Chapter 497 - Chapter 497: Chapter 193: The Purpose of Regional Division (2/2)
“The Longevity Life-Extension Elixir is an ancient recipe passed down from antiquity, a seventh-grade elixir medicine that is extremely rare. It is normal that Lin Daoyou has not seen it,”
“The Longevity Life-Extension Elixir’s effect of increasing one’s lifespan is tenfold that of the Lifespan Extension Pill.”
“However, now the main ingredient, Longevity Grass, for crafting the Longevity Life-Extension Elixir is nearly extinct, and even the recipe itself has been almost lost to time, which is why very few are aware of it.”
“No wonder…” Lin Jing nodded.
……
“Additionally…”
After explaining the Longevity Life-Extension Elixir to Lin Jing, Xue Yilin continued,
“The reason we are certain that the mysterious cultivator in the Devouring Spirit Blood Realm is Li Mingwu actually involves another factor…”
As he spoke, Xue Yilin glanced towards Bai Yi…
Seeing this, Bai Yi took out an ancient-looking scroll and threw it to Lin Jing.
“This scroll was found in a secret vault left by Li Mingwu; it records the evil sacrificial technique he used. You can take a look…”
Lin Jing caught the ancient-looking scroll and opened it carefully, then began to read intently.
…
…
After a while, Lin Jing lifted his head, suddenly saying,
“So that’s how it is…”
Inside the scroll was the exact sacrificial rite Li Mingwu had used in the Devouring Spirit Blood Realm.
It required the Golden Cores of a thousand Golden Core Cultivators, melted together to craft a single Blood Elixir, which after consumption, could help one break through to a realm above Divinity Transformation.
As for what lay beyond the realm of Divinity Transformation, the scroll did not specify.
Following that.
Lin Jing rolled the scroll back up and handed it to Bai Yi.
Bai Yi gestured with his hand, and the scroll flew back into his possession.
He then continued to speak,
“From the cultivators who were deceived into the Devouring Spirit Blood Realm, I learned that in a bid for self-rescue, they summoned the Heavenly Tribulation, disrupting Li Mingwu’s plan, and Li Mingwu was heavily injured trying to stop the tribulation.”
“Even though he once consumed a Longevity Life-Extension Elixir, I estimate it was at most of superior quality. After so many years, I suspect he is still on the verge of his life’s end.”
“Therefore…”
“Li Mingwu must have thought of using that evil sacrificial technique to attempt a breakthrough in his realm.”
“And now that his plan has failed and he has been injured by the Heavenly Tribulation, recovery will be extremely difficult.”
Bai Yi paused for a moment, then continued,
“To my knowledge, Li Mingwu had previously found an ancient cave hidden away by a great power within the Thousand Islands Domain. That cave may contain methods to heal, and Li Mingwu is very likely to head there.”
“Opening that cave requires a person who has cultivated the Five Elements Cultivation Technique. This is exactly why I asked Xue Yilin to invite you here, to help us open that cave.”
After listening, Lin Jing then asked,
“May I know where this cave is located?”
Bai Yi shook his head and said,
“I don’t know…”
“The location of that cave, only Li Mingwu knows.”
As soon as Bai Yi finished speaking, Xue Yilin addressed Lin Jing,
“Lin Daoyou, do you know why there is a regional power division conference this time?”
Lin Jing shook his head and then said,
“Please enlighten me, Xue Daoyou…”
Xue Yilin nodded and said,
“The division of the three major islands’ territories is actually to set up a surveillance array that can cover the entire Thousand Islands Domain, to monitor all unusual activities within it.”
“Additionally…”
“It is also to keep an eye on the actions of Li Mingwu.”
“When Li Mingwu attempts to open the cave, it will inevitably cause a special fluctuation in spiritual power. As soon as any such fluctuations arise, they cannot escape the surveillance of the formation.”
“At that time, we will be able to locate that cave through the formation.”
“However, constructing this large formation is quite costly, and at each critical point of the formation, the presence of at least one Nascent Soul Cultivator is required to oversee it.”
“Hence, there is this regional power division conference.”
