This is a wooden box that is three feet long, with a Tier Three Sealing Spirit Talisman attached to its surface.

The material of the wooden box itself is Tier Three Spirit-Encompassing Wood.

This indicates the preciousness of the treasure inside.

Peeling off the Sealing Spirit Talisman, the wooden box was opened, revealing a strange spirit wood, three feet long, appearing gold and wood-like,

its cross-section showing faint golden cloud patterns.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun’s heart stirred, he formed a seal with one hand, and pointed his left hand, shaped like a sword finger, towards the spirit wood.

"Pfft!"

A stream of Qi Force flew out, hitting the spirit wood with a gentle sound.

However, a surprising scene unfolded.

The spirit wood remained unscathed, without a single trace.

One must know that Zhou Xun’s current Mana Strength was comparable to Late-Stage Core Formation Cultivators, previously the same Qi Force could not be blocked by several feet thick Spirit Iron,

yet this spirit wood remained unscathed.

"This is...Tier Four High-Grade Profound Gold Wood, known as Wood Crystal, the most resilient spirit wood below Tier Five!"

"Unexpectedly, there’s such a find!" Zhou Xun’s heart was filled with joy.

He needed five kinds of spirit wood as the main material to refine his Lifebound Magical Treasure, Cyan Emperor Seal.

Previously, he had already collected three kinds, along with this one, he now had four.

Back then, when he followed Master Tianci into the Secret Vault of Tianhan City, Zhou Xun had seen a piece of Tier Four spirit wood there.

Given his relationship with Master Tianci, obtaining it shouldn’t be difficult.

Thus, the main materials for Cyan Emperor Seal were already collected, he could start refining once he returned to the Eastern Wilderness.

Even more delightful was that Profound Gold Wood was incredibly resilient, treasures refined with it possessed exceptional toughness.

Master White Cloud’s Wood Radiance Gourd, due to the addition of a tiny amount of Wood Crystal, was so resilient that this Low-Grade Magical Treasure could shatter the demon body of a Tier Three Middle-Grade True Spirit Bloodline.

Moreover, this Profound Gold Wood is three feet long, once Zhou Xun refines it into Cyan Emperor Seal, the scene of shattering demon bodies could very well reappear!

Additionally, with the inclusion of Profound Gold Wood, destroying this treasure would be an extremely challenging task.

Soon, Zhou Xun joyfully placed it into his Storage Bag,

Finally, Zhou Xun’s gaze turned to the smallest box.

This Jade Box is only two inches in size, removing the Spirit Talisman, opening the lid.

A burst of pure Spiritual Qi emerged.

Upon inhaling, Zhou Xun’s Mana surged in his dantian, and his Cultivation increased slightly.

"What is this spiritual object!"

Zhou Xun hurriedly looked inside the box,

Only to see a thumb-sized, extremely smooth object, entirely milky white in color, adorned with pill patterns resembling the Great Dao,

Surrounded by Spirit Charm flowing, extraordinarily remarkable.

For a moment, Zhou Xun couldn’t recognize it.

He then took out several Jade Scrolls introducing various rare elixirs from his Storage Bag, and started examining them,

Finally, in the third Jade Scroll, he found records about this pill:

It turned out to be a Small Nascent Soul Pill,

As the name suggests, this pill, like a Nascent Soul Pill, assists Core Formation Cultivators in breaking through to Nascent Soul, although its potency is not as strong as a Nascent Soul Pill.

Only half as powerful.

Even so, it is a treasure that can drive countless Peak Core Formation Cultivators crazy.

At this point, Zhou Xun finally understood why the elder had so few Spirit Stones; it seems they were all exchanged for this elixir.

But now, this treasure that all Peak Core Formation Cultivators crave, ultimately fell into Zhou Xun’s hands.

"Though its success rate cannot match that of a Nascent Soul Pill, it is exceedingly rare!"

He sorted and organized all the loot, and then stored them safely.

Then, Zhou Xun began to contemplate his next plans.

Firstly, regarding his true body, now that he successfully formed his Golden Core, there’s no need to remain in the Central Continent Cultivation Realm.

He should return to the Eastern Wilderness, though the world has some issues, it can still support a Core Formation Cultivator in reaching their peak without trouble,

Moreover, there are no Nascent Soul Cultivators in the Eastern Wilderness, making it extremely safe for Zhou Xun.

Hence, Zhou Xun decided that his true body would return to the Eastern Wilderness.

Furthermore, he had almost gathered all materials needed for refining his Lifebound Magical Treasure, Cyan Emperor Seal,

Next, as long as he returned to the Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, once Zhou Xun fetched the last Tier Four spirit wood from Tianhan City, he could start refining.

As for his avatar, it would remain in the Central Continent Cultivation Realm.

"Having successfully formed the Immortal Golden Core, my Lifebound Spirit Plant also sprouted thanks to it, and I’ve mastered the rare Secret Technique, Spirit Wood Limit,"

"In terms of strength, I surpass ordinary Peak Core Formation Cultivators, when in the Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, I’m undoubtedly among the top few,"

"And the only one who could threaten me, Master Tianci, is also my good friend and mentor!"

"Hence, in the Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, I can be considered invincible!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Xun snapped his Storage Bag, a Spirit Light flashed, transforming into that Tier Four Human Puppet, landing on the ground.

"This Human Puppet is not needed in the Eastern Wilderness, shall leave it for the avatar, as a trump card!"

With this treasure, the avatar’s survival capability in the Central Continent will be greatly enhanced.

Thus, after a short reunion of a few months, the avatar and the true body parted ways again.

Moments later, two figures soared into the sky,

One was a young man in white robes, with a gentle demeanor, riding the Cyan Light Shuttle, transformed into a cyan Spirit Light, speeding towards the east, in the direction of the Spirit Control Sect.

The other was a burly man with a beard, sitting on the broad back of the Earth Element Beast, flying southeast,

There was a newly revealed Secret Realm, now only two months away from opening, arriving at this time would allow him to catch up,

Zhou Xun had heard from an earlier message that this Secret Realm was quite exceptional, likely at the Tier Four Level,

Thus, the possibility of producing Tier Four Spirit Medicine was high,

And for Zhou Xun today, whether his true body or avatar, to continue enhancing Spirit Root Talent, Tier Four Middle-Grade Spirit Medicine was at least needed,

Normally, Spirit Medicine of this level is something Nascent Soul Cultivators covet, let alone Zhou Xun as a Core Formation Cultivator,

Therefore, this Secret Realm is practically Zhou Xun’s only chance to obtain Tier Four Middle-Grade Spirit Medicine, he must go!

...

After half a month, Zhou Xun’s true body arrived at the edge of the Spirit Control Sect’s mountains, near the valley where the Teleportation Array was located.

Zhou Xun took out the Token, then smoothly entered the cave where the Teleportation Array was located,

Once activated, he successfully reached the Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm.

This journey was remarkably smooth, without True Monarch of Profound Control noticing.

"It seems the Purifying Spirit Body from back then played a role, reducing the chance of being discovered,"

"Or perhaps, the Blood Shadow Technique of that time could only affect the avatar, not the true body!"

Upon returning to the Eastern Wilderness, Zhou Xun didn’t rush back to Wangchuan Lake but headed to Tianhan City to visit Master Tianci.

Master Tianci was extremely kind to him and extraordinarily talented, unfortunately trapped in the Eastern Wilderness Cultivation Realm, thus stopping at Peak Core Formation,

But now, Zhou Xun finally found a way out, for those who helped him greatly, Master Tianci, Master Nanyue, and the other four,

Zhou Xun naturally wouldn’t be stingy.

Soon, Zhou Xun arrived at Master Tianci’s Cave Mansion.

"Greetings, Daoist Brother Tianci!"

Upon seeing Master Tianci, Zhou Xun cupped his hands in salute.

Seeing Zhou Xun, Master Tianci was extremely pleased!

"It’s Zhou Xun, indeed, rare to meet, I am truly gratified!"

"Please ask Daoist Brother to summon Master Nanyue, Master Dan Ding, and the other four!"

Though curious, he still called upon his four fellows.

Soon, Master Nanyue and the others arrived.

Seeing Zhou Xun, they were greatly delighted, after much greetings, Zhou Xun finally spoke of his intention:

"I discovered a Teleportation Array out of the Eastern Wilderness!"
