In the Grand Canyon, the spiritual Qi is rampaging.
The Dan Guang released by Chen Yun completely defends against these powers.
He was reaching out to stroke the head of the unique-horned Golden Spirit beast, forming a bond with it.
Suddenly, next to him, the sound of a slightly reverent and disbelief-filled voice came from Jingchen Senior, "Chen Dao... Master Chen, have you already ascended to the realm of Earth Immortals?"
Chen Yun turned his head and looked over at Jingchen Senior, noting that her face no longer had the "equal treatment" that it did before.
Instead, it expressed a hint of reverence.
He could understand the other person's psychology.
After all, the Earth Immortal realm and the Human Immortal realm can be considered two entirely different realms.
Some human immortals have lived for 10,800 years and still can't breakthrough to the Earth Immortal realm.
Don't look at Master Jingchen as a late-stage Human Immortal, with an age of only a thousand or two, as if she still has over eight thousand years of lifespan left. In fact, she may still not be able to successfully break through to the Earth Immortal realm.
If one can cultivate to become a Human Immortal, they must be among the most talented of the talented.
Those who can cultivate to the Earth Immortal realm, besides being among the most talented of the talented, also need enormous luck, wisdom, and perseverance.
It can be said that among ten thousand Human Immortals, perhaps only a few can cultivate to become Earth Immortals.
This is evident that the Earth Immortal realm holds great significance for the Human Immortal realm.
Chen Yun is quite ordinary, with no change in his attitude compared to before.
He smiled and nodded, "Yes, Senior Jingchen, I have fortunately broken through to the Earth Immortal realm."
Jingchen Senior sighed with envy, "I previously heard Master Chen say that you were only in your mid-seventies and had successfully cultivated to the Earth Immortal realm. Furthermore, you almost attained the true body of Amitabha Buddha. I believe that in the future, you will certainly achieve the highest attainment of a celestial being, becoming one of the most sacred among those who have reached the highest level of this world. As for me, although I am a late-stage Human Immortal, my cultivation to the Earth Immortal realm is still far off. Alas."
The feeling of envy that made her sigh involuntarily.
There was someone else who thought the same way: Niu Dali.
He nodded in agreement silently over there, agreeing with the words of Jingchen Senior.
Chen Yun comforted, "Senior Jingchen, please don't be in a hurry. This cultivation cultivates the heart. If your heart reaches a certain level, your cultivation will naturally follow suit. Moreover, the Buddhist cultivation does not limit you to a single life; not achieving the Earth Immortal realm in this life does not mean that you will not achieve it in your next life."
Upon hearing this, Jingchen Senior suddenly understood and knelt down, her hands together in prayer, bowing deeply while reciting the Buddha's name, "Namo Amida Buddha. Master Chen's profound teachings have enlightened me here."
Chen Yun waved his hand, "Senior Jingchen, you are too polite."
At this moment, Jingchen Senior asked with slight confusion, "Master Chen and Mr. Niu, why are you here? Are you here to save me specifically?"
Chen Yun laughed very sincerely, "I came here originally to gather some spiritual roots of the universe, and just happened to see that you were encountering a little trouble. So, I came quickly."
Jingchen Senior was too smart to quickly say, "Are you here to take Forgotten Agony and Soul Grass?"
She had previously mentioned the Forgotten Agony and Soul Grass, suggesting she found it here. Guessing Chen Yun's purpose was not very surprising.
Chen Yun nodded.
Jingchen Senior pointed forward and said, "I once picked the Forgotten Agony and Soul Grass in the deepest part of the canyon. This time, I wanted to see if I could pick up a few more. Little did I expect to encounter the unique-horned Golden Spirit beast, nearly losing my life."
Upon reaching this point, she expressed self-awareness, "Since you, Master Chen, have saved my life this time, the Forgotten Agony and Soul Grass should naturally be yours. I won't pick it up anymore."
Niu Dali agreed with Jingchen Senior's words. Since Chen Yun had saved the other's life, there was no reason to share the earthly and celestial roots.
Who would have thought that Chen Yun was very generous, saying, "I previously observed that there were five or six mature Forgotten Agony and Soul Grass plants here. I only need one to refine the Dan, and the rest of you can share them."
Jingchen Senior was taken aback by Chen Yun's generosity, and for a moment, a hint of sentiment shone in her eyes.
She didn't hesitate to say, "Master Chen, I only need one more. Since you are willing to let go, let us exchange with you."
Niu Dali followed, saying, "I only need one. In the future, when I reach the late-stage of Human Immortal realm, I may use this thing to try and break through to the Earth Immortal realm. Master Chen, you are familiar with what I have on hand. It may not be worth much to you. However, I have hidden some treasures outside. Once we leave the Moon and Sun Trough Tianlong after this time, I will……"
Chen Yun interrupted, "Niu Brother, we had already agreed to split everything we explore. Now that you're saying this, it's like putting me in an unfair position. Don't talk more. Since both of you only need one plant, just take it and don't mention any exchange."
Jingchen Senior originally wanted to say something else, but seeing Chen Yun's resolute expression, she had to change the words that were about to come out, "Very well, great kindness doesn't need to be thanked. If you have any matters in the future, please let me know. I will certainly do my best to help."
Niu Dali said, "So do I."
Chen Yun replied with a few polite words.
Soon, he and Jingchen Senior and Niu Dali walked together into the deep part of the canyon.
In a relatively dark and damp place, they harvested the critical Forgotten Agony and Soul Grass for the Huashen Soup.
So far, the Huashen Soup is only missing one herb, the Huilin Chi Fruit!
Standing in the dark area, Chen Yun's eyes slightly flashed, thinking to himself, "The Huashen Soup only needs the Huilin Chi Fruit to be complete. The 'Cutting Immortal Flask' only lacks the Red Bird Fire Essence, Phoenix Feathers of Chongming Bird, and Chao Xu Qi."
All of these are located in the southern basin, where the Phoenix and Chongming Bird descendants guard them.
Chen Yun has not yet encountered these two super spirit beasts. Previously, he used his omniscient ability to sense them, and although he was able to perceive the appearance of the two super spirit beasts, they quickly noticed him and blocked his perception, so he doesn't know exactly how powerful these two super spirit beasts are.
If they were just at the initial stage of Earth Immortal realm, he could easily defeat them.
However, if they were at the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm, he might have a chance of defeating one of the super spirit beasts alone.
Facing two of them, it would be very difficult to win.
That is from the perspective of discussing their own hard power.
In fact, he still had some treasure items, such as "Ten Thousand Family Lanterns."
Therefore, Chen Yun felt that as long as the strength of these two super spirit beasts did not exceed the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm, he would be completely capable of dealing with them solo.
"If their strength exceeds the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm, then it will be troublesome."
Chen Yun knew that once the two super spirit beasts surpassed the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm, it would be impossible to defeat even one of them solely relying on his own capabilities.
As for treasured items, there's no guarantee that they would hit their target.
Therefore, he definitely cannot go on an adventure to challenge those two super spirit beasts at the moment.
Moreover, Chen Yun is a man who honors his promises with a thousand dollars.
Since he had promised Yan Feng to go together, he certainly wouldn't go alone to seize the treasure just because he had the ability to do so.
As the situation is not known to them, they wouldn't be aware of the news that the golden scissors or axes will soon appear.
Even if they have cultivated to the Earth Immortal realm, able to sense the southern basin, they still cannot obtain information about the Golden Scissors and Golden Axe.
Hm, these two treasured items may be too powerful.
Anyway, after Chen Yun broke through to the Earth Immortal realm.
I still can't feel the location where I am.
He plans to wait for Yan Feng to finish his business, and then go to the southern basin together.
At that time, whether we can obtain the Golden Scissors and Golden Axe or not, we must definitely obtain the Huilin Chi Fruit, Red Bird Fire Essence, Phoenix Feathers of Chongming Bird, and Chao Xu Qi.
In fact, in order to obtain these things, it is basically equivalent to getting the Golden Scissors and Golden Axe.
Because the Red Bird Fire Essence can only be found on the descendants of the Phoenix, and the same goes for the feathers of the Chongming Bird.
In order to obtain these excellent materials for refining weapons, the only way is to defeat the descendants of the Red Bird and Chongming Bird.
Just then, beside him, Jingchen Senior asked, "Master Chen, where are you going next?"
Chen Yun glanced at the side.
Thinking back to Jingchen Senior's purpose of entering the Moon and Sun Trough Tianlong this time, it was also to obtain the Golden Scissors and Golden Axe.
After a moment's consideration, he decided to be honest with the other party and also discuss how to divide it.
After all, there are only two treasured items, the Golden Axe and the Golden Scissors.
Chen Yun, Yan Feng, and Jingchen Senior have three people, and it's hard to divide it.
As for Niu Dali, he never expressed the intention to obtain the Golden Axe and Golden Scissors from the beginning, so he naturally does not participate in the discussion of distribution.
Moreover, Niu Dali is not qualified to participate in such a level of battle.
There is no investment, why should others allow him to distribute the ownership of the divine treasures?
Chen Yun may agree.
This does not mean that Jingchen Senior and Yan Feng will also agree.
After all, the person's hard-earned territory, how can others enjoy its fruit?
Thinking about it, Chen Yun said, "I was originally going to settle down for Brother Niu first, and then together with Yan Feng, the cultivator friend, head to the basin in the southwest."
He did not say more.
Jingchen Senior immediately understood what he meant and nodded gently, sighing, "I did not expect that Chen Zhenren also wanted to go to that side. From your words, it seems you have discussed it with Yan Feng and will go together. To be honest, I also wanted to go there. However, since Chen Zhenren will accompany Yan Feng, I won't overstep my boundaries and won't go."
Chen Yun felt somewhat surprised.
He had originally intended to discuss the distribution of the treasured items with Jingchen Senior.
He had never expected that the other party would give up so easily upon hearing that he was going to go.
Chen Yun gave it some thought and realized what was going on.
Jingchen Senior's actions so far have demonstrated that he is a person who is relatively generous.
She knows that her strength is not on par with his, and since there are only two treasure items, in order not to harm the relationship and to avoid direct confrontation with him, she willingly gave up this opportunity.
"Too bad," Chen Yun helplessly shook his head, "If I hadn't discussed it with Yan Feng, I could have gone together with you, Senior. I'm truly sorry."
Jingchen Senior smiled freely and said, "The treasures may be good, but they cannot compare to improving one's own cultivation. Moreover, I was actually hesitant whether to go or not, as the area over there is too dangerous. Knowing that you will go with Yan Feng together has helped me make my decision and save myself from the risk of going there."
Niu Dali noticed that Jingchen Senior had mentioned life-threatening danger.
He immediately realized that the southern basin was home to incredibly powerful spirit beasts.
He knew that he couldn't participate in such a high-level battle, so he didn't speak up.
Chen Yun was just about to say something.
Suddenly, Jingchen Senior added, "Chen Zhenren, although we have only met twice, we have become good friends. I must remind you here that there are two super spirit beasts guarding the southern basin."
Chen Yun nodded and said, "Yan Feng mentioned this to me before."
Jingchen Senior asked, "Did he tell you how strong these two super spirit beasts are?"
"Yes, he did say so, but he doesn't actually know how strong these two super spirit beasts are either."
Chen Yun recalled Yan Feng's words and said, "Yan Feng said that these two super spirit beasts are the weakest at least equivalent to the initial stage of Earth Immortal realm, and the strongest could be comparable to the peak of Earth Immortal realm."
"I feel that he still knows quite a bit less." Jingchen Senior slightly shook her head and voluntarily revealed, "My mentor once engaged in combat with one of these super spirit beasts in the past, and later suffered injuries and became entombed. That should have been about a thousand years ago, but that Red Bird descendant super spirit beast was comparable to the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm at the time. Now, a thousand years have passed, and I believe that this Red Bird descendant super spirit beast has very likely grown in strength to be comparable to the later stages of Earth Immortal realm. Of course, it's also possible that its strength has not grown significantly because such super spirit beasts have a longer growth cycle, and their strength may not show significant improvement within a few thousand years."
Hm?
A thousand years ago, the Red Bird descendant super spirit beast was at the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm?
Chen Yun felt a bit of trouble, "And what about the Chongming Bird descendant?"
Niu Dali also looked towards Jingchen Senior's face.
Jingchen Senior said, "As for the strength of the Chongming Bird descendant, I don't know. However, since it can be on par with the Red Bird descendant and coexist with it in a place, its strength must be very close. That is to say, it must be at least the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm, and it may even be stronger."
At least two super spirit beasts guarding the treasured items at the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm?
Niu Dali was secretly amazed.
Chen Yun wasn't as exaggerated, but his eyebrows were still furrowed.
He had previously analyzed that the chances of winning against two super spirit beasts at the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm were very low.
Although Yan Feng can temporarily increase his cultivation using secret methods and reach the level of Earth Immortal realm, he is still not enough against a super spirit beast at the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm.
Ultimately, the most likely scenario is that I would be facing two super spirit beasts.
"If they are at the middle stage of Earth Immortal realm, I still have a fighting chance."
Chen Yun continued to ponder, "But if they have grown to be comparable to the later stages of Earth Immortal realm after a thousand years, what should I do?"
"Illuminated Thousands of Families" might indeed help me exterminate the spirit beasts.
The problem is, it's just a possibility; it's not guaranteed to work.
Chen Yun felt that in order to accompany Yan Feng in traveling to the southwest basin in a few months, he needed to strengthen his own combat strength.
There are only a few ways to enhance one's combat power.
First, improve one's own cultivation level and realm.
Do not think about that.
He had just broken through to the Earth Immortal realm.
The elixir of transformation lacks one ingredient.
To significantly improve one's cultivation level can be said to be daydreams.
So, the only option is to rely on the second and third points.
The second point is about treasure items.
I have already prepared "Illuminated Thousands of Families," so it's fine not to search for other ones.
As for the third point...
Chen Yun mused to himself, "It seems I need to re-immerse myself in the 'Tao Te Ching of Evading and Allying with the Heavens' and see if I can gain insight into another powerful law of power within a few months."
This is the only method that can significantly enhance my combat power within a few months.
