No hope for eternal life

Chapter 224: The Myriad Ponds

"Well, this is your mountain token." Xia Rong handed Mu Changsheng a silver token, and then introduced: "This token requires blood to recognize the owner. Each mountain has a mountain-sealing formation. With this token, you can open and close the mountain-sealing formation at will. If you want to practice in seclusion in the future, you can open the mountain-sealing formation. In this way, your fellow disciples will know that you are in seclusion and will not disturb you. As for normal times, there is no need to open the mountain-sealing formation, because the sect is absolutely safe, unless someone can break through my Lingshan Sect's protective formation."

"Junior brother, I've made note of it." Mu Changsheng nodded.

Xia Rong continued, "In addition, this token is also your proof of identity as a disciple of Lingshan Sect. When you leave the sect in the future, you will need to carry this token with you. This token is divided into a pair of mother and child tokens. The one in your hand is the child token. The sect can sense your life or death through the mother token, and you can use the child token to ask the sect for help, report your location, etc."

"So it has such a wonderful use." Mu Changsheng exclaimed. In this way, this token not only has the effect of the soul lamp, but also has an additional function of asking for help, which is obviously more advanced. It is worthy of Lingshan Sect.

"There are still many things you don't know." Xia Rong smiled slightly, then turned to Ji Chang and said, "Take Junior Brother Mu to the Wanfa Pond, and then your mission will be over."

"Don't worry, Senior Sister. I will definitely bring Junior Brother Mu here." Ji Chang said respectfully.

"Wanfa Pool?" Mu Changsheng's heart moved when he heard this. He felt unfamiliar with it, but he did not ask about it immediately.

Afterwards, Ji Chang took Mu Changsheng away from Lingzang Peak and headed to a certain mountain.

On the way, Ji Chang introduced several other important peaks to Mu Changsheng: "This is the Sutra Repository Peak, where secret arts are stored. It is guarded by the inner sect master brother You Po Ling. The outer sect disciples can freely browse all secret arts below the seventh rank, regardless of the type. The inner sect disciples have slightly higher authority and can browse secret arts below the eighth rank for free. As for secret arts above the authority, they need to be exchanged with the sect contribution points before they can be practiced."

"This is the Mission Peak, which is supervised by Senior Brother Wang Tianhua. You can accept missions from it and obtain sect contribution points. You can use the sect contribution points to exchange for various treasures and secret techniques. In addition, you can also post tasks in the Mission Peak to recruit powerful senior brothers and sisters to help you do things, but you need to pay the corresponding sect contribution points. If the sect contribution points you pay are too low, no senior brothers and sisters will pay attention to you."

"This is the Eternal Peak. It is unattended and all disciples can enter at will. There is an Eternal Monument on the top of the peak. You should have heard of it. The Eternal Monument has the names of dozens of eighth- and ninth-level masters in the history of the Tianshuang Realm. Above the names are the Dao realms left by each master. We can enter and comprehend the realms, which is of great help, especially for people like you who are encountering the Eternal Monument for the first time and whose realm is not high."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Ji, for telling me." Mu Changsheng thanked him. He had heard of the legend of the Eternal Monument a long time ago and his heart was already full of anticipation.

"Okay, Wanfa Peak is ahead." Ji Chang continued, and brought Mu Changsheng into Wanfa Peak. Here, Mu Changsheng met Elder Gao Chong again, and next to Gao Chong was a glittering earth spirit pool, which looked extremely tempting.

"Elder, the person has been brought here." Ji Chang bowed respectfully to Gao Chong and said.

Gao Chong waved his hand and said: "Okay, your mission is over."

"Yes, disciple, I'll take my leave." Ji Chang respectfully took his leave, leaving Mu Changsheng alone to face Gao Chong.

Gao Chong took the initiative to say: "This peak is named Wanfa because of the Wanfa Pond next to me. This peak is also my residence. If you have any problems in the future, you can come here to find me."

"Disciple understands." Mu Changsheng said respectfully. He knew that this peak must be extraordinary for Gao Chong to be in charge in person. This can be seen from the word "Wanfa".

As expected, Gao Chong then introduced the Wanfa Pool: "This Wanfa Pool was secretly developed by our Tianling Sect and is exclusively owned by us. Every disciple who enters the sect can enter it and take a walk. It can wash away the old diseases and hidden injuries of the cultivators, consolidate the foundation of the cultivators, etc."

"But for you, this Wanfa Pool has only one function, and that is to help you directly achieve the Supreme Yuanying!"

"Supreme Nascent Soul." Mu Changsheng exclaimed in surprise, and couldn't help but be moved. Doesn't Gao Chong's statement mean that one can achieve the Supreme Nascent Soul by relying on this Wanfa Pool? This is too subversive, because the Nine Realms have never had a method to achieve the Supreme Nascent Soul.

"That's right." Gao Chong said proudly: "Our two major sects stand at the top of the Nine Realms. Some of the research on elixirs and secret techniques is naturally at the forefront. If there are good things, let us enjoy them first. The outside world doesn't know about the Wanfa Pool because this method can't be mass-produced like the Nine-Transformation Golden Pill, so there is no need to let the outside world know."

"Is this the foundation of a wealthy and powerful family?" Mu Changsheng sighed in his heart. He was originally still worried about the formation of the Nascent Soul, but now everything has been solved.

Gao Chong didn't waste any words and said immediately: "There is no point in talking more. You should step into the Wanfa Pool now, experience the wonders here, and make a breakthrough by the way."

"Disciple obeys your command." Mu Changsheng also couldn't wait to step into the Wanfa Pool, sit cross-legged and feel the magic of it.

There was no need for Mu Changsheng to actively absorb it. The golden power in the Wanfa Pool automatically flowed into Mu Changsheng's body.

The golden power was divided into two. One part went directly into Mu Changsheng's dantian and wrapped the golden elixir to help Mu Changsheng achieve a breakthrough in his cultivation.

The other part of the golden power wandered around Mu Changsheng's body, seeping into his flesh, blood, and internal organs. After absorbing those powers, Mu Changsheng's body became even tougher.

"In this way, my physical body's nine transformations can also break through along with my cultivation." Mu Changsheng was delighted. The Wanfa Pool could also help to temper the physical body. This was something Mu Changsheng never expected. It was truly a pleasant surprise.

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng no longer focused on physical training, but concentrated on breaking through his cultivation level. After his cultivation level broke through, he would use the power of his cultivation to feed back into his physical body, and breaking through his physical body would be a natural thing.

In the dantian, the golden power of the Wanfa Pool perfectly replaced the medicinal power of the Jiying Pill. Mu Changsheng's ninth-grade purple gold pill began to slowly show cracks until it was completely shattered, completing the first step of breaking through the realm - breaking the golden pill.

With the experience of breaking through the realm in the illusion, Mu Changsheng also proceeded with the second step of forming the Nascent Soul in an orderly manner, and finally formed a perfect supreme Nascent Soul of three inches in size.

"Huh, then comes the third step of infusing spiritual consciousness." Mu Changsheng exhaled lightly. The Wanfa Pool could help him form the Supreme Nascent Soul, but the final step of the battle against the demon in his heart still depended on him.

After a slight hesitation, Mu Changsheng began to inject spiritual consciousness into the Nascent Soul.

Soon, the Nascent Soul consciousness awakened, the inner demon appeared, Mu Changsheng's head suddenly buzzed, and the collision of consciousness began.

However, with the experience in the illusion, Mu Changsheng kept his mind focused this time and blocked the first wave of attack from the inner demon's consciousness, instead of losing his mind like last time.

"Give me your body." The inner demon consciousness madly attacked Mu Changsheng's consciousness.

Mu Changsheng, on the other hand, remained consistent and did not respond to the crazy howling of his inner demon at all.

As time went by, the inner demon began to calm down and attacked Mu Changsheng's personality: "You are a hypocrite who curries favor with the powerful. Why didn't you keep silent when Ji Chang asked for benefits? Why didn't you even dare to report Ji Chang when you saw Gao Chong? To put it bluntly, you are a complete hypocrite. People like you are too pitiful. It's better for you to be an upright and real villain."

Mu Changsheng remained silent. He and his inner demon were destined to be in a life-and-death relationship, so he was too lazy to argue with him. As for the matter of Ji Chang, he had his own judgment on who was right and who was wrong.
