Volume 6: Breaking Out of the Cocoon and Becoming a Butterfly Chapter 2: Treasures

  This age is the age of gods and demons, real gods and demons are born from the heaven and earth, and they are innate spirits as soon as they are born. But Ji Ning was born with a godly body at the age of eleven, which is equivalent to an ordinary newly born god. And now he is sixteen... If we consider Ji Ning as a god, he is only five years old.

  "If you can cultivate to the Violet Palace within ten years, it will prove your potential." The yellow giant bear looked at the towering bronze gate with a complex gaze, "You can enter the Divine Communication Hall... Inside the Divine Communication Hall, there is a test left by the master. If you pass, you can get a powerful divine communication method left by the master."

  "Remember, there's only one chance to enter the Divine Communication Temple." The yellow big bear looked at Ji Ning, "So the stronger your strength is when you go in, the greater the grasp, it's best to enter the Divine Communication Temple at the age of ten. Otherwise, if you fail, you won't be able to get the divine communication. After all, it's a test and there's some danger involved. Being careless can also cost you your life."

  Ji Ning curiously asked: "What divine abilities does the Divine Transcendence Temple have?"

  The big yellow bear glanced at Ji Ning and said indifferently: "You'll know after you've gone through the test, as for not being able to pass? You don't even have the qualifications to know."

  "Go, go see the next temple." The yellow big bear continued walking forward.

  Ji Ning glanced at the palm print on the bronze gate that emitted an endless aura of pressure.

  Shentong Temple?

  My own demonic body has not yet reached the level of the Purple Mansion, thinking too much is useless.

  ……

  This ancient corridor, a yellow big bear in front, a black old cow following beside, Ji Ning walking behind.

  "This is the Temple of Execution." The yellow giant bear looked to the side at a closed, towering bronze gate. On the bronze gate was carved an axe and a long spear, with an aura of slaughter that made one's heart palpitate. Even the surface of the bronze gate seemed to be emitting a faint bloody red glow, which made Ji Ning's heart skip a beat.

  "It's called the Temple of War Gods." The yellow big bear said, "It's the most dangerous place in the entire Water Palace, and it's also a place full of opportunities."

  Most dangerous? Full of opportunities?

  Ji Ning was curious.

  "Let's keep looking ahead." The big yellow bear also didn't say much and walked forward directly.

  ……

  In the distance, the sound of flowing water faintly came, Ji Ning curiously looked at the already open wooden gate in front of her. The gate was open. Through the gate, looking inside, she could vaguely see the flowing water, saw the mountain rocks, and a solitary thatched cottage.

  "This is the Starry Hall." The yellow big bear stood in front of the hall, looking at the endless vast space inside. "Everything in the Starry Hall was arranged by the master himself. Living in the Starry Hall can even allow one to experience the subtleties of the Tao."

  "Ji Ning, the reason why Huahua Xianren can live for millions of years is because of this Starry Hall. The Starry Hall is full of the mysteries of the Tao everywhere. There are even complete 'Tao'... Huahua has the Starry Hall, and his realm is so high that he can survive one disaster after another, living for millions of years."

  "A complete Tao in every aspect?" Ji Ning was somewhat perplexed.

  "Everything has been told to you." The yellow big bear looked at Ji Ning, "Now the places you can enter are the main hall, this corridor, and the four sub-halls. Don't try to force your way into other places, even if you want to. Take care of yourself. I hope you can live until the day you become a Yuan Shen Dao person."

  Wow.

  The big yellow bear dissipated directly into a string of light spots and turned into nothingness.

  Ji Ning finally let out a breath of relief. He had always felt immense pressure when facing the Yellow Bear, as if he were facing some ancient and powerful demon god.

  "The spirit of the cave is like that." The black old cow smiled and said, "Not to mention you, even for Yunhua Xianren, this cave spirit doesn't care much. It's very proud. Actually, I think it's normal for the cave spirit to be proud after all these endless years, after all, Yunhua Xianren didn't really control this water mansion back then."

  Ji Ning seemed to be deep in thought, and nodded slightly.

  He immediately asked: "Senior, what should I do now that the four major divisions are separated? Please advise."

  "First go to the Treasure Hall." The black old cow said, "Follow me, I'm very familiar with it."

  "Good." Ji Ning felt that the black old cow was much easier to talk to than the yellow great bear of the Cave Heaven.

  ******

  Treasured Hall

  Ji Ning and the Black Ox simultaneously entered it, and suddenly felt like they had entered another world. High above, treasures floated in mid-air, some of which emitted powerful fluctuations that made Ji Ning's heart tremble with fear. Even a slight fluctuation could crush him into powder. The power was far beyond his imagination.

  "Treasures!" The black ox sighed, its eyes shining brightly. "All treasures! Even the Celestial Master Huahua was drooling over these treasures back then, but unfortunately, he couldn't get his hands on them. If only these treasures were obtainable, Celestial Master Huahua would probably have transcended to become a celestial being long ago."

  Ji Ning was also moved by it.

  Look at the blood-colored war spear above, the war spear looks very simple, but just floating there, it makes the surrounding void faintly shatter, and then the void recovers. Shattering, recovering, shattering... This goes on continuously.

  "These were all left behind by the first generation master." The black old cow continued, "They are for the masters of later generations to cultivate and train. Therefore, if you want to obtain these treasures, you must follow his rules. Otherwise, even if you are as powerful as the Jiuhua Immortal who died in the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations, you will not be able to take away a single treasure."

  Ji Ning was curious: "What rules? How can we get these treasures?"

  "Go take a look over there." The black old cow nodded its head to the side, and Ji Ning followed the direction of its gaze, seeing that on the distant wall were densely packed small characters, all of which seemed to be divine magic symbols.

  Ji Ning walked up and read it all in one breath.

  "So it was like that." Ji Ning frowned.

  The treasure of Zhenbao Hall... it's entirely possible to obtain.

  There are two ways.

  The first is the enhancement of the Divine Demon Refining Body Realm.

  When the cultivation of the divine demon reaches the level of the purple mansion, you can choose one 'human rank method treasure' or other items of equivalent value in the Treasure Hall.

  When the cultivation of the divine demon reaches the level of Wanxiang, one can choose an 'Earthly Treasure' or a rare object.

  When the cultivation of the divine demon reaches the level of the yuan god, you can choose one 'heavenly rank treasure' or a strange object.

  Return to the virtual level, you can choose 'Xian Jie Fa Bao'...

  Crossed tribulation successfully, became a heavenly deity! Can choose 'Pure Yang Treasure' or a rare item.

  "Treasures are actually divided into five levels." Ji Ning muttered to himself, "The Purple Mansion can only drive human-level treasures, the Wanxiang can only drive earth-level treasures, the Yuanshen can only drive heavenly-level treasures... above that there are also Xian-level and Chunyang."

  About these, Jing Ning had never heard of them before, previously he only knew about the Entry Stage Treasure.

  "Treasures are mainly divided into five grades." The black cow beside him said, "And for human-grade treasures, there are also top-grade, high-grade, medium-grade, and low-grade distinctions. For example, the Purple Mansion cultivators in your Yan Mountain area, although they all use human-grade treasures, most of them are only human-grade lower or medium-grade at best. But if you were to choose freely from the Treasure Pavilion, I believe you would naturally pick the best ones."

  Ji Ning listened carefully, and these were all things he didn't even know himself.

  "The later it gets, the harder it is to obtain a treasure." The black old cow said, "A returned Void Earth Immortal can stimulate the growth of an immortal treasure, but this immortal treasure... is already considered a precious item among immortals. How many Returned Void Earth Immortals can get such treasures? Very few, those scattered earth immortals and loose immortals generally use heavenly treasures."

  "That year, the Xian Hua immortal's demonic body was stuck at the Yuanshen level. No matter what, he couldn't break through to the Fanzhuo level. Breaking through in terms of Qi cultivation is useless." The black old cow shook its head, "So he never got a Xian-grade treasure."

  "Ah." Ji Ning was taken aback.

  Yes.

  Boundary breakthroughs can obtain treasures, but that is the aspect of divine demon cultivation. As for cultivating qi? No matter how high the cultivation is, one cannot obtain treasure bestowals. From this, it can be seen that the first generation master obviously hopes that later generations of masters will pay more attention to divine demon cultivation.

  Later, Yun Hua Xianren failed to cross the tribulation and became a scattered immortal. After years of tempering, his strength grew stronger. Afterwards, he broke through the seventh layer of the War God Temple, and only then did he receive a Xian-grade treasure. The black old cow said, "Later on, Yun Hua Xianren collected a large amount of materials, which allowed him to defeat Qian Jia Xianren. He obtained several hundred flying swords from Qian Jia Xianren in exchange for materials... and finally managed to forge me."

  Ji Ning was curious: "Senior, what rank is your magic treasure?"

  "Nature is the treasure of the immortal rank." The black old cow said proudly. "Our immortal family's treasures have already transcended the three realms of heaven, earth and man, only then will they give birth to spiritual wisdom. Hong Hua relied on me to create his illustrious reputation!"

  "You are now a Demonic Cultivator with only an Innate Spirit Body. To obtain a Treasure, you must brave the War God Temple." said the black cow.

  Ji Ning nodded.

  There are two ways to obtain treasures in the Treasure Pavilion. The first is to upgrade the Divine Demon Refining Body Realm, and the second is to venture into the War God Temple, which has a total of ten floors.

  Clearing the first or second floor of the Temple of War Gods. You can choose one human-grade magic treasure or an equivalent rare item.

  After passing through the third or fourth layer of the Temple of War Gods, you can choose one piece of land-based magic treasure...

  After passing through the fifth or sixth floor of the War God Temple, you can choose one heavenly rank magic treasure...

  After passing through the 7th or 8th floor of the War God Temple, you can choose one Immortal-grade treasure...

  After passing through the 9th or 10th floor of the War God Temple, you can choose one pure Yang method treasure...

  The masters of the Water Palace have two chances to storm the Temple of God in each realm of the Divine Demon Refining Body. For example, Ji Ning is now a pre-heavenly Spirit of the Divine Demon Refining Body, so he has two chances to storm the Temple of God. When the Divine Demon Refining Body reaches the Purple Mansion, there will be another two opportunities.

  Prenatal spirit, Zifu, Wanxiang, Yuanshen, Fanxu.

  Before becoming an immortal, there were actually only ten chances! Each one was precious beyond measure!

  "It's too difficult to charge into the Temple of War Gods." The black old cow shook its head and sighed, "But this is the second way to get the treasure of the Treasure Pavilion. It's hard but we have to try."

  "It's tough." Ji Ning nodded. Even Lian Zhihua Xianren had spent many years as a loose immortal before breaking through the seventh floor of the War God Temple.

  The black old cow beside him said, "I also saw you practicing sword on the island of Winged Snake Lake. It's not to belittle you, but with your current strength going through the first layer... the possibility is less than one in ten."

  "Less than 10%?" Ji Ning couldn't believe it.

  The War God Temple has a total of ten floors, and the first two floors are just selecting human-grade treasures. I was practicing swordsmanship on Ming Xin Island... All within the range of this Water Palace's exploration, my own strength is clear to that black old cow, yet it said that I don't even have the possibility of passing the first floor of the War God Temple.

  "Treasures Hall, Divine Ability Hall, War God Hall, Starry Sky Hall." The black old cow said, "Treasures Hall, you can't get a single treasure now. You also can't enter the Divine Ability Hall. Can only go to the other two sub-halls."

  "War God Temple... maybe you can try to make a move, if you succeed, you'll be able to choose a magic treasure. It's absolutely better than the low-grade magic treasures you have now. Of course, if you lose, it will waste one of your chances to challenge the War God Temple."

  "Xīng chén diàn, yùn hán zhe yī tiáo tiáo dào, shì wù dào de hǎo dì fāng."

  Translation: "The Star Hall contains many paths and is a good place to understand the Tao."

  "Where are you going?" The black old cow looked at Ji Ning.
