53: Wood locust beads!

Wei Zhou performed the Water Movement Art, and his entire being resembled a spiritual fish, swiftly swimming towards the bottom of the lake!

Not long after, Wei Zhou had already swum to the spot at the bottom of the lake that was flickering with a faint white light!

He reached out, wanting to grasp the faint white light in his hand!

Unexpectedly, the faint white light abruptly transformed into a streak of light, rapidly darting away into the distance!

Wei Zhou's outstretched hand froze in mid-air, then he unnaturally retracted it!

He looked towards the faint white light!

The faint white light was still rapidly moving away into the distance, then suddenly stopped!

Wei Zhou fully activated the Mixed Origin Breath Concealment Art, completely concealing his own aura!

When swimming in the water, he didn't even make a single sound!

He swam straight towards the faint white light!

One breath... Two breaths... Three breaths... Four breaths...!

After five breaths, Wei Zhou stopped not far from the faint white light!

He looked from afar, then advanced a few more zhang, realizing that the faint white light hadn't moved again!

Only then did he cautiously swim towards the faint white light!

Upon reaching the faint white light, Wei Zhou didn't hesitate in the slightest!

He shot out both palms with lightning speed, firmly grasping the faint white light in his hands!

At first, the faint white light kept trembling in his palm, seemingly struggling!

After a few breaths, the faint white light gradually stilled in Wei Zhou's hand, and the faint white light on its surface slowly dissipated!

He opened his palms and was surprised to find an ancient sandalwood jade box lying quietly within them!

Its surface was carved with different scenes such as Dragon and Phoenix bringing auspiciousness, Two Dragons playing with a pearl, and Hidden Dragon emerging from the sea!

Wei Zhou slowly opened the ancient sandalwood jade box, revealing a smooth, round pearl inside!

He only glanced at it before quickly closing the ancient sandalwood jade box and placing it in his Storage Pouch!

He swiftly swam towards the shore!

A few breaths later, Wei Zhou had already reached the shore!

He quickly swam out of the water, took a few breaths of air, and slowly climbed onto the bank.

Upon reaching the shore, Wei Zhou let out a long breath, picked up his clothes from the grass, and put them on!

He hastily pulled out the ancient sandalwood jade box from his Storage Pouch!

He quickly opened it, revealing the incredibly smooth jade pearl inside, which emitted a silvery-white fluctuation!

Wei Zhou held it in his palm and could feel a faint Spiritual Qi fluctuation emanating from it!

It was continuously flowing into his body through his palm, entering his Dantian through his Meridians!

He quickly placed the ancient sandalwood jade box on the ground, put the pearl back inside, but did not close the lid of the ancient sandalwood jade box!

He pulled out the Myriad Treasure Record from his Storage Pouch!

He turned it page by page.......!

Finally, he turned to one of the pages, and the joy on Wei Zhou's face was evident!

He sprawled ungracefully on the grass, holding the Myriad Treasure Record in one hand and the pearl he obtained from the bottom of the lake in the other!

He looked at one, then the other, seemingly comparing the two!

Suddenly, an expression of ecstatic surprise appeared on Wei Zhou's face!

This was because he had found the name, effects, and grade of this pearl in the Myriad Treasure Record!

It was introduced as follows:

Name: [Wood Locust Pearl]

Grade: [Profound Grade Middle Stage]

Basic Appearance: [The entire pearl is incredibly smooth, flawless, and emits a silvery-white fluctuation! The overall color is light silver!]

Effect: [Wearing it can increase the user's Spiritual Qi to Dharma Power conversion efficiency by one level! If a Soul Transformation Stage powerhouse wears it for a long time, there is an 80% chance that a fourth-grade High Grade Spiritual Vein will spontaneously form within it!]

[Note: This Spiritual Vein is a one-time consumable Spiritual Vein! It can help Golden Core Stage Cultivators Break through to Nascent Soul! After the Breakthrough, the Spiritual Vein will be gone! However, after long-term wear, there is still a possibility of a new Spiritual Vein forming again!]

Wei Zhou was greatly astonished when he saw this: a fourth-grade High Grade Spiritual Vein! Although it was only a one-time consumption!

But it could support a Golden Core Stage Cultivator to Break through to the Nascent Soul Realm!

For example, when he underwent Foundation Establishment, the place where he Broke through had a third-grade Low Grade Spiritual Vein!

It was also thanks to this third-grade Low Grade Spiritual Vein that he was able to forge a nine-story Dao Foundation!

If it had only been a second-grade High Grade Spiritual Vein at that time, he would only have been able to forge a seven or eight-story Dao Foundation!

And if he wore the "Wood Locust Pearl" for a long time, it could also increase the user's Spiritual Qi to Dharma Power conversion efficiency by one level, an effect that could be called Heaven-Defying!

For example, if a person Cultivated without eating or drinking, it would take ten years to Break through to the next Realm!

With this treasure, it would only take 9 years, not counting the Opportunities that could be obtained during that time!

With various Opportunities or luck, it was not impossible to Break through to the next Realm within four or five years!

Immediately, Wei Zhou stopped thinking further!

He bit his finger, squeezing out a drop of his vital essence blood!

After squeezing out his vital essence blood, his face visibly turned pale!

Immediately after, he flicked his finger, sending it into the "Wood Locust Pearl"!

As soon as the vital essence blood touched the "Wood Locust Pearl," it was directly absorbed by the "Wood Locust Pearl"!

Wei Zhou also felt that he had gained some indescribable connection with the "Wood Locust Pearl" in his hand!

It was as if, if he wished it, the "Wood Locust Pearl" in his hand could fly to a certain place!

Moreover, this "Wood Locust Pearl" also contained a Legacy Cultivation Technique!

Wei Zhou immediately immersed his mind into the "Wood Locust Pearl" to examine the Legacy Cultivation Technique contained within it!

This Legacy Cultivation Technique was called the Azure Sea Water Cloud Skill!

It was a Cultivation Technique that could directly lead to the Body Integration Dao!

However, there was also a prerequisite for Cultivating this Cultivation Technique:

That is, to practice this Cultivation Technique, one must first castrate oneself!

Upon reading this, Wei Zhou couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine!

However, it later stated that if one did not castrate oneself, one must possess dual Spiritual Roots of both water and wood attributes!

Subsequently, Wei Zhou patted his chest again, let out a long breath, and said.

"You scared the hell out of me! I thought I really needed to castrate myself to Cultivate this Cultivation Technique!"

If he were asked to castrate himself, it wouldn't be impossible, as after Cultivating to a certain Realm, the Physical Body could be reshaped!

However, in the end, it was just a false alarm; only those with water and wood dual-attribute Spiritual Roots could Cultivate it!

Coincidentally, Wei Zhou happened to have water and wood dual Spiritual Roots! In fact, he previously had water, fire, and wood three Spiritual Roots!

However, due to an improvement in his Spiritual Root, he transformed from having water, fire, and wood three Spiritual Roots to having water and wood dual-attribute Spiritual Roots!

Immediately after, Wei Zhou, whose Divine Sense and mind were completely immersed in the "Wood Locust Pearl"!

He observed the circulation route of the Cultivation Technique!

He then sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, absorbing the free-floating Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth according to the Cultivation Technique's circulation route, and began to Cultivate!

......

Two incense sticks later,

Wei Zhou opened his eyes, a glint of light suddenly flashing within them, and he murmured in a low voice.

"Not bad! Not bad!"

"The Dharma Power within my body has condensed quite a bit! I reckon I'll be able to Break through to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage in less than one or two years!"
