Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming Chapter 1506: 590: The World's Only Spiritual Root

Chapter 1506: Chapter 590: The World’s Only Spiritual Root

Most of the valley had already been eroded by the fog, with only the area around the Spiritual Spring resisting the invasion for ten feet around.

The lower half of the Pure Spirit Tree that had been cut down was now emanating a gleaming jade light, as if undergoing so kind of transformation.

“It seems that the Spiritual Energy from the spring is surging towards the tree trunk. Is it about to sprout anew?”

Zhou Chun’s eyes glimred with interest and he soon discovered the source of the trunk’s strange change.

This piqued his curiosity, making him want to see what the trunk would ultimately transform into, and for this, he did not move the fallen half of the tree.

As Zhou Chun observed further, he noticed that the fog’s erosion was not completely blocked and was slowly advancing inch by inch.

He waited for a little over two hours, and the fog advanced another thirty feet, but the further it went, the more resistance it seed to encounter.

After about a day, only a ten-foot radius around the Pure Spirit Tree stump remained untouched by the fog, and even part of the Spiritual Spring had been tainted.

Yet, the Pure Spirit Tree stump did not sprout as Zhou Chun had hoped, appearing instead as a container for Spiritual Energy.

At this mont, Zhou Chun regretted not bringing Mu Sang with him; perhaps they could have helped the Pure Spirit Tree sohow.

After waiting another two days, the fog completely covered a three-foot radius around the Pure Spirit Tree stump, even eroding part of its underground roots.

Seeing this, he hesitated no longer and imdiately drew his sword to unearth the stump, taking it with him as he left the valley.

From that mont, this once idyllic valley was entirely transford into a land of evil!

Half a day later, Zhou Chun flew out from the other end of Nieling Gorge, successfully entering the territory of Shayang Country, which lies across from Xia Country, separated by the gorge.

Like Huoluo Country, Shayang Country is part of the extre western Cultivation World, where one of the major boundaries is Nieling Gorge.

It was thanks to Shan Tianlong that Zhou Chun crossed Nieling Gorge so quickly.

While waiting for the fog to erode the Pure Spirit Tree stump, he had opened Shan Tianlong’s storage pouch and found a fairly detailed map of Nieling Gorge, which marked several shortcuts for easy passage between the two lands.

Of course, this shortcut would be safe as long as one wasn’t worried about being eroded by the Evil Fiend Qi.

Without such ans, others could easily perish on such a shortcut.

“So this is Shayang Country? Let’s find a place to rest first!”

From the sky, Zhou Chun looked at the desertified wastelands below and imdiately flew toward a majestic mountain range in the distance.

After flying more than three hundred miles, Zhou Chun arrived over a vast mountain range.

Overall, this mountain range was sowhat desolate with exposed, eroded mountains, sparse vegetation, and a low concentration of Spiritual Energy, not much of a Spirit Mountain Blessed Land.

However, several nomadic tribes had set up camps here, and Zhou Chun could see so low-level cultivators moving about in the mountains.

Not particularly inclined to seek out news for the mont, Zhou Chun randomly chose an uninhabited mountain and carved out a temporary cave dwelling there for shelter.

He sat in ditation in a stone chamber of the cave for two days to recover, and then began to take inventory of his gains from traversing Nieling Gorge.

This crossing of Nieling Gorge had brought Zhou Chun much hardship and fright, but also considerable rewards.

Firstly, were the magical treasures and storage pouches contributed by Shan Tianlong and Shan ng.

Shan Tianlong possessed four magical treasures: a black flying sword, a purple-black bell, a dark silk scarf, and a Fla Treasure Bead.

Among them, the flying sword and scarf were middle-grade magical treasures, with the flying sword being his Lifebound Dharma Treasure.

However, during the duel, the dark silk scarf was first torn by attacks from the Twin Dragons Ocean-Overturning Flask, and later shredded by Zhou Chun’s pursuing Taibai Slice Flood Dragon Sword, rendering it almost destroyed.

Additionally, the Fla Treasure Bead was damaged at its core by the Greater Yin Annihilation Divine Light when Zhou Chun killed Shan Tianlong, greatly reducing its power.

Shan Tianlong’s cultivation technique was quite special, making it difficult for other Golden Core Stage cultivators to refine and use his Lifebound Flying Sword, rendering it unusable for the ti being.

Thus, of the magical treasures Zhou Chun truly gained, only the purple-black bell was in usable condition.

On the other hand, Shan ng, swiftly dealt with by Zhou Chun, left behind an intact Lifebound Dharma Treasure—a dark-golden giant axe—as well as a slightly damaged black iron ring Defensive Dharma Treasure. Both were inferior-grade magical treasures.

Of course, there were losses as well; Zhou Chun’s Mountain Shield was severely burned by Shan Tianlong’s True Fire, unlikely to fully recover without decades of nourishnt.

Even the Taibai Slice Flood Dragon Sword was slightly dulled by infernal flas in its clash with Shan Tianlong’s Lifebound Flying Sword, requiring years of nurturing to restore its edge.

However, these losses were negligible compared to his gains.

Besides magical treasures, Zhou Chun also acquired the storage pouches of the Shan brothers.

As bandit cultivators guilty of nurous cris, their storage pouches contained plenty of valuables.

There were as many as thirteen various magical treasures and Spirit Materials alone!

This abundance was due to the fact that the Far Western Lands naturally produced various Spirit Gold Ores, and the scholar count was far less than in the Tianling Region and other nations.
