Mortal's Purple Sky Cave Heaven

Chapter 196 Strengthening
.

At the same time, he slightly turned his body, revealing his back in front of Nie Ying.

"It's because my husband dotes on Ying'er." Nie Ying said with a bright smile, extremely happy.

As he said this, he put his hands on Nie Zhaonan's shoulders and lay on his back.

Upon hearing this, Nie Zhaonan smiled slightly, turned into a beam of light and returned the way he came.

In Nie Zhaonan's cave in Tianxing City, Nie Zhaonan was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in a secret room. There was a huge magic circle drawn on the ground, which was extremely mysterious and ancient.

A pair of green wings were suspended in the middle of the magic circle, with golden and silver arcs of electricity bouncing and flickering on them, but at the same time they were wrapped in a ball of dark white flames.

With every rotation, layers of runes of various colors appear on the surface of the wings, so densely packed that it is impossible to tell how many layers there are.

Nie Zhaonan clasped his hands together and urged the infant fire to continuously burn the wings.

After an unknown amount of time, Nie Zhaonan retracted his magic spell and opened his eyes.

He looked at the wings slowly turning in the flames and pointed at them with one hand.

Suddenly, its wings flapped, and with a "puff" sound, a misty green light burst out, and golden and silver arcs of electricity also rumbled loudly, the momentum was truly astonishing.

When Nie Zhaonan saw this scene, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes and he was very satisfied.

Without any hesitation, he raised his hand and waved towards the wings in the magic circle.

With a whoosh, the Green Thunder Wings transformed into a blue-white light and shot out, then paused and hovered above Nie Zhaonan's palm without moving.

At this time, Yin Yue poked her head out from Nie Zhaonan's clothes, stared at Yu Chi without blinking, and a hint of surprise flashed across her face.

"The power of this Blue Thunder Wing is now far superior to that of top-level ancient treasures. If the master can cultivate it for another forty or fifty years, it may be able to rank among the imitation spiritual treasures."

Yin Yue's voice was full of surprise. She didn't expect that Nie Zhaonan would be able to cultivate this innate magic weapon to a level that even late Nascent Soul cultivators could not reach in such a short time.

"The materials used to refine the Green Thunder Wings are already extraordinary. Now, two rare and top-level thunder-attribute materials, Thunder-absorbing Stone and Thunder Crystal, have been added. It is not surprising that they can have such power." Nie Zhaonan said calmly.

After saying that, he opened his mouth and sucked, and the Qinglei Wings quickly shrank, then disappeared into his mouth.

"Yin Yue, do you think my body is your nest?" Nie Zhaonan gently stroked the smooth hair and said with a slightly bitter smile.

"The master's arms are very warm." Yin Yue nudged Nie Zhaonan's chest with her fox head and said with a satisfied look on her face.

"Okay, do whatever you want." Nie Zhaonan said indifferently.

He could probably guess that Yin Yue, who had lost her memory, had been trapped in the Xutian Ding for countless years and had lived a very lonely and cold life, which was why she was so attached to him now.

"Master, in another month, Yin Yue will be able to transform into a physical form again. I will serve you well then." Yin Yue said suddenly, her voice full of deadly temptation.

Nie Zhaonan's heart was slightly moved when he heard this. Yin Yue's current body was that of a fox spirit. Her performance during the dual cultivation was even more enchanting and charming, so enchanting that even he could not help but be obsessed with the temptation of the fox spirit.

"Why do you think about this all day long? You need to practice well, okay?" Nie Zhaonan regained his composure, and spoke like a gentleman.

"Hmph." Yin Yue snorted disdainfully and retracted her head.

The flash of joy that just crossed Nie Zhaonan's face did not escape her eyes. What a hypocritical guy.

Moreover, every time they practiced dual cultivation, the master would almost tear her apart. She could never forget the feeling of being completely powerless.

Thinking of this, Yin couldn't help but recall the past in a daze.

Seeing the little fox being humiliated, Nie Zhaonan smiled slightly, feeling it was quite amusing.

"After making all the arrangements, let's return to Tiannan." Nie Zhaonan thought in his mind.

With a wave of his sleeves, dozens of sound transmission notes flew out and disappeared without a trace after passing through the light curtain of the formation.

In the ancient hall on the top floor of the holy mountain, all the Yuanying stage elders in the Star Palace were gathered.

They each sat on a wooden chair, either talking in low voices or using the art of transmitting sound in a very secretive manner.

Make the hall seem a bit chaotic and noisy.

"This is the first time that the Palace Master has summoned us, the elders of the Star Palace, since he took over the position. Could something big be happening?" A spirited old man asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"No matter what crisis there is, as long as the Palace Master is here, we have nothing to worry about." A middle-aged man answered nonchalantly.

His words showed full confidence in Nie Zhaonan's strength, without any doubt.

"Brother Daoist Zhou is right. We just need to follow the arrangements and there is no need to think too much." A Xinggong elder with a sallow face said calmly.

"Congratulations, Elder Zhong. You have become one of our generation and your lifespan may reach a thousand years." A Xinggong elder in the early Nascent Soul stage congratulated Zhong Wuchang who was standing beside him.

"I was only able to advance successfully thanks to the Palace Master. I am still far behind veteran Nascent Soul cultivators like fellow martial artist." Zhong Wuchang said with a faint smile.

Although he tried his best to hide it, his joy could not help but show out.

Just three years ago, after a long period of preparation, he successfully condensed his Nascent Soul and became an elder of the Star Palace.

"I'm a little curious about the specific effects of the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill. Don't get me wrong, Elder Zhong. I'm not trying to find out the hidden meaning behind it. It's just that I have a younger generation who has just advanced to the False Infant realm and is now preparing to condense the Nascent Soul. That's why I asked this question." Elder Wu said sincerely, without a trace of hypocrisy in his words.

"It's nothing. The efficacy of the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill is something that most people know. From my personal experience of taking it, this Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill can increase the chances of successfully condensing a Nascent Soul by 30 to 40 percent. It can be said that few other spiritual medicines can compare to it." Zhong Wuchang said with a normal expression and a hint of reminiscence.

“Thirty to forty percent? When I was condensing my Nascent Soul back then, I went through great pains to find an elixir for forming a Nascent Soul, but it could only increase the success rate by ten percent. If I could obtain a Nine-bend Spirit Ginseng Pill from the Palace Master, wouldn’t my descendant have a great chance of condensing a Nascent Soul?” Elder Wu said in shock, his voice unconsciously getting louder, causing the surrounding Star Palace elders to look at him sideways.

“That being said, it’s not easy to exchange a Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill from the Palace Master. You have to know that it’s not easy to get something that can attract a cultivator as powerful as the Palace Master.” Zhong Wuchang said, shaking his head slightly.

Hearing this, Elder Wu recalled the bounty list issued by the Palace Master. All the items on the list were rare things that had been rarely seen in hundreds of years, and some had even long been extinct in the human world.

However, when he thought of the thing in his hand, Elder Wu felt relieved. However, when he thought about trading this thing, he felt very distressed.

Seeing that Elder Wu had a gloomy look on his face, he seemed to be unable to make up his mind.

Zhong Wuchang didn't say anything else.

After a while, Elder Wu raised his head and opened his mouth a few times, but then closed it again. The hall also became silent, and all the elders of the Star Palace sat upright, calm and composed, without any trace of whispering as before.

At the same time, Nie Zhaonan and Ling Yuling walked out from a side door, took a few steps to the main seat and sat down.

"I've met the palace master!"

All the Yuanying stage elders spoke respectfully.

It’s not their fault, it’s just that Nie Zhaonan’s reputation is too great.

Nie Zhaonan glanced around and paused at Zhong Wuchang without paying too much attention to him.

"There's no need to be so polite, elders." Nie Zhaonan said in a flat tone.

"I have called you all here today to tell you a piece of news. Myself and I will be going out for a trip soon. I will have to trouble you elders to take care of all the affairs of the Star Palace in the future." Nie Zhaonan said straight to the point.

"I will follow the Palace Master's orders!"

It is a very common thing for cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage to travel. They will do so when they have free time. They don’t think there is anything wrong with Nie Zhaonan’s behavior.

Moreover, ever since the destruction of the Anti-Star Alliance, the power of the Star Palace has increased dramatically, and no one in the entire Chaos Star Sea is dissatisfied.

I believe that no one is bold enough to suddenly go against the Xing Palace when the two palace masters are traveling.

They have nothing to worry about.

"Okay! Elder Zhao and Elder Zhou, you two assisted Yu Ling in managing the Star Palace in an orderly manner during the period when this palace master was in seclusion. Here are two elixirs of immortality, and I will give them to you two now." Nie Zhaonan said slowly.

At the same time, he turned his palm and two white jade bottles appeared in his hand. With a wave of his hand, the jade bottles turned into streams of light and flew towards the two elders Zhao and Zhou.

"Thank you, Palace Master!"

After receiving the jade bottle, Zhao and Zhou's faces were filled with joy.

This elixir of immortality is a pill made from longevity fruit. It can increase the lifespan of a cultivator by sixty years, so it is extremely precious.

All the Nascent Soul cultivators present looked at the jade bottles in the hands of the two men with fiery eyes.

Compared to these Nascent Soul cultivators who have lived for hundreds of years, the value of an elixir of immortality is even higher than that of an elixir that improves their cultivation.

The elder surnamed Wu's eyes flashed, and after seeing the elixir of immortality, he seemed to have made up his mind.

"This is the Wanli Talisman. If there is anything you cannot solve, please send a message to this Palace Master."

After a flash of white light appeared on Nie Zhaonan's palm, two white and transparent jade talismans appeared.

Without any excessive movement, the jade talisman floated lightly towards Zhao and Zhou.

After getting the jade talisman, Zhao and Zhou finally understood why the White Lord rewarded them with the "Elixir of Immortality".

However, instead of showing any displeasure, the two men simultaneously promised that they would handle the affairs of the Star Palace properly and would not disturb Nie Zhaonan's travels.

Afterwards, Nie Zhaonan said a few more things, and the Star Palace elders present left one after another.

But there was still one person left in the hall, and that was Elder Wu.

At this moment, he was standing at the bottom of the main steps, saying something respectfully.

"May I ask if the Palace Master has any extra Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pills and Longevity Pills?" Elder Wu asked with his hands lowered, with anticipation in his eyes.

Both the Nine-bend Ginseng Pill and the Longevity Pill are rare elixirs. He was not sure whether Nie Zhaonan had any left, so he asked this question.

"This palace master does have a few in his hand." Nie Zhaonan said calmly, but there was still some curiosity in his expression.

When everyone was leaving, Elder Wu came closer, looking as if he had something to discuss with him.

Nie Zhaonan could also roughly guess that this person wanted to make a deal with him.

Hearing this, Elder Wu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a hint of excitement, "Palace Master, please take a look at this."

After saying that, he slapped a storage bag on his waist, and a basin-shaped object flew out of it and hovered in the air.

It swelled up in the wind and became half a meter in size. Only then did the object reveal its true appearance.

This object is half a meter in size and oval in shape, like a small pond. There is a clear spiritual spring in the pond, emitting a trace of spiritual energy.

It is the spring of spiritual eyes.

This is not the end yet. In the spirit pond, there is a two-colored lotus.

Although this lotus has not yet bloomed and is only a bud, it is already as big as a bowl and emits a hazy green and red glow, which is very charming.

"Seven Clouds Lotus!" Ling Yuling cried out in shock, her words full of disbelief as she stared blankly at the lotus bud in the spirit pond.

Nie Zhaonan on the side also showed a look of shock. He didn't expect to really see this legendary thing today.

"Palace Master Ling is right. This thing is exactly the Seven Clouds Lotus. I discovered this thing by chance when I broke into the ruins of an ancient cultivator. This is the true record of the Seven Clouds Lotus found from the remains of the ancient cultivator. Please take a look, Palace Master." Elder Wu said with a complacent look on his face.

At the same time, he took out a seven-colored jade slip from his arms and held it in both hands.

Seeing such a rare object as the Seven Clouds Lotus, Nie Zhaonan could not suppress his curiosity. He reached out and grabbed it without hesitation, and the seven-colored jade slip flew into Nie Zhaonan's hand.

After scanning the jade slip with his spiritual sense and finding nothing had been done, the powerful spiritual sense invaded the jade slip without hesitation. He closed his eyes slightly and carefully examined the contents inside.

At the same time, Elder Wu explained at the right time: "The actual effect of the Seven Clouds Lotus is not as recorded in some classics, that taking it can make people ascend to heaven in broad daylight, and it has such a miraculous effect of turning mortals into immortals."

After a slight pause, he looked at Nie Zhaonan cautiously. Seeing that there was no change in his expression, Elder Wu continued:
"But taking this lotus can also greatly improve the cultivation of cultivators below the Spiritualization Stage. Even if the Seven Clouds Lotus in front of us only shows two colors, if a Jindan cultivator takes this lotus, his cultivation can be greatly improved, saving him decades of hard training."
