The next moment after leaving the caravan.

Jiang Yuan whispered in his heart.

[Yes!]

[Successfully consumed 81 strands of Luck Power!]

Then, he suddenly saw a prompt appearing in his eyes.

[Twenty miles southeast from here, there’s a towering ancient tree, beneath which lies a Soul-condensing Drink.]

Looking at this prompt before his eyes, Jiang Yuan couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.

As I expected!

Surely there must be heavenly treasures in such dangerous territories like the BlackWater Marsh, where human footprints are rare.

But the Soul-condensing Drink?

What is that?

Going by its name, it should be related to my soul. Could it enhance the power of my soul?

But given the amount of Luck Power required, the effect of the Soul-condensing Drink must be good.

Its quality should be superior to that of the Hundred -Year Spirit Medicine I previously obtained.

Jiang Yuan pondered this while hurrying on his way.

On the other side.

Old Ma raised his hand and said, “The Young Master has ordered us to rest here!”

“Good! We can finally rest!”

Someone cheered then quickly found a clean spot to sit down.

Some started drinking from their water bottles, and some started eating their dry food.

At this time.

Shu Xiaoxiao sat alone on the treasure-hauling cart, curling up her legs to take a short rest.

Although the trip with Jiang Yuan was tough, she was very happy.

Before they had left Lin’an County, Jiang Yuan had told her that she could wait obediently in Lin’an County for his return.

Because traveling on the road, braving wind and weather, was bound to be hard, especially for a girl like her, it would be even harder.

But when Shu Xiaoxiao heard this, she firmly shook her head.

She said, “I am not a spoilt rich girl, merely a farmer’s daughter and a close personal maid of the Young Master.”

What hardships can’t I endure!

And since I am a maid of the Young Master, how can I enjoy myself in the county while leaving my master alone?

On the other side.

A moment later.

Jiang Yuan stopped at a slightly damp ground.

There were puddles big and small everywhere, some places even appeared marshy.

The soil around was pitch black, hence the name BlackWater Marsh.

Looking at this scene before his eyes, Jiang Yuan was filled with doubts. It should be around this direction, so why can’t I see the towering ancient tree mentioned in the hint?

Logically, it shouldn’t be the case!

Then he glanced at the prompt again.

Twenty miles southeast with the enormous ancient tree.

With my speed, I couldn’t have miscalculated!

It should be around here somewhere.

And even if it’s a towering ancient tree, it should be very apparent.

But why can’t I see it?

He was instantly filled with confusion.

Jiang Yuan then climbed to a nearby taller tree to take a look around, but he couldn’t see the ancient tree mentioned in the hint.

Just as he was searching around on the ground.

Suddenly, as if crossing time and space, the scene before his eyes underwent a change.

He saw an enormous ancient tree suddenly appearing in front of him, its branches spreading to a width of about 20 meters.

This… Could this possibly be the formation documented in ancient books?

A single leaf can block the sight of Mount Tai!

Jiang Yuan’s eyes were somewhat grave as he quickly retreated.

The scene in front of his eyes suddenly changed once again.

The enormous ancient tree disappeared, replaced with a dark puddle.

Seeing that he had returned to where he was just now, Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it allows entry and exit.

It doesn’t trap people inside.

After that, Jiang Yuan once again walked forward, and the enormous ancient tree reappeared in front of him.

That’s indeed the case!

It seems to be the illusion formation mentioned in legends!

Fortunately, it’s not too complicated. Otherwise, with my knowledge, I might spend an entire lifetime unable to enter this illusion formation.

Unable to discover this fated place.

However, seeing white bones and bodies of recently dead animals that had not yet decayed around him.

He instantly understood.

Perhaps it’s not that the illusion formation can’t be more elaborate, but rather that the one who set up this formation needs the corpses of numerous animals to feed this towering ancient tree.

If the formation could stop intruders, then how would these animals gather here?

The very next moment.

Jiang Yuan condensed his martial arts comprehension, scanning the area several dozen feet ahead.

All was calm, the only sound being the rustling of the tree branches.

It seems there isn’t any major problem, Jiang Yuan thought to himself.

He then stepped into the area of towering ancient trees, his feet crunching on a myriad of white bones, the sound of the bones cracking under his weight echoing from beneath.

A moment later, he arrived at the base of one ancient tree.

At the base of the tree, in a hole, five droplets, akin to dew, were gathered.

These droplets were indeed peculiar, like droplets of water, they collided with each other but didn’t merge.

Above the droplets, there was another one that was more than halfway formed, appearing ready to fall at any moment.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan was immediately filled with joy. This peculiar substance could be the Soul-condensing Drink mentioned in the hints.

The scene before him all made it quite clear.

The myriad of white bones beneath his feet, the ultimate purpose was to generate those few Soul-condensing Drinks.

This place was most likely an artificial location.

Used to collect the Soul-condensing Drink.

Luckily, there was only an extremely ordinary illusion formation set up, if it were more complex-

Based on his current knowledge, he would have to say goodbye forever to the Soul-condensing Drink here.

Following this, Jiang Yuan snapped a branch from a nearby tree.

He then reached into the tree hole with the branch and hooked a droplet of Soul-condensing Drink with a leaf.

Throughout the process, he was on high alert.

In case of any unexpected situation, he was ready to pull back at any time.

But in the end, he found that he had been overthinking.

All was calm, and no accident happened.

As for the Soul-condensing Drink, it was now before him

Rolling on the green leaf.

Next moment-

Jiang Yuan opened his mouth and poured the droplet of Soul -condensing Drink into it.

The moment the Soul-condensing Drink entered his throatIt disappeared instantly.

A powerful chill started from his throat and rushed towards his Spiritual Platform.

Jiang Yuan shivered instantly and carefully felt the changes within his body.

In a blink of an eye, a cold sensation appeared between his brows.

It was as if his Spiritual Platform had all its dust swept away, and all thedistractions in his mind disappeared.

His whole being had become devoid of sorrow or joy.

After a full half quarter of an hour.

Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment, a hint of joy appeared on his face.

As its name suggested, it strengthens the soul and has the effects changing one’s innate constitution, essentially improving his spirits drastically.

Even his soul, he could vaguely feel that it had been strengthened.

Looking at the few remaining droplets of Soul-condensing Drink in front of him, Jiang Yuan was overjoyed.

Such heaven and earth treasures were too important for him at this stage.

It could greatly reduce his time consumption at the soul-nurturing stage.

It was worth the expenditure of luck power.

Following this, Jiang Yuan continued to take the rest of the Soul-condensing Drink from the tree hole.

He poured each droplet into his mouth one by one.

Each time he digested a droplet, Jiang Yuan felt that his soul seemed to have become more solid and his foundation slightly improved.

His spirits were also constantly improving.

When the last unformed droplet of Soul-condensing Drink was poured into his mouth by Jiang Yuan-

He suddenly shivered, it seemed like something within his body had burst out, the source of his soul had also undergone a qualitative change.

His spirits reached a peak at this moment, achieving a state of fullness.

This indicated that at present, in the eighth level of the Body Forging Realm, he had reached a peak state.

To continue improving, he would have to break through to the ninth level of the Body Forging Realm.

“I’m finally ready to break through to the ninth layer of the Body Forging Realm!”

Jiang Yuan muttered to himself, a hint of joy in his eyes.

The soul-nurturing stage, as Gongsun Zhi of the Sunset Sect said, indeed trapped him for a long time.

If it weren’t for the perfect martial arts comprehension he had condensed, and Su Xin’s harp sounds that helped him refine his spirits-

And now he had obtained this heaven and earth treasure, the Soul-condensing Drink.

This stage would have trapped him for even longer.

But everything he had received in exchange was worthwhile.

Because he knew very clearly that although they were both at the eighth level of the Body Forging Realm, the strength of their spirits was vastly different.

Ning Buqi was a good example.

Although he was at the ninth level of the Body Forging Realm, theoretically his spirits should be much stronger than his.

But in front of him, Ning Buqi, despite being at the ninth level of the Body Forging Realm, was still easily suppressed by his martial arts comprehension.

In Jiang Yuan’s understanding, this was the difference in the physical body.

A strong body naturally nurtured stronger spirits, with a higher upper limit.

Just like in his previous life, how could a sickly body have strong spirits?

People who practice martial arts, naturally have full spirits.

The physical body and spirits are essentially inseparable. A strong body can naturally nourish stronger spirits..
