Whether it was because of He Lan’s reminder or not, Chen Jiuge constantly felt as if soone was watching him in the following days. In reality, the True Immortal of the Snow Concubine Hall wasn’t paying any attention to a Divine Storage Realm cultivator like Chen Jiuge, who had suffered a great loss in strength.
After half a month of struggling, Chen Jiuge couldn’t bear it any longer. Looking at the complacent Taiji Deer, his expression shifted repeatedly before he gritted his teeth. I’ll take a risk. It’s too easy for sothing to happen right under other people’s noses.
Although he had decided to offer the Taiji Deer as a tribute, he couldn’t do it imdiately. It was too soon. There needed to be at least several years of buffering, and the quality of this particular Taiji Deer was very average.
It wasn’t certain whether he could break through to the Divine Storage Realm with his Great Divine Power Realm Cultivation. At least a Taiji Deer that had undergone a second mutation was required.
In the following ti, aside from the Pearl Rice he kept for his own consumption, Chen Jiuge entrusted the Qi Gao and Qi Wen brothers with using the rest of his monthly salary of Pearl Rice to purchase black and white deer.
The Myriad Wood Longevity Technique was a Wood Attribute Cultivation Technique imbued with a trace of the Life Dao’s essence, which aligned well with the Dao Chen Jiuge cultivated.
Oddly enough, the Alien Races guarded their Cultivation Techniques very strictly, while the Human Clan seed indifferent about theirs.
Although the Myriad Wood Longevity Technique wasn’t a top-notch technique, it was nevertheless a first-rate and extrely good one. Yet, such a technique had been casually bestowed by Zhu Ying upon an Ascender of unknown origin like himself.
His abundant Mana, after being refined by the Myriad Wood Longevity Technique, had shrunk by nearly another half, making Chen Jiuge wince. At this rate of reduction, it was hard to say if he could even maintain his Divine Storage Realm once his Mana was fully transford.
The milky-white Mana had mostly turned green. A single glance revealed the brimming Vitality it contained.
"A complete transformation should take about half a year," Chen Jiuge said, sowhat worried. "But replenishing my Mana through Cultivation will take a vast amount of ti. It seems I won’t be able to maintain my Divine Storage Realm Cultivation."
His foundation was quite profound, yet even so, he risked a decline in his Realm. The scattered Spiritual Beasts were likely in an even worse state. The Great Divine Power Realm truly wasn’t very useful in the True Realm.
Consider a Snow Concubine who had fallen from favor—even she had a retinue of Divine Storage Realm Forbidden Guards. This showed that, at a minimum, True Monarch Cultivation was necessary for self-preservation. To have any influence, one needed to be at least a Pure Yang True Immortal, or even a True Immortal!
Living in the True Realm is truly difficult!
「...」
The Snow Concubine Hall was an Immortal Artifact, and Immortal Artifacts possess a core. The core of the Snow Concubine Hall was located in the backyard of the main hall.
Jiang Xueyao, who always appeared innocent and lively in front of outsiders, now wore an expression of cold indifference. Across from her sat an old woman with grizzled white hair.
"Lady, is there sothing important for which you’ve sought ?" the old woman asked leisurely, sipping her tea.
Jiang Xueyao replied coldly, "Why pretend? Aren’t you just soone sent by Qingming Xuan specifically to monitor ?"
Qingming Jing shook her head. "Young one, that’s not right. Ensuring the safety of the concubines is the duty of our clan court."
Jiang Xueyao chuckled coldly, then frowned. "Have you recently used the Immortal Artifact to spy on the servants in the hall?"
Qingming Jing was speechless. "Lady, do I, an old woman, resemble a gossip?"
Although Jiang Xueyao was a bit embarrassed, the matter at hand was more important. She continued, "The Ascender I casually saved possesses a high talent for Spirit Beast Breeding. He bred those Green Jade Mice, as well as both the Yin Pole Deer and the Yang Pole Deer."
"Especially the Yin Pole Deer and Yang Pole Deer. I sensed an aura of the Yin Yang Dao from them, which couldn’t help but make think of the Yin Yang Deer."
"He’s just a youth at the Great Divine Power Realm," Qingming Jing said calmly. "The Yin Yang Deer are not sothing soone of his Realm can ddle with. It might just be a coincidence."
"Possibly, but I need to confirm it," Jiang Xueyao replied, shaking her head.
She had already suffered once in the harem due to carelessness; in the future, she had to be extrely cautious.
Jiang Xueyao carefully took out two Jade Purification Bottles and placed them before Qingming Jing. "It’s been so ti, so the aura inside has mostly dispersed," she said. "Elder, please don’t sense it incorrectly."
"Ha! I’m not so old fossil about to step into my coffin. My eyes aren’t that dim yet," Qingming Jing chuckled.
As the Jade Purification Bottles were opened, two streams of aura, one black and one white, ascended. Qingming Jing, who had been indifferent, suddenly rose to her feet. "Pure Yin Yang Dao! These are truly descendants of the Yin Yang Deer!"
Could it be that little fellow can truly cause an atavistic return to the Yin Yang Deer?
Seeing this, Jiang Xueyao’s face lit up with delight. Her return to the palace was now practically guaranteed.
A single Yin Yang Deer was equivalent to at least one True Immortal. The Qingming Ancient Country’s overall strength was average; True Immortals were its high-end combat power, while Heavenly Immortals, those Great Powers, served mainly as deterrents.
Veins bulged on her chicken-claw-like hand as Qingming Jing’s murky eyes emitted a rosy luminescence, sweeping over everything within the Treasure Pavilion.
The carefree Taiji Deer inside was fixedly stared at by Qingming Jing. "Little fellow, I didn’t expect you to be so fortunate. You were banished for less than two years, and now you’re about to return."
"Can he truly breed a Yin Yang Deer?" Jiang Xueyao asked, her face flushed.
"I don’t know, but he does indeed possess the ability to cause an atavistic return to the Yin Yang Deer. It must be a special ability of his; so peculiar Innate Divine Abilities occasionally appear in small worlds," Qingming Jing explained, withdrawing her Divine Skills.
"Return and await news. I will inform the clan court. They will contact the old ancestors within the clan lands and won’t allow Qingming Zhao to act recklessly."
With a joyful expression, Jiang Xueyao exited the backyard.
A trace of pity suddenly appeared on Qingming Jing’s kindly face. "The Jiang Family has truly produced a self-important fool," she mumbled. "If those old monsters of the Jiang Family were to crawl out of their graves, I wonder if they’d be angered to death by this unfilial descendant."
