Chapter 337. 5 Elements Spirit Fruit (Spiritual Object)

In addition, there were Golden Core cultivators from several surrounding continents, numbering over 30 individuals in total.

Altogether, nearly 1 100 Golden Core cultivators had gathered here—a truly rare sight to behold.

At that very moment, Eldrin's gaze sharpened slightly as he looked toward the 3 individuals radiating the most powerful auras among the crowd.

Yan Zi Ji, who had broken through to the Golden Core stage earlier, possessed extensive familiarity with the surrounding Golden Core cultivators. Thus, she took the initiative to introduce them to the 2.

A faint smile graced her lips as she remarked with a hint of amusement, "Among those present here, the majority are at the Golden Core, Early Stage or Golden Core, Middle Stage. Those who have reached the Golden Core, Late Stage number fewer than 10."

And among these 10 individuals, only 3 were cultivators at the Great Perfection stage of the Golden Core.

Her gaze settled upon 1 of the elegantly dressed middle-aged men as she remarked, "That man is Wei Tianxiong(Person Name), reputed to be the top Golden Core expert in the Wei Kingdom. They say he's a cultivator who has formed a Mid-Grade Golden Core."

"However, having taken 2 fourth-grade Longevity Elixirs in succession, this individual's lifespan has already exceeded a millennium. I'm afraid his hopes of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage are now quite slim."

As she spoke in her gentle and captivating manner, Eldrin gained some understanding of the 3 Golden Core Perfection cultivators.

Aside from Wei Tianxiong, 1 of the 3 present Golden Core Perfection cultivators was also from the Ji Province.

There stood a woman of graceful poise, her legs long and slender as jade, with an ethereal elegance lingering in the curve of her brows.

That person was known as Lingxu (Person Name), the clan leader of the Ling Family in the Cang Kingdom.

She ranks among the top 3 on the Ji Province Fairy Ranking, a peerless beauty who has actually forged a superior-grade Golden Core. There remains a glimmer of hope that she may yet break through the Golden Core realm in the future.

Eldrin couldn't help but glance over, noticing that Ethereal Void Fairy possessed an elegant stature and remarkable grace, her poise and beauty rivaling even that of Violet Banquet Enchantress.

The land of Jizhou boasted many talented and stunning female cultivators. Those with a penchant for gossip had even ranked them, though the rankings were largely determined by their cultivation levels.

After all, as cultivators progress in their practice, the nourishment of pure spiritual power gradually erases physical imperfections, causing 1's appearance and aura to become increasingly flawless.

To a certain extent, beyond innate foundations, different cultivation methods, spiritual roots, supernatural abilities, and magical power all influence a cultivator’s temperament and appearance. Generally speaking, the higher 1’s cultivation realm, the more flawless their physical form becomes.

Thus, ranking this Immortal Beauty List based on cultivation level and Golden Core quality would, for the most part, avoid any major surprises.

However, it was exceedingly rare to find individuals like Eldrin (Person Name) and Lyra (Person Name), whose beauty had already eclipsed all under heaven even before they began their cultivation journey. Such cultivators either never entered the rankings at all, but if they did, they were undoubtedly destined to claim the top spot.

Eldrin couldn't help but feel astonished, exclaiming in admiration, "A supreme-grade Golden Core! To think that in the Ji Province, there actually exists such a prodigy of this caliber."

Upon careful consideration, with the addition of Freya (Person Name), Ji Province now boasted a total of 3 supreme Golden Core cultivators. What struck him as particularly remarkable was that all 3 were peerless celestial maidens.

Lyra gazed calmly at the Ethereal Void Immortal and said with a gentle smile, "The Ethereal Void Immortal must have undergone reincarnation as a True Lord."

"Reincarnated through the heavenly tribulation?"

Eldrin's eyes twitched slightly, a flicker of astonishment flashing through his heart.

Although he had long known that many Nascent Souls would cultivate the Nirvana Reincarnation Art, encountering a being suspected to be a true monarch undergoing reincarnation still left him somewhat astonished.

As Lyra recounted the tale, Eldrin gained a general understanding of the situation concerning the Ethereal Void Fairy.

According to records, 3 100 years ago, the Ling Clan was once a Nascent Soul immortal family. However, during the chaos of the demon beast invasion, their Nascent Soul True Monarch fell in battle, causing the clan to decline from its former glory.

In the blink of an eye, over 3 100 years had passed. To her astonishment, she had cultivated her way back to the ninth level of the Golden Core realm. If she truly was a True Lord undergoing reincarnation tribulation, breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage couldn't be far off.

Withdrawing his gaze, Eldrin turned to the last individual, his expression involuntarily hardening with gravity.

Lady Yan Zi cast a glance, her brows subtly shifting as she remarked, "I have never met this man, yet by his demeanor alone, 1 can roughly discern his origins."

"He must be the number 1 rogue cultivator in the Heavenly Abode Continent (Location)."

Eldrin and Lyra exchanged a glance, their eyes instantly narrowing as a flicker of killing intent surged within their hearts.

But he quickly suppressed the thought. Astrael, the number 1 rogue cultivator in the Heavenly Abode Continent, was a powerful expert who had half a foot already in the Nascent Soul realm.

Though Astrael was born a mere rogue cultivator, having only forged a Mid-Grade Golden Core, his hopes of breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm were by no means insignificant.

Now, at just over 8 100 years of age, he still held some hope of breaking through to the Golden Core.

"I observe that this individual is not far from forming his Nascent Soul."

Lyra's brows furrowed slightly, her eyes flickering with profound gravity.

A Golden Core cultivator may attempt the Nascent Soul breakthrough once every 100 years. Having consumed the Grade-4 Longevity Elixir, Astrael (Person Name) gained an extended lifespan of 1 100 years. If all 3 pills were taken, 1 could obtain a total of 3 100 years.

With this method alone, he still had 2 more opportunities to break through to the Golden Core realm. After all, he possessed a Mid-grade Nascent Soul. If he could obtain a Nascent Soul Formation Pill (Spiritual Object), his chances of achieving a Nascent Soul breakthrough would likely exceed 50 percent.

The chasm between the Golden Core Perfection and the Nascent Soul Realm was as vast as an unbridgeable abyss, exceedingly difficult to traverse.

Lyra gazed at Eldrin, a flicker of concern stirring within her heart.

Eldrin shook his head and calmly transmitted his voice, "It matters not. There are still 4 100 and 50 years remaining—more than enough to slay him."

"Hmm."

No sooner had his words fallen than his eyes narrowed slightly, sensing a wave of killing intent emanating from the side.

Frowning slightly, he turned his gaze and found a man in purple robes staring at him with chilling intensity.

Yan Ziji also sensed something amiss and followed his gaze. Unable to hold back her curiosity, she asked, "That's Deng Tiankun from the Deng Clan of Yan Kingdom (Location). How did you manage to offend him?"

"House Deng." Eldrin exchanged a glance with Lyra before continuing, "Just some minor grudges, that's all."

However, Deng Tiankun furrowed his brow, his gaze tinged with confusion. "I have never met this person before. Why would the Grudge Soulsnatch Curse resonate with me?"

"Wait until..."

"My grandson Yuanwu!"

In an instant, a cold glint flashed in Deng Yuanwu's eyes as a flicker of killing intent crossed his heart.

However, this was, after all, the Ji Continent Trading Post (Location). He swiftly suppressed the thought and buried a surge of killing intent deep within his heart.

While the group was still exchanging thoughts and deliberations, this Grand Barter Assembly finally commenced in earnest.

A Golden Core cultivator from the Ji Clan stepped forward. After sweeping his gaze over the crowd, he produced several treasures for exchange.

Eldrin’s heart quaked uncontrollably at the sight, his pupils contracting sharply.

Yet those 3 treasures were truly extraordinary; the first was a set of 5 spirit fruits, each radiating a distinct hue.

Although it was Eldrin's first time seeing that spiritual fruit, he still recognized its origin—this object was known as the 5 Elements Spirit Fruit (Spiritual Object).

The 5 Elements Spirit Fruit (Spiritual Object) is a precious fruit borne from the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root (Spiritual Root) known as the 5 Elements Spirit Tree. Upon consumption, it aids cultivators in breaking through to the Golden Core realm, with effects no less potent than those of the Golden Core Formation Pill (Spiritual Object).

The Ji Clan, an immortal lineage, relied on a fifth-rank 5 Elements Spirit Fruit (Spiritual Object) tree that bore 9 ripe fruits every 30 years. Over time, this ensured the clan almost never lacked Golden Core cultivators.
