“Oh yes, there are also the storage bags of those four Foundation Establishment cultivators.”
At this moment, Zhou Sui also took out four or five storage bags from his possession, one of which belonged to a cultivator in the Qi Cultivation Stage, but it was essentially insignificant.
He swept his divine sense lightly across them, simultaneously using the Heart-eye Recognition. Instantly, a massive amount of information flowed into the depths of his sea of consciousness.
Information on spiritual stones, spiritual medicines, magic artifacts, spiritual energy, pills, and many other treasures were all presented before his eyes.
“They really are a group of poor devils.”
Zhou Sui blinked his eyes, quite speechless.
He had initially thought that he could find some unique treasures, but it turned
out to be nothing more than common resources.
Nothing really caught his Dharma Eye.
However, even so, the treasures in these five storage bags combined were
worth forty thousand middle-grade spiritual stones.
This was actually quite a considerable fortune for a Foundation Establishment
Cultinator.
Forty thousand middle-grade spiritual stones could be used to buy a mass of second-stage pills, which could quickly enhance the cultivation of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Moreover, there was also the addition of the Airless Grass, which was worth ten thousand middle-grade spiritual stones.
in total, he had earned fifty thousand middle-grade spiritual stones, which
could be considered a windfall.
“Never mind, I should continue cultivating and enhance my mana.”
Zhou Sui put these storage bags aside and sat cross-legged on the ground. He took out a bottle of Ether Wood Pill and immediately swallowed one.
Rushing sound-
He operated the Insect God Sutra to quickly refine this Ether Wood Pill, which then transformed into a massive amount of energy.
The energy of the Ether Wood Pill was incredibly gentle, flowing through each of his meridians, continuously strengthening his body.
At this moment, the mana in his body was increasing bit by bit.
“It’S too slow.”
Zhou Sui sighed inwardly. Even with the aid of the second-stage Ether Wood Pill, he still needed at least a month to condense one drop of mana liquid. Thus, one can imagine how slow the process of condensing mana was.
If there were no second-stage pills to assist him, he would probably need half a year to condense a drop of mana liquid.
According to his current cultivation speed, he would likely need hundreds of years, dedicated to bitter cultivation, to make the progress necessary to reach the complete Foundation Establishment stage.
It should be noted that his spiritual root had reached the sixth-stage level, equivalent to a mid-grade spiritual root.
Yet, it was still slow, like a snail.
If a regular sixth-stage spiritual root Foundation Establishment cultivator, he would probably never advance to the complete Foundation Establishment stage or form a core, even if he exhausted his lifespan.
Most likely, he would remain in the early stage of Foundation Establishment for the rest of his life.
“The higher the realm, the more important the cultivation aptitude becomes.” -A lower-grade spiritual root, with some stroke of luck, can also become a Foundation Establishment cultivator.”
“But, dreaming of becoming a Golden Core Master is just wishful thinking.”
“The mere speed of condensing mana liquid is enough to cause despair in cultivators with lower and mid-grade spiritual roots.
“Only cultivators with an upper-grade spiritual root can hope to reach the complete Foundation Establishment stage before their 200th birthday.”
“This way, they have a chance to advance to the Golden Core.”
Zhou Sui’s eyes flickered. He recognized the importance of one’s spiritual root aptitude.
Especially when cultivating the Foundation Establishment, let alone the Golden Core, a year’s worth of cultivation for mid-grade spiritual root cultivators is equivalent to just a month for those with an upper-grade spiritual root. The difference in efficiency is staggering.
Over time, the gap becomes even larger.
Fortunately, he had the help of the Obsession Gu and the assistance of his Dao companions.
It won’t be long before his Spiritual Root Aptitude improves further.
Once his spiritual Root is promoted to the fifth-grade, his cultivation
efficiency will certainly see a huge increase.
Thinking of this, Zhou Sui disregarded such matters and continued to cultivate assiduously, digesting the medicinal power of the Ether Wood Pill.
Meanwhile, numerous Foundation Establishment elders of the Immortal Mist
Sect had gathered together.
They too had heard the shocking news of Zhou Sui being ambushed by a Foundation Establishment elder of the Ghost Demon Sect.
-Who would have thought that Sect Master Luo Hua of the Ghost Demon Sect would have such a strong desire for revenge, he even sent four of his own Foundation Establishment elders to personally deal with our Sect Master’s companion. What a grand move.”
“Unfortunately, the Sect Master of the Ghost Demon Sect underestimated the affection our Sect Master has for that pretty boy. He even gave him a third-stage talisman. He truly couldn’t bear to see that pretty boy die.” “All we can say is, that kid has indeed earned the favor of our Sect Master. He’s really a lucky guy. If it weren’t for the Sect Master’s help, this kid would probably never be able to establish a foundation in this lifetime.” “However, now that the Ghost Demon Sect has lost four Foundation Establishment elders, their strength has significantly reduced, this indeed is a great opportunity for us. One we can seize to take over a lot of their markets and mines and make a huge profit.
“Honestly though, this really is a trivial matter. The more pressing issue is the sudden appearance of that Nascent Soul Cave Mansion. That’s what truly matters for our Dao journey.”
Several Immortal Mist Sect Foundation Establishment elders were abuzz with discussions.
The main reason for their gathering this time was not Zhou Sui, but the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion that had suddenly appeared within Immortal Mist Sect territory.
The appearance of this Nascent Soul Cave Mansion has attracted the attention of many Golden Core powers immediately.
“Tsk tsk, this Nascent Soul Cave Mansion once belonged to the renowned Blood Shadow Ancestor from three thousand years ago. It’s said he slaughtered many powers of that era and plundered a great number of treasures.”
“No one knows how many secrets lie within.
“There might even be some Core Formation and possibly Nascent Soul
artifacts.”
Master Xue Qiyang of the Reward and Punishment Hall murmured. “Impossible right? Isn’t that a bit too exaggerated? If there really are Nascent Soul Artifacts, even Nascent Soul powers will likely be attracted. Can we, the Immortal Mist Sect, even withstand that?”
Peak Master Ma Qianjun of Pill Medicine Peak voiced his worries.
He felt that this sudden appearance of the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion might not necessarily be a good thing, but rather, could bring about a massive calamity for the Immortal Mist Sect.
After all, this kind of chance is really too hot to handle.
It’s not something the current Immortal Mist Sect can grasp.
If there are indeed Nascent Soul artifacts in that cave mansion, the Nascent Soul powers from outside the island will surely swarm in.
With the strength of the Immortal Mist Sect, we could never resist that.
One careless move could result in the annihilation of the sect.
“It’s just a suspicion, it might not be accurate.
“Moreover, it’s been three thousand years since then, if there aren’t any proper preservation methods, even Nascent Soul artifacts would have been eroded by the wind by now. They wouldn’t still be around, you don’t need to be so overly worried.”
Master Chang Lei of Golden Talisman Peak said somberly.
He didn’t think there could be any Nascent Soul artifacts in that cave mansion. Because even for a Nascent Soul Ancestor, finding a Nascent Soul artifact is not that simple, they can be considered artifacts of immense value. Not even the Blood Shadow Ancestor of the past could necessarily get one.”
-Even if there are no Nascent Soul artifacts, there could still be Core Formation artifacts.”
“After all, this is the cave mansion of a Nascent Soul Ancestor, who knows what kind of treasures are inside.”
“Regardless, we absolutely can’t miss this Nascent Soul Cave Mansion, this could be the chance of a lifetime.”
“A hundred years is too long, seize every minute.
Master Xue Qiyang of the Reward and Punishment Hall clenched his fists, he wouldn’t miss this chance no matter what..
