Myriad Daos of the Heaven

After listening to Wei Xiaohao’s explanation, the Totem Youth beside them spoke up. "I’ve heard that there’s a Dao Spirit Flower in a Pure Land Spiritual Land within the Poisonous Mist Peak Forest. They say it can help a Grandmaster achieve Earth-level Foundation Establishment. Is that true?"

The Totem Youth had woken up the day before, and his cultivation had already fully recovered. The Barbaric Spirit Bloodline was truly formidable; it allowed him to heal from such severe injuries with incredible speed. Moreover, with the help of the Treasure Medicine, his cultivation had advanced even further, and he was now on the verge of breaking through to the Innate Seventh Layer.

The Totem Youth’s name was Luoo Long, and he lived in a dilapidated temple in the wilderness outside Yunshui City.

As for his relationship with Yee Youmeng, he said that one day, he saw a ten-year-old Yee Youmeng being chased by a group of older children. She hid in the dilapidated temple, and Luoo Long chased the bullies away. From then on, Yee Youmeng also came to live in the dilapidated temple in the wilderness.

Luoo Long had a cold and withdrawn personality and rarely spoke to others. But Yee Youmeng was even colder; she almost never spoke at all. The two of them were like separate individuals who never interfered with one another. Only in battle did they cooperate with perfect understanding.

There were two other people in the Wilderness Mountain Temple as well.

One was their "big sister," and the other was their "youngest brother." Of course, none of them were blood relatives.

They might have seemed like strangers, but from living together, their bond had grown to be stronger than family.

They lived this way for several years, until recently, when their youngest brother suddenly contracted a strange illness. His body became filled with a black Curse Power, and he fell into a deep slumber, unable to awaken.

It was said that only Star Spirit Grass could wash away the Curse Power and awaken their brother. So, when the Ancient Refining Land opened, the two of them entered, hoping to find the Star Spirit Grass in the Ancient Ruined City.

Yee Youmeng was not one for conversation. It was Luoo Long who revealed all this, as he considered Jiang Jichen their savior and benefactor. He held nothing back and even promised that if they found the Star Spirit Grass, he would willingly become Jiang Jichen’s personal attendant.

Having awakened the Barbaric Spirit Body, Luoo Long’s future achievements were bound to be unimaginable. Jiang Jichen certainly wouldn’t refuse a subordinate like that.

Therefore, Jiang Jichen decided to invest in Luoo Long, hoping he would grow stronger quickly. He tossed him a Storage Bag filled with Spirit Beast Inner Cores.

Jiang Jichen was incredibly wealthy now, to the point where he was wondering what to spend his resources on. ’Raising a few followers isn’t a bad idea,’ he thought.

Besides, Spirit Beast Inner Cores were useless to him; his cultivation only required Spirit Pills. For Luoo Long, however, with his Barbaric Spirit Body, it was the exact opposite. His cultivation relied on consuming Spirit Beast Inner Cores, while Spirit Pills had little effect.

In addition to Luoo Long, Jiang Jichen also wanted to invest heavily in Yee Youmeng. But she wouldn’t give him the time of day and showed no intention of becoming his follower, maintaining her cold and aloof demeanor. Still, Jiang Jichen wasn’t stingy. He tossed her a Storage Bag full of Spirit Pills and said, "Little Youmeng, these are from your big brother. Eat as many as you want. I’ll take care of you from now on!"

Yee Youmeng readily accepted the Spirit Pill Bag but kept up her usual indifferent act.

With such abundant Cultivation Resources, it was no wonder Yee Youmeng’s progress had been so rapid recently.

As for Wei Xiaohao, he gasped inwardly when he saw the Cultivation Resources Jiang Jichen produced. He couldn’t help but wonder, ’Who’s the Loose Cultivator here, him or me?’

’The Cultivation Resources Jiang Jichen has are even more abundant than what Noble Young Masters like us possess. It’s terrifying!’

Hearing Luoo Long’s question, Wei Xiaohao didn’t dare to be slow in his response. He had personally witnessed Luoo Long erupt with his Barbaric Spirit Bloodline and tear an Innate Seventh Layer Profound Beast apart with his bare hands. The scene had been absolutely brutal and bloody.

The contrast was jarring for him. After all, he had been the one taking care of Luoo Long, who had seemed as weak and lifeless as a corpse. For him to wake up and immediately unleash such astonishing power—how could Wei Xiaohao not be awed?

’Now I get it,’ he thought. ’Everyone around Jiang Jichen is a monster. You can’t judge any of them by normal standards.’

"The Dao Spirit Flower does exist," Wei Xiaohao replied. "It’s at the location marked with seven colors on this Treasure Medicine Map. It’s a Pure Land Spiritual Land deep inside the Poisonous Mist Peak Forest, and they say a single Dao Spirit Flower grows there."

As Wei Xiaohao spoke, a complex and barely perceptible emotion flickered in his eyes.

The Dao Spirit Flower was a Spirit Flower that every Cultivator in the Grandmaster Realm desperately craved. In their quest for the best Foundation Establishment Pill to build a higher-level Dao Platform, many would willingly suppress their cultivation and postpone their breakthrough into the Foundation Establishment Realm.

The Foundation Establishment Realm was the stage where one built their Dao Platform, laying the groundwork for the long journey toward immortality.

When ordinary people broke through the Grandmaster Realm to enter the Foundation Establishment Realm, they could only form a common Dao Platform. Outstanding geniuses could condense a Profound-level Dao Platform. Only those with world-shaking Talent Bloodlines could form an Earth Level Dao Platform!

However, with the help of a peerless Foundation Establishment Pill, a Cultivator could ascend another level. A truly world-shaking genius might even be able to use such a pill to build the legendary Heaven-level Dao Platform.

With a Dao Spirit Flower, even a Cultivator of merely outstanding talent could build an Earth Level Dao Platform. This alone showed how precious the flower was—precious enough to drive countless Grandmasters into a frenzy.

After all, for someone who already possessed a world-shaking talent and bloodline, a Dao Spirit Flower offered a sliver of hope of building a Heaven-level Dao Platform. Even if they failed, they would still form the absolute highest grade of an Earth Level Dao Platform.

Seeking the Dao, pursuing immortality—the entire Path of Immortality began with the Foundation Establishment!

It was the foundation. The higher the level of the Dao Platform one built, the greater their chances of eventually ascending and the brighter their hope of attaining true immortality.

Therefore, even world-shaking geniuses would not rush into the Foundation Establishment Realm. Instead, they would choose to suppress their realm and polish their cultivation, all for the sake of building a higher-level Dao Platform.

Jiang Jichen spoke calmly, "In that case, let’s go all out one more time. We’ll take the Dao Spirit Flower. Move out!"

Having learned about the Poisonous Mist Peak Forest and the Dao Spirit Flower, Jiang Jichen gave a commanding wave of his hand and led the way forward.

Jiang Jichen once again took the lead, clearing the path. Yee Youmeng walked beside him, dragging her large machete. Wei Xiaohao was in the middle, and Luoo Long brought up the rear.

This Beiyue Training Ground was actually quite mysterious. Its first layer was the Sealed Land. From there, one entered the second layer, the Refining Illusion Realm. Passing through the illusion realm would then lead to the third and final layer: the Ancient Ruined City.

The third layer, the Ancient Ruined City, was their ultimate destination. Legend told that it was once an Ancient Holy City that had fallen into ruin over the ages.

The Poisonous Mist Peak Forest was the most mysterious location within the second layer, the Refining Illusion Realm. It was boundlessly vast, and even after eons, only a fraction of it had ever been explored. Many mysterious places, like patches of Purifying Spirit Soil, remained undiscovered, and vast swaths of the forest were lands where no one had ever set foot.

Upon entering the Poisonous Mist Peak Forest, they could see a faint, almost transparent white mist drifting among the peaks. It was so thin that one might not even notice it without looking closely.

However, this mist was toxic. Of course, the poison in the outermost area of the forest couldn’t harm them, but what lay deeper within was another matter entirely...
