Chapter 799 : Treasures of the Ancient Immortal

Among the several Pure Yang Spiritual Treasure [a supreme grade of enchanted artifact imbued with pure yang energy], the most precious was naturally the Demon-Suppressing Cauldron. Beyond that, the remaining three treasures were also extraordinary objects.

The Vajra Demon-Breaking Bracelet was a Sixth Rank [the sixth major stage of cultivation] mid-grade Buddhist supreme treasure. The Ancient Lamp named 'Violet Flame Heart Lamp' could release the 'Profound Capital Violet Flame' [a mystical violet flame of profound purity]. Wielding it allowed one to transcend the Heart Demon Tribulation [a trial where one faces their inner demons] and could also incinerate all manner of heavenly evil demons. It also possessed a specific efficacy against all poisons and miasmas, making it a Superior Grade Pure Yang Spiritual Treasure.

The Treasure Seal was named 'Mountain-Moving Seal', its grade also reaching the lofty height of Sixth Rank mid-grade. It was a Pure Yang Spiritual Treasure of immense and formidable power.

After carefully examining them, the group discovered that the lowest grade among these four treasures was Sixth Rank mid-grade. They could not help but each draw a sharp, awed breath.

Maris the Sea Steader's expression was one of shock, and he could not suppress a tone of wonder. "The handiwork of an Immortal [a being who has ascended to immortality] is truly staggering. The treasures left behind actually have none below Sixth Rank mid-grade."

Master of the Drifting Snow Palace's eyes flickered slightly before she nodded in agreement. "For an Ancient Immortals [immortals from ancient times], any Spiritual Object [an object imbued with or containing spiritual power] below Sixth Rank High Grade is likely considered a mere trifle."

"Among these Spiritual Treasure [a general term for enchanted artifacts], aside from the Demon-Suppressing Cauldron, the other treasures were probably left behind casually by the senior. The reason there are no Sixth Rank low-grade Spiritual Object is likely that she did not possess any Spiritual Treasure of such a low grade in her hands."

And indeed, this was the truth. Before Heavenly Mountain Goddess broke through to the Ascension Immortal Realm [the realm of becoming a true immortal], she no longer possessed any low-grade Pure Yang Spiritual Treasure of Sixth Rank low-grade.

After her breakthrough, she left behind her own supreme treasure, the 'Demon-Suppressing Cauldron'. The remaining three Spiritual Treasure were merely incidental additions.

The Mountain-Moving Seal and Vajra Demon-Breaking Bracelet were of no use to an Ancient Immortals. Although the Violet Flame Heart Lamp possessed remarkable and versatile uses, its attributes clashed with Heavenly Mountain Goddess's own Mana [the spiritual energy or life force cultivated by practitioners], so it too was left for later generations.

"These treasures."

As the group gazed upon the several Spiritual Treasure [enchanted artifacts of immense power], expressions of deep longing and desire appeared on their faces.

To an Immortal [a being who has ascended to a higher plane of existence], these artifacts were mere trifles, not even worth the Mana [spiritual energy or magical power] expended to carry them through ascension. Yet for those present, they were priceless treasures, rare and difficult to obtain.

Among the several Spiritual Treasure, the Demon-Suppressing Cauldron was one of the mightiest artifacts in the mortal realm, bordering on the level of an Immortal Treasure [a treasure of celestial grade]. Naturally, the Master of the Drifting Snow Palace would not relinquish it.

Of the remaining three treasures, the Vajra Demon-Breaking Bracelet had already been refined by Maris the Sea Steader and was likely something he was unwilling to part with. That left the Mountain-Moving Seal and the Violet Flame Heart Lamp available for distribution.

The Master of the Drifting Snow Palace cast a glance at the two treasures and spoke directly, "The cultivation arts practiced by our Drifting Snow Palace are incompatible with the Violet Flame Heart Lamp. Fellow Daoist [a respectful term for a fellow cultivator] of the Long River, you may take it."

Riverlord Chang was momentarily taken aback. This time, he had obtained a 'Profound Origin Purple Qi Ginseng' [a mystical ginseng imbued with profound purple vital energy], which could be used to refine a Pill [a spiritual elixir] for breaking through to the Primordial Spirit, Late Stage [the advanced stage of the spiritual core cultivation]. Given a choice between the two, he certainly would not have selected the Violet Flame Heart Lamp.

Understanding his thoughts, the Master of the Drifting Snow Palace stated plainly, "Both the Profound Origin Purple Qi Ginseng and this Violet Flame Heart Lamp can be yours. However, the Wang Clan's Spirit Mountain [a mountain rich in spiritual energy] and all their various assets shall belong to our Drifting Snow Palace."

"So that is the arrangement." Comprehending the Master of the Drifting Snow Palace's intent, Riverlord Chang nodded and said, "Then this old man shall accept without further demur."

Eldrin Chen remained silent at the side. Among those present, the Chen Clan currently held the weakest position, yet they had already secured the greatest benefit.

Moreover, this Immortal Mansion [a celestial abode for powerful cultivators] could only be inherited by Lila in the future. If they sought to obtain more, it would likely provoke the displeasure of the Master of the Drifting Snow Palace [the ruler of a powerful, ice-aligned sect].

Seeing that Riverlord Chang [a powerful cultivator known for his mastery over river-like energies] had taken the Violet Flame Heart Lamp [a mystical lamp containing a core of violet spiritual flame], the Master of the Drifting Snow Palace claimed the Mountain-Moving Seal [a seal imbued with the power to shift mountains]. He then turned his gaze to the five precious specimens of Spirit Medicine [plants infused with potent spiritual energy, used in alchemy].

These five precious herbs were: the 'Profound Origin Purple Qi Ginseng' [a legendary ginseng radiating profound purple vital energy] of Sixth Rank High Grade [a classification denoting extremely high quality and potency]; one Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus [a lotus that blooms in the highest, coldest peaks]; one Nascent Soul Flower [a flower crucial for breakthroughs to the Nascent Soul realm]; and two Pure Yang Fruit [a fruit brimming with unadulterated Yang energy].

Among these treasures, the 'Profound Origin Purple Qi Ginseng' was the most valuable—a treasure believed extinct within the Purple Realm [a specific region or plane of existence]. It could be refined into a Treasure Pill [an exceptionally rare and powerful alchemical pill] capable of aiding a breakthrough to the Primordial Spirit, Late Stage [an advanced stage of spiritual cultivation].

Currently, within the Purple Realm, there existed no Pill [an alchemically refined medicinal pellet] that could assist in breaking through to the Primordial Spirit, Late Stage. If this material could be successfully refined into a Treasure Pill, it would undoubtedly trigger a frenzied bidding war among many Nascent Soul Ancient Ancestor [venerable, millennia-old cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage].

Riverlord Chang naturally would not relinquish it. He immediately collected and carefully stored it away.

Among the remaining treasures, the value of the Nascent Soul Flower was self-evident. The Pure Yang Fruit contained Pure Yang Qi [the pure, untainted essence of Yang energy] and served as the primary ingredient for refining the 'Pure Yang Elixir' [a supreme elixir of pure Yang essence]. That Pure Yang Elixir was a vital cultivation resource for Nascent Soul Dao Lord [a master of the Dao at the Nascent Soul stage].

It was said that if a Nascent Soul Dao Lord consumed one 'Pure Yang Elixir', it could save them Ten Sixty-Year Cycles [a period of six hundred years] of arduous cultivation, illustrating just how precious this item was.

The Master of the Drifting Snow Palace handed both the 'Pure Yang Fruit' and the 'Nascent Soul Flower' to Riverlord Chang and said, "Our Drifting Snow Palace [the name of the ice-aligned sect] alchemical heritage is somewhat lacking. The Alchemy [the art of refining spiritual medicines and pills] of Long River [likely Riverlord Chang's sect or territory] is hailed as the foremost in the Eastern Wastelands [a vast, desolate eastern region]. We entrust these treasures to you for refinement, Fellow Daoist [a respectful term for a fellow cultivator]."

Riverlord Chang nodded and replied, "However, let us wait another century. If this old man can achieve a breakthrough to the Primordial Spirit, Late Stage, then my Pill Success Rate [the likelihood of successfully refining a high-grade pill] for concocting this Pill will be significantly greater."

"That is acceptable as well," Master of the Drifting Snow Palace [the leader of the Drifting Snow Palace sect] nodded slightly, then cast a glance at Eldrin Chen and the others, saying, "Once the Pure Yang Elixir [a supreme-grade pill of pure yang essence] is refined, we shall discuss its distribution based on the final number of pills produced."

"Our Drifting Snow Palace [the Drifting Snow Palace sect] has taken over the Wang Clan's [the Wang family's] assets. The two Nascent Soul Pills [pills that aid in forming the Nascent Soul] that the Wang Clan owed to the Jiang Clan [the Jiang family] shall be repaid to you by us in the future."

"Very well."

Eldrin Chen gave a nod of understanding. He realized the Wang Clan held considerable assets within the Extreme Northern Ice Plains [a vast, frozen northern region], and this was the other party's way of smoothing relations with myself.

Seeing that no one objected, the Master of the Drifting Snow Palace turned her gaze towards the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus [a legendary lotus that grows atop sacred, snow-capped peaks].

This Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus was a Sixth Rank [a classification denoting power level, with Sixth Rank being immensely powerful] low-grade Pure Yang [pertaining to the purest, most potent yang energy] Treasure Lotus [a spiritual plant of great value]. It could be used to forge a Sixth Rank Pure Yang Spiritual Treasure [a powerful magical artifact imbued with pure yang essence], or as a medicinal ingredient to refine a Pure Yang Treasure Pill [a precious pill of pure yang essence].

A certain Nascent Soul Dao Lord [a cultivator who has reached the Nascent Soul realm and comprehended a Great Dao] from the Drifting Snow Palace showed interest in it, but the Master of the Drifting Snow Palace shook her head. She looked at Eldrin Chen and said, "Your Three Veins Immortal Alliance [an alliance of three immortal lineages] contributed significantly to this endeavor. This treasure shall be yours."

"This..."

Eldrin Chen was momentarily taken aback. He had assumed that, having already received the Ancient Immortal Legacy [the inheritance left behind by an ancient immortal], the Master of the Drifting Snow Palace would not allocate any further treasures to them. He had not expected a share of these spoils to still come their way.

Not only did the Master of the Drifting Snow Palace give him the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, she also casually produced a piece of crystalline, translucent Treasure Metal [a rare metal imbued with spiritual properties] and handed it to Lila, saying, "Having obtained this Immortal Inheritance [the legacy of an immortal], you can be considered a successor, albeit across generations, of the Ancient Immortals [the cultivators who ascended to immortality in ancient times]."

"This humble one has also received treasures left behind by the Ancient Immortals [powerful beings who have ascended to a higher plane of existence], and thus owes a debt of gratitude to our predecessors. Consider this piece of Frost Soul Immortal Gold [a legendary metal imbued with the essence of frost and soul energy] a gift to mark our meeting."

Lila hesitated for a mere moment before a smile graced her features. "Then I offer my sincere thanks to the Palace Master," she said.

With matters settled thus, the group had finally divided all the precious treasures contained within the Immortal Mansion [a celestial abode constructed by an immortal].

Beyond these Sixth Rank [a tier of power corresponding to the Nascent Soul stage] treasures, the Immortal Mansion held numerous other artifacts of varying grades. Particularly rich was the Spirit Medicine Garden [a garden cultivated with spiritually potent plants], which contained many precious items, including rare medicinal seeds. Many of these Spirit Medicine [plants imbued with spiritual energy, used in alchemy] seeds were considered extinct within the Purple Realm [a specific region or plane of existence].

Logically, after several hundred thousand years, the Spirit Medicine Garden within the Immortal Mansion should have been overflowing with high-grade medicinal plants boasting ten-thousand-year lifespans.

Unfortunately, due to the prolonged lack of care, most of these precious herbs failed to reach maturity, withering away prematurely. Only a small fraction had managed to advance beyond the Fifth Rank [a tier of power corresponding to the Golden Core stage].

They divided these remaining plants among themselves. Eldrin Chen acquired several immature Sixth Rank herbs, intending to nurture them carefully within his clan's grounds to see if they could be revived.

Once the treasures were apportioned, everyone departed from the Immortal Mansion. Find thousands of chapters at www . audio-novel.com.
