Chapter 1849 The Spy on the Side of the Abyss of the Primordial Demon
"Reporting to the Immortal Venerable, in the Ruins Sea Market, eighth-grade spiritual herbs have always been a hard currency with stable prices, and the variety is much richer than in our Nine Domains."
"According to the message sent back by the Demon Embryo from the Abyss of Beginning Demons, a small group of eighth-order spiritual herbs was discovered on the edge of the area controlled by Old Oil Head and others. It is suspected that there is a hidden eighth-order immortal vein, but it is guarded by powerful demons. They are planning to wipe it out."
"In addition, there are some special underground auctions in the Abyss of Beginning Demons, where eighth-tier materials, or even... suspected ninth-tier materials, occasionally appear, but they all require rare equivalents to exchange for them."
A glint flashed in Zhang Xuan's eyes, and he asked again, "How many eighth-grade spiritual herbs do I still have in stock in my Nine Domains?"
"There are 372 complete eighth-order spiritual herbs. Some of them were captured from the last great war, and some were obtained through trade between the Ruins Sea Market and the Abyss of Beginning Demons over the past few hundred years. For the past few hundred years, you, Immortal Venerable, have been in seclusion, and no one has been able to refine eighth-order spiritual pills, so these spiritual herbs have been sealed away."
“Three hundred and seventy-two plants…” Zhang Xuan murmured, his eyes growing brighter and brighter. “That’s enough. Send the order to open the highest-level alchemy room… No, no need, I’ll refine them myself.”
The Buddha King of the Western Paradise clasped his hands in prayer: "I will obey the Immortal's instructions."
Several days later, in the core of the Immortal Gourd Realm, in an absolutely forbidden area that had been temporarily designated.
Zhang Xuan hovered in the air, with the illusory image of a thousand-foot-tall ferry appearing and disappearing behind him.
Before him, the fragrance of medicine filled the air, and the rosy light spread, almost transforming into tangible spiritual clouds.
"The Cycle of Reincarnation, open! Chaos is the furnace, all paths are the fire, refine!"
Behind him, the illusory image of the ferry suddenly lit up, its heart chakra, which harmonized yin and yang and all laws, projecting a chaotic light domain that enveloped all the spiritual herbs.
Within the realm of light, countless tiny paths flowed.
Those incredibly rare eighth-tier spiritual herbs melted and purified at an astonishing speed in the Chaos Light Domain.
The entire process was smooth and natural, full of a profound and simple beauty, completely devoid of the mundane and cumbersome aspects of ordinary alchemy.
"This is the power of a Golden Immortal!"
Zhang Xuan felt a surge of heroic spirit.
When he was a True Immortal, he was able to refine eighth-grade spiritual medicines by using the Immortal Path.
Now that he has advanced to the Golden Immortal realm, even without the aid of the Immortal Path, refining eighth-grade spiritual medicines is still a piece of cake for him.
Just three months!
When the chaotic light domain dissipated, what appeared in the air were more than three hundred eighth-order spirit pills, each the size of a dragon's eye and naturally formed with mysterious pill patterns!
The gathering of crimson clouds actually triggered a small-scale surge of spiritual energy from heaven and earth!
"It's not over yet." Zhang Xuan's thoughts sank into his sea of consciousness. "Immortal Path, begin! Immortal Ants, temper yourselves!"
The Taiqing Creation Diagram within the Immortal Path contains over three hundred spiritual pills.
Those immortal ants nourished by the Daoist essence of the Golden Immortal were incredibly efficient, and the tempered light threads they spewed from their mouthparts were even more condensed.
Another month has passed.
When all the pills reappeared, each one was covered with a layer of pale golden elixir coating containing starlight.
The medicinal fragrance was subtle, but the Daoist aura it exuded was even more refined and powerful!
More than three hundred eighth-order, first-stage golden pills!
Zhang Xuan waved his hand and collected most of them, leaving behind two hundred of the best quality eighth-order golden pills with attributes that best suited him and Jiao'er. He gave the other one hundred or so golden pills to the Western Heaven Buddha King.
“Brother-in-law, divide these remaining hundred or so golden pills into two batches.”
"Immediately send the first batch of old foxes to the Abyss of Beginning Demons and tell them not to be stingy. Use these Golden Cores to exchange for the Abyss of Beginning Demons' eighth-tier spiritual herbs, special immortal mines, and... gather as much information as possible about that hidden eighth-tier immortal vein!"
"The second batch will be sent to Xuhai Market and given to Clan Chief Yu Huai, so that he can exchange it for the various high-level resources we need, especially the eighth-grade spiritual herbs from the Xuanxu Great Realm!"
"Yes!" The Buddha King of the Western Paradise answered solemnly, his eyes filled with excitement.
Zhang Xuan continued, "Furthermore, since the Nine Domains are now one, let's establish the Xuan Tian Merit Pavilion, which allows access to all nine domains. Those who make outstanding daily contributions or make breakthroughs in various arts can exchange their merits for corresponding resources, including seventh-grade pills, time spent cultivating in secret realms, and the right to access high-level cultivation techniques."
"Furthermore, in my name, I bestow upon the core talents of the Immortal Gourd Realm and the meritorious members of the Zhang Clan an eighth-rank... well, a bottle of top-grade seventh-rank spiritual pills, and grant them permission to enter the secret realm of the Path of Heaven for one year of study."
The orders were issued one after another, clear and forceful.
Soon after, encouraging news began to arrive.
From the Abyss of Beginning Demons, the old fox sent a message: "Golden pills are in short supply. We have already exchanged them for over a hundred eighth-tier spiritual herbs, as well as various rare demonic metals and Yin-Yang crystal cores. We have also identified a suspected unclaimed small eighth-tier immortal vein hidden vein area, and are currently verifying it!"
From the Xuhai Market, Zhang Yuhuai sent a message: "The Golden Core has been exchanged for a large number of eighth-grade spiritual herbs from the Xuanxu Great Realm, as well as Immortal Essence Stones and Void Crystal Cores, enough to sustain the Great Array and the Puppet Legion for a hundred years! Furthermore, it has been discovered in the Nine Domains Boundary Membrane that, in addition to the existing cultivators of the Nine Divine Domains and the Xuanxu Great Realm, there are also high-level cultivators from other Great Domains, but this still needs further verification!"
The hidden eighth-order immortal vein of the Primordial Demon Abyss, and the existence of high-level cultivators from other major domains within the nine divine domains.
This is all fantastic good news.
However, all of these remain to be verified.
When the first batch of eighth-grade spiritual herbs was delivered to Zhang Xuan, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Resource external circulation successfully launched!
The immense pressure on the nine divine realms to support two Golden Immortals was suddenly relieved.
Furthermore, Zhang Xuan began to have the ability to transfer some high-level resources downwards to cultivate mid-level personnel and consolidate the foundation.
Now that there are two trade routes, the Ruins Sea Market and the Abyss of Beginning Demons, everything is developing in a positive direction.
In particular, over 90% of the high-grade spiritual materials, including eighth-grade spiritual herbs, were transported from the Abyss of Beginning Demons.
It's just a pity that he has now advanced to the Golden Immortal realm and cannot teleport there.
He called Hei Zi over.
"Father."
Hei Zi had not spoken to his father alone for hundreds of years, and his voice carried a trace of long-lost excitement.
"Over the past few hundred years, many things must have happened in the Abyss of Beginning Demons, especially regarding that hidden eighth-order immortal vein..."
"Yes, the father can learn about the specific situation through the Dao fetus channel."
Zhang Xuan closed his eyes and focused all his mind into the Dao Embryo passage.
In an instant, a series of memories, personally experienced by Old Oil Head, You Wuyai, Ninth-Rank Ancient Whale, Yu Xuan, and others, and sealed in a special way, flooded into Zhang Xuan's heart.
The weight and turmoil of hundreds of years flowed swiftly through the mind of a golden immortal.
The scene suddenly unfolds, revealing a sky a mix of crimson and pale green, with the earth covered in jagged ravines and bizarre, demonic plants.
This is the border between Bloodbone Plains and Crimson Flame Ridge, the outer wasteland of the Graybone Alliance's lair run by Old Oil Head.
For hundreds of years, the old foxes have been secretly exploring the surrounding buffer zones and known dangerous areas, looking for resource points that can be developed covertly.
In this outer wasteland, it is rumored that the remnants of an ancient demon who died in battle linger, and several groups of explorers who entered have gone mad or disappeared.
