Chapter 475 - 235: Breakthrough, Crucial Intelligence, Exotic Treasure (2)
Luckily.
He had already prepared.
With a flick of his wrist.
The Spirit Crystal Marrow, shrouded in mystery, fell into his palm:
"Hoo."
He let out a light breath of impure air.
He cautiously began to control the energy of the Spirit Crystal Marrow, breaking it down bit by bit, and then fusing it with the red and green Spiritual Qi within his Dantian. This process was like weaving a delicate net, requiring extremely high concentration and spiritual power control.
As the fusion proceeded.
He heard from within his Dantian.
The sound of ticking began to echo.
Droplets of True Liquid began to condense out.
At first, they appeared intermittently, but later they connected into a continuous line, like raindrops on banana leaves.
Finally.
After spending an entire year.
He felt that the True Liquid within his Dantian had reached a critical point.
He once again stimulated the True Liquid to circulate along the Heaven and Earth Bridge, and the barrier that was once insurmountable now was easily leaped over.
Fu Changsheng’s eyes lit up:
"Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishment!"
Looking within his Dantian.
He saw the True Liquid undergoing a wonderful transformation post-breakthrough.
The once scattered droplets of True Liquid began to gather together, the red and green lights intertwined, becoming brighter. The quantity of True Liquid not only significantly increased but the quality also underwent a qualitative leap.
They converged like trickling streams into a small lake, radiating immense vitality and life within the Dantian.
With the transformation of the True Liquid.
A powerful force erupted from the Dantian, swiftly spreading throughout his entire body along his meridians.
"So this is the power of the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishment?"
Fu Changsheng felt a burst of joy in his heart.
After the breakthrough.
His Divine Sense underwent a tremendous change.
Previously, his Divine Sense could only vaguely sense movements within a few dozen meters, but now, he clearly perceived everything within a hundred meters radius. Whether it was a tiny mosquito flying by or a falling leaf, he could sense it sharply. This gave him more reaction time in the face of danger and provided a greater advantage in the search for cultivation resources.
Fu Changsheng did not rush to leave seclusion.
He spent another half a year consolidating his cultivation:
"It’s time to come out of seclusion."
With a thought.
In the next moment.
He exited the Training Room, appearing in the Secret Chamber.
Glancing at the hourglass beside him, half a year had passed in the outside world, and the Contribution Points on the panel had changed to three thousand five hundred.
Half a year had gone by.
He wondered what events had transpired.
Fu Changsheng thought:
"Exchange for intelligence"
Buzz!
The panel quivered.
A torrent of yellow light surged.
Soon after.
Rows of text emerged:
[1: The Grand Elder Qiuu Kui of the Yinan Tribe hails from the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect. The outbreak of the South Huai Tai Chi Locust Tide was orchestrated by him. After the Court’s Intelligence Department discovered it, they reported to the Court. For the greater good, the Court intends to settle accounts after the Beast Tide.]
[2: The underground secret chamber of the Yinan Tribe holds the secrets of breakthrough to the Purple Mansion, known only to successive Yinan Chieftains, requiring the Chief Token for ingress and egress.]
[3: Within your Yunshan County fief, there lies a Secret Realm]
[4: In ten days, a pack of Red-tailed Wolves will appear west of Pingshan County]
[5: In four months, the Beast Tide will fully erupt, bringing unprecedented devastation to all Noble Family territories]
[6: Your first grandson will be born in one month]
[7: Gongsun Wen orchestrated the slaying of Loose Cultivator Wu Lishang, obtaining a fragmented map from his storage bag. The map indicates that a drop of Life Source Water is hidden within All-Seeing Mountain. Gongsun Wen doesn’t wish to share the Life Source Water with his kin and has already reached All-Seeing Mountain alone.]
[8:.....]
...
A total of ten pieces of intelligence were exchanged.
Fu Changsheng glanced through them one by one.
He particularly took note of the first and second pieces; previously, he was unclear why the Court intended to take action against the Yinan Tribe, but after reviewing the information provided by the system, he finally understood.
However.
The secret chamber mentioned, holding the secrets of the Yinan Tribe’s Purple Mansion, could only be accessed with the Chief Token.
If his memory served him right.
The Yinan Chieftain was of Purple Mansion cultivation:
"This is quite troublesome."
Even if he broke through to the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishment, he stood no chance against a Great Cultivator of the Purple Mansion, escaping from such a figure would already be an achievement.
Fu Changsheng murmured:
"This matter requires long-term planning."
Currently, the most crucial task is dealing with the Beast Tide.
However.
His gaze fell on the seventh piece of intelligence regarding Gongsun Wen.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
The All-Seeing Mountain was within his Yunshan County fief, and Gongsun Wen, this sly fox, dared to venture here alone—quite audacious indeed.
Back at the Cao Family Mountain.
He was tricked by this brat, and now, having finally got the opportunity, how could he let the opponent escape unscathed?
Moreover.
He was determined to obtain the Life Source Water from All-Seeing Mountain.
With this drop of Life Source Water, the Fourth-Transformation Cyan Lotus in the Yellow Stone Medicine Garden could instantly mature.
A Technique was cast within the stone chamber.
The Array activated.
Exiting the stone chamber.
Fu Changsheng glanced at the adjacent stone chamber.
He noticed that the Array Talisman Jade Scroll he had placed there was missing, clearly taken by his clone Fu Changlei. The Array of the other’s Secret Chamber was sealed.
Within such a short distance.
He could clearly sense the other presence in the Secret Chamber.
Leaving the Patriarch’s Mansion.
Fu Changsheng notified no clan members, instead opting to use the Invisibility Technique, rushing towards All-Seeing Mountain with the utmost speed.
....
Meanwhile.
Gongsun Wen, employing the Invisibility Technique, silently reached All-Seeing Mountain.
This towering mountain shrouded in clouds appeared like a mystical veil, hiding countless unknown secrets:
