Eternal Life: Hundredfold Rewards

Chapter 452 - 257: Endless Sea! Chaotic Demon Sea!

In the grand hall, the Four True Lords faced off against each other. Beneath their words, sharpness lay hidden, sword shadows flash; beneath the surface of tranquility and harmony, a storm brews.

Below the grand hall, the numerous Core Formation True Masters watched this scene, heard the implications within the Four True Lords’ conversations, and their eyes were filled with shock, their hearts trembled with fear.

The rest of their conversation was expected, after all, the Four True Lords were all Supreme Elders of the Three Sects, and their discussions were related to matters of the Nascent Soul Realm and sect affairs, which was understandable. The numerous Core Formation True Masters could already imagine, anticipate, and at most listen with immense curiosity and some astonished admiration.

However, they never expected the Four True Lords to talk about matters of the Divinity Transformation Great Power Level.

Even if it was at the Nascent Soul Level, it was enough to make them view it with reverence.

The Divinity Transformation Great Power Level, it was as if it was something beyond the nine heavens, leaving everyone dizzy and bewildered.

Qi Chuan’s Nascent Soul ascension ceremony lasted for a whole month.

However, matters pertaining to the True Monarch level lasted only for the first day.

Cangjian True Monarch and True Monarch of Yin and Yang visited the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect on the first day. After face-to-face discussions with Qi Chuan and Qingyun True Monarch in Myriad Flowers Hall for half a day, the two True Monarchs also took their leave and returned to their respective sects.

The Core Formation True Master level lasted for ten days.

During these ten days, these Core Formation True Masters were kept within the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect and even the more than ten affiliated countries beneath it, for sightseeing and participation in a series of activities and processes.

One reason was that the Nascent Soul ascension ceremony could not lack grandeur.

The second reason was the matter of sect expansion.

This time, Cangjian True Monarch and True Monarch of Yin and Yang personally visited the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect to congratulate Qi Chuan True Monarch on attaining the Nascent Soul Early Stage, and it also confirmed one thing, which was to acknowledge the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect as the number one sect of Beihua State, which was almost a foregone conclusion.

Since it became the number one sect of Beihua State, the power could not remain the same as before.

There would definitely be expansion.

Therefore, these Core Formation True Masters were kept for ten days to discuss collaboration agreements with the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect.

And once these collaboration agreements were finalized, the power of the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect would surely swell to an immensely prosperous state in no time.

And this state will continue until, years later, Qingyun True Monarch falls due to the exhaustion of lifespan, reverting the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect to having only one Nascent Soul True Monarch.

Or perhaps some sect between the Cangjian Pavilion and the Yin Yang Mansion sees the emergence of Dual Nascent Souls.

Only then will changes occur.

As for the last twenty days of the ceremony, it belonged to the Foundation Establishment Cultivators and Qi Refining Disciples, for a grand celebration among them, as they too would gain significant benefits from the Nascent Soul ascension ceremony.

Qi Chuan, aside from meeting Cangjian True Monarch, True Monarch of Yin and Yang, and many Core Formation True Masters on the first day, participated in handling some matters within the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect on the second and third days, and then had nothing else to do, allowing him some leisure time.

However, he did not remain idle for long.

He only spent two days in his own Cave Mansion, and outside the mansion appeared a familiar figure once again—Qingyun True Monarch.

Detecting the arrival of Qingyun True Monarch, Qi Chuan naturally opened the Cave Mansion and stepped out to greet him.

"Senior Brother Qingyun." Qi Chuan cupped his fists towards Qingyun True Monarch.

"Junior Brother Qi Chuan, I’ve finished my matters on my side, so I came to find you. If you have any unfinished matters on your side, I can wait a few more days." Qingyun True Monarch nodded at Qi Chuan and said with a smile.

As for the trivial matters in the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect that needed handling, Qingyun True Monarch, as the First Supreme Elder, certainly had more matters to attend to than Qi Chuan, who was the Second Supreme Elder.

Thus, Qingyun True Monarch only found time after being busy for two more days.

"I’m done with my matters as well," Qi Chuan said.

During the past two days, he had been in his Cave Mansion, using the mysterious Stone Talisman to release Spiritual Qi equivalent to a Tier Four Middle Grade Cave Mansion for cultivation.

Furthermore, he was practicing alchemy, enhancing his alchemy skills in hopes of advancing to a Tier Four Lower Grade Alchemist, to refine Profound Spirit Mist Marrow into Profound King Pill to assist his cultivation, allowing his cultivation to quickly reach the Peak of Nascent Soul Early Stage.

However, whether it was utilizing the mysterious Stone Talisman for cultivation or raising his alchemy proficiency to become a Tier Four Lower Grade Alchemist, it was not something that could be accomplished in a short time. It required prolonged and gradual effort, without rushing for immediate success.

Therefore, Qi Chuan could follow Qingyun True Monarch to handle matters at any time.

Before the Nascent Soul ascension ceremony, when Qingyun True Monarch bestowed upon him the Nine Flood Dragon Spirit Fire Shield, he had mentioned that there was something he needed his help with.

Qi Chuan knew that Qingyun True Monarch came today to seek his assistance in a matter.

Therefore, Qi Chuan proactively spoke up, "Senior Brother Qingyun, the matter you mentioned before, you might as well speak directly, I will not refuse."

Qingyun True Monarch nodded and stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze looking eastward, "Junior Brother Qi Chuan, do you know the east of Beihua State?"

"The east of Beihua State?" Qi Chuan nodded and said, "I know, the east of Beihua State is the Endless Sea, right?"

Given Qi Chuan’s current status and influence, having spent so much time in the North and South Hua States, he was naturally not someone unacquainted with the geography.

The Celestial North Domain consisted of nineteen states, and Beihua State was just an ordinary one among them.

However, Beihua State’s geographical location in the Celestial North Domain was somewhat special.

It was not surrounded by other states but was situated at the edge.

Of course, this did not mean that the strength of Beihua State was weak among the nineteen states of the Celestial North Domain. In fact, Beihua State was already considered mid-tier among the states.

Its uniqueness lay in the fact that the east did not border any neighboring states but was adjacent to the Endless Sea.

In reality, not only Beihua State, but also Nanhua State shared this trait.

And the Endless Sea was not merely a name; it was truly endless!

Even a Nascent Soul Late Stage Peak True Monarch couldn’t find the end of the Endless Sea. If they forcibly tried, they would exhaust their Mana and fall within the endless waves of the Endless Sea.

As for whether a Divinity Transformation Great Power could achieve it, that too remained an unknown.

Because the Divinity Transformation Great Power of the Celestial North Domain’s Celestial North State had never spoken a word about the Endless Sea.

Plus, within the Endless Sea existed numerous terrifyingly powerful Demon Beasts, among which were Tier Four Demon Beasts and even Tier Five Demon Beasts.

These sea beasts, given the unique geographical conditions of the Endless Sea, wielded extreme power, making them almost unbeatable by human cultivators of the same level.

However, Qi Chuan heard that not too far from Beihua State within the Endless Sea, there existed a vast cluster of islands, large and small. The combined area of these islands would roughly equal that of seven or eight states in the Celestial North Domain.

And this special island region was referred to by the cultivators of the cultivation realm in the Celestial North Domain as the Chaotic Demon Sea.

Within the Chaotic Demon Sea existed a vast array of various powers, with a significant number of Nascent Soul True Monarchs, and even two Divinity Transformation Great Powers.

Such an overabundance indeed made people marvel, given the island region’s smaller size compared to the Celestial North Domain, yet it had more Divinity Transformation Great Powers than the nineteen states in the Celestial North Domain, boasting two of them.

But this measurement only considered apparent areas.

In reality, the islands of varying sizes within the Chaotic Demon Sea were dispersed, and if all these islands and the sea areas between them were combined, the area of the Chaotic Demon Sea would be incomparably larger than the Celestial North Domain by numerous times.
