"Old man, I'm going back to sleep now, go and busy yourself!"
The Nine Nether Earth Fire quickly darted into Duan Gujin's cloth bag, and then disappeared from sight.
Duan Gujin said, "Elder Wan, did you clearly see its form just now? Do you have any doubts about its identity as an Innate Spiritual Object?"
Elder Wan took a deep breath and said, "I saw it clearly, I have no doubts about its identity as an Innate Spiritual Object! It truly is an Innate Spiritual Object!"
He trusted his own judgment, after all, he was at least a Sixth-level Alchemist, and he was confident in his Divine Sense Inspection, believing he would not have seen it wrongly.
"Then who else knows you possess an Innate Spiritual Object?"
Elder Wan pondered for a while, suddenly asking.
Duan Gujin's eyebrows slightly furrowed, "Elder Wan, why do you ask this?"
Elder Wan said, "Do you think I would rob you of your Innate Spiritual Object? Such Innate Spiritual Objects are not easy to control. I've been wracking my brains just now and still can't figure out what use your Innate Spiritual Object possesses."
Duan Gujin said, "That Nine Nether Earth Fire comes from the Netherworld, its homeland is in a very distant place, and its purpose is to help a Martial Artist possess a portion of the power from the Netherworld! But for us of the Human Clan, it's very difficult to control the power of the Netherworld!"
"Oh, so that's how it is!"
Elder Wan suddenly realized.
"If it were the Devil Clan, they could refine the Nine Nether Earth Fire, allowing it to release the power of the Netherworld, and then use that power to slay their enemies! This Nine Nether Earth Fire isn't very meaningful for our Human Clan, but if it falls into the hands of the Devil Clan, it would be a significant weapon!"
"So that's how it is! Then forget about going to the crusade meeting in one month, to avoid the Nine Nether Earth Fire falling into the hands of the Devil Clan!"
Elder Wan said.
"Elder Wan, this Nine Nether Earth Fire greatly fears the Devil Clan because for them to fully unleash its potential, they will need to refine it, making it lose its Divine Wisdom, thus, it will never cooperate with the Devil Clan! This Nine Nether Earth Fire has an incredible function, it can confront a Demon Saint in that foggy area."
Duan Gujin told Elder Wan about how the Nine Nether Earth Fire had covered their retreat in the past, blocking a Demon Saint for him and Xiao Yueyue.
After listening, Elder Wan then understood that the Nine Nether Earth Fire could move freely in the foggy area.
"Good heavens, so this Innate Spiritual Object can be that miraculous!"
Elder Wan took another deep breath, having previously ventured into the foggy area, he certainly knew how terrifying that area was.
Moreover, the foggy area rapidly expanded to the surrounding areas after the last treasure hunt, engulfing regions that previously belonged to the Human Race World and Hundred Saints Mountain.
And until now, the foggy area was still continually emitting fog.
Several Major Sects from the Jiuzhou Continent had ventured deep into it to explore, but all in vain.
Some sect masters from those Major Sects speculated that this might be related to the destruction of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain.
"I think, I should take it to visit the Hundred Saints Mountain! Letting it have a look around, it's quite familiar with Hundred Saints Mountain and should know some conditions there!"
Duan Gujin had not previously expected that such an Innate Spiritual Object could exist in the Hundred Saints Mountain, and he felt it necessary to venture into Hundred Saints Mountain once, to see if he could acquire some treasures.
Hearing this, Elder Wan was speechless.
He now understood why he remained a Sixth-level Alchemist to this day, and why he had never encountered a single Innate Spiritual Object.
"The gap between people really does exist, if I had obtained an Innate Spiritual Object, I would definitely hide and protect it, never taking it around everywhere, but Duan Gujin is different, he obtained an Innate Spiritual Object and still thinks it's not enough, he even plans to join in the excitement at Hundred Saints Mountain! Previously, there was already a Demon Saint eyeing that Innate Spiritual Object, yet he still plans to head to Hundred Saints Mountain!"
Elder Wan pondered for a while and then asked, "Duan Gujin, isn't this too dangerous for you? What if a high-level expert from the Demon Saint Realm targets you?"
"I'm not afraid of high-level experts from the Demon Saint Realm targeting me! What I'm most worried about are some people from our Human Clan, they are far more terrifying than those Demon Saints! Elder Wan, will you come with me that day?"
"I'll go with you that day! Just to avoid any accidents!" Elder Wan said.
"Thank you very much, Elder Wan!"
Duan Gujin expressed his gratitude.
"What's there to thank, you are after all my disciple. Should I tell the Sect Master about you obtaining an Innate Spiritual Object?"
"Elder Wan, you can tell the Sect Master about this. I still trust the Sect Master. Elder Wan, you must tell the Sect Master that this Innate Spiritual Object is useless for cultivating in the Human Clan, but it is very important for the Devil Clan, and I plead with the Sect Master not to spread the news that I have an Innate Spiritual Object carelessly!"
Duan Gujin said.
"Alright!"
Elder Wan quickly agreed.
His heart had been unable to calm down for a long time, and only today, he realized that the biggest difference between him and those geniuses was that he did not venture out to take risks.
"Recently, with the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain being leveled, followed by the appearance of a foggy area at the junction of the Human Race World and the Devil Clan, it indicates that drastic changes have occurred in the Jiuzhou Continent! Chaotic times have arrived, and often, unexpected events will follow! Like the Innate Spiritual Object that Duan Gujin found, if not for this sudden change creating the foggy area, it probably would have become a treasure of the Devil Clan!"
After a while, Elder Wan solemnly said, "Duan Gujin, who else knows about your possession of the Innate Spiritual Object?"
"So far, only you and that female disciple from the Spirit-controlling Immortal Sect know!"
Duan Gujin responded honestly.
Previously, he had communicated with the Nine Nether Earth Fire, knowing that to control it, one must at least have the Cultivation of the Martial Saint Realm, and also possess the corresponding Treasure to completely control it.
"Then you must be very careful! Human hearts are unpredictable! I will tell the Sect Master about this matter! But you must never casually show the Nine Nether Earth Fire in front of others, even if other people know that the Innate Spiritual Object is useless to them, they can offer the Nine Nether Earth Fire to those First-class Sects, you know, those experts from the First-class Sects are numerous, some of them might know how to refine this Nine Nether Earth Fire! You must never casually show off your Nine Nether Earth Fire in the future!"
Elder Wan said with a grave face.
"Elder Wan, I understand, I will be very careful in the future!"
Duan Gujin said. The reason he was willing to show the Nine Nether Earth Fire to Elder Wan was because he trusted Elder Wan.
In his view, the Nine Nether Earth Fire was more suitable for cultivation by the Devil Clan, and as a Human Warrior, he had a long way to go to be able to control it.
He is currently low in Cultivation, making it impossible for him to control the Nine Nether Earth Fire.
If it harbored malicious intentions, then he could only end up dead.
After all, the Nine Nether Earth Fire is not a lifeless object, it has awakened Divine Wisdom.
In his heart, the Nine Nether Earth Fire was somewhat of a mixed blessing.
