Chapter 495 Yanling Myriad Treasures Secret Realm
Compared to the situation more than two hundred years ago, Spider Mountain has hardly changed, but the number of people stationed there has decreased significantly. Nowadays, there are almost no cultivators left in the entire Red Kite cultivation world.
They all flocked to Taihu Lake. Even if they didn't join the front lines, they could still reap many benefits in the territory attacked by the demonic forces. The casualties from the frontal assault were not as great as imagined.
This group of demonic cultivators who were swept away after the war were the real source of disaster. They had no bottom line or morality and dealt a heavy blow to the people of Taihu Lake.
It swept through like a sieve, causing countless casualties.
The meeting place he and Yan Ling agreed to meet was Spider Mountain.
Upon arrival, Wang Yu did not find it immediately, but only the divine imprint left by the other party in the spider cave. Once triggered, Yan Ling's true form would become aware of it.
This is how we waited for a month.
A streak of blue light, filled with frost, suddenly descended into Spider Mountain. The person wearing the trailing dress with birds and flowers was draped in the air, with her long black hair flowing down and a silver-patterned cicada-shaped headdress on her head.
Two pieces of icy green jade hung from her waist, and a white jade ribbon embroidered with frost flowers lightly bound her slender waist. Her pert buttocks swayed from side to side with her steps, which was very eye-catching.
Her bright, clear eyes were pure and clean, devoid of any color. Compared to her previous icy beauty, she now possessed a unique feminine charm.
Her figure also seems to have grown slightly.
Wang Yu stood on the edge of the cliff, looking over with a smile.
"good.
"At the second level of the Nascent Soul stage, and about to break through, it seems that the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect has gained quite a bit from attacking Taihu Lake over the years. How have you been, Fellow Daoist Yan Ling?"
For some reason, I was surprised to hear Wang Yu say those words.
Yan Ling suddenly felt her eyes sting. Time is the most terrible enemy of living beings, but memories of the past are also the best place to entrust one's emotions.
Looking back on the past.
It is an essential part of the experience after achieving success and fame.
The thousand words in my heart eventually came out as just two light, fleeting words.
"……fine."
Their generation of direct disciples, apart from Xie Xie'an who has disappeared without a trace, also benefited from good timing, as the continuous victories in the war between the righteous and the demonic forces brought the sect too many resources.
With the help of their families, they broke through to the Nascent Soul stage one after another. Except for the disciple surnamed Lu from Gu Poison Peak who failed to break through, everyone else succeeded.
Currently serving in the southern part of the Qiulong Mountains, at the Leihuo Temple battlefield, Yan Ling said that Zhou Lingjun of Mangui Peak was struck dead by Tiandu Leijun.
He was the first young Nascent Soul cultivator to die on that battlefield.
The world changes so quickly that it is hard to predict.
The chat lasted for a long time, covering all sorts of topics, from young prodigies to Cold Blood Peak, the Southern Demon Clan, the battlefield situation, and so on.
We chatted for most of the day before finally getting down to business.
Wang Yu said, "The journey to the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm is extremely dangerous. I will enter with the Northern Demon Clan team. I entrust this Holy Decree to you to give to Yu Tangtang. You will go to the Endless Ice Plains with her."
Yan Ling nodded, then asked in confusion.
"Do we need to disguise ourselves?"
"It depends on the situation. The Ice Clan will definitely send a large number of powerful individuals. You can hide in the group of independent cultivators and help me gather information on these powerful individuals. The specific plan will depend on the actual situation."
The Heavenly Palace Secret Realm is extremely crucial. Wang Yu has set his sights on this place for his chance to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, so he wouldn't be aimless. He already has a plan and preliminary arrangements in mind.
The reason why the Northern Demon Clan's army followed them was not only because of their great power.
They also valued their knowledge of the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm, as much secret information could be shared, which naturally gave them an advantage over exploring alone.
"I see."
Yan Ling nodded and said no more. She stood with Wang Yu on the edge of the cliff, watching the clouds drift across the distant sky, feeling completely relaxed.
Wang Yu had gotten used to the quiet.
The two sat quietly until dusk.
Yan Ling suddenly said.
"Aside from our Blood Abyss training trip, I haven't explored any secret realms with you yet. The Myriad Treasure Pool at Jin Man Lou is about to open, so why don't we go together?"
The Heavenly Palace Secret Realm is still over thirty years away, so there's nothing to wait for anyway. And since Yan Ling has temporarily left the front lines, she won't be going back anytime soon.
He then invited Wang Yu to explore the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm together, and to cultivate their tacit understanding along the way.
"The Myriad Treasures Secret Realm... that's acceptable."
This secret realm was also part of Wang Yu's preparation plan. He had accumulated quite a few top-grade fourth-tier materials, but lacked suitable refining methods.
Although the Demon Refining Technique is simple and practical, it cannot be used to carefully craft the desired magical artifacts. The finished products are too crude and unworthy of being presented in a refined manner.
He used many of the spiritual items he obtained from the Northern Demon Clan to cultivate the Yellow Spring Divine Power, and also used a lot to nurture the Glazed Pagoda and cultivate the Frozen Demon Essence.
There are probably only a dozen or so top-grade materials left.
Besides various magical treasures and rare gems, the most crucial opportunity in the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm is the Myriad Treasures Pool, which is said to have been left behind by the Myriad Treasures Sect in ancient times.
The Myriad Treasures Pool is a top-grade spiritual treasure specifically designed for crafting artifacts.
It belongs to Jinmanlou.
When it was in the hands of the Wanbao Sect, renowned weapon-refining masters of all generations would often sacrifice themselves to their weapons at the last moment of their lives, which is how the Wanbao Pool, this top-grade spiritual treasure, was nurtured.
The legendary Elixir of a Hundred Treasures, which is said to be able to directly upgrade the rank of magical artifacts, is also produced in this secret realm.
As long as you can reach the end of the secret realm, you will receive a free crafting opportunity provided by the spirit of the Myriad Treasures Pool, which will at least be a top-tier fourth-grade item.
With a bit of luck, it's even possible to refine a fifth-tier spiritual treasure.
therefore.
After a brief consideration, Wang Yu nodded in agreement.
"That's exactly what I was thinking. Jin Manlou is opening the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm to all Nascent Soul cultivators. You only need to pay five top-grade spirit stones for a ticket to enter. Are you confident that you can make it to the end?"
"Give it a try."
Yan Ling gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, a smile curving her lips.
Compared to what she gained, Wang Yu's existence attracted her attention even more. After all, his past experiences were legendary, and in the Crimson Kite cultivation world, there was no more suitable Daoist partner than him.
Yan Ling rubbed the Qiankun Ring on her finger.
Inside was an opportunity she had obtained on the battlefield: a secret technique for the harmony of Yin and Yang from the Hehuan Demon Sect. The question was whether or not to invite Wang Yu to cultivate it together.
She hesitated, worried that her reputation and image would suffer, unaware that Wang could shamelessly invite the Ice Soul Fairy to cultivate together simply because of a precious pill.
They wouldn't care about such trivial matters.
As night fell, two streaks of light, one black and one blue, traversed thousands of mountains and rivers, heading south. They passed through the territory of the Refining Heaven Demon Sect, but Wang Yu showed no fear and crossed it without hesitation.
Chi Tian was only fit to be left in his dust; this threat had long since diminished in his mind, and he would eventually be able to completely resolve this problem.
They went into hiding for over a month.
The two arrived at the southern end of Chiyuan, the territory of the Mingshan Sect, which is also the location of Jinmanlou's headquarters—Tianchi!
The Myriad Treasures Secret Realm is located within Golden Toad City, or rather, it was precisely because of this top-tier secret realm that Golden Toad City was established here.
They endured wind and dew along the way until they reached their destination.
Wang Yu suddenly remembered his confidante, Jin Miaoshan. Speaking of which, she was almost at the Nascent Soul stage. He wondered if he could see her again this time.
Furthermore, the results for Jin Manlou's four successor candidates will be announced soon, probably shortly after the Wanbao Secret Realm.
With Jin Lin dead, Jin Miaoshan has no more rivals in the Chiyuan territory. Only Jin Xuanxuan and Jin Chixuan from Taihu Lake still have a fighting chance.
Maybe he can use his connections to get things done through back channels?
…………
…………
Golden Toad City.
This super spiritual city has the most spiritual veins in Chi Yuan, making it an excellent environment for cultivation. The spiritual energy condenses into mist in the air, making the entire Golden Toad City shrouded in spiritual mist all year round.
As a major commercial city and the private territory of the Jin Clan of Tianchi, there are countless Nascent Soul experts here. Even Wang Yu cannot act arbitrarily here.
The architectural style is similar to that of Tianbao City.
Hundreds of floating mountains float in the sky around the city, half of which belong to Jin Manlou's Nascent Soul Dojo, while the rest, apart from functional buildings, are mainly rented out.
Due to the advantages of the spiritual vein environment, the land price in Golden Toad City is extremely high, making it incredibly valuable. The business of renting out cave dwellings is the most profitable business.
The monks and families in the vicinity all like to buy property here.
If a Qi Refining cultivator stays for too long, there is even a risk of "spirit intoxication." Those who reside there for an extended period are at least Foundation Establishment cultivators, which demonstrates the strength of Golden Toad City.
The upcoming opening of the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm has attracted many Nascent Soul cultivators from the front lines to participate, resulting in an even greater number of powerful individuals and a lively and bustling scene everywhere.
There are quite a few treasure exchange events privately organized by Nascent Soul cultivators. After a brief investigation, I learned of three Nascent Soul circles, each requiring an introducer to participate in the event.
He's not in a hurry about that.
After settling in at a restaurant run by the Jin family with Yan Ling, Wang Yu ordered a large table of delicacies and fine wines, indulging in a retaliatory spending spree. The pleasure-seeking Wang Yu was so engrossed in enjoying life that his mouth was practically tasteless.
The cuisine of the southern region of Chiyuan is unique in its preparation of avian delicacies due to the presence of the Vermilion Bird Divine Mountain, and there is also a special delicacy supplied by the Underworld Mountain Sect.
Yin Beast Meat Porridge – don't let its unremarkable name fool you.
It is of great benefit to cultivators who practice Yin, Ice, Water, and Blood attribute techniques, as it invigorates Yang and nourishes the vital energy. Drinking a bowl before dual cultivation is even more effective.
The price is a bit high.
But Wang Yu didn't care about any of that. He had more spirit stones than he could ever spend, so he just spent the most expensive ones, which made Yan Ling feel a little heartache.
She had only been promoted a short time, just as she was running out of money.
Such extravagance is rare on ordinary days.
The two ate while discussing business.
"Brother Dao, there is still more than a month before the opening of the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm. Tomorrow, go to Jinmanlou first. With your reputation, participating in Bishop Youpeng's treasure exchange meeting should not be a problem."
"Let's not talk about these things yet, let's try the local specialties first."
Wang Yu picked up the jade chopsticks and ordered some Yin Beast meat porridge.
Yan Ling's face was flushed. She knew the many benefits of this meat porridge and thought that Wang Yu was hinting at something. She opened her mouth slightly, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
Who would have thought?
Suddenly, other people's voices rang out from the side.
"What are you pretending for? Is the treasure exchange meeting presided over by Bishop Youpeng something that just any Tom, Dick, or Harry is qualified to participate in?"
"If this lady wishes to participate, I can certainly help you. Would you do me the honor of joining us for a drink?"
Due to the recent influx of cultivators from outside Jinchan City.
Wang Yu and Yan Ling ate at a window seat on the third floor of Jin's Restaurant. They did not get a private room, which was also related to the fact that they did not reveal their cultivation level.
The one who spoke provocatively was a young nobleman.
He was fairly handsome, holding a black iron fan with sharp edges and waving it gently, thinking himself elegant, but in reality he was just a clown.
Wang Yu didn't even bother to raise an eyebrow.
This fool only has Foundation Establishment cultivation, while the old man beside him has late Core Formation cultivation. Judging from this, he is probably the offspring of some Nascent Soul cultivator.
He remained unmoved, but Yan Ling was somewhat annoyed.
With a glare, she coldly rebuked him.
"As far as age is concerned, I'm too young to be your great-aunt, get lost!"
The young master's expression changed slightly, and he gave the old man beside him a wink. The old man's eyes immediately flashed with a faint spiritual light, clearly indicating that he was using some kind of spiritual eye technique to spy on the two of them.
Wang Yu finally threw down his chopsticks.
"You can't reason with a damned devil, humph!"
The extreme cold spread, freezing both of them into ice sculptures. The Soul-Snatching Evil Boat arrived, and Wang Yu quickly discovered the truth behind this provocation through soul searching.
"The only offspring of the Heavenly Demon Lord? Interesting..."
Yan Ling frowned as he heard him preach.
"Jin Xuanxuan's people? Why are they making things difficult for us? Is it because of the incident when you offended Jin Manlou during your Foundation Establishment stage?"
"It's a long story, but it's not because of this."
Wang Yu shook his head, his mind racing.
The Heavenly Demon is Jin Xuanxuan's protector, possessing the eighth level of the Nascent Soul realm. Just as Jin Xiyuanjun is to Jin Miaoshan, the two can be regarded as a single entity.
This person was born in the Yellow Springs Temple. He was hunted down by the temple for stealing its most valuable treasure. He was seriously injured and on the verge of death when he was rescued by Jin Manlou. From then on, he became one of the Nascent Soul worshippers of the Jin family.
According to his offspring's memory, they were instigated by one of Jin Chixuan's subordinates. The young man, driven by lust, came over without thinking twice.
The whole thing was not meticulous at all, as if it was a deliberate flaw.
If I'm not mistaken.
When the two entered Jinchan City, they were spotted by the Jin family. He was the culprit who killed Jin Lin, although Jin Miaoshan took full responsibility afterwards.
However, for a Nascent Soul cultivator, finding out the truth is not difficult.
Wang Yu murmured.
"It's just like Jin Lin's clumsy methods. He wants me to become the enemy of the other two succession candidates... His plan is not bad, but his brain is a bit stupid."
Yan Ling was completely confused.
"What do you mean, fellow Daoist?"
"This matter is none of your business. I will handle it myself and also see some old acquaintances. You stay here and wait for me for a few days."
"I'll go with you."
Wang Yu paused in his standing posture, but his expression remained unchanged as he spoke.
"It's not very convenient, but I'll definitely do it next time!"
That's all.
He vanished instantly, transforming into aurora. The two ice sculptures left behind in the stairwell were spared by Wang Yu for the time being, as there was no need to make enemies indiscriminately.
On the other hand, it can be an opportunity to demand compensation for the offense.
He considered himself quite adept at seizing any opportunity to demand compensation, and he wasn't afraid of these petty and despicable matters at all.
On the street not far away, the person secretly watching sensed something was wrong, but had not yet gone far.
Then they saw Wang Yu leaning against the wall in front of them.
He said calmly.
Where do you want to go?
Update is here!
