Clan Cultivation: I Transmigrated With My Smartphone Chapter 972 - 724: Purple Mansion Order, Death Witch

Ye Feixue paused, a thoughtful expression on her face.

Lu Xuanji inquired, "What exactly is the Purple Mansion Order?"

Ye Feixue explained, "Long ago, there existed an Immortal King known as the Purple Mansion Immortal King. Even within the vast Immortal Realm, he held a position of immense prestige. For reasons that remain unclear, this Immortal King met his demise. However, he did leave behind a domain within the Immortal Realm, a place called Purple Mansion Heaven."

"To gain entry into Purple Mansion Heaven, possession of the Purple Mansion Order is a prerequisite."

"According to ancient tales, eighteen Purple Mansion Orders were disseminated throughout the Immortal Realm, scattered to various locations. Some were acquired by exceptionally gifted individuals, others by formidable powerhouses, and a significant portion vanished without a trace. Yet, based on my senses, there is a distinct possibility that one of these Purple Mansion Orders is located within the Cave Mansion before us!"

"Even if only one Purple Mansion Order is present, its pursuit is entirely worthwhile! As for the other artifacts found within this Cave Mansion, they are of a relatively common nature. After all, the Purple Mansion Immortal King was, in his time, merely a Tribulation Crossing Cultivator. His cultivation and foundation were limited, and consequently, the treasures he left behind are also constrained. One should not harbor excessively high expectations!"

"If you manage to obtain the Purple Mansion Order, it would undoubtedly be a tremendous boon. However, if you do not, it is not a cause for great concern, provided you remain safe!"

Lu Xuanji acknowledged with a nod, stating, "I understand!"

The meticulous planning and prolonged waiting undertaken by the Undying Demon Monarch, all for the acquisition of the Purple Mansion Order, underscored its profound value.

Such a valuable opportunity was not to be easily relinquished.

Ye Feixue concurred with a nod, offering no further comment. Instead, she initiated a Secret Technique, her palm tracing patterns in the air. These celestial markings flickered and materialized into deadly assaults, unleashing devastating waves that targeted the Purple Mansion Grotto Heaven.

The Purple Mansion Grotto Heaven trembled, emitting a resonant hum as the surrounding protective array sprang to life. A purplish-gold luminescence erupted upwards, adorned with intricate runes that pulsed with energy. Enveloped in an aura of Immortal Qi, the array unleashed a torrent of destructive light in retaliation.

Hissing noises filled the air as the energies clashed, annihilating and neutralizing one another.

Ye Feixue channeled more Magical Power, amplifying the potency of the celestial traces to systematically dismantle the array's defenses. She had to carefully regulate the intensity of her assault throughout this process. An overly potent strike could inflict significant damage upon the Cave Mansion itself, necessitating extreme caution.

Concurrently, she called out, "Fellow Daoist, it is time for your contribution!"

The Undying Demon Monarch responded with a nod, "As you command, fellow Daoist."

With his left hand, he unleashed a surge of Magical Power, which coalesced into a colossal palm. Its radiant glow pulsed as it slammed towards the Grotto Heaven.

Boom, boom, boom!

The surrounding array fractured under the assault, and chaotic energy tore through the void, scattering outwards.

The two immensely powerful cultivators unleashed their respective Magical Powers, each demonstrating supreme Secret Skills. They pounded against the periphery of the Grotto Heaven. The Grotto Heaven reverberated, unleashing formidable might in a desperate counterattack. However, this retaliatory force gradually waned until a breach was finally torn open.

"Quick, enter! I can only maintain this for ten breaths at most!"

"Hurry, I can only sustain it for eight breaths!"

The two voices echoed in unison.

In that fleeting moment, a flicker of light illuminated the entrance as Shi Yan was the first to pass through.

Following him, several cultivators at the Ninth-Layer Tribulation Crossing stage entered.

Ten breaths might seem like an extremely short duration.

Yet, for cultivators engaged in Tribulation Crossing, it was a remarkably long interval, sufficient for achieving numerous critical objectives.

After the ten breaths elapsed and the opening sealed, hundreds of cultivators had already gained entry.

Lu Xuanji, blending seamlessly with the throng, also entered the Cave Mansion.

...

The fabric of the void warped, and following the newly formed crevice, Lu Xuanji stepped into the Cave Mansion.

Upon crossing the threshold, he was immediately enveloped by an intense concentration of Immortal Qi permeating the surroundings. The Immortal Qi within this place was exceptionally abundant, appearing like a dense mist. With a single inhale, Lu Xuanji experienced an overwhelming sense of comfort.

"Such potent Immortal Qi..."

Lu Xuanji marveled inwardly.

In the nascent stages of cultivating immortality, practitioners commence with Qi Cultivation, drawing in Spiritual Qi and converting it into Magical Power. At this juncture, the Spiritual Qi primarily consists of Postnatal Spiritual Qi. However, as one's cultivation progressively advances towards the Divinity Transformation Realm, the process involves absorbing Innate Spiritual Qi to fortify the body, initiating a qualitative metamorphosis of life essence.

Subsequent to achieving the Refining Void stage, individuals gain the ability to perceive the unseen dimensions of the void. By utilizing their Primordial Spirit, they can draw down Immortal Qi from the heavens and commence the process of self-refinement.

Yet, the availability of Immortal Qi in such quantities remains exceedingly scarce.

Extracting Immortal Qi with a supreme Immortal Artifact dramatically boosts one's cultivation speed, yielding even more astonishing results.

Throughout history, the most prestigious Sacred Lands have universally possessed Immortal Artifacts, not merely for their immense combat prowess but also for their unparalleled capacity to rapidly draw forth Immortal Qi. This subtle acceleration of cultivation speed offers immeasurable advantages.

Many cultivators in the Void Refining stage have historically encountered stagnation or painfully slow progression, largely attributed to an insufficient supply of Immortal Qi for tempering their bodies and a consequent lack of profound depth in their cultivation.

The astonishing feat of reaching the Fifth Layer of Tribulation Crossing within a mere ten thousand years is directly attributable to the Bell of Death's continuous extraction of Immortal Qi. This sustained influx of high-level energy has ensured an unceasing cultivation progress.

While the path of immortality ostensibly hinges on lofty ideals like a powerful Daoxin, exceptional talent, and an unyielding will, these elements perform best when supported by a robust material foundation.

The supreme expressions of these idealistic pursuits are predominantly enabled by a solid material base, abundant resources, and a consistent, unhindered supply.

Be it wealth, allies, cultivation techniques, or territory—resources consistently hold the foremost position in importance.
