The next day at 5:00 AM.

Ji An walked out of the Grotto Mansion refreshed; after opening the Fire Mansion, he felt more energetic.

Last night, his Divine Sense was severely depleted, but after a night’s rest, he surprisingly recovered seventy to eighty percent.

Red clouds formed under his feet, and he rode the Fire Element Cloud to the Jade Leaf Mulberry Field.

After consuming six strands of Wood-eating Qi, he flew back to the grotto at the mountainside and brewed a strong cup of Jade Dew Golden Bud Tea.

His Divine Sense was too severely depleted and needed recovery, or it would affect his Qi Eating state.

In just over half an hour the sun would rise; the time to absorb Sunrise Qi was short, only a few breaths right after the sun rose could it be absorbed.

Afraid to miss the timing, he needed to wait early at the top of Red Flame Peak.

Although both are Bing Fire, Sunrise Fire and Noon Fire are different.

Sunrise Fire contains a hint of growth potential, considered to be the first strand of Fire Element Qi converted from Wood Element Qi.

The tea color gradually faded, the Spirit Tea lost its taste; Ji An tilted his head back and drank the last brew like water, even chewing and swallowing the tea leaves.

He walked out of the grotto, rode the cloud to the mountaintop, and positioned himself to await the sunrise.

At this time, the sky began to brighten, and in the forests, birds had already left their nests, chirping loudly, seeking insects within the woods.

In the eastern sky, the clouds arranged like rows of golden fish scales.

Suddenly, a red sun leaped out from the mountains, its rays instantly spanning a vast distance to illuminate Red Flame Peak.

Ji An immediately began, exhaling into sound, “Ha!”

Behind him, heat rose from the mountain’s core.

The turbid air in the heart was expelled, and his body instinctively inhaled.

Luckily, he immediately sensed a warm stream entering his throat.

His heart lit up; the Sunrise Qi entered, manifesting as a golden hue mixed with red.

However, his good fortune seemed exhausted; he didn’t absorb a second strand of Sunrise Qi.

Ji An wasn’t disappointed; successfully absorbing one strand was a great comfort.

He rode the cloud descending the mountain, just as golden-red mist rose from the volcanic passage.

The Fire Element Cloud landed under the Ghost Moon Cyan Jade Tree; Ji An glanced at several Spirit Trees, a proud smile on his lips.

This area planted with six special Spirit Wood, three tea trees had all reached Tier Two, and a Longevity Peach tree had also reached Tier Two Lower Grade.

The Blood Soul Xuan Yuan Tree and Bodhi Tree were undergoing transformation, and once complete, they too would advance to Tier Two.

Once the Profound Yuan Fruit reached a medicinal age of over five hundred years, the main ingredient for the Profound Origin Rebuilding Pill would be secured.

Ji An sat down cross-legged, still having half an hour for Cultivation.

…

Exiting the Teleportation Array, Ji An arrived at the neighboring Grotto Mansion:

“Greetings, Master, I have joyous news to share with you; yesterday I successfully opened the Fire Element Divine Mansion!”

Master’s face was becoming increasingly wrinkled, and so was the white hair on his head; Ji An could sense the decaying aura emanating from him.

While his body was still robust, Ji An hoped there was enough time to report more good news.

Ge Ying’s eyes widened, her pupils rapidly contracting:

“You breakthrough to the Second Transformation of the Chao Origin Stage!?”

She suddenly felt it was somewhat ridiculous; if it really was a breakthrough, the speed was too fast, right!

“Uh,” Ji An scratched his head, smiling wryly:

“Master’s expectations are too high; I can’t meet them.

I merely spare some time each day to open the Fire Element Divine Mansion, thus completing it in advance.”

Typically, when Cultivators open the Divine Mansions, they strictly follow the sequence, opening the second one after the first reaches Perfection, and so on.

Ge Ying exhaled a long breath and said:

“You scared me just now; if you had really breakthrough to the Second Transformation of the Chao Origin Stage, it would make me seriously doubt myself.”

A disciple finding breakthrough during the Chao Origin Stage as simple as slicing vegetables while she struggled just to reach the Ninth-Layer Foundation Establishment still seemed far off.

Ji An chuckled a few times, bid farewell and left.

He rode the Fire Element Cloud to the Agricultural Hall, seeing a few disciples behind the mountain cutting Azure Dragon Wood.

A familiar and plump cultivator was loudly shouting:

“Hurry up, we must cut down five Middle Grade Azure Dragon Wood today.”

Jia Yu shouted, then lifted his head to take a swig from his Wine Gourd.

He appeared bold and heroic, the wine dripping down his graying beard.

He glanced unintentionally and couldn’t help but gape, forgetting to swallow, choking heavily on the wine.

“Cough, cough…” Jia Yu bent over and coughed violently.

Ji An landed beside him, patting the other’s back firmly.

“Senior Brother, what’s up with you, a Chao Origin Stage Cultivator getting choked by wine, embarrassing.”

Jia Yu extended his hand, gasping for air with his mouth agape.

He coughed a few more times, urgently asking:

“You broke through to the Second Transformation of Chao Origin Realm?”

He had been startled just now, leading to the choking.

Ji An waved his hand and said:

“Impossible, just opened the Fire Mansion early, wasn’t that to control the Fire Element Cloud!”

Jia Yu was speechless; opening the Divine Mansion in sequence, it took him decades to open the Pulmonary Golden Mansion.

The other speaks lightly about opening the mansion early, who would believe it? It made him impulsively want to choke the other.

“Junior Brother, that’s foolish; opening the mansion early wastes time, just to control the Fire Element Cloud isn’t worth it.

Moreover, do you have enough Divine Sense for Qi Eating after opening so many?”

He paused, then asked:

“How many strands of Qi can you consume each day now?”

“In normal circumstances, it’s eleven strands; in extreme conditions, I can consume fourteen strands.”

Ji An answered, knowing that if he quickly replenished the consumed Divine Sense, he could reach fourteen strands.

Jia Yu’s eyes widened, and he remained silent for a long time.

The other party only broke through to the Chao Origin Stage six years ago, yet the amount of Qi he can consume daily matches what Jia Yu could consume after twenty years of breakthrough.

The gap between them was as vast as clouds and mud.

“Let’s just say I didn’t say anything just now.”

He sighed deeply, suddenly feeling the onset of old age in his heart.

Jia Yu looked at Ji An with eyes as if seeing a monster and said:

“The amount of Qi you consume in normal circumstances is only two strands less than Junior Brother Li Haoran.”

Ji An raised an eyebrow slightly, showing a hint of surprise on his face.

With his spiritual strength, his Qi consumption was still less than Li Haoran’s. How monstrous was the other’s talent?

He knew very well that Senior Brother Li couldn’t have as many means to nourish the Spirit Soul as he did, being able to consume so much Qi solely due to his innate talent.

At this moment, the sound of a Dragon’s Roar rang out.

The sound wasn’t loud, yet it delivered a powerful psychological impact.

Ji An quickly turned his head; the sound was similar to the Dragon’s Roar when he performed the Azure Dragon Shocking Skill, but it was more domineering.

Several disciples cutting down Spirit Wood sat on the ground, terror evident on their faces.

Jia Yu dashed towards the scene like a nimble fat bird:

“What happened? What was that sound just now?”

Ji An then flew over and heard one disciple tremblingly say:

“Replying to Junior Martial Uncle, the sound came from the Spirit Wood! Is it turning into a demon?”

Their tone was filled with indescribable fear, clearly understanding how difficult and terrifying it would be if Spirit Plants turned demonic.

“Think it over; if the Spirit Wood turned demonic, you all would be gone long ago!

Not to mention you, even we, Junior Martial Uncle Ji, wouldn’t be spared either.”

Jia Yu spat; for a Spirit Plant to turn demonic, it would take a millennium or longer.

The Azure Dragon Wood on Ningcui Cliff had only been planted for about thirty years; if it could turn demonic, the Cultivation Realm would have long ceased to exist.

He turned his head to ask, “Junior Brother, have you ever heard such a sound while casting spells here?”

Ji An frowned:

“The Spirit Wood has never made a sound; though, when I cast spells, a similar sound might appear.”

The disciples said the sound came from the Spirit Wood, but he had no idea about the cause, utterly clueless.

Jia Yu’s gaze turned heavy as he said:

“Let me try.”

He began cutting with a Magical Artifact; after a dozen breaths, no sound came out.

He discarded the Magical Artifact and said:

“You all try now.”

Several disciples controlled Magical Artifacts and diligently started cutting. Before long, they felled the Spirit Wood.

Ji An looked at the wood grain that became visible, his pupils slightly shrinking.

Besides the growth rings representing the tree’s age, there were also cyan patterns hidden within, resembling sparse scales.

Jia Yu also saw the patterns, scratching his head vigorously:

“Junior Brother Ji, what’s the situation here?”

The strongest Spirit Farmer in the Western Continent was here. Who else to ask if not him?

You ask me, who do I ask? Ji An bared his teeth, shaking his head, feeling equally at a loss.

“Hmm, I’m not sure of the reason either.”

He delved his Divine Sense into the Spirit Wood, carefully sensing it for a while, then said:

“Compared to other Azure Dragon Wood I’ve come into contact with, this one contains a more abundant Wood Element Original Force, and it gives off a very pure feeling.

Though I’ve planted many Tier Two Middle Grade Azure Dragon Woods, it’s my first time seeing felled Spiritual Materials.”

The Middle Grade Azure Dragon Wood on Red Flame Peak had never been felled; whether it had the same situation, he couldn’t say.

Jia Yu also delved his Divine Sense into the Spirit Wood, “The Tier Two Middle Grade Azure Dragon Wood in the Treasure Pavilion is of much lesser quality than this one.”

After some thought, he found another Middle Grade Azure Dragon Wood:

“Come over here and cut down this one.”

“Yes,” a few Foundation Establishment disciples surrounded the Spirit Wood, controlling Magical Artifacts to cut it down.

Moments later, the vast Dragon’s Roar rang out again, and the disciples immediately retreated a few steps in fright.

This time, Ji An and Jia Yu clearly heard it, exchanging glances; indeed, the sound came from within the Spirit Wood.

The impact of the sound was extremely strong, captivating, as if a Divine Beast Dragon was indeed howling in the sky.

“It’s like we’ve seen a ghost!”

Jia Yu only felt that the situation became baffling; he performed the Golden Light Technique, with golden Moon Blades constantly cutting toward the Spirit Wood.

When the Spirit Wood fell, everyone again saw the cyan fish scale patterns.

Ji An found it incredible; he found a Tier Two Middle Grade Azure Dragon Wood and said:

“Senior Brother, this time you do the cutting entirely.”

Jia Yu acknowledged and, without using a Magical Artifact, continued casting the Golden Light Technique.

After a moment, the vast Dragon’s Roar sounded once more.

Jia Yu paused his actions and continued casting the Golden Light Technique until the Azure Dragon Wood was felled, not hearing the Spirit Wood emit sound a second time.

“I had been closely observing the internal situation of the Spirit Wood. The sound would only occur when my spell cut into the core of the Spirit Wood.

Junior Brother, you find a Tier Two Middle Grade Azure Dragon Wood to cut.”
