He was surrounded by circles of intense Emperor's Fate golden light, which slowly condensed into form within the purple-gold divine radiance behind his head.
"The Emperor's Fate increases greatly!"
Roar roar roar!!
In the void, where Zhang Jian's gaze landed, he saw deep within the void, two phantom dragon shadows immediately formed behind him.
As they transitioned from illusory to real, the dragon scales seemed to envelop layers of rich purple-red radiance.
Seven Red Vein Fire Dragons.
These seven Red Vein Fire Dragons breathed in an ocean-like Emperor's Fate Dragon Qi, each possessing power not inferior to a Primordial Spirit True Monarch level, capable of erupting with the combined force of eight Primordial Spirit True Monarchs.
As the seven Red Vein Fire Dragons rotated, the ocean-like Emperor's Fate within them was absorbed, and the emerald green Nine Emperors' Seal before him lost its boost from the Emperor's Fate, gradually transforming into an ordinary piece of natural jade.
Zhang Jian casually put it away, a faint smile appearing in his eyes.
To be able to cultivate seven Red Vein Fire Dragons, he was already greatly satisfied.
The seven Red Vein Fire Dragons were incarnations of seven Primordial Spirit True Monarchs.
One could say his strength had taken a significant step forward.
After this enhancement, Zhang Jian remembered the ancestral hall he hadn't visited in a long time.
A few years ago, he had eradicated a Drought Fiend and killed so many monsters and Outer Demon Gods; coupled with the continuously strengthening national fortune of the Great Xia Dynasty, logically, conducting an ancestral offering at this time should yield considerable results.
Initially, he intended to accumulate more resources, hoping to extract something comparable to Nine-Colored Earth from the ancestral hall.
Yet, as his Dao Practice neared immortality, Zhang Jian decided not to wait any longer.
He planned to extract some immediate benefits from the ancestral hall to further enhance his foundation.
After the Immortal Welcoming Banquet, Zhang Jian used the excuse of the Great Xia Kingdom's strengthened national power over several years to hold a grand autumnal offering again.
Besides selectively pardoning some prisoners, he also led the Zhang clan to the Grand Ancestral Temple for ancestor worship.
Grand Ancestral Temple
After a stream of clan members left, Zhang Jian, clad in the Emperor's Robe, waved his hand, and a mountain of gold and silver yuanbao accumulated before him.
A majestic bronze tripod stood prominently.
Inside the tripod, countless gold and silver yuanbao fell like flowing water, turning into rolling blue smoke.
However, Zhang Jian noticed that the amount of gold and silver yuanbao burnt this time was only about two-thirds of the last instance.
"I fear this time's feedback might not be as good as before!"
Zhang Jian understood but didn't mind.
Whether or not there were returns, the effort had to be made.
Simultaneously, another Magical Treasure in the bronze tripod burned slowly, turning into blue smoke.
That was a Treasure Tripod.
Tripod Implement.
Formed from his understanding of part of the earth's mysteries.
Celestial Realm
Deep within the grand Immortal Realm.
'Daoist Monarch Qingxia' had been living comfortably during this period, greatly relieving her mental pressure by auctioning off an Innate Merit Spiritual Treasure at the Jasper Pool.
She could even use some Incense Fire Gold Brick to cultivate, enhancing her incarnation's origin.
The pure Flawless Incense could be directly supplied for incarnation refinement.
Because the essence of her incarnation was originally formed by faith incense.
If she cultivated well, she could transform it into a Daoist Monarch level incarnation.
She refined over half of the remaining hundred or so Incense Fire Gold Bricks, the divine light around her magnificent, with an implicit power of subduing the Path of Heaven and Earth hidden within.
At this moment, 'Daoist Monarch Qingxia' felt a stir, her gaze once again falling on the Two Realms Pool.
The roar of the Nine-Colored Pool Water, streaks of golden light boiling within, evidently indicated the emergence of significant incense faith from within.
"This time the scale should be much smaller!"
At this moment, 'Daoist Monarch Qingxia' observed that the scale of this sacrifice was far less grand than the previous one.
However, it still couldn't be underestimated.
Her figure appeared beside the Two Realms Pool, and with a wave of her hand, a grand immortal light shot into the Two Realms Pool, stabilizing it in moments.
Rumble!!
Moments later, there seemed to be Great Dao Celestial Sound emerging from within, and instantly, strands of golden light flew out, landing deep within her Incense Palace Lamp.
Those were Incense Fire Golden Bodies.
One Incense Fire Golden Body equaled a million Flawless Incense.
In the blink of an eye.
Seven or eight strands of Incense Fire Golden Light flew into the Incense Palace Lamp, those eight million Flawless Incense.
Subsequently, three more Incense Fire Golden Bodies flew out, ultimately forming eleven rings of brilliant Incense Fire Golden Light around the Incense Golden Lamp.
"Eleven million Flawless Incense!"
Witnessing this scene, 'Daoist Monarch Qingxia' slightly breathed a sigh of relief; this time, it was still good.
'Daoist Monarch Qingxia' had a trace of a peculiar expression in her eyes.
She wondered when she started hoping for smaller sacrificial scales, attaining lower-quality treasures!
Immediately, she refocused on the Two Realms Pool.
The anomalies in the Two Realms Pool had not ended.
The circulating Great Dao Celestial Sound inside grew more intense, and additional strands of Innate Divine Charm flowed out from within.
After waiting for a while, 'Daoist Monarch Qingxia' then saw the familiar Innate Divine Light emerge, and in a flash, a divine light landed, transforming into a soil-colored large tripod that flew out.
'Daoist Monarch Qingxia' raised her hand, enveloping the large tripod and storing it deep within her palm.
With only slight refinement, she understood the mysteries of this soil-colored large tripod.
"Earth Element Primordial Tripod, Earth Attribute Innate Merit Spiritual Treasure, containing an Innate Divine Prohibition, with an evil power containing a portion of Earth's authority, suitable for both offense and defense, indeed a fine treasure!"
'Daoist Monarch Qingxia' had a slight brightness in her eyes.
Defensive Merit Spiritual Treasures have exceptionally high value.
It's so dangerous outside; life-preserving treasures are always coveted.
Not to mention, Earth Attribute Innate Merit Spiritual Treasures are broadly applicable.
Among Heaven and Earth, Earth and Water attribute experts are the most numerous.
'Daoist Monarch Qingxia' was in good spirits; as for the type of treasure to Give in return, she was prepared. She auctioned off an Innate Merit Spiritual Treasure 'Five Dragon Mace' not long ago, and coincidentally 'won' a wondrous treasure birthed by Heaven and Earth. Its value might not match this sacrifice, but it's not far off.
At the thought, a concentrated divine light emerged from the depth of her palm, transforming into a rainbow that fell into the Nine-Colored Pool Water.
Grand Ancestral Temple
After everyone departed, Zhang Jian sealed the place, dwelling in the Grand Ancestral Temple.
Within the Grand Ancestral Temple, incense smoke permeated, and Zhang Jian's gaze swept over rows of Divine Master Tablets that were enveloped with intense golden light, especially the tablets of several ancestors, misted with a halo. With Great Xia's national fortune shielded, they were thriving in the Netherworld, not doing badly.
At that moment, Zhang Jian felt a stir, his gaze turning deep into the void.
Only to see atop the female 'Ancestor's Golden Body' in the center of the Grand Ancestral Temple, a golden brilliance circulated, forming a space channel, swiftly turning into a light stream that transformed into a peculiar blue river falling into the depth of Zhang Jian's palm.
This treasure directly integrated into his body upon falling into his palm.
Only after obtaining a part of its profound information did he reveal an odd expression in his eyes.
Innate Taiyin Law Dao Seed: A trace of Innate Taiyin Dao Qi Origin within the cosmic ocean of the Innate Dao Law, nurtured over hundreds of Inference Eras to form, condensing a point of Innate Taiyin Undying Spiritual Light, containing a hint of Innate Taiyin Dao Brand; using it, one can comprehend the Innate Taiyin Dao Law and condense an Innate Taiyin Dao Body, holding a part of the Taiyin Dao authority.
Second: Through it, extremity of Yin gives rise to Yang, gaining the secondary origin's Innate Yin Yang Dao Laws' profoundness.
Third: With the Innate Taiyin Law Dao Seed, condense a Taiyin Attribute Star Monarch Divine Body, with a certain probability facing a 'hostility' conversion by the Taiyin Star Monarch resulting in erasure...
Reading the third line, Zhang Jian felt a bit embarrassed.
Nevertheless, he was profoundly shocked.
This Innate Taiyin Law Dao Seed, in terms of value, was undoubtedly comparable to Nine-Colored Earth.
This and Nine-Colored Earth should be akin types of Heaven and Earth treasures, mythological items.
Yet the path he pursued was the Sheji Emperor's Path, making such Taiyin treasures in his hands overly wasted.
Even acquiring the Innate Taiyin Law Dao Seed, it was implausible for him to condense a Taiyin Attribute Dao Body, at most gaining insight into some Taiyin Dao Law's profundity.
Passing this kind of treasure to others was virtually not an option for Zhang Jian.
Such a precious treasure, how could it be squandered?
