Time flew by.
Just like that, three years passed in a flash.
The death of Blood Spirit Demon Lord did not change the current overall situation.
Opportunities emerged everywhere in the cultivation world of Kyushu, and various divine and Demonic Techniques appeared one after another. Under this great trend, the four Holy Lands were powerless to maintain the previous peaceful situation and could only do their best to seal the Demonic Abyss.
And children of Luck like Li Taiqing, Xie Liuyun, and Lu Fan were naturally not people who could stay idle.
Several of them began to train in Zhongzhou, subduing demons and devils, and maintaining order.
Han Xuanji would occasionally receive information about these people, and he had no worries.
Within Zhongzhou, and even throughout the Kyushu Continent, everything was within his Divine Thought. Even if he let them run wild, they couldn't cause any major disaster.
...
Kunlun, Immortal Plant Garden.
This place was filled with Spiritual Qi, surrounded by countless Heaven And Earth Treasures, making it an excellent Holy Land for cultivation.
This day.
Under the Pan Tao tree, Han Xuanji began his daily check-in.
"System, check-in."
"Congratulations to the host for successfully checking in at Kunlun Immortal Plant Garden, obtaining nine "Thousand Year Pan Tao"."
"Thousand Year Pan Tao: A top-grade Immortal Fruit formed after a thousand years of nurturing by the essence of Kunlun's earth veins. Consuming it can extend Lifespan by a thousand years, temper the Immortal Physique's Origin, strengthen the Divine Soul's Dao foundation, and has a very small chance of Awakening or strengthening hidden ancient Bloodline imprints within the body."
"The Dao essence here has significantly decreased. It is recommended that the host go to other places with Dao essence to check in."
"Not bad."
Han Xuanji nodded slightly.
This Thousand Year Pan Tao was also a good Immortal Pill, something that even Cultivators in the Ascension Realm could benefit from, so he naturally wouldn't dislike it.
In fact, he had checked in for hundreds of these Thousand Year Pan Tao over the years.
As for the nine thousand year pan tao, Han Xuanji had only checked in for three of them in these three years, which was enough to show how precious this item was.
It wasn't that one could be produced in nine thousand years; it was very possible that not a single one would be born in tens of thousands of years.
In these three years, he had not rushed to eat these few nine thousand year pan tao, but instead planned to consume them together when he was close to Breakthrough, as that would have a better effect, and consuming them together would also increase the chance of Bloodline Awakening.
However, this meant he couldn't continue checking in?
While Han Xuanji was pondering, familiar footsteps came from behind the ancient tree's gnarled branches.
Wind Leisurely Master stepped through the morning dew, his robes brushing against the damp Immortal Plants.
"Fellow Daoist Han, I've come to bother you again!"
His voice arrived before he did.
Wind Leisurely Master walked over, carrying a pot of supreme-grade Spiritual Wine, Drunken Immortal Brew, laughing heartily, his wide Daoist robe gently swaying in the wind.
Han Xuanji opened his eyes, a slight smile on his lips:
"I just finished cultivating, and you've already brought the wine."
On weekdays, Wind Leisurely Master would occasionally bring him some Immortal Wine and Spiritual Brew, and cut the Pan Tao for him to eat.
Han Xuanji naturally wouldn't refuse.
Wind Leisurely Master laughed heartily, sat down cross-legged opposite him, and with a wave of his hand, a table and two jade cups appeared. The Immortal Wine poured down, and the aroma of the wine instantly filled the air, even causing the branches and leaves of the Pan Tao tree to gently sway, as if intoxicated by the scent of the wine.
"This wine was brewed by this old man using 'Nine Nether Cold Spring Fruit' and 'Crimson Flame Profound Spirit Fruit'. One Yin and one Yang, the mysteries are endless, and the taste is unique. You should try it."
Han Xuanji took the wine cup, took a small sip, and immediately felt a strange power of intertwined ice and fire flowing within his body, even invigorating his Divine Soul.
"Good wine."
Han Xuanji praised.
With this one sip, not only was he intoxicated by the rich aroma of the wine, but his cultivation also increased by a few points.
"Fellow Daoist Feng Xian, after three years of bothering you, it truly is difficult for you."
Han Xuanji's voice was gentle, and he felt quite moved.
Wind Leisurely Master's heart stirred, then he waved his hand, his smile benevolent:
"How can it be a bother?
With Fellow Daoist here, this garden has gained an extra touch of Immortal Qi.
It is a great blessing for this old man to be able to discuss the mysteries of Heaven and Earth with Fellow Daoist every day."
This was true.
Han Xuanji's cultivation was not only profound, but his comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was also something ordinary Ascended Immortals could not compare to. Each discussion on the Dao benefited him greatly.
"Fellow Daoist's aura is harmonious. It seems a Breakthrough is imminent, and you plan to leave."
Wind Leisurely Master's words carried a hint of reluctance.
After three years of companionship, the vast, ethereal, yet restrained temperament of Han Xuanji made Wind Leisurely Master feel even more unfathomable.
Han Xuanji nodded, not concealing anything:
"This place has reached its Bottleneck for me; it's time to go, and there's no need to trouble Fellow Daoist."
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Wind Leisurely Master's eyes, followed by a hearty laugh.
He tilted his head back and drained the wine in his cup, saying boldly:
"Since that's the case, this old man won't keep you any longer."
Han Xuanji nodded, raising his cup to clink with his:
"Fellow Daoist Feng Xian, thank you for your care these past three years. If there's an Opportunity in the future, I will surely drink with you again."
Wind Leisurely Master waved his hand, smiling:
"Go on, go on. This old man's Immortal Plant Garden always welcomes you."
Han Xuanji nodded slightly.
Three years had passed, and the Dao essence of this place had significantly decreased, so there was no need for him to stay any longer.
...
Tianjing Peak, Bamboo House.
Outside the window, clouds surged, and the evening glow hung in the sky.
Han Xuanji sat cross-legged, his Divine Thought sinking into the System space.
"It's time to tally the gains."
In these three years, his cultivation had steadily improved, already approaching the fifth layer of the Ascension Realm.
Three nine thousand year pan tao lay quietly in a corner of the System space, shrouded in purple mist and permeated with Immortal Qi, exuding boundless vitality.
In addition, Thousand Year Pan Tao were piled up like a small mountain on the side.
Besides, some rare and exotic Immortal Plants, each glowing differently and emitting various auras, were all top-grade Heaven And Earth Treasures, rare Immortal treasures and wonders in the outside world.
There were many of them, and quite a few were main ingredients for refining Immortal Pills.
"It's time to take out these nine thousand year pan tao to help me Breakthrough."
Han Xuanji's mind stirred, and he took out the Pan Tao from the System space.
This was the first time he had taken them out since he checked in. The fruits were as warm and smooth as jade, and a unique fragrance instantly filled the air, permeated with rich spiritual vitality. Smelling it made one feel completely comfortable, as if a single whiff could prolong one's Lifespan by several years.
"The vitality contained in this Pan Tao, Mortals probably can't bear it."
Han Xuanji thought to himself.
Although legends say that eating a true Pan Tao can make one an Ascended Immortal and grant eternal life.
But that probably refers to "Mortals" in the Immortal Realm, who most likely already have cultivation, not Mortals with no cultivation at all.
However, if the Pan Tao were cut into small pieces and eaten bit by bit, it could greatly improve an ordinary person's Physique and extend their Lifespan by many years.
"My Lifespan is abundant, so this effect is wasted on me. However, I can take some ordinary Thousand Year Pan Tao back and give one to my family in this life."
Han Xuanji pondered.
The nine thousand year pan tao were of great use to him, but there were quite a few ordinary Thousand Year Pan Tao, so it wouldn't hurt to give a few to acquaintances and friends.
"But for now, it's better to Breakthrough as soon as possible."
Han Xuanji knew that his own strength was the foundation. As long as he continued to Breakthrough, he would never lack good things.
If it weren't for his powerful strength, how could he converse and laugh with Wind Leisurely Master, making the other party willingly offer treasures?
In this world, apart from some close relatives and trusted friends, no one would be good to you for no reason.
No longer hesitating, Han Xuanji took a light bite.
The pulp melted in his mouth, transforming into an indescribable warm torrent that instantly rushed through his limbs and bones.
Rumble!
It was as if thunder exploded within his body!
The warm current was not merely pure energy, but the Origin power containing vitality.
In an instant, Han Xuanji could feel his immortal essence surging, and his cultivation rapidly increasing.
