Chapter 1200 Superior Way of Heaven Opening

Hearing this, Eldrin’s eyes flickered slightly, and he couldn’t help but ask, “At the dawn of creation, when the boundless aura of chaos pervaded the world, even immortals could not endure it for long. How could the Post-Heavenly Spiritual Root possibly be nurtured under such conditions?”

Yet how could a living spiritual root, not yet refined through esoteric arts, bear the weight of heaven and earth’s 4 poles?

"Without a secret technique to nurture the spiritual root, it naturally cannot be planted."

Canglan Elder spoke calmly, and after a moment, said, "I possess a supreme method that can nurture a Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), enabling it to uphold the heavens through this supreme art."

"Those of you with the heart to seek enlightenment may take this and study it."

As the words faded, Elder Canglan scattered hundreds of luminous glimmers that descended like rain into the hands of the assembled immortals.

Eldrin took the glowing message and examined it, his brow furrowing deeply. His heart swelled with both astonishment and delight.

To plant a Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) at the dawn of creation and use it to uphold the vault of heaven was, in itself, an exceedingly arduous endeavor.

The Supreme Post-Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) is incomparably precious, its value being at least 10 times that of supreme immortal treasures, rivaling even Heaven-Splitting Treasures. Every single 1 is considered a peerless treasure beyond measure.

Even among the esteemed Earth Immortal Elders present, it was uncertain whether any could possess even 1 or 2 stalks of top-grade Post-Celestial Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root).

If they were to obtain a single stalk of a supreme-grade Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), they would treat it as the foundational treasure of their blessed sanctuary, a legacy to safeguard their sect for generations.

Many Earth Immortal blessed realms would pool the strength of their entire sect and spend tens of millions of years cultivating, yet often they could only produce 1 or 2 Post-Heaven Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root) of this caliber.

However, to open the heavens using the Middle Method or the Supreme Method required a full 4 top-grade Post-Heavenly Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root). The difficulty of this was simply immense.

Eldrin estimated that among the 2 100-some Earth Immortal blessed lands across the entire Western Qi Divine Abyss Sea, no more than 30 to 40 percent could simultaneously produce 4 supreme-grade Post-Heavenly Spiritual Roots.

"Difficult, difficult, difficult."

"To open the heavens through the Middle Method or the Upper Method, 1 must either possess substantial financial backing or encounter a heaven-defying opportunity."

Eldrin (Person Name) murmured inwardly, yet with a trace of confidence.

Even for a Terrestrial Immortal Patriarch, a top-grade Post-Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) was a treasure that could be chanced upon but never sought. Yet, with the Primordial Purple Qi (Primordial Qi) flowing through his veins, all he needed was sufficient time—and he could procure as many top-grade Post-Heavenly Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root) as he desired.

His heart swelled with joy, yet a trace of solemnity lingered within.

The method imparted by Elder Canglan was known as the 'Immortal Origin Root-Nurturing Art'. Employing this technique to cultivate a Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) was an exceedingly intricate process.

To cultivate the Art of Nurturing the Origin Root, an immortal must gather the corresponding supreme origin qi and fuse it into the supreme Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), thereby amplifying its latent vitality.

Once more depleting immortal essence, he tirelessly channeled the secret art day and night to nurture his spiritual roots. Without harming them, he repeatedly tempered the roots until they possessed the resilience to prop up the heavens, thus qualifying as the Pillar of Heaven Tree.

Yet this alone was not enough. To prevent the World-Sustaining Tree from breaking, 1 must seek out the Life Source Liquid after the Heaven-Splitting succeeds, using it to restore its damaged vitality.

Primordial Qi, secret techniques for nurturing, Life Source Liquid.

Gazing at the 3 required items listed in the secret technique, Eldrin could not help but shake his head with a bitter smile.

Among the methods in this Origin-Nurturing Art, the Secret Art of Gentle Nourishment is considered the simplest, yet it drastically depletes the caster's Immortal Essence.

According to the secret method, nurturing each supreme-grade Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) would consume 100,000 years of cultivation from an ordinary half-step Earth Immortal.

Fortunately, for cultivators at the Half-Step Earth Immortal realm, their cultivation base had long reached an impasse where no further progress was possible. Wasting a portion of immortal essence would have no real impact, as it could always be regained through renewed cultivation.

Moreover, there were some miraculous elixirs that could help immortals swiftly restore their cultivation. Hence, this aspect was not particularly difficult.

Yet the remaining Primordial Qi and that Life Source Liquid were far from ordinary celestial treasures.

Primordial Qi refers to the fundamental force that converges within the mortal realm, born from the myriad laws of heaven and earth.

The stellar essence that Eldrin (Person Name) had obtained in the past could only be nurtured by celestial-grade stars, just as the Li Fire essence qi could only be conceived within celestial-grade fire veins.

All other forms of primordial essence can only be conceived within specific environments.

This Art of Nurturing Roots with Immortal Origin not only required origin qi to cultivate spiritual roots, but demanded premium-grade origin qi—specifically, origin qi that aligned with the elemental attribute of 1's spiritual roots. Such a requirement made it exceedingly rare.

Today, the Chen Immortal Clan (Organization) dominates the Crimson Dragon Sea, occupying vast stretches of immortal islands and resources, yet possesses only 7 immortal-grade earth veins—some large, some small.

Among these 7 immortal-grade earth veins, most were merely of low to medium grade. Only the fire vein of Crimson Dragon Island was a top-grade immortal earth vein, yet even it could not give birth to supreme-grade primordial qi.

Only an existence like the Can Yan Blessed Land could produce the Essence of the Waning Sun in minuscule quantities, a testament to the rarity of such a treasure.

This supreme-grade primordial energy has even evolved a trace of the power of rules within it. It can be used to elevate supreme-grade life-bound immortal treasures or be refined to enhance 1's own foundational reserves.

Although its value was far inferior to that of a top-grade Post-Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), it remained an exceptionally rare and precious immortal treasure, often commanding a price no less than that of a supreme-grade immortal artifact.

The final drop of Life Source Liquid was also remarkably extraordinary, capable of restoring the vitality of a Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) and immortal herbs. It was typically used to rejuvenate damaged immortal herbs and spiritual roots.

This object could only be produced by the Ancient Tree of Life, which was a Post-Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root). The amount of Life Source Liquid it yielded was not particularly rare.

However, to restore a top-grade Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root), the ordinary Life Source Liquid produced by common Ancient Trees of Life would certainly be insufficient. It required, at the very least, an Ancient Tree of Life of the top-grade Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) level.

A Life Ancient Tree of this grade is truly extraordinary. The Life Source Liquid it produces can restore supreme-grade immortal herbs and even aid Earth Immortal Elders in healing their wounds. Therefore, its value increases exponentially.

At this thought, Eldrin couldn't help but sigh, "A single portion of supreme-grade Life Source Liquid holds value equivalent to half a supreme-grade immortal treasure."

"It seems my path to opening the heavens through superior techniques remains long and arduous."

Eldrin sighed inwardly, yet moments later, he shook his head with a self-deprecating chuckle.

Although the supreme-grade Life Source Liquid and Primordial Qi were precious, their combined value barely amounted to 1-tenth or at most 1-fifth of a supreme-grade Post-Heavenly Spiritual Root.

Any half-step Earth Immortal who has cultivated 3 types of World-creation Foundations would possess combat prowess at least comparable to that of an 8-Calamity, or even a 9-Calamity Immortal.

Such an existence possesses earth-shattering power, capable of suppressing and slaying early-stage Earth Immortal Patriarchs, with the ability to open up 6 or more layers of heaven and earth.

To them, although the supreme-grade Life Source Liquid and Source Qi were precious, they were by no means impossible to find.

What could truly challenge them was perhaps acquiring just 4 top-grade Heavenly Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root).

Being able to cultivate a top-grade Heavenly Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) myself has resolved the greatest challenge. What significance could the remaining obstacles possibly hold?

"It is time to make some plans and gather more post-Heavenly Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root)."

With this thought in mind, Eldrin set aside his musings, resolving to diligently search for more Heavenly Spiritual Roots in the future—laying early groundwork for his world-shattering endeavor.
