Chapter 54: Rank 5 Spirit Detection Technique!

"So, this secret realm was actually left by Chu Xuan's ancestors specifically for their descendants?" An Qiuyue asked thoughtfully.

"That's the most likely possibility."

"This is the last explanation I can think of right now."

After a pause, Elder Du spoke again: "There's just one thing that's not quite right. In this kind of bloodline secret realm, there shouldn't be any humans or demonic beasts."

"unless"

"It took too long, and the secret realm teleportation failed, sending you to an area similar to where the guardians live."

An Qiuyue nodded and said, "That's true. A large secret realm definitely needs to be managed. If the guiding formation goes wrong, or some unknown event occurs, the teleportation point might have a problem."

The two, one a Nascent Soul cultivator and the other a Golden Core cultivator, quickly devised an explanation for Chu Xuan in just a few words.

Bloodline Secret Realm, that makes a lot of sense. It resolves all the problems. Very good, I will now be a disciple of the Immortal Abode who possesses a Bloodline Secret Realm!

"Junior Brother Chu, I didn't expect your ancestor to be such a great figure. To be able to create such a secret realm that can still be undetected by Nascent Soul Realm cultivators after countless years, your ancestor must have been a True Immortal."

Chu Xuan waved his hand and said, "I was just lucky. Since the birth of our human race, we have gone through four major periods: the Primordial Era, the Ancient Era, the Medieval Era, and the Early Modern Era, spanning countless eras. In such a long period of time, which ancestor who has survived to this day wasn't a figure of immortal level?"

"That's different. If we look at the source, all human races in the world come from the same origin. You can't calculate it that way."

"The bloodline secret realms that have survived to this day either have ancestors who were all-powerful beings or were left behind by immortals from recent eras. Either way, their lineage is very illustrious."

Chu Xuan said, "Senior Sister An, those who can enter the Immortal Mansion must have high spiritual root levels. Most of the disciples of the Immortal Mansion have Heavenly Spiritual Roots. My aptitude is just barely up to standard."

"Such natural beauty suggests an extraordinary bloodline!"

Elder Du

"Xiao Xuan, you were unable to bring the immortal artifact into the secret realm before, it must have been rejected by the secret realm."

"Reporting back to the elder, that should be the case. However, the Awakening Jade I refined earlier can be brought in without any issues."

Elder Du was not surprised. "It's normal for the Bloodline Secret Realm to have such restrictions. I guess only refined treasures can be brought in."

"It should be." Chu Xuan nodded in agreement. In this way, everything he brought with him would be refined by himself, which would ensure its safety.

"In that case, immortal artifacts are not suitable for you. Refining immortal artifacts is too much trouble for someone below the Golden Core stage. You should go back first, and I will find you a few combination spiritual treasures. Working together will be enough to ensure your safety!"

There are also combination-type spirit treasures. Indeed, it's always good to have a powerful backer; their resources are terrifyingly abundant.

"Thank you, Elder Du."

"Did you find anything in the secret realm?"

"Reporting back to the elder, this disciple has settled in the local market and purchased a medicinal herb."

As he spoke, Chu Xuan took out the ten-year-old Xuan Shen that he had prepared beforehand, opened the wooden box, and handed the Xuan Shen over.

Elder Du took it, and a warm blue light appeared in his hand. "Not bad, it's quite good among first-grade spiritual herbs. It has a strong medicinal effect, and it's clear that the place where it grew is rich in spiritual energy."

"As for its effects, it is somewhat similar to the second-tier spiritual medicine, Purple Jade Ginseng, but there are some subtle differences. It should be a spiritual medicine unique to the secret realm, and its medicinal effects are also much weaker."

"Go give it to Old Qian. He should be able to get a good price for it. Elixir is a rare find in the Federation."

"it is good."

Chu Xuan took the spiritual medicine from Elder Du's hand without saying anything about giving it to Elder Du. As a Nascent Soul Realm elder, he definitely didn't lack such things. The only thing that Elder Du would value about him was the secret realm behind him!

"Xiao Xuan, I am your guiding elder, but I need to guard the forbidden area and am unable to be in two places at once. So let Xiao Yue be your guide. If you have any questions, just ask her. If Xiao Yue doesn't understand, then come to me."

"Thank you, Elder!"

Chu Xuan was overjoyed. Although Senior Sister An was also a disciple of the Immortal Mansion, she was ultimately a Golden Core cultivator. Having a Golden Core cultivator to answer his questions throughout the process would definitely make his cultivation path much easier.

"Elder Du, rest assured, I will take care of Junior Brother Chu. But if he has any questions, I will answer them to the best of my knowledge!"

"Okay, let's go back!"

"yes!"

·······

At the Immortal Abode's residence, in the External Affairs Hall, An Qiuyue and Chu Xuan went straight to the window where Elder Qian was.

"Wow, judging by this, you've got something good." Old Qian lay on his recliner, his eyes lighting up slightly, and said with a smile.

"Mr. Qian, you have a sharp eye."

"Hurry up and bring it out, let Old Qian take a look." Old Qian got up and walked to the counter.

Chu Xuan took out a wooden box containing Scrophularia from his storage bag and pushed it in front of the counter. "Elder Qian, take a look!"

Old Qian's eyes lit up immediately. "It's a miraculous medicine! What a treasure!"

Taking the wooden box, Elder Qian habitually examined it and nodded, saying, "The wooden box is not bad, it contains a lot of spiritual energy, but the formation is too rubbish. Resetting a spirit-sealing formation would be good enough to store third-tier spiritual herbs."

A thoughtful look appeared in Chu Xuan's eyes. It seemed that the Federation's resource shortage was more serious than he had imagined. Although this wooden box was nice, in the Xuanming Sect, one would be given away as a gift when purchasing a first-grade or higher spiritual herb.

This wooden box probably never imagined that one day it would be used to store third-tier spiritual herbs.

It seems that elixirs, as well as other unrefined spiritual items, are the most popular items in the Federation.

After casually commenting for a couple of minutes, he opened the wooden box and saw the Scrophularia inside. Old Qian smiled and said, "Not bad, it's a new variety."

As he spoke, Old Qian moved his hand slightly, forming a hand seal. A layer of mysterious light flowed and transformed into a white magic seal on Old Qian's palm, with streams of spiritual light flowing over it, making it appear extremely profound.

"This is the Spirit Appraisal Technique, the signature skill of treasure appraisers among all the arts of cultivation," An Qiuyue explained from the side.

"Elder Qian's spirit appraisal technique is the strongest in our entire Dragon Locking Hall. A fifth-tier spirit appraisal technique, it's enough to appraise any fifth-tier spirit item!"

Even though Chu Xuan knew that Elder Qian was a dignified Nascent Soul Realm elder, he was still shocked. Could this person be human? Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, fifth-order techniques—in the Immortal Mansion, everyone was more extraordinary than the last; there wasn't a single ordinary one among them.

Especially these elders, each one of them is ridiculously powerful.

"This is just a first-tier spiritual herb. Using a fifth-tier spiritual appraisal technique to appraise it is a bit too... extravagant," Chu Xuan said cautiously.

"What's so special about this? This is something from a secret realm. There are countless good things in secret realms. My fifth-level spirit appraisal skill is still far from enough."

"Moreover, this is a brand-new elixir that has never appeared before. Take a close look at it; it's sure to be genuine!"
