Chapter 2182: Promotion to Blue Glaze Sword

"Oh, right, dear, we don't have Dustcleansing Pills in the family treasury, do we? We need to buy some for Qingshan to help him cleanse away the aura from the lower realm."

Wang Changsheng remembered something and reminded her. Wang Qingcheng and the others were born in the Xuanyang Realm, so they naturally didn't carry the lower realm aura. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan had already cleansed themselves of it.

If Wang Qingshan didn't take the Dustcleansing Pills, he would have to face a minor heavenly tribulation every hundred years.

Wang Qingshan smiled faintly and said, "Ninth Aunt personally made a trip to the Snow Goose Market and bought me a batch of Dustcleansing Pills. They're more than enough for me to cleanse away the lower realm aura."

"That's good. By the way, Qingshan, how is the family doing? Tell me about it."

As Wang Changsheng spoke, his expression grew serious.

When he left the Dongli Realm, it was in a hurry. He had left behind contingencies and a sum of cultivation resources for the family, but after so many years, it was hard to say if any unforeseen circumstances had arisen.

Wang Qingshan recounted everything in detail, holding nothing back.

Learning that Wang Qingjing, Wang Qiuming, Wang Qingling, and others had failed their attempts to reach the Nascent Soul stage and had subsequently passed away, Wang Changsheng sighed softly.

He had anticipated this, but hearing the news of their deaths still weighed heavily on his heart.

"It's a pity about Eighth Sister and the others. If only there were elixirs for longevity, they might have had a chance to advance to the Nascent Soul stage. Now Qingxiao is overseeing the family, and there's a lack of new talent. It would be great if we could send some cultivation resources to the lower realm."

Wang Qingshan spoke with a tone of regret. The lower realm didn't lack talent, but it lacked cultivation resources. If Wang Qingshan had remained in the lower realm, he still couldn't have escaped the fate of dying of old age. The cultivators who could reach the late Nascent Soul stage in the lower realm were very few.

Wang Changsheng shook his head and said, "As for treasures like realm-breaking discs, among the human forces in the Xuanling Continent, only the Xuanqing Sect possesses them. Borrowing a realm-breaking disc isn't easy. And as for setting up an eighth-tier formation, that's even more impossible."

"If we had remained in the lower realm, ascending to the Xuanyang Realm would also have been very difficult."

Wang Ruyan agreed, stating that with the cultivation resources of the lower realm, they could at most cultivate to the mid-Nascent Soul stage.

"By the way, has Fellow Daoist Sun from Myriad Beast Island ascended?"

Wang Changsheng asked curiously, as Sun Tianhu had previously visited Wang Qingshan.

"I'm not sure. Before I left the Dongli Realm, I went to Myriad Beast Island but couldn't meet Fellow Daoist Sun. He's probably ascended, but where he ended up, I don't know. Also, Mengbin's and Haitang's soul lamps have never shattered, so they might have been stranded in other realms."

Wang Qingshan analyzed, noting that everyone had their own destiny. Wang Mengbin and Ye Haitang were not weak in strength, especially Wang Mengbin. He wished they could also reach the Xuanyang Realm.

"I hope they can make it to the Xuanyang Realm! All right, let's not dwell on this. Qingcheng, give the order: Nine Dragons Island is to be renamed Green Lotus Island. Spread the name 'Green Lotus Immortals' far and wide so that if any clan members ascend to the Xuanyang Realm, they can come and join us."

Wang Changsheng instructed, recalling that when Wang Qingshan first arrived in the Xuanyang Realm, he didn't know the whereabouts of Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan and almost joined the Zhenhai Palace.

Joining Zhenhai Palace was easy, but leaving it would be difficult.

"Also, have people create special dharma robes marked with a green lotus. This will make them easier to identify. Yuejiao, Xueli, you two oversee this task."

Wang Ruyan added.

Wang Qingcheng and the two others agreed and departed to carry out their orders.

"Husband, Qingshan obtained some Creation Divine Water from the Tianhai Realm."

Wang Ruyan briefly explained the situation, then took out a green jade bottle and handed it to Wang Changsheng.

"Creation Divine Water? The Tianhai Realm actually has such a treasure."

A look of surprise flashed in Wang Changsheng's eyes. Creation Divine Water was most suitable for cultivating rare spiritual fruits and herbs; it wasn't for refining dharma idols.

The water of the Nether River was more suitable for Wang Changsheng to refine his dharma idol. Using Creation Divine Water for that purpose would be too extravagant. Given its properties, it was better suited for cultivating rare spiritual herbs.

He thought of the Profound Heaven Immortal Vine in the lower realm. If he could descend in his true form, he could take this bottle of Creation Divine Water to the lower realm and entrust it to his clan members to cultivate the Profound Heaven Immortal Vine.

"There's Creation Divine Water on Fallen Immortal Island. I expect the Xuanqing Sect won't let go of this treasure. But what surprised me most was that Huang Fugui actually went to the Tianhai Realm and even joined cultivators from the Taiyang Sect to search for treasures on Fallen Immortal Island."

As Wang Qingshan finished speaking, his expression was a little strange.

When he chatted with Yang Hongji, the sect master of Taiyang Sect, he learned that Huang Fugui had gone treasure hunting on Fallen Immortal Island with Taiyang Sect cultivators. All of the Taiyang Sect cultivators' soul lamps had extinguished, and Huang Fugui's whereabouts were unknown.

"Could that fellow have advanced to the Nascent Soul stage and also ascended to the Xuanyang Realm?"

Wang Changsheng said with some surprise. Huang Fugui had built his fortune through grave robbing; his luck was exceptionally good.

"I don't know, possibly."

Wang Qingshan shook his head. He hadn't been in the Xuanyang Realm for long, so even if Huang Fugui had ascended, he wouldn't know his situation.

"Let's not talk about Huang Fugui anymore. By the way, Qingshan, give me your innate flying sword. I'll help you upgrade it to a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure. Since you've reached the Nascent Soul stage, having an innate magical artifact that's still a mere Spirit Treasure is too undignified."

Wang Changsheng said with a smile. With Wang Qingshan's ability, if his innate magical artifact were upgraded to a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, his strength would become even greater.

Wang Ruyan took out a green storage ring and handed it to Wang Changsheng, smiling as she said, "I've already acquired all the materials. I was just waiting for you to return, husband."

"Thank you, Ninth Uncle."

Wang Qingshan took out nine Azure Glaze Swords and handed them to Wang Changsheng.

"We're family, there's no trouble. Just focus on your cultivation! Strive to reach the Void Refinement stage as soon as possible."

Wang Changsheng encouraged him. With Wang Qingshan joining them, the family gained a significant boost in combat power.

"I'll go back to my cultivation now. Ninth Uncle, Ninth Aunt, if you need anything, just send me a message."

Wang Qingshan stood up and left.

"Husband, not long after you left Nine Dragons Island, a beast tide erupted. Its scale far surpassed previous ones. I suspect the Liu family is behind it."

Wang Ruyan's expression was serious. The Liu family was starting to target them.

"With Martial Ancestor Chen present, the Liu family won't dare to act recklessly for now. Dear, you've worked hard with these matters. Now that Qingshan is in the Xuanyang Realm, you can focus on your cultivation and aim for the Void Refinement stage."

Wang Changsheng said in a deep voice. If Wang Ruyan advanced to the Void Refinement stage, the Wang family would become even stronger.

"We've acquired many spiritual items, but the biggest challenge in advancing to the Void Refinement stage is the lightning tribulation."

As Wang Ruyan finished speaking, a hint of fear appeared in her eyes.

She had personally witnessed Wang Changsheng's attempt to reach the Void Refinement stage and knew the immense power of the Six-Nine Lightning Tribulation, which necessitated preparing more treasures.

"Don't worry about that; leave it to me. What you need to focus on is how to successfully attempt the Void Refinement stage."

Wang Changsheng had used five clusters of fifth-tier spirit flames to attempt the Void Refinement stage without consuming any spiritual items, but this method was not suitable for widespread use.

"In just over fifty years, the Snow Goose Market will hold a large-scale auction. It's said that a secret talisman called the Five-Element Spirit-Infusion Talisman will appear. The Five-Element Spirit-Infusion Talisman is a sixth-tier talisman that can balance the power of the five elements. While cultivating additional attribute techniques takes a long time, the risk is also considerable."

Wang Ruyan spoke slowly, her expression serious.

In the lower realm, a five-element spiritual root was generally considered useless. In the Xuanyang Realm, however, aside from spirit physiques, it wasn't easy for cultivators with non-five-element spiritual roots to attempt the Void Refinement stage. If they couldn't balance the five-element energy within their bodies, a failed attempt would be a minor issue; a serious outcome could even be life-threatening.

If she were to change her cultivation technique, she would need to use treasures to replace her earth and fire spiritual roots to cultivate earth and fire attribute techniques simultaneously. This would not only be time-consuming but also carry significant risks.

"Five-Element Spirit-Infusion Talisman? No need to rush into this. Perhaps there are other methods. You should focus on your cultivation for now."

After a brief chat, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan walked into the underground chamber.

He tossed the nine Azure Glaze Swords into the air and unleashed Lapis Lazuli Ice Flame, which enveloped them.

Having experience upgrading the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, Wang Changsheng was confident he could upgrade the Azure Glaze Swords to low-grade Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures.

The temperature inside the room was frighteningly low, and the ground had frozen over.
