Chapter 223: Obtaining the Nascent Soul Spirit Item

"This!"

Zhou Sui sensed that the power within the Dream Soul Gu was more than ten times stronger than before, and its internal space had expanded further, capable of containing even more dream worlds.

Countless Dream Runes began to emerge within its body, appearing to shimmer with seven-colored light.

Its body also seemed to manifest more colors.

Most importantly, its skill Nightmare had also evolved, forming a Dream Domain.

"Dream Domain!"

A glimmer of light flashed in Zhou Sui's eyes; he sensed the information transmitted from the Dream Soul Gu, realizing the skill Dream Domain was incredibly formidable—once released, it would cover a Dream Domain within a radius of ten miles.

Any living being staying within the Dream Domain would fall into a dream.

As long as one could not leave the Dream Domain, they would be unable to extricate themselves, unable to distinguish the difference between reality and illusion.

Even if one possessed a Dharma Treasure capable of resisting Soul Secret Techniques, it would be difficult to contend with the power of the Dream Domain.

Unless one escaped the range of the Dream Domain as quickly as possible, they could not avoid its influence.

"A Third-tier Dream Soul Gu has actually reached this level?!"

Zhou Sui was taken aback.

Although he knew the Dream Soul Gu had infinite potential and immense power, it was only after truly advancing to the Third-tier realm that it began to display its true strength.

The power of the Dream Domain alone was enough to sweep away countless Cultivators.

Of course, for him, this was naturally a good thing.

The stronger the Dream Soul Gu, the better.

"This Yu Family Golden Core Real Person is actually playing dead?"

Seeing this scene, Lin Yazhu was also very surprised.

She had originally thought the opponent had turned into charred remains and was definitely dead.

Who could have imagined that the opponent still had a glimmer of life.

Fortunately, her husband was cautious; otherwise, she might have really fallen for it.

"It's normal; these Cultivators are all sinister, cunning, and full of tricks."

"Moreover, there are many life-saving arts in the world of immortal cultivation; who knows which one they have mastered."

"Even if the opponent turns into a charred corpse, one must never be careless."

Zhou Sui had long been accustomed to such things and had encountered such playing-dead Cultivators several times.

Unfortunately, in front of his Dream Soul Gu, it was all to no avail.

Whether the opponent was dead or not, devouring their soul would reveal the truth.

"What is the background of this Yu Family Supreme Elder? Why do I feel an ominous aura coming from this guy?" Lin Yazhu frowned, not hiding her disgust for this Yu Family Supreme Elder in the slightest.

This came from the Golden Thunder Bamboo, the Dharma Treasure she cultivated, which was incredibly repulsed by all evil auras in the world and could not tolerate them.

"Your intuition is correct."

"This Yu Family Supreme Elder is a mole for the Heavenly Demon Sect."

Zhou Sui said in a deep voice.

This was also the information he obtained from Yu Feng's soul; to be honest, when he received this information, he couldn't help but be shocked, not expecting the opponent's identity to be so startling.

He had originally thought the opponent was just an ordinary family Cultivator; who knew they had such close ties to the Heavenly Demon Sect.

"A mole for the Heavenly Demon Sect? What exactly is going on here?"

Lin Yazhu was also shocked.

She knew her husband possessed a Soul Searching Secret Technique capable of searching the soul memories of enemies; as long as the opponent had not been dead for too long, he could perform a Soul Search, and the enemy's memories could hardly be hidden.

"On the surface, the reason the Yu Family rose to power and produced five Golden Core Cultivators was due to an encounter at a Nascent Soul Cave Abode."

"Little did anyone know, this was all just an excuse Yu Feng made up."

"These few Golden Core Cultivators actually originated from the Heavenly Demon Sect; they simply hid their names and joined the Yu Family."

"That is why a small Golden Core family could produce five Golden Core True Persons in the same generation."

Zhou Sui sighed.

Thinking about it carefully, there was indeed something suspicious about this matter.

After all, the probability of five Golden Core True Persons appearing in one family at the same time was truly astonishing.

No matter how one looked at it, there had to be something fishy.

However, the Yu Family was powerful and could be considered a hegemon in this sea area.

Even if someone was suspicious, no one dared to say anything.

Because no one dared to assert that a family could not produce five Golden Core True Persons in the same era.

"What exactly does the Heavenly Demon Sect want by sending their own Cultivators to hide in the Yu Family?"

"Now that they are dead, won't the Heavenly Demon Sect come to cause us trouble?"

"Could it be that the Heavenly Demon Sect has set their sights on us?"

Lin Yazhu was a bit worried about this.

"Rest assured, this operation was purely Yu Feng's own reckless decision."

"He was wary of the development of our Xianxia City."

"At the same time, he also considered himself the hegemon of this sea area and naturally would not allow us to develop and grow here."

"That is why he gathered other Golden Core Cultivators to launch an attack on us in secret under the guise of Robber Cultivators."

"However, this guy was indeed a pawn of the Heavenly Demon Sect; now that he is dead, the Heavenly Demon Sect might really set their sights on us."

Zhou Sui's expression was also a bit grave.

To be honest, he was simply sitting at home when disaster fell from the sky.

He was clearly living peacefully and developing within the Samsung Island Group, so who could have imagined that this group of fellows would recklessly come to raid Xianxia City? Isn't this just seeking their own deaths?

Of course, he couldn't just obediently wait for death, so he could only let these fellows die.

He couldn't just commit suicide himself just to avoid offending the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Of course, he wasn't particularly worried about the threat of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Admittedly, the other party is a Nascent Soul Sect, with a Nascent Soul Ancestor sitting in command.

But they would absolutely not go to such great lengths just for the deaths of a few Golden Core spies.

Do they really think a Nascent Soul Ancestor is a hired thug who can be summoned at will?

However, even if a Nascent Soul Ancestor truly chose to take action.

He still wouldn't be particularly worried.

Because he has a Teleportation Gu on him, allowing him to take his wives and concubines and run away at any time, teleporting ten thousand miles.

Even a Nascent Soul Ancestor could not catch up to him.

But a Second-tier Teleportation Gu is not considered particularly safe.

At the very least, it must be promoted to the Third-tier realm; that way, he could teleport a million miles, and only then would it be as stable as Mount Tai.

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui felt even more urgent about improving his cultivation.

If he could promote to the Golden Core Realm, then his safety would have a huge guarantee.

It wouldn't be like it is now, living from day to day.

"Husband, what exactly is the Heavenly Demon Sect's goal? Do they want to deal with the Wuji Alliance?"

Lin Yazhu asked curiously.

She knew that for a Nascent Soul Sect like the Heavenly Demon Sect to plant some Golden Core True Persons in the outer regions, it certainly wasn't as simple as one might imagine; there might be a heaven-shaking conspiracy.

"It is indeed to deal with the Wuji Alliance."

"But this Supreme Elder of the Yu Family is of too low a rank; it seems he isn't qualified enough to know the inside information about this matter."

"He only knew that he was lurking on Yu Family Island according to the orders of the Heavenly Demon Sect."

Zhou Sui was also unable to obtain much useful information from the other party's memories.

Now, he can only meet the situation as it arises.

He hopes the Heavenly Demon Sect will not launch a massive attack on Xianxia City because of this incident.

"This!"

Lin Yazhu also didn't expect that she would be involved in the struggles of the Nascent Soul powers of this sea area so quickly, and that she had accidentally stumbled upon the conspiracy of the Heavenly Demon Sect; it was truly a stroke of bad luck.

This couldn't be blamed on her for not being cautious enough.

It was purely that this group of family Cultivators came to seek death, and they had no choice but to fight back.

"Forget it, actually there is no need to worry so much."

"We are worried about the Heavenly Demon Sect, but has the Heavenly Demon Sect not also been worried that we might leak their plan?"

"Let's treat this matter as if it never happened; tonight, no Golden Core Cultivators came to invade."

"In this way, perhaps the Heavenly Demon Sect will think these Golden Core Cultivators were killed by someone else."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes and immediately made a decision: to remain still, act as if nothing had happened, and buy himself some time to develop.

Anyway, as long as the Heavenly Demon Sect's Nascent Soul Ancestor doesn't move, then there is nothing to worry about.

He doesn't believe that for the deaths of a few Golden Core spies, the Heavenly Demon Sect would go to such great lengths.

"Understood, Master."

Lin Yazhu nodded; she also felt that this approach was the best, as it avoided provoking the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Moreover, ambushing and killing ten Golden Core Cultivators would definitely cause a sensation within the Wuji Alliance, making Xianxia City a target for everyone.

It might even attract the attention of a Nascent Soul Ancestor.

Leaking such news would simply be more trouble than it's worth.

It would be better to act as if nothing had happened.

"Why do you still call me Master? Didn't I tell you to call me Husband from now on?"

"Do you think I am not qualified to be your Dao Companion?"

Zhou Sui changed the subject, looking at Lin Yazhu very domineeringly.

Seeing such a gaze, Lin Yazhu's heart trembled, her pretty face flushed, and her heart raced; she simply couldn't look directly into the eyes of the man in front of her—he was just too charming.

She felt the temperature in her body seemed to be rising.

When did this man become so domineering?

But such a domineering Zhou Sui also seemed to be full of charm, making her unable to resist.

"I, I thought you would like it."

Lin Yazhu stammered; she was a little flustered, not knowing what she had done wrong.

Originally, she thought this little trick of hers would make this man unable to resist.

But now, it seemed something had gone wrong.

"What do you mean by 'thought I would like it'? You are too presumptuous."

"Don't demean yourself."

"The one I like is you as Sect Master Lin."

"Not you, who compromises just to please others."

"It is enough for you to just be yourself; no matter what you are like, I like you very much."

Zhou Sui looked at Lin Yazhu affectionately, a trace of mysterious aura permeating his body.

"Husband."

Lin Yazhu had never heard such words before; she looked at Zhou Sui with watery, beautiful eyes, and a warmth seemed to surge from the depths of her heart. It was the first time in her life she had felt this way.

Could this be the legendary love?

How could it be so wonderful?!

She felt that her previous three hundred-plus years had been lived in vain; this was the first time in her life she had been so valued by a man.

Now she finally understood why women in the world loved sweet talk and words of affection.

Because such words were truly irresistible to a woman, leaving her with no way to fight back.

She felt that she had been completely captured by this man.

None of her little thoughts could be hidden from this little man.

Whoosh!

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Sui waved his large hand, immediately taking away all the Storage Bags left behind by the Golden Core Cultivators on the ground, and then cast Fireball Technique to burn all the corpses into ashes, destroying the evidence.

Immediately after, he held Lin Yazhu in his arms, activated the Teleportation Gu, and returned to Lin Yazhu's boudoir once again.

The joy of fish and water between the two of them was, naturally, self-evident.

…………

The next morning, the rising sun ascended.

After a night of rest, both Zhou Sui and Lin Yazhu felt refreshed and incomparably wonderful, and at the same time, both of their cultivations had improved by a large margin.

Such spiritual communication had immense benefits for both parties.

Compared to bitter cultivation alone, it was unknown how many times faster it was.

Now Zhou Sui was also taking stock of this harvest.

After all, the Storage Bags of ten Golden Core Real Persons, even if they were not their entire wealth, were still a significant portion of their wealth, enough to make him fill his pockets to the brim.

"Not bad, not bad, there are actually fifty thousand High-grade Spirit Stones."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin, feeling very satisfied.

Added together, there were fifty thousand High-grade Spirit Stones in the Storage Bags of these Golden Core Cultivators; although these were not the most valuable treasures in their Storage Bags, they were still quite good.

After all, High-grade Spirit Stones were very precious.

Every single High-grade Spirit Stone was a strategic resource, and many Golden Core Real Persons were reluctant to take them out for exchange.

So, being able to obtain so many High-grade Spirit Stones could be considered a huge profit.

"Eight Inferior Grade Dharma Treasures, two Superior Magic Treasures."

"This can also be considered a good harvest."

Zhou Sui smiled slightly; these Dharma Treasures were all the life-bound Dharma Treasures of the Golden Core Cultivators. Now that they were dead, they naturally became ownerless Dharma Treasures that could be refined by others.

Among them, the two Superior Magic Treasures were naturally the Kui Ox Drum and the Vermilion Bird Ring.

During last night's battle, these two Superior Magic Treasures had truly shone brilliantly.

They had caused him no small amount of trouble.

Every Superior Magic Treasure was extremely precious; basically, even with money, one might not be able to buy one.

Even some poorer Nascent Soul Ancestors only used Superior Magic Treasures.

So one could imagine the preciousness of a Superior Magic Treasure.

"Wait, husband."

"Could this be the Spirit Medicine for forming an infant, the Thousand Year Moon Flower Grass?!"

Just at this moment, Lin Yazhu couldn't help but cry out, widening her beautiful eyes, simply unable to believe her own eyes.

She saw that a large amount of Spirit Medicine and Spirit Material had been stored within these Storage Bags.

One type of Spirit Medicine was extremely precious, and it was precisely the Thousand Year Moon Flower Grass.

At this very moment, her body couldn't help but tremble, incomparably excited.

Because every portion of Spirit Medicine for forming an infant was precious beyond imagination.

Even within this sea area of the Wuji Alliance, it was worth a fortune.

It was something that couldn't be bought even with money.

Unless one was a core member of the Wuji Alliance and had obtained huge Contribution Points, it would be impossible to exchange for a portion.

She had never expected that she would actually find a portion of Spirit Medicine for forming an infant here; it was truly beyond imagination.

"This should have been left behind by the Yu Family Supreme Elder, Yu Feng."

"His cultivation had also reached the Golden Core Late Stage, and he had the hope of advancing to the Nascent Soul."

"So he also spent a huge fortune to exchange for a portion of Spirit Medicine for forming an infant from the Heavenly Demon Sect."

"But before he could even start using it, it fell into our hands."

Zhou Sui immediately found the origin of this Spirit Medicine for forming an infant from his memory; it was indeed left behind by the Yu Family Supreme Elder, Yu Feng, and it was originally exchanged from the Heavenly Demon Sect for his own infant formation.

Yet, he never expected that the result would be to the benefit of Zhou Sui and Lin Yazhu.

"But what is the function of the Thousand Year Moon Flower Grass, and why is it a Spirit Medicine for forming an infant?"

Zhou Sui asked curiously.

"Husband, I should have told you before that forming an infant also requires passing three barriers."

"The first barrier is Shatter Core Form Infant."

"But if one wants to pass this barrier, the Golden Core Dharma Power must be incomparably pure; even if there is a trace of impurity,"

"it could potentially lead to failure in forming the infant."

"The problem is that more than ninety-nine percent of Golden Core Cultivators have Dharma Power filled with various impurities."

"Besides some Golden Core Cultivators having problems with their cultivation techniques, the biggest reason is because of Pills."

"Every medicine has three parts poison, and Pills are no exception."

"In order to increase the Dharma Power within their bodies, Golden Core Cultivators have no choice but to consume a large amount of Pills."

"However, this also leads to the integration of many impurities into the bodies of Golden Core Cultivators, containing Pill toxins."

"At this time, we need some special spiritual items to help us expel the Pill toxins from our bodies and clear the impurities from our Dharma Power."

"Anything that can achieve this is called a Nascent Soul formation spiritual item."

Lin Yazhu explained.

Moreover, it is an unavoidable matter for Golden Core Cultivators to consume Pills to increase their Dharma Power.

Every Cultivator needs to fight against the heavens for their life.

If they were to rely on their own bitter cultivation, even until they died of old age and their Longevity was completely exhausted, they would be unable to advance to Golden Core Perfection.

Therefore, Golden Core Cultivators need to consume a large amount of Pills to increase their cultivation and Dharma Power.

This is almost an inevitable matter.

It can be said that apart from Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivators, even Cultivators with Superior Spiritual Root aptitude cannot rely on bitter cultivation to raise their cultivation to the level of Golden Core Perfection before their Longevity is exhausted.

Therefore, using Pills to increase Dharma Power has become an inevitable matter.

But this will also bring difficulties when forming the Nascent Soul.

"Could it be that Thousand Year Moon Flower Grass has the effect of purifying Dharma Power?"

Zhou Sui instantly understood what Lin Yazhu meant.

"That's right."

"There are many Spirit Medicines in the world that can purify Dharma Power."

"But after reaching the Golden Core Realm, there are very few Spirit Medicines that can purify the Dharma Power of a Golden Core Cultivator."

"Thousand Year Moon Flower Grass is one of them."

"It is a Spirit Medicine formed only after devouring the essence of the moon, forming the power of moon essence within its body, and finally growing for a thousand years."

"Once consumed, the vast power of moon essence will help the Golden Core Cultivator expel impurities from their Dharma Power, and even cleanse the marrow and cut the meridians, expelling the Pill toxins from the body; it can be said to have infinite wonderful uses."

"However, this kind of Spirit Medicine is truly too precious; it needs to grow for at least a thousand years to form, and ordinary Cultivators cannot wait for it to mature even if their Longevity is exhausted."

"At the same time, it is also quite difficult to cultivate this kind of Spirit Medicine, as the growth environment is extremely harsh."

"So this also leads to Thousand Year Moon Flower Grass being extremely scarce and precious."

Lin Yazhu sighed with emotion.

That is why she felt that this time was truly too lucky; to actually find a Nascent Soul formation spiritual item from the Storage Bag of a Golden Core Cultivator was simply like a pie falling from the sky.

"But this is only passing the first hurdle; the next two hurdles may not necessarily be passed."

Zhou Sui reminded her.

"This is already quite good; it can increase the probability of forming a Nascent Soul by ten percent."

"I don't know how many Golden Core Cultivators want to madly snatch it, but they all seek it in vain."

"Most Golden Core Cultivators cannot even pass the first hurdle, let alone hope for the second or third."

"Of course, if there is a Spirit Medicine that helps pass the second hurdle, the Heart Demon Tribulation, it can also be called a Nascent Soul formation spiritual item."

"But such Nascent Soul formation spiritual items are even rarer and more precious."

"As for the third hurdle, the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, I have the Superior Magic Treasure Golden Thunder Bamboo, which can weaken the power of the Heavenly Tribulation to the greatest extent."

"If I can successfully pass the first two hurdles, then the third hurdle will be a sure thing."

Lin Yazhu's beautiful eyes revealed a glimmer of excitement.

She felt that after waiting for such a long time, she finally saw a glimmer of hope.

"Heart Demon Tribulation?!"

Hearing this, Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes, revealing a glimmer of light; he felt that he might be able to help Lin Yazhu pass this hurdle.

Because the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra he practiced seemed to have a huge restraining effect on Heart Demons.

If he were to perform this technique, perhaps he could devour the Heart Demon.

At the same time, he could also use the power of the Dream Soul Gu to help digest the Heart Demon.

If it could really succeed, then the success rate of Lin Yazhu forming a Nascent Soul would increase to over eighty percent.

However, he did not say it out loud for the time being.

After all, his cultivation was still too weak right now, merely at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

Performing the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra with such cultivation might not necessarily be of much use.

But if he were to advance to the Golden Core Realm, it would be completely different.

So his main goal now was still to increase his cultivation and advance to the Golden Core Realm as soon as possible.

But this was not something that could be done in a single day.

Fortunately, Lin Yazhu and he still had very long lives, so there was no need to rush.

…………

At this very moment, Yu Family Island.

The Yu Family Head, Yu Ming, now looked ashen, looking at the four Life Tablets in his ancestral hall, which were currently in a shattered state.

This meant that the four Core Formation Masters of the Yu Family had all died.

He stayed in the ancestral hall for a whole night, his hair almost turning white overnight, and he did not dare to leave at all.

Because he knew what kind of terrifying impact it would bring if this matter were to spread.

By then, the Yu Family might not be able to hold onto Yu Family Island.

Even the enemies of the Yu Family would take advantage of the situation and launch an attack on the Yu Family.

It would not take long before the Yu Family might be wiped out and completely extinct.

By then, he would become a sinner of the Yu Family.

"How could it be like this?"

"Wasn't it said that this operation was foolproof?"

"Why did the Supreme Elder and the others all die this time? What on earth happened?"

"Could it be that Xianxia City is truly some kind of dragon's den and tiger's lair?"

Yu Family Head Yu Ming's expression was ugly to the extreme.

Right now, he regretted it so much his intestines had turned green.

If he had known earlier that Xianxia City contained such unfathomable power, he wouldn't have dared to provoke Xianxia City even if it meant death.

But now, saying anything was already too late.

This could not make up for the previous mistakes.

Supreme Elder Yu Feng and the others could also not be brought back to life.

Hum hum~~

Just at this moment, the Communication Talisman on Yu Ming's body suddenly rang; his expression changed, and he immediately knew who the other party was—it had to be the contact from the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Naturally, he had also joined the Heavenly Demon Sect long ago.

Basically, all the slightly core personnel of the Yu Family were Cultivators of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

They had joined the Wuji Alliance for hundreds of years and were basically all moles for the Heavenly Demon Sect, responsible for passing the Wuji Alliance's information to the Heavenly Demon Sect; relying on the resources obtained from the two major powers, the Yu Family had developed extremely rapidly.

"My lord."

Yu Family Head Yu Ming did not hesitate and immediately connected the Communication Talisman, and then a bewitching voice came from the other side of the Communication Talisman, the kind that sinks into one's heart.

"Speak, what exactly is going on? Why did your Yu Family lose four Golden Core Cultivators? What exactly did you all do?" On the other side of the conversation was, surprisingly, a female Golden Core Cultivator from the Heavenly Demon Sect.
