Chapter 1456 - 330: Innate Spirit Embryo

Chapter 1456: Chapter 330: Innate Spirit Embryo

Soon.

Ten days passed.

During this period, Shen Changqing’s storage ring often emitted subtle vibrations.

Those vibrations were all distress signals sent by cultivators of the Ziyun Clan.

Regarding this.

He paid no heed to any of them, not even bothering to reply.

The life and death of the Ziyun Clan cultivators were of little concern to him; waiting for the emergence of the Dao Arms Embryo was the most important thing right now.

After all, since these cultivators came here, if they truly perished at the hands of other clans, it simply indicated that their strength was insufficient.

As for whether the Ziyun Clan would blame him for this, Shen Changqing was not worried in the slightest.

As the saying goes.

The purpose of this journey was for the Ziyun Clan to compete for the territory’s ownership.

As long as the territory ownership can be obtained, the deaths of many cultivators wouldn’t matter.

Furthermore.

Even without the aid of other cultivators, he was confident he could secure the ownership of this territory.

The so-called proud heavens of the clans, in Shen Changqing’s eyes, were merely ants that he could easily defeat.

If it weren’t for the desire to keep a low profile, he would have already wiped out all the cultivators of the five clans even before the emergence of the territory, so why leave them until now?

Now.

As long as the Ziyun Clan’s mark is on him, the other clans will definitely come to him.

No other reason.

Without collecting all the marks of the various clans, it is impossible to obtain the territory’s ownership.

In other words.

To obtain the territory ownership, it is necessary to secure all the clan marks.

With this, Shen Changqing believes that even if he doesn’t seek out the proud heavens of the clans, those proud heavens will come to him.

At this moment.

The lotus that had been growing in the ravine suddenly swayed violently and slowly bloomed in front of his gaze.

The lotus bloomed.

The ethereal aura within began to spread.

In an instant.

Visible purple light shot up into the sky, piercing the heavens.

This scene.

Caused the cultivators from various clans in the territory to all look in the direction of the purple light.

The next moment.

They all rushed towards that direction, Yukong at speed.

"Purple light shooting to the sky, there must be a Supreme Treasure emerging!"

"If one can obtain this Supreme Treasure, there will surely be significant rewards within the clan!"

Each cultivator was visibly excited.

Although they were unsure about what Supreme Treasure had emerged, the soaring purple light made it clear what caliber of existence had been born.

Now, although the clans mainly compete for territory ownership, obtaining an exceptional Supreme Treasure would also be a great achievement.

"A Supreme Treasure has emerged!"

Zi Yunfang took a breath, relaxing his tense heart as he watched Hanyu leave.

Just moments ago.

While gathering spiritual medicine, he happened to encounter the proud heaven of the Hanjing clan.

At the first instance.

Zi Yunfang thought about retreating.

But the opponent’s strength was simply too formidable, even using the Supreme Treasure of Profound Peak, he was unable to match him.

Just when he thought he would perish here, the purple light shot up, leading Hanyu to abandon him and go directly to the location of the treasure’s emergence.

In this way.

He managed to escape with his life.

Looking at the soaring purple light, Zi Yunfang instinctively wanted to go over and take a look.

But quickly, he dismissed the idea.

"Now with the emergence of a Supreme Treasure, it will surely cause the various proud heavens to act and compete. With my strength, joining in could invite disaster. If so, let Ziyan Sheng have fun with them. I’m not serving any longer!"

An icy expression appeared in Zi Yunfang’s eyes.

He still harbored resentment over being demoted from Saint Heir to Substitute Holy Son due to Shen Changqing suppressing various peaks.

Only intimidated by the other’s strength, he didn’t show it.

Moreover.

Earlier, when he showed fawning behavior deliberately, Shen Changqing didn’t give him any face.

This situation further fueled Zi Yunfang’s inner anger.

"If Ziyan Sheng dies here, then I have a chance to regain the position of Saint Heir!"

Thinking of this possibility, he was even less inclined to participate.

If Ziyan Sheng died, although it would mean the Ziyun Clan lost the chance to compete for territory ownership, for him personally, it would be all benefits and no harm.

After all, it was Ziyan Sheng leading the group, and if he died, the clan wouldn’t blame Zi Yunfang.

On the contrary.

If the sole Saint Heir falls, then as the Substitute Holy Son, he would have a chance to become the true Saint Heir.

At that time, he might even receive more resources and privileges than before.

Taking a deep look in the direction of the purple light.

Zi Yunfang opted to head in the opposite direction by Yukong.

He chose not to join the treasure hunt.

On the contrary.

Now, with the proud heavens of all clans heading to compete for the treasure, he would have time to gather other resources within the territory.

Like those top-notch spiritual medicines, each one is of significant value.

Even if there are other cultivators with similar thoughts, Zi Yunfang wasn’t fazed in the least.

To be honest.

Being the former Saint Heir of the Purple Cloud Holy Land, he maintained a certain confidence.

Except for the Proud Heaven of various clans, he was confident in dealing with the remaining cultivators.

——

"Has the Dao Arms Embryo emerged?"

Shen Changqing looked at the purple light rising to the sky, his attention no longer elsewhere but entirely focused on the lotus in front of him.

In the blooming lotus, something akin to jade stone existed, with an ethereal glow emanating from within, giving a sacred feeling.

Qingyi said, "No, this is not yet a true emergence. Only when the lotus withers and all the essence energy is absorbed will the complete gestation occur."

"I see!" Shen Changqing nodded.

He wasn’t concerned about the purple light rising to the sky.

If it were someone else, they might worry about such an anomaly attracting formidable enemies.

But in Shen Changqing’s eyes, all the cultivators in this realm combined were not enough to be crushed by a single hand.

Thus.

Why bother worrying so much.

What he truly cared about was the Dao Arms Embryo before him.

"If the old man hasn’t mistaken, what is gestating now should be the Innate Spirit Embryo, not the Dao Arms Spirit Embryo!" Qingyi calmly stated, observing the gestating object within the lotus.

With his vision, seeing through this was not difficult.

Innate Spirit Embryo?

Shen Changqing’s expression shifted.

If it’s the Innate Spirit Embryo, that’s also good.

According to the other party, incorporating the Innate Spirit Embryo into the Dao Arms can enhance its grade.

"Speaking of which, does the Innate Spirit Embryo still have any use for you, senior?"

He thought of another matter.

If the Innate Spirit Embryo can be beneficial to Qingyi, then it’s prioritized for use on them.

The reason is simple.

If the Immortal Holy Soldier can fully recover, it would somewhat stand in an invincible position.

Qingyi replied wryly, "Thank you for your kindness, Supreme. Unfortunately, at my level, ordinary Innate Spirit Embryos are of little use, unless it’s a Chaos Spirit Embryo, then that’s different."

"Chaos Spirit Embryo?"

"The Chaos Spirit Embryo is a supreme treasure gestated within the chaos of the Heavens. Such treasures are more precious than ordinary Divine Medicine, even going unseen for a million years."

"If such Chaos Spirit Embryo emerges and is acquired by Twelfth Grade Dao Soldiers, there’s hope for ascension to Immortal Holy Soldier.

If obtained by an Immortal Holy Soldier, its power would be enhanced to a certain degree."

Qingyi explained patiently.

The rarity of the Chaos Spirit Embryo surpasses the Innate Spirit Embryo by countless times.

Acquiring a hundred Innate Spirit Embryos wouldn’t necessarily yield a single Chaos Spirit Embryo.

"Whenever a Chaos Spirit Embryo emerges, it drives Myriad Clans to frenzied contention. Even if one truly emerges now, acquiring it wouldn’t be easy."

Qingyi shook his head in conclusion.

With the current strength of the Human Clan, contending over a Chaos Spirit Embryo is mere folly.

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing contemplated internally.

If the other hadn’t mentioned it, he wouldn’t have known there was such a thing as Chaos Spirit Embryo.

To give Dao Soldiers a chance to ascend to Immortal Holy Soldier, it indeed ranks as a Supreme Treasure.

Immediately.

Shen Changqing refocused his attention on the Innate Spirit Embryo before him.

Although this Spirit Embryo has no effect on an Immortal Holy Soldier, there are still other Dao Arms he can enhance.

"The Holy Slaying is already at the pinnacle of the Seventh Grade, nearly ascending to the Eighth Grade. If it fuses with this Innate Spirit Embryo, I believe it will confidently ascend to the Eighth Grade!"

He decided to utilize this Innate Spirit Embryo to enhance the Holy Slaying Saber.

Previously, in a battle within the Central Profound Realm, the Holy Slaying Saber had slain numerous Divine Kings. The power from their flesh and blood had been absorbed into its blade, accumulating the foundation of this Dao Arms to a considerably strong degree.

If he can further enhance it, it would benefit himself greatly as well.

Therefore.

Shen Changqing had made his decision.

With the means to ascend the Dao Arms available, his first thought was of Wu Shu, as Legacy Dao Arms are crucial to the prosperity and decline of the Human Clan. The second thought was of Qingyi, as the Immortal Holy Soldier is equally important.

If neither is used, then it’s the turn of the Holy Slaying Saber.

This is not about personal feelings but rather a rational arrangement based on importance.

At this moment.

The void trembles.

A strong cultivator tears through the void.

The moment the other appears, their gaze is cast upon the blooming lotus.

"The Supreme Treasure!"

They didn’t immediately act to snatch it, as the Supreme Treasure before them was clearly still gestating, not yet completely emerged.

Subsequently.

This cultivator also noticed Shen Changqing standing on the other side.

Instantly, their expression subtly altered.

"Ziyan Sheng!"

"You are... Hanyu?"

Seeing the other, Shen Changqing also recognized him.

Hanyu!

The Proud Heaven of the Hanjing Clan.

According to information from the Ziyun Clan, they rank further back in the Investiture of the Gods, with strength considered not too formidable among the Proud Heaven.

Therefore.

He only casually glanced at them and paid no further attention.

This scene made Hanyu feel belittled instantly, their gaze turning cold.

As the Proud Heaven of a clan, when had he ever been so disregarded by another cultivator?

But with the Supreme Treasure not yet fully emerged, and recalling the recent clash between Shen Changqing and Beili Wentian, he barely suppressed his internal fury, not acting rashly.
