BXBX NOVEL Chapter 106: Chapter 96: Ancient Furnace of Creation
"I must exchange it, no doubt about it!"
Without even a moment\'s hesitation, Ye Chen decided to exchange for this precious item.
This treasure, harboring the eighteen powerful ambiances awakened by Heavenly Saint Di Kong during his Spirit Sea Realm stage, was tremendously beneficial for Ye Chen\'s comprehension of ambiances and cultivation of Sword Intents; naturally, he would not let such an opportunity slip away.
Spending ten million Golden Light Beads to exchange for this item was absolutely worth it!
"Artifact Spirit, the first item I am exchanging for is this, the premier treasure of the Myriad Treasures Stele—Heavenly Saint Di Kong\'s Innate Essence Map!"
Ye Chen said to the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact.
"After more than a thousand years, someone from your three clans is finally able to exchange for this first treasure!" With a sigh of emotion, the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact smiled and nodded.
Then, amid the swirling winds and clouds, an ancient scroll that was rolled up began to descend in front of Ye Chen.
After the scroll landed in front of Ye Chen, it slowly unfurled towards him.
Next, a blinding light completely enveloped Ye Chen.
Amid the blinding glow, Ye Chen saw a miraculous golden monkey manifesting in the void, continuously practicing various moves, while voices conveying the methods of the mind resounded from it.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Merely listening to a few of these mental method voices and observing a few moves, Ye Chen\'s mind felt as though it was being bombarded by countless ambiance thoughts, plunging it instantly into a sensation akin to an upheaval of the heavens and the earth.
Hum!
At that moment, the scroll slowly rolled up again, ultimately sealing shut and flying into Ye Chen\'s hands.
It was only upon grasping the ancient scroll that Ye Chen revived from the bombardment of the numerous ambiance thoughts. Noticing the youths around him did not exhibit the shocked expressions like his, Ye Chen instantly understood that the scroll had just demonstrated its powerful ambiances to him, while the others had not sensed them.
"The first treasure!"
"Indeed, it\'s the first treasure!"
"The strength of the ambiance contained within surpasses even the Wind-Thunder Ambience that Qian Jizi, the senior from Thousand Lotus Cave Abode, demonstrated! Truly worthy of being the secret map containing eighteen powerful ambiances!"
Just a fleeting glimpse was enough for Ye Chen to recognize the scroll\'s value in his hands!
Ye Chen took a deep breath, clenching the scroll tightly, and then turned his gaze back to the Myriad Treasures Stele.
Having acquired the first treasure and spent ten million Golden Light Beads, he still had over fifteen million Golden Light Beads left, enough to exchange for many more treasures.
Creation Yuan Pill!
Ye Chen\'s gaze shifted to the second treasure of the Myriad Treasures Stele.
"The Creation Yuan Pill can help those in the True Qi Realm smoothly advance into the Spirit Sea, which I will need for my future entry into the Spirit Sea, so I must exchange for one!
And for those in the later stages of the Spirit Sea Realm aiming to break through to the Rotating Pill Realm, possessing this pill will increase their chances by seventy percent, making it beneficial for those in the Spirit Sea Realm as well!"
At this moment, Ye Chen thought of Jiang Yao.
Jiang Yao was currently at the early stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, and when she aimed to break through to the Rotating Pill Realm in the future, the Creation Yuan Pill would be of great help to her, so Ye Chen naturally intended to exchange one for her as well.
"It\'s a pity that the Creation Yuan Pill must be taken by those in the True Qi Realm before they reach the age of thirty, otherwise, I would exchange one for each of the three clan patriarchs as well. It could help them all step into the Spirit Sea Realm!"
The more Ye Chen thought about it, the more he realized the preciousness of the Creation Yuan Pill.
Unfortunately, the three old clan leaders of the three major families were all over sixty years old and had exceeded the age limit for using the Creation Yuan Pill.
"This pill is of great use; both Jiang Yao and I can use it, and maybe others will need it in the future. The more I can exchange, the better!"
With this in mind, Ye Chen turned to the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact and asked, "Honorable Artifact Spirit, how many Creation Yuan Pills can I exchange for?"
The exchange for each Creation Yuan Pill required one million Golden Light Beads, and Ye Chen still had plenty of them. If there were no restrictions, he indeed could exchange for many pills.
"Each person can only exchange for two Creation Yuan Pills, one for your breakthrough into the Spirit Sea Realm, and one for when you challenge the Rotating Pill Realm. Of course, you can also give these pills to someone else. But in total, there are only two chances for exchange," the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact replied.
"Not just for the Creation Yuan Pill, there are also limits on other treasures. The third treasure on the Myriad Treasures Stele, the \'Life Origin Pill,\' each person can only exchange for five, and the fourth treasure, the \'Ethereal Spirit Ring,\' you can only exchange for one!" the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact announced.
Ye Chen nodded in understanding.
Indeed, it was not possible to allow one person to exchange for too many as these treasures were most likely left by Heavenly Saint Di Kong. If one person took them all, what would be left for future openers of the Ancestral Lands? Naturally, there would be limits on the number of shares for each opening of the Ancestral Lands.
"Then exchange for two Creation Yuan Pills!" Ye Chen declared.
After the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact passed the Creation Yuan Pills to Ye Chen, he continued with the exchange of other treasures.
Next, Ye Chen exchanged for the maximum limit of five Life Origin Pills and one Ethereal Spirit Ring.
After the young members of the other three clans picked some Cultivation Techniques and treasures using the hundred thousand Golden Light Beads Ye Chen provided, Ye Chen directly exchanged for all the remaining shares of treasures.
In the end, apart from the four most precious treasures of the Myriad Treasures Stele, Ye Chen exchanged for three high-grade spiritual weapons, twelve sets of superior, profound-grade Cultivation Techniques, forty-three medium-grade spiritual weapons, fifty-seven types of mid-level profound-grade Cultivation Techniques, thirty low-grade spiritual weapons, and one hundred seventy-nine kinds of low-level profound-grade Cultivation Techniques!
He also obtained sixty-six minor spiritual pills and fifteen sets of complete profound instruments, along with profound-grade weapons and superior yellow-grade Cultivation Techniques!
Ye Chen swept away all the treasures, and he hadn\'t even spent all his Golden Light Beads yet!
In the end, even the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact could only helplessly shake its head and give a wry smile, packing the remaining treasures into the Ethereal Spirit Ring and handing it over to Ye Chen.
Although Ye Chen had exchanged for a countless number of treasures,
apart from the four treasures from the Myriad Treasures Stele and one or two weapons and Cultivation Techniques that had caught his interest, he did not plan to use the vast majority of them. Cultivation Techniques and weapons were not about having more but about suitability. Ye Chen understood the principle that too much can be as bad as too little, and what suited one best was paramount.
Ye Chen planned to hand over all the extra treasures he had selected to the three clan leaders once he left the Ancestral Land Secret Realm for them to distribute to the clan members for use!
The three clans, spread across Qingyang City and its subordinate towns, had hundreds of thousands of clan members, with thousands engaged in the martial arts. Although Ye Chen had exchanged many treasures, he still thought them insufficient for distribution among the clan members.
Each opening of the Ancestral Lands had a limited number of treasures, and Ye Chen was helpless regarding this.
However, with the batch of treasures exchanged by Ye Chen, it was undeniable that the strength of the three clans would leap forward significantly.
After all, Ye Chen had exchanged so many Cultivation Techniques and weapons that they would suffice for the warriors of the three clans to cultivate and use for many years!
When Ye Chen\'s treasure exchange was complete, the great opportunity in the outer area of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm finally came to an end.
The young warriors who had entered the Ancestral Land of the three clans, with their own efforts and the help of Ye Chen, had all made great gains!
Smiles bloomed on everyone\'s faces.
There were still chances unchallenged, but the gains they had now were already substantial.
At this moment, the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact\'s voice continued, "Alright, the trial of this outer area has completely ended!"
"I want to congratulate you, you have created a miracle. For the first time, all the treasures I offered have been exchanged completely!"
As it spoke, the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact looked at Ye Chen and shook its head with a smile.
Ye Chen and the other young warriors exchanged glances and then also showed smiles to the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact.
"Since you\'ve all paid the ten thousand Golden Light Beads to enter the middle region of the secret realm,"
"Next, you will all enter the Ancestral Land\'s middle region!"
"To undertake the second major trial and grand opportunity in the middle region!"
As the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact spoke, Ye Chen, Bai Xiaodie, and everyone else looked toward the Teleportation Array beside the Myriad Treasures Stele.
"What will the trial be in the middle region of the Ancestral Land?"
"What grand opportunity and fortune will there be?"
Watching the huge Teleportation Array circle of several zhang in radius, everyone speculated.
In the outer area of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm, they had already attained so many gains; thus, there was naturally even greater anticipation for the more mysterious middle region.
At this time, the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact said, "In the middle region of the Ancestral Land, there are \'eighteen\' testing grounds!"
"The top ten among you, who have received the Ancestral Ground Secret Map, will be teleported to their respective testing grounds depicted in the map once you enter the Teleportation Array."
"Those who did not obtain the Ancestral Ground Secret Map will be randomly teleported to one of the remaining eight testing grounds after entering the Teleportation Array."
"Now, enter the Teleportation Array and head to your respective testing grounds!"
Upon the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact\'s instructions, all the young warriors headed towards the Teleportation Array.
"Let\'s go."
"Towards the middle region of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm!"
Some young warriors took the lead and walked into the Teleportation Array, after which they disappeared in a flash of light.
"Ye Chen, we must all strive hard in the trials of the Ancestral Land\'s middle region!" said Bai Xiaodie, approaching Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled and nodded at Bai Xiaodie.
Finally, Ye Chen, Bai Xiaodie, and all the others successively entered the Teleportation Array.
With a flash of light, they arrived at their second testing ground!
"Boom!"
Within the flash of light, a young figure emerged from a Teleportation Array circle located in the deepest and most spacious area of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm\'s middle region.
This figure was Ye Chen, who had been teleported from the outer to the middle region of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm.
"This place... it is indeed the realm I saw when I first obtained the Ancestral Ground Secret Map!"
Ye Chen exited the Teleportation Array and looked around the testing ground he had entered.
Upon seeing the eighteen giant golden monkey statues, each towering thirty meters high in the center of the great valley, Ye Chen couldn\'t help but exclaim aloud.
The valley\'s appearance precisely matched the scene depicted in the secret map he had envisioned when he initially acquired the Ancestral Ground Secret Map!
At this time, not only had Ye Chen entered the realm indicated by his Ancestral Ground Secret Map,
Bai Xiaodie had also arrived at a valley with nine golden monkey statues, Qian Ming was teleported beneath a giant golden waterfall...
Thirty young warriors were scattered at various locations within the middle region of the secret realm!
As all the young warriors were observing their surroundings, huge ancient furnaces started to rise within each realm.
The vast furnaces were over ten meters high and seven to eight meters wide, larger than many houses!
The young warriors looked minuscule standing beneath the furnaces.
These furnaces could fit hundreds of such young warriors inside!
"Such a huge furnace!"
"Could this... have something to do with the middle region\'s trial of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm?"
The young warriors were guessing when the voice of the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact reached everyone\'s ears: "Your second trial will take place within this \'Ancient Furnace of Creation\'!"
Ancient Furnace of Creation?
As Ye Chen looked at the suddenly risen giant ancient furnace, endless beams of gold light shot out from the eyes of the eighteen golden monkey statues that stood in the valley of the same eighteen monkey statues where he was located.
All of this limitless golden light eventually concentrated into the giant ancient furnace that had just appeared.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Ye Chen could clearly hear sounds of water waves within the furnace.
"Could this be..."
As Ye Chen sent forth his divine consciousness into the furnace, he was immediately aware of golden Spiritual Liquid slowly materializing within. This occurred after the endless gold light shot from the eighteen golden monkey statues entered the ancient furnace.
In the end, the ancient furnace filled up with the golden Spiritual Liquid and the light shooting from the golden monkey statues ceased; their eyes once again returned to a state of calm.
