Chapter 161: War Erupts

Chapter 161 War Erupts

Zhang Yuhe sipped tea while quietly contemplating his future cultivation direction.

After sorting out his thoughts roughly, he returned to the Cave Dwelling and came to the side hall on the left side of the Cave Dwelling.

A towering long staff emanating a profound aura was currently standing on a high platform in the center of the side hall.

It was precisely the Nine Heavens Flying Spirit Staff.

Zhang Yuhe held very high expectations for this Innate treasure.

Over the years in the Immortal Realm, he had reviewed various data.

And finally gained a certain understanding of Innate treasures.

To be precise, Innate treasures should be divided into two major categories.

They were respectively Innate spiritual materials and Innate supreme treasures.

Both shared a commonality, which was the ability to grow on their own.

Among them, Innate spiritual materials were equivalent to a type of extremely precious and special Artifact Refining materials.

When Innate spiritual materials were refined into an Immortal Artifact, not only would its power be greatly enhanced.

Furthermore, Immortal Artifacts refined with Innate spiritual materials also possessed the attribute of self-growth.

For example, a Low-Grade Immortal Artifact, if Innate spiritual materials were refined into it.

Followed by providing enough Immortal materials for the Immortal Artifact to slowly absorb.

Then this Low-Grade Immortal Artifact would gradually grow into a Middle Grade Immortal Artifact and a High-Grade Immortal Artifact.

And might even eventually grow into a Dao Artifact.

Most of the Dao Artifacts in the Immortal Realm grew up through this pathway.

Of course, not all Immortal Artifacts refined with Innate spiritual materials could grow into Dao Artifacts.

Every Innate spiritual material had its own upper limit.

Some Immortal Artifacts refined with Innate spiritual materials might reach the Middle Grade Immortal Artifact level and could no longer continue to grow.

Only a very small number of Immortal Artifacts refined with Innate spiritual materials would eventually grow into Dao Artifacts.

Moreover, this time would be extremely long.

So long that even Dao Ancestors could not wait for it.

As for Innate supreme treasures, they were naturally formed embryonic Dharma Treasures and came with their own cultivation formulas and rune patterns.

Just like the Nine Heavens Flying Spirit Staff.

On the entire supreme treasure body, there was no trace of artificial refinement, appearing entirely natural.

On the staff body, there were also circles of natural rune patterns.

Back when he obtained the Nine Heavens Flying Spirit Staff in the Cangyun Realm.

It was precisely through these rune patterns and formulas that he finally refined this supreme treasure for his own use.

Compared to Innate spiritual materials, Innate supreme treasures were even more precious.

Innate supreme treasures were entirely natural, and their power was vastly superior to Immortal Artifacts of the same rank.

Even a Low-Grade Immortal Artifact level Innate supreme treasure was somewhat more powerful than ordinary Middle Grade Immortal Artifacts.

Compared to Innate spiritual materials.

Innate supreme treasures had no growth upper limit.

Theoretically, every Innate supreme treasure could eventually grow into a Dao Artifact.

It was merely a matter of time length.

Once an Innate supreme treasure grew to the end, it would be an Innate Dao Artifact.

Every Innate Dao Artifact was an existence that suppressed the foundation of a clan.

In legends.

The reason why Immortals were able to gain a foothold in the Chaos Continent.

Was precisely because the human, demon, and devil three clans each had an Innate Dao Artifact existing.

Relying on these three Innate Dao Artifacts could they resist the attacks of Chaos Beasts.

Regardless of whether it was Innate spiritual materials or Innate supreme treasures.

Their degree of preciousness was still beyond his original imagination.

Zhang Yuhe looked at the Nine Heavens Flying Spirit Staff before him.

He saw that the original black theme color on the staff body had gradually turned golden.

Evolving into a golden towering long staff.

Although the Innate supreme treasure's aura was restrained and not as sharp and exposed as other Immortal Artifacts.

Yet Zhang Yuhe could clearly perceive it.

The Nine Heavens Flying Spirit Staff had already evolved from the original High-Grade Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure into a Low-Grade Immortal Artifact.

With a wave of his right hand, several pieces of Immortal-grade ores slowly landed on the high platform.

The Nine Heavens Flying Spirit Staff emitted a faint aura, enveloping the ores.

The Dao rhyme aura carried within the Immortal ores began to be slowly absorbed and integrated by the Nine Heavens Flying Spirit Staff.

Wanting to make an Innate treasure grow, the consumption involved was not something an ordinary person could bear.

Over these years.

Zhang Yuhe continuously accepted orders to refine Immortal Artifacts, collecting a large amount of Immortal materials and Immortal ores.

He poured all these Immortal materials into it.

After tens of thousands of years of cultivation, the Nine Heavens Flying Spirit Staff had barely grown into a Low-Grade Immortal Artifact.

Wanting to let this Innate supreme treasure continue to grow to a Middle Grade Immortal Artifact.

It was unknown how many Immortal materials would be consumed, and unknown how many years and months one would have to wait.

However, he also knew that this kind of matter could not be rushed.

The road of cultivating the Dao was long and endless.

He could afford to wait.

After checking the status of the Nine Heavens Flying Spirit Staff, Zhang Yuhe came to the cultivation platform and slowly sat cross-legged.

And began silently deducing the Renshui Lightning Absorption Array.

...

Tianchen Island, discussion hall.

Ouyang Tianchen was sitting face-to-face with a gloomy-faced old man in cyan robes.

This person was precisely the head of the Qian Family, Qian Mu, a Middle Stage Golden Immortal.

This time he came to Tianchen Island precisely to find Ouyang Tianchen to discuss the details of dealing with the Dao Saint Sect, as well as the subsequent territory distribution issues.

Ten thousand years had passed, but the Golden Immortal Cultivator behind the Dao Saint Sect had not shown up.

They could no longer wait any longer.

Qian Mu picked up his teacup and drank it in one gulp, then slowly said.

"Brother Ouyang has already decided? To make a move against the Dao Saint Sect right now."

Ouyang Tianchen responded firmly.

"Correct, with our two families joining forces, we will definitely be able to quickly breach the mountain gate of the Dao Saint Sect."

"Good, then let us make a move. Old Monster Lu has been missing for so many years, he should have died long ago."

"The Dao Saint Sect only has two Golden Immortals left, Lian Zhengyu and Song Heguang, which are completely nothing to worry about."

Hearing that Qian Mu finally relented, Ouyang Tianchen could not help but be overjoyed.

He immediately stood up and said with an inspired expression.

"Then it is settled. Three months later, we will combine our forces into one and directly capture Yunfei Island."

"After success, we will share the territory of the Dao Saint Sect together."

"Good, it's a deal."

After the two continued to discuss some other details, Qian Mu hurried away in flight.

He still had to go back and prepare a bit.

Although the Dao Saint Sect had been in decline for many years, its surface strength in front of their two families.

Was completely not worth mentioning.

However, Lu Yunfei, having once been the number one Golden Immortal of the Ji'an Sea Area.

Would inevitably have left behind quite a few backup plans in the Dao Saint Sect.

If they did not prepare properly and ended up capsizing later, that would truly be a comical matter.

The actions of the Ouyang Family and Qian Family gathering a large number of personnel.

Naturally could not be kept from the Dao Saint Sect.

Lian Zhengyu felt that the great battle was approaching.

He quickly contracted the Sect's forces, abandoning all outer islands.

Concentrated all the strength of the Dao Saint Sect to fortify the Yunfei Island mountain gate.

At the same time, he also sent messages to all disciples outside, letting them carefully guard against the opponent's attacks.

Zhang Yuhe was silently deducing the Formation.

Suddenly his expression stirred, and an Immortal Transmission Mirror appeared in his hand.

After casting a formula.

Lian Zhengyu's voice came out from the mirror.

"The Ouyang Family and Qian Family are about to launch an attack on the Dao Saint Sect."

"If you are unable to rush back to the mountain gate, be sure to hide your whereabouts well and protect yourselves."

Hearing the message in the mirror, Zhang Yuhe was silent for quite a while, muttering to himself.

"We have finally reached this step, I hope Lian Zhengyu and Song Heguang can defend the mountain gate."

The original mission for him and Xie Mingyuan was to stay behind to guard the market.

Maintaining the Sect's interests in the market.

Now that the great battle was about to erupt, all interests were no longer important.

Regardless of the outcome of the great battle, the power distribution of the entire Ji'an Sea Area would inevitably be reshuffled.

What he needed to do now was to choose a strategic point to deal a fatal blow to the Ouyang Family or Qian Family.

In order to alleviate the pressure on the Sect side.

Zhang Yuhe believed that with the foundation of the Dao Saint Sect.

Yunfei Island where the mountain gate was located was not so easily breached.

As for returning to the mountain gate now?

Clearly not a good choice.

Yunfei Island was too far from the market.

Even if he flew at full strength, it would still take a little half a year.

By the time he rushed back, I am afraid it would be too late.
