Chapter 967: Cold Spiritual Marrow

The Huatian Palace Headquarters were still in the same place, as were the Four Major Palace Halls. However, Mo Wen now understood that there was more to the Four Major Palace Halls than met the eye. If the veterans of the Senate were at the middle level of the Huatian Palace, then the Executors of the Four Major Palace Halls were at the bottom level.

The Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermillion Bird, and the Black Tortoise represented the four Guardian Divine Beasts that protected the four cardinal directions of the heavens and the earth. Naming the Huatian Palace’s Four Major Palace Halls after the Four Major Divine Beasts was metaphorical and was a way to show that the Huatian Palace encompassed the entire world.

However, up until now, Mo Wen did not know how many executors there were among the Four Major Palace Halls. The Vermillion Bird Palace Hall had the smallest number of executors, yet their numbers were still likely to be terrifying.

After all, even when the main space and the various large Inner worlds were disregarded, the huge Peng Lai Immortal Realm required an astronomical number of bottom level executors. They were in charge of the day to day running of the Huatian Palace. Like ants, they each had their own duties. Mo Wen had been one of these hardworking ants in the beginning. Of course, compared to other executors, Mo Wen was far from hardworking.

“Brother Mo Wen, Head of Parliament Mo is waiting for you at the top of the Senate Peak.”

As they arrived at Headquarters, Ku Ji seemed to have received a message and communicated it to Mo Wen with a smile.

“If my guess is correct, Head of Parliament Mo wants to see you about the matter of the Path of Creation,” Ku Ji said while laughing.

“The Path of Creation?”

A look of surprise flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. Hadn’t Mo Qingge said that he should head to the Path of Creation when he was prepared to break through to the Primordial Soul Realm?

Mo Wen had wanted to head to the Path of Creation and break through to the Primordial Soul Realm in a few months after he had participated in the International Superpowers Competition.

“Brother Mo Wen, you might not know this, but the International Superpowers Competition has already been canceled,” Ku Ji said.

“Canceled? Why?” Mo Wen asked incredulously.

The International Superpowers Competition always took place and had been organized many times. It would not be simply canceled for no reason.

“It is because there will be turmoil in the world soon. I am not at liberty to explain it to you in detail. You’ll find out about it later,” Ku Ji said with a sigh. “That being said, those freaks that I previously mentioned to you put off breaking through to the Primordial Soul Realm because of the International Superpowers Competition. If not, with their capabilities, they would have broken through to the Primordial Soul Realm a long time ago.”

“So that’s why.”

Mo Wen nodded. He’d thought that it was strange. Those geniuses were so incredible but had yet to break through to the Primordial Soul Realm. Mo Wen had only recently reached this stage and could only now think about taking this step. Those geniuses who had cultivated for decades, or even centuries, should have been able to break through before now.

Ku Ji smiled. “Brother Mo Wen, with your abilities, you will certainly reap huge benefits in the Path of Creation. The Path of Creation is also different now. Do you still remember our initial promise?” he asked.

“Of course! We will exchange a Fire Leaving Stone for Cold Spiritual Water,” Mo Wen said pleasantly. He had certainly not forgotten his initial promise to Ku Ji. The level that the Cold Spiritual Water allowed Mo Wen to attain was rather high. Now that he cultivated the Celestial Body and had absorbed large amounts of Source World Vital Qi from the Goddess’ World, the effects of the Cold Spiritual Water were even greater.

“As I expected. Brother Mo is trustworthy. However, that was then, and this is now. In the past, finding a Fire Leaving Stone might have been rather difficult for someone with your abilities. Now, it’s different. With your current level of ability, you should be able to find it easily, as long as you spend some time looking for it. Therefore, we should add some things to our deal.”

Ku Ji’s eyes sparkled as he spoke. The Path of Creation was the holy land for the Huatian Palace to cultivate talent in. There were countless treasures there. For generations, the Huatian Palace had also managed the Path of Creation. The Path of Creation was originally an ancient land in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. Even Tide Changing Realm cultivators would drool over some of the treasures in the Path of Creation.

There were plenty of treasures, but it was not easy to obtain treasures in the Path of Creation. Some people entered the Path of Creation and emerged empty-handed. Whether a person would obtain anything depended on one’s ability. However, Mo Wen was not lacking in ability. Even ordinary Primordial Soul Realm cultivators were no match for him. If such a powerful person entered the Path of Creation, it would be like they were entering a mountain full of treasure. It was also true that the Path of Creation this time around was different. The chance of fateful encounters was several times higher than usual.

“Oh, what other deal does Elder Brother Ku Ji want to make?” Mo Wen understood what Ku Ji meant. He could guess that right now a Fire Leaving Stone would not satisfy Ku Ji’s appetite.

“Brother Mo Wen, I will not be secretive with you. Originally, I only wanted the most common Fire Leaving Stone. But right now, I hope that you can find a Fire Leaving Diamond in the Path of Creation. To be completely honest with you, the Fire Leaving Stone would have been a great help in allowing me to break through to the Tide Changing Realm. An ordinary Fire Leaving Stone would give me around a 40 percent chance of breaking through to the Tide Changing Realm. However, the Fire Leaving Diamond will mean the likelihood of me breaking through are not lower than 70 percent! If you can help me get a Fire Leaving Diamond, I will be eternally grateful.”

Ku Ji spoke solemnly. The Fire Leaving Diamond was too precious and too hard to come by. He had never even dared to think about it before and so had sought an alternative. Being able to get a Fire Leaving Stone would be useful. But right now, the chance of obtaining a Fire Leaving Diamond was right before him. How could he not be excited?

The difficulty of cultivators breaking through to the Tide Changing Realm from the Primordial Soul Realm was no less than the difficulty of a mortal trying to break through to the Primordial Soul Realm. It was even harder.

There were Primordial Soul Realm cultivators everywhere in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. However, how many Tide Changing Realm cultivators were there? Only by transcending to the Tide Changing Realm could one be considered a Peng Lai Immortal Realm Mighty Immortal Cultivator. Those below the Tide Changing Realm were all ants.

Ku Ji had been stuck in the Primordial Soul Realm for too long. He was a renowned strong practitioner at the level of the Primordial Soul Realm. Even in the Senate, he could be ranked among the top fifty. If the 39 Tide Changing Realm veterans were excluded, Ku Ji would be ranked among the top ten Primordial Soul Realm veterans. It could be said that his ability was only below that of Tide Changing Realm practitioners. For him, killing another Primordial Soul Realm practitioner with great attainment was as simple as killing a chicken.

However, when compared to a practitioner at the Tide Changing Realm, Ku Ji still paled into insignificance.

Therefore, the Tide Changing Realm posed a great temptation for a cultivator like him.

“It’s probably not easy to get a Fire Leaving Diamond, is it?”

Mo Wen knew a little about the Fire Leaving Diamond. It was the king among the Fire Leaving Stones. Even 10,000 Fire Leaving Stones might not necessarily be equal to one Fire Leaving Diamond.

“It is rather difficult. However, I know the exact location of the Fire Leaving Diamond. You don’t have to waste time trying to find it.”

The Fire Leaving Diamond was something that could only be encountered by fate. If Mo Wen had to spend time looking for it, the task would be way too challenging. Ku Ji had only made the request because he knew the exact location of a Fire Leaving Diamond. Otherwise, even Ku Ji would not expect Mo Wen to find one for him out of nowhere.

“Oh. So Elder Brother Ku Ji has come prepared,” Mo Wen said with a smile. “However, a bottle of Cold Spiritual Water is not enough to exchange for a Fire Leaving Diamond.”

Acquiring the Fire Leaving Diamond would not be easy. Mo Wen would not stupidly risk his life for something that did not benefit him.

“If I did not have a treasure of equal value to exchange with you, I wouldn’t dare to mention this to Brother Mo Wen. Do you know what I acquired at the same time as I acquired the Cold Spiritual Water?” Ku Ji said with a smile while stroking his beard.

“A bottle of Cold Spiritual Marrow! A full bottle of it.” Ku Ji killed the suspense and went straight to the point.

“In terms of value, my bottle of Cold Spiritual Marrow is most likely more valuable than the Fire Leaving Diamond. It’s also most suitable for Brother Mo to use.”

Ku Ji was very confident and was not at all worried that Mo Wen would reject him.

“Cold Spiritual Marrow!”

Mo Wen drew in a cold breath. He knew quite a lot about Cold Spiritual Marrow. If the Fire Leaving Diamond was the king of the Fire Leaving Stones, then Cold Spiritual Marrow was the king of Cold Spiritual Water. It was even more precious than that. Indeed, Cold Spiritual Marrow was slightly more precious than the Fire Leaving Diamond.

“May I know how Elder Brother Ku Ji got this Cold Spiritual Marrow?” Mo Wen asked curiously. Cold Spiritual Marrow was a rare item, and it posed enormous benefits for anyone who used it. Despite this, Ku Ji was willing to use it in exchange for something else.

“I acquired this Cold Spiritual Marrow by accident. It can be said to be the greatest fateful encounter that I have ever experienced. Unfortunately, I practice the esoteric rule for fire, and I have no talent for the esoteric rule for water. This item is useless to me and will not help me to break through to the Tide Changing Realm. It’s nowhere near as important to me as the Fire Leaving Diamond.”

Cold Spiritual Marrow was indeed precious, but its effects depended on its user. For Ku Ji, the value of a Fire Leaving Diamond was much higher than that of Cold Spiritual Marrow.

“Okay. I agree to the deal,” Mo Wen said decisively. Cold Spiritual Marrow was something that one could only encounter by fate. Since Mo Wen had encountered it, he had no intention of letting go of it easily. Besides, this item was very useful for him when it came to cultivating the Celestial Body. It was the most suitable treasure for Mo Wen.

“Alright! Brother Mo is indeed decisive. This jade inscription has recorded the information about how to acquire the Fire Leaving Diamond. You can read it in detail later. I’ll bring you to Senate Peak first. Let’s not keep Head of Parliament Mo waiting for long.”

Ku Ji took out a jade inscription that he had prepared long beforehand and passed it to Mo Wen, then led him towards Senate Peak.

...

On a cliff behind the Senate Peak, there stood a charming lady. Her clothes were fluttering in the breeze, and she looked like a fairy who was about to leave with the wind.

“Are you looking for me?” Mo Wen stared at the lady before him with a complicated gaze. Indeed, this maiden had helped him a lot in improving his cultivation. If it wasn’t for her, he wouldn’t have had the chance to enter the Goddess’s World and thus wouldn’t have his current achievements.

“You have probably heard that the International Superpowers Competition has been canceled. So, I plan to send you to the Path of Creation,” Mo Qingge said plainly.

“I know. Wise Man Ku Ji has just told me.” Mo Wen nodded.

“The activation of the Path of Creation this time is different from before. It will follow the highest standard. It’s difficult to come across such an opportunity even once in a millennium. Moreover, only five people will enter it. You must seize this opportunity.”

Mo Qingge turned around and looked at Mo Wen. She had witnessed the growth of this youth since the beginning.

“Are the five who will enter the four freaks from the Huatian Palace and me?” A glint of light flashed past Mo Wen’s eyes. He instantly figured out the meaning of her words.

“Indeed. This time, the Path of Creation is activated for the five of you. Besides, the Creation Pool will appear. It is a hard-to-come-by opportunity. Perhaps all five of you will be able to break through to the Primordial Soul Realm in the Creation Pool.”

Mo Qingge nodded. It was indeed easy to converse with an intelligent person who was quick to grasp things.

Mo Wen smiled. Could this be the legendary highest standard? The background of the five of them seemed to represent the highest echelon of the Huatian Palace. At times like this, the Huatian Palace would surely give them the best they had.

“If you can enter the Creation Pool, I hope you can get me a Spiritual Transforming Pearl. I can exchange for treasures of similar value.” Mo Qingge had her hands behind her back. There was a glint of illness on her pale face. It made this woman, who held the position of highest authority in the Huatian Palace, to look a little weak and delicate.
