Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 774 - 394: Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Again, an Opportunity from the Black Dragon Sea Region
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
"The growth of the Primordial Talisman Sect is truly remarkable."
"Its destiny has surged with great intensity over these past years."
Jiang Fan felt a ripple of emotion deep within his heart.
He observed the Fortune Golden Dragon manifesting upon his form, noting it had expanded significantly in size compared to its previous state.
It was undeniable that the Primordial Talisman Sect was currently traversing a phase of rapid development, causing its destiny to swell at an incredible pace.
He no longer felt the need to fret over small matters.
Having reached this level of stability, the Sect was now capable of functioning on its own.
Particularly under the aegis of such powerful destiny, exceptional prodigies were surfacing one after another.
At this point, the number of Qi Cultivation Stage practitioners had climbed past two hundred thousand, while even those at the Foundation Establishment Stage had exceeded a hundred.
Disciples at the Golden Core stage, however, had yet to make an appearance.
Even so, for a Sect that had only recently begun its ascent, such a rate of progress was nothing short of miraculous.
"Conversely, the advancement within the Black Dragon Sea Region remains quite mediocre."
"It is stagnant, showing no signs of major breakthrough."
Jiang Fan rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
Currently, his influence was split between two territories: the Western Continent and the Black Dragon Sea Region.
Previously, he had secured dominance over four prominent Nascent Soul clans within the Black Dragon Sea Region, which were led by four Nascent Soul cultivators.
These were Wei Hanquan, Shi Hongyi, Ge Hanrong, and Fei Quansheng.
This gave him partial authority over the waters and several islands.
However, because he hadn't focused much attention on his assets in the Black Dragon Sea Region, that branch of his power had remained dormant without much evolution.
To him, expanding his worldly influence was never the top priority.
The most vital pursuit was always his personal Cultivation.
As long as his Cultivation continued to rise, then so-called power would naturally fall into his hands.
For example, if he were to reach the Divinity Transformation stage, unifying the entirety of the Black Dragon Sea Region would be effortless.
There would be no requirement for complex schemes or plots.
Boom~~
Suddenly, Jiang Fan felt a vibration from his Cause and Effect Communication Immortal Talisman. It was a transmission sent by Wei Hanquan, a subordinate with a Nascent Soul cultivation.
In the past, he had produced many Sub-talismans, distributing them not only to the disciples of the Primordial Talisman Sect but also to the various subordinates under his thumb.
After all, the utility of such communication talismans provided a massive tactical edge for any cultivator.
"Master, please save us! We have encountered a dire crisis!"
Wei Hanquan’s message arrived instantly, a desperate plea for assistance.
"What has happened?"
Jiang Fan’s brows twitched as he sent a reply immediately. It functioned much like a WeChat account from his previous life.
However, communicating via talismans required no physical typing; a simple thought could be manifested into text and transmitted, making it far more efficient than WeChat.
"Master, the four of us went on an expedition and stumbled upon the ruins of a prehistoric cave mansion."
"Inside, we discovered a Divinity Transformation spirit medicine—the Nine-Turn Reviving Ganoderma."
Wei Hanquan quickly explained their journey into the ancient ruins, which had resulted in a stroke of immense luck.
They never expected their fortune to be so great as to yield a Divinity Transformation spirit medicine.
"A Divinity Transformation spirit medicine? The Nine-Turn Reviving Ganoderma?!"
Upon reading the text, a look of sheer excitement crossed Jiang Fan’s face.
He was well aware of how rare such a Divinity Transformation spirit medicine was, as it was classified as a Tier Five Spirit Medicine.
Legend has it that it blooms only once every thousand years and bears fruit once every ten thousand. It thrives only in Cold and Desolate Lands and is nearly extinct within the Cultivation Realm.
If consumed, it could drastically improve the odds of a Nascent Soul Perfection cultivator successfully reaching the Divinity Transformation stage.
Even for an established Divinity Transformation cultivator, this medicine could mend injuries to the soul and bolster the power of their divine consciousness.
The sheer value of such a Divinity Transformation spirit medicine was beyond calculation.
It was something that could not be bought, regardless of how many Spirit Stones one possessed.
He was surprised that Wei Hanquan and the others had been fortunate enough to stumble upon such a prize.
After all, the luck of these four Nascent Soul cultivators had been quite average in the past, rarely leading them to extraordinary events.
Reflecting on it, however, there was likely a strong connection to himself.
By serving as his subordinates, they were naturally shielded by his potent destiny.
This would enhance their personal luck, allowing them to encounter frequent opportunities.
The Nine-Turn Reviving Ganoderma was precisely that kind of rare opportunity.
Naturally, any fortune found by his subordinates was essentially his own.
"Who is hunting you?"
Jiang Fan inquired bluntly.
"Master, we are being chased by five Tier Four Late Stage demon cultivators."
"They found the ancient cave mansion ruins at the same time we did."
"Once they saw we had claimed the Divinity Transformation spirit medicine, they began a relentless pursuit."
"These demon cultivators possess terrifying strength; we are no match for them at all."
"Had it not been for the Tier Four Spirit Talismans you bestowed upon us, we would have perished long ago," Wei Hanquan admitted with a sense of helplessness.
While finding the Nine-Turn Reviving Ganoderma was a blessing, being targeted by Tier Four Late Stage demon cultivators was a nightmare—a life-or-death struggle.
If their Master could not intervene, their deaths were certain.
After all, Tier Four Late Stage demon cultivators were on par with Late-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivators. Early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators stood no chance; the power gap was simply insurmountable.
Of course, they could potentially survive by discarding their physical shells and using the Instant Teleportation of their Nascent Souls.
The drawback was that such an act would permanently halt their future cultivation progress.
Unless they reached a point of absolute hopelessness, they would never choose that path.
"I understand."
Jiang Fan nodded to himself.
This was the typical path for ordinary cultivators when they encountered great fortune.
Generally speaking, great opportunities and great disasters always go hand in hand.
