Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1078 - 524: The Wrath of the Anomalies, Fate’s Change Once Again
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
Upon sensing this message, Jiang Fan brimmed with deep satisfaction.
Clearly, he had effortlessly overcome this tribulation, ensuring no lingering threats remained.
"Looks like I can’t slay all these demon cultivators and demons right away."
"I’ll keep them locked in the Ice Prison for the time being."
"Inside the Ice Prison, they have no escape route whatsoever."
"This spot is perfect for holding demons captive."
Jiang Fan rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
He grew more impressed by the Ice Prison’s formidable power.
Had the Void Realm possessed such an Ice Prison before, there’d have been no need to seal demons across various locations.
It could’ve just tossed all those demons into the Ice Prison to deal with them.
Thus, even if these demons resurrect later, they’d remain trapped inside.
This makes it among the finest locations for handling those undying demons.
"Yet, eerie forces have also infiltrated the Ice Prison."
"Therefore, control over the Ice Prison must never slip into the eerie forces’ grasp."
"If it does, it’ll spell massive disaster for the Mortal World’s inhabitants."
"I figure the eerie forces realize this too, explaining their desperate attempts to breach the Ice Prison."
A chill flickered in Jiang Fan’s gaze.
The Ice Prison’s significance was far greater than he’d imagined.
It would prove a vital ace in combating the demon catastrophe.
Should the eerie forces claim this ace, catastrophe would ensue.
However, the Prison Elder’s strength was overwhelmingly superior.
At present, Jiang Fan couldn’t rival the Prison Elder.
For now, he’d feign ignorance and bide his time with careful schemes.
He required ample time to swiftly boost his cultivation.
"Gained a Second-Grade opportunity?"
"It’s concealed inside Secret Realm No. 5."
"Time to head back there."
With that thought, Jiang Fan plunged the Heaven-Collecting Gourd Talisman deep into the Ice Prison’s soil.
He was confident these demon cultivators and ancient demons couldn’t break free from this Immortal Realm Spirit Talisman’s seal.
Even if they somehow did, escaping the Ice Prison itself remained impossible.
Thus, he felt completely at ease.
Swish!
Jiang Fan activated the Gate of the Void once more, teleporting back to Secret Realm No. 5 in the Void Realm’s East Continent.
He scanned the area, noting the ground had split wide open long ago.
Numerous buried treasures had surfaced from the depths.
One among them was a Life Source Stone.
In a blur of motion, he snatched up the Life Source Stone.
Second-Grade opportunity.
This was unmistakably the Second-Grade opportunity predicted by the destiny hints.
Without the recent battle, those underground treasures might never have appeared.
Moreover, sealed by a Life Source Stone, it hailed from the Ancient Era.
Its extraordinary value was plain to see.
"Here’s a vial of ancient elixir."
"Called the Earth Core Soul Tempering Pill."
"The key ingredient is the ten-thousand-year-old spirit herb, Earth Core Flame Mushroom."
"Taking it refines the body, aids body cultivators greatly, and purifies marrow and sinews."
"Plus, this bottle holds three Earth Core Soul Tempering Pills."
Jiang Fan’s eyes widened sharply.
Spending some Luck Points, he instantly discerned the elixir’s identity.
To his surprise, it was a priceless Ancient Era treasure pill.
Such elixirs were incredibly rare, even back in the Ancient Era.
No amount of Spirit Stones could guarantee acquiring one.
Without doubt, this ranked as at least a Tier Six elixir, brimming with potent medicinal efficacy.
"Devouring this vial could propel my Soaring Snake Technique even further."
"It might reach the Middle Stage of Tier Six at minimum."
"What a bountiful gain this time!"
Jiang Fan stroked his chin, buzzing with exhilaration.
Though demons had overrun the Primordial Ruins for billions of years.
Precisely for that reason, outsiders couldn’t ransack its treasures fully.
Should he fully reclaim the Primordial Ruins, every Ancient Era relic there would become his alone.
Boom~~
Suddenly, new information surged into the core of his consciousness sea.
"The wonder of destiny resides here—even the smallest choice can forge divergent paths. By sealing the demon cultivators of the Primordial Demon Sect and the Six-winged Tiger Demon instead of killing them,
you’ve thrown the eerie forces lurking deep in the Void Realm into confusion. Unsure of what happened, they’ve burned their origin essence to resurrect the surviving ancient demons in the Primordial Ruins for a full probe."
"Destiny offers you guidance."
"Destiny Hint One: The eerie forces intend to revive the ancient demons in the Primordial Ruins—a boon for you, since demonic corruption has long tainted the Primordial Ruins.
Purifying its lands and Spiritual Qi would demand vast effort and time from you alone. But with these ancient demons revived, they’ll consume the whole Primordial Ruins, demon corpses, and monsters alike, absorbing all demonic qi. This effectively cleanses the Primordial Ruins indirectly.
If you opt not to halt their revival, the Primordial Ruins will emerge fully purified once they awaken."
"Destiny Hint Two: Still, purification of the Primordial Ruins doesn’t erase the revived ancient demons. Should they escape, they’ll devastate the entire Void Realm, slaughtering countless lives.
What’s more, fresh from revival, their might eclipses typical Void Refining Cultivators. Charging them directly means certain death by their claws."
