Chapter 211: The Most-Treasured Item Is a Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone

Qin Chuan released his divine consciousness, and the image of the treasure instantly appeared in his mind.

It was a crystal clear jade the size of an egg.

When he saw the piece of jade, Qin Chuan was stunned.

That was because… this was no ordinary jade stone, but a spirit stone.

More importantly, this was not an ordinary spirit stone but a supreme-grade spirit stone.

My gosh… a supreme-grade spirit stone.

Qin Chuan couldn’t help but want it.

Supreme-grade spirit stones cost 10,000 points in the Merchant Shop. The price was ridiculously high.

But there was a ready-made one here.

Qin Chuan had an idea.

Since it’s there, it must be useless to the mortals. It should be fine to take it away!

At this thought, Qin Chuan walked to the display booth where the supreme-grade spirit stone was stored.

There was also a stone tablet here that provided information about the supreme-grade spirit stone.

According to the tablet, this supreme-grade spirit stone also came from a volcanic eruption. It was first discovered more than 2000 years ago.

When it appeared, it caused a great sensation.

That was because the plants around the supreme-grade spirit stones were growing crazily.

The trees reached hundreds of meters tall, and the plants were also about ten meters tall.

Some animals also experienced growth spurts when they came into contact with supreme-grade spirit stones.

A rat became the size of a pig.

Such a phenomenon was unheard of.

Since ancient times, the people of the Yun Country had always been devout believers in the gods and regarded this phenomenon as a divine miracle. They believed that the supreme-grade spirit stone was a divine item given to the mortal world by the gods.

Not long after, the appearance of the divine object reached the ears of the royal family at that time.

The royal family immediately sent someone to bring this supreme-grade spirit stone back to the palace.

It was an old general.

He escorted the spirit stone throughout the journey.

However, something magical happened.

The old general realized that he had become younger.

His grizzled hair became thick and black, and the wrinkles on his face disappeared.

He had returned to his prime, and he was much stronger than before.

The old general was extremely excited, and he wanted the supreme-grade spirit stone for himself.

Because of this, a war broke out over this supreme-grade spirit stone.

The royal family won with a numerical advantage, but they also suffered heavy losses.

On the old general’s side, anyone who touched that supreme-grade spirit stone would have their strength greatly increased and become extremely brave.

After the royal family won, they naturally obtained the supreme-grade spirit stone.

At that time, the emperor was still considered a wise ruler and wasn’t fooled by the power of the spirit stone.

He realized that this wasn’t a divine object bestowed by the gods but instead a disaster.

If supreme-grade spirit stones were allowed to exist, the world would not be peaceful.

Therefore, he called his trusted subordinate over and destroyed the supreme-grade spirit stone.

However, no matter what he did, he could not destroy this stone.

After reading that, Qin Chuan laughed.

This is a supreme-grade spirit stone, not an ordinary object. So how can the average person destroy it?

He continued reading.

When the emperor saw that he could not destroy it, he secretly came to Yun Mountain and threw the supreme-grade spirit stone back into the volcano.

Then, the emperor finally felt relieved.

Without this supreme-grade spirit stone, the world gradually regained its peace. But, as time passed, people gradually forgot about it.

However, just as the world entered a new era, the Yun Mountain erupted again, and stone was spat out once more in the new era of technology.

After the supreme-grade spirit stone reappeared, it was taken to be studied.

Scientists said that this stone contained mysterious energy that could change the cell structure of living beings: accelerating the growth of cells, causing plants to grow crazily; strengthening cells, creating big and strong animals; and restructuring cells, reverting the old general to his youth.

However, there were also hidden dangers. The cell changes were irreversible.

Once one began absorbing the spiritual energy of the supreme-grade spirit stones, there would be no end.

Once stopped, the body would not keep up with the splitting of the cells and would soon die.

After completing the relevant research, the royal family arranged for this supreme-grade spirit stone to be placed in this museum as its most-treasured item.

The people living near the Yun Mountain had heard stories about supreme-grade spirit stones from their ancestors. Some of them were legends.

The people of the Yun Country believed in gods, so they treated this supreme-grade spirit stone as a sacred object to worship.

Qin Chuan stared at the supreme-grade spirit stone in the display booth and thought about the remnants of the immortal cultivation in the museum. He could roughly guess that the Tall Heavens Sect should be inside the Yun Mountain.

Qin Chuan felt that he could first head to the inside of Yun Mountain to search for that cultivation sect before returning to retrieve the supreme-grade spirit stone.

In any case, the supreme-grade spirit stone had been here all along, and anti-theft measures were protecting it.

It won’t dissapear just because just because I came here!

Qin Chuan didn’t think he was that unlucky.

Just like that, Qin Chuan left the museum and headed towards Yun Mountain.

As the largest and tallest volcano in the world, the scenery at Yun Mountain was extremely beautiful and spectacular.

Every year, a large number of climbers would come to conquer the volcano.

But now, there was no one on the snow-covered mountain. Only some small animals occasionally came out to play.

Not long after, Qin Chuan arrived at the peak of the mountain.

Steam erupted from the mouth of the huge volcano all year round. If one looked down carefully, one could see a fiery glow like the setting sun.

Qin Chuan stood at the mouth of the volcano, feeling the blazing heat. He thought of something.

As far as he knew, there were some must-have requirements regarding the location of a cultivation sect.

Two of them were more important.

First, there had to be a spiritual meridian.

Second, there had to be Earth Fire.

Spiritual meridians were the source of spirit stones and spiritual energy and were vitally interrelated with cultivating cultivators.

Cultivators used Earth Fire to refine pills and forge weapons.

Earth fire referred to lava.

For immortal cultivators, magical artifacts and spirit pills were particularly important.

Every sect had to have its weapon forging and alchemy departments.

If they had to go to other places to purchase these items, it would be detrimental to the sect’s development.

Although one could use his own True Fire to refine pills and forge weapons, True Fire could only be cultivated after reaching the Golden Core Realm.

Furthermore, an individual’s True Fire was limited and couldn’t refine pills or forge weapons in large quantities.

Therefore, Earth Fire was necessary.

Qin Chuan’s sect had Earth Fire.

“Does it mean that immortal cultivators once existed near volcanoes?”

At this thought, Qin Chuan felt that he could go and do a search.

And now, he would start from Yun Mountain.

The next moment…

Qin Chuan spread out his divine consciousness, and boiling lava instantly appeared in his mind.

However, he didn’t find any traces of a cultivation sect. Since there were no traces of it within the range of his divine consciousness, it meant that the ruins of the sect were further down.

Currently, Qin Chuan’s divine consciousness could extend as far as 6000 meters, but Yun Mountain was 8000 meters above sea level.

Besides, the lava came from the mantle layer.

The mantle layer was at least 50 kilometers beneath the surface!

Therefore, if he wanted to find traces of that cultivation sect, he had to dig deep into the depths of the volcano.

Qin Chuan did not hesitate. Instead, he activated the Fire-Concealing Technique and flew downwards.

Then, he plunged into the boiling lava.
