Carefree Path of Dreams

Chapter 732 - Immortal Stone



“Four Oceans Immortal Sects?”

Fang Yuan intentionally appeared visibly moved.

“That’s right!” Cheng Fei felt proud. “In the Four Oceans Immortal Sects, we have a Heavenly Lord guarding it. Our Vast Ocean Sect is a lower sect, but there are also Earth Immortal Patriarchs inside! There will naturally be what Fellow Daoist desires!”

Heavenly Lord was the respectful name given to Heaven Immortals in this realm.

After Essence Soul would be Immortals. Starting from Human Immortal, one would carry on to be Earth Immortal and then Heaven Immortal!

If my guess is correct, an Earth Immortal is equivalent to a Seventh Tier Illusionary Divine in the lower realms, while a Heaven Immortal is a Sage!

A gleam flashed in Fang Yuan’s eyes.

A high dimension realm was indeed not the same. The Four Oceans Immortal Sects was just a faction among a hundred or so, but there were actually Sages in it!

How many almighty beings were actually concealed within those 33 large sects, loose cultivators, demonic cultivators, and even congenital Gods?

However... the Spiritual Realm is rumored to be very vast. There was once a Heaven Immortal who flew in one direction for tens of years and still didn’t reach the end! Dragons and snakes exist within the deep mountains can be understood as such.

Many pieces of information appeared in Fang Yuan’s mind, but he did not instantly reply.

“Enter into the Vast Ocean Sect? I need to consider...”

“Of course! Of course!” Cheng Fei repeatedly nodded. “However, I can assure that if you enter the Vast Ocean Sect, you’ll be treated the same as me and can even see the most ancient books and records within the sect, even the Vast Ocean Heart Manual. This was evolved from the ‘Overturn Oceans Heavenly Book’ of the Four Oceans Immortal Sects and sufficient to cultivate to Earth Immortal!”

He seemed very eager for Fang Yuan to join, telling him many benefits.

Fang Yuan declined in a roundabout manner, saying that he needed a few more days to think before leaving the cave abode. A cold smile appeared.

Someone who is unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions! The Vast Ocean Sect is not a sect in shambles, so how could an Essence Soul Venerable put in so much effort to draw me over? His warmth is slightly abnormally, so it’s most likely that there’s a scheme behind this, or perhaps he’s about to use me to block a catastrophe!

Fang Yuan had already seen through the habits of these sects.

Any organization would not treat an outsider the same way they treated their closest members.

Unless there was some special circumstance that urgently needed a sacrifice.

Inside the cave abode.

Cheng Fei was somewhat annoyed. ” Sigh ... I was overly anxious and leaked some clues... With the intelligence of an Essence Soul Venerable, he’d definitely have noticed something was amiss, but... if I didn’t find someone as a scapegoat, would I really have to go to that place of death?”

An Essence Soul Venerable had just stepped onto the threshold of immortality, so of course they would not wish to die!

“Only... he hasn’t bluntly refused yet, so there’s still hope!” Cheng Fei had some anticipation. “Using emotions, logic, benefits, or at worst treasures... compared to life, mere worldly possessions are nothing...”

...

The City Square naturally had more cave abodes.

As the concept of time for true cultivators and mortals was different, rent was therefore calculated in months. All of the cave abodes each had its own heaven and earth, even having simple defensive arrays, and the Spiritual Energy was abundant.

Fang Yuan casually chose one and sat cross-legged while silently training his Essence Soul, operating his Elemental Spiritual Energy Cultivation Technique.

“If I cultivate step-by-step, the fourth layer should be creating a spiritual field, while the fifth layer is to create a domain! However, this is the style of the Mental Demon Realm. Furthermore, although both the Terra World and the Spiritual Realm have Spiritual Energy, the worlds are still different.”

What he currently wanted to do was completely remold the Elemental Spiritual Energy Cultivation Technique according to the rules of Spiritual Realm.

The fourth layer directly polished a person’s body and transformed them into a Human Immortal.

“Of course, Human Immortal should be fine, but simply relying on my imagination’s inferences to blindly act for Earth Immortal isn’t too probable. I need to find a few guinea pigs or refer to some cultivation techniques...”

Fang Yuan thought of the Ghost Immortal and Earth Immortal founders that he had casually named in his Heavenly Abode..

Although the names were the same, the connotations they represented were wide apart.

“In the Spiritual Realm, Human Immortals have excellent body, soul, and a long lifespan, while Earth Immortals can unlock a Prosperous Land!”

This was already the most valuable piece of information from Zhang Feng. Any more than that would be something a small Stellar Malignance disciple could not come into contact with.

“From this, it can be seen that a Heavenly Lord Immortal is probably a Sage... Inside the 72 mid-tier immortal sects, there must be a senior that can suppress fate energy. And in the 33 large immortal sects, there must be the existence of someone higher than a Heaven Immortal, the same tier as my current realm...”

Fang Yuan was somewhat excited as he pondered this.

This was a river that was suitable for him to create chaos in, instead of those small ponds in the lower realms that were already unable to satisfy him.

“Now, the most important matter is to first recover my cultivation and then find true cultivation techniques as reference...”

At the moment, the cultivation techniques that were in his vision had to at least be able to cultivate to Heaven Immortal, best would be a realm higher than Heaven Immortal.

In other words, even within the Four Oceans Immortal Sects, only the Overturn Oceans Heavenly Book was able to rouse his interest.

“Of course, a few lower-tier cultivation techniques are also very important fundamentals that can help me improve my Elemental Spiritual Energy Cultivation Technique...

“That Cheng Fei... wants something from me and it seems very urgent. Within three days, he’ll definitely find me!”

A gleam flickered in Fang Yuan’s eyes as he raised his hand out to grab.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the air, streams of green air currents gathered and merged, forming bits of translucent crystal bodies.

This was a Spiritual Energy crystal, the hard currency of cultivators.

If it had been any other Essence Soul Venerables, or even Human and Earth Immortals, they would unlikely be unable to reach this stage.

However, his realm was profound and his intrinsic quality advanced. Even if he was in a land without a spirit vein, a single breath would be able to gather the thin Spiritual Energy. In this city square containing a spirit vein, this was a trivial matter.

“The price of living here is merely ten spiritual crystals a day, but if I start refining and extracting from the spirit vein, I can obtain up to ten thousand crystals in an instant!”

With Fang Yuan’s current knowledge and means, he could suck the spirit vein dry in an instant simply by using Essence Soul power.

Of course, doing this would be rash and alert the enemy.

At the moment, casually condensing a few spiritual crystals was able to immediately transform him into a wealthy person among the cultivators.

“In fact, although it’s mainly Spiritual Energy inside the Spiritual Realm, there’s an even higher Immortal Qi!”

Fang Yuan silently pondered.

What was known as Spiritual Energy actually did not exist within this realm. Instead, it was similar to the Monger World elemental plane that was a flat dimension.

The various terrain and arrays in the Spiritual Realm could change the magnetic field and destroy the dimensional limitations, causing the Spiritual Energy to manifest and descend, even forming a stable spirit vein.

“For Immortal Cultivators, spiritual crystal is hard currency. However, if it’s instead an immortal stone, it’d be even more invaluable!”

Fang Yuan’s spiritual will entered the Spiritual Energy, constantly delving deeper and deeper, then he suddenly waved his hand.

Threads of a bright purple power instantly appeared and slithered like a dragon, flying across the sky in all directions.

“Immortal Qi condensation! So it’s like this. Go!”

Immediately afterward, the purple air currents gathered and formed a golden purple stone with a vague meandering golden dragon on it in his hands.

“This is an immortal stone. Its value should be thousands of times higher than a spiritual crystal. No! It can’t be compared at all!”

Fang Yuan played around with the immortal stone and gradually figured out its purpose. “Useful thing! It’s a waste giving this immortal stone to Human Immortals to use. Its biggest use is supplementing the realm power of the Earth Immortal’s Prosperous Land! To increase its foundation!”

Realm power was the highest level power of a realm.

In the lower realms, only the realm’s will could shift the natural source power.

However, in the Spiritual Realm, Spiritual Energy was accumulating and transforming at the core!

Even a Heaven Immortal would greedily eye something that could improve the foundation of their Prosperous Land or Heavenly Abode.

“To be able to absorb Immortal Qi from Spiritual Energy, they must be at least an Earth Immortal, while Heaven Immortals are able to easily tackle this difficult problem...”

Fang Yuan flung the rocks in his hands and grinned. “To buy time, this is a decent disguise and deterrence!”

Even in the upper realms, Heaven Immortal was a terrific rank.

Regardless, it was already sufficient to confuse Cheng Fei and the Vast Ocean Sect behind him.

...

Fang Yuan’s intuition was very accurate. Merely by the second day, Cheng Fei paid him a visit.

Cheng Fei’s true body came over full of smiles. “Have you considered the previous matter, Fellow Daoist?”

“Truthfully, I’m used to exploring the world and can’t tolerate being restrained... Furthermore, although it requires many resources to enhance my body, it isn’t a fruitless venture when I wander about searching for secrets!”

Fang Yuan flung the stone in his hands.

“This is... immortal stone?” The next instant, Cheng Fei’s eyes widened. “This is very difficult to absorb even for an Earth Immortal Patriarch. This can increase the foundation of the Heavenly Abode or Prosperous Land and would be immediately used, very seldom taken out for trading. How come you have one on you?”

“This was naturally passed down by predecessors...” Fang Yuan smiled, making an inscrutable expression. After pausing, he said, “The reason why I showed you this item was not to brag, but to prove that I’m not poor, so you don’t need to say those pretentious words.”

Seeing this, Cheng Fei’s heart instantly sank. This loose cultivator has some wealth on him and his mentality is very clear, so he won’t take risks just for a small benefit. What should I do?

He merely has a little wealth on him. Previously, he was slightly genuinely moved. It seems that he’s truly lacking in cultivation techniques!

Thinking this, he quickly had some confidence and sipped his spiritual tea. “Alright, I’ll also be honest. When I wanted to enlist Fellow Daoist, I indeed had an ulterior motive. However, riches come from danger. If Fellow Daoist wants to obtain a better cultivation technique, you need to take some risks, right?”

“I agree!” Fang Yuan snapped his fingers. “Whatever Fellow Daoist wants me to do, we can discuss it a bit.”

” Sigh ... This issue gives me heartache, but I really can’t evade it. An Essence Soul Venerable is needed to proceed...” Cheng Fei sighed, then suddenly asked, “Does Fellow Daoist know about the Divine Dao?”

“Converging all thoughts and casting the Golden Body. I’ve heard a little about it before!”

Fang Yuan’s knowledge was entirely from Zhang Feng.

The Divine Dao within the Spiritual Realm was much different from the Gods of the Monger World. Its hierarchy was like a giant corporation with all the Gods doing their jobs.

Of course, due to the characteristic of being unable to leave their local territory, no Gods participated in the earlier skirmish of the Terra World.
