Chapter 1369 - 762: Treasure Dividing in the Cold Water Domain, Dragon Fortune Revealed! (Part 3)

Chapter 1369: Chapter 762: Treasure Dividing in the Cold Water Domain, Dragon Fortune Revealed! (Part 3)

This is all arranged by the school spending money. To retain him, Lishan Mountain spared no expense and put in great effort!

Looking at his gigantic cultivation room, Meng Chuan sighed inwardly, feeling that such kindness can never be fully repaid...

A fleeting thought crossed his mind, and suddenly, a strange idea arose in his heart.

Now that the treasure land is complete, has he also become one of those with property in the Martial Arts Realm?

What a delightful thought!

Regaining his senses, Meng Chuan looked around, and the treasure land’s scenery like an icy island volcano came into view.

The river, frozen by frost, zigzagged and was ten zhang wide, encircling the entire treasure land and dividing it into three sectors, with the ice river forming a "triangle" around a central artificial volcano.

It was because he was accustomed to seeing this style in other cultivation rooms that he designed the source of the fire attribute aura as a volcano.

The actual source providing fire attribute aura to the treasure land is the [Red Crystal Coral] planted beneath the volcano.

This is the core item of a fire attribute treasure land obtained from the Red Fiend Nest, possessing growth potential.

With the passage of time and the exchange and nurturing of aura, it is not a problem to advance to the fourth grade.

The icy river exudes cold and light snowflakes drift down from above the river, disappearing without a trace as they fall onto the volcano’s mouth, and when they fall on the river’s surface, they freeze into the smooth ice, with small snowflakes hardening like branches, forming crystal frost.

"I went to great lengths for this river..."

With clothes flapping in the wind, Meng Chuan looked down, sighing inwardly at his own difficulties.

Previously, purchasing the Tier Five Fierce True Spirit cost nearly half of his special battle merits.

The remaining special battle merits from competitions, plus previous savings, were all spent here...

The top-grade fifth-grade natural treasures, which can serve as the core of a water attribute treasure land — [Unmeltable Water].

"Ten thousand special battle merits, damn, that’s one-fifth the price of the Dawn Divine Sword, a sixth-grade Divine Weapon, truly expensive!"

Each time he thought of it, Meng Chuan was so heartbroken that he couldn’t sleep.

But with some perception, he felt much relieved.

This item was bought not only to provide ample water attribute aura to better cultivate the Celestial Abyss Skill.

The Five Elements conflict with each other; Unmeltable Water can also serve as a natural barrier for the harmony of the Five Elements.

Without this thing, the wonders of the Five Elements coexisting in a single treasure land would no longer be seen.

"For personal use, expensive is just expensive, just enjoy it..."

Meng Chuan withdrew his thoughts and turned to scrutinize the sides of the river formed by Unmeltable Water.

The triangular river, with the center being the land of fire attribute, on the left side is a low grassland area.

Stepping into it, Meng Chuan felt the world suddenly become quiet.

It wasn’t that external sounds ceased, but rather his heart became calm, feeling tranquil yet vibrant.

The core item of a third-grade wood attribute treasure land — [Rong Carpet].

The right side of the river’s peripheral is a low hill made of black iron rock, black gold rock, cold iron ore, and so on.

Walking on it, Meng Chuan could hear crisp sounds, and beneath his feet was compacted mineral sand, with the wind blowing past his ears like sword whistles.

Beneath the hill is buried a piece of Black Gold Mother Fiend born from the depths of the earth’s vein, also third-grade.

These two items are the core items of the treasure land provided to him by the school based on the higher education agreement.

Far from being as well arranged as what he did himself, but for now, they are sufficient.

In the future, when resources are plentiful, the quality can still be upgraded.

Running along the glacier, Meng Chuan seamlessly moved to the "triangle" base.

This place was covered with black soil, fertile black land, with earth attribute aura rich and heavy.

A fourth-grade natural treasure — [Underworld Soil].

With only 867 special battle merits left in his pocket, Meng Chuan couldn’t afford such an item at all.

However, Principal Yang asked him to select a World Youth Championship reward, and the main campus paid for it, so he didn’t hesitate...

Initially, Meng Chuan was more interested in the sixth-grade treasure produced in the Kunlun Mountains, [Indestructible Dust].

The special battle merits section in the Armory, priced at 38,888.

Unfortunately, Yang Huan asked him to calm down, saying the United University still needs to get by...

Ahem...This is the complete view of his personal treasure land, which can be considered a "Little Cave and Blessed Land."

In addition, the fifth floor also spent a large sum to build eight small rooms, all "low-grade treasure lands" like the cultivation rooms of the Infinite Martial Arts Dojo, for the personnel of the research institute to cultivate.

Meng Chuan also has plans to rent them out by the hour as a means of recouping funds.

The school spent all its resources, plus Meng Chuan exhausted his assets, leading to astronomical costs for building this research facility.

Buying real estate is indeed costly...

Clearing these irrelevant thoughts, Meng Chuan calmed his mind and gradually stood still, circulating his energy.

"Let me see how much boost my treasure land can bring to cultivation..."

...

He reached to his chest, pulled out the Team Divine Mat, and sat cross-legged floating on the ice.

Ah~

Chilling to the core.

Unmelting water can be considered extremely cold; a short time contact with it doesn’t matter.

However, after cultivating for a long time, it also feels eerie.

Still as he was, at this moment he resembled a majestic mountain.

After a while.

Meng Chuan grabbed with both hands, a hundred-zhang surge of water vapor flowed into a stream. By his hand, this qi could crumble mountains and overturn rivers, also flowing through Zhuji to deepen cultivation gradually.

With a movement of mind, his whole body was enveloped in pure white glow, mist swirling above.

He closed his eyes, gathered his spirit, and practiced Celestial Abyss Water Skill.

The pressure of heavy water surged into his body like a tide, not only increasing qi blood, but the flexibility of his limbs and bones were also gradually enhancing.

Day after day, this is the gap that opens up between him and others.

Divine skill mutates the body, it has always been this way.

Like spring rain nurturing silently, each divine skill has its unique "characteristic."

Dragon King Cui’s earnest teachings:

"The path of abyssal water is to use the great to ’deceive’ others, to hold great virtue, to carry all things."

A human body affected by it is also the same.

The eyes beneath Meng Chuan’s closed eyelids trembled, he introspected the northern dark pool within his body.

His sight sank to the bottom, the little tortoise like a dense stubborn stone plunged into the mud bottom.

The Black Tortoise was still asleep.

"I don’t know how long it will take to wake up..."

Meng Chuan has never been a person easy to satisfy.

Blessed by good fortune, he was still thinking about the remodeling of Little Sumeru Mountain.

His thoughts moved again, turning to realize his own cultivation experience.

"Between heaven and earth, elemental energy is pervasive, and those with spiritual nature reap the greatest benefit..."

This was what Master Ding Guang taught him the day before.

Those with spiritual nature are the earthly treasures bred from the essence of humanity or transformations of the Demon Nest dimension.

It’s said to be nurturing, but in reality, it is mutation.

This is not exclusive to humans; extreme Tianshan, rivers, lakes, seas can all grant things with spiritual nature new vitality.

For instance, this [Unmelting Water] is indeed a treasure beneath Minjiang of western Sichuan, cultivated only once in three hundred years.

Meng Chuan shook the mighty waves alone, abyssal water boundless, like a rootless withered leaf.

"Phew..."

After drifting for two hours, Meng Chuan exhaled a long breath, dissipating his skill.

This breath seemed like cold air twisted and formed into a silver-white cloth, frozen in mid-air for a long time without melting.

He gradually comprehended:

"Cultivating this way is more than twenty percent more efficient than before. Sitting atop it, even the recovery speed of kidney water qi has slightly improved, in this way, my Breaking Four progress can be ahead of schedule."

Joyful, Meng Chuan positioned himself upright, exploring martial arts corresponding to the other four elements around the treasure land, the joy on his face growing more pronounced with time.

After a long time, he finally stood firm on the hill of the treasure land.

Gold qi spiraled around his body, five fingers spread out dissolved, steaming into billowing white smoke.

Meng Chuan’s chest gently rose, pondering while quickly calming his breath:

"Practicing Five Elements Fist under the reinforcement of my treasure land has greatly improved, the effect is never something the ’common’ treasure lands can match.

Especially the fire and earth attributes, due to the core item grade being higher than gold and wood, the reinforcement effect is about ten percent stronger..."

Don’t underestimate this mere ten percent, it may appear small, but over time it results in considerable disparity.

Drawing in water qi, Meng Chuan washed his face to refresh, contemplating.

Having just "moved in," he was already thinking about the matter of replacing the core item later...

"I can first arrange for the Han Hai Market department to help me slowly scour the outside, see if I can buy core items for treasure lands above fourth-grade.

If not possible, then I’ll accumulate special merits and take it slow, the Execution Bureau is about to be established, there are many good opportunities."

The Execution Bureau is about to be established by Great Chu—no, by the [Human Alliance]—a department in high demand, with rich rewards, including even regulated alien resources due to scarcity.

Meng Chuan has seen and visited, it’s at the "secret base" within the main headquarters of Shangjing Military Academy.

Not only gold and wood attributes, even rare and hard-to-find yin-yang earthly treasures, possible to serve as core item of treasure land, might also be obtainable.

With the passage of time, under the mind-adjusting technique, Meng Chuan soon regained his vitality, continuing to practice martial arts.

Recently, he spent considerably less time on iron body cultivation.

In pursuit of the fastest breakthrough of the Fourth Limit, he devoted most of his time to cultivating qi blood.

"After the Dharma Realm of Little Sumeru Mountain is reformed, I’ll make up for it."

Regarding the path of the physical body, Meng Chuan would never neglect it.

...

Time flew by, reaching mid-June, abruptly entering summer.
