Chapter 274: Origin Tracing Light
“Add points to rank!”
As soon as Xu Lian emerged from the dense fog, he immediately began to allocate points to advance. He almost laughed as he silently recited these words.
His mood was absolutely high. Not only had he obtained three hundred and ten Roots of Passage, gathering the necessary materials for the Unity Realm, but he had also taken full advantage of the Goddess of Nine Heavens. Most importantly, the Divine Laws had returned to him, ensuring his safety.
It was like killing three birds with one stone.
[Rank points successfully allocated. Add 128 Roots of Passage to advance to Unity Realm, Stage 8.]
He took out 128 Roots of Passage and held them in his hand, thinking silently: Add materials.
The Roots of Passage instantly turned to ash, and his cultivation level surged to Unity Realm, Stage 8.
Continue allocating points.
Continue advancing!

“Unity Realm, Stage 9.”
Feeling the immense power coursing through his body with every movement, Xu Lian closed his eyes in satisfaction. This feeling of power was truly miraculous. No wonder all cultivators wanted to become powerful.
This was a transformation of both body and soul.
This was a leap in the hierarchy of life.
Who wouldn’t be enchanted?
When he opened his eyes, visions of the rising sun, setting moon, and shifting stars flashed within them.
Now, a single look from him would probably overwhelm an ordinary cultivator.
While the idea of making someone pregnant with a glance might be an exaggeration, it was entirely possible for his powerful cultivation level to cause someone’s heart to burst or their soul to shatter without even lifting a finger.
Of course, this was only possible if there was a huge difference in their cultivation levels. If he were facing a higher level cultivator, he would at least need to lift a finger to achieve such an effect…
“It’s time to gather the cultivation resources for the Origin Tracing Realm.”
Xu Lian focused his mind and allocated rank points once more, curious to see what materials were needed for the Origin Tracing Realm.
[Rank points successfully allocated. Add one Origin Tracing Light to advance to the Origin Tracing Realm].
Origin Tracing Light?
A cultivation resource named after the realm itself—this was clearly no ordinary item.
Even if he didn’t know what it was, it didn’t matter. As long as the Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands had it, he was fine.
With that, he took a step forward and appeared at the entrance of the first small world within the Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands.
“Senior Brother Xu is here.”
“Senior Brother Xu…”
The disciples coming and going bowed respectfully, showing their reverence.
Xu Lian nodded slightly and offered a few words of encouragement with a faint smile. It was a small gesture of guidance for the younger generation, allowing him to experience the feeling of being an elder looking down on the youth.
The moment he stepped through the gate, he felt the world spin around him.
“Good grief, I’m already a powerful expert at the Unity Realm Stage 9, and you’re still pulling this trick on me?
Hold still!”
Xu Lian firmly planted his feet, stabilizing the space around him.
The spinning world came to a halt!
There was no need to guess – it was undoubtedly the Goddess of Nine Heavens trying to pull him in.
He couldn’t help but laugh inwardly. With his current cultivation at Unity Realm Stage 9, it wouldn’t be so easy for the Goddess of Nine Heavens to manipulate him as she had before. At the very least, she wouldn’t be able to control him so effortlessly.
He had no desire to see the Goddess of Nine Heavens right now. She was probably in a state of rage… He had no intention of provoking her.
He took another step and appeared in the Elder Hall.
Seeing him, the Elder on duty was already stunned. “It hasn’t even been two years. Has the Nine Heavenly Holy Sons come to apply for cultivation resources again?”
Xu Lian smiled brightly, revealing his pearly white teeth. “That’s right. My cultivation has advanced to Unity Realm, Stage 9, and I’ve come to collect the cultivation resources for the Origin Tracing Realm.”
The on-duty elder didn’t say much and immediately summoned the other elders.
On the spot, Xu Lian demonstrated his Unity Realm, Stage 9 cultivation.
The elders fell silent.
They were all stunned!
Then they started whispering among themselves.
“A Unity Realm, Stage 9 cultivator under thirty years old-has there ever been such a person in the history of the Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands?”
“Probably not. The fastest record was set by the Goddess of Time, who reached the Origin Tracing Realm in one hundred years. Now the Nine Heavenly Holy Son is already at the Unity Realm, Stage 9 before thirty. He’ll definitely reach the peak of the Origin Tracing Realm in less than a hundred years.”
“Unity Realm, Stage 9-just one step away from the Origin Tracing Realm. He’s about to catch up with our cultivation level.”
“However, once he reaches the Origin Tracing Realm, no matter how talented he is, he won’t be able to advance so quickly. It will still take him hundreds of years to catch up to our level.”…
Hundreds of years?
Too small!
Your perspective is too narrow, don’t you know?
Xu Lian chuckled inwardly. As long as he had sufficient cultivation resources, he could become a Supreme in an instant.
After some discussion, the Grand Elder slowly raised his hand.
Elder Cheng Pu and the Elder of the Enforcement Hall immediately followed suit. One was Xu Lian’s master, and the other was his father-in-law. Of course, they agreed to give him the cultivation resources.
The other elders hesitated for a moment, but eventually raised their hands as well.
Xu Lian’s request for cultivation materials was approved.
So the Grand Elder went to the secret treasury and retrieved the Origin Tracing Light for Xu Lian.
As they looked at the Origin Tracing Light, the elders couldn’t take their eyes off of it. After all, this was the cultivation resource they needed themselves!
However, Xu Lian was stunned. He noticed that the Grand Elder only had ten strands of Origin Tracing Light, which looked like glowing worms. “Shouldn’t a portion be one hundred strands? Why are there only ten?”
Upon hearing this, the Elders all twitched at the corners of their mouths.
The Grand Elder said angrily, “The Origin Tracing Light is an ultra-high-level controlled cultivation resource. Do you know how much Origin Tracing Light the entire Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands has in stock right now?”
Xu Lian instinctively asked, “How much?”
The Grand Elder held up a finger. “Exactly one hundred and one strands.”
Xu Lian was shocked.
The Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands was no ordinary top tier force-it was equivalent to the combined strength of nine top tier forces. Yet, they only had one hundred and one strands of Origin Tracing Light?
The Grand Elder explained, “All the elders of the Origin Tracing Realm from the nine sacred lands are eagerly lining up to apply for the Origin Tracing Light. Some of them have been waiting for hundreds of years and still haven’t received a single strand.
This time we’ve approved ten strands for you, giving you priority access. If we were to give you all one hundred strands, the cultivation of all Origin Tracing Realm Elders in the Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands would come to a halt.
While the Origin Tracing Realm Elders of other top-tier forces would continue to progress, ours would stagnate. Do you know what the consequences would be in the long run?
The consequences would be a future gap in the Sage Realm or even the Supreme Realm, leading to instability within the Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands. Therefore, it’s impossible to give all the Origin Tracing Light to you alone,”
Xu Lian fell silent, fully understanding the difficulties faced by the Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands. For an ultra-high-level cultivation resource like Origin Tracing Light, receiving ten strands at once was already a great privilege.
“Thank you for the sacred land’s nurturing. This disciple will remember it in his heart.”
He bowed respectfully and solemnly accepted the Origin Tracing Light with both hands.
The Grand Elder added, “However, you needn’t worry. Since the higher-ups have already approved a portion of the cultivation resources for you to reach the Supreme Realm, the Elder Hall will definitely allocate them for you. The Nine Heavenly Sacred Lands’ exclusive cultivation resource zone produces one or two strands of Origin Tracing Light every eight to ten years. Within a few hundred years, we should be able to collect one hundred strands for you.”
“…” Xu Lian’s mood was complicated.
It would take hundreds of years to collect one hundred strands of Origin Tracing Light?
By then, it would be too late!
Some of the top-tier geniuses of his age would likely have caught up with him by then.
What was even more frustrating was that even if he received one hundred strands of Origin Tracing Light, he would still need four hundred and ten more. Where would he get them?
This wasn’t a math problem.
It was a philosophical one…
It made him question his life.
After all, the Origin Tracing Light was a cultivation resource for the Origin Tracing Realm. The resources needed for the Sage Realm and the Supreme Realm would undoubtedly be even rarer.
“This is going to be a disaster.”
Xu Lian returned to the Divine Clan’s ancestral lands with the ten strands of Origin Tracing Light.
There was nothing more to say. He would use them first.
To advance to Origin Tracing Realm, Stage 1, he needed one strand of Origin Tracing Light.
For Origin Tracing Realm, Stage 2, he needed two strands.
For Origin Tracing Realm, Stage 3, he needed four strands.
This used up seven strands, leaving him with only three.
For Origin Tracing Realm, Stage 4, he needed eight strands, which he didn’t have enough for.

Experiencing the unprecedented feeling of power, Xu Lian was intoxicated. The feeling of being a peak expert was truly different. He was reluctant to stop, but with only three strands of Origin Tracing Light left, it was insufficient to advance to the Origin Tracing Realm, Stage 4.
