: Late-stage Golden Immortal, Heading to Mount Buzhou

In the Treasure Cave, Jin Xuan slowly exhaled, and with a flick of his sleeve, two clusters of precious light appeared before him.

"I have gained a lot from this seclusion, and my cultivation has broken through to the late stage of Golden Immortal."

Previously, Jin Xuan had cultivated to the mid-stage of the Golden Immortal realm, and was not far from the late-stage of the Golden Immortal realm.

Two mid-stage Golden Immortals transformed their essence into spiritual energy and broke through to the late-stage Golden Immortal realm with ease.

He reached out and grabbed two orbs of precious light, which fell into his hands.

One of the clusters of precious light was actually a moon-white robe.

This robe is called the Taiyin Xuanshui Robe. It is a mid-grade acquired spiritual treasure made primarily of Xuanshui mineral marrow and Xuanyin stone, supplemented by dozens of kinds of spiritual minerals. It contains twenty-four acquired restrictions.

Among the mid-grade spiritual treasures acquired later in life, it is of the highest quality.

Wearing this robe makes one immune to supernatural powers and spells below the level of a Golden Immortal.

Once activated, it can increase the defensive effect of the Golden Profound Divine Power "All Rivers Flow Back to the Source" by a full 50%, making ordinary Golden Immortal level divine powers and spells basically negligible.

Another ball of precious light fell into Jin Xuan's hand, transforming into a blood-red short sword no more than a foot long.

This sword is a Blood Python Spiritual Treasure, supplemented with Geng Essence, and forged by the Snake Daoist's Poison Sac to become the Flying Blood Sword.

This sword possesses both the sharpness of Gengjing and the effect of potent poison. Coupled with the ability to launch surprise attacks with hidden weapons, its speed of attack is extremely fast. Once unleashed, it is like a red line, truly formidable.

After being refined by Jin Xuan, this sword also possesses twenty-four restrictions, making it a top-grade mid-level acquired spiritual treasure.

"Unfortunately, I do have the materials to refine spiritual treasures, but my refining skills and personal strength are insufficient to allow me to refine spiritual treasures of a higher grade."

Thinking of this, Jin Xian couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Before my previous life, I saw other transmigrators who, upon arriving in the prehistoric world, couldn't help but use their Earth Immortal or Heaven Immortal cultivation to refine top-grade or even supreme treasures.

But after traveling through time, he discovered it was simply impossible.

Without matching strength and formidable skill in crafting magical artifacts, attempting to create a powerful spiritual treasure is simply a pipe dream.

The materials used for refining the treasure are secondary; the real priority is to set up restrictions within the spiritual treasure.

Without extraordinary abilities, the difficulty increases exponentially with each additional layer of restrictions.

"However, this spiritual treasure is already sufficient for me. In the future, as my cultivation level increases and I acquire more materials, I can simply upgrade the grade of the spiritual treasure."

After all, Jin Xuan not only possesses acquired spiritual treasures, but also innate spiritual treasures that were nurtured by the primordial world, so naturally he doesn't need to set up restrictions like those for acquired spiritual treasures.

"Mysterious Water Escape!" Jin Xuan murmured as he put away his spiritual treasure. A muffled sound rang out, and dark black ripples exploded on the spot, spreading outwards in the void.

When they reappeared, they were already inside the cave, a thousand miles away.

In the blink of an eye, Jin Xuan seemed to be teleporting, constantly appearing in various corners of the cave.

"The Mysterious Water Escape is based on the Yin and Water elements. When used, it can cover a thousand miles in an instant. If one enters water, the effect is increased tenfold, reaching ten thousand miles in an instant."

"At only the late stage of Golden Immortal, it already possesses such formidable effects. When it reaches the Taiyi Golden Immortal or Daluo Golden Immortal level, this speed will likely surpass even that."

Jin Xuan smiled, quite satisfied with what he had gained from this seclusion.

Seeing Jin Xuan stop, the young boy Qingyu bowed to him, presented him with a jade bracelet, and said, "Master, the jade bracelet contains the spiritual roots and fruits that matured during your seclusion in your grotto-heaven."

Among them, thirteen Mysterious Spirit Fruits, forty Pure Heart Fruits, and ten Grade-Fine Spiritual Roots were produced…”

Qingyu spent half a day giving a thorough report.

Apart from the Xuanling Fruit, which is a top-grade innate spiritual root and is of utmost concern to Golden Immortals, the other spiritual roots and fruits are not so important.

Jin Xuan nodded in satisfaction, took out three Heart-Cleansing Fruits, placed them in a jade box, and pushed it in front of Qing Yu: "You have done a good job in taking care of the spiritual root. Please keep these three Heart-Cleansing Fruits carefully."

Upon hearing this, Qingyu was overjoyed: "Thank you for the reward, sir."

Then Jin Xuan activated the Myriad Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture, transforming all the spiritual roots and fruits that had accumulated magical power and enhanced his cultivation into spiritual energy, which he then stored within his body.

Thanks to the Myriad Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture, the treasure energy can be transformed into spiritual energy, doubling the efficiency of Jin Xuan's use.

Jin Xuan did not rush to convert spiritual energy into magic power and cultivation. Instead, he instructed Qingyu to guard the cave well and then went straight out the door.

At this very moment, many powerful beings from the primordial world were listening to the Dao within the Purple Cloud Palace.

As the saying goes, when the tiger is away, the monkey becomes king.

The strongest beings in the primordial world today are some cowardly Great Luo and Taiyi Golden Immortal beings.

With Jin Xuan's current cultivation level, as long as he doesn't provoke those overly powerful Taiyi Golden Immortals and Daluo, he can easily save his life by relying on the "Mysterious Water Escape" divine power.

The group of innate saints in Zixiao Palace listened to the Dao, and the past three thousand years in the prehistoric world were considered much safer.

Naturally, we must seize the opportunity and search for treasure.

We cannot waste time on cultivation.

By using the Myriad Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture, one can transform spiritual roots and fruits into spiritual energy and store it within the body, then slowly refine it to enhance one's magical power and cultivation.

Jin Xuan's destination this time is Mount Buzhou, the primordial pillar of heaven.

If we're talking about the place with the most treasures, then in the primordial world, Mount Buzhou is undoubtedly number one.

Furthermore, Mount Buzhou is at the top of the "must-see" list for transmigrators in the prehistoric world, so Jin Xuan naturally had to go and take a look.

Jin Xuan kept a low profile throughout the journey, using the Xuan Shui Escape Technique to travel. Whenever he encountered mountains or rivers, he would stop to explore the treasure caves and see the world.

Sure enough, the number of treasures increased after going out compared to staying at home.

In just over a century, Jin Xuan has already found over a hundred spiritual roots and more than a dozen low-grade innate spiritual treasures.

Among them are more than a dozen low-grade innate spiritual roots, five mid-grade innate spiritual roots, and one high-grade innate spiritual root named "Concentration Tree".

The leaves of the Concentration Tree have an excellent effect on calming the mind, focusing the spirit, and strengthening the vital energy.

The remaining spiritual roots are classified as lower or middle grade.

As for the low-grade innate spiritual treasures, Jin Xuan chose the "Purple Gold Bell" to refine.

This treasure is for trapping enemies; by covering them, it will imprison them within.

Of these spiritual roots and treasures, 30% were drawn here voluntarily by the influence of the Treasure Basin.

More than half of them were found by Jin Xuan using the Treasure-Seeking Cave Eye.

The remaining ten percent was taken from other living beings.

Although Jin Xuan kept a low profile, he was still targeted by some people.

However, he was quite powerful, and several Golden Immortals died at his hands.

Even a Golden Immortal at the peak of his cultivation had died at his hands. Twenty years ago, Jin Xuan even encountered Meng Ji, a mid-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal.

Meng Ji was extremely fierce, and Jin Xuan avoided fighting him, running away whenever he saw him.

The Xuan Shui Escape technique covered thousands of miles in an instant, saving his life.

Jin Xuan also figured out his current strength; among the Golden Immortals, he was basically invincible.

He can hold his own against early-stage Taiyi Golden Immortals, but against mid-stage Taiyi Golden Immortals, he is no match and is completely at a disadvantage.

Therefore, the strategy was set: when encountering a Taiyi Golden Immortal at the mid-stage or above, turn around and run without hesitation.

After rushing along the way, Jin Xuan finally arrived at Buzhou Mountain.

Looking up, he activated his Treasure-Seeking Eyes and saw that the area around Mount Buzhou was filled with dense treasure energy, the light of which was dazzling to his eyes.
