Terran Guardian - Chapter 3757

Chapter 3733 Five-Colored Cloud Fungus

Shen Changqing now increasingly favors the Bodhi Heartless Tea.

This kind of immortal tea

contains the Daoist essence of the Great Sage of the past.

Tasting tea

is a way to refine the mind!

It allows one to comprehend the Dao of the Great Sage of the past, thus verifying one’s own path.

Although Shen Changqing’s cultivation is currently stuck at the Immortal Emperor realm, unable to truly break through to the Half-Saint realm, every step of accumulation is preparation for a future breakthrough.

The deeper the accumulation,

the stronger the explosion.

This

is the essence of “great accumulation leads

to a great explosion.” Yun Su now respectfully serves Shen Changqing, pouring tea for him.

Such a level of immortal tea is beyond the reach of an ancient immortal like herself, but even just smelling its aroma is a tremendous opportunity for her.

Yun Su has a premonition that the opportunity gained this time, if digested in seclusion later, might allow her to open up one or two more Primordial Chaos Worlds.

If she also considers the immortal pills Shen Changqing just bestowed upon her, even breaking through to the Immortal Emperor realm is not impossible.

Watching the auction items sell one after another, Shen Changqing remained calm and composed.

However,

he soon paused as another item appeared.

“Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom!”

Shen Changqing looked at the rare treasure on the screen, which resembled an ordinary lingzhi mushroom, and was already somewhat tempted.

The Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom!

It was a treasure born of heaven and earth.

Its grade varied, containing the power of the five elements of heaven and earth, capable of cleansing and tempering a cultivator’s body, similar to the Jade Marrow Mushroom King.

The Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom before him was a tenth-grade rare treasure, belonging to the semi-saint level.

Now,

Shen Changqing had already achieved physical sainthood, his physical strength comparable to a first-stage semi-saint.

To advance further, he either needed to find a high-grade rare treasure or obtain another semi-saint level innate bloodline.

Clearly,

the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom belonged to the former.

Therefore,

when the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom appeared, Shen Changqing couldn’t help but place a bid.

However, such rare and precious materials were clearly in high demand, and in a short time, the price had already exceeded one thousand top-grade immortal stones.

Seeing this, Shen Changqing gave up the bidding. Simply

put

, it was too expensive.

These rare and precious materials had no standard price; their value depended solely on the number of people who needed them.

Shen Changqing currently had a limited number of top-grade immortal stones, and he needed to use them wisely. While the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom was precious, he felt it wasn’t worth the high price to acquire it.

“What a pity! If I could obtain this Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom, I would have a chance to strengthen my physical body even further!”

Shen Changqing shook his head, picked up his teacup, and took a sip. His slight regret dissipated.

There were many treasures in the world, and he couldn’t possibly consume them all. Missing out was just that—missing out.

Compared to the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom, the inheritance of an eighth-tier, sixth-grade Grandmaster was what he truly needed.

With this inheritance,

Shen Changqing was absolutely confident he could reach the eighth-tier Grandmaster level.

At that time, if he could refine a semi-saint elixir, why would he worry about not obtaining a rare treasure like the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom?

Even if he couldn’t get the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom, obtaining other rare treasures wouldn’t be a problem.

An eighth-tier grandmaster was enough to make many semi-saints treat him as an honored guest.

No one would easily offend a grandmaster of alchemy at this level

. Semi-saints also need to cultivate and cannot do without the aid of elixirs.

But the problem is that

there aren’t many top-tier grandmasters of alchemy.

Especially those who can reach the eighth tier, they are even rarer.

Therefore,

although he missed the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom, as long as he could get his hands on the eighth-tier sixth-grade grandmaster’s inheritance, that would be enough in Shen Changqing’s eyes.

…

On the other side.

Inside a celestial mansion.

An old man and a young man sat here, watching the auction scene in front of them.

“Master, we spent such a great price to obtain the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom. What if we don’t have enough immortal stones when we bid for the eighth-tier sixth-grade grandmaster’s inheritance?”

The young man’s expression was slightly worried.

Chi Zhenzi glanced at him and smiled calmly: “You can rest assured about this matter. The inheritance of an eighth-tier, sixth-grade Grandmaster is unlikely to be contested by many forces.

After all, even if one obtains such an inheritance, it’s useless without a powerful Grandmaster of Alchemy to comprehend it.

If such an inheritance were enough to propel one into the ranks of eighth-tier Grandmasters, then eighth-tier Grandmasters wouldn’t be so rare!”

“This inheritance of an eighth-tier, sixth-grade Grandmaster is merely comparable to a sixth-tribulation half-saint. Normally, the inheritance of a sixth-tribulation half-saint is worth at most a few hundred or a thousand top-grade immortal stones.

Now that we’ve acquired the Five-Colored Cloud Fungus, we still have enough immortal stones to bid. This inheritance will certainly not fall into the hands of others!” Chi Zhenzi

was confident in this.

After all, inheritance is nothing more than learning from the paths of predecessors.

In fact,

at the half-saint level,

the least valuable thing is inheritance.

After all, someone else’s path is ultimately not one’s own; how far one can go in the end still depends on oneself.

In this situation, while the semi-saint inheritance is still valuable, it is much cheaper compared to innate imperial weapons and other rare treasures of the same rank.

Ultimately,

the latter can genuinely enhance one’s strength.

Therefore

, Chi Zhenzi is full of confidence.

Hearing this,

the young man nodded, also reassured.

After all, their purpose in coming here was for the eighth-rank grandmaster inheritance.

If such an inheritance fell into the hands of others, it would be a huge loss.

At this moment,

the competition for the Five-Colored Cloud Fungus was also coming to an end.

Seeing the price increase slowing down, Chi Zhenzi was confident and calmly smiled, “That’s about enough. Ten more top-grade immortal stones will suffice.”

“Yes!”

The young man immediately followed the order and replaced the original price.

Sure enough ,

after their bids, the price of the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom was completely fixed.

Not long after,

a cultivator from Tongtian Pavilion arrived carrying the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom.

After inspecting it and confirming there were no problems, Chi Zhenzi handed over the immortal stones to the other party.

On the other side,

the young man looked at the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom in front of him. Within it, one could see the evolution of the five elements of heaven and earth, the coexistence of water and fire, and towering green trees, the evolution of the earth—

the five great principles of the five elements gathered within.

“This is the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom…”

He took a deep breath; this was the first time he had ever seen such a high-level natural treasure.

Chi Zhenzi was overjoyed, his face beaming with delight: “The Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom is born from the essence of the five elements of heaven and earth, and is the most crucial ingredient in refining the Five Elements Chaos Immortal Pill.

With this rare treasure, I can begin refining this elixir as soon as I return!”

“The Five Elements Chaos Immortal Pill?”

the young man asked, puzzled.

Chi Zhenzi explained, “The Five Elements Chaos Immortal Pill is a semi-saint elixir. Its sole purpose is to rebuild a cultivator’s foundation and temper their physical body.

It can even allow a cultivator to achieve physical sainthood, completely elevating their body to the semi-saint realm.

However, refining the Five Elements Chaos Immortal Pill is extremely difficult, requiring numerous rare and precious ingredients.

I spent billions of years, ultimately lacking only the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom.

Now, with this Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom, all the necessary materials for this elixir are gathered!”

This is why Chi Zhenzi was willing to pay any price to acquire the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom.

After all,

refining the Five Elements Chaos Pill was of paramount importance to him.

If he could achieve physical sainthood and greatly increase his strength, he could rely on this foundation to overcome the second Five Decays of Heaven and Man, and reach the Second Tribulation Half-Saint realm.   Even if he couldn’t use it himself, he could exchange it for a large amount of cultivation resources.

Again   ,   this kind of pill that could make one achieve physical sainthood was enough to drive most cultivators crazy.   Then   there was his long-cherished wish.   To refine the Five Elements Chaos Immortal Pill, Chi Zhenzi had spent countless years collecting numerous materials, and now he was just one step away from success; of course, he didn’t want to miss it.   ”Physical sainthood!!”   The young man was shocked.   He hadn’t expected the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom to have such a wonderful use.   Afterwards,   Chi Zhenzi carefully put away the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom, and at the same time, set up many restrictions in the jade box to prevent the immortal energy of this rare treasure from leaking out and affecting the subsequent pill refining effect.   After the auction of the Five-Colored Cloud Mushroom ended, several other items appeared, but Chi Zhenzi did not bid on any more.   His initial purpose in coming here was singular: to obtain the inheritance of an eighth-tier, sixth-grade Grandmaster.   It was only after arriving at the Tongtian Pavilion that Chi Zhenzi learned of the existence of the Five-Colored Cloud Fungus, and thus resolved to acquire this rare treasure.   He wasn’t too worried about whether this would affect his chances of obtaining the eighth-tier, sixth-grade Grandmaster inheritance.   Soon,   a new item appeared for auction.   Chi Zhenzi immediately sat up straight, looking at the jade slip on the screen, a smile spreading across his face.   ”Starting bid: one hundred top-grade immortal stones… Hmph, disciple, bid one thousand top-grade immortal stones directly!”   His purpose was to tell the other cultivators who wanted to participate in the auction that he was determined to obtain the eighth-tier, sixth-grade Grandmaster inheritance, thus discouraging them from competing.   The young man understood   this as well.   Therefore, as soon as Chi Zhenzi finished speaking, he immediately raised the price.   Sure enough,   when the price instantly soared to one thousand top-grade immortal stones, the scene fell silent, as if frozen in time.   Seeing this, Chi Zhenzi’s smile deepened.   ”Very well, it seems this Grandmaster’s inheritance is rightfully mine—”   But before he could speak, the price suddenly jumped, becoming 1010 top-grade immortal stones.   This scene   froze the smile on Chi Zhenzi’s face.   Someone else was bidding?   This gave Chi Zhenzi a sudden bad feeling.   The young man’s expression changed slightly: “Master—”   ”Keep raising the price, 1100 top-grade immortal stones. I want to see just how much he has!”   Chi Zhenzi said coldly.   Upon hearing this, the young man hurriedly placed a bid.   But this price was immediately overtaken, as if other cultivators were also determined to get it.   …   1100 top-grade immortal stones!   1150 top-grade immortal stones!   1200—   …   As the price gradually increased, Chi Zhenzi’s face grew increasingly gloomy.
