What Heavenly Earth Elixirs did the Profound Realm Key get exchanged for?

"The offers came from the Purple Sun Sect of the Eastern Desolation Domain and the Yin Sha Sect of the Southern Desolation Domain. Each had one Heavenly Earth Elixir to offer."

"The Purple Sun Sect's offering is the Mysterious Meridian Spiritual Herb, which permanently broadens a Cultivator's meridians and improves cultivation speed by about thirty percent."

"When casting Spells and Divine Skills, it consumes more Spiritual Power but can also enhance the power of Spells and Divine Skills by about thirty percent."

"What the Yin Sha Sect brought out is the Earth Origin Spiritual Milk Core. As long as it's placed in a location rich with nature's spiritual energy, it can absorb and condense Earth Origin Spiritual Milk."

"After consuming Earth Origin Spiritual Milk, one can quickly recover Spiritual Power; it's considered a rare treasure from heaven and earth."

"Decide for yourself what you want to exchange for."

The Profound Realm Key was originally for Jia Ren to exchange for treasures; deciding which Heavenly Earth Elixirs to exchange for still required his own choice.

Are there no Creation Fruits or Five-Colored Lotuses? Heavenly Earth Elixirs are rare, and once obtained, they're typically used immediately. Such Heavenly Earth Elixirs that can improve one's Cultivation Level are hard to retain. The Mysterious Meridian Spiritual Herb works on oneself and can increase cultivation speed to a certain extent. Swallowing Spiritual Medicine, combined with rich nature's spiritual energy, increases cultivation speed. Not to mention, it also has the effect of increasing the power of Spells and Divine Skills. The Earth Origin Spiritual Milk Core isn't bad either, continuously producing Earth Origin Spiritual Milk—this substance can rapidly recover Spiritual Power and is highly practical. It could even compensate for the significant Spiritual Power consumption, a known weakness of Divine Transformation-grade Magic Treasures. This is a treasure that can be passed down through generations. If it weren't for the Yin Sha Sect's desire to exchange for the Profound Realm Key, they would never have offered the Earth Origin Spiritual Milk Core under any circumstances.

I want both... Unfortunately, one cannot have both the fish and the bear's paw. He would not actively rob the Yin Sha Sect for treasures...

"The Earth Origin Spiritual Milk Core is, after all, an external object!" Jia Ren mused. "High-quality Elixirs can substitute to a certain extent, but the Mysterious Meridian Spiritual Herb is the real treasure. Even if I go to the Mysterious Realm, I likely won't be able to exchange Spirit Stones or ordinary treasures for it."

Treasures that improve cultivation progress always take top priority; the Mysterious Meridian Spiritual Herb can enhance cultivation speed. For an ascetic Cultivator, its preciousness surpasses even the one-time effect of the Five-Colored Lotus.

Without the slightest hesitation, Jia Ren decisively replied, "Exchange for the Mysterious Meridian Spiritual Herb!"

Wang Fugui was not surprised by Jia Ren's choice and said with a smile, "The Profound Realm Key wouldn't be so cheap. In addition to the Mysterious Meridian Spiritual Herb, you can choose any ten treasures from the Purple Sun Sect's treasury."

The Profound Realm Key was one of the few treasures that could leave the Sealed Land; the Purple Sun Sect would go to great lengths to exchange for it, even if it meant selling everything they owned. One Heavenly Earth Elixir would not suffice for an exchange with the Profound Realm Key; there were ten additional treasures involved. These ten treasures weren't junk—facing a Divine Transformation Cultivator, they wouldn't dare any deceit.

"Thank you, Wang Daoyou," Jia Ren replied.

Wang Fugui had traversed the Four Great Desolate Domains and visited more than a dozen top-tier Sects to arrive at this outcome.

"I've already notified the Purple Sun Sect," he said. "You simply need to go there in person to claim the treasures."

Wang Fugui and Jia Ren's interests were tied together, so there was no need for superficial courtesies. The coordinates for the Purple Sun Sect in the Eastern Desolation Domain were provided.

Heading to the Eastern Desolation Domain? He wouldn't mind making the trip if it meant claiming advantages, even if they were a bit farther away. One couldn't expect a Divine Transformation Cultivator to handle every detail; Wang Fugui had done plenty already. Ten treasures suited for oneself also had to be personally selected and couldn't be entrusted to others. The treasury of a top-tier Sect was vast, and the Purple Sun Sect's treasury likely wouldn't disappoint.

Remembering the coordinates provided by Wang Fugui, Jia Ren put away the Tongluo Sound Disc. The Insect External Incarnation left the Mountain and Sea Pearl, stowing it in its Dantian, and flew towards the Eastern Desolation Domain.

Ever since his Cave was moved to the Mountain and Sea Pearl, every corner of the world felt like home. There was no need to worry about the Cave being robbed after leaving, and he could enjoy the rich Spirit Vein spiritual energy for cultivation anytime, anywhere. His main body's cultivation wouldn't be affected; the only drawback was that the Insect External Incarnation had to bear the burden of travel.

After seven days of long-distance travel, covering more than twenty thousand li, the Insect External Incarnation sensed something and looked towards the southwest. In the distance, disjointed 'body parts' hovered, supported by an invisible force and scurrying erratically.

"Stop right there!" A long-haired head, gritting her teeth in frustration, chased after the scattering limbs and arms.

Having seen such a scene before, the Insect External Incarnation was no longer surprised.

A Split Bizarre?! This thing hasn't been sealed yet?

Before Jia Ren advanced to the Golden Core Stage, he had encountered a Split Bizarre. At the time, not yet having refined the Demon-Sealing Tower Treasure and being weak, he hadn't wanted to provoke it. After more than a decade, he encountered a Split Bizarre once again.

This is an inescapable fate. It's destined to be sealed within the Demon-Sealing Tower Treasure and put to my use.

"Capture!"

The Great Handprint of Capturing descended, and the many scattered body parts were reassembled, gathering together. Light from the Profound Black Treasure Mirror poured down, gradually dissipating the Split Bizarre's power. The separated body parts recombined into a long-haired female Cultivator.

Realizing she had been 'pieced' back together and completely exposed, the woman's cheeks flushed red. "I am Miss Liu," she said. "Thank you, Daoyou, for saving my life. The Split Bizarre continuously divides its Bizarre Body. The Town Demon Alliance only ever captures its false bodies; they haven't found its true body yet."

Jia Ren spoke impassively, "Where is the Split Bizarre?"

Now that he had encountered it, he couldn't miss out, regardless of whether it was the true one or not. He had to give it a try.

"It's over there!" Miss Liu pointed towards the distance, but before she could continue, Jia Ren had vanished from her sight.

Where did he go? she wondered.

「Twenty li away」

A man with a face that seemed to be both crying and laughing stood in the distance. His body was not like that of an ordinary person; each limb was separated by a three-cun gap. Each body part possessed its own Spiritual Nature, seemingly longing to break free from its restraints and move independently.

A Split Bizarre?!

Three Cultivators stood back-to-back, encircled by the faint glow of a Purple Jade Ruyi that firmly protected them.

"First, help Miss Liu gather..." the leading Golden Core Cultivator began, but heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing a voice transmission. "Frosty Snowfall!"

He consumed a Tribulation Evasion Pill and, with a wave of his hand, a vast expanse of ice and snow descended from the sky. Tribulation Evasion Pills were among the few Elixirs that affected Bizarre Demons; upon consumption, a Cultivator's Spiritual Power carried a unique Tribulation Evasion force, enabling their Spells to counter Bizarre Demons. Hundreds of the Split Bizarre's divided bodies froze instantly. The three Cultivators swiftly drew their demon-suppressing Magic Artifacts and struck, suppressing the Split Bizarre.

Is it over? The Insect External Incarnation stood in the distance, observing the Split Bizarre sealed within the Jade Pot, yet did not intervene. Activating his Heavenly Vision, he surveyed his surroundings, searching for something. He couldn't shake the feeling of being watched but couldn't pinpoint the source. Jia Ren had a premonition that this Split Bizarre was not its true form.

Tiny iron fragments lay scattered on the ground. The Insect External Incarnation showed no further interest and departed, riding its Escape Light.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist, for the rescue..." The three Cultivators, aware that the newcomer had saved their companion, were about to express their gratitude but found that the person had already left.

"What a peculiar fellow..."

"We truly owe this mysterious Daoist. Without him, at least one of us would have perished." They had hesitated to act because Miss Liu had fallen victim, her body splitting apart. If they had sealed the Split Bizarre then, the separated Miss Liu would also have died on the spot. This was the greatest challenge in dealing with the Split Bizarre: once its area of influence expanded, sealing it became even more difficult.

"Hurry, take it back to the Town Demon Alliance and confirm whether it's the true Split Bizarre or a false one." The Town Demon Alliance had sealed hundreds of Split Bizarres before, but all those caught were subordinate bodies, which did not regenerate after death. They possessed treasures capable of killing Bizarre Demons, but killing one personally and handing it over to the Town Demon Alliance were different matters. If a Split Bizarre died at their hands, they wouldn't gain any contribution points from the Town Demon Alliance. When a Split Bizarre was turned in, the main difference between the true body and a subordinate body was the amount of contribution points received.

"Let's go!" The Purple Jade Ruyi was retracted. The three Cultivators, reuniting with the recently returned Miss Liu, rode their Escape Lights and hurried towards the Town Demon Alliance in the Western Wasteland Domain.

They were only halfway there when an unsettling sensation suddenly overcame their bodies.

"Not good!" Miss Liu recognized the feeling and quickly took out her demon-suppressing Magic Artifact.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

CRACK!

Her body parts, like fragmented components, rapidly detached themselves. Aside from her head, all other limbs developed their own will and instincts, gaining freedom as they joyfully fled into the distance.

"Wasn't the Split Bizarre sealed?!"

"Is there more than one Split Bizarre?!"

The four were shocked and enraged, never expecting such a turn of events. Their earlier delight from sealing the Bizarre Demon had instantly turned into a bitter trap.

Aren't Split Bizarres supposed to have low intelligence, acting purely on instinct? Could it be that what was hidden was the main body of a Split Bizarre, one they had never caught before?!

"There it is?!" The metallic fragments left behind by the Insect External Incarnation vibrated gently. The next moment, the departed Incarnation materialized out of thin air. His Heavenly Vision, glowing with a peculiar golden light, fixed on the distance, locking onto the source of the eerie power.

"Found you!"

Tens of li away, an ant-sized Split Bizarre concealed itself on a treetop, its aura deep and restrained. Had it not made a move just then, Jia Ren wouldn't have detected the lurking creature. The moment his spiritual sense locked onto it, the Split Bizarre's form wavered, and it split into two, fleeing in different directions. Jia Ren couldn't distinguish the real from the fake by appearance alone.

"Trying to run?!"

This Bizarre Demon was different from any he had encountered before; it possessed considerable intelligence, though it didn't seem very courageous. Usually, when ordinary Bizarre Demons encountered Cultivators, it was the Cultivators who fled. Yet this Split Bizarre, upon facing him, chose to escape immediately. Did it sense a formidable threat emanating from him?

"Do you think you can escape?"

The Insect External Incarnation pointed. The Seven Star Sword transformed into a streak of silver light, shooting towards one of the fleeing Split Bizarres. Simultaneously, he activated a Talisman engraved with a thirty-three-layered Treasure Pagoda, which manifested as a true Demon-Sealing Tower.

"Five Metals Divine Escape!"

The Insect External Incarnation vanished and reappeared instantaneously on the Seven Star Sword, riding it forward. He tossed the Demon-Sealing Tower from his left palm. It flew out, growing at an astonishing rate, and in the blink of an eye, became a colossal tower ninety-nine zhang tall.

"Suppress!"

Demon-Suppressing Rosy Light erupted from the Demon-Sealing Tower, with black radiance shooting out in all directions. The two fleeing Split Bizarres froze in place, unable to move an inch. Regardless of which was real or fake, before the might of the Demon-Sealing Tower Treasure, neither had any place to hide.
