Chapter 1027 : Treasures of the Immortal Convention

As the host of the Barter Convention, Verdant Sparse Immortal offered the customary pleasantries before sweeping his sleeve to reveal several treasures.

With but a single glance, the eyes of the assembled guests narrowed slightly, and many could not help but reveal looks of astonishment.

Verdant Sparse Immortal had presented three items: a piece of crimson blood jade, a gilded treasure vase, and a single Immortal Pill wreathed in cloud-like patterns.

"The Lingering Sun Blood Jade, the Purple Gold Purifying Vase, and the Sky-Piercing Pill," Void-Refining Immortal murmured, his eyes flickering with recognition as he identified the treasures.

Upon hearing the names, Eldrin Chen felt a subtle shift in his brow.

Though he had only ascended to the Immortal Realm a few centuries prior—a mere blink compared to the million-year lifespans of true Immortals—his knowledge was not entirely lacking.

As Void-Refining Immortal named the treasures, Eldrin Chen swiftly recalled their origins.

Among the treasures before them, the Lingering Sun Blood Jade was a unique product of the Lingering Sun Blessed Land, and its origin story was truly remarkable.

Legend held that during the previous Kalpa Tribulation, the Innate Divine Spirit known as Lingering Sun Heavenly God failed his tribulation and perished within the Lingering Sun Sea Region.

His divine essence, infused with the power of the lingering sun, seeped into the seabed over countless ages, eventually crystallizing into these rare and potent blood jade deposits. Find this and other novels at audio-novel dot com.

After the Lingering Sun Heavenly God fell, his physical body transformed into the Lingering Sun Blessed Land [a sacred land imbued with the essence of the setting sun], while his Primordial Spirit [the spiritual core of a cultivator] merged with his Path Principles [the fundamental laws one comprehends on their cultivation journey], becoming the undying Lingering Sun [the perpetual sunset that hangs in the sky of that realm].

His blood, too, seeped deep into the Lingering Sun Ancient Continent, giving rise to a vein of ore of astonishing value.

This ore vein is the Lingering Sun Blood Jade mine. The Lingering Sun Blood Jade [a crimson jade crystallized from divine blood and solar essence] nurtured within holds immeasurable worth, offering significant benefits even to an Earth Immortal Patriarch.

For a Demon Immortal [an immortal who follows a demonic path] or a Divine Spirits [a being born of natural laws and worship], obtaining and refining a single piece can greatly enhance their innate aptitude, increasing their chance of breaking through to the Earth Immortal [the realm of an immortal anchored to the mortal world] by half a tenth.

In the hands of the Human RaceImmortal [a human who has achieved immortality], it can serve as the primary ingredient for refining a Superior Grade Immortal Pill [a top-tier elixir of immortality], or be forged into a High-Grade Immortal Treasure [a powerful enchanted artifact]. Its uses are truly boundless.

Beyond the Lingering Sun Blood Jade, the Purple Gold Purifying Vase is itself a High-Grade Immortal Treasure, while the Sky-Piercing Pill [a pill that aids in piercing through to higher realms] can assist an Immortal in breaking through the Sky-Touching Realm [a specific stage of immortal cultivation], boosting their confidence in reaching the Late Ascendant Immortal Realm [an advanced stage of the immortal realm] by three tenths.

Faced with these three treasures, every Immortal present felt their hearts stir with desire.

"Esteemed colleagues,"

Seeing their evident interest, the Verdant Sparse Immortal [an immortal known for his detached and verdant nature] allowed a faint glimmer to pass through his eyes before speaking with a smile. "The value of these three treasures, I trust, is clear to all."

"To speak plainly, these items are exceptionally rare. Even within my Lingering Sun Blessed Land, they are counted among our most precious possessions."

"Therefore, I have brought it out this time with the intention of exchanging it for two rare and precious treasures."

Upon hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but be momentarily taken aback.

Stroking his long beard, Six Stars Immortal pondered for a moment before speaking. "May I ask, Fellow Daoist, what kind of treasures are you seeking to exchange for?"

"Treasures suitable for forging a Earth Stabilizing Plate [a mystical artifact used to anchor and pacify the earth], Four Extremities Divine Pillars [divine pillars representing the four cardinal directions, used to stabilize a realm], or a World-Stabilizing Bell [a bell of immense power used to steady and protect a newly formed world]."

The assembled Immortals [powerful beings who have transcended mortality] all exchanged looks of astonishment upon hearing this, shaking their heads one after another.

Xander Qian gave a bitter smile and shook his head. "Fellow Daoist, you must be jesting. Treasures of that caliber are of immense value. Even if any of us possessed such items, why would we part with them so readily?"

It turned out that the treasures mentioned by Verdant Sparse Immortal were supreme artifacts used by Earth Immortals [immortals who have opened their own inner world] during their World-Opening [the process of creating and stabilizing one's inner world] to ward off enemies.

For a cultivator at the Ascendant Immortal Perfection [the peak stage of the Ascendant Immortal realm], seeking to advance their cultivation and break through to the Earth Immortal Realm [the realm of an Earth Immortal], besides their own cultivation base and foundational reserves, the most crucial requirement is obtaining three specific World-Opening Treasures [magical treasures essential for the world-opening process].

These three World-Opening Treasures are known as the Heaven-Bearing [Heaven-Bearing], Four Extremities [Four Extremities], and World-Stabilizing [World-Stabilizing] treasures.

The so-called Heaven-Bearing treasure is a supreme artifact that suppresses and balances the earth. The Four Extremities treasure represents the Fourth-Level Celestial Pillar [a celestial pillar of the fourth level, a mythical structure], serving as the key pillar that upholds heaven and earth.

The final World-Stabilizing Treasure [a supreme artifact used to anchor and stabilize a newly formed world] is the object that suppresses the Heavenly Vault [the celestial dome or firmament of a world]. That World-Stabilizing Treasure can draw upon Chaos [the primordial, formless state before creation] Primordial Energy [the fundamental energy of creation] and transform it into spiritual energy [the vital energy used in cultivation] that circulates within the Earth Immortal World [a self-contained world created and sustained by an Earth Immortal cultivator]. It is the crucial linchpin for the Earth Immortal World's very existence.

These three treasures—the Four Extremities [the four cardinal pillars that support the heavens]—are the key to World-Opening [the act of a powerful cultivator creating their own world]. Without the Heaven-Bearing Treasure [the treasure that forms the foundation of the earth], the earth loses its solidity and mass, and the balance between heaven and earth cannot be maintained.

Without the Four Extremities Celestial Pillars [the four divine pillars that hold up the sky], the Heavenly Vault would collapse, and the Earth Immortal World would crumble in an instant.

And if the World-Stabilizing Treasure were missing, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy [the primordial energy of heaven and earth] would be unable to circulate and cycle, eventually turning the world into a lifeless wasteland.

Therefore, for an Earth Immortal [a cultivator who has reached the Earth Immortal realm] to attempt a breakthrough into the Earth Immortal Realm [the cultivation realm of an Earth Immortal], they must gather all three types of World-Opening Treasure [treasures specifically used to create a new world]. Otherwise, even if the World-Opening succeeds, the newly formed world will ultimately collapse back into Chaos.

Thus, these Three World-Opening Treasures are of paramount importance. However, the sheer mass and stability required for an Earth Immortal World far exceeds that of even a Great Thousand World [a vast, complete world]. Ordinary treasures are utterly incapable of serving as World-Opening Treasure. Access the full story on audio-novel dot com.

According to lore passed down within the Immortal Domain [the realm of immortals], among the Three World-Opening Treasures, forging the Fourth-Level Celestial Pillar [a celestial pillar of the fourth rank] requires felling at least four High-Grade Acquired Spiritual Root [a spiritual root of the highest acquired grade].

Yet, how precious are Acquired Spiritual Root [a spiritual root formed after the creation of the world, as opposed to an innate one]? Such treasures are also hailed as Immortal Root [a spiritual root of immortal grade], capable of serving as the foundational heirloom of an Immortal Clan [a clan with immortal lineage]. They are treasures many Immortal [an immortal being] dream of obtaining, let alone a High Grade Immortal Root [an immortal root of the highest grade].

Even for a power like the Lingering Sun Blessed Land [a blessed land associated with the Lingering Sun], an Earth Immortal power, a High Grade Immortal Root within their gates would be an exceedingly rare sight.

Furthermore, the World-Stabilizing Treasure and the Heaven-Bearing Treasure are even more precious. They must at least reach the grade of a top-tier Postnatal Spiritual Treasure [a spiritual treasure forged after the creation of the world] to barely qualify as a World-Opening Treasure.

"The Three World-Opening Treasures [the three foundational treasures required to establish and stabilize a new world or grotto-heaven]."

Eldrin Chen listened quietly to Xander Qian's explanation, and the space between his brows grew increasingly radiant with understanding.

The Heaven and Earth Treasure [a treasure that balances the forces of heaven and earth within a world] which harmonizes the cosmos, the Fourth-Level Celestial Pillar which supports the Four Extremities [the four cardinal directions or pillars of the world], and the World-Stabilizing Treasure [a treasure responsible for the circulation of primordial energy within a world] which governs the cycle of primordial energy.

In all his years of cultivation, this was the first time he had encountered the concept of the Three World-Opening Treasures. It felt as if a path forward had suddenly opened before him, revealing a clear direction for his future advancement.

Seeing his expression, Xander Qian smiled and continued, "There are few treasures capable of serving as a World-Opening Treasure. However, directly purchasing one is considered an inferior method."

"Legend holds that the best approach is to acquire rare and precious materials to elevate one's own Lifebound Immortal Treasure [an immortal treasure bound to a cultivator's life and soul] to the realm of a Supreme-Grade Immortal Treasure."

"By using this Lifebound Immortal Treasure as the foundation for your World-Opening Treasure, and then fusing it with the World-Opening Energy [the primordial energy born at the moment of world creation] generated during your own World-Opening [the act of creating one's own inner world or grotto-heaven] breakthrough, you can advance your Lifebound Immortal Treasure directly into the Earth Immortal Realm."

"This is precisely why an Earth Immortal's treasure is also known as a World-Opening Celestial Immortal Treasure."

"So that is how it is," Eldrin murmured, comprehension dawning.

As he absorbed Xander Qian's words, Eldrin Chen felt a profound clarity wash over him, as if a veil had been lifted. A bright, determined light kindled within his eyes.

When the time comes for his breakthrough to the Earth Immortal [a cultivator who has opened their own inner world] realm, he will use the Positive Water Verdant Lotus Throne and the Bulwark Earth Sovereign Bell to stabilize the earth, while the Celestial Abyss Twin Swords will support the Four Extremities [the four cardinal directions or foundational pillars of a world].

Furthermore, with the Polarity Void Mirror serving as the World-Stabilizing Treasure [a treasure used to anchor and solidify a newly formed inner world], his Earth Immortal World [the inner world created by an Earth Immortal cultivator] will undoubtedly be incomparably stable.

And the World-Opening Treasure [a treasure used to cleave open an inner world], nurtured and elevated by the World-Opening Energy [the primordial energy released during the creation of a world], will converge the power of an entire world within it. Its might will be earth-shattering and utterly terrifying.

"No wonder there are always rumors that a World-Opening Celestial Immortal Treasure [a supreme treasure used by Celestial Immortals to create worlds] possesses the power to effortlessly cleave a Great Thousand World [a vast, complete world within the cosmos] asunder,"

"for behind a World-Opening Celestial Immortal Treasure stands the support of an Earth Immortal World itself—a realm even vaster than a Great Thousand World."

"Every strike from a World-Opening Celestial Immortal Treasure concentrates the power of an entire world. It must possess the dreadful might to shatter continents and extinguish stars."

Eldrin Chen murmured these thoughts to himself, then slowly suppressed the stirrings in his heart.

His gaze turned to Verdant Sparse Immortal on the stage, and he spoke in a low, thoughtful voice, "The Lingering Sun Blessed Land [a sacred land of cultivation] seeks to purchase materials capable of forging a World-Opening Treasure. Could it be they intend to produce another Earth Immortal?" Experience the full epic at audio novel.com.
