Chapter 596: Purple Fire Spirit Pill

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After obtaining the Celestial Azure Flower, Chen Fei pondered for a moment, then divided it several times more, throwing each piece of the black stone within the spatial grid into the well, raising his contribution points to seven.

Inside the stone house, Chen Fei sat cross-legged on the ground.

The stone house was extremely crude, with nothing but the four walls and a door; there was nothing else inside.

Chen Fei took out the Celestial Azure Flower from his sleeve and gazed at it, lost in thought. After a moment, he swept his right hand over his Qiankun Bag and stored the Celestial Azure Flower inside.

The sealed Qiankun Bag was now usable at the cost of one contribution point. The reason the market stalls appeared in the Black Divine City was also because of this.

However, the Qiankun Bag could only be used within the confines of the Black Divine City. Once outside the city, it remained sealed. In other words, the Qiankun Bag could be used to store black stones, but only within the city.

At the foot of the mountain, the black stones still had to be carried up by one’s own strength. Only after entering the city could the black stones be placed into the Qiankun Bag.

Chen Fei also threw Ming Zhongjiang and the others’ weapons into the Qiankun Bag. As for their Qiankun Bags, Chen Fei naturally couldn’t unseal them one by one, so he could only hang them from his waist for now.

This time, when purchasing the Celestial Azure Flower from the stall owner, Chen Fei asked many questions. Except for some sensitive ones, the stall owner, seeing that Chen Fei had bought the Celestial Azure Flower, was quite forthcoming with information.

There are many entrances to the Black Divine Domain, most of which are concentrated in the core area of the Boundless Sea. This stall owner actually came from the heart of the Boundless Sea.

There, there were already quite a few people who knew about the Black Divine Domain, but their cultivation level was at least above the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, because those below the Combined Aperture Tempering realm couldn’t enter the Black Divine Domain.

As for the Mountain Sea Realm, the Black Divine Domain also prohibited the entry of these strong individuals.

The emergence of the Black Divine Domain happened in recent years. Because some individuals successfully exited the Black Divine Domain and gained considerable benefits, the reputation of the Black Divine Domain spread through certain channels.

As for the Black Divine Sect, the stall owner didn’t know much, but it was said that the Black Divine Sect had strict recruitment standards. Once one joined, they had the opportunity to learn soul-related techniques.

The cultivation in the Mountain Sea Realm involved the soul, which wasn’t a secret in the heart of the Boundless Sea. However, as Min Yanlu and Chen Fei mentioned earlier, even if there were soul-related techniques, those outside the Mountain Sea Realm couldn’t learn them.

This was a matter of threshold, unrelated to comprehension. If you didn’t understand it, you simply didn’t.

Nevertheless, in the heart of the Boundless Sea, there were still many peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm experts. Especially those at the pinnacle of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, who, by chance, obtained soul-related techniques and relentlessly pursued them.

It was all in hopes of increasing the chance of breaking through to the Mountain Sea Realm. After all, the disparity between the Mountain Sea Realm and the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, whether in lifespan or strength, was immense.

For those at the pinnacle of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, who were just a step away from entering the Mountain Sea Realm, the temptation was obvious.

Meanwhile, in the heart of the Boundless Sea, various soul-related techniques were being dissected, hoping to lower the threshold so that even those in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm could practice them. Even practicing a bit would be immensely beneficial.

And these techniques that allowed the Combined Aperture Tempering realm to slightly touch upon the soul were genuine esoteric skills in the heart of the Boundless Sea, inaccessible to outsiders.

Joining the Black Divine Sect meant obtaining these techniques that allowed the Combined Aperture Tempering realm to touch upon the soul slightly. The stall owner said this with a hint of envy in his eyes.

Although he had not yet reached the peak of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, there was no harm in learning such techniques early.

Chen Fei pondered. Soul-related techniques were indeed tempting, especially those that allowed the Combined Aperture Tempering realm to touch upon the soul. However, unlike others, Chen Fei didn’t see these techniques as indispensable.

Chen Fei was more eager to acquire genuine soul-based techniques from the Mountain Sea Realm, which would streamline the process. With such techniques, the effects Chen Fei would obtain would be tens of times, if not more, greater than those of the simplified versions.

Moreover, the people from the Black Divine Sect gave Chen Fei a strange feeling. If he were to join this sect, he feared there would be unforeseen troubles ahead.

Even regarding the Black Divine Domain, Chen Fei couldn’t shake off a subconscious sense of wariness.

“All the people in the market are collecting contribution points. I could use this opportunity to exchange for more rare spiritual materials, but how do I get down the mountain?1‘

Chen Fei furrowed his brow slightly. Each descent from the mountain meant losing ten years of lifespan. Considering Chen Fei’s age, losing ten years each time felt like a heavy loss.

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Fei turned and walked out of the house, heading towards the Black Divine Temple. If there was anywhere that might have a solution, it would be the exchange list within the Black Divine Temple.

When Chen Fei last glanced at the exchange list, he only skimmed through it briefly. With so many treasures and his contribution points insufficient, examining it closely seemed futile.

Inside the Black Divine Temple, the idol was as usual. Chen Fei approached the well, where the surface of the water reflected the list before his eyes.

Starting from the bottom, Chen Fei examined the list, but after dozens of items, he hadn’t found a solution.

“Is there an exchange to reduce the penalty for descending the mountain?” Chen Fei voiced his thoughts into the well.

The surface of the well rippled slightly, and the exchange list rapidly flashed before settling on an option.

Seeing a response from the well, Chen Fei couldn’t help but feel hopeful. However, upon seeing the contents of the list, his brow furrowed slightly.

“Exchange three descents from the penalty for five contribution points.”

This option, how should I put it, I guess anyone who doesn’t want their lifespan deducted, like Chen Fei, probably wouldn’t choose it upon seeing it.

For ordinary people with flesh and blood, they could only carry one black stone up the mountain at a time, with perhaps a few more if encountering monsters.

Thus, a warrior’s three descents from the mountain might only yield three contribution points. Unless they were like Ming Zhongjiang and the others, deceiving newcomers to obtain weightless black stones.

This approach might potentially yield more, but it could also result in gaining nothing. Perhaps for some, they would rather sacrifice some lifespan than exchange it for contribution points.

Even as time goes on, the deduction of lifespan with each descent will increase.

Choosing this option, Chen Fei wouldn’t lose out. Even though he could only use one spatial grid, three descents would mean thirty contribution points. Thirty contribution points would definitely not be enough to exchange for spiritual treasures.

But whether in the market or in this list, there were already plenty of good things to exchange for.

Previously, Chen Fei saw the teleportation ability on the Azure Dragon Carp, which in the list, only required nine contribution points to obtain this special ability.

It was unclear how the Azure Dragon Carp obtained nine contribution points, perhaps as the stall owner mentioned, the Black Divine Domain seemed to treat monsters with special favor.

Chen Fei reached out his right hand and selected the option on the surface of the well, consuming five contribution points.

Chen Fei didn’t leave immediately, he restored the exchange list and then selected the bottom option.

The Purple Fire Spirit Pill!

A well-known body-forging elixir in the Thousand Feathers Alliance, its value far exceeds that of the Aperture Condensing Pill. In fact, there is a task for this elixir in the Sea Dominion City Task Hall.

However, the difficulty of this task is difficult to complete without being in the late Combined Aperture Tempering realm. Even under stable conditions, only those at the pinnacle of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm can complete it without fail, which indicates the significant value of the Purple Fire Spirit Pill.

Chen Fei’s Suppressing Dragon Elephant was currently advancing towards the Great Completion stage. With the special energy imbued within the spiritual treasure, the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s cultivation speed was quite fast, but Chen Fei didn’t mind making it even faster.

Taking such a Purple Fire Spirit Pill could greatly promote the transformation of Chen Fei’s physique.

As Chen Fei selected the Purple Fire Spirit Pill, consuming one contribution point, he felt a tremor in his sea of consciousness, as if something was happening, but Chen Fei couldn’t quite grasp it.

Before Chen Fei could figure it out, he felt a weight in his right hand. Somehow, a purple pill appeared in the palm of Chen Fei’s hand.

Despite losing all elemental fluctuations due to being sealed, both artifacts and spiritual materials, one could still tell the extraordinary nature of this pill just by its appearance.

Chen Fei stored the Purple Fire Spirit Pill into his Qiankun Bag, furrowing his brow as he pondered. He couldn’t shake off the feeling that he might have overlooked something, yet he couldn’t recall what it was.

From leaving the stone house to obtaining the Purple Fire Spirit Pill, Chen Fei remembered every detail clearly, as if nothing had been forgotten.

However, Chen Fei couldn’t shake off the strange feeling in his heart. The sensation in his sea of consciousness at this moment was similar to when he was previously affected by Gong Shiyan’s secret technique in the Black Divine Sect, where the Dragon Elephant automatically protected its master.

Even though the Dragon Elephant’s automatic protection was forcibly sealed afterward, Chen Fei had enough time to react.

Currently, in Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness, the Dragon Elephant’s protective presence was faintly trembling.

“Panel!”

Chen Fei instinctively summoned his panel, and a transparent interface appeared before his eyes. After scanning the recorded information on it, Chen Fei’s expression couldn’t help but stiffen.

Thousand Feathers Alliance, Sea Dominion City.

At this moment, within the residence of the Primordial Sword Sect, there was a slight commotion. Chen Fei’s clone had quietly dissipated just now without any warning.

Initially, the clone was still teaching martial techniques to the members of the Primordial Sword Sect. However, halfway through, the clone turned into a light spot, stunning everyone in the sect.

“Master, what is happening…?”

The others couldn’t help but look towards Qu Qingsheng. The clone disappeared without a word, could something have happened to Chen Fei?

They had heard from Chen Fei’s clone before that he was currently on a mission. However, since yesterday, the clone’s responses had become sluggish.

It was somewhat reminiscent of when Chen Fei’s clone was not under control, behaving mechanically and only giving simple responses.

At that time, everyone thought it was because the clone was too far away, preventing it from contacting the main body.

But today, the clone had disappeared directly, causing people to speculate.

“Don’t panic. It’s likely that Chen Fei needs the clone, so he recalled it!” Qu Qingsheng said in a deep voice.

However, from Qu Qingsheng’s expression, one could tell that this statement was not only meant for the members of the sect but also for Qu Qingsheng himself.

Considering Chen Fei’s current status within the Primordial Sword Sect, any mishap would greatly affect the entire sect..
