Chapter 262: The Cause of War the Struggle for Resources and the Notion of the Tribulation Cultivator


Although he now has more than eighty percent confidence in advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.

But if he could have the Nascent Soul Pill and the Embryo Formation Pill.

Then his success rate of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage would reach ninety-nine percent.

The only problem is that the Nascent Soul Grass and Nascent Soul Flower required for refining those pills are not easy to obtain.

If he relied only on himself, it would likely take a significant amount of time and effort.

So.

He naturally hoped to start from the sect side.

At this moment, True Monarch Xuanyuan listened to Ji Haoyuan's response.

He didn't have any doubts about Ji Haoyuan's abilities.

But he still showed a slight wry smile on his face.

"To be honest, there is still one Nascent Soul Flower in the sect's treasury for refining the Embryo Formation Pill.

But as for the Nascent Soul Grass needed for refining the Nascent Soul Pill, we really don't have any at the moment."

"What, you have the Nascent Soul Flower?"

Ji Haoyuan's eyes lit up slightly.

No matter what, having that one Nascent Soul Flower in the sect can save him a lot of effort.

Thus, next, he only needs to find a Nascent Soul Grass to try to gather all three treasures for advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.

That will also be the day he truly steps into the Nascent Soul stage.

Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan immediately inquired about the matter of the Ancient Ruins emerging in the Beimang Mountain Range.

Seeing Ji Haoyuan ask about this, True Monarch Xuanyuan immediately understood his intention.

"If I'm not mistaken, you want to check out that Ancient Ruins in the Beimang Mountain Range to see if there's Nascent Soul Grass, right?"

True Monarch Xuanyuan slowly shook his head.

"I advise you, it's best not to have that idea."

This time, even before Ji Haoyuan inquired, True Monarch Xuanyuan went on to explain:

"To be honest, an Ancient Ruins did indeed emerge in the Beimang Mountain Range.

But according to our investigation, that Ancient Ruins is not left by our Human Race, but belongs to the Demon Race.

In other words, only members of the Demon Race, more accurately, only those at the third-tier class of great demons, can enter the ruins."

"An Ancient Ruins that only third-tier great demons can enter?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan couldn't help but frown slightly.

If that's the case, his idea of sneaking into the ruins seems infeasible.

"That's right."

True Monarch Xuanyuan nodded.

"Although we also don't want the Demon Race to have such an opportunity.

But the ruins are located within the Beimang Mountain Range.

Unless a Divinity Transformation figure from our Human Race is willing to intervene, no one can prevent them from seizing the opportunity within."

Indeed.

Attempting to cause trouble in someone else's territory, even a Great True Monarch would find it difficult, let alone us.

What's most ironic is that a war is currently erupting among the great sects of the Nascent Soul stage within our Human Race.

This undoubtedly weakens the overall strength of our Human Race cultivators.

As if seeing through Ji Haoyuan's thoughts, True Monarch Xuanyuan couldn't help but sigh, somewhat helplessly saying:

"Junior Brother Nanhua, this war between us, the True Words Sect, and the Five Elements Demon Sect is not merely a simple feud, but involves many aspects.

Among them is competition over numerous resource points."

"Hmm...?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan couldn't help but show a hint of confusion on his face.

He wasn't particularly aware of this situation.

"Do you know that between the territories of our Demonstration Sect and the True Words Sect, there are several large Spirit Stone Ore Veins and large Primordial Gold Ore Veins?"

"Large Spirit Stone Ore Veins? Large Primordial Gold Ore Veins?"

Ji Haoyuan couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

As a Core Elder of the Demonstration Sect, just one step away from advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.

Ji Haoyuan naturally knows what large Spirit Stone Ore Veins and large Primordial Gold Ore Veins mean.

The former is a stable source of upper-grade Spirit Stones.

It may even produce supreme-grade Spirit Stones.

And supreme-grade Spirit Stones are extremely valuable cultivation resources for Nascent Soul True Monarchs and even Great True Monarchs.

As for the large Primordial Gold Ore Veins, they can steadily produce upper-grade Primordial Gold, with some probability of producing supreme-grade Primordial Gold.

Upper-grade Primordial Gold is the main material for refining many Magical Treasures.

And supreme-grade Primordial Gold is one of the main materials for refining True Treasures.

One might ask.

Who would easily give up such crucial resource points, be it strategically or otherwise?

In the past.

Our two sects have often clashed over this issue.

Currently, it's merely bringing those past conflicts and disputes to the forefront.

Similarly, the situation is quite similar between the Five Elements Profound Sect and the Five Elements Demon Sect.

However, their situation is more complex compared to our Demonstration Sect and True Words Sect.

It even involves disputes over philosophy and orthodoxy.

All in all.

The war has already started.

Unless a Divinity Transformation-level force intervenes, it won't easily end in the short term.

After leaving True Monarch Xuanyuan, Ji Haoyuan first made a trip to the sect's treasury.

Using the personal letter from True Monarch Xuanyuan and his contributions to the sect, he took the one Nascent Soul Flower from it.

Though there is currently no Alchemy Master in the sect besides him who can refine the Embryo Formation Pill.

But someone might still want to use it to attempt Alchemy again.

Or even, someone might directly attempt to use it to advance to the Nascent Soul stage.

Although this likelihood is not high.

Ji Haoyuan still felt that it would be better and safer to let the item fall into his own hands first.

As for whether anyone would be dissatisfied later.

It's a joke.

Ji Haoyuan taking away the Nascent Soul Flower wasn't for free; he paid with sect contributions.

At most, it was just a green light on some permissions.

In contrast, he was more concerned about where he could obtain the Nascent Soul Grass from.

Also, what treasures were actually within the Ancient Ruins in the Beimang Mountain Range.

Yes.

Ji Haoyuan was still contemplating the possible opportunities in the Beimang Mountain Range.

But limited by his identity as a Human Race member, it was simply impossible to "stow away" into the Ancient Ruins.

Of course.

Such an action would indeed be too risky.

Unless absolutely necessary, he would never adopt such an aggressive approach.

But then again.

No matter what treasures or opportunities, they ultimately have to fall into people's hands.

Since he couldn't set his sights on the Ancient Ruins, why not think from another angle and see if he could find a way to gain from the great demons coming out of the ruins?

Conveniently, his Treasure Spirit Fox could detect the presence of great treasures from Demon Beasts.

This way, perhaps Ji Haoyuan could consider becoming a "Tribulation Cultivator" himself.
