Lin Yi strolled casually through the Holy City, his gaze sweeping over the palaces and pavilions on both sides of the street. When he saw the stone archway marking the beginning of the Purple Mansion Holy Land, a sudden thought flashed through his mind, and he remembered something.

Chapter 279 Zixia and the Azure Dragon King
♂? ，，
(There are nine pieces of the Primordial Jade, I misremembered. I'm very sorry. The reason I didn't find any Primordial Jade is because the protagonist's strength is too weak. Yeah, that's it.)
Besides collecting all eight pieces of the Imperial Jade, there is another way to view the Beginningless Scripture.
That is to find a primordial holy body and bring it to Purple Mountain, where one can also obtain the inheritance of the Great Emperor Wushi.
Lin Yi remembered that the current generation's Purple Mansion Saintess was a primordial Dao embryo.
Upon entering the Purple Mansion Stone Archway, sharp-eyed individuals immediately recognized Lin Yi. The archway's manager greeted him respectfully and asked, "Mr. Qingxuan, are you here to select a stone?"
Lin Yi shook his head slightly and said, "Is the Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion here? I have something to discuss with her."
The manager of the stone archway said, "This way, sir. I will send someone to inform the Holy Maiden immediately."
In a beautiful stone garden, Lin Yi met the Purple Palace Saintess. This woman was not very old, only about twenty years old. Her purple robes fluttered as she stood by the emerald lake, like a purple fairy flower.
She was tall and slender with a slim waist. Her hair danced lightly, shrouded in purple mist. Her stunning face was veiled in mystery, and a radiant light shone from between her brows. Through the purple mist, a purple glow bloomed, revealing a Dao seal.
The Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion looked at Lin Yi calmly, as if she were one with heaven and earth, merging into the Dao and nature. Her voice was magnetic and melodious, "Zixia greets Master Qingxuan."
Lin Yi said, "Miss Zixia is indeed a naturally born Daoist. I wish to exchange three zhu of Medicine King for six zhu of your original essence. Is that alright?"
"Please leave, sir," the Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion said coldly. The origin of the Dao Embryo was related to her life. Although the Medicine King was good, one had to be alive to obtain it.
"Six plants." Lin Yi spoke as if they weren't the Medicine King, but rather a bunch of cabbages in the field. "If Miss Zixia doesn't agree, I'll go talk to the Holy Master of the Purple Mansion."
The Holy Goddess of the Purple Mansion was moved. She knew how attractive the six medicinal kings were. If the person in front of her could really produce so many medicinal kings, it would probably cause a bloodbath in the Holy City.
Death itself is not scary; what is truly terrifying is watching yourself slowly walk towards death.
The more powerful a cultivator is, the more insane they become as their lifespan nears its end, and the more capable they are of doing anything.
Of course, there are Supreme Elders and Old Saints in the Purple Mansion Holy Land who are nearing the end of their lifespans. As long as there is hope of extending their lives, a Saintess with a primordial Dao embryo is not someone who cannot be sacrificed.
"Half of the origin is too much, thirty percent." The Purple Mansion Saintess softened her attitude and bargained.
Lin Yi smiled and said, "Thirty percent is too little, how about forty percent? I'll exchange it for four King Herbs. You can pay for one first, which will be enough to make up for the damage caused by the source cutting."
The Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion nodded.
After leaving behind a king of herbs, Lin Yi departed from the Purple Mansion Stone Archway.
The two used magic while talking, so they weren't afraid of their conversation being leaked.
After discussing the origin of the innate Dao embryo, Lin Yi began to consider the origin of the Ancient Sacred Body.
He wasn't afraid that the Purple Mansion Saintess would break her promise. Destroying the Purple Mansion Holy Land was difficult, but killing a Purple Mansion Saintess was not difficult at all.
If it weren't for the desire to avoid making a big fuss and causing some people to speculate, Lin Yi would have simply found an opportunity to kidnap the person directly using his Dao Body—the method couldn't be simpler and more brutal.
The beginningless lineage has just appeared in the world, and the timing is extremely sensitive.
For Lin Yi, any problem that can be resolved peacefully with the help of the Medicine King is not a problem at all.
…………
The northern region of the Eastern Wilderness is boundless and rich in mineral resources, making it famous throughout the world.
Success and failure both stem from the source; this mysterious substance, condensing the essence of life, seems to have drained the spiritual energy of the entire northern region.
The most productive area of "source" is the region surrounding the Primordial Ancient Mine. Centered on it, the area within a radius of 100,000 li is divided equally among various holy sites.
The Primordial Ancient Mine is one of the seven forbidden zones of life in the Eastern Wilderness. It is located in the deepest part of this region and is surrounded by the source areas of various holy lands, but no major power dares to explore it.
Countless ages ago, too many ominous things happened in that ancient mine. One holy lord after another went there and never returned, so no one dared to covet it anymore.
That place became known as the legendary Nightmare Land...
However, although the Primordial Ancient Mine is the most mysterious and terrifying, there will be no trouble if you don't provoke it.
For the various holy sites, the greatest threat actually came from those bandits.
The people of the North are known for their fierce and ruthless nature, and bandits roam the land, causing bloodshed every day. It is a truly chaotic place.
The powerful bandits came from all over the Eastern Wilderness, and there were even wanderers from the Central Plains, the Northern Desert, and the Southern Ridge. They all came from the same source, forming a terrifying force.
Among them, thirteen bandits were the most notorious, each leading a group of powerful warriors, seriously threatening the security of the Holy Land's source area.
The various holy lands had repeatedly tried to suppress them, but all attempts ended in failure. The thirteen bandits fled far away after their attack, making it very difficult to find their whereabouts.
The powerful demon king, Azure Dragon King, was the fourth of the thirteen bandits of the Northern Region.
Lin Yi met this bandit in a restaurant run by the demon race.
The Azure Dragon King was a tall and imposing figure, dressed in azure iron armor. He was strong and powerful, exuding explosive energy. His eyes shone like stars, and most remarkably, a pair of dragon horns, sparkling and gleaming, appeared in his azure hair.
After sizing each other up, the Azure Dragon King let out a hearty laugh and said, "Please, Mr. Qingxuan."
"please."
