Chapter 903 : A Sacred Pool and a Supreme Pill

At this thought, Violet Consort Yan could not help but ask, "What do you plan to do next?"

"I intend to use the time spent consolidating my cultivation to advance my alchemy skills," he replied. "I will also refine several batches of the Primordial Solar Great Void Pill [a supreme-grade pill that aids in breaking through to the Mid Primordial Spirit Realm] to help you both achieve a breakthrough into the Primordial Spirit Mid Stage sooner."

That Primordial Solar Great Void Pill is exceptionally rare and precious. It is a pill that assists cultivators in breaking through to the Primordial Spirit Mid Stage. Its primary ingredient is the Void Profound Jade [a rare jade that contains traces of void energy], and it must be refined in conjunction with the Primordial Solar Fruit [a fruit imbued with pure yang energy] to succeed.

Both the Void Profound Jade and the Primordial Solar Fruit are exceedingly precious. However, once successfully refined, the pill can increase a cultivator's chances of breaking through to the Primordial Spirit Mid Stage by thirty percent. It can be considered one of the most supreme Supreme Precious Pill [a classification for the rarest and most potent pills] in the world.

Upon hearing this, Nyssa Qu nodded thoughtfully. Then she spoke again, "By the way, over the past two centuries, the Water Vein [a subterranean channel of concentrated spiritual water energy] within the Vast Sea ruins has successfully advanced in grade."

"It has given birth to a Solar Sacred Pool [a sacred pool imbued with the essence of the sun]. I think you should go and see it."

"Truly?"

Eldrin Chen's face lit up with joy at these words. He immediately rose to his feet and said, "Let's go. We should take a look right away."

It was no wonder Eldrin Chen was so excited. The Solar Sacred Pool is a rarity under heaven, the highest-grade treasure that a Water Vein in this world can possibly nurture.

This Solar Sacred Pool converges the solar power of heaven and earth. It is born from a Primordial Solar [a cultivation realm associated with the purest yang energy] Water Vein, and stands alongside the Supreme Lunar Immortal Pool [a sacred pool imbued with the essence of the moon] as the twin pinnacles of Polarity [the complementary forces of yin and yang] Immortal Vein [a vein of spiritual energy of immortal grade]. Published by www . audio-novel.com. All rights reserved.

The Solar Divine Water [a sacred water imbued with the pure essence of the sun] nurtured within it is a supreme treasure of the Sixth Rank Superior Grade. It can not only be used to cultivate the Primordial Solar Divine Ability [a supreme solar-based mystical art] at the Great Perfection Realm, but is also a crucial ingredient for alchemy.

Legend has it that the Purple Seal Realm's foremost healing treasure, the 'Polarity Immortal Water' [a miraculous water that harmonizes opposing forces], is refined by combining the Solar Holy Water with the Supreme Lunar Divine Water [a sacred water imbued with the pure essence of the moon].

With such a vital treasure reappearing in the world, it was no wonder Eldrin Chen immediately rose to his feet. He could not linger in tender moments and promptly returned to the Eastern Region Great Wasteland.

Upon their arrival at the Eastern Region Great Wasteland, they immediately descended into the Water Vein [a subterranean channel of concentrated spiritual water energy] within the Vast Sea.

Only when they reached a resplendent divine pool did a smile finally touch Eldrin Chen's lips.

There, at the very source of the Water Vein within the Vast Sea, a pool of dazzling golden water shimmered with an inner light, brimming with a power of utmost purity and yang [the active, masculine principle of the cosmos] essence.

"Solar Holy Water,"

Eldrin Chen murmured, gazing at the pool before him, his eyes alight with profound joy.

With this Primordial Solar [pertaining to the primordial, foundational power of the sun] water reappearing in the Purple Seal Realm, and combined with the Supreme Lunar Divine Water from the Ethereal Mist Palace, the Polarity Immortal Water could finally be reborn into the world.

This thought filled his heart with both delight and regret. He sighed, a note of helplessness in his voice. "If only this Solar Holy Water had emerged earlier, and the Polarity Immortal Water had been refined... perhaps Master of the Horizon Pavilion would not have had to die."

Upon hearing this, Lila felt a slight heaviness in her heart, yet she offered words of comfort: "In the past, the Black Dragon suppressed the Water Essence Power of the Vast and Misty Marsh, which slowed the advancement of the Water Vein [a subterranean spiritual energy channel associated with water] within the Vast Sea."

"Later, the Master of the Horizon Pavilion perished by the Black Dragon's hand, and you were the one who ultimately slew the beast. Perhaps this was simply fate's design."

"Alas."

Eldrin Chen sighed, unwilling to dwell on these thoughts any longer.

He examined the Water Vein of the Vast Sea once more, his brow furrowing in puzzlement. "Logically," he mused, "a Solar Sacred Pool [a rare pool of water imbued with potent solar energy] is an exceedingly rare phenomenon, typically only birthed from a Water Vein of Sixth Rank Superior Grade."

"Yet this Vast Sea possesses only a Sixth Rank Low-Grade Water Vein. How could it possibly give rise to a Solar Sacred Pool?"

Witnessing his confusion, Exquisite Jiang also frowned in thought. After a long silence, she spoke up suddenly. "Perhaps this vast Water Vein has been influenced by some form of Primordial Solar [pertaining to the pure, ancient power of the sun] energy."

"Oh?"

Eldrin Chen was mildly taken aback and couldn't help but ask, "What leads you to that conclusion, my lady?"

"It is rather peculiar," Exquisite Jiang began calmly, recounting her observations. "In recent years, within several of the nearby great continents, the number of Underground Fire Vein [subterranean spiritual energy channels associated with fire] has been steadily increasing."

"Old Granduncle also informed me that the power of the Fire Vein within the Flaming Prison Sea of Fire is surging with incredible speed, seemingly on the verge of reaching the Sixth Rank Mid-Grade level."

"Is that truly the case?"

Eldrin Chen's eyes narrowed. He rose to his feet and soared into the Heavenly Vault [the sky], beginning to observe the flow of the mountain ranges' Earth Vein [dragon lines of terrestrial energy].

He ascended to a height of several million Li-lengths [one Li-length equals five hundred meters] within the Heavenly Vault, continuously studying the Earth Vein patterns of the Eastern Region Great Wasteland. After a period of intense calculation and deduction, his brow furrowed with concern.

Seeing this, Exquisite Jiang could not help but ask, "What is the situation?"

"The heavens and earth are shifting, the very crust is in motion. A change has occurred within the Fire Vein of the Purple Seal Realm." This chapter is part of a larger work available at audio-novel-dot-com.

Eldrin Chen took a deep breath, then gazed towards the direction of the Flaming Prison Sea of Fire and declared, "A calamity has befallen the Underground Fire Vein deep beneath the Flaming Prison Sea of Fire."

"It was pierced millennia ago by Imperial Sovereign Jiang. Now, through a twist of fate, it has formed the legendary Mantle Plume [a superheated upwelling from the planet's mantle]. Should it erupt in full, the entire Three Veins Ancient Domain will likely be transformed into a land of molten rock."

"How could this be?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present was struck with horror. A Mantle Plume was a veritable supervolcano.

Once it erupts, it would be a cataclysmic event of near-extinction level for the entire Purple Seal Realm. When that time comes, cultivators below the Golden Core realm within the Eastern Region Great Wasteland would likely find it impossible to survive.

However, Eldrin Chen felt a mixture of shock and elation in his heart. While this Mantle Plume [a superheated upwelling from the planet's mantle] was indeed a world-shaking, cataclysmic disaster, the methods of the Immortal Realm were far beyond those of mortals. It was not something utterly impossible to halt.

After a period of deduction, he said to Exquisite Jiang, "Although this Mantle Plume is terrifying, if it can be properly regulated, it might transform into an unprecedented Underground Fire Vein [a subterranean channel of concentrated fire-attribute spiritual energy]."

"Moreover, the treasures contained within would likely be rare treasures seldom seen in this world. After all, no one knows what priceless materials have accumulated over hundreds of millions of years of sedimentation within the crust of the Purple Seal Realm."

"Furthermore, if this Mantle Plume can be successfully regulated, it might even give birth to a supreme Ancestral Vein [the highest grade of spiritual energy ley line] of Near-Immortal Rank quality for the Purple Seal Realm."

Upon hearing this, Exquisite Jiang and the others could not help but reveal expressions mingling shock and delight.

The situation was indeed as Eldrin Chen had stated. For the cultivators of the Purple Seal Realm, this Mantle Plume was both a calamity and an opportunity of unprecedented rarity.

After all, it was under the nurturing influence of such a Mantle Plume that the supreme treasure known as the Solar Sacred Pool [a legendary pool of concentrated solar essence] had been born.

Thinking of this, Verdant Consort could not resist asking, "In your view, husband, what methods do we have to properly regulate this Mantle Plume?"

"Drain the Fire Vein [a ley line of fire-attribute energy], restrain it with a Water Vein [a ley line or concentrated source of water-attribute spiritual energy]. A two-pronged approach might prove feasible."

Eldrin Chen declared decisively, then projected a topographic map and said, "Have Old Granduncle continuously divert the Flaming Prison Sea of Fire [a vast, perpetually burning sea of magma], channeling the majority of the Fire Elemental Power [the concentrated essence of fire] from the Mantle Plume [a deep-earth upwelling of immense heat and magma] to converge here."

"The Fire Elemental Power gathered here can be used to aid Old Granduncle in his cultivation, to elevate the Fire Vein [a subterranean channel of concentrated fire energy] of the Flaming Prison Sea of Fire, and also to advance the Blazing Third Fire Immortal Apricot Tree [a legendary spiritual tree bearing fruit of immense fire-aligned power]."

"Once the Fire Phoenix Egg [a mythical egg containing the essence of a fire phoenix] hatches into a Solar Fire Vermilion Bird [a divine beast of pure solar flame], it will also absorb the earth-fire energy, helping to alleviate the pressure of the impending eruption."

"Furthermore, we will carve out numerous cultivation caves within the Flaming Prison Sea of Fire and rent them out to low and mid-tier cultivators of the Purple Seal Realm [a major cultivation realm] for alchemy and artifact forging, thereby consuming the power of the Fire Vein."

"By implementing all these measures simultaneously, we can deplete a large portion of the power accumulated in the Earth Vein [the foundational spiritual energy channel of the land]."

At this point, Eldrin Chen turned his gaze towards the Vast Sea and said, "Then, we will divert the waters of the Vast and Misty Marsh [a great wetland] to flood the Vast Sea, transforming it into the foremost Spiritual Lake [a lake imbued with potent spiritual energy] within the Purple Seal Realm."

"Utilizing the Water Essence Power [the fundamental power of water] to suppress the earth-fire will also mitigate part of the danger posed by the Mantle Plume's eruption."

"An excellent strategy."

Upon hearing this, the others clapped in approval. Nyssa Qu said with delight, "After assimilating the Water Vein [the subterranean channel of concentrated water energy] of the Vast and Misty Marsh, the Water Essence Power of the Vast Sea will ascend to the Sixth Rank Superior Grade [a high tier within the cultivation ranking system]."

"By that time, the yield of Solar Holy Water [a sacred water infused with solar essence] will multiply severalfold, and the Primordial Solar [pertaining to the purest, most ancient yang/sun energy] treasures it nurtures will also increase substantially." Read, share, and discuss at audio–novel.com.
