CHAPTER 535: CHAPTER 526 HEADING TO QI COUNTRY (SECOND UPDATE, SEEKING SUBSCRIPTION)

"Ten years is not too late!" Lu Xuanji said.

"To heal the injuries, a Sixth Grade Creation Fruit is necessary, but such a level of Spirit Fruit is extremely rare even in Chu Country. Only Qi Country has it, but often, even with money, it’s hard to acquire!" Jin Xi said, "Xuanji, when you attempt Divinity Transformation, don’t be as reckless as me!"

"Wait for me, I’ll heal your wounds!" Lu Xuanji stepped forward, "As long as I live, I won’t let you die!"

With that, he took out the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasure, and began setting up the Thirty-Three Heavens Grand Array.

Buzz buzz buzz!

The void flickered, and thirty-three Magical Treasures floated up and down, emitting brilliant treasure light. As the Magical Treasures operated together, they gradually evolved into a supreme Grand Array.

In this Array, the Heaven Mending Cauldron was at the center.

The Heaven Mending Cauldron, born with Heaven Mending Qi, could heal the wounds of cultivators.

As the Array operated, the power of the Heaven Mending Cauldron was stacking, and the grade of the evolving Heaven Mending Qi was increasing.

About half a day later, a strand of gray Heaven Mending Qi was born.

Jin Xi absorbed a mouthful of Heaven Mending Qi, operated the Cultivation Technique to refine it, and his body, like shattered porcelain, slowly healed a bit, alleviating his injuries.

Lu Xuanji also breathed a sigh of relief.

With the help of the Thirty-Three Heavens Supreme Treasure, he could extend Jin Xi’s life for twenty more years.

...

After leaving the Cave Mansion, Lu Xuanji looked somewhat hesitant.

"How is the master?"

Long Xuan asked.

"The situation is very bad!" Lu Xuanji replied, "Do you know where there might be a Sixth Grade Creation Fruit?"

"I don’t know!" Long Xuan said, "All these years, I’ve continuously sought news of the Sixth Grade Creation Fruit, but made no progress. Even the Cyan Lotus Celestial Venerable is inquiring but has no news. A Sixth Grade Creation Fruit is incredibly valuable, and even a Divinity Transformation would use it to heal."

"If a cultivator obtains a Sixth Grade Creation Fruit, they will hide it and not reveal it. Finding it is quite difficult."

Lu Xuanji said, "Chu Country doesn’t have it. Where might it be?"

Long Xuan said, "Qi Country, a certain family has a Sixth Grade Creation Fruit Tree that produces Sixth Grade Creation Fruits. But acquiring it is very difficult. That Clan is guarded by a Divinity Transformation, and the outcome is unpredictable! It might be procured, or it might fail! The uncertainty is immense."

Firstly, that Clan might have exactly finished their Creation Fruits. Secondly, even if they have some, purchasing them may not be possible.

Chu Country is far from Qi Country, with potential risks along the way.

"No matter how difficult, I must go!" Lu Xuanji said.

"Here’s the Cyan Lotus Token, it might help resolve some dangers!" Long Xuan said, handing over a token.

On the token was engraved a cyan lotus, with a hint of Divinity Transformation aura leaking from it.

When traveling outside, having a powerful background is important.

With a Divinity Transformation as a backing, many existences can be deterred.

Lu Xuanji put away the token and asked, "How is the situation in Chu Country? How are the several Human Race Divinity Transformations? How is the front line situation?"

"The situation in Chu Country is relatively stable. But the several Human Race Divinity Transformations have not appeared, and the several Demon Race Divinity Transformations are also in that Cave Mansion. Neither Chu Country nor the Hundred Thousand Mountains have Divinity Transformations stationed. Both sides are wary of something, so there is no war!"

Long Xuan said.

"It’s taking a bit long."

"Recently, about thirty True Monarchs from both the Demon Race and the Human Race attempted to achieve Divinity Transformation, but all failed!" Long Xuan said.

In the exchange, the general situation was revealed.

War, at its core, is about competing for resources.

But with the revival of Spiritual Qi, resources in all regions have increased, objectively alleviating the tensions between the two races, significantly reducing wars. In many places at the front line, both sides are retreating, leaving only symbolic troops in few areas to guard against sudden attacks.

With the revival of Spiritual Qi, the difficulty in breaking through realms has decreased.

In a mere fifty years, the number of Golden Core cultivators has explosively grown, increasing by five layers, so much that Golden Cores now roam everywhere.

Even the number of Nascent Soul cultivators has greatly increased.

However, the difficulty of achieving Divinity Transformation remains immense, with many still falling to calamities.

Human Race Divinity Transformations and Demon Race Divinity Transformations have all entered the Golden Crow Cave Mansion, and it has been fifty years without any emergence, to the delight of many cultivators.

Previously, whether in Chu Country or the Hundred Thousand Mountains, seven layers of resources were used to support the Divinity Transformations, burdening the lower-level cultivators greatly. But now they’ve temporarily disappeared, eliminating the need for tribute, improving lives greatly.

...

Of course, those Divinity Transformations have only temporarily disappeared.

The Spiritual Tablets dedicated to them all show they are still alive.

Whether the Divinity Transformations of Wu Country or Yue Country or the incarnations of the Sea Race, none have taken advantage of the upper power vacuum to seize these two territories, showing remarkable martial virtue.

Instead, Divinity Transformations from Wu Country, Yue Country, and the Sea Race, along with other races, have gone into divine seclusion, seeming to completely vanish.

Many related intelligence reports indicate they have encountered some fortuitous opportunity and are in closed cultivation.

The competition for external territories has also greatly decreased.

In the Cultivation Realm, enhancing one’s strength is paramount, whereas things like territorial battles rank third or even fourth.

In many regions of the Eastern Wilderness, things have settled into an eerie peace.

"Peace?"

Lu Xuanji was a bit speechless.

Regarding the war in this world, he felt speechless.

...

After organizing his belongings, Lu Xuanji gathered the Lu Family members, leaving behind some Spirit Stones and extra Elixirs.

He instructed Long Xuan, Ning Xue, and others to take care of the Clan and beware of attacks from others.

After giving his advice, Lu Xuanji set off, golden light flickering under his feet, heading northeast, embarking on the road to Qi Country.

Qi Country, a major nation located in the Eastern Wilderness, no less in size than Chu Country, with more cultivators and stronger ones, too. Not only that, it has a strong commercial atmosphere, where all sorts of Spirit Medicines, Spirit Pills, and Spirit Treasures are frequently traded. Many cultivators from the Eastern Wilderness go there to purchase rare items.

However, if possible, he wouldn’t plan to go to Qi Country... because it’s dangerous.

In the Cultivation Immortality World, the strong are respected, and incidents of murder and treasure robbery frequently occur.

Many cultivators, even if they have money, dare not spend it lavishly, as such behavior would attract the attention of some powerful figures who might attempt ambushes and even bring disaster to their entire family.

Many cultivators rarely venture far, mostly staying near their family. Even if they must go to some Cultivation Realm for specific reasons, they would travel in groups to avoid being murdered and having their treasures stolen.

This time, going to Qi Country to purchase a Sixth Grade Creation Fruit would cost at least over five thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones.

Such a large amount of Top-Grade Spirit Stones is enough to attract some Half-Step Divinity Transformation or even Divinity Transformation’s attention, possibly resulting in an ambush.

Farming painstakingly, but looting seems easier.

But this time, it’s necessary to go.
