Chapter 1483 - 1063: Sun Palace

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang!" Sect Leader Cang Rui of Cloud Concealment Sect extended his gratitude alongside everyone from the sect.

The other nine major sects who witnessed the divine miracles firsthand became increasingly industrious.

In the mountains, they chopped and mined, expending their Spiritual Power. Then, sitting cross-legged on the ground, they could breathe in and out, absorbing the rich Spiritual Energy to cultivate. No need to toil with mundane matters; they could focus on tranquil cultivation, aided by the Spiritual Energy from their courtyards, visibly enhancing the strength of the inner sect disciples.

Once the city restoration was complete, they could move into it and enjoy the increasingly superior cultivation environment—how could they not be excited and expectant?

Cloud Concealment Sect, the earliest to move in and restore their city gates, was not idle. After all, they were allies, now living on the same Divine Mountain. Once their city gates were restored, they should appropriately assist others.

After discussions with Jiang Yuan, Cang Rui decided that once the Ninefold City Gate was fully restored, the Ancient Ten Great Sects would jointly host a celebration.

Therefore, he sent out all available personnel to assist other sects.

"Such a pity, Sect Leader Cang is too modest. Restoring such a significant city gate, yet he doesn't lavishly host a grand banquet!" Yan Xuan lamented.

Originally thinking that after restoring one level, they could enjoy a big meal, unexpectedly, they had to wait for the Ninefold City Gate to complete restoration and then hold a celebration banquet. Calculating inside out, wouldn't it mean missing out on eight banquets?

The more he thought about it, the more distressed he became for his mouth, continuously patting his thigh while lying at the master's feet.

Jiang Yuan softly advised, "Sect Leader Cang is thorough in his considerations; otherwise, we would be hosting unlimited banquets in our courtyard. New guests arrived, so I must host one; earlier, after purifying the war remnants, we just hosted another.

According to the current speed, it won't be long before the remaining levels of the city gates can essentially be completed simultaneously. If Cloud Concealment Sect hosts a grand celebration first, the other sects would feel compelled to follow suit.

Shi Hu, at the mention of such festivity, was even more reluctant to work in the Extreme West Secret Realm. Once everyone hosts a grand celebration, it would surely be lively."

"That may be so, but I'm missing out on a lot of good food!" Yan Xuan clung to his leg, persistently.

He could only lower his voice further, soothingly, "Just let me know what you want to eat. When have you ever lacked? Hosting a banquet for so many people would consume plenty of Flood Dragon Meat. Keeping some aside for you, you can have more..."

Before the master could finish speaking, Yan Xuan suddenly realized, patting his thigh with shining eyes, "Master is right! How foolish of me. Rather than sharing with many, it's better to privately enjoy the Flood Dragon Meat, hehe... Master, I want a big plate of braised Flood Dragon Meat!"

Watching the progress of the Flood Dragon Tomb instance, Bai Yunqi and Xie Chenyuan had reached 95%. The remaining part was said to be a labyrinth that was quite difficult to solve, requiring Xie Chenyuan to advance his Divination Technique before they could attempt it.

Jiang Yuan considered that once the Flood Dragon Tomb instance was cleared, there would be no further source of Flood Dragon Meat. Such good stuff would only decrease with consumption. It would be best to start rationing it now, lest everyone's tastes become spoiled and no longer available—it would be a pity!

He presented a plate of braised Flood Dragon Meat to him and affectionately patted Yán Xuān for reassurance, then swiftly entered the "Celestial Palace Holy Realm."

Since the avatar had cleared the land below the war remnants and "purchased" it at the price of 100,000 Spirit Stones per block, the Celestial Palace Holy Realm's level soared to Level Five, containing 150,000 Immortal Qi Value.

The war remnants, after purification from the Sun Palace ruins, were absorbed into it. Hence, the first World Tree branch instance made from fragments was considered thoroughly completed.

The instance vanished from the interface; to reach the Wilderness World Core, one could select the target directly from the Ancient Teleportation Array for teleportation.

Currently, the World Tree had only elevated to Level Four, and just one World Tree map fragment had been accumulated. To synthesize a new instance, one must gather enough materials to raise it to Level Five and then exchange them for another fragment.

"As it ranks third in the list of rare treasures, the Divine Tree is understandably difficult to nurture." Jiang Yuan strolled in the empty, golden, hazy Celestial Palace Holy Realm, comforting himself that it wasn't an issue to not immediately acquire strange materials for upgrading the World Tree.

After all, up to now, he hadn't ventured into the wilderness or Human World yet.

Perhaps, upon opening the next home or roaming the Otherworld, a sidequest reward could provide the necessary materials.

In his Storage Bag, there was an achievement reward he hadn't opened. Considering the ruins of the Sun Palace and how to repair it, if it requires numerous rare materials, he must decide the priority for their usage.

[Celestial Court·Sun Palace]

[During the God-Demon War, the Sun Palace used to suppress the Fiery Evil Demon Monarch was destroyed repeatedly, becoming severely polluted war remnants. The Golden Chicken Immortal used a trace of divinity and their pre-ascension cave dwelling to suppress it at the bottom of the Wilderness World's Golden Chicken Seal Lake. Restoring the Sun Palace would increase the Immortal Qi Value in the Celestial Palace Holy Realm and yield generous rewards.]

No tasks were triggered, yet the system indicated there were rewards.

Jiang Yuan casually selected the nearest small ruin, then clicked the gear icon that popped up and froze—[Would you like to consume: Wood +100, Stone +100, Fiber +50, Random Seed +50, to restore the flower bed?]

"Hmm? Is it this simple?"

"Despite being the Celestial Realm's Divine Hall, how... not even a single piece of Divine Wood is required?"

Assuming he misread, he rubbed his eyes and checked twice to confirm no error—the restoration of the Sun Palace ruins needed only the most basic materials?!
