Chapter 810 : A Priceless Exchange of Divine Treasures

For a cultivator like Master of Featherflight Pavilion who has cultivated a Primordial Spirit Art [a profound art for nurturing one's spiritual core] body to the Pseudo-Primordial Spirit [a quasi-immortal realm just below the true Primordial Spirit stage] realm, their actual combat prowess is roughly equivalent to that of a single Second Primordial Spirit [a powerful spiritual clone or avatar].

Such a wondrous application is far more profound and powerful than even a single Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure [a treasure imbued with the essence of the primordial sun].

Thinking of this, Eldrin Chen took out two portions of Frost Soul Divine Water [a divine liquid of icy purity that nourishes the soul] and handed them to Dorian Ji, saying, "This Water Vein Ancestral Marrow Jade [a precious jade formed from the condensed essence of ancient water veins] is exceedingly rare, its value far surpassing that of a single Primordial Spirit Pill [a pill that aids in the breakthrough to the Primordial Spirit realm]. I shall supplement the exchange with these two portions of Frost Soul Divine Water."

"Frost Soul Divine Water?"

The moment he laid eyes on the Frost Soul Divine Water, Dorian Ji could not help but pause slightly in surprise.

The value of the Water Vein Ancestral Marrow Jade was not inferior to that of a Primordial Solar Spiritual Treasure, indeed exceeding the worth of an ordinary Sixth Rank Spiritual Object [a high-tier spiritual material] by a significant margin, estimated to be around thirty thousand Heavenly Crystal [a high-grade currency of condensed celestial energy].

This Frost Soul Divine Water could be used in alchemy or as a catalyst for cultivating ice-attribute Primordial Solar Divine Ability [divine arts powered by solar essence], with a value of approximately ten thousand Heavenly Crystal per portion.

Two portions of Frost Soul Divine Water, combined with one Primordial Spirit Pill, roughly matched the value of the Water Vein Ancestral Marrow Jade.

However, Dorian Ji's focus was not on the valuation. The instant he saw the Frost Soul Divine Water, his heart stirred, and he could not resist asking, "Do you have more of this Frost Soul Divine Water in your possession?"

"Hmm?" Find this and other novels at audio-novel .c om.

Eldrin Chen felt a flicker of doubt. Dorian Ji did not possess an Ice Spiritual Root [a spiritual root affinity aligned with the element of ice], nor did the Surging Wave Sword Immortal require such a Spiritual Object [a rare object imbued with spiritual power]. Why, then, was Dorian Ji so visibly stirred upon seeing the Frost Soul Divine Water [a divine water of profound cold, capable of freezing the soul]?

Yet, setting his puzzlement aside, Eldrin Chen spoke, "I obtained a fair amount back at the Heavenly Mountain [a legendary peak shrouded in mystery and spiritual energy], but alas, only three portions remain in my possession now."

With those words, Eldrin Chen handed over the final portion of Frost Soul Divine Water.

Dorian Ji accepted the vial, a smile gracing his lips. "Three portions are somewhat scant, yet they shall suffice."

"In exchange, I offer this Lesser Lunar Divine Water [a divine water infused with the essence of the lesser moon, prized for its purity and restorative properties]. Its worth is comparable to your Frost Soul Divine Water."

So saying, Dorian Ji passed a flask of the Lesser Lunar Divine Water to Eldrin Chen.

This Lesser Lunar Divine Water was itself a rare treasure among Sixth Rank [a high tier of spiritual objects and beings] divine waters. Though it could not rival the legendary 'Supreme Lunar Divine Water [the ultimate divine water of lunar essence]' or the Solar Holy Water [a holy water infused with the pure essence of the sun], it remained an exceedingly precious Primordial Solar [pertaining to the primordial, purest state of yang/solar energy] essence.

It could be used both in alchemy and for cultivating certain Divine Ability [supernatural powers and techniques mastered by high-level cultivators], its efficacy in pill refinement even surpassing that of the Frost Soul Divine Water.

With the exchange concluded, Sage Lord Dorian saw his guests out. "I have pressing matters that require my departure. Should you need anything further, seek out Freya."

"This..."

Watching Dorian Ji depart with such palpable impatience, Eldrin Chen and his companions could not help but exchange looks of bewilderment.

Even Freya Ji seemed somewhat at a loss. She could only speak up, saying, "My father has urgent matters to attend to. If any of you still have something to discuss, you may speak directly with me."

"It is nothing of great import,"

Eldrin Chen replied, then continued, "It is merely that not long ago, Long River Path Lord refined two batches of Primordial Solar Elixir [a supreme-grade pill that greatly enhances the cultivation base of Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators]. If Sage Lord Dorian still has surplus funds, he would do well to purchase one to advance his cultivation."

"Primordial Solar Elixir?"

Upon hearing this, Freya Ji's eyes lit up. Sage Lord Dorian had broken through to the Primordial Spirit Realm [the realm where a cultivator's spirit becomes one with the primordial essence of heaven and earth] over a thousand years ago, and his cultivation had already reached the peak of the Primordial Spirit 2nd Tier.

If he were to consume a Primordial Solar Elixir, he might even have a chance to break through to the Primordial Spirit 3rd Tier before the Demonic Abyss Cataclysm [a prophesied great calamity where demonic forces surge from the abyss]. This prospect made Freya Ji quite attentive to the matter.

However, Primordial Solar Elixirs were treasures one could only encounter by chance, not by seeking. They were often snapped up by various Primordial Spirit Path Lord [powerful cultivators who have reached the Primordial Spirit Realm and mastered a profound cultivation path] shortly after being refined. If one were late, there would likely be none left.

Thinking of this, she nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you for the reminder. I will certainly convey this message."

Considering they also needed to return and refine their own Primordial Solar Elixirs, the group did not linger long at the Dorian Sacred Land. After staying for merely three days, they set off for Ji Continent.

"..."

It is said that Sage Lord Dorian departed from the Great Hall and immediately flew out of the Dorian Sacred Land, heading deep into the Eastern Sea.

Not long after, he arrived before a Glazed Dragon Palace located in the profound depths of the ocean floor.

Sage Lord Dorian hesitated for a moment on the spot, then proceeded towards the dragon palace. Yet, before he had taken more than a few steps, a white dragon's tail swept towards him.

The scales on that tail, belonging to the White Dragon, were as flawless and white as fine jade. An aura of immense, sky-chilling cold swirled around it, instantly freezing the boundless seawater in its path into solid ice.

"Ahem." This chapter appears courtesy of audio - novel . com.

With that single strike, Sage Lord Dorian was sent flying backwards.

After several breaths, Dorian Ji returned, looking rather disheveled and covered in dust. His long and dignified violet-gold Daoist robe was even torn in places, adding to his somewhat bedraggled appearance.

Gazing at the palace ahead and seeing the White Dragon preparing to strike again, he hurriedly spoke out, "My lady, please stop!"

"Who is your lady!"

At that very moment, an elegant white dragon head emerged from within the Dragon Palace. Its gaze was cold and profound as it fixed upon Dorian Ji, but fortunately, it ultimately refrained from taking action.

Seeing that the other party finally held back, Dorian Ji let out a sigh of relief. "A single day as husband and wife brings a hundred days of grace [a saying implying deep bonds formed from shared experience]. Between you and I—"

"BOOM—"

Before Dorian Ji could finish his sentence, a cataclysmic force suddenly surged forth, striking him and sending his entire body hurtling sideways through the air.

By the time he returned, his ceremonial crown had fallen off. Looking rather disheveled, he pleaded, "My lady, please stop! I am, after all, a Primordial Spirit Path Lord [a powerful cultivator whose spirit has reached its primordial, foundational state]. Spare me some face."

"Hmph—"

The Ice Hornless Dragon Demon Ancestor snorted coldly but finally spoke no more. Her voice was icy as she stated, "If you came here merely to seek a beating, then today I may just have to flay a layer of skin from you."

"Not at all, not at all!"

Seeing the Ice Hornless Dragon Demon Ancestor speak thus, Dorian Ji hastily produced a treasure vase. With a smile, he said, "Look what I have brought for you?"

"Frost Soul Divine Water [a divine water of extreme purity and cold, said to nourish the soul and essence]!"

The Ice Hornless Dragon Demon Ancestor [a powerful dragon-type demon ancestor] was momentarily taken aback. As a Pure-Blooded True Dragon [a dragon of the purest lineage], her innate foundation was scarcely inferior to that of the Black Dragon Demon Ancestor [a formidable black dragon ancestor].

Yet, she was an ice-attribute hornless dragon. The environment of the Eastern Sea Cultivation World [the vast cultivation realm of the Eastern Sea] was ill-suited for her cultivation, which was why she had been unable to break through to the Primordial Spirit Late Stage [the advanced stage of spiritual core formation] for so long.

If she could obtain the aid of this Frost Soul Divine Water [a divine water that nourishes and empowers frost-aligned souls], she might gain a significant boost in her chances of achieving that very breakthrough.

Such a precious treasure was something she could not possibly refuse.

Thinking of how this person before her had sought out such a rare item on her behalf, the Ice Hornless Dragon Demon Ancestor felt her stance soften imperceptibly.

Her gaze then fell upon Dorian Ji, who cut a rather disheveled figure, his violet-gold daoist robes and ceremonial crown both tattered and worn. An inexplicable pang of sympathy stirred within her.

"He is, after all, a Path Lord [a master who has comprehended a fundamental law of the world], a figure whose name commands respect across the land. He has his pride. Perhaps I have been too harsh?" she thought to herself.

Despite these thoughts, the Ice Hornless Dragon Demon Ancestor still snorted coldly. "Leave the item. Then get out."

Though her words were dismissive, the Ice Hornless Dragon Demon Ancestor turned and retreated back into her dragon palace.

Dorian Ji glanced up at the palace. Noting that its grand doors did not immediately slam shut behind her, a flicker of relief settled in his heart.

"It is done."

"..."

To return to the main topic, Eldrin Chen and his companions departed from the Path Palace Sacred Land and hurried back to the Myriad Ruins Province.

Upon returning to Spirit Isle Lake, Eldrin Chen found that Star Lord Alkaid had already been waiting for him for quite some time.

Seeing Eldrin Chen, Star Lord Alkaid spoke up, "Brother Eldrin has finally returned. I wonder how you have considered the matter we discussed previously?" Dive deeper into the Dao at audio‑novel.com.
