Chapter 1066 - 729: Red Flame’s Assets

Chapter 1066: Chapter 729: Red Flame’s Assets

Internal divisions and turmoil.

Without these internal troubles, how could the Demon Race army easily breach the Bright Flame Sect’s mountain gate, no matter how strong they are?

"Retribution."

Shen Xuan’s heart felt no pleasure. 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

The latter part of the war report was even more heavy.

After the fall of the Bright Flame Sect’s mountain gate, the surrounding three counties and sixteen cities lost their barrier, displacing millions of ordinary people.

The territories ravaged by the Demon Race were littered with corpses, the Spiritual Qi was tainted, and life would be difficult to revive within a century.

Shen Xuan put down the Jade Scroll and walked to the window.

Outside the cave mansion, Frightening Sword Island was still shrouded in mist, appearing serene.

But he knew, the once Mingyan Immortal City had already become a hell on earth.

He was not a saint.

Reflecting inwardly, he never considered himself morally upright.

On the path of cultivation, treachery and deceit, decisive killings, his hands were stained with much blood.

But he had a bottom line.

He would not slaughter the innocent or oppress the weak.

To the lower-level loose cultivators and secular ordinary people, he often harbored a heart of compassion.

But in this Profound Origin Realm...

Shen Xuan gazed out at the sea of clouds, his vision deepening.

The strict hierarchy was like an iron curtain, sect families monopolized resources, and low-level cultivators struggled to survive.

Thousand-year-old sects, ten-thousand-year-old families, were deeply rooted, tightly controlling the ascent channels.

How could one single person shake these ancient rules that have perpetuated for ages?

"Help the world when successful, safeguard oneself when destitute."

He softly recited this ancient saying.

To help the world, he could not do.

To be able to safeguard oneself was already quite challenging.

The Tai Chi Golden Core flickered faintly, with blue and red flowing cyclically, perpetually enduring.

Outside the window, suddenly the wind rose, dispersing a cloud of mist.

In the distant sky, thunder rumbled faintly.

Shen Xuan walked out of the bedroom, entering the secret chamber.

Then, he took out True Monarch Red Flame’s Storage Pouch.

After several years, the Nascent Soul Divine Soul Restriction at the mouth of the pouch had faded significantly.

Shen Xuan concentrated his mind and activated his power.

Within his Dantian, the Tai Chi Golden Core slowly rotated, with the blend of blue and red Qi emerging as mist.

A surge of immense Magical Power flowed to his fingertips.

"Break."

He pointed his fingers like a sword, tapping several times.

With each tap, a fine line of light like a crack shone at the mouth of the pouch.

After the third tap, with a soft "pop" sound, the restriction shattered.

Shen Xuan sent his Divine Sense inside.

Immediately, his breathing paused slightly.

A sight full of treasure glow.

Upper Grade spirit stones stacked like bricks, over a hundred pieces at least, the glowing Spiritual Light illuminating the stone walls.

Various Jade Boxes and Jade Bottles were displayed among them.

The icy profound ice jade essence, the golden thunder bamboo entwined with lightning threads, the Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk exuding the fragrance of vegetation...

All were Tier Four Spiritual Materials, any of which could provoke fierce competition among Golden Core Cultivators.

"Oh, what’s this?"

Shen Xuan poured out over ten palm-sized spirit stones.

Unlike Upper Grade spirit stones, they didn’t emit external brilliance.

Soft as ancient jade, the Spiritual Qi restrained like a deep pool.

When his Divine Sense slightly touched, the Magical Power within his body faintly resonated.

"So, these are Top Grade Spirit Stones!"

Shen Xuan was seeing them for the first time.

One Top Grade Spirit Stone is equivalent to a million spirit stones.

This rare item is a supreme treasure for replenishing Spiritual Qi during Breaking Realm and Magical Combat.

Suppressing the disturbance in his heart, Shen Xuan continued counting.

A purple-veined Jade Bottle held nine elixir pills, the pill air was chaotic purple.

Purple Mansion Primordial Pill.

A Tier Four Spirit Medicine vital for consolidating the foundation during the Nascent Soul stage.

A small black jade bottle contained only four elixir pills remaining, pill patterns like soul threads intertwined.

Celestial Net Soul Cleansing Pill.

A precious item for nurturing the Nascent Soul and Divine Soul, a scan with Divine Sense cleared the mind refreshingly.

Over ten Tier Four Talismans, sorted categorically.

Two Dimensional Shift Talismans can break through small space locks instantly for hundreds of miles, Tier Four Escape Talismans.

Five Hao Yang True Fire Talismans with immense power, specifically against the Yin evil Demon Technique.

Two Universe Heart-protecting Talismans, thin as cicada wings but heavy as a mountain.

Once triggered, the Talisman forms a defensive shield.

It can withstand a full-force strike from a Nascent Soul, maintaining for three breaths.

Additionally, several pounds of Tier Four Artifact Refining spiritual materials like Divine Phoenix Wood, Purple Flame Ore, and Crystal Fire Essence, sufficient as main ingredients for Nascent Soul Spiritual Treasure.

Looking over each item, Shen Xuan’s gaze deepened.

"Indeed, a Sect Nascent Soul..."

These Tier Four Spiritual Objects exceeded expectations in value.

Sufficient to exchange for Nascent Soul Pills.

The burden on his heart for years suddenly loosened.

There is no need to fight desperately.

No need to risk venturing into Secret Realms.

Just cultivate quietly to Golden Core Perfection, possess enough strength, then he can trade for Nascent Soul Pills and Nascent Soul Formation Spiritual Objects.

At this moment, Shen Xuan’s strength is not much inferior to a regular early-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch.

Divine Power Realm Body Refining Grandmaster, nurturing the hundred-year Profound Ice Treasure Talisman, Demon Sect Secret Technique "Other Shore Demon Flower", Nine-Colored Treasure Lotus, True Fire Gourd, Five Flames and Seven Beasts Fan, over a thousand Ice Essence Spirit Crystals...

Numerous methods.

Even facing a Nascent Soul directly, what is there to fear?

If truly confronted with life and death, it’s hard to say who will win.

Shen Xuan has enough confidence to escape safely.
