Chapter 276: The Radiance of Ascending to the Saint Body Spreads Three Thousand Miles
Supre Purity Sect.
In a secluded garden, Wu Renyin t Mo Lingxiao.
This tall middle-aged man possessed a naturally commanding aura, his stern features instilling reverence at just a glance, making people instinctively lower their gaze, unable to look directly at him.
However, Mo Lingxiao did not look at Wu Renyin. Instead, he unfolded a letter and read it carefully.
When his eyes landed on the words "Ironclad Cloud Ship," a trace of delight flashed across his face, though he quickly concealed it, maintaining a calm deanor.
After a mont, he folded the letter and sighed softly, "This Shen Mo is truly a rare genius. What a pity he's in the Jade Cauldron Sect."
"I recall that the Jade Cauldron Sect has another genius nad Ye Yan, doesn't it? There was a ti when he outshone even my disciple."
"What virtue or capability does the Jade Cauldron Sect possess to be blessed with two unparalleled talents?"
Wu Renyin replied in a low voice, "Sect Master Mo, you are absolutely right."
Mo Lingxiao smiled faintly. "Go back and tell Governor Yu that I can agree to his terms, but the number of Ironclad Cloud Ships is too few."
Saying this, he spread his hands and raised ten fingers. "At least ten ships."
Wu Renyin froze, seemingly about to speak.
But Mo Lingxiao raised a single finger to his lips, silencing him. "Shh. I'm not negotiating with you. You're not qualified. Don't argue."
"Just deliver my ssage to your master."
With that, he waved dismissively, clearly unwilling to exchange another unnecessary word.
Wu Renyin took a deep breath. "Understood."
A few days later, Pill River Sect.
After leaving the Supre Purity Sect, Wu Renyin rushed non-stop aboard an Ironclad Cloud Ship to the Pill River Sect.
The Ironclad Cloud Ship's speed far surpassed that of most Core Formation cultivators, allowing him to travel from the Supre Purity Sect to the Pill River Sect within a few short days.
In a pavilion, Wu Renyin t the portly sect master of the Pill River Sect, Hai Qiankun.
At that mont, Hai Qiankun was being attended to by two young won in gauzy attire. They occasionally fed him fresh, tender red grapes, which he savored slowly.
Nearby, another beautiful woman was playing a guqin, the lodious notes rippling like water, arousing a sense of longing.
As for the letter Wu Renyin presented, Hai Qiankun didn't read it himself but had one of his attendants read it aloud.
Initially, Hai Qiankun sat with his eyes closed, imrsed in his leisure. However, when the attendant read the words "Pure Nascent Soul Transformation Pill formula," his eyes suddenly snapped open.
"Shen Mo discovered the formula for the Pure Nascent Soul Transformation Pill?"
"Interesting."
"Where did Governor Yu get this information?"
Hai Qiankun's small eyes darted toward Wu Renyin.
Wu Renyin replied solemnly, "Apologies, but this is a secret of the Governor's Office and cannot be disclosed."
Hai Qiankun chuckled lightly. "I was just asking casually. No need to be so tense."
Wu Renyin said seriously, "What is Sect Master Hai's stance? I need to report back to the governor."
Hai Qiankun smiled faintly. "The interests of the Pill River Sect must not be infringed upon by anyone."
Wu Renyin understood and nodded. "I see. I will take my leave now."
As Hai Qiankun watched him depart, he suddenly spoke.
"Spread the word: imdiately gather all information related to Shen Mo. I want it on my desk this afternoon."
The guqin-playing attendant nodded firmly. "Understood. I'll handle it right away."
Hai Qiankun fell into deep thought.
He realized he had underestimated Shen Mo.
That young man was far from ordinary. He couldn't be dismissed as just another unpredictable factor.
"The Jade Cauldron Sect is unbelievably lucky. How did they end up with three talents like Shen Mo, Ye Yan, and Lü Dongxuan?"
Hai Qiankun scratched his head in frustration.
The Pill River Sect was imnsely wealthy but had never been known for producing exceptional talents. It had always relied on its vast resources to recruit powerful rogue cultivators.
"If only Shen Mo were a genius of the Pill River Sect. What a pity, truly a pity. But soon, the Jade Cauldron Sect will be buried alongside him."
Hai Qiankun sighed deeply, casting the matter aside to continue enjoying his pleasant surroundings.
A Month Later, a Desolate Mountain in Mian Mountain Prefecture
Shen Mo casually selected a cave on the desolate mountain, driving away a den of black bears inside.
With a gust of fierce wind, he swept out the foul odor, skeletal remains, and filth, cleansing the cave. Only then did he sit down cross-legged.
Li Zhendao and the others had been deliberating over his comndation for an entire month, yet no conclusion had been reached.
Tired of waiting, Shen Mo accepted a task from the mission hall located in Mian Mountain Prefecture, arriving here to refine the Taiyi Saint Origin Pill.
He solemnly retrieved a jade box from his storage ring. Upon opening it, the box revealed a pill the size of a baby's fist, glowing with a verdant green hue.
The pill's surface bore intricate dark green patterns, seemingly random at first glance.
However, upon closer inspection, these patterns resonated with the profound laws of heaven and earth, exuding an enigmatic aura. Gazing at it too long caused dizziness and sparkling lights before one's eyes.
Shen Mo took a deep breath and circulated his spiritual energy to envelop the Taiyi Saint Origin Pill.
The refinent process began.
A pill of this size could not be consud directly—it wouldn't even fit into one's mouth. Thus, it had to be refined externally before absorption.
Soon, strands of erald-green dicinal energy, as fine as threads, began to seep into Shen Mo's body through his nose and mouth under the guidance of his spiritual energy.
The energy slowly and steadily nourished his physical body.
By the end of the day, the Taiyi Saint Origin Pill had only shrunk by a single layer—a shockingly slow process.
Shen Mo, however, remained patient, continuing to expend his spiritual energy to refine the pill. A vast amount of energy was drawn from his spiritual sea.
The spiritual energy flowed like snow, while the Taiyi Saint Origin Pill resembled a blazing sun.
Even with torrents of spiritual energy pouring over it, the pill's brilliance only dimd slightly.
For an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator, a day of such refinent would likely drain their energy reserves entirely, forcing them to stop and recover before resuming.
But for Shen Mo, after an entire day of constant refining, less than one-fifth of his spiritual energy had been consud.
He even had surplus energy to sustain his Solar Essence Fla and Green Lotus Earth Core Fla, ensuring they didn't turn against him due to a lack of sustenance.
Day after day passed.
Finally, on the seventh day, the Taiyi Saint Origin Pill had diminished to the size of a sesa seed.
Nearly every trace of its dicinal power had been absorbed into Shen Mo's body.
At a certain mont, a remarkable transformation took place in his physique.
At first glance, his muscles, bones, and flesh seed unchanged.
Yet on closer inspection, his entire deanor had undergone a tamorphosis—ethereal, transcendent, like an immortal descending to the mortal realm.
Boom!
A pillar of light shot skyward at that mont, piercing through the clouds.
The radiance spread across three thousand miles, lingering without fading.
Within a thousand miles, flower petals rained from the heavens, and a sweet fragrance filled the air.
Within a hundred miles, all beasts prostrated in submission, and vegetation flourished vibrantly.
In the sky above, clouds shimred, and the sun and moon seed to hang side by side.
A series of extraordinary phenona unfolded, as if heralding the ergence of a supre treasure.
Cultivators and mortals alike in the area surrounding the desolate mountain were alard.
Unbidden, their gazes turned toward the source.
Mortals knelt down devoutly, chanting praises of an immortal.
Lower-realm cultivators swallowed nervously, sensing the imnse pressure radiating from the skyward pillar of light.
Only Nascent Soul cultivators dared withstand the overwhelming force as they made their way toward the desolate mountain.
None of them knew whether the phenonon was caused by the birth of a priceless treasure or the breakthrough of a powerful cultivator.
Either way, it was worth investigating—perhaps they might stumble upon a fortune.
At this mont, Shen Mo abruptly opened his eyes.
A sharp gleam flashed within them, shooting out and piercing the rocky wall in front of him.
He exhaled a murky breath, his gaze flickering with excitent and wonder.
"After ascending to the Saint Body, I've gained such remarkable abilities."
"I need to find a place to test them properly."
