This is my test for you. If you truly are a great destiny bearer and can perceive the Nine Dragons, then you will surely obtain the Spear Intent Crystal within this Divine General Mountain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because whether you can obtain the Spear Intent here depends not on your cultivation base or your talent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It depends on only one thing: destiny!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you understand?” Jin Lan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you can obtain it, I can save your life!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you can’t, I’m sorry, hehehe… dear brother, even though I’ll regret you, I won’t be able to save you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng said nothing in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if the sole criterion here is destiny, he wasn’t certain he could truly obtain the Spear Intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, I was the one who saw the existence of the Nine Dragons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Lan added: “This Divine General Mountain opens once every hundred years, and for eleven consecutive cycles, no one has taken out the Spear Intent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?” He Pingsheng exclaimed. “It’s been eleven hundred years?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Lan said: “It’s been twelve hundred years!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twelve hundred years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That means, aside from the existing Soul Transformation elders, no one has ever witnessed the Spear Intent being taken out of the Divine General Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, a Nascent Soul cultivator’s lifespan is only a thousand years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine!” He Pingsheng took a deep breath. “I’ll give it a try!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Before I go, I need to change my appearance!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng pulled out a disguise talisman and reshaped himself into the likeness of a disciple from the Beast Taming Immortal Sect whom he had slain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least, he would avoid exposing his true face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One disguise lasted three days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After disguising himself, He Pingsheng walked beneath the luminous membrane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait…” Jin Lan hurried after him, leaning close and whispering: “Inside this barrier, you’ll see several seats. Do nothing—just sit quietly on one of them!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If fate favors you, you’ll naturally obtain the Spear Intent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obtain the Spear Intent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s the second step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first step is to see whether I can even enter this barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I can’t even get in, how can I hope to obtain the Spear Intent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng extended his right hand and pressed his palm against the black barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Lan’s eyes also revealed a hint of anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One breath, two breaths, three breaths!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After three breaths!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hummm…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The section of the barrier touching He Pingsheng suddenly turned ethereal, and then, as if pulled by an invisible force, he was sucked in with a swift whoosh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Lan’s lips curved into a pleasant smile: “Hehe… this kid actually made it in?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Looks like he’s almost certainly a great destiny bearer!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She slowly stepped back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless cultivators surged forward, trying to enter the barrier at the exact spot where He Pingsheng had just vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many believed He Pingsheng had succeeded because he chose the right position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng stepped into the barrier, and the pulling force that had drawn him in vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before him stretched a hazy, misty expanse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place was not much different from the outside!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everywhere were rocks, with ancient pines and cypresses growing in their crevices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid the thin mist, the pines and cypresses loomed faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no spiritual energy here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the air carried a faint, indescribable aura—complex and layered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It contained energy, sharp intent, and a trace of barely perceptible killing intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could this be the Spear Intent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng took a deep breath, and his metallic spiritual energy surged forth, flowing into the [Seven-Clasp Dark Gold Armor] he wore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Filling the Seven-Clasp Dark Gold Armor allowed it to withstand seven attacks from cultivators of the same realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition, He Pingsheng held the Nine Radiance Dragon-Slaying Flag in his hand, ready for immediate use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he walked forward step by step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The further he went, the thinner the mist became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After half an incense stick’s time, the mist vanished entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before him, the void was clear, blue, and brilliantly bright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet no sun could be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But above, a faint black membrane covered the thousand-zhang expanse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without doubt, this was the barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng quickened his pace, leaping forward while holding the Nine Radiance Dragon-Slaying Flag—each leap covering dozens of zhang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After another half incense stick’s time, he finally reached the location Jin Lan had described.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just seats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before He Pingsheng stood a pitch-black divine spear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The divine spear was entirely black, planted straight into the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Measured roughly, it was a zhang thick and a hundred zhang tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A terrifying aura surged from the divine spear, sweeping across the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around the great spear stood nine stone seats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three people already sat upon them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A woman in red robes, a middle-aged man in a pale moon-white robe, and a boy with red hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng’s arrival naturally drew the attention of the three ahead—they turned their heads toward him in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they gave no sign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng said nothing, stepped forward, and chose a seat at random to sit down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three powerful spiritual senses swept over him without restraint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng did not hold back—he returned their spiritual sense in kind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression turned wry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How to put it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None were Foundation Establishment Level Twelve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman was Foundation Establishment Level Eight!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man in the pale moon-white robe was only Foundation Establishment Level Four!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The highest cultivator was the red-haired boy—Foundation Establishment Level Nine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, it wasn’t cultivation base that determined entry here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Daoist!” The man in the pale moon-white robe bowed to He Pingsheng. “I am Guan Changsheng from Tianhe Commandery. May I ask your origin?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng smiled. “I am Shi Yuan from Dingxiang Commandery, Beast Taming Immortal Sect.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he was disguised, he naturally used a false name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps this false identity will cause some trouble for the Beast Taming Immortal Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Muddying the waters might even lead the white-haired cultivator to the Beast Taming Immortal Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng did not know that because of this false name, a Nascent Soul Elder of the Beast Taming Immortal Sect would die, and the sect would nearly be wiped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, that was another story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am Huo Haichao from Yunzhong Commandery,” said the red-haired boy, bowing to He Pingsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across from He Pingsheng, seated opposite him with the black divine spear between them, was the woman in red robes. She spoke coolly: “I am Jiang Qingyu, from the Great Qi Imperial Capital.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng noted the name with slight interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the Great Qi Imperial Capital, and surnamed Jiang—likely royalty.\u003C\u002Fp>",1158,"2026-06-21T04:09:00.242Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e3380edbc9f2ceb42c4d55ca82f41b9aa58cf59f3eead19e440499547646ff62","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-221","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-219",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-treasure-immortal-basin-cover.jpg"]
