Chapter 442: Chapter 444: Geese Pass Leaving Their Call, People Pass Leaving Their Na [3/5]
"Top-grade Fire Spirit Root, top-grade Water Spirit Root, top-grade Earth Spirit Root!" The Second Elder was ecstatic. Having dual Spirit Roots already marked one as a genius among geniuses, but Three Spirit Roots? She had never even heard of such a thing.
Yet, this was not the end for the little one. The next mont, the earthen sphere turned cyan, and the Second Elder, casting aside all pretense of a master’s decorum, exclaid, "This is a top-grade Wind Spirit Root! Heavens, she’s the possessor of four Spirit Roots!"
The stone transford once again. It turned black, and CRACKLING and POPPING sounds emanated from within.
"A top-grade Thunder Spirit Root!"
"Wind, Thunder, Water, Fire, and Earth? The Five Elents! She actually possesses the Five Elents Spirit Root!" The Second Elder went mad with excitent. Such a phenonon was unheard of in the Underground World.
Heavens, this Wu Tian and this little one... if I take them back, I fear even the so-called Palace Masters of the Righteous Path, who are so good at keeping up appearances, couldn’t help but drool, right? Hahaha, let’s see how he manages to keep feigning indifference. Thinking this, the Second Elder felt imnsely pleased.
Recently, the Spiritual Energy in this region had suddenly vanished. Now, it was barely better than nothing, as sparse as in the Surface World. If things continued this way, the Eastern Taizhong Palace would surely decline. But now, with the discovery of this super-grade Fire Spirit Root and the top-grade Five Elents Spirit Root, her Cultivation would surely reach new heights if she absorbed them. This was an undeniable fact.
I might even ascend in status, perhaps to the position of Supre Elder. the Second Elder thought, her heart swelling with anticipation.
"Are you all shocked? Hehehe, that’s right, I’m just that impressive." Seeing the looks on the faces of those around her, especially those who had doubted her earlier, their eyes now nearly bulging out in disbelief, she felt a thrill. This was precisely the sensation she relished!
A disciple nad Lan Yun, the Second Elder’s own Direct Disciple, approached her. He was unaware of the plan to absorb the Spirit Roots for Cultivation and only feared that his status would be in jeopardy with the arrival of Wu Tian and the child.
"Master, I..." Lan Yun stood beside the Second Elder, montarily at a loss for words.
"Don’t worry." The Second Elder, knowing her beloved disciple’s thoughts, reached out and gently patted Lan Yun’s hand, whispering, "I won’t favor anyone else."
Lan Yun nodded happily.
Hehehe, this father and daughter... having their Spirit Roots absorbed by us should be considered their good fortune. I’ve never absorbed a super-grade Spirit Root, let alone a Five Elents Spirit Root. I wonder what will happen after I do? Will our Cultivation soar? Or will we beco Immortals on the spot? the Second Elder thought, her ambitions running wild. At the very ntion of the word "Immortal," a wave of heat surged through her heart.
"Imdiately send a ssenger pigeon to the Palace Master and the other Elders," the Second Elder whispered to Lan Yun. "Also, after you dispatch the pigeon, go to your room and... clean yourself up."
Lan Yun blushed, nodded, and hurried off to comply.
News spread swiftly from Peach Blossom Spring in all directions. It told of a man possessing a super-grade Fire Spirit Root and a child with the top-grade Five Elents Spirit Root. The Underground World also used ssenger pigeons, but these birds were extraordinary. They were trained according to thods for creating Spirit Pets found in fragnted Cultivation texts and possessed a degree of Spiritual Nature. Soon, the pigeon arrived at the Eastern Taizhong Palace.
Heavenly King Zhufu, the Palace Master, was practicing with his Sky-Piercing Halberd when he received the news.
"What? A super-grade Fire Spirit Root! And a child with the Five Elents Spirit Root?"
At first, Heavenly King Zhufu was sowhat annoyed at the interruption. But after hearing the news, he was stunned, then overjoyed, though his brow still furrowed slightly. They want to absorb Spirit Roots? That is a thod of the Evil Path, not the Righteous Path! Should I go? Is it appropriate? Yes, I am the Palace Master of the Eastern Taizhong Palace. I must set an example!
But another voice arose in his mind. But this is a super-grade Spirit Root—unprecedented! And the Five Elents Spirit Root has never been seen before, either. Can you truly give them up?
Heavenly King Zhufu hesitated. I am the Palace Master, a representative of the Righteous Path. How can I commit such an act of the Evil Path? As long as no one knows, it will be fine, right? A super-grade Spirit Root and the Five Elents Spirit Root... think about it! Neither has ever been seen before. Who knows how one’s Yuan Force would change after absorbing the Spiritual Energy from them? What if... what if I accidentally achieve immortality?
Achieve immortality? To Immortal Seekers, those words held an irresistible temptation. His eyes shone brightly. Right. As long as no one knows, it’s fine!
Two days had passed since Wu Tian and the little one’s Spirit Roots were tested. However, the testing wasn’t finished; it was still ongoing. During these two days, many who heard the news tried to visit Wu Tian, hoping to curry favor with him. But Wu Tian had already told the people of Peach Blossom Spring not to bring anyone else. He and the little one had remained inside No Heaven Villa the entire ti, its doors tightly shut, refusing all visitors.
「Now, in the backyard of No Heaven Villa」
"A wild goose leaves its cry; a man leaves his na." Live as a hero among mortals, and be a valiant spirit in death! No matter what realm I’m in, if I don’t achieve sothing earth-shattering, isn’t that just a wasted life? A disservice to myself? A smile touched Wu Tian’s lips. My Boundless Corporation is destined to beco the number one corporation in the Surface World! And No Heaven Villa... I will make it the number one villa in the Underground World! If a god stands in my way, I will kill the god. If a buddha blocks my path, I will kill the buddha!
An imnse pressure—unmatched, peerless, and utterly tyrannical—erupted from Wu Tian. He yearned to quickly absorb the Spiritual Energy of the Underground World. Perhaps only then would he have a chance to break through Earth’s constraints and reach the Immortal Emperor Realm. He needed to know the current state of his Wu Tian Divine Dynasty!
「On the third day」
Wu Tian stepped out of the villa. He ordered Tao Qianyang to gather so herbs and peach blossoms, and he had Yuan Beizheng personally go and buy so iron ore. These ingredients were for a sauce Wu Tian was preparing to make. He aid to use this sauce to attract even more powerful individuals. And then, their Yuan Force would be his for the taking! He would absorb their Yuan Force, assimilate it into his body, and transform it back into Spiritual Power.
As for the iron ore, Wu Tian planned to use it to forge cooking utensils. That’s right. He intended to propagate The Way of Culinary Cultivation! He was destined to leave Earth one day, so he ought to leave sothing behind—a legacy for the people to rember him by.
Just like the Creation Martial Emperor. He is no longer in the Immortal Emperor Realm, yet to this day, his great na is still rembered there. In one’s lifeti, there must be pursuits! There must be ambition! Without them, isn’t life as dull and aningless as a salted fish?
Yuan Beizheng arrived at No Heaven Villa very quickly. He hadn’t gone to buy iron ore because his family already had so in storage. Back in the day, when Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng practiced alchemy, they had collected this rare iron ore over many years, intending to use it to forge dicinal cauldrons and pill furnaces. But they never got the chance. They could never have expected that these rare iron ores had finally found their true master: Wu Tian.
