
