Eternal Life: I Can Control My Essence Qi
Chapter 361 - 264: Earth Milk Bathing Body, Sudden Upheaval (Part 2)
However, even with this being the case, the Path of the Three Spirits holds unimaginable value for him; it is something he must have, and he must delve deeply into it.
In this way, the "Three Spirits Sensing Technique" he possesses is completely insufficient.
Although this book was written by Demonic Cultivator Ancestors, analyzing the Path of the Three Spirits from a high vantage point, and can be considered a gem in its writing, it ultimately serves only as an introductory text and does not delve much into specific cultivation techniques, far from satisfying his needs.
Therefore, Zhang Yao made this bold request, as the opportunity only presents itself once; missing it would mean it’s gone forever.
"This..."
Wuhe was genuinely surprised this time, giving Zhang Yao a few strange looks before speaking:
"If you want the cultivation technique of the Path of the Three Spirits, that’s no problem, after all, it’s not some top secret."
"But there aren’t many, there’s only one. In my entire Wujin Tribe, everyone, regardless of gender, age, or status, cultivates the same technique."
At this point, he paused before continuing:
"As for the trade... how about this, we exchange techniques for techniques, how about it?"
"Exchange techniques for techniques?"
Zhang Yao was slightly taken aback but quickly responded, agreeing readily:
"No problem!"
The Wujin Tribe continuously produces Soul Tamers, sending them to the Surface World, and is now interested in Qi Refining Immortal Dao techniques; they’re certainly planning something.
But whatever their goal is, it has nothing to do with Zhang Yao, who only wants to obtain the technique of the Wujin Tribe.
Soon:
The two happily completed the exchange, with Zhang Yao trading a complete Top level Technique "Benefiting All Living Beings Great Technique" in exchange for the Wujin Tribe’s "Celestial Crow Crying Marsh Skill."
After the transaction was completed, Zhang Yao didn’t have time to closely examine the technique in his hands before a tribal warrior came to report that the Nether Abyss Ancestor had already completed the ritual of removing the Black Death Beast and was waiting for Zhang Yao at the Earth Milk Celestial Pool.
"Then there’s no time to lose, let’s go."
Wuhe called out, leading Zhang Yao to the Earth Milk Celestial Pool.
The Earth Milk Celestial Pool was also located at the core of the Wujin Tribe, but it was built within a cliff, deep and unfathomable.
Under Wuhe’s guidance, Zhang Yao passed through several checkpoints before finally reaching the entrance of the Earth Milk Celestial Pool and seeing the Nether Abyss Ancestor once again.
"Daoist friend’s complexion looks good."
Zhang Yao glanced over and gave a compliment.
The Nether Abyss Ancestor at this moment was radiant, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from him, with a sense of triumph.
"Hahaha... Thanks to your great fortune, my body has finally rid itself of the Black Death Beast."
At this point, there was a tinge of wistfulness in his tone:
"This beast has been with me for hundreds of years, sharing both blessings and curses. Without such assistance, it would have been difficult for me to achieve today’s realm."
"But it’s good to have it removed, only by shedding this shackle can I ascend to a higher level."
"Yes."
Zhang Yao nodded slightly, saying:
"What you say is very true, congratulations to you, Daoist friend."
"All right."
Wuhe on the side smiled and interrupted the two’s conversation:
"The two of you have plenty of time in the future to reminisce and reflect."
"Judging by the time, the Magnetic Barrier will close again within two days, and the Earth Milk Bathing Body needs to last for twelve hours, so you two should hurry."
"Alright, thank you, Young Clan Leader."
Zhang Yao responded in agreement, promptly joining the Nether Abyss Ancestor to pass through the heavy stone gate and enter the interior of the Earth Milk Celestial Pool.
Looking around:
The entire Earth Milk Celestial Pool was not very large, only a few square meters, surrounded by stone walls of special material, filled with a soft white glow, milky white mist swirling around, like an ethereal wonderland.
The incomparably pure Spiritual Qi filled the interior of the Earth Milk Celestial Pool, which was filled with the Earth Milk Zhang Yao had seen before, just a glance was enough to captivate the mind.
"Whew!"
Zhang Yao took a deep breath, feeling the unprecedentedly pure Spiritual Qi, with an irrepressible mindset:
"So much Earth Milk... it’s astonishing!"
"Who knows how many years it accumulated to fill an entire pool. Its value cannot even be measured with Spirit Stones!"
A drop of Earth Milk can drive Golden Core Cultivators into a bloody frenzy; how could the First Spiritual Object for Core Formation be ordinary?
But here, there is so much Earth Milk that could be used for bathing; only with the Wujin Tribe’s special means does the ’Earth Milk Bathing Body’ become such a heavenly opportunity!
"Hahahahaha..."
The Nether Abyss Ancestor laughed heartily, filled with joy and excitement, flicking his sleeves to remove his Magic Robe, and directly jumped into the Earth Milk Pool.
"Qingxu, what are you waiting for?"
With that said, he immediately closed his eyes, sitting cross-legged motionless in the pool.
"Gurgle gurgle..."
The moment the Nether Abyss Ancestor entered the Earth Milk Pool, the endless Earth Milk instantly started bubbling, and the Nether Abyss Ancestor’s body trembled slightly, skin rapidly turning red, like a boiled shrimp.
Seeing this, Zhang Yao also quickly removed his Magic Robe and sat down cross-legged in the Earth Milk Pool.
"Boom!"
In an instant, an incomparably vast and pure Spiritual Qi surged from all directions, completely without any need for him to attract or capture it, almost desperately drilling into his body.
"Good heavens!"
Zhang Yao was startled, quickly applying his Cultivation Technique to guide the vast pure Spiritual Qi.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
The methods left behind by the Wujin Tribe began to take effect, with some mysterious force rising in the pool, guiding the pure power of Earth Milk to exert its effects.
Over ninety percent of the Earth Milk’s power began transforming Zhang Yao’s body, gradually enhancing its compatibility with his Spiritual Qi.
The remaining fragmented power was guided and refined by him, circulating through the First Grade Golden Core within his body, and converted into his own Magical Power, driving his Cultivation to rapidly ascend.
Unbeknownst to him:
Zhang Yao was immersed in this state, almost losing awareness of the outside world as time raced by.
......
More than three hours later.
"Buzz..."
A barely perceptible tremor swept across the entire Wujin Tribe.
This tremor was extremely minute, with the vast majority of people entirely unaware, but some high-ranking tribe members with established Cultivation immediately noticed.
"What’s going on?!"
Wuhe, quietly cultivating at home, was suddenly alarmed and showed a look of uncertainty.
"Earth Dragon Turning Over? Doesn’t seem like..."
The Underworld is vast, but it can also experience earthquakes.
The problem is, earthquakes are extremely rare in the domain of the Hundred Countries of Central Plains, even less likely with a source so deep underground capable of affecting the Underworld through Primordial Magnetic Power.
If it were truly a natural calamity like Earth Dragon Turning Over, the commotion wouldn’t be so small, lasting only a moment before disappearing?
"Something doesn’t quite add up!"
Wuhe sharply sensed something amiss, feeling a bit uneasy, he quickly rose and headed to the leader’s hall.
Soon:
He saw his father Wu Luo, seated on the high-backed throne in the hall with a face of contemplation.
"Father!"
After performing a salute, Wuhe approached and straightforwardly asked:
"Father should have noticed the tremor just now, do you know what it’s about?"
"I don’t quite know either."
Wu Luo glanced at him and shook his head.
This answer surprised Wuhe, prompting him to say:
"Even Father doesn’t know?"
In his impression, his father was always an almost omnipotent figure, well-acquainted with the Underworld.
Now, a change occurred right at their doorstep, yet Wu Luo said he didn’t know? This made him feel even more uneasy.
"I’ve already arranged several teams to investigate in different directions, with Elder Wuming personally in charge."
Wu Luo glanced at him, slowly spoke, in a calm tone:
"Be patient, we should soon have results."
"...Alright."
Upon hearing this, Wuhe had no choice but to temporarily put the matter aside.
He did not leave immediately, instead, after pondering for a while, he cautiously asked:
"Father seems to have some guesses or already holds some clues about this change?"
"Hmm?"
Wu Luo raised an eyebrow, maintaining a poker face:
"Why do you say that?"
Wuhe responded candidly:
"I simply feel that Father is somewhat overly calm."
"When facing the unknown, even the most formidable figures would proceed cautiously, yet Father seems entirely untroubled."
"...You are quite perceptive."
A faint hint of a smile appeared on Wu Luo’s face:
"This change might be an opportunity for our Wujin Tribe..."
He said this and motioned with his hand, stopping Wuhe from further inquiries:
"Alright, go now, don’t ask too much."
"When it’s time for you to know, I’ll naturally tell you."
"Take care of those two guests well; that’s your task for now."
Upon hearing this, Wuhe felt helpless, but had no choice, so he respectfully withdrew:
"...Yes, Father."
