Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

Chapter 172 Mountain Great Handprint

Zhao Yu's eyes brightened, "The Mountain Sutra's Divinity Transformation section can actually be exchanged! Truly worthy of Yunluo Immortal City!! However, the exchange requires ten million Immortal City contribution points! That's rather difficult!"

Zhao Yu continued to browse through the exchange catalog, seeing the various Extraordinary Skills and Strange Methods, Divine Power Secret Arts that Yunluo Immortal City possessed.

The Mountain Sutra Zhao Yu had obtained did not record how to practice the accompanying Divine Skills, but within Yunluo Immortal City, there were several Divine Skills that complemented the Mountain Sutra.

"Mountain Great Handprint! This Divine Skill activates the Mana within one's body to condense an indestructible mountainous hand that attacks the enemy; the higher the Cultivation Level of the Mountain Sutra, the greater the power of this Divine Skill."

"The Earth Magnetism Mystical Light of the magical treasure Mountain Seal mainly protects and restrains, while the Mountain Great Handprint is primarily used for offense."

"The Mountain Sutra and its accompanying Divine Skills are relatively strong in defense, but both offense and mobility are slightly lacking."

"Exchanging for the Mountain Great Handprint requires one million Immortal City contribution points."

"Ten Spirit Stones can be exchanged for one Immortal City contribution point, but one Immortal City contribution point can only be exchanged for one Spirit Stone. It seems that Yunluo Immortal City prefers cultivators within the city to earn Immortal City contribution points."

"Refining a batch of twelve Foundation Establishment Pills can earn one hundred and thirty thousand Sect contribution points. This means that by refining ten batches of Foundation Establishment Pills, I could exchange for the Mountain Great Handprint. With one hundred batches, I could exchange for the Mountain Sutra's Divinity Transformation section."

"However, the tasks for refining pills are also limited; if one hundred batches of Foundation Establishment Pills were to be produced, the market price for Foundation Establishment Pills in Yunluo Immortal City would probably collapse."

Zhao Yu directly exchanged for the practice method of the Mountain Great Handprint, selected a large number of Sect tasks for Alchemy, and then, led by Yan Wuheng, came before a thousand-foot-tall Fourth-Order Superior Spiritual Peak.

Yan Wuheng said, "This Fourth-Order Superior Spiritual Peak is one of the greatest benefits for us Silver-ranked Elders joining the Immortal City! Not only are we exempt from the exorbitant rent for the cave mansion, but we can also open several Spiritual Medicine gardens on top of this Spiritual Peak to cultivate some top-tier Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures!"

Zhao Yu nodded slightly, a trace of satisfaction flashing in his eyes. The rare Spiritual Medicines he possessed, like the thousand-year-old Jade Dragon Ginseng and the Soul-Nurturing Wood, required cultivation only possible on Fourth-Order Spiritual Land; those medicines simply couldn't grow on Third-Order Spiritual Land.

"On this peak, you can pick two Inner Sect Disciples, ten Outer Sect Disciples, and one hundred servant Disciples from the Immortal City to serve you. Of course, you can also choose servants from the Northern Desolation, but those people who are not Disciples of the Immortal City must be registered in the city, and many places will be difficult for them to access."

Yan Youli, however, was a determined woman who practiced bitterly, unwilling to become the concubine of other Golden Core cultivators, wanting only to rely on her own efforts to advance to Golden Core.

Zhao Yu directly left Yunluo Immortal City and returned to the Northern Desolation, bringing Li Xianjiao, Wu Zixin, and Tuoba Xue to Yunluo Immortal City.

The Northern Desolation was Zhao Yu's stronghold and his retreat, so Shangguan Lingxiu, Wei Xinlan, and Nangong Shiyao stayed there to help him guard his base. However, they had also agreed that they would rotate every five years.

At this time, the Northern Desolation was dominated by Dan Ling Sect, occupying a large amount of Spiritual Land and many Spirit Stone Veins, with a yearly profit of a million Spirit Stones, as well as the ability to cultivate a large number of Spiritual Medicines. Naturally, Zhao Yu could not abandon this stronghold.

After Zhao Yu brought the three women back, a small ripple arose among the Golden Core circle in Yunluo Immortal City. Li Xianjiao's beauty and temperament were ranked within the top three in Yunluo Immortal City. Wu Zixin and Tuoba Xue were also exceptionally beautiful and moreover, they were Golden Core female cultivators.

Zhao Yu alone possessing three extremely beautiful Golden Core female cultivators naturally made many Golden Core cultivators in Yunluo Immortal City jealous, but with his Golden Elixir Seventh Layer cultivation, naturally, no one dared to provoke him. However, a reputation for philandering quietly spread throughout Yunluo Immortal City.

Zhao Yu stayed inside his cave mansion, open his furnace for the Refinement of Nightshade Tri-Spirit Pill and Youlan True Mystery Pill, two types of Spirit Pills that could enhance the mana of those in the late Golden Core stage.

Inside Yunluo Immortal City, there were also sect missions for the Refinement of these two types of Spirit Pills. The Immortal City would provide materials for Alchemists to refine these two kinds of pills, and the materials for one furnace of Spirit Pills plus one hundred thousand Immortal City contributions would be exchanged for two authentic Spirit Pills.

In the entire Yunluo Immortal City, including Zhao Yu, there were only three Alchemists who could refine the Nightshade Tri-Spirit Pill and Youlan True Mystery Pill.

However, those two Alchemists preferred to refine the extremely precious Golden Core Pill, and the tasks of refining Golden Core Pill were basically undertaken by those two Alchemists nurtured by the Immortal City, leaving Zhao Yu to take on other Alchemy tasks.

Three years later, in the open space beside Zhao Yu's cave mansion.

"Mountain Great Handprint!"

Zhao Yu urged his mana, and countless earthen-yellow streams of energy emerged from his body, forming a hundred-zhang-long rock hand that moved flexibly in all directions.

A slight smile appeared at the corner of Zhao Yu's mouth, "This Divine Skill is achieved! And its proficiency has been cultivated to Master level by me! At last, I have an attack Divine Skill that synergizes with my mana!"
