When Chen Nianzhi heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
The Yuanshen Heavenly Gate is not as good as the Mana Heavenly Gate. After all, the Yuanshen is extremely fragile, so naturally it cannot be forcibly broken through with the help of ordinary foreign objects.
In the Three Thousand Immortal Realm, there are three main methods to break the Heavenly Barrier of the Yuanshen, namely the Daluo Miaofa, the Soul Immortal Medicine, and the incense method.
Among these three methods, no matter which one they are, the first two are gentler and slower than the method of breaking the magic barrier and the elixir treasure, and the effect is naturally greatly reduced.
Generally speaking, Da Luo's magic method and divine soul elixir are extremely precious. The minimum value of the divine soul elixir that can help people break the limits of the soul starts from one or two hundred innate energy.
Moreover, most of these high-value soul elixirs can only help Yuanshen break the limit seven or eight times, and it is difficult to break the most critical ninth limit.
How many ancient immortals from the Fourth Tribulation have exchanged their life savings for divine soul elixirs, and used them together with the magical magic of Daluo, but they are all trapped in the realm of the Eight Limits and unable to complete their final transformation.
This shows how difficult it is to break through the Heavenly Gate of Yuanshen. This step is much more difficult than breaking through the Heavenly Gate of Mana.
Therefore, many ancient immortals in the Three Thousand Immortal Realm finally chose the third method, which is the way of incense.
Incense, as something transformed by the will of all living beings, is a nearly omnipotent material with various special miraculous effects.
The most common one is to refine incense and heavenly silver to obtain the will power of all living beings when breaking through the realm, so as to bless one's body and increase the certainty of breakthrough.
However, incense is poisonous, and immortals and above are very cautious about it. Very few people are willing to be tainted by the power of this incense.
But it is undeniable that incense heavenly silver really has miraculous effects. It can not only bless the power of wishes, but can also be used to create incense golden bodies and souls.
When ghosts and immortals who walk in the underworld reach the perfection of heavenly immortality, they only need to obtain enough power of incense to create a golden body of incense.
If a powerful Nether Celestial Immortal forges a golden body of incense, he will get rid of the limitations of having no physical body and have combat power comparable to that of Celestial Immortals of the same level.
It is said that the incense golden body can be cultivated to the extreme, and can even be cast into the incense body, which can help immortals break through the physical barrier.
The same is true for the way of the Yuanshen. If a Four Tribulations Ancient Immortal uses massive amounts of incense as materials to create an incense Yuanshen, it is possible to break the Heavenly Barrier of the Yuanshen.
But incense is poisonous, and once you use it to create the Heavenly Pass of the Soul, you will have to bear a huge karma.
If you cannot refine the distracting thoughts of billions of sentient beings in the incense, then when you break through the Great Law, you will definitely be disturbed by the endless distracting thoughts in the incense.
In addition, the Yuanshen Tianguan is cast with incense, and the Yuanshen is almost integrated with the wishes of all living beings. Once it perishes in the future, the Yuanshen will also end up in a place of eternal destruction.
Unless the origin of this life is cut off during reincarnation, even if he can be reincarnated, he will only be a madman infected by countless resentments.
But if you cut off the origin of this life, then there will be no trace of this life in the next life. It is even extremely difficult to embark on the path of cultivation, and it is very likely that you will never be able to become an immortal in reincarnation.
When Chen Nianzhi thought about this, he couldn't help but look at the two people and said: "Although the incense method is convenient, it will have great consequences."
"Both of them are innately divine. They are very sure of breaking through the Six Tribulations Ancient Immortal in the future. Even if there is not enough opportunity, there is no need to wait one or two more calamities. There is no need to risk taking this path."
Hearing this, Tiannu and Tianya Patriarch also nodded.
In the world, those who use incense to break through the heavenly barrier of Yuanshen are almost all ancient immortals whose Yuanshen is trapped in the realm of the seventh or eighth limit and cannot break through for several tribulations.
If there is really no other way, who would want to choose this obviously flawed path?
Seeing that the two of them had listened, Chen Nianzhi didn't say anything more. He just stood up and said, "This breakthrough was successful, and my cultivation has also increased a bit."
"Next, let's go and see if the opportunities at the edge of the Chaos Sea are as endless as expected."
The goddess also nodded, smiled and said, "It should be like this."
"..."
Next, the three of them began to truly explore the sea of chaos.
This sea of chaos is indeed a sea of chaos, even if it is only on the edge, it can be called a chance.
The three of them wandered among them and soon discovered a lot of ancient chaos beasts, and even found two in a group of hundreds of ancient chaos beasts.
Facing these ancient chaos beasts, they did not hold back at all. They defeated two groups of chaos beasts one after another and killed some scattered ancient beasts.
In just 20,000 years, they had killed more than a hundred ancient chaos beasts, including even two chaos beast kings.
In fact, they encountered more ancient chaos beasts, but the king of chaos beasts in the Chaos Sea was extremely intelligent, and the ancient chaos beasts would also run away once they were surprised that they were outmatched, so many ancient chaos beasts had fled.
"Two chaotic beast kings, and more than thirty innate Qi."
"It's a pity that I didn't encounter the best Chaos Nest."
After the battle, Chen Nianzhi killed two chaos beast kings and couldn't help but said with some regret.
Tiannu and Tianya Ancestor also felt a little regretful, but they still expected it: "Within the three thousand immortal realms and ten thousand 'paths', there are very few top-quality chaos lairs. This is what was expected."
According to the standards recognized by the Three Thousand Immortal Realm, the distance that the Ancient Immortal Ancestor flies at full strength for one year is one path.
The edge of the Three Thousand Immortal Realm is the depth of the Chaos Sea, and the area within 10,000 paths is also called the shallow layer of the Chaos Sea.
The distance from ten thousand to one hundred thousand is called the outer layer of chaos, and the distance beyond one hundred thousand is recognized as the depth of the sea of chaos.
Although there is a Chaos Beast King in the shallow layer of the Chaos Sea within 10,000 Ways, the top-quality Chaos Lairs occupied by the Chaos Beast King are rarely within these 10,000 Ways. Even if they occasionally exist, most of them have been raided many times by the major ancient immortals.
.
If you really want to find the best Chaos Lair, unless your luck is really against the heavens, you will have to risk going some distance deep into the Sea of Chaos, to the overseas layer of Chaos that is far away from the three thousand immortal realms and ten thousand ‘paths’.
However, the deeper the Chaos Sea gets, the more dangerous it becomes. With the strength of the Three or Four Tribulations Ancient Immortal, he can only wander in the shallows of the Chaos Sea.
Because the shallow layer of the Chaos Sea is relatively close to the Three Thousand Immortal Realm, if you are really in danger, you can escape within five thousand years by burning your essence and blood.
Generally speaking, in the shallow layer of the Chaos Sea, it is difficult to catch the Chaos Beast King who is not good at speed for five or six kalpas before the essence and blood of the three kalpa ancient immortals are burned out.
Therefore, most of the ancient immortals of the Three and Four Tribulations are wandering within this range.
There are many opportunities within this distance, but it has been explored by a large number of ancient immortals for a long time, so compared to high-level ancient immortals, it is not that surprising.
As for the outer layer of chaos that is beyond ten thousand paths and within one hundred thousand paths, there are many opportunities.
This overseas level of chaos is already far away from the Three Thousand Immortal Realm, and ordinary ancient immortals would have a high probability of death there.
Even for ancient immortals from four tribulations, the probability of survival once they step into it is no more than 50%. Generally, only ancient immortals from five or six tribulations can gain a foothold in it, but there is also a considerable danger of falling.
There are many amazing opportunities here. There are Chaos Beast Kings of more than five or six calamities, but there are no Chaos Lairs of Da Luo level, so the overall risk is still controllable.
Beyond the One Hundred Thousand Roads lies the depths of the Sea of Chaos, which is already a very remote area, far beyond the coverage of the Three Thousand Immortal Realm.
It is said that the Daluo Jinxian of the Three Thousand Immortal Realm all opened their immortal realm in the depths of the Chaos Sea, which is a hundred thousand ways away from the Three Thousand Immortal Realm.
Not only does the Immortal Realm exist there, but there are also chaos lairs of the Great Luo level. Some ancient immortals of seven calamities and above will also take the risk to travel here.
Unfortunately, this place is too dangerous. Even the Immortal Realm may be broken. Ancient Immortals over five or six calamities can set foot in it. The risk is far greater than within the Hundred Thousand Paths, but there will also be more opportunities.
In fact, with the strength of the Five or Six Tribulations Ancient Immortal, coupled with some external elixir treasures that reserve mana, he has been able to travel in the Sea of Chaos for millions of years without returning to replenish his mana.
They are already qualified to go to the depths of the Chaos Sea, but although the opportunities in the depths of the Chaos Sea will be greater, the deeper you go, the more dangerous it will be.
"Within these ten thousand roads, there are very few top-quality chaos lairs. It seems that we will have to go to the overseas levels of chaos in the future."
Thinking of the situation in this sea of chaos, Chen Nianzhi couldn't help but frown slightly.
He looked at Tiannu and Tianya Ancestor, and couldn't help but ask: "How is your mana consumption now?"
"I can hold on for now."
Ancestor Tianya spoke, and then mused: "But the mana consumption is not small. If we go to the overseas level of chaos, I may not be able to support it."
Chen Nianzhi nodded, pondered for a moment and then said: "Then we won't go this time. Next time we will adjust the mana and prepare some magical objects, and then go to the overseas level of Chaos to explore."
"That's fine."
The goddess smiled slightly and breathed a sigh of relief.
She was really afraid that Chen Nian would go his own way and try his luck in the overseas realm of chaos.
Closer to home, in the following years, the three of them continued to wander in the shallow depths of the Chaos Sea, constantly killing groups of Chaos Beasts and the Chaos Beast King. Occasionally, they captured some Chaos Lairs and obtained some Chaos Rare Treasures and Innate Qi.
It's a pity that the best chaos lairs are really rare here, and they have been searching for tens of thousands of years but still haven't found them.
This continued until tens of thousands of years later, seeing that the tide of chaos was about to erupt again, Chen Nianzhi finally took a deep breath and said: "The time is almost up, we should go back."
The goddess also nodded and said calmly: "Yes, the tide of chaos is coming, let's go back and rest first."
The three of them did not stay any longer, and immediately crossed the Chaos Sea to reach the Three Thousand Immortal Realm, and returned to the Ziyang Immortal Realm soon after.
After arriving at the cave, the three of them took inventory and found that this time they had killed four chaos beast kings and obtained three innate ancient treasures, more than two hundred ancient chaos beast corpses, and more than a hundred innate powers.
gas.
The total value of these rare treasures is about five hundred innate Qi.
Seeing so many rare treasures, the ancestor of Tianya couldn't help but said with joy: "There are more than five hundred innate Qi. Although it is not as good as the previous harvests, it can be regarded as a good harvest."
Chen Nianzhi also smiled slightly. In fact, he had already inquired about it. Most of the ancient immortals of the Three and Four Tribulations who wandered in the shallow depths of the Chaos Sea could only obtain a dozen innate Qi at a time.
If you go there five times every million years, you won't get more than about a hundred innate Qi, and you have to risk your life.
This is because most ancient immortals are not strong enough to kill the Chaos Beast King and can only kill some ancient chaos beasts.
Even some Four Tribulation Ancient Immortals have the ability to kill low-level Chaos Beast King, but they can rarely keep the Chaos Beast King alive.
Because the life-saving ability of the Chaos Beast King may not be weaker than that of the Ancient Immortal, and his combat power is more powerful in chaos, so even the Four Tribulations Ancient Immortal may not be able to kill a Chaos Beast King for millions of years.
In this case, what you get is naturally not as much as three people.
Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi couldn't help but said: "Two ancient immortals of four tribulations, plus one ancient immortal of four tribulations who can exert their full combat power."
"With our strength, we are actually qualified to go to the outer reaches of the Sea of Chaos. Staying in the shallows of the Sea of Chaos is like bullying the small ones."
"I think next time, we might be able to take a look outside the Sea of Chaos."
When the two of them heard this, their expressions were slightly solemn.
The goddess pondered for a moment, and then said: "If you want to go to the outer sea of chaos, the most important thing is the issue of mana."
"If we want to go there, we need to prepare a large number of elixirs and some treasures that store Yuan."
Chen Nianzhi nodded, and then said: "In my opinion, it is better to refine some external elixirs to reserve mana."
"That's a good idea."
Ancestor Tianya nodded, and then asked: "What rare treasure should be used to refine the outer elixir? Is the inner elixir of the Chaos Beast King feasible?"
Chen Nianzhi already had an idea, so he shook his head and said: "The Chaos Beast King is not good at mana, and the inner elixir is not suitable for refining the outer elixir that stores mana."
"However, the senbei beads from the senbei clan are good treasures for refining the elixir."
When the two heard this, their eyes lit up, and the goddess couldn't help but praise: "That's true."
Having made up their minds, the three of them didn't stay long. They immediately came to the Senbei shop, found Qu Caiyan and informed them of their intention.
Na Qu Caiyan was slightly startled when she heard this, and immediately said with a smile: "There are not many natal shell beads left, but there are quite a few celestial shell pearls. Please wait a moment."
Naqu Nishang said, and left in a hurry, and soon brought back a batch of senbei beads.
There are thirty-five senbei beads in total, all of which were bred by the ancient immortals of the senbei tribe, but only two of them are natal shell beads.
Chen Nianzhi understood that the celestial pearls of the Senbei tribe were comparable to the finest innate treasures, but only one could be produced in a lifetime, so they were extremely rare treasures.
As for ordinary shell beads, although they are also bred by the fairy shell clan in the ancient fairyland, those shell beads can continue to be bred as long as there is time, and the effect will be much worse.
Of the thirty-five in front of me, the value of two natal shell beads is even more than the sum of the other seven.
Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi sent a message to the two of them: "Two natal shell beads can be used to refine innate ancient treasures that are specially designed to store Yuan."
"Although the rest can be used to refine the Yuan-Storing Treasure, it can only be used to refine the one-time Yuan-Storing Ancient Treasure. If you use one, you will lose one."
Hearing what he said, the ancestor of Tianya nodded and said: "When traveling in the Sea of Chaos, mana is the most important thing, so I'd better buy it all."
