Please don't take it to heart, Fellow Daoist Xu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan briefly looked around and sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion, smiling. \"We cultivators do not care about such trivial things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Chuanxing poured Xu Chuan a cup of spirit tea and then asked, \"By the way, what brings Fellow Daoist Xu to Profound Moon Prefecture?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just passing by. I wanted to pay a simple visit to Fellow Daoist Sun, and afterward, I need to make a trip to the Profound Moon Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wish to thank the Ancestor of Profound Moon for his words of assistance in the Land of Imprisonment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, it would be hard to say whether this one would even be alive right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With Fellow Daoist Profound Moon taking action, it was naturally resolved with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this one feels that even without anyone's help, Fellow Daoist Xu would have still been confident in escaping from the demon race.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fellow Daoist Sun overestimates me. That was a great demon at Peak Shapeshifting!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Chuanxing simply smiled and did not argue. \"In these past few centuries, this is the first time I've seen Fellow Daoist Profound Moon take such good care of someone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps it is because of my son, Mingxian.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, judging from Fellow Daoist Sun's tone, could it be that you and the Ancestor of Profound Moon are from the same generation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A slight ripple formed in Sun Chuanxing's heart as he replied, \"Fellow Daoist Xu has very sharp intuition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be completely honest, he and I can barely be considered peers of the same generation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, I stepped into the Nascent Soul stage a step ahead of him, but after that, our fortunes became completely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the Golden Core stage, I was considered a genius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after entering the Nascent Soul stage, I remained trapped in the Early-Stage Nascent Soul for centuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Fellow Daoist Profound Moon advanced triumphantly, his cultivation base improving at a speed no less than when he was in the Golden Core stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He established the Profound Moon Sect and, while only at the Mid-Stage Nascent Soul, forcibly shook a Great Nascent Soul Cultivator, severely crippling a top Nascent Soul Noble Family in the central part of Heavenly South.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One feat after another...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haha, I've said too much and made a fool of myself in front of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Chuanxing smiled apologetically. \"In short, compared to him, I am nothing more than an ordinary genius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in Fellow Daoist Xu, I can see the former grace and bearing of Fellow Daoist Profound Moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The same can even be said for your noble clan's Phoenix Plume Fairy and Xu Mingxian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three generations, all producing peerless geniuses; it truly leaves this old man burning with envy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Sun Family has a heritage spanning over three thousand years. How could this one not be envious of that?\" Xu Chuan said. \"I am just afraid that my Xu Family stands out too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tall tree catches the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only those who survive until the end can have the last laugh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then we just confront soldiers with generals, and water with an earthen dam, fighting back until no one dares to provoke us anymore. Who hasn't walked this path step by step?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This one has learned much,\" Xu Chuan said, cupping his hands slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two chatted idly for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Xu Chuan spoke up. \"By the way, as I was strolling through Heavenly Ape City today, I noticed the city was bustling and prosperous, not much inferior to Profound Moon City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is clear that the Sun Family governs it well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is just a pity...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A pity about what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan smiled. \"It seems some people are using the Sun Family's name to commit acts of bullying. Perhaps it's just wicked servants deceiving superiors and bullying subordinates.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Chuanxing frowned slightly. \"Such a thing is happening? I will immediately send a message and have someone investigate the matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank you for informing me, Fellow Daoist Xu.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not at all. This one simply felt that with the Sun Family's three-thousand-year heritage, it wouldn't lose control over the discipline of its clan disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it is just a misunderstanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If my Xu Family can one day reach the same scale as the Sun Family, this one would have no regrets for three lifetimes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, Xu Chuan brought up his desire to open up trade with Profound Moon Prefecture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Chuanxing immediately offered his assistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two had a very pleasant conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over two hours later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan bid his farewell and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It didn't take long for the matter regarding the Fan Family to reach Sun Chuanxing's ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition to that incident, there were many similar cases. Flying into a great rage, he immediately ordered severe punishments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some servants were executed, some branch lineage members had their cultivation bases crippled, and even some direct lineage members were ordered to reflect on their faults behind closed doors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Wenwan was returned to the Fan Family shortly after, and the Sun Family even offered some resources as an apology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fan Family was naturally overjoyed and did not dare to say anything more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brother and sister embraced and wept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This incident further cemented Fan Wenceng's determination to strengthen his own power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, none of this had anything to do with Xu Chuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving Heavenly Ape City, he headed to the Profound Moon Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Welcoming Xu Chuan at the mountain gate was True Lord Qingxuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His strength had also reached Divine Ability Perfection, making him one of the elders in this generation of the Profound Moon Sect with the highest hope of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fellow Daoist Qingxuan,\" Xu Chuan greeted with a smile and clasped fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True Lord Qingxuan returned the gesture in kind. \"Fellow Daoist Withered Glory, what brings you here so suddenly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is your noble sect's Sect Master present?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True Lord Qingxuan replied, \"The Sect Master is currently in secluded cultivation and is not seeing guests for the time being. Without the Ancestor's permission, even we elders are not allowed to disturb him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems that once he comes out of seclusion, he should be able to step into the Mid-Stage Nascent Soul. This one will offer early congratulations to your noble sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are too polite, Fellow Daoist Withered Glory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This one wishes to visit the Ancestor of Profound Moon. I wonder if the Senior has any free time?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will need to inquire about that first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True Lord Qingxuan immediately sent a message to Zhang Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan was slightly surprised but still instructed him to bring Xu Chuan to Profound Moon Peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ancestor, I have brought Fellow Daoist Withered Glory. Qingxuan will take his leave now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, he looked at Xu Chuan. \"Little friend Xu, what brings you to my place?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This junior has specifically come to thank Senior for speaking out for justice that day.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even putting aside the fact that you saved Daoran, just knowing that we hail from the same place, and that you are Mingxian's father, is enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could not simply stand by with folded arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for thanks... hehe, I am confident I can see through you to some extent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You didn't come here just to make small talk with this old man, did you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you here to ask about the Ancient Battlefield? The True Demons of Demon-Suppressing Mountain? The Ancient Prodigy Token? Or perhaps the Heavenly South Ancestral Vein?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan looked at Xu Chuan. \"If I am not mistaken, you came here regarding the Ancient Prodigy Token, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What makes you say that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Ancient Battlefield is in the past, so there is nothing worth asking about it. Demon-Suppressing Mountain involves my own secrets, so I presume you wouldn't dare pry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the Heavenly South Ancestral Vein, it is something that has been searched for in vain for millennia. How could clues about it be easily discovered?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the Ancient Prodigy Token, which can be exchanged for rewards and is related to the next Prodigy Grand Assembly, is the matter your Xu Family should be most concerned with.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior's eyes are like torches. This junior is utterly filled with admiration,\" Xu Chuan smiled, offering a well-timed compliment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speak, how many has your Xu Family obtained?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To be completely honest with Senior, this junior holds three pieces.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan's eyes widened slightly. Stroking his beard, he smiled faintly. \"Your Xu Family truly possesses extraordinary fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across both the Heavenly South and Black Water regions, the nine Hegemon-Level Nascent Soul Powers couldn't even manage to gather an average of two each.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet your Xu Family actually managed to find three.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is purely a matter of luck.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan was not lying. He hadn't encountered a single one himself; it was all thanks to Xu Mingheng's sheer luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speak plainly. What do you wish to exchange them for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does the Profound Moon Sect have any Tier 3 Life-Extending Pills? This junior is willing to trade one Ancient Prodigy Token for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Life-Extending Pills?!\" Zhang Fan said in astonishment. \"If I remember correctly, you haven't even reached a hundred and fifty years of age yet, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Consider it a case where preparedness prevents calamity. I wonder if you have any?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We genuinely do not. Golden Core cultivators have a lifespan of five hundred years. Unless their time is drawing near, ordinary cultivators won't actively seek out Longevity Pills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's better to accumulate resources and exchange them for cultivation pills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one has no hope of reaching the Nascent Soul stage, finding one will only extend their life by a few decades anyway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then do you know where I might find one?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tier 3 Longevity Pills are rare, but Heavenly Alchemy Sect might have some in stock. Give me one Ancient Prodigy Token.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can help you procure one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It just so happens that I am planning to make a trip there recently. You can come along with me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the matter you raised last time regarding the trade to refine the Tribulation-Crossing Pill...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you can defeat him in the Dao of Alchemy, the Tribulation-Crossing Pill will be handed over to you to refine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as you proposed, fifteen pills or fewer will belong to the Profound Moon Sect. Any excess will go to your Xu Family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How do you plan to use the remaining two tokens?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Xu Chuan pondered for a moment. \"I previously heard that the Clear Void Sect has an extremely powerful Withering and Thriving Inheritance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If possible, this junior would like to trade one token for the complete inheritance of this Dao.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Trading it purely for an inheritance is somewhat of a loss, but considering how flawlessly it aligns with you, it is indeed worth an Ancient Prodigy Token.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the final one?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Have you decided what you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don't want to exchange it for a compatible High-Grade Innate Spirit Item?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Golden Core cultivators of my Xu Family are all still quite young and have yet to fully tap into their potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, one Ancient Prodigy Token can only be exchanged for a single item.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan shot him a blank look. \"Do you think High-Grade Innate Spirit Items are as common as cabbages?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among Nascent Soul Powers, they are considered top-tier heritage. Unless it is an absolute last resort, they are not lightly used.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan chuckled somewhat awkwardly. \"By the way, how is Demon Lord Tianluo doing nowadays?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you suddenly asking about him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This junior was thinking, if he still has a remnant soul left, I wouldn't mind trading for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you want his remnant soul for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just to casually study it,\" Xu Chuan said offhandedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Him... this old man still has uses for him,\" Zhang Fan mused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, Xu Chuan brought up the three materials required for the Profound Sun Longevity Pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them was used to formulate the Profound Yang Spirit Water, while the other two were life-extending spirit medicines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fusing the three together in a single furnace was the only way to maximize the life-extending effects, allowing a Golden Core cultivator to extend their lifespan by eighty years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The conditions you raise are truly demanding.\" Zhang Fan gave a helpless smile. \"It is honestly not easy to pry an Ancient Prodigy Token from your hands.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is Senior's noble righteousness at work. If it were any other Hegemon-Level Power, they might have simply forced this one to hand them over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I would have loved to handle this simply, but compared to sowing enmity with your Xu Family, the tokens are not quite worth it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan thought for a moment. With a flick of his sleeve robe, two Ancient Prodigy Tokens flew out. \"One serves as the payment for the Profound Sun Longevity Pill, and the other is a token of gratitude for the many times Senior has lent a helping hand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Things given for free are often the most expensive. Little friend Xu, you should still state what you require.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, could this junior learn about the true purpose of collecting the Ancient Prodigy Tokens?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trading for this secret should be something Senior can accept, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since that's the case, this old man will shamelessly accept. This matter can't exactly be called a secret, but it indeed isn't widely known.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ancient Prodigy Roll is a Fortune Spirit Treasure forged by the many ancient powers of the Heavenly South to suppress and manage the destiny of the human race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In ancient times, prodigies at the Golden Core stage and above could enter the Prodigy Grotto-Heaven to obtain spirit items, inheritances, or magic treasures that perfectly suited them. At the same time, they would be bestowed an Ancient Prodigy Token, which imperceptibly enhanced their personal providence and even the destiny of their affiliated sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are one hundred and eight Prodigy Tokens in total. Thirty-six are bestowed upon Golden Core prodigies, while seventy-two are bestowed upon Nascent Soul prodigies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the prodigies in each tier, the higher their ranking, the denser the providence they receive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the blessing of massive providence, an entire sect would enjoy smooth sailing for a long period of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So it is a struggle for providence. That might have been normal in the ancient Heavenly South, but nowadays...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as the Golden Core arena opens, those who secure a ranking will definitely be blessed by providence. However, the more crucial aspect is the opportunities found within the Prodigy Grotto-Heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps among the cultivators who obtain these opportunities, someone will be able to break through to Divine Transformation in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once any faction gives birth to a Divine Transformation cultivator, there's a high probability they will be able to unify the entire Heavenly South, or the Black Water Region.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about the current Divine Transformation experts?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are merely relics left over from the Ancient Era and cannot intervene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as their true bodies do not appear, how could mere avatars be a match for a real Divine Transformation entity?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the surviving Divine Transformation experts from the Ancient Era cannot act, then why can newly ascended ones do so today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It likely involves the rules of the Heavenly Dao. Even this old man is not entirely clear on the specifics. The only thing that is certain is this:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultivators who cultivate to the Divine Transformation stage in the current era will not be restricted by heaven and earth for a hundred years, allowing them to attack without any reservations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan's eyes flickered. He paused and said, \"If this junior is guessing correctly, Advancing to Divine Transformation in this era also has something to do with providence, doesn't it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are indeed intelligent,\" Zhang Fan replied with a faint smile, stroking his beard as he looked at Xu Chuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although it is a bit early to tell you this now, I think highly of you. Sooner or later, you will join our ranks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan continued, \"To advance to Divine Transformation, the most basic requirement is for your cultivation realm to reach Nascent Soul Perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secondly, you must break through the realm barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is no need to elaborate on this; Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul all have their own realm barriers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can wear it down slowly over time, or you can rely on heavenly materials, earthly treasures, pills, and the like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, you yourself should already have a profound understanding of just how difficult this hurdle can be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirdly, your divine soul must resonate with heaven and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This process can only be comprehended on your own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once you accomplish this, after breaking the realm barrier, you can channel the Power of the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth to temper your body, significantly enhancing your physical form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through this ordeal, you will at least approach the Third-Tier Physical Body level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, it will baptize your divine soul, vastly increasing its strength and allowing your nascent soul to mature into a corporeal Primordial Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strength of a Divine Transformation expert lies not only in their Primordial Spirit and mana but also in their ability to manipulate the power of heaven and earth with every casual movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their pressure is worlds apart from the previous three stages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the suppression of a powerful Primordial Spirit and worldly pressure, even a Nascent Soul cultivator's overall strength would immediately be restricted by twenty to thirty percent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention the fundamental difference in the quality of their mana.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan's eyes glinted slightly as he asked, \"What about the Dharma Idol Phantom? Rumor has it that this is a prerequisite for entering the Divine Transformation stage, isn't it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan smiled and looked at Xu Chuan. \"In this era, anyone who is not a peerless genius at the Nascent Soul level has no chance of stepping into the Divine Transformation stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And to become a prodigy, comprehending a Dharma Idol Phantom is mandatory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, once comprehended, it provides significant benefits for breaking through the realm barrier and resonating one's soul with heaven and earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even as a newly ascended Divine Transformation expert, their combat power in the Initial Soul Transformation stage would absolutely not be weak; they might even be comparable to those in the mid-stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, successfully cultivating a Dharma Idol Phantom is no small feat—it requires the corresponding inheritance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can never succeed by piecing together fragmented divine abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This condition alone blocks more than half of all Nascent Soul cultivators. Only the Hegemon-Level Nascent Soul Powers and top-tier factions hold complete inheritances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, a few peak rogue cultivators might also have a chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It all depends on one's own opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even among those who possess an inheritance, the number who successfully cultivate it is pitifully small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If a Great Cultivator from a top-tier faction manages to succeed, they can elevate their faction to a Hegemon-Level Power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No wonder the Profound Moon Sect can oversee the Northwest Region with only three Nascent Soul cultivators.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan sighed in realization, then cupped his hands and bowed to Zhang Fan. \"Thank you for answering my questions, Senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you have any other questions?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Has Senior ever met a Divine Transformation cultivator?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then are there many Divine Transformation factions in the Heavenly South and Black Water regions?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very few. Some Divine Transformation experts only wander as avatars, playing with the mortal world. The Su Clan in the central Heavenly South is one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tantai Noble Family in the Blackwater Region is another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both are top-tier Nascent Soul Noble Families, yet their heritage is no weaker than a Hegemon-Level Nascent Soul Power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for any others, this old man is not entirely certain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they all invisibly influence the situations in both the Black Water and Heavenly South regions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even some rogue Nascent Soul cultivators, and perhaps even Great Nascent Soul Cultivators, might actually be disciples trained by them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do Hegemon-Level Powers like the Azure Cloud Sect and Clear Void Sect have Divine Transformation experts backing them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you think?\" Zhang Fan narrowed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This junior understands,\" Xu Chuan said. \"That concludes my questions. That Ancient Prodigy Token belongs to Senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, follow me to the Heavenly Alchemy Sect shortly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan sent a message to the other Grand Elder of the Profound Moon Sect, who was also his good friend, Perfected Tianya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After making a few arrangements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan and Xu Chuan departed for Profound Moon City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside Profound Moon City, Xu Chuan brushed his sleeve over his face and instantly changed his appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan did the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two exchanged a knowing smile; everything was understood without words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little friend Xu, your skills are quite formidable. Not only can you alter your face, but you can even mask your aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>May I ask what method you used?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is a divine ability, coupled with the Dao of Withering and Flourishing that I cultivate. However, I have not mastered it yet, as Senior saw right through it at a single glance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There aren't many things in this world that can deceive this old man's eyes,\" Zhang Fan stroked his beard and smiled faintly, offering no further explanation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then he suddenly realized that his current disguise was that of a young man, completely lacking a long beard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Dao of Withering and Flourishing is indeed profound. It appears to have already reached perfection, so why must you seek the Withering and Thriving Inheritance from the Clear Void Sect?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Merely to use as a reference. Besides, Divine Ability Perfection does not mean that the Dao itself is perfected.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan's pupils contracted slightly. \"It seems you know quite a lot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"True intent is nothing more than insignificant fragments of the laws.\" Xu Chuan did not hide his knowledge, smiling as he spoke. \"As far as this junior knows, divine abilities are divided into Lesser Divine Abilities and Greater Divine Abilities.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, they were classified as such in ancient times. But nowadays...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan gave a soft sigh. \"Greater Divine Abilities can generally only be cultivated by those at or above the Divine Transformation stage. For a Nascent Soul cultivator, attempting to comprehend them is obscure and arduous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a true peerless genius could possibly grasp the basics of a Greater Divine Ability during the Nascent Soul stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they only master twenty to thirty percent of the introductory level, it would still be significantly stronger than a perfected Lesser Divine Ability.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Xu Chuan thought of the two Greater Divine Abilities he was currently comprehending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was the Dao of Life and Death, and the other was the Dao of Creation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both were incomparably profound paths of the laws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Zhang Fan were to learn of this, he would probably cry out in shock and call him a monstrous genius!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They arrived at the teleportation array plaza.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place was guarded by Golden Core elders of the Profound Moon Sect to prevent anyone from causing trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan flashed a token. Without needing to pay any fees, the two monopolized the array and were directly transported to Heavenly Alchemy City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Heavenly South, the number one sect for the Dao of Artifacts was the Heavenly Foundry Sect in the south, while the number one sect for the Dao of Alchemy was the Heavenly Alchemy Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the unique nature of both sects, the cities near them were all equipped with Grand Teleportation Arrays.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this Heavenly Alchemy City?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly after teleporting in, Xu Chuan immediately smelled the scent of tens of thousands of spirit medicines permeating the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the scent was extremely faint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Xu Chuan did not possess the [Shennong's Hundred Herbs] talent, he likely wouldn't have been able to detect it so easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It truly is a great city of alchemy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan glanced at him and smiled faintly. \"This city gathers Grandmaster Alchemists and grandmasters from all over the Heavenly South.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alchemy families that are rarely seen elsewhere are completely ordinary sights here in Heavenly Alchemy City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even my Zhang clan has descendants who have entered the Heavenly Alchemy Sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing his interest piqued, Zhang Fan added, \"The spirit grasses you desire are incredibly rare, but here in Heavenly Alchemy City, there is hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the next seven days, you are free to roam around the city. This old man also needs to go visit a good friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the pill duel...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I will take you to the Heavenly Alchemy Sect in seven days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Senior,\" Xu Chuan said, clasping his fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan waved his hand dismissively and flew off into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan unfurled his divine sense to survey the surrounding area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, many of the buildings and pavilions were protected by restrictions that blocked divine sense. Although they could not stop him, forcibly breaking through them would inevitably lead to discovery and would be rather unseemly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, Xu Chuan chose to follow the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever he spotted spirit grasses that his 'Xu Clan's Grotto-heaven' Spirit Medicine Garden lacked, he would purchase and pocket them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could gather all the spirit grasses in the world in one place, it would be a monumental achievement for Xu Chuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply put, he was a collector.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just half a day, he had discovered hundreds of spirit grasses that he previously lacked, though they were all Tier 1 or 2.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tier 3 and above were rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two days later, he stumbled upon a street stall where a Gray-Robed Man was displaying several rare Tier 3 spirit grasses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was even a stalk of a Tier 4 Profound Yang Flower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Profound Yang Flower was the key ingredient for refining the Profound Yang Spirit Water, and it only grew in places of extreme yang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After his divine sense detected it, Xu Chuan flashed over and appeared in front of the stall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much for this spirit medicine?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gray-Robed Man looked up at Xu Chuan, his face hidden in the shadows of his hood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this person wore a dharma tool similar to an Aura-Concealing Cloak, it could not hide him from Xu Chuan's Nascent Soul level divine sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite looking mysterious, he was merely a middle-aged man at Foundation Establishment Perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was disguised to sound a bit elderly as he casually said, \"Fellow Daoist can see that this spirit medicine is extraordinary, radiating a pure yang aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is immensely beneficial to those who practice fire-attribute and yang-attribute cultivation methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply trading it for spirit stones would not be worth it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'It seems this person doesn't recognize what this spirit medicine actually is,'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan immediately concluded. Smiling slightly, he asked, \"If not for spirit stones, then what does Fellow Daoist wish to trade for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have a junior who is approaching Core Formation. Unfortunately, his innate aptitude is limited, so he has to rely on items that assist with Core Formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Fellow Daoist has any such items, I will trade this spirit medicine to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This classic sob story made Xu Chuan want to laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't expose the lie, though. Instead, he frowned in deep thought. \"Items that aid in Core Formation are extremely precious. Although this spirit medicine is not bad, this poor Daoist feels it is not enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His main hesitation was that this Profound Yang Flower surprisingly lacked its roots and stem, meaning it could not be replanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unless Fellow Daoist tells me where it was grown.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gray-Robed Man pondered for a moment before replying, \"It's not that I am unwilling, but that place is incredibly dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for a serendipitous opportunity, I wouldn't have been able to harvest this spirit medicine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What kind of danger?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is a Fierce Sun Vicious Lion, a peak Third-Tier demonic beast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is not a problem. If Fellow Daoist is willing to trade, I will offer a High-Grade Spirit-Purifying Pill in exchange.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A High-Grade Spirit-Purifying Pill?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gray-Robed Man exclaimed. His eyes flickered, and seemingly making up his mind, he said, \"Alright, then it's a deal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being able to trade for a High-Grade Spirit-Purifying Pill naturally left the Gray-Robed Man overjoyed at the unexpected gain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan conveniently bought the rest of the rare Tier 3 spirit grasses as well before bidding farewell and leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were traded using spirit stones, costing him over three thousand pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan didn't linger. He immediately left Heavenly Alchemy City and headed for the location the Gray-Robed Man had described.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the Heavenly Sun Mountain Range, located five thousand kilometers away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Heavenly Sun Mountain Range was home to many fire-attribute spirit grasses. Being able to find a Profound Yang Flower meant the Gray-Robed Man truly had good luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan stood high in the sky, looking down at the valley below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deep within the valley, a mass of light, crimson as fire, occupied the entrance of a mountain cave, radiating scorching heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the light, a colossus could vaguely be seen sprawling on the ground, seemingly asleep but also appearing to be breathing and cultivating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So there really is a Fierce Sun Vicious Lion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Peak Third-Tier. He must be one of the three overlords of the Heavenly Sun Mountain Range.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan could faintly sense powerful auras radiating from several locations across the mountain range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'He is entrenched here, most likely to use the Profound Yang Flower to cleanse his bloodline and purify his fierce flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he can truly achieve that, he might have a sliver of a chance to step into the Shapeshifting Stage in the future.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan pondered for a moment. 'Since the Xu Family plans to develop the path of beast taming, it wouldn't be bad if I could subdue this demonic beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least, when our Beast Taming Sect branch is established, we will have a Sect-Guarding Spirit Beast!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Xu Chuan also knew that everything depended on whether the beast was willing to submit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Demonic beasts were stubborn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not all demonic beasts could be forced into submission with mere martial strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention a peak Third-Tier demonic beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, whether human or beast, everyone had weaknesses. As long as he painted a tempting enough future, he didn't believe the beast wouldn't take the bait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan's figure blurred as he dove straight down toward the valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, he landed directly in front of the cave entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instant his feet touched the ground, the Fierce Sun Vicious Lion opened its dark golden pupils. It looked as though raging flames were burning within its eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Human!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its roar thundered like lightning, carrying the terrifying pressure of a peak Third-Tier beast, causing the entire valley to tremble slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, a searing wave of heat surged toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It slowly stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its massive frame was about ten meters long. Its entire body was covered in crimson mane, and every strand of fur looked like burning flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was obvious that this was its shrunken form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True Third-Tier demonic beasts easily measured over twenty or thirty meters in length.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those of the python or flood dragon variety could even reach lengths of over sixty meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fierce Sun Vicious Lion's four limbs were thick as pillars. Wherever its sharp claws tread, the rocks instantly melted into pools of magma.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its dark golden eyes, as large as brass bells, were fixed intensely on Xu Chuan, filled with savage brutality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most astonishing thing, however, was the fierce, baleful aura wrapping around its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aura was so intense it almost condensed into physical form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This baleful energy was constantly eroding its sanity; it was most likely caused by its bloodline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It truly was a case of being made by one's bloodline, and destroyed by it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fierce Sun Vicious Lion glared at Xu Chuan, issuing a low growl from its throat. Its nose twitched as it sniffed the air, and then its pupils suddenly contracted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was you! You stole this King's spirit medicine!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, a furious roar shook the heavens and the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its body erupted with blinding crimson light. As the baleful aura shot into the sky, it kicked off the ground and transformed into a streak of red light, lunging violently at Xu Chuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its speed was incredibly fast; the air ignited wherever it passed, leaving a long trail of fire behind it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It intended to tear this human to shreds!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan's expression remained calm, and he didn't even take a half-step back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply raised a hand and pressed down lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A vast and unmatched wave of mana crashed downward. The Fierce Sun Vicious Lion, caught mid-pounce, suddenly felt as if a three-hundred-meter tall mountain was dropping directly onto its head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its massive body stalled, the momentum of its lunge completely broken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A trace of wariness crept into its furious eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Chuan flipped his palm. The Heavy Profound Seal floated above it, pulsing with dark light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you want a fight, I don't mind obliging!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You stole this King's spirit medicine...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop right there. Do you honestly think that, with this poor Daoist's strength, I would need to resort to stealing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I purchased that spirit medicine from another cultivator, and in doing so, I learned where the Profound Yang Flower originated from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You still have two or three Profound Yang Flowers left in your cave, don't you? It's just that they have not yet matured. That is exactly what this poor Daoist came for.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rage surged up in the Fierce Sun Vicious Lion's heart once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So you don't plan on sparing the rest of my spirit medicine either! Greedy human!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you are strong, this King will not let you have your way!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is no need to be so impulsive. This poor Daoist can tell that your bloodline is extraordinary.
