Chapter 1098: Chapter 822: Officially Obtaining a Golden Immortal-Level Trump Card_2

If it falls into the hands of a disciple with outstanding talent, forging a legend of the Saint Realm wouldn’t be impossible—surpassing the blue with indigo might not be out of reach.

Its preciousness is thus apparent.

Li Huowen eyed the item, falling silent for a long moment before he said,

"My cultivation has already reached its limit, taking this item would be of no use to me. I’ll take the Buddha’s bones then. I’ll bring them back to the brothers at the Artifact Academy to see if they can be cleansed and purified to craft an incarnation or something."

When Wang Zijia heard this, he relaxed inwardly and said with slight embarrassment, "Wouldn’t that mean I’m taking too much advantage?"

"The battle was mainly led by you, Fellow Daoist Chi Yang. Without you, who knows if we could have accomplished the task."

Li Huowen waved his hand dismissively and after saying this, he didn’t say more and just collected the Buddha’s bones.

"Then... I’ll accept it without further politeness!"

Seeing this, Wang Zijia ceased the unnecessary pleasantries. He never intended to give up this item. Not only because it was precious, but it also had a terrifying effect for him.

Thus, with a flip of his hand, Wang Zijia also stowed the item away.

At this moment, the only remaining trees crumbled, and the pollution was devoured by Wang Zijia.

The terrifying Flesh Plain had now completely turned into a barren Yellow Sand Land. Though it had been purified to some extent, it... wasn’t truly a problem solved.

Desertification coupled with the residual weak pollution meant it was impossible for it to recover into fertile land, which is why the Sect didn’t manage it.

Everyone looked around, seeing that things were resolved.

Li Huowen bowed to Wang Zijia, saying, "I’m in charge of leading the team to clean up the front lines, there are still many things left unmanaged, and I’m needed to anchor the group. I don’t feel at ease not continuously monitoring this depth. A moment’s carelessness and disciples might perish, so I won’t delay any further!"

Wang Zijia also returned the gesture, replying, "Go ahead with your tasks, Fellow Daoist. I also have missions to run, which haven’t started yet—just got involved in this matter upon arrival."

Li Huowen nodded, saying, "Then let’s catch up back at the Sect. As for the tasks here, let the disciples submit them themselves. Whoever returns first, let’s report the mission completion and repair details to the task department."

"Agreed!" Wang Zijia responded in kind.

After exchanging these words, Li Huowen lingered no longer, transforming into a beam of light, soaring into the sky.

"Parting respects, Martial Uncle Fire Spirit!"

"Farewell, Immortal Majesty Fire Spirit!"

"..."

A group of disciples quietly waiting at the side immediately paid their respects and bid farewell.

Wang Zijia looked at the large crowd of disciples and said to Zhang Zhongjing, "Have you completed your task?"

Zhang Zhongjing nodded, replying, "Yes, Martial Uncle Chi Yang, this realm is now thoroughly cleansed."

"Then go ahead and submit your mission. I’ll accompany you part of the way!" Wang Zijia replied.

"There’s no need to trouble Martial Uncle Chi Yang," said Zhang Zhongjing. "We have no casualties, we can make our own way back."

Wang Zijia didn’t say much more, simply gestured with his hand, and the group of disciples transformed into a Drawing Paper, all disappearing together, reappearing at the edge of the Crystal Barrier System.

Then, Wang Zijia turned his gaze to the remaining teams that had come to support.

"We still have our tasks unfinished, we won’t bother Martial Uncle Chi Yang," said a disciple immediately, with a respectful gesture.

Wang Zijia nodded and amidst the salutations, the disciples departed in all directions, each headed to their respective realms to embark on their tasks.

...

After everyone left, Wang Zijia didn’t immediately depart.

Instead, with a minor use of mana, he burrowed into the Quicksand Land below.

Deep underground, he used mana to construct a temporary Crystal Cave and placed a makeshift Array Disk before finally sitting down to meditate.

Cultivation: Profound Immortal Middle Stage

Dao Cultivation: 6 million years (6 trillion/6 trillion)

Taiji: 29 trillion 439 billion

Checking his cultivation, Wang Zijia calmed his own aura and began to start the process of breakthrough using hand signs.

With his solid foundation that was terrifyingly strong, Wang Zijia found the minor stage breakthroughs extremely casual.

As Wang Zijia circulated his Cultivation Method, his aura fluctuated rapidly.

This breakthrough was more difficult than the previous ones, but it was still relatively easy. In a short moment, Wang Zijia’s body shook.

The aura rapidly ascended, and the Immortal Yuan within fluctuated intensely.

Cultivation: Profound Immortal Late Stage

Dao Cultivation: 6 million years (6 trillion/10 trillion)

His cultivation had now completely entered the Profound Immortal Late Stage.

Feeling the terrifying power within his body, Wang Zijia revealed a satisfied smile.

He wasn’t too far from condensing Dao power and stepping into the Saint Third Realm, to vie for a position in the ruling echelon of Shen Hong.

Divine Powers: Borrowing Pseudo-Spirit’s Path (Nine Grades, Lifebound), Thousand Hand Eating World Demon Likeness (Nine Grades, Lifebound), Formless Entity (Nine Grades, Lifebound), Divine Skill: Information Pupil (Seventh Grade, Lifebound)

Taiji: 29 trillion 439 billion

After looking at his cultivation and Divine Powers again, Wang Zijia didn’t continue to stack his cultivation level.

Instead, he turned his attention to the 7th-grade Divine Power: Information Pupil.

Promotion to golden immortal had a basic prerequisite of pushing at least five Divine Powers to the high order of Nine Grades.

Presently, because he rapidly ascended from Earth Immortal to Profound Immortal, he lagged behind quite a bit. Even maxing his cultivation wouldn’t be of much use.

[Would you like to spend 1.98 trillion value points to upgrade the 7th-grade Divine Power: Information Pupil to the Ninth Grade junior level?]

"Yes!"

Taiji: 9 trillion 639 billion

With the consumption of nearly two trillion value points, Wang Zijia’s mind went blank.

In the next instant, his golden pupils began to flicker with countless Runes, and amidst the flashing golden light, the entire world in front of him became strange.
