320 Primordial Soul Pearl (1/2)
The so-called Primordial Soul Pearl was an energy mass agglomerated from the last primitive strength of the primordial soul. It was made by the immortal cultivators with profound cultivation before they died.
Every Primordial Soul Pearl represented an immortal cultivator who was once a strong practitioner. At the same time, it represented the immortal cultivator's heritage. If one was fortunate enough to get the recognition of the Primordial Soul Pearl, he could gain the inheritance of the Primordial Soul Pearl's owner. He would then be handsomely blessed, and his Cultivation would skyrocket. He would surely have high achievements in his journey of cultivating immortality.
It was said that only immortal cultivators in the Supreme Profundity realm or above were qualified to agglomerate a Primordial Soul Pearl and continue their heritage through it. However, Supreme Profundity realm immortal cultivators were like gods on Earth. Even in large sects like the Divine Pill Sect, they were people with sect elder status. They were not common in the Immortal Cultivation world.
Since Supreme Profundity realm immortal cultivators were rare, naturally the Primordial Soul Pearls were even more rare. One would possibly only encounter them once in a lifetime, if that. But now, there were thousands to millions of Primordial Soul Pearls before Mo Wen, too many to be counted. They covered the whole sky.
It was too stunning! Perhaps Gong Biluo and Jun Wulei, who didn't understand what a Primordial Soul Pearl was, would not feel anything, but if any immortal cultivator came here—even the Divine Pill Sect leader—they would most likely be shocked.
There were so many Primordial Soul Pearls in this palace. It meant there were thousands to millions of powerful strong practitioners who had fallen in this place. Exactly what happened in this mysterious forbidden land back then?
Mo Wen knew that this forbidden land had most likely been a war zone in ancient times, but he had never thought that the war would be so horrifying, involving so many powerful people.
Common immortal cultivators could cultivate primordial souls. As for what a primordial soul was, Mo Wen had no idea, because he never had one. Based on his understanding, it was most likely the sublimation of the soul, or the sublimation of the will. In the Immortal Cultivation world, only those who could cultivate primordial souls were considered real immortal cultivators.
However, being able to cultivate a primordial soul didn't mean that one could agglomerate a Primordial Soul Pearl. Those who could agglomerate Primordial Soul Pearls were definitely people with super powerful primordial souls. Only immortal cultivators in the Supreme Profundity realm or higher could do so. Therefore, one could imagine the shock that Mo Wen had when there were so many Primordial Soul Pearls found in the palace.
At the same time, it proved that not only did the Earth have immortal cultivators back then, but that they were numerous, too. They were comparable to that of his previous life.
”Primordial Soul Pearl? What's that?” Gong Biluo stared at Mo Wen quizzically. She was rather curious about things that could shock Mo Wen.
”It's hard to explain.” Mo Wen smiled wryly. He, too, only knew a little about the Primordial Soul Pearl. How could he explain it to Gong Biluo? However, even though the origin of the Primordial Soul Pearl was somewhat morbid, they were harmless, so they didn't have to worry much.
”It's fine if you don't want to tell.” Gong Biluo snorted. She was only curious about something once in a blue moon, but it figured that Mo Wen didn't want to tell her.
”Those clouds of light are called Primordial Soul Pearls. They are good stuff. One could even say that they are peerless treasures. However, not everyone can have them,” Mo Wen said, feeling funny. The look he had when he gazed at the Primordial Soul Pearls reflected a look of irresistible, burning desire.
Primordial Soul Pearls! In the Immortal Cultivation world they would all be absolute treasures. If one could obtain the inheritance in the Primordial Soul Pearl, it was luck that would go against the will of heaven.
Regrettably, when each Primordial Soul Pearl appeared, the master of the Primordial Soul Pearl would also set conditions for inheritance. Only those who met those conditions could possibly obtain the Primordial Soul Pearl's inheritance.
Although the Primordial Soul Pearls here numbered in the tens of thousands, they would not necessarily consider them. After all, the senior experts who could solidify Primordial Soul Pearls had high expectations for their inheritors. The few of them present would not necessarily be within the senior experts' sights.
So although Mo Wen was burning with desire, he did not hope too much for anything to happen. He was aware of his own conditions. Almost no Primordial Soul Pearl master would choose an ancient martial art practitioner to inherit their mantle.
”I see.” Gong Biluo nodded. She did not concern herself too much with the absolute treasures that Mo Wen mentioned. She originally did not understand much about Primordial Soul Pearls. At the same time, she also knew full well that there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world. So regarding the benefits that Mo Wen had mentioned, she did not desire them. She would just go with the flow.
”Right now, I am not thinking about some treasure. I just want to find a way to get out of this creepy place.” Jun Wulei glanced at Mo Wen and Gong Biluo, laughing bitterly. If he had known that such a thing would have happened, he absolutely would not have taken the risk and joined the two pieces of the map together.
Now that they had been sent to a creepy place without any aid, whether they could make it out of there alive was a problem.
Mo Wen could not bother with Jun Wulei. If he hadn't come over to search for treasure, would all these things have happened? However, now was not the time to talk about it. Since they were there, they could only think of ways to get out. They couldn't just wait around for death, right?
