Chapter 364 Sang Ziyuan

With Lin Zhao's nascent soul having such a terrifying demand for spiritual energy, the spiritual energy in the treasures she had placed in front of her was quickly exhausted. Lin Zhao was dumbfounded when she saw this.

Is this all the spiritual energy found in these treasures?

"That's enough. You're asking for too much." Granny Honghu sighed helplessly. "Take out the treasures you have left in the Demon Clan's warehouse."

Although Lin Zhao felt a pang of regret, he still took it all out.

Although she is now a wealthy woman, no amount of money can withstand the amount of spiritual energy she absorbs!
If Lin Zhao were to purchase those five treasures at an outside auction house, it would cost him at least tens of billions of spirit stones, which is already a terrifying figure.

"As expected, cultivation levels achieved through sheer force of acquiring treasures are not something to be envied."

They're really rich!
The remnant soul of the Ancestral Dragon couldn't help but say, "Almost no cultivator dares to use treasures to enhance their cultivation after reaching the Nascent Soul stage; it's such a waste."

The amount of spiritual energy required for ordinary Nascent Soul stage advancement is extremely terrifying, so it requires years of accumulation and absorption over hundreds or thousands of years. How could anyone be as extravagant as Lin Zhao?

If these treasures were used to refine pills and related magical artifacts, their effects would go far beyond simply helping cultivators advance in cultivation.
Lin Zhao gave a wry smile: "Isn't this because there's no other way?"

Having already swallowed the pills that aided his advancement, Lin Zhao did not want to take any more pills in the short term.

Fortunately, these things were all stolen from the demons, so Lin Zhao's heartache was not too great.

So she took out some of the treasures and resumed her previous cultivation.

This process was repeated until there were almost no treasures left in the spatial ring, at which point Lin Zhao realized just how terrifying his spiritual energy requirements were.

"I should now have the foundation of 3.5 million spiritual streams." Lin Zhao frowned deeply. "I still haven't completed the breakthrough."

It seems that the further one progresses in one's nascent soul, the greater the amount of spiritual energy required.
Grandma Honghu was also somewhat surprised: "Some Nascent Soul cultivators with good talent only have three million Dao Spirit Flows when they reach the Great Perfection stage. Your amount of spiritual energy is indeed quite terrifying."

Lin Zhao examined his nascent soul, gritted his teeth, and simply used his own resources to extract the spiritual energy from some of the good things he had collected over the years.

"Let me see how much you need to absorb before you're willing to advance!"

……

Jin Ya was playing cards with Yang Weiwei and the others outside, but after losing several rounds, her face was covered in paper strips. She felt her head buzzing and couldn't help but cheat, saying, "I'm not playing anymore!"

Ziyue said, "Alright, what shall we play next?"

Jin Ya said, "I'm not playing anything! I have a feeling that Lin Zhao has broken through his cultivation barrier."

Fan Chen exclaimed in surprise, "So fast?"

It seems that they are always amazed by Lin Zhao's speed of progress, but soon, Lin Zhao can bring them new surprises.

Jin Ya spread her hands: "This is much slower than before. Ten days should have passed outside, right? More than three years have passed inside the secret realm."

Fan Chen thought about it and agreed, but...

"Going from the mid-stage to the late-stage Nascent Soul realm in just three years... what an aberration."

He entered the Nascent Soul stage much earlier than Lin Zhao, yet he was still far from the late Nascent Soul stage, while Lin Zhao had already reached that realm. As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from behind him: "Speaking ill of others behind their backs is not a good habit."

Jin Ya quickly peeled off the white stripe on her head and stretched: "You've finally come out! You've successfully advanced? Then hurry up and take me out! Ming Gui said he can't withstand the interrogation and urging from those demons anymore."

Lin Zhao knew that he had indeed spent a long time in seclusion this time, so he nodded and said, "Let's go."

With everything completely used up, Lin Zhao is now eager to replenish his stock.

After leaving the secret realm with Jin Ya, Lin Zhao arrived at the room where he had entered the secret realm. There, he heard a knock on the door.

"Zhao Lin, are you there?"

He was Dan Chi's deputy general.

The fact that he came to us shows that the current situation is indeed not good.

Lin Zhao sent a burst of spiritual energy, and the door slowly opened.

When Dan Chi Deputy General You Lin saw Lin Zhao sitting peacefully on the bed, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "So Brother Zhao is here. We thought something had happened to Brother Zhao."

Lin Zhao smiled and said, "I was just injured in the previous battle and I've been recuperating. How could anything have happened?"

She now appeared as an ordinary-looking middle-aged man, but her smile revealed a deep and calculating nature. You Lin dared not engage with such a person too much, and simply said, "It's good that General Zhao is alright. The city lord invites you."

Lin Zhao stood up and laughed heartily: "No problem, no problem, let's go."

When they arrived before the Lord of Danchi City, Lin Zhao gave the same reason. Although the Lord of Danchi City had doubts, he did not show them and said...

"I'm really grateful to Brother Minggui for helping me clean up this mess. I only thought Zhao Lin was capable and resourceful, but I didn't expect your brother to be so brave and resourceful as well. I wonder what kind of blessed land it is that produces people like you two? And then there's Brother Jin. Although he's young, his future is definitely limitless!"

Lin Zhao listened to his flattery while asking questions, and knew that the other party had become suspicious. She replied calmly, "They are just some remnants and orphans from the Demon Realm's Sangziyuan. They are not exactly from a blessed land."

The Demon Realm's Sangzi Abyss is the birthplace of demonic energy in the Demon Realm, and even demons dare not easily set foot there.

Only some extremely vicious demons, feared even by the demon race itself, would risk entering that place in pursuit of a demonic body like that of the Ink Lord.

Even so, Sangziyuan remains the place that all demons, except for the Demon Lord, most want to explore, and they send a large number of people there every year.

However, very few of them manage to return after going there, and those who do return are almost all mentally unstable.

It wasn't until a young man who emerged from Sangziyuan killed the Demon Lord of that generation while still a mortal demon that the demon race learned that there were also demons surviving in Sangziyuan, who were the descendants of those demons who had been sent out.

Since then, demons have emerged from Sangziyuan one after another, with varying levels of strength.

Dan Chi couldn't find out Lin Zhao's background, but it provided an excellent reason for the strength of the three of them.

It wouldn't be surprising if any monsters emerged from Sangziyuan, the place where the demon race that killed the Demon Lord could have gone.

Compared to the legendary demon race, the brilliance of Lin Zhao and his companions was truly insignificant.

Dan Chi didn't know whether he believed it or not, and laughed loudly: "Sangziyuan is also a famous place of my demon race. Why does Zhao Lin belittle himself? In my opinion, you three brothers are all very capable!"
