Chapter 390: Chapter 222: Destiny’s Protection, Advancement to Eighth-Layer Foundation Establishment
At this moment, in the Seven-Star Peak Mansion.
Jiang Fan naturally didn’t know what was happening in the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.
With the protection of destiny, he easily dispelled the subsequent hidden dangers.
Now he was carefully examining the spoils of this venture.
After all, he had acquired the Storage Bags of four Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and the opponents were sect cultivators of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.
It was obvious that as sect disciples, their wealth was unmatched by that of other Loose Cultivators.
"Here is the Tier Two High-grade Elixir, the Profound Sun Pill."
"And there are as many as five bottles in total, I’ve really hit the jackpot this time."
Jiang Fan’s eyes immediately brightened.
He noticed the elixirs in the Storage Bag right away.
After all, for him, nothing was a more crucial resource than elixirs.
Originally, he planned to go to Xuanjian City to buy Tier Two Elixirs.
But now, it seemed completely unnecessary.
He could obtain the corresponding cultivation resources from these sect cultivators.
It must be said, as expected of disciples from a Nascent Soul Sect, to casually carry so many Tier Two High-grade Elixirs.
It was not something ordinary Loose Cultivators could compare to.
"So many Profound Sun Pills."
"If I can thoroughly refine them, advancing to the eighth layer of Foundation Establishment wouldn’t be too much of a problem."
Jiang Fan clenched his fists, feeling quite satisfied.
Truth be told, the Profound Sun Pill is a renowned Tier Two Elixir of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.
It’s said that the main ingredient is the Profound Sunflower, which is gentle in nature and has immense medicinal power, making it very suitable for Foundation Establishment cultivators.
However, most of the Profound Sun Pills are consumed internally, and external cultivators can hardly buy them.
Even if one bottle appeared at an auction, it would be invaluable.
No one knows how many Spirit Stones it would take to auction one down.
After all, for a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Tier Two Elixirs can greatly enhance cultivation efficiency, allowing them to condense their Spiritual Power in the shortest time possible.
In some sense, this also means indirectly extending one’s lifespan.
"Too bad, there aren’t any more elixirs."
Jiang Fan continued to explore the treasures inside the Storage Bag.
He found an abundance of talismans, as well as some ordinary Spirit Medicine, basic healing elixirs, some materials, and that was about it for the treasures.
It couldn’t be helped.
Although sect cultivators are indeed affluent, they wouldn’t carry all their treasures on them.
Most likely, many of their treasures were left in their own residences.
Even if he eliminated these sect cultivators, he would only have obtained part of the treasures.
Nevertheless, he felt very satisfied.
For these Profound Sun Pills were enough to support his cultivation for a long time.
It counted as an unexpected delight, part of a Fifth-Grade Opportunity.
"The Heavenly Flower needs to be kept for now, stored temporarily."
"When more Heavenly Flowers are obtained, they can be used together."
"In doing so, it may elevate one’s Spirit Root to the level of Celestial Spirit Root."
Jiang Fan stroked his chin.
He also wanted to use the Heavenly Flower immediately to swiftly enhance the quality of his Spirit Root.
But using three Heavenly Flowers together would be better.
This way, the power nurtured by the three Heavenly Flowers would be even more fierce and potent.
If it were any other cultivator, they would definitely use it eagerly, especially since obtaining a Heavenly Flower is as difficult as ascending to the heavens, practically impossible.
However, he had a strong confidence and premonition, feeling certain that he would acquire more Heavenly Flowers.
To him, it was just a matter of time.
For he couldn’t help it—his destiny was remarkably extraordinary.
Under the influence of abundant destiny, everything he did tended to turn out as he wished.
...
Another day passed.
Elder Alchemist Wei Song, Yu Kelian, Lian Minglan, and Chang Lisheng, the Foundation Establishment cultivators, returned.
However, Chang Lisheng appeared severely injured, covered in blood, looking deathly pale.
"Fellow Daoist Chang, what happened?"
Jiang Fan, seeing Chang Lisheng’s condition, couldn’t help but ask curiously.
"Don’t even mention it."
"I went to Spirit Smoke Valley."
"Luck was indeed on my side, as I encountered the emergence of a spiritual object."
"Who could have predicted that I wasn’t the only one heading to Spirit Smoke Valley?"
"Besides me, there was a large number of Loose Cultivators and even sect cultivators from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect."
"Initially, I was ready to retreat, as competing with those sect cultivators was impossible."
"Who knew those sect cultivators from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect wouldn’t let go and attacked us."
"As a result, many Loose Cultivators were killed or wounded, and I barely escaped with all my might."
"This time, I’ve suffered a major loss."
Chang Lisheng gritted his teeth in anger.
He never expected those sect cultivators to be so overbearing.
They didn’t spare even the observing Loose Cultivators.
Many Loose Cultivators were even killed.
What was supposed to be a significant opportunity turned into a calamity.
He regretted it deeply; had he known this would happen, he wouldn’t have sought out any opportunities.
Now he didn’t gain the opportunity and became embroiled in a mess instead.
"Fellow Daoist Chang, at least you returned alive; that’s fortune within misfortune."
Jiang Fan comforted him.
He also recalled a message from the Fortune-Telling Talisman, which had indicated that while there was a chance for opportunity in Spirit Smoke Valley, it was accompanied by peril and disaster. Chang Lisheng’s experience confirmed this point.
However, at least they returned alive.
If it were he who went there, the chances would have been slim.
