Chapter 783 Obtaining the Wood Origin God Jade

Within the Violet Realm, to guard against any mishaps in the Zhou Tian Star Archipelago, they had consistently dispatched numerous Primordial Spirit Dao Lords to take turns standing watch over the Star Archipelago.

Across the major human domains, discussions would be held to arrange and dispatch selected candidates for garrison duty.

In this matter, the Eastern Sea Cultivation Realm and the Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm bear greater responsibility, requiring the deployment of more Primordial Spirit Dao Lords for garrison duties.

As these 2 regions were closest to the Abyss of Demons, they would bear the brunt should any turmoil arise, making their responsibility unquestionable.

In the past, after Saint Lord Dorian (Person Name) broke through to the Nascent Soul realm, he went to the end of the Demonic Abyss and stood guard there for hundreds of years.

Now that the 3 branches of the Immortal Alliance had successively produced 3 Nascent Soul Dao Lords, Riverlord Chang (Person Name) intended to discuss with them, urging them to select 1 to guard the abyssal end of the Demon Abyss for a period of time.

After understanding the purpose of their visit, Magnus the Virtuous Lord said, "If that is the case, then I shall be the 1 to go and guard it."

"Very well."

Huantian Ji nodded upon hearing this, a faint trace of delight coloring his expression as he remarked, “With the Dao Lord taking charge of guarding the Abyssal Demon Realm, my senior brother may finally have the chance to return to the Eastern Wastelands.”

"My cultivation to this day has only been possible thanks to all you seniors guarding the abyssal depths of the demonic rift. Now that I've achieved some mastery, it is only right that I contribute in return."

Magnus the Virtuous Lord (Person Name) wore a serene expression as he remarked with detached composure.

Eldrin’s eyes flickered slightly. The eldest senior disciple of the Sky-Shattering lineage was none other than the first disciple of the Long River Daoist—Dao Lord Haoyuan.

This man was once the top prodigy of Eastern Wastelands (Location). Having attained the Dao over 3 1000 years ago, he had been guarding the abyssal end of the demonic chasm on behalf of his master ever since. His cultivation had now reached the third level of Nascent Soul.

Now, Daoist Haoyuan needed to focus on breaking through to the Primordial Spirit, Mid Stage (Cultivation Realm), making it truly impractical for him to continue guarding the abyssal end of the demonic chasm.

Seeing that Magnus the Virtuous Lord had agreed, Huantian Ji (Person Name) spoke again with delight, "Since you, Senior, are heading to the abyssal depths of the demon realm to stand guard, we naturally shall not treat you unfairly."

"As long as you guard the Abyssal Demonic Realm until the next cataclysm erupts, the Violet Immortal Alliance will cover the elemental essence consumption for your advancement to the Magnificent Heaven Sword as compensation."

"In that case, I shall accept with humble gratitude."

Magnus the Virtuous Lord (Person Name) nodded. This was a favorable development for him as well.

As the 5 Elements essence was something he urgently needed, and the sixth-order spirit vein of the Star Archipelago could provide the spiritual energy required to consolidate his cultivation.

At this moment, Huantian Ji was also quite pleased. Seeing that his mission was accomplished, he recalled another matter and said.

"I've actually come with another matter, hoping you could lend me a hand, Brother Guixu."

"Oh?" Eldrin's brow twitched slightly as he pondered, then inquired thoughtfully, "Might I ask what matter brings you here?"

Huantian Ji took a deep breath, his expression tinged with both melancholy and anticipation, and said, "The Master is preparing to light the cauldron to refine a batch of Primordial Spirit Pills."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin (Person Name) could not help but slightly narrow his pupils.

Within the Eastern Wastelands (Location), all 3 of humanity's sacred grounds cultivate Soul Flowers. Even top-tier soul sanctums like the Flying Feather Pavilion (Organization) grow Soul Flowers as part of their foundational heritage.

After the Chen family annihilated the Fang clan, they acquired the foundation the Fang family had accumulated over thousands of years. Now, within the spirit herb garden of Guyuan Mountain, 2 Soul Nurturing Flowers (Spiritual Herb) were cultivated.

These 3 Soul Flowers possessed medicinal ages of 3,000 years, and 8,000 years respectively.

It was precisely for this reason that in the Eastern Wastelands (Location), approximately every 1 1000 years, 1 or 2 batches of the incomparably precious Primordial Spirit Pills would be refined.

Within the human race of the Eastern Wastelands (Location), the most accomplished alchemist was none other than Elder Changhe (Person Name). His alchemy had reached the profound level of mid-sixth tier. For thousands of years, nearly all the Soul Nurturing Pills (Elixir) had been refined by Elder Changhe.

Counting the years, it had been 8 100 years since the last refinement of the Nascent Soul Elixir. This renewed endeavor to forge the pill had long been anticipated.

At this thought, Eldrin said, "Since Senior Changhe wishes to refine a Soul Consolidation Pill, is there anything I can assist with?"

"Hmm." Huantian Ji nodded, then continued, "Refining the Soul Elixir requires 30-6 different fifth-rank spirit herbs. We cannot gather all these treasures in a short time."

"We are currently short 7 spiritual herbs. As the alliance leader of the 3 Veins Ancient Domain, I wished to seek your assistance, Brother Guixu (Person Name)."

"Senior Changhe refining the Soul Elixir is a major event for the entire Eastern Wastelands (Location), so naturally, this junior must offer support as well."

After reading the prescription, Eldrin (Person Name) nodded and agreed to the matter without hesitation.

The 3 Veins Ancient Domain was vast and rich in resources, with a full several 100 Nascent Soul clans. Gathering all 30-6 types of fifth-rank spirit herbs simultaneously posed a significant challenge, but acquiring 7 of them was more than sufficient.

In truth, the Eternal River Sanctuary wasn't completely incapable of gathering the required spirit herbs. However, the maturation cycles of certain herbs hadn't yet aligned. Waiting for them would likely waste 1 to 2 100 years—hardly a worthwhile trade.

Soon after, Eldrin obtained all 7 spiritual herbs through the 3 Veins Immortal Alliance's channels. Delivering them to Huantian Ji, he smiled and said:

"I hereby extend my sincerest wishes for Tianji to successfully summon the Heavenly Soul and ascend to the rank of Primordial Spirit Dao Lord."

"Hahaha, I'll gladly take those auspicious words."

Huantian Ji let out a hearty laugh, a flicker of exhilaration gleaming between his brows.

This time, whether Riverlord Chang succeeded in refining a few or several Soul Elixirs, it was foreseeable that 1 would ultimately fall into his hands.

Now, Huantian Ji had lived for over 4,800 years, and his cultivation had remained stagnant at the Half-Step Primordial Spirit (Cultivation Realm) for more than 8 centuries.

He consumed 3 Life-Extending Pills, and now was the peak of his vitality—the perfect moment to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

If this opportunity is missed, once past the age of 5 1000, breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm will likely become far more difficult.

The next time the Eastern Barrens refine a Soul Elixir, it will likely take nearly a 1000 years. By then, Huantian Ji’s vitality will have nearly depleted, drastically reducing his chances of a breakthrough.

At that point, his situation would become extremely awkward—either gamble with his final life-extension opportunity or be forced to undergo a Soul Transmigration Tribulation.

However, if he were to undergo a soul transmigration, the loss of that innate breath's nurturing would make his chances of a breakthrough even more remote.

Without undergoing the tribulation transcendence and relying solely on life-extending spiritual artifacts, 1 can only gain an additional 1 1000 years of lifespan. Once failure occurs, all previous efforts would be utterly wasted.

Thus, if he failed to breakthrough this time as well, the likelihood of Huantian Ji advancing to the Nascent Soul realm in the future would be drastically diminished.

Just like the former Heavenly Mystery Sect Master, who attempted to breach the Nascent Soul realm 7 or 8 times in his later years. He exhausted the sect’s accumulated resources, yet never succeeded, indirectly leading to the downfall of the Heavenly Mystery Sect.

After all, given the profound foundation of the Heavenly Profound Sect back then, they were fully capable of nurturing another Half-Step Primordial Spirit (Cultivation Realm).

Getting back to the main story, having obtained all these spiritual treasures, Huantian Ji now possessed sufficient materials to begin alchemy refinement for the Soul-Refining Elixir. Unable to contain his exhilaration, he exclaimed with overflowing joy:

"I heard you've been seeking the Wood Source Divine Jade these past years, so I specifically brought you 1. Consider it payment for these spirit herbs."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin (Person Name) brightened up, took the Wood Source Divine Jade (Magic Treasure), and said, "You are most considerate, fellow Daoist."

After seeing off Huantian Ji, Eldrin immediately returned to Spirit Isle Lake, and life returned to its former tranquility.
