Chapter 703: Chapter 664 Taiyin Secret Realm_1

Treasure Yellow Cave.

Fang Xi stood with his hands clasped behind his back, surveying his surroundings with great interest.

After a long time, he finally said to Wang Lingying beside him, "You’ve chosen a good Dongfu, with rich earth energy, suitable for your cultivation method; and below it are several mines, which should produce a good amount of ’Treasure Yellow Jade’ every century, enough to compensate for some cultivation resources."

"The ancestor has an eye like a torch,"

Wang Lingying complimented.

For some reason, even though he had ascended to the Transcendent God realm, he still felt that the ancestor was as unfathomable as ever, which was almost inconceivable.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Bloodline Disk was on the other person, he almost thought the old ancestor had been replaced by someone else.

Little did he know... the essence blood within those bloodline prohibitions and sensory artifacts had long been tampered with by Fang Xi, achieving the effect of passing off a fish eye for a pearl.

Now, no matter how he tested, he would be recognized as the Wang Family Ancestor, dumbfounding these Wang family disciples.

"Heh heh... It’s truly joyous that you ascended to Transcendent God, but are you still blaming the ancestor for the family division back then?"

Fang Xi asked with an implied meaning.

"Your grandson wouldn’t dare!" Wang Lingying’s expression turned solemn.

"Not dare, then you still have..."

Fang Xi smiled slightly, releasing his aura.

An extremely strong magic power spread out, causing the flowers, plants, and trees on the surrounding grassland to grow vigorously.

Wang Lingying, however, turned red-faced and stumbled back three steps: "Transcendent God... late stage!? And such pure Wooden Element Spiritual Power?!"

Wasn’t the ancestor known for primarily cultivating Earth Attribute Skills?

"Back then, this old man always kept a low profile, concealing my cultivation. I was actually close to breaching the late Transcendent God phase but was forced to devise the family division plan due to the Chaos of Mysterious Dark Abyss..."

Fang Xi explained, "Later, after years of secluded cultivation, I finally managed to break through the late Transcendent God bottleneck and began contemplating Returning to Emptiness, hence I also chose to cultivate a set of Five Elements Skills..."

The explanation was indeed very plausible.

Any Transcendent God in their late stage, preparing to break through to the Returning to Emptiness, would at least need to have all Five Elements present.

Choosing to cultivate Five Elements Skills was only to be expected.

"Ancestor, are you trying to break through to Returning to Emptiness?!"

Wang Lingying’s eyes widened.

He had spent who knows how many resources just to break through the bottleneck of Transcendent God, partly relying on serendipity; otherwise, it would have been difficult to progress.

And now, the Wang Family Ancestor was attempting to reach for the Returning to Emptiness realm?

However, after the excitement, Wang Lingying quickly calmed down.

The Wang Family Ancestor had always been the most brilliantly talented individual among the Wang Family; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been the first to ascend to Transcendent God.

Now that he was breaking through to late Transcendent God and plotting for Returning to Emptiness, wasn’t it reasonable?

"The family will definitely support the ancestor with full resources for the breakthrough. If there’s anything you need, please instruct me!"

Wang Lingying bowed deeply, his expression extremely sincere.

Fang Xi observed him for a moment before waving his hand, channeling magic power to help Wang Lingying to his feet: "You have my appreciation..."

This also meant that he had acquired another Transcendent God underling.

Although it was useless in a life-and-death fight, having someone to run errands was still quite nice.

After a pause, Fang Xi asked, "You’ve been struggling in this city for many years; do you have a way to obtain ’Taiyin Jade Crystal’?"

Since plotting to break through to Returning to Emptiness, it was only natural to bring up the two main ingredients for the ’Biyi Breaking Virtual Pill.’

Wang Lingying even assumed that the old ancestor came to practice here specifically because Fairy City produced such material.

In reality, his presence in the city had no significant correlation...

After thinking for a moment, he answered, "In Moon Invitation Immortal City, although the Taiyin Secret Realm opens once every century with some production, it is often bought up or used internally as soon as it appears... it’s hard to find it outside. If the ancestor intends to refine an Ancient Golden Pill, it’s best to personally enter the Secret Realm..."

"Taiyin Secret Realm?"

Fang Xi sighed.

It was indeed fortunate to know the source for such top-tier resources.

To expect to directly purchase them was simply wishful thinking.

"Never mind, tell me all about the Taiyin Secret Realm,"

he commanded.

"Yes!" Wang Lingying recalled information before respectfully speaking, "The entrance to this ’Taiyin Secret Realm’ is located within Moon Invitation Immortal City, usually heavily guarded with even Returning to Emptiness Cultivators personally overseeing it, ensuring strict security. Only those granted entry can explore the Secret Realm when it opens every century... And the Secret Realm is incredibly perilous, but the rewards are substantial. All cultivators who enter are expelled after three months due to the need for the Secret Realm to recuperate and avoid overexploitation..."

Listening to Wang Lingying finish, Fang Xi had already made up his mind.

...

Eight years later.

The grand auction.

"One hundred top-quality Spirit Stones! Congratulations to the cultivator in box number three of the ’heaven’ class for acquiring the entry to ’Taiyin Secret Realm’..."

The auctioneer announced with an animated voice.

Inside ’heaven’ box number three, Fang Xi’s expression remained unchanged as he sat on a cushion, while Wang Lingying’s eyes were full of shock.

At the auction, he realized what it meant to spend money like water!

What was more unexpected was that the ancestor seemed to have an abundance of Spirit Stones. Had the ancestor uncovered a treasury from a predecessor’s Dongfu on a fortunate whim? Or was the Wang family’s treasury a façade, and there existed a secret treasure house controlled only by the ancestor?

"Now that the entry is secured..."

Fang Xi spoke indifferently, "After you leave, inquire about those who intend to venture into the Taiyin Secret Realm in ten years. I should go and make their acquaintance one by one."
