The Dao dies but I live on, the spiritual energy dries up but I remain evergreen

There is no human habitation between the volcanic communities, and today an uninvited guest came.

It was Li Changxiao who wanted to collect the ten divine essences.

Since leaving the Snow Country, he went straight here. He spent a lot of effort for the Fire Marrow. As far as he knew, the Fire Marrow had appeared in seven places. He spent a lot of time and energy to explore them one by one, but found nothing. He only got some detailed information about the Fire Marrow.

He linked these pieces of information together, and then followed the clues to visit the ruins of several large sects one after another. He went to all the possible places, and finally found this place.

He took out the existing divine essences and activated them with spiritual energy, and found that the divine essences were all glowing, which indicated that the fire essence was here.

The ten great divine essences are of the same origin. When they were gathered into seven kinds of divine essences, Li Changxiao discovered that he could use these seven kinds of divine essences to verify whether there is divine essence in a place.

Li Changxiao had been to this place more than ten years ago, and had determined long ago that the Fire Essence was indeed here, but it was difficult to obtain because the timing was not right. Therefore, he opened a porcelain shop in the Snow Country and waited for more than ten years. As for why he stayed here instead of looking for other Fire Essences, Li Changxiao naturally had his own considerations.

The Fire Marrow is different from other divine marrows. It is buried underground and will only appear when a volcano erupts. If you want to obtain it, you must control the timing accurately, otherwise you will have to wait for more than ten years. Therefore, to be on the safe side, Li Changxiao waited in the Snow Country for ten years. The invasion of the Volcano Country was not a coincidence. It was due to the influence of the Fire Marrow that such a decision was made because of the harsh environment of volcanic eruptions every ten years or so.

Of course, the fact that the Snow Lai Kingdom could never get snow was also related to the Fire Marrow. Li Changxiao had seen that the Snow Lai Kingdom's sacrifices were not mysterious, but were truly effective.

Back to the point.

Li Changxiao jumped down from the crater where magma was surging, and dived into the magma. He killed the rock beast and entered the core of the rock. There were actually fragments of cave heaven left under the volcano. Each fragment was a small world, which was extremely dangerous. If touched, the space would be torn apart in an instant, and half of the body would be cut off. Li Changxiao suffered a loss on the way to dive, but fortunately he was in a "sleepwalking" state and soon recovered to his peak.

This fragment of the cave alone can be considered a dangerous and difficult hurdle even before the spiritual energy is exhausted.

He obtained the Fire Marrow as he wished.

The seven divine marrows were all in his hands. If the ice crystal marrow had not been used, he would have possessed eight divine marrows, and he would be considered the number one person in ancient times.

Moreover, the essence in his body is not just one or two drops, but a whole jar full of it.

More than wine.

......

Sixty-four years of seeking change.

Li Changxiao obtained the ice crystal marrow again and gathered the eight divine marrows. The auras of the eight divine marrows entangled and revealed a faint light. Following the faint light, Li Changxiao found the ninth divine marrow "Lei Xuan Divine Marrow" unexpectedly smoothly.

He was surprised.

The reason why Wang Jue was able to become a god with only six divine essences was because the other four divine essences were extremely difficult to obtain.

If Li Changxiao's guess is correct, the divine marrow that Wang Jue obtained should be the three types of wood marrow, earth marrow, gold marrow, sky marrow, water marrow and ice crystal marrow.

As long as one is powerful enough and willing to pay the price, there is hope of obtaining these essences.

As for the other four kinds of divine essences: Fire Essence, Nine Nether Divine Essence, Taicang Divine Essence and Thunder Mysterious Divine Essence, they all depend on chance and luck.

Especially the last two divine essences: "Lei Xuan Divine Essence" and "Taicang Divine Essence", only the names are known, and the rest are unknown. Even whether they have appeared or whether they really exist is still uncertain.

The difficulty of obtaining "Fire Marrow" and "Nine Nether Marrow" is slightly better than the above two kinds of marrow, but before the spiritual energy is exhausted, it can only be said that it is extremely difficult to successfully obtain them.

With the nine divine essences in his body and their auras entangled, he emitted a faint light again, pointing to the final divine essence: the Taicang divine essence.

The secret realm where Taicang's essence lies has persisted until now and has never merged with reality.

If it weren't for the aura of the nine divine essences, Li Changxiao would not be able to obtain any information even if he searched for the end of time.

Li Changxiao successfully entered the secret realm.

The space is vast.

It is a secret place that has never been set foot on or discovered by anyone.

Li Changxiao could feel that this place was very clean and there was no obsession left.

He has the ability to control dreams. Wherever someone has been, he can capture the remaining obsession.

But not here.

Just observing.

Suddenly, a transparent oval sphere, inspired by the aura of the divine essence, flew towards him.

He reached out and took it.

The last essence: Taicang essence, obtained.

Feel the warm touch in your hands.

Li Changxiao slowly closed his eyes, calculating year after year, this year... should be the 70th anniversary of the Reform.

The Ten Thousand Immortals Summit has been held for the eighth time.

Over the past few decades, in order to obtain the essence, he has traveled to the harshest places, where there are few people and little communication.

I have no idea what the world is like today, how the current reforms are going, or what the situation is like.

I have a lot of emotions in my heart.

It's time to break through.

However, Li Changxiao put the essence of Taicang into the dream space.

Turned around and left this secret place.

Didn't break through immediately.

he......

There's something else.

I have to go back to Lingtian Dynasty.

……

Seventy-two years of seeking change.

Li Changxiao was traveling with a caravan named "Pabra". The caravan was full of people from foreign lands who often went to Lingtianzhou to do trade. They brought exotic flowers and herbs, scented powder, mirrors, and boots made of animal skins... They sailed all the way from west to east and stopped at the entrance port of Lingtianzhou.

After that, they moved inland, trading along the way, either by bartering or purchasing with silver.

The leader of the caravan was a very strong man with a thick beard and deep eye sockets, showing a bit of the cunning of merchants. His name was Pabra, and he saw at a glance that Li Changxiao was a wealthy man. During the voyage, he bargained with him for business experience.

Of course, he was also a person who loved to complain. During the voyage, Li Changxiao often heard him complaining about everything. His most common catchphrase was: "When will that damn war end?"

The war in Lingtianzhou continues to this day, and there is still no end in sight.

From Pabra, Li Changxiao learned that the population of Lingtianzhou had decreased by nearly 30%.

Last year, Pabra’s good brother was killed by deserters in Lingtian Continent.

The voyage was very long, and we often encountered strong winds and waves on the way. Once, a hurricane at sea blew away hundreds of herrings. From then on, we had fish for every meal, and we ate so much fish that we vomited.

Li Changxiao was in high spirits for the exchange. After all, before this, in order to search for the ten divine essences, he sometimes went into deep mountains and old forests and harsh places, often for months or even years without seeing any human figures, let alone talking. Most of the time, he couldn't even drink alcohol.

However, the road to seeking the truth is never smooth sailing, and he never complained. Although the voyage was long and often stormy, it was also a pleasure for the drunkard in white.
