Chapter 1041: Chapter 1041: Descending to the Lower Realm with Dan

Luodu, Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

“True Person Wang, all the pills are here, please inspect them.”

Inside an elegant room, a white-robed cultivator placed two ivory-colored jade boxes on the desk in front of Wang Chen.

Wang Chen stretched out his hand to lift the lids, and four pills–two purple and two green–appeared before his eyes.

A rich fragrance wafted through the air, refreshing his spirit upon inhaling!

“Thank you.”

Wang Chen immediately closed the lids again, without conducting a detailed inspection.

The reputation of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion was outstanding, famously renowned throughout the countless worlds, ensuring no subterfuge of inferior tricks.

Although these four pills are of no small value.

The two green pills are mid-grade Staying Beauty Pills, which preserve one’s youthful appearance for a hundred years–a highly desired pill among female cultivators in the Cultivation World.

Due to the rarity of the materials, their prices are naturally very expensive.

However, compared to the other two purple pills, they paled in significance,

Because these two purple pills were Lifespan Extension Pills!

Although cultivators have longer lifespans than ordinary people, their longevity has limits; even a Tribulation-Transcending Tao Ancestor only lives for a hundred thousand years.

Only by enduring the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation and ascending to eternity can one achieve the legendary immortality.

But in consideration, with billions of cultivators in the countless worlds, how many can reach such a realm?

Reaching the realm of a Nascent Soul True Immortal is already an exceptional feat!

With a Nascent Soul, one could live up to a thousand years.

In fact, most cultivators halt at the Golden Core or even earlier at the Purple Mansion stage, having even shorter lifespans.

Thus, items and pills that extend life become extremely precious. Some heaven-sent treasures that significantly increase lifespan would even provoke True Monarchs and True Venerables to fight over them.

The two Lifespan Extension Pills Wang Chen just acquired are merely the lowest-grade, each extending life by fifty years, and their effects can’t be stacked. He had reserved them half a year in advance from the Myriad Treasures Pavilion and paid with high-quality Spirit Stones.

It was still uncertain whether he could secure them or not, as the materials for making Lifespan Extension Pills are exceedingly rare and mostly controlled by major sects and powers, who generally do not sell them to the public.

Wang Chen waited over half a year to obtain these two pills, which was considered quite fortunate.

As for the price, there was absolutely no room for negotiation!

Storing the jade boxes into the Sumeru Ring, Wang Chen stood up to bid farewell and left.

Returning to his home, he went to his Cultivation Chamber and took out the four pills again.

Rubbing the Cangqing Ring on his left ring finger, Wang Chen took a deep breath.

Having settled in Luodu Immortal City for a year now, he had been diligently cultivating and, coupled with investing points to exploit some advantages, had finally advanced his main practice, the Innate Five Elements Skill, to the fifth tier.

Not far from his own Cultivation Realm.

The smaller the gap between the tier of the main cultivation technique and the Cultivation Realm, the stronger the strength demonstrated. Currently, Wang Chen could barely be considered a high-tier Golden Core cultivator.

Besides cultivating the Innate Five Elements Skill, Wang Chen also devoted considerable time and effort to studying the Cangqing Ring.

The Cangqing Ring, linked to the Cangqing Domain, was his foundation for establishing the Tao, and its importance was undeniable.

However, Wang Chen’s understanding and mastery of this treasured ring were still quite superficial.

After one year of relentless refinement and a substantial investment of Spirit Stones, Wang Chen had discovered some new functionalities of the Cangqing Ring.

For instance, transferring objects to the Lower Realm.

That is, transporting items from the Haotian Realm to the Cangqing Domain.

While it might sound simple, it is extremely difficult in practice and consumes a lot of resources.

After continuous experimentation and repeated tests, Wang Chen could now transport an item the size of a chicken egg into the Cangqing Domain.

While the recipient in the Cangqing Domain was naturally his external incarnation, Ling Zhiyuan.

Ling Zhiyuan essentially served as Wang Chen’s marking point in the Cangqing Domain, as long as he wore the Cangqing Ring he could constantly induce a connection with Ling Zhiyuan’s Divine Soul.

As his mastery over the Cangqing Ring increased, this induction also became more stable and clearer.

After the success of the teleportation experiment, Wang Chen then placed an order with the Myriad Treasures Pavilion for Lifespan Extension Pills and Staying Beauty Pills.

These four precious pills were ordered for Wu Zhao and Xi Yun.

Because one year in the Haotian Realm equated to ten years in the Cangqing Domain, by the time Wang Chen congealed his Nascent Soul in the Haotian Realm, Wu Zhao and Xi Yun might have already been buried in the dust.

This was certainly not what Wang Chen wanted to see.

With a wave of his hand, the four pills were instantly stored inside the Cangqing Ring.

The next moment, Wang Chen stimulated his Golden Core mana and infused it into the precious ring, simultaneously triggering the power of his Divine Soul to connect with his external incarnation.

When Wang Chen clearly sensed the presence of Ling Zhiyuan and confirmed that the other party was ready, he immediately activated the power of the Cangqing Ring.

The Spiritual Energy stored within the ring was instantly drained by a large amount, and the four pills vanished!

It was successful.

Wang Chen received the feedback from his incarnation and couldn’t help but breathe a huge sigh of relief.

If the teleportation had failed, his loss would have been tremendous.

Not to mention the value of the two Lifespan Extension Pills and two Staying Beauty Pills, just the Spirit Stones invested in this teleportation alone amounted to a significant figure, with a very high cost!

He finally relieved a major worry and could now focus wholeheartedly on breaking through to the Nascent Soul Great Realm.

As for Ling Zhiyuan, being Wang Chen’s external incarnation, even in the not highly-ceilinged Cangqing Domain, living for a few hundred years wouldn’t be a problem, so he temporarily didn’t need a Lifespan Extension Pill.

Once Wang Chen breaks through to the Nascent Soul Great Realm, he can bring Wu Zhao and Xi Yun up from the Lower Realm in person.

The same problem naturally wouldn’t exist then.

As Wang Chen was pondering, he suddenly felt a movement in his heart and stood up to leave the cultivation chamber.

When Wang Chen arrived at the front courtyard, Su Ziling had just seen off a visitor.

“My lord, this is the invitation just sent by True Person Huangfu.”

Su Ziling handed a beautifully crafted invitation to Wang Chen, saying, “Inviting you to attend his nuptial celebration.”

“Sure.”

Wang Chen took the invitation.

He had bought this Immortal Mansion and although he usually kept to himself, he had met a few neighbors.

Those living here were all Golden Core True Persons, as neighbors, there were no conflicts of interests or grievances, and the interactions were naturally polite.

Though Wang Chen did not socialize with the neighbors, it would be inappropriate to not attend the banquet since an invitation had been sent.

After all, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and it was necessary to be on good terms as one might need help sometime.

Wang Chen looked at the time on the invitation, which was just in half a month.

Thinking it over, he said to Su Ziling, “Go and find out what kind of person True Person Huangfu’s newly formed Tao companion is, so we can prepare a suitable gift.”

Wang Chen was usually diligent in cultivation and left everything at home untouched, so most of the time it was Su Ziling managing things.

Her neighborhood relations were much better than Wang Chen’s.

Of course, the people Su Ziling knew definitely differed from her status, but it made it easier to gather information.

“Yes.”

Su Ziling pursed her lips and smiled, gladly accepting the task.
