Chapter 873: Chapter 330: Double Joy, Secrets, and Seeking Help (Ten-Thousand-Word Special)
More than three months passed.
Her aura unexpectedly soared directly to the Foundation Establishment!
Before this, Niu Qiuxiu was still a Mid-Stage Qi Cultivator, not only crossing several levels consecutively but also achieving Foundation Establishment without Pills:
"Is this the true power of the Ten Great Spirit Bodies?!"
Fu Changsheng couldn’t pretend he wasn’t shocked.
But he was well-experienced, recalling that Yongxuan had reached the Foundation Establishment Stage merely as an infant, which was even more terrifying.
Fu Changsheng smiled with satisfaction:
"It seems the day we invade the Joy Sect won’t take long."
With Niu Qiuxiu’s breakthrough speed, she won’t need a hundred years to form a Golden Core. If she encounters such an opportunity again, it might even be possible to become a Nascent Soul, while Master Yun is merely at the Golden Core stage.
When the clan has a few more High-Tier Cultivators,
he can feel at ease going out to search for his parents’ whereabouts.
Thinking like this.
The next moment.
A familiar mechanical voice echoed in his Sea of Divine Sense:
"Ding"
"Your clan member successfully reached the Foundation Establishment, earning one hundred Clan Contribution Points."
Immediately after.
The Clan Contribution Points on the panel instantly updated to eleven thousand seven hundred.
Seeing no more poison gas below, Fu Changsheng immediately descended rapidly, landing at the Barrier’s entrance.
Just then.
The cocoon behind emitted cracking sounds.
Subsequently.
A delicate jade hand reached out from the cocoon.
The next moment.
The transformed Niu Qiuxiu emerged from the cocoon like the Nine Heavens Profound Lady, without a thread of clothing, causing Fu Changsheng to hurriedly turn around. After a while, Niu Qiuxiu’s voice came from behind: "Greetings, Patriarch."
Perhaps influenced by the Poison Body, her voice had become a bit colder than before.
Fu Changsheng turned around, only to see a mark resembling the Barrier’s spider imprint conspicuously on Niu Qiuxiu’s forehead. Seeing Fu Changsheng staring, Niu Qiuxiu explained:
"Reporting to the Patriarch, the poison gas at the Barrier’s entrance was transformed by the unsealing of the Ancient Ten Thousand Poison Profound Spider’s remains."
Fu Changsheng was dazed.
If so.
Then this Ancient Ten Thousand Poison Profound Spider must be the guardian of the Cave Mansion:
"Qiuxiu, do you possess the Ancient Ten Thousand Poison Profound Spider’s memories?"
"Only its grief over the demise of its master and the despair of being trapped here, but no complete memories. The only fragment is that its master annulled their Contract before passing, but the master didn’t have time to open the Barrier before dying, thus imprisoning the Ten Thousand Poison Profound Spider here."
After all, tens of thousands of years had passed.
If the Ten Thousand Poison Profound Spider hadn’t become immortal,
it certainly couldn’t have lived that long.
Fu Changsheng nodded slightly:
"Qiuxiu, operate the Secret Technique I previously taught you to maintain your cultivation at its original aura."
"Yes, Patriarch."
Although Niu Qiuxiu’s personality had grown colder, she was still obedient to Fu Changsheng. When she controlled her aura back to the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation, Fu Changsheng sent a message to Yaoyao and Celestial Sound Fairy to come down.
Yaoyao looked at the cleared poison gas, assuming it was Fu Changsheng’s doing, and smiled:
"Father, you always have a way."
Saying this,
she glanced at the Barrier’s entrance, slightly eager, but mindful of the prior poison gas, she restrained herself, merely looking without moving:
Fu Changsheng said:
"Yaoyao, follow behind me, Qiuxiu stays here to guard."
Speaking,
he directed Xiaoqing.
The Cyan Flood Dragon transformed into a green light, darting towards the Barrier.
The long passageway, corroded by poison gas over the years, made the Yan Gang Stone on the stone walls thoroughly poisonous, and everyone held their breath.
Traversing the dim passage’s end.
Suddenly.
The scene before them brightened.
They saw a vast Daoist Field appear before their eyes.
In the eighteen positions of this field, there were long vines woven like Talisman Arrays piercing the void, strands of Star Power following these vines into the field, where at the center, a funnel-like Divine Artifact floated, absorbing all Star Power.
As the runes on the Divine Artifact operated, the Star Power drawn from the void seemed refined, entering the Array Platform, and then being infused into the land below.
Fu Changsheng scanned with his Divine Sense and found the seemingly ordinary square land beneath the Array Platform, watered by Star Power for countless tens of thousands of years, had transformed into a Star Stone Vein, although a miniature vein, if mined, should yield one hundred thousand pieces.
Star Stones in the outside world are rare.
Yet they could have a hundred thousand pieces.
Yaoyao also became excited:
"Father, with these Star Stones, we won’t worry about resources for cultivating the ’Nine Heavens Star Technique’ in the future. Also, as long as this Grand Array continues to operate, Star Stones will continually be created, which will undoubtedly become a significant asset for the Fu Family."
Fu Changsheng also beamed with joy.
But remained rational:
"It took tens of thousands of years to form this small vein, indicating that transforming an ordinary stone into a Star Stone might take tens of thousands, even more years. So after mining these Star Stones, it’s better to transform this place into a secret site for cultivating the ’Nine Heavens Star Technique’."
Instead of absorbing the Star Power from the Star Stones,
it’s better to meditate directly under the Divine Artifact and absorb it, sparing the refinement of impurities in the Star Stones, saving much time:
"Father, you think things through so thoroughly."
Saying this.
Yaoyao glanced around the complex Ancient Array, eyes full of amazement:
"Father, to construct such an array to refine Star Power, the predecessor’s cultivation must have been at least above the Golden Core, right?"
