Chapter 2429: Chapter 35: Acquiring the Yi Wood Immortal Manual Again! Shouzhe Visits the Heavenly Abode of the Sea of Clouds

Otherwise, if it were just the two Sacred Clans competing against each other, the final auction price barely breaking a hundred would be considered good.

However, Wang Shouzhe was indifferent to it all, since the money was “gifted” by Cai Youdao, essentially a free acquisition of an Immortal Scripture.

Yet, Wang Shouzhe didn’t want to use the Chaos Spirit Stone for exchange just yet, so he asked Yun Tiange to go pay the bill.

In an instant, the hundred and fifty-three Immortal Spirit Stones collected from the auction were consumed, along with an additional fifteen Immortal Spirit Stones.

But this was a good thing; buying an Immortal Scripture with money was the optimal solution for Wang Shouzhe.

Money, after all, is meant to be spent; once it’s gone, you continue to farm and strive to produce more.

In contrast, obtaining an Immortal Scripture through other means is troublesome, and there’s the risk of inadvertently encountering other troubles, outweighing the benefits.

The representatives of the Emperor Tianrui clan and the Sacred Tianrui Si Family, after losing the Immortal Scripture, didn’t become angry but rather congratulated Wang Shouzhe and politely invited him to visit their homes.

Immortal Scriptures are merely the threshold to cultivating a True Immortal. Truly cultivating a True Immortal requires vast resources throughout the cultivation process.

Just take Wang Licui’s attendant Si Wuchou, a standard True Immortal Seed, for example. He consumes three top quality Spirit Stones annually, which amounts to three Immortal Spirit every hundred years, and thirty Immortal Spirit Stones every thousand years.

Even an ordinary True Immortal Seed requires at least two to three thousand years of cultivation to reach the True Immortal Realm, and the more advanced the cultivation, the greater the consumption. At the Advanced Transcendent Void Realm, even at peak, the consumption is terrifying, and various auxiliary Dan medicines are needed to assist during the breakthrough to True Immortal.

Overall, for a True Immortal Seed to cultivate from the Transcendent Void Realm to True Immortal, it requires approximately eighty to ninety Immortal Spirit Stones worth of additional resources.

Furthermore, when a True Immortal Seed inherits an Immortal Scripture at the Divine Power Territory and his aptitude reaches the Son of Heaven level, he can enhance his bloodline with the “Sacred Pill.” However, the regular price of around thirty Immortal Spirit Stone of Sacred Pill is also a huge additional cost, and the saved cultivation time can hardly compensate for the expense.

Therefore, ordinary True Immortal Seeds generally don’t consume Sacred Pills; only Saint Qingyuan and Water Moon Saintess, those with higher goals, consume Sacred Pills at the Divine Power Territory stage to enhance their bloodline a little more.

Thus, in the long cultivation process after becoming a True Immortal, these Saint Sons and Saintesses can fully leverage the effects of the Sacred Pill.

This is the origin of the Sacred Pill’s name, “Sacred,” naturally aiming for the Great Luo Sacred Supreme.

For colossal entities like Immortal Clans and Sacred Clans, talent cultivation and purchasing Immortal Scriptures and Sacred Pills require meticulous calculation and planning. Even the Powerful Immortal Clan won’t recklessly spend a fortune on Immortal Spirit Stones just to buy an Immortal Scripture; instead, they’ll consider their family’s actual financial situation and support capabilities. It’s perfectly normal for them to lose to Wang Shouzhe.

After attending the auction, Wang Shouzhe slightly socialized before embarking once again on his wandering journey.

This time, he decided to visit the Sea of Clouds Heavenly Abode and check on Lici.

…

At the same time.

A major event occurred at Wang family Main Residence.

The family’s direct long line, Wang Baosheng, only ten years old, had surprisingly run away from home.

Before leaving, he left three letters: one for his parents and aunt collectively, stating he was going on a “disguised visit,” exploring the vast world and local customs, and asking them not to worry.

The second letter was addressed to the Entertainment Division he painstakingly founded, mainly instructing Ouyang Nanyan and Wang Youjun, his left and right arms, to continue growing the Entertainment Division.

The third letter was written to his teacher Shen Tu Shihe, first congratulating her on recently passing the research student’s exam, encouraging her to strive further, and even attaching her research direction plan list, hoping that when he returns from his journey, her studies have shown some success.

Then, he mysteriously disappeared.

Baosheng’s disappearance naturally caused a stir in the family and sparked many rumors.

But, no matter how clever he is, he’s merely a ten-year-old child.

Just within five hours, despite all the preparations to sneak out of the Wang family, Wang Baosheng was noticed by the ever-present Group Immortal Palace organization managed by Wang Fugui.

However, Wang Fugui didn’t hurry to bring Wang Baosheng back.

After some minor family deliberation, they unanimously felt that having Baosheng away provided some peaceful days.

Wang Fugui also enjoyed the rare quiet, so he let Baosheng have his fun outside for a while.

When he was ten years old, he had already been sent to the Immortal Dynasty by the Old Ancestor. Now that Baosheng is ten, it’s time for him to see the world and broaden his horizons.

But for safety, he secretly invited the Nine-tail Demon King and Aunt Rong, two powerful Void Realm level experts, to bring some secret treasures and protect him.

…

Some time later.

Sacred Domain Sea of Clouds Heavenly Abode.

Xuan Qing Immortal Pavilion.

This Immortal Pavilion was specially built for Saint Qingyuan when he joined, a construction commissioned by Cloud Sea Sacred Supreme. The style is vibrant and elegant, clear and transcendent, even the pavilion has many pine and cypress trees planted that stay green through all seasons, aligning perfectly with Saint Qingyuan’s temperament and style.

The Immortal Pavilions within Sea of Clouds Heavenly Abode are exceptionally unique; their main material is the specialty of Sea of Clouds Heavenly Abode—Cloud Stone. This Cloud Stone is light and only requires slight refining, then employing floating formations, they can effortlessly float in the sky, supplemented by defensive arrays for sturdiness.

Cloud Stone serves as the foundation for constructing Immortal Pavilions, creating countless Immortal Pavilions within Sea of Clouds Heavenly Abode.

Cloud Stone is also one of the specialties of Sea of Clouds Heavenly Abode.

Nowadays, numerous Immortal Clan aerial Immortal Pavilions use this material.

However, the past ten millennia have seen a decline in Cloud Stone production, prompting Sea of Clouds Heavenly Abode to take a sustainable development approach, rarely mining Cloud Stone unless necessary.

The last excavation was to build an Immortal Pavilion for Wang Licui, and the one before that was to build Saint Qingyuan’s Immortal Pavilion.

The Cloud Sea Sacred Supreme’s favor for both is apparent.

At this moment.

Saint Qingyuan was standing on the balcony high up in Xuan Qing Immortal Pavilion, overlooking the clouds below, with a peaceful expression and eyes showing no discernible emotion, pondering about something.

The winds blow by in the heights, making his blue robes sway gracefully, his demeanor resembling a serene lake at the snow peak or the pine and bamboo on a high mountain with an admirable spirit.

Perceiving the Heavenly Abode has been quieter since Licui left might be his illusion.

Though Cloud Sea Sacred Supreme hasn’t been active in management for long, he’s busy managing all the affairs within the Heavenly Abode, not exactly idle.

Yet usually, once he’s done with these trivial matters and has rare spare time, he’d go visit junior sister Licui, bringing some specially sourced treats and chatting casually.

Now with junior sister Licui away, after handling complex affairs in the Heavenly Abode, he finds himself unsure of what to do.

Despite his revered status, as Saint, most in the Heavenly Abode are his subordinates, and even those he bonded with early on treat him cautiously, respectful but not close.

Only junior sister Licui was unafraid of him, lively and innocent; with her presence, the mood was always lighter.

Sadly, with the long journey to Taixu Dao Palace, communication becomes challenging, and it’s uncertain when junior sister Licui will return.

He’s gathered quite a collection of fine gifts to give her but hasn’t had the chance to deliver them.

It was during Saint Qingyuan’s reminiscent contemplation when a disciple stationed at the balcony suddenly approached with some news, reporting in haste: “Your Highness, the East Pole Gate sent a message saying a young lord by the name ’Wang Shouzhe’ is here to visit you, claiming to be junior Licui’s Fourth Uncle.”

“Wang Shouzhe?”

Saint Qingyuan was slightly taken aback.

He’s heard the name Wang Shouzhe, as junior sister Licui frequently mentioned this Fourth Uncle, and he’s been curious about the uncle she often speaks of.

To know, Cloud Sea Heavenly Abode never disclosed Licui’s background externally, with outsiders usually assuming she belongs to Si Family bloodline, making it impossible to know her specific family situation or her Fourth Uncle’s name.

Could it be that Licui’s family has indeed come?
