Chapter 264: Chapter 180: New harvest, an object that can transform the divine soul!
In the Pearl Cave.
On the empty earth.
The terrifying wind relentlessly buffeted Mu Qianru, giving her no room to escape.
Seeing the ferocious White Tiger so close at hand, a sinking feeling slowly rose in Mu Qianru’s heart, her eyes filled with terror.
A tinge of regret undesirably wrapped around her mind.
Just then, the mocking voice of Jiang Yuan reached her ears.
“Mu Qianru, do you need my help? If so, you better shout at the sky, ‘Master, save me!’”
Hearing this familiar voice.
Mu Qianru was taken aback.
It’s him!
The image of Jiang Yuan immediately flashed through her mind.
At that time, she was at the fifth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, originally intending to rob Jiang Yuan of his possessions, not expecting to be defeated by him, who was at the second level of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
Even more so, she fell into his hands.
Everyday, she had to call him Master to stay alive. 𝒩eew updates 𝒂t n𝒐vel/bi𝒏(.)com
Now history is repeating itself, and she felt indignant.
Her, the Holy Daughter of the Heavenly Demon Sect, her master is a great cultivator of the Dharma Realm, one of the top existences in the Qianyuan Kingdom, when did she ever fall so low?
“Master, save me”
She shouted towards the sky.
“Please, come and save me!”
Jiang Yuan laughed, with Shu Xiaoxiao’s figure instantly appearing on the ground.
His figure then flickered, breaking through the spatial barricade and appearing in front of the ferocious White Tiger.
His palm lightly landed on the forehead of the White Tiger and he pushed down.
Boom
The head of the ferocious White Tiger instantly slammed into the earth while the ground beneath their feet shook violently, making Mu Qianru stumble a bit.
Looking at Jiang Yuan who had effortlessly suppressed the White Tiger, she looked at him in disbelief.
“Master, you…”
Jiang Yuan then released his palm, clenched his fingers into a fist. The fist was enveloped with a light consisting of red, black, white, orange, and green colors.
His fist lightly landed on the body of the White Tiger.
Its eyes suddenly opened wide, pupils dilated, body slowly falling onto the ground.
Boom
Stirring up a cloud of dust.
“Xiaoxiao, go clean up this White Tiger’s corpse, we’ll roast it later!”
“Yes, Young Master!”
Shu Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement.
Before leaving, she glanced at Mu Qianru and pouted.
Mu Qianru, however, was staring at Jiang Yuan in a stupor, her eyes revealing disbelief.
She swallowed and asked, “Have you broken through to the Divine Bridge Realm?”
“Call me Master!” Jiang Yuan said lightly.
Mu Qianru huffed lightly, then said, “Master, have you broken through to the Divine Bridge Realm?”
Jiang Yuan nodded, his gaze falling on the black bamboo in the distance.
His eyes lit up instantly.
Is this… Black Soul Jade Bamboo?
It must be, no doubt about it!
Jiang Yuan thought to himself.
He had read about Black Soul Jade Bamboo before.
This is a top-tier natural treasure; each segment represents five hundred years of accumulation, and it can grow up to ten segments, which would mark five thousand years.
The Black Soul Jade Bamboo in front of him grew three segments, meaning it contained over fifteen hundred years of essence.
The bamboo itself doesn’t serve much use, what’s useful is the soul fluid contained in each segment.
This substance had incredible effects, greatly enhancing the strength of the divine soul.
The growth of the divine soul is extremely important for the path of cultivation.
A stronger divine soul makes the transformation into a primordial spirit faster and earlier.
And the primordial spirit is a crucial condition for entering the Dharma Realm.
Most importantly, the soul fluid that’s over a thousand years old possesses magical effects, elevating the divine soul and bestowing an incredible innate gift.
This effect was confirmed by countless cultivators who had ever obtained this soul fluid, it was not a mere rumor.
Mu Qianru saw where Jiang Yuan was looking and immediately felt despondent.
A fifteen-hundred-year-old Black Soul Jade Bamboo, she was destined to have no share in it.
Bearing witness to Jiang Yuan easily killing the White Tiger, she understood that the gap between them was as colossal as a chasm, they were no longer on the same level.
Jiang Yuan flickered into existence beside the Black Soul Jade Bamboo.
It really is this stuff!
Seeing the Black Soul Jade Bamboo right in front of him, Jiang Yuan was completely sure now.
At the same time, seeing the Black Soul Jade Bamboo in Jiang Yuan’s hand, envy filled Mu Qianru.
She hesitated a bit before stepping forward, stammering: “Master, can you give me a share!”
Jiang Yuan weighed the Black Soul Jade Bamboo in his hand: “Give me a reason.”
“I…I can be your servant for three years!”
After she said that, she raised her head to look at Jiang Yuan, her eyes sparkling.
Jiang Yuan raised his hand, and a five-colored divine ring coalesced out of nowhere, instantly falling around her neck.
“Master, what is this?”
Jiang Yuan said: “This is payment for saving your life, it’s a means of control. In one or two months, this thing will lead you to me.”
Then Jiang Yuan looked at her lightly: “That reason doesn’t convince me, so the soul fluid doesn’t concern you.”
With a thought from Jiang Yuan, the fully accumulated Golden Qi of Luck on her body instantly entered Jiang Yuan’s Status Panel.
Seeing the sudden substantial increase in Luck Power on his Status Panel, Jiang Yuan was very satisfied.
If everything goes smoothly, in a few months, he would be able to harvest a lot of Luck Power.
Jiang Yuan was filled with anticipation.
Afterwards, he pulled a piece of Black Soul Jade Bamboo with a light motion and it fell into his other hand.
Jiang Yuan flickered, appearing in front of Shu Xiaoxiao.
“Damn it!”
She stomped her foot in frustration. Her seduction tactic hadn’t worked.
From the other side.
Jiang Yuan arrived at Shu Xiaoxiao’s side, who had by now dissected the ferocious White Tiger and cleaned off its fur with her sword qi.
“Young Master, is this Black Soul Jade Bamboo?”
She exclaimed happily.
Jiang Yuan nodded slightly: “Indeed, it is. This piece of Black Soul Jade Bamboo also contains a dose of thousand-year soul essence. Start by refining this essence.”
“Yes, Young Master!”
Shu Xiaoxiao wiped off a bit of water from the hem of her skirt and took the Black Soul Jade Bamboo from Jiang Yuan’s hand.
Mu Qianru watched the scene with a touch of envy.
Being his maid is really great!
She might even get some such top-grade treasure. Few people would be willing to give these precious treasures to their maids!
Shu Xiaoxiao gently tapped open a gap in the Black Soul Jade Bamboo and soul liquid, shimmering silver, slowly flowed into her mouth.
She slowly closed her eyes, sitting cross-legged, and started to refine the soul liquid in her mouth.
Jiang Yuan quietly watched her. A few moments passed.
Xiaoxiao opened her eyes, a trace of joy evident within them.
“Young Master, the effect of the thousand-year soul essence is indeed excellent. It has increased my divine soul tenfold,” she said.
Jiang Yuan then also glanced at her Status Panel.
[Name]: Shu Xiaoxiao
[Realm]: Eighth layer of the Spiritual Sea Realm
[Innate Luck]: Sword Immortal Reincarnation (Gold), Unparalleled Immortal Beauty (Gold), Swallowing the Sky and Devouring the Earth (Gold), Turning-a-Blessing-in-Disguise (Purple), Deeply Favored by Fortune (Blue), Childlike Heart (Blue), Outstanding Talent (Blue), Outstanding Comprehension (Green), Body of Wood (Green), Outstanding Divine Soul (Green)
[Outstanding Divine Soul]: Exceptional talent in the path of divine soul.
Satisfied at the sight of the additional Outstanding Divine Soul on her Status Panel, Jiang Yuan nodded slightly.
The rumor turned out to be true, it does indeed possess the effect to enhance divine soul talent.
No wonder the value of this item is so high in the books.
For the path of cultivation, the talent of the divine soul significantly outshines the talent of the physical body.
Even if the talent of the physical body is strong, it doesn’t provide significant benefits for breaking through realms.
No matter how strong one is in the same realm, it’s still hard to stand against a cultivator who surpasses several realms.
And the time allocated for cultivation in one’s lifetime is limited; focusing too much on one aspect will cause neglect in another.
Hence it’s only natural that not many people pay attention to their physical body.
After all, everything depends on the realm of cultivation!
Breaking through to a higher realm leads to a sublimation of life, not only greatly enhancing strength, but also significantly increasing lifespan.
Compared with this effect, the path of the physical body wouldn’t be much regarded by many sects.
If they invest too much time in the physical body, it’s bound to lag behind others in the realm of cultivation.
Hence, a top-grade treasure like the Black Soul Jade Bamboo that can enhance the divine soul and improve the talent of the divine soul is naturally quite valuable.
However, even so, Jiang Yuan didn’t have the intention to exchange it for other cultivation resources.
Such behavior may seem more profitable, but it’s not that simple.
It’s more important for him to convert each resource into his own foundation, that’s what he should be doing now.
There are still more than ten months until leaving the Pearl Cave. There’s no need to be like a miser.
Jiang Yuan sat cross-legged, and soon he also tapped open a piece of Black Soul Jade Bamboo and let the thousand-year soul essence trickle into his mouth.
He instantly felt that the soul liquid was like a cold pond, chill to the bone.
But it gave him an ethereal feeling.
Jiang Yuan retained it in his mouth and began to refine the thousand-year soul essence.
With the refinement, he felt his divine soul continuously strengthening, and the speed of this strengthening was countless times faster than usual.
Meanwhile.
Mu Qianru was fiddling with the multi-colored soul ring on her neck left by Jiang Yuan. The more she fiddled with it, the greater the astonishment she felt.
It is the convergence of the power of the Five Elements, but it felt solid. Touching the multi-colored soul ring on her neck felt like touching metal.
It’s totally beyond her ability to unravel.
After a brief attempt, she completely gave up.
She touched the multi-colored soul ring on her neck and mumbled to herself in embarrassment, it felt like she was wearing a pet collar.
Looking at Jiang Yuan in the distance, she felt a surge of irritation. But remembering his recent tactics, she could only silently endure her anger.
After a while.
Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes, exhaling a turbid breath.
Not bad!
He thought to himself. He could now feel that his divine soul was about twice as strong as before.
But the unique effect that brought about a transformation of the divine soul and further improved his talent had no impact on him.
Jiang Yuan wasn’t surprised at all.
After all, he possesses the purple-level innate qi fortune Divine Soul Fetal Breath.
His talent in the path of the divine soul is astonishing enough.
Such minor transformative effects naturally have no use for him.
He glanced again at Mu Qianru in the distance.
As for her previous request, Jiang Yuan didn’t care very much. If she provided a convincing reason, he’d be willing to give her a dose as well.
After all, the effect of the thousand-year soul liquid on him was not transformational.
But she didn’t provide any convincing reason and there was no benefit to him either.
Giving away such a treasure for nothing, Jiang Yuan certainly couldn’t bear to.
Then, Jiang Yuan once again struck a hole into the last piece of Black Soul Jade Bamboo and slowly poured the thousand-year soul liquid into his mouth.
Seeing this, Mu Qianru immediately closed her eyes in pain.
No more hope!
She felt greatly depressed.
At this moment, she was extremely envious of Shu Xiaoxiao by Jiang Yuan’s side. She didn’t even have to say anything, yet she received a dose of the thousand-year soul liquid from Jiang Yuan.
And herself, she had even promised to serve him as a servant for three years.
What a great sacrifice!
She’s the Holy Daughter of the Heavenly Demon Sect. Announcing this status and being his maid, wasn’t that enough to move him?
After another short while, Shu Xiaoxiao had finished dealing with the enormous White Tiger corpse.
Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes at this time, shaking his head slightly: “What a pity!”
He could just feel that his divine soul had reached some sort of limit. If he could push his divine soul beyond that limit, it would transform into a primordial spirit.
But the thousand-year soul liquid had just run out. Otherwise, he felt he could have attempted to transform his divine soul into a primordial spirit.
Once the divine soul transforms into a primordial spirit.
Although the realm doesn’t increase, the fighting capacity would increase a lot.
The scope of divine sense is wider, and more power from Heaven and Earth could be mobilized.
If one has cultivated secret techniques of the divine soul, then that power would be even more formidable, undergoing substantial transformation.
What a pity, just one step short!
Jiang Yuan sighed internally.
