Chapter 4530: Golden Whiskered Ice-Scaled Fish Mutation

"To open ten orifices, a pure crystal core from a Great Luo Golden Immortal-stage Nine-Colored Chaos Beast would suffice. However, you won't be able to acquire such a core anytime soon. If your wife advances to the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage, it would be much easier for you both to team up and eliminate a Great Luo Golden Immortal-stage Nine-Colored Chaos Beast," Qing Xuan stated.

Wang Changsheng nodded, as this was also his intention. Once Wang Ruyan reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage, they could unite with the Nangong Immortal Clan to confront the Chahar Tribe.

Wang Qingshan, Wang Qingling, and other clan members had matured, but they were still no match for a Great Luo Golden Immortal-stage Nine-Colored Chaos Beast.

Wang Ruyan walked in, excitedly announcing, "Husband, the Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish has mutated!"

She conjured the Four Seasons Map and hung it on the wall.

Their bodies glowed with blue light as they entered the Four Seasons Map, appearing above a massive pool of water.

The water surface was calm, like a still pond. Wang Changsheng had been raising his Golden Immortal-stage Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish here, feeding them pure crystal cores from Grand Unity Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts, but they were nowhere to be found.

His divine sense expanded, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He reached out his right hand downwards, and a blue hand materialized out of thin air, grabbing towards a spot on the water. With a flash of blue light, a giant blue fish appeared. Its wide-open maw revealed a row of snow-white sharp teeth, and on its back was a pair of blue bird-like wings. It looked distinctly different from a Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish.

"A Kun!" Wang Changsheng exclaimed, surprised.

The blue giant fish before him closely resembled a Kun and had already reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

"Senior, could you please release me?" the Kun spoke.

"Are you a Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish?" Wang Changsheng asked, intrigued.

"Precisely!" the Kun replied.

"How did you become so large?" Wang Changsheng asked, puzzled.

"I don't know; it simply grew this large after its advancement," the Kun replied.

"Currently, only one Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish has advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage and mutated. The other Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish either failed to advance or failed to mutate," Wang Ruyan explained.

They had selected thirty Golden Immortal-stage Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish for focused cultivation, feeding them pure crystal cores from Grand Unity Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts. Only one of them mutated and advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage. No wonder other major powers did not cultivate Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish; the cost was simply too prohibitive.

"What about its divine abilities?" Wang Changsheng asked.

"Its defensive capabilities are comparable to a Grand Unity Golden Immortal-stage Seven-Colored Chaos Beast, but it hasn't grown any weapons yet. Perhaps it will develop them in the future, but for now, it's unclear," Wang Ruyan replied.

The Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish must possess unique qualities to have been chosen by the Ten Directions Mother-Child Pagoda. Neither Wang Changsheng nor Wang Ruyan knew in which direction the Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish would evolve.

Wang Changsheng showed a look of approval and stated, "Stay here honestly and do not cause trouble, or you will be killed without mercy."

"Senior, please rest assured, I will be very obedient," the Kun quickly replied.

"From now on, you shall be named Wang Kun!" Wang Changsheng declared, giving it a name. He then tossed a Grand Unity Golden Immortal-stage Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish into the pool. This particular fish had not mutated; it had only advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

Wang Kun showed no hesitation, opening its maw and lunging at the Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish. The Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish, much smaller than Wang Kun, was no match and was devoured within moments.

"According to Mrs. Sun, it's better to first let the Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish devour each other to enhance their innate power, and then invest heavily in their cultivation," Wang Ruyan suggested.

"Let the Merfolk be responsible for this task! We don't need to worry about such minor matters; simply assign a few clan members to oversee it," Wang Changsheng said.

In their early years, they had taken in a group of Merfolk. The Merfolk were naturally skilled at cultivating immortal fish, and with the Wang family's support, their lineage continued and prospered. Yu Lang had already advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

Matters like this had to be supervised by members of the Wang clan; it couldn't be left solely to the Merfolk.

Wang Ruyan nodded and asked curiously, "The Kunlun Dao Ancestor obtained the Grand Unity Creation Pot. I wonder if he will extensively cultivate Gold-Bearded Ice-Scaled Fish."

"I don't know. I'll ask Fellow Daoist Nangong about the Grand Unity Creation Pot's capabilities another day. First, I'll enter secluded cultivation for a period. My dear, you have already perfected your laws; strive to cultivate to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Great Perfection stage, and I will help you acquire auxiliary immortal pills and wondrous medicines," Wang Changsheng advised.

He had consumed a pot of Ten Directions Immortal Dew, a Grand Profound Jade Mushroom Pill, and a Heaven-Earth Creation Pill to open all three hundred and sixty immortal orifices, thereby attracting the thunder tribulation to advance to the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage.

After Wang Changsheng advanced to the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage, obtaining a Grand Profound Jade Mushroom Pill and a Heaven-Earth Creation Pill would not be particularly difficult. He could even acquire them by selling a complete set of high-grade immortal artifacts.

Wang Ruyan nodded and stated, "Once I advance to the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage, we will go and destroy Haotian Palace."

Haotian Palace was a potential threat; as long as it remained, they would not know peace.

After a brief chat, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan exited the Four Seasons Map.

Wang Changsheng walked into another secret chamber, sat down cross-legged, and began his cultivation.

In Qinglian City, within a tranquil manor, Wang Qingxiao, Wang Qingling, Wang Qingbai, Cao Yuanxing, Nangong Yunyue, Blood River Divine Lord, and over a dozen other Grand Unity Golden Immortals sat around a green tea table, sipping tea and discussing the Dao.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, will Immortal Lord Taihao or Immortal Fairy Tianqin not be making an appearance at this large-scale auction?" Blood River Divine Lord asked curiously.

Wang Qingbai smiled slightly and patiently explained, "I don't know. My parents are in life-and-death seclusion. If they emerge, perhaps they will make an appearance! However, it's the same if you discuss matters with us."

"That's right! Discussing it with us is just as good," Wang Qingling added.

"I would like to ask Fellow Daoist Wang to help refine a high-grade Chaos Armor! I only have three sets of materials, but I can offer immortal medicines and artifact refining materials as compensation, how does that sound?" Blood River Divine Lord politely inquired.

Just as Wang Qingbai was about to reply, he took out a green glowing spell plate, cast a spell, and his eyes lit up.

"Haha, my father has advanced to the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage! Our family now has a Great Luo Golden Immortal!" Wang Qingbai exclaimed, thrilled.

The increasing number of Grand Unity Golden Immortals within the Wang family had steadily strengthened their power, drawing the attention of many major forces. If not for the protection of the Nangong Immortal Clan, Great Luo Golden Immortals might have already come to cause trouble. Beyond other advantages, the Wang family's artifact refining skills were highly coveted by other powers. Now that the Wang family had a Great Luo Golden Immortal, the situation was fundamentally different. Any other force considering moving against the Wang family would have to account for Wang Changsheng's existence.

"Ninth Uncle has advanced to the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage? That's wonderful!" Wang Qingling exclaimed, her expression excited.

Cao Yuanxing and the others looked envious. Some of them had advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage even earlier than Wang Changsheng, yet he was now a Great Luo Golden Immortal, while they remained in the Mid-Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

Wang Qingbai was in a good mood. He reviewed Blood River Divine Lord's proposed compensation and accepted it.

The news of Wang Changsheng's advancement to the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage spread rapidly. Simultaneously, the Wang family dispatched numerous personnel to distribute invitations, inviting them to attend the celebration.
