Chapter 356: The World Tree Sprout
y appearing human, its eyes full of disbelief.Fang Chen then shot through, piercing Lin Zhong's spirit demon with a single strike. The blow instantly extinguished its life.All of this happened in the...A top-grade seventh-order magical artifact: Shadow Ninja Ring. After using it, unless the opponent's cultivation level is two major realms higher than yours, it would be difficult for them to detect it without careful observation. What a good thing!
Fang Chen exclaimed in admiration, "The other party has truly gifted me with a grand present!"
Besides the Shadow Clone Jutsu, he naturally wouldn't miss out on that Golden Bell.
He initially thought it was a formidable enemy weapon, but he never expected it to be a sound attack, targeting the most vulnerable part of a cultivator's spiritual consciousness - their Sea of Consciousness.
Even with his divine and demonic eyes, he couldn't distinguish it. It would be even more impossible for others to do so.
If this treasure is used unexpectedly, it will certainly deliver an unforeseen blow to the enemy.
He put the Golden Bell into his hand.
The unowned golden bell easily acknowledged its new master.
"Sound-Transcending Bell, Rank 5 Xuan Artifact. Striking the bell emits an attack sound wave that creates an auditory barrier. The closer one is to the source of the sound wave, the greater the damage inflicted. It cannot distinguish friend from foe, so use with caution.
"It's kind of interesting."
Fang Chen smiled with satisfaction: "This Heavenly God Temple's artifacts are quite numerous. The person before had a bunch of protective artifacts on him, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to withstand me for so long."
He wouldn't know, the Heavenly God Palace is renowned throughout the world for its abundance of magical treasures.
Even it can be said that the entire Heavenly Domain is forged from refining into the top three realms, and the treasures on their bodies are naturally numerous.
Unfortunately, treasure is always just an external object. In the end, both Fangchen and the golden egg met their demise.
He put the Shadow Ninja Ring and the Soundless Bell into his storage ring, then his gaze fell once more on the pedestal's treasure vase.
He naturally wouldn't forget that precious vase.
Rose into the air and landed before the treasure basin.
On top of the treasure pot sat a lid. Fang Chen opened it, and a wave of pure power rushed into his nostrils instantly.
Fang Chen looked, and inside was flowing a kind of spirit liquid.
The spiritual liquid presented seven colors, with a lingering glow of radiance and an air of righteousness.
"This is the Seven-Colored Inquiry Liquid!"
Fang Chen's eyes lit up, and his face was filled with joy.
This elixir is of immense benefit for those who seek the Dao, even those at the realm of questioning the Dao. In the Lotian Domain, it's practically an invaluable treasure sought after by all.
Even for a top-tier sect like Tiansxue Shengzong, there's at most only a small bottle of it.
But now what stood before Fang Chen was a whole potful.
If it were auctioned off, a single bottle could fetch billions of spirit stones.
And the reason he is so valuable is because he has a certain effect.
Fusion of Taoist writings.
If you want to enter the path of inquiry, then you must choose a Dao Wen to fuse with in order to enter the path of inquiry.
This master's thesis is extremely important, determining future achievements.
If your study of Daoist texts in later periods cannot progress further, then you have reached the end.
And this step of integrating the Taoist writings decides how high one's future achievements will be.
To reach the rank of a master, one needs to fuse at least 20-30 Dao Texts. That is barely passing and there is still hope.
Around fifty percent of them have about half a chance of entering the sect, and this is already considered a genius level.
Reaching seventy percent, they are almost all top prodigies. Even in the Nine Provinces, there are very few comparable to them.
Only top-tier prodigies like Nian Ji and Jian Huo could achieve this.
And the seven-colored question-asking liquid is the most precious treasure that allows Dao Wen to fuse at a higher level!
Even if one has already entered the path of cultivation, one's integration level can still be enhanced.
And this is the reason why the cultivators of the Nine States Ask Dao went crazy.
To obtain this treasure, they might not just ask questions. There may be hope to enter the ranks of masters, even reaching the realm of spirits or higher!
And this single pot is enough for a top talent to reach seventy percent.
Fang Chen didn't hesitate, he put the lid back on and took out several talismans to stick on the surface before putting it away in his storage ring.
Meanwhile, be wary of the Western Zhou Dynasty. Fear that someone might come to steal.
There's no way, this Qixiu Inquiry Liquid is simply too important to him.
Unlike the asking-for-directions stone.
The former strengthens integration, and the latter specifies direction.
Both are extremely important and indispensable.
Thinking of this, Fang Chen's heart moved.
Now I have the Road-Seeking Stone and the Seven-Colored Questioning Liquid. Perhaps I can fuse Dao Wen to 100% as well.
In the past, he wouldn't even have dared to think about it.
Even Zhao Pinfan, a powerful cultivator of the Linghai realm, could not achieve 100% fusion of Dao Wen.
Ke Fangchen is no ordinary person; he has a divine and demonic inheritance. Now, he also has the assistance of the Asking Path Immortal Stone and the Seven-Colored Questioning Dao Liquid.
This multiplied his hope by a hundredfold.
But soon he brought his thoughts back.
"Now is not the time to be thinking about these things, let's just collect all of the spirit stones here first."
If anyone else comes later, there's bound to be another big fight.
Fang Chen put all the spirit stones into his storage ring and was about to leave when Xiao Ta stopped him.
"Hmm Could there be other treasures here" Fang Chen wondered.
Xiao Ta didn't answer, but instead led him to a wall in the main hall.
Fang Chen only then discovered that there were some murals on the wall.
These murals seem to be depicting the rise of a peerless prodigy.
He has fallen to ruin, and also reached the pinnacle of success. He was once the object of everyone's attention, but he also became public enemy number one.
From first to last, he returned to the palace, and there he perished.
This should be the owner of this palace.
Fang Chen thought to himself.
When they reached the last mural, Xiao Ta emitted a tremor again, causing Fang Chen to place his hand on the Ice Snow Palace depicted in the mural.
Although Fang Chen was doubtful, he still went along with it.
When he pressed his hand down, there was no reaction. Just as he was puzzled, a terrifying suction force suddenly came from the wall.
"Damn it!"
Fang Chen only had time to let out a curse before being pulled into the wall and vanishing without a trace.
And the mural gradually faded away, as if it had never existed.
Meanwhile, the core area of the Ice Snow Palace.
This was a grander palace, but within it lay an eerie silence. The hall was lit by candles, yet they emitted a sickly green glow.
In the center of the palace, a gigantic coffin floated in mid-air.
And at the very heart of the palace there was a small sapling, emanating a faint green glow brimming with life.
Suddenly! The palace gate slowly opened.
Shu Ren walked slowly in.
Leading the way was a girl floating in mid-air, holding a pearl in her hand. This was Meng Yao.
And of course, by her side were Meng Junyu and another young girl named Meng Qqi.
As for the three, they all died on the road.
Looking at Mengjunyu's disheveled appearance, the dangers along the way were self-evident.
He felt no remorse for sacrificing three people; instead, a look of excitement flashed across his face the moment he saw the coffins.
"Finally here! This must be the burial place of Xue Shan Patriarch!"
Mengjunyu was thrilled and immediately focused his gaze on the sapling behind the coffin!
When he saw the sapling, he was even more excited and shouted, "That must be the World Sapling! Holy Maiden! With this, my family will surely be able to easily overcome this crisis!"
After he finished speaking, he wanted to rush up and grab the sapling of the World Tree.
and so on.
Mengyao called out to him.
Mengjun Yu asked in confusion, "Why The sapling of the World Tree is right before our eyes!"
Mengyao stared at the coffin and said, "The ancestor of Xue Shan has always been cunning. He must have a reason for luring us here. Be cautious."
But Meng Junyu said, "That Xue Shan ancestor has been dead for how many years What does it matter if a dead person lives or dies"
Mengyao didn't speak, she just gave him a cold glance.
Meng Jun was suddenly too afraid to speak another word.
Meng Yao only then slowly floated forward, arriving before the coffin of Xue Shan Lao Zu.
She opened her third eye and looked at the coffin. She really did find some clues.
One could see several spiritual veins beneath the World Tree sapling, all running through the coffin and transporting the purest life force.
Meng Yao found this unsurprising. She gazed at the coffin and said softly, “Back then, you were critically wounded for this sapling and wanted to rely on the World Tree Sprout to revive yourself. But the World Tree Sprout needs to become a full-fledged tree before it can bring someone back from the dead. Xue Shan, even in your terror, you thought you might be able to come back to life, but that was impossible."
She looked again at the sapling of the World Tree, and when she saw that the western side was covered with dense ancient script, she said, "Is this the trap you left behind But that's all there is to it."
The next moment, she formed hand seals, densely packed ancient Daoist script appearing, imprinted onto the void above the World Tree sapling!
Bang!
Suddenly! The saplings of the World Tree appeared in the void, and those ancient texts that had been hidden in it all manifested.ang Chen was at a loss for words. Lin Xueyan had been hostile towards him before, and if he admitted it, she would probably fight him to the death.Could he possibly deny it Even a fool could tell he's...
