CHAPTER 654: CHAPTER 486: LYING LOW! KEEP LYING LOW! DILIGENT CULTIVATION! KEEP CULTIVATING!

One hundred years.

Two hundred years.

Three hundred years.

Under the relentless exploration and mining by countless fearless Divine Power Avatars of True Immortal level, Chen Jichuan extracts thousands of pounds of source jade from the ’Ancient Immortal Battlefield’ every century.

One hundred years, several thousand pounds.

One thousand years, tens of thousands of pounds.

Ten thousand years, hundreds of thousands of pounds.

In a short period, Chen Jichuan’s wealth has caught up with and even rapidly surpassed that of the East River Palace Master and other Daoist True Immortals.

The Divine Power Avatars are fearless unto death, and the source jade in the ’Ancient Immortal Battlefield’ is inexhaustible.

It’s a perfect match.

Mining source jade is one aspect.

Consuming source jade is another.

The source jade extracted from the ’Ancient Immortal Battlefield’ is mainly used for daily cultivation, while the remainder is traded by True Immortal Avatars like the ’Five Thunders Immortal’ Qizhenzi, the ’Vajra Immortal’ Dai Zong, the ’Four Extremes Wanderer’ Xu Ning, and the ’Seven-star Sword Master’ Wang Shan with various True Immortals in and outside of Shenzhou for resources needed for cultivating Divine Skills.

Money makes the world go round.

Among True Immortals, the ’source jade’, which aids in Dao enlightenment and strengthens the Divine Soul’s essence, is the hard currency, beloved by all.

But demand exceeds supply, even for Second Realm and Third Realm True Immortals, who never find ’source jade’ excessive, only insufficient. If they can exchange unnecessary wondrous items and treasures for source jade to enhance their cultivation, as long as the price is right, none will refuse.

The ’Dharma Domain Avatar’ oversees the Ancient Immortal Battlefield, extracting vast amounts of source jade.

This is earning money.

The four Divine Power Avatars use the source jade to pave the way, exchanging it for vast resources needed for cultivating Divine Skills.

This is spending money.

The advantage of having multiple avatars becomes clear.

More avatars, more identities to manage, and more channels available. With plenty of source jade, at least during the Third Realm of Divine Skills, resources will not be lacking.

As thousands of source jade are spent, the understanding of Divine Skills climbs steadily, with remarkable progress.

The avatars are extremely busy, while Chen Jichuan himself remains steadfast at Golden Wind Mountain and Sea, immersed in solitary cultivation.

Daoist practice.

Divine Skills.

Chen Jichuan’s progress is described as advancing by leaps and bounds, growing rapidly.

He is immersed in this pleasure.

During this period.

He also met with his disciples Shen Qingyi and Meng Yan.

These two disciples had indeed encountered fortunes on this journey. First, they stumbled upon a Gang Evil Treasure Land, where they refined their ’Essence, Qi, and Spirit’ Three Treasures, making them more solid and pure, greatly benefiting their future cultivation and allowing them to reach the Enlightenment Realm sooner.

Additionally, they discovered a Secret Realm that seemed unexplored. However, this Secret Realm was difficult to enter, guarded by various natural arrays, and despite all efforts, the duo’s mana and Daoist cultivation couldn’t gain entry.

Thus, they hurried back to report this to Chen Jichuan.

In the Daoist circle, they had heard that even True Immortals greatly value Secret Realms, always wanting more.

This Secret Realm was perfect to present to their teacher.

Yet Shen Qingyi and Meng Yan could never expect that their teacher, who possesses endless source jade from the ’Ancient Immortal Battlefield’, would not even consider the meager source jade output of a common Secret Realm. Also, this Secret Realm was a destiny for his two disciples, and as a teacher, Chen Jichuan would disdain to seize it. While other True Immortals might worry about their disciples’ struggles to prove the Dao and might intervene, even if not monopolizing the Secret Realm, helping the disciples gain its benefits to prove the Dao as True Immortals.

But Chen Jichuan neither cares nor has the interest.

In his view, as long as Shen Qingyi and Meng Yan cultivate step by step, proving as True Immortals is not difficult.

After they prove the Dao as True Immortals, they can then develop this Secret Realm themselves.

It’s only a matter of ten to twenty thousand years, after all.

Moreover, having a Secret Realm within reach but unattainable might even be more beneficial to their cultivation.

Therefore, after Chen Jichuan heard about it, he paid it no mind and continued his cultivation within the mountain gates. Neither he nor his avatars took any action.

As usual.

Time passes.

One thousand years.

Two thousand years.

Three thousand years.

In the blink of an eye, it has been forty thousand years since Chen Jichuan proved the Dao.
