Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

Soon, all the Daoist cultivators who had a good relationship with Wang Quan knew that Wang Quan was going to open up the Purple Mansion.

When everyone heard the news, they were only stunned for a moment, but not surprised.

Over the years, 108,000 magical artifacts, along with ghosts, spirits, and cultivators, have been helping Wang Quan accumulate the resources needed to open up the Purple Mansion.

Based on the resources produced, everyone deduced that he had accumulated enough resources to open up the Purple Mansion.

At this point, it seemed only natural for him to open up his Purple Palace.

Upon hearing this, everyone felt only envy and jealousy.

Mei Niang gritted her teeth in jealousy. Ignoring Wang Quan's resistance, she grabbed his arm and shook it vigorously: "Fellow Daoist, after you open your Purple Mansion, could you lend me that set of magical artifacts?"

"With your set of magical artifacts, I will be able to open up my Purple Mansion in thirty years at most."

"When the time comes, I'll find a thousand or eight hundred pure female cultivators to study the 'Poppy Beauty' technique with you, how about that?"

Wang Quan pulled Meiniang down and put her aside: "I still need that set of magical artifacts."

Mei Niang pouted.

Some Daoist practitioners were delighted: "It's useful!"

"So you won't lend it to Meiniang and then let her open the Purple Mansion ahead of time."

"If she had opened her Purple Mansion ahead of time, she would definitely look down on us and refuse to cultivate with us."

Royal power...

Ruo Jinghong and others...

After dismissing Meiniang and the others, Wang Quan adjusted his state and began to study how to open up the Purple Mansion.

The opening of the Purple Palace is divided into four categories:

Category 1: Physical Purple Mansion.

The method for creating this type of Purple Mansion is simple: just build a mansion in the present world.

Then, using a method similar to forging a top-tier foundational altar, he absorbed the mansion into his body.

This type of Purple Mansion consumes more resources, but it is more solid and stable than other Purple Mansions.

Most orthodox monks would choose this type of enlightenment method.

The second category: magic treasures in the Purple Mansion.

Use some magical artifacts, or magical artifact prototypes, to build the Purple Mansion.

This kind of purple mansion possesses various incredible powers depending on the type of magical treasure, making it extremely mysterious.

Almost every Daoist cultivator desires a Purple Mansion like this.

However—unless one has a powerful background and great fortune, they shouldn't even think about it.

Although Wang Quan has some authority, he can even mobilize the celestial patrol treasures.

However... we also lack the ability to create this type of Purple Mansion.

Because this type of Purple Mansion requires at least thirty-six first-tier magic treasures to open.

The third category: turning fake into real.

The Purple Palace is opened up through visualization, totems, embroidery, sculptures, incense and faith.

As long as one invests in the most basic elements of earth, fire, and feng shui, along with continuous infusion of magical power, one can open up the Purple Palace.

This type of Purple Mansion consumes the least resources, but it is also the weakest in power.

Orthodox monks rarely choose this option.

Category 4: Legacy of the Purple Palace.

This type of method of opening up the Purple Palace is further divided into two types:

The first method: The pioneer finds the Purple Mansion opened by a deceased predecessor, imprints their own magical power on it, rearranges the restrictions and rituals, and occupies the Purple Mansion.

This method can save a huge amount of resources, and after opening it, the Purple Mansion is directly in its ultimate form, which can save a huge amount of hard work and resources.

Moreover, due to the mysteries of the Purple Mansion itself, one can also obtain all sorts of strange and wonderful magical treasures, spiritual medicines, and other good things.

This kind of inherited purple mansion is the purple mansion that all Daoist cultivators desire most.

However... there are dozens of times fewer cultivators who possess this kind of legacy in their Purple Mansion than those who possess magical treasures in their Purple Mansion.

Because these types of celestial palaces, once they lose their masters, will inevitably become tainted with dust:

They may be hidden in mountains and rivers, in the endless ocean, or in some inconspicuous rock.

Only after the time stipulated by the master before his death will it be revived from its dusty state, open the gates of its celestial palace, and welcome the lucky one.

At that time, cultivators who have not yet opened their Purple Mansion can rush in to compete for control of the Purple Mansion.

However, these Purple Mansions will only be open for a few days, or even just a few hours.

If no one takes control of it during this period, it will fall into disrepair again.

Once it becomes covered in dust, even top-tier cultivators at the Accelerator level will be unable to force their way in.

We can only wait, for thousands, tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of years, until it is freed from its dusty state and can re-enter the environment.

In the present-day New Continent, on average every one to two years, a Purple Mansion emerges from its dusty state, attracting countless Daoist Foundation Establishment cultivators to rush in and compete for it.

However, it often takes one or two thousand years, or even three to five thousand years, for a lucky person to possess such a legacy of divine blessings.

These lucky individuals are all unparalleled prodigies who are orthodox disciples of the 108 Xuanmen sects.

The second type of legacy-type Purple Mansion is the same as the physical Purple Mansion: it requires a huge amount of resources to build a physical Purple Mansion.

However, once the Purple Mansion is completed, the physical Purple Mansion will not be moved into the inner landscape.

Instead, the physical Purple Mansion remains in the present world, while only a projection remains within the body.

Ultimately, it took a massive amount of resources to sink this physical Purple Mansion into the mountains, rivers, and fierce winds, hiding it and merging it into the world.

This type of legacy-like Purple Mansion, because it physically exists in the present world, is therefore the most powerful and mysterious:

Once these Purple Mansions have developed to a certain level, they can extract materials from the real world to refine magical artifacts, cultivate precious medicines, and create rare treasures.

The greatest benefit of this Purple Mansion is:

After a cultivator who has opened up the Purple Mansion is completely destroyed, there is a certain possibility that he will be resurrected from the Purple Mansion tens of thousands or millions of years later.

If one dies not from the complete destruction of one's soul and spirit, but simply from the end of one's lifespan, one can absolutely rely on the Purple Mansion to live a second life.

There is a certain chance that they will live out their third or fourth incarnation.

According to Taoist scriptures, the cultivator who repeatedly revived his Purple Mansion through this method achieved a total of nine rebirths.

What Wang Quan wanted to develop was this Purple Mansion.

The most important resource for opening up the Purple Palace was mostly taken care of by the king.

Now, he needs to choose a location to open up the Purple Mansion.

Initially, he wanted to establish a foothold in the Stone City in the far west.

However, in recent years, as he has mastered more and more Taoist scriptures, he has also mastered more and more types of magic.

He's also becoming increasingly picky about locations.

Stone City was nice, but he always felt that something was missing.

During his return to the Drowning Lower Temple, he also visited the Nu River and the mountains outside the temple. Although it was an excellent feng shui site, suitable for establishing the Yize Purple Mansion.

But he still felt something was missing.

"If I can't find a suitable place, I'll let the four directions, the sun, moon, stars, and the changing seasons guide me."

"To get them to show me the location, I need some high-grade offerings."

In the past, he would have needed to spend a lot of time collecting offerings.

But not anymore.

He felt that the Golden Core cultivators of the [Western Pole] family were the best sacrifices.

"Now, all we have to do is wait for the sacrifices to arrive."

Wang Quan guarded tens of thousands of treasure pouches containing materials, and he longed for the [Western Extreme] family.

While he was waiting for the superior offerings, news came from the second level of the inner realm:

The battle for supremacy in the far west will begin in three years, with the struggle for territory now firmly established.

[All cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage or above who possess Daoist inscriptions can contact their respective sects or other sects to register for the event!]

[Friendly reminder: You are both participants and sacrifices in this magical battle.]

The victor reaps countless benefits, while the loser... perishes and vanishes, transforming into top-tier materials.
