Chapter 3876: Nine Turns Jade Soul Fruit

The tea was blood-red and had a faint smell of blood.

"Blood Spirit Tea, also known as Blood Ganoderma Tea, is said to be cultivated by irrigating the Blood Spirit Tea trees with the essence and blood of Chaos Beasts, which allows them to grow well," Bai Yue explained, picking up his teacup and taking a sip.Niu Xin gulped down the tea in his cup, a surprised expression appearing on his face, his cheeks slightly flushed. "Excellent tea, another cup please," he said.Shen Liming smiled faintly and poured him another cup.

Wang Changsheng picked up his teacup and took a sip. As soon as the tea entered his mouth, a strong bloody aroma enveloped him. Once the tea settled in his stomach, his abdomen felt slightly warm, a sensation that then spread throughout his body, causing his vital energy and blood to surge. Wang Changsheng's physical body was already very strong; after arriving in the Immortal Realm, he had also consumed many immortal elixirs and medicines that enhanced the body, so a single cup of Blood Spirit Tea did not provide a significant boost. Other True Immortal cultivators did not experience it as easily as Wang Changsheng. Their faces turned beet red, and they quickly circulated their energy to refine the potent energy. After a short while, they returned to normal, illustrating the difference between them and Wang Changsheng.

After more than an hour of conversation, the cultivators began to exchange items. With the destruction of the Heavenly Beast Sect and the Changyuan Clan, the Wang family had acquired many cultivation resources, so ordinary items did not interest Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan. The True Immortal cultivators exchanged a wide variety of items, including beast hides, immortal wood, immortal talismans, immortal wine, refining materials, immortal herbs, and immortal fruits. Wang Changsheng exchanged a tricolored Chaos Beast crystal core for the soul of an Eight-winged Frost Centipede, a True Spirit at the True Immortal stage. Wang Ruyan obtained the essence blood of the Eight-winged Frost Centipede, which could be used for making talismans.

After about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, a short, stout old man in a green robe stood up. With a flick of his sleeve, a green glow swept across the table, revealing a large pile of items."Fellow Daoist Wu, what's inside that jade box?" Shen Liming asked, pointing to a golden jade box with a silver talisman affixed to its surface."It's the hide of a Golden-eyed Fiery Dragon at the early True Immortal stage. It has already cultivated into a true spirit; you may inspect it," the old man in green said, peeling off the silver talisman and taking out a red dragon hide covered in red scales."A true spirit's hide!" Wang Changsheng's interest was piqued."The Golden-eyed Fiery Dragon is a descendant of fire dragons, though many generations removed, so it's considered an ordinary true spirit. However, its hide can be refined into a defensive immortal artifact that can easily withstand low-grade immortal artifacts," the green-robed elder explained. The True Immortal cultivators present were all well-informed, so it was better to be honest with them."I'm looking to exchange it for Chaos Beast crystal cores, but no tricolored ones. Even though it's an ordinary true spirit, it is still a dragon, and two of my friends died to slay this beast," the green-robed elder said, his gaze quickly sweeping over Wang Changsheng, Shen Liming, and Bai Yue.Wang Changsheng, Shen Liming, Bai Yue, and others all sent private messages to the green-robed elder, wanting to exchange for the hide. After much consideration, the green-robed elder exchanged it with Shen Liming. Wang Changsheng didn't mind; it was only a Golden-eyed Fiery Dragon at the early True Immortal stage.

After the green-robed elder finished his exchange, he sat down. Bai Yue stood up and took out dozens of items, among which were two oval-shaped black fruits with nine silvery-white patterns on their surface."Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit!" Chen Xin recognized the origin of this immortal fruit.The Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit has a growth cycle of three million years. It can strengthen an immortal's soul, and its effect is even better when refined into a pill and consumed."Some soul cultivation techniques can also strengthen the soul, but not significantly, as they are ordinary. I've heard that the Li family possesses a high-level soul cultivation technique; after cultivating it, an immortal's soul can be greatly strengthened, and they can even unleash soul attacks," Bai Yue said."Madam Bai must be referring to the 'Heavenly Soul Treasure Codex'!" Shen Liming said. "This technique requires a sufficiently powerful soul to cultivate, and not everyone can practice it. Otherwise, if every Li family cultivator mastered soul abilities, they wouldn't have been annihilated. I heard that a Golden Immortal cultivator from the Li family comprehended the Law of Soul through the 'Heavenly Soul Treasure Codex' and even killed a Golden Immortal-stage Ice Dragon."Shen Liming mentioned that when the Li family was destroyed, Hundred Refinements Island also participated. The scriptures in Hundred Refinements Island's Scripture Depository recorded many details about the Li family, which Shen Liming had reviewed."I'm looking to exchange them for materials of equal value," Bai Yue stated.Even Golden Immortal cultivators benefit significantly from consuming Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruits, let alone True Immortal cultivators. The True Immortal cultivators present all privately messaged Bai Yue and took out items for her to inspect; Wang Changsheng was no exception."Madam Bai, this is a pure tricolored crystal core. How about I exchange it for one Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit?" Wang Changsheng said via a private message, handing Bai Yue a green jade box.The crystal cores circulated on the market typically contain a bloodthirsty bestial nature and are unusable without first removing it. Pure crystal cores are quite rare, let alone tricolored ones. If he weren't worried about causing unnecessary trouble, he would have taken out two pure tricolored crystal cores to exchange for two Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruits.Bai Yue calmly accepted the green jade box. Opening the lid, a tricolored crystal core came into view. She placed her palm on the crystal core's surface, and a white light emerged from her palm, enveloping the crystal core. After a moment, the white light in Bai Yue's palm dispersed, and she nodded, exchanging one Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit with Wang Changsheng.Shen Liming exchanged for the other Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit, and the other cultivators looked on with envy. After about half an hour, the exchange session concluded, and after some more casual conversation, the cultivators returned to their respective homes.

Upon returning to his residence, Wang Changsheng immediately entered a secret chamber, sat down cross-legged, took out the Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit, and consumed it. Since even Golden Immortal cultivators coveted the Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit, it was better to consume it quickly. With so many True Immortal cultivators attending the gathering, the news could not be kept secret. The fruit pulp melted instantly in his mouth, and a vast energy surged in his abdomen. Wang Changsheng quickly circulated his energy to refine this power. Two days later, Wang Changsheng emerged from the secret chamber, his face beaming with joy.

After consuming a Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit, his soul had grown considerably stronger. Arriving at the small courtyard, Wang Changsheng saw Wang Ruyan sitting in the stone pavilion."Husband, Fellow Daoist Jiang from the Nine Immortals Sect contacted you, saying he's willing to buy a Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit from you at a high price. I told him you had already consumed it," Wang Ruyan said.Not long after their return, a True Immortal cultivator from the Nine Immortals Sect contacted Wang Ruyan, wanting to purchase a Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit at a high price. Wang Ruyan could only tell him that Wang Changsheng had consumed it."What did he say?" Wang Changsheng asked."He didn't say much, just that he's willing to pay a high price for a Nine-Turn Jade Soul Fruit and that you should contact him anytime you've made up your mind," Wang Ruyan replied."It doesn't matter; I've already eaten it anyway," Wang Changsheng dismissed.Wang Ruyan took out a blue-glowing transmission mirror, infused it with a spell, and Wang Yongqian appeared on the mirror's surface."Ancestor, Chuanming and the others were tracking the descendants of the Li family but were injured by their target. The target escaped before reinforcements could arrive," Wang Yongqian reported.
