Chapter 380 Ch 380: Saint Spirit Fruit
After leaving the Stormwatch Sect, Ling Xiaolong entered a forest and initiated his Luminous Essence Crystal hunting plan.
With a sweep of his Divine Sense, he instantly enveloped almost the entire forest. Perhaps owing to his numerous transformations, including the transformation of the Lotus of Chaos and his personal Chaos, his Divine Sense had expanded significantly.
It's noteworthy that the disparity between the incomplete Chaos and the original Chaos is substantial. While a warrior's Divine Sense might cover a million miles in the incomplete Chaos, in the original Chaos, it might extend only a few thousand miles.
The forest was vast, spanning at least a few million miles, yet Ling Xiaolong managed to encompass the entire expanse with his Divine Sense. One can only imagine how much stronger Ling Xiaolong's Divine Sense has become.
Enveloping the entire forest within the grasp of his Divine Sense, Ling Xiaolong saw millions of Luminous Beasts.
However, maybe because this forest was located in the Outer Region, the strongest beast was only a Four-marked Beast. Such a Luminous Beast has the strength of a Celestial Sovereign of the first stage.
There were not too many of these beasts. There were around a thousand.
"Soul Destruction!"
Ignoring the One and Two-marked Luminous Beasts, Ling Xiaolong killed all the Three and Four-marked beasts.
After those beasts' death, their corpse glowed brilliantly before transforming into marked Crystals. These were Three and Four-marked Luminous Essence Crystals.
Ling Xiaolong manipulated the Rule of Space belonging to his personal Chaos, and with a mere thought, all of these crystals were stored inside a pocket dimension that Ling Xiaolong had created within his Chaos for personal use.
There were hundreds of thousands of Three-marked crystals and several thousands of Four-marked crystals.
It did not take much effort for Ling Xiaolong to instantly become richer than even the Stormwatch Sect.
Smiling, he teleported and returned to Solar Phoenix Sect.
Teleportation was his unique skill, not the manipulation of Rule of Space, so he was effortlessly to teleport without the obstruction of Rule of the original Chaos.
But Ling Xiaolong learned a lesson. He knew he had to do something about these conflicting Rules very soon.
Returning to the Solar Phoenix Sect, Ling Xiaolong gave all the three -marked Luminous Essence Crystals to Feng Hanli, and kept the four-marked Luminous Essence Crystals with him.
Feng Hanli's hands were trembling when he received the resources he could have never imagined to obtain previously.
It was not only him, but every elder and even Sect Leader were trembling with excitement. They kept thanking Ling Xiaolong.
Ling Xiaolong smiled at them and asked them to lead him to the place arranged for him to live.
Not long after, Ling Xiaolong was led to a luxurious courtyard by a disciple of the sect named Li Bai. He was assigned to serve Ling Xiaolong.
Li Bai was the head disciple of the Solar Phoenix Sect and a genius. He was already a warrior on the verge of advancing to the Celestial Awakening Realm. With the Luminous Essence Crystals provided by Ling Xiaolong, he would soon be able to take this step.
Ling Xiaolong could understand why Sect Leader Feng made his disciple and potential next leader of the sect to serve him, but he did not say anything. He just smiled and let them do whatever they wanted.
.....
"So, even with these crystals, advancing is not that easy!"
It had been an entire day since Ling Xiaolong entered the courtyard. Throughout the day, he absorbed the four-marked Luminous Essence Crystals continuously. With the consumption of each crystal, he sensed his cultivation growing stronger.
Ultimately, Ling Xiaolong directly devoured all the crystals. Despite these thousands of four-marked Luminous Essence Crystals, that were sufficient to cause a huge war between powerful factions of the Outer Region, Ling Xiaolong's cultivation only reached the peak of the First Stage.
Ling Xiaolong finally comprehended why the majority of people in this Land were not powerful, even with the existence of miraculous treasures like the Luminous Essence Crystals.
This was because advancing in cultivation was not as straightforward as absorbing these crystals. The quantity of crystals required for a single breakthrough was something many warriors couldn't afford to possess.
.....
On this day...
Bhumak~
A secret chamber in the Solar Phoenix Sect suddenly exploded. Terrifying energy swept out and frantically spread in all directions.
Li Bai's expression changed. He immediately rushed over and set up a barrier to control the terrifying energy within a certain range so as not to let the violent energy cause any damage to the other buildings.
Ling Xiaolong suddenly appeared in front of Li Bai with a flash. He furrowed his brows slightly.
Could it be that a person had come to attack the Solar Phoenix Sect?
Feng Hanli, Qiubai, and Lu Tianming were also alarmed as well. They rushed over not long after Ling Xiaolong arrived.
"What happened?" Ling Xiaolong asked.
Ling Xiaolong was not familiar with this terrifying force, but Li Bai was very familiar with it.
He sighed and said, "This is the result of a warrior, who has opened all eight Hidden Gates of Celestials, failing to break through the limit and exploding his body."
Ling Xiaolong was stunned. He thought that there was an enemy attack, but it turned out to be...
Very soon, someone came and reported.
"Reporting to Master Ling, Sect Master, and elders. Elder Xuan Bai had entered the secret chamber yesterday evening to break through. He is dead now!"
"Elder Xuan Bai." Feng Qiubai was startled. That was a core elder of the sect. He died just like that?
Feng Hanli sighed and said, "Although Xuan Bai was an elder of the sect, he was just a warrior with opened Hidden Gates of Celestials. He was stuck in that realm for hundreds of thousands of years now. Whether it is advancing to the Celestial Awakening Realm or Celestial Sovereign Realm, breaking through the limits is always fraught with danger. If one doesn't succeed, one will die. It is not something that can be easily broken through with a large amount of Luminous Essence Crystals."
Feng Hanli's words carried a hint of advice and warning.
Because of Ling Xiaolong's existence, the Solar Phoenix Sect had obtained far too many resources yesterday. This gave the Solar Phoenix Sect a feeling that it would definitely become stronger very quickly.
Even Feng Qiubai and Lu Tianming had imagined what would happen after they advanced quickly in cultivation.
However, today's explosion of Elder Xuan Bai and Feng Hanli's warning had awakened Feng Qiubai and the rest, causing them to be drenched in cold sweat.
"Thank you, Elder Feng." How could Feng Qiubai and the rest not understand that what Feng Hanli said earlier was good for them? Each and every one of them sincerely bowed.
This was gratitude from the bottom of their hearts.
"Master Ling, there is something I don't know if I should tell you." After thanking Feng Hanli, Feng Qiubai seemed to have suddenly thought of something and hesitated.
"What is it?" Ling Xiaolong raised his brows in surprise.
"It's like this, I've found news about a magical treasure called Saint Spirit Fruit. It is said that eating the Saint Spirit Fruit can bring a warrior closer to the lights of saints. People could enter a state of enlightenment. Most importantly, as long as they are still in this state, they can continue to break through in cultivation continuously without pause. There will be no danger to the foundation as well."
'Oh, such a treasure actually exists!' Ling Xiaolong was startled in his heart. Doesn't it mean as long as he continued to maintain the state of enlightenment, he could directly become a Celestial Sovereign?
Ling Xiaolong's face lit up.
However, Feng Qiubai's next words disappointed Ling Xiaolong. He said, "The longest a person was able to maintain the state of enlightenment under the effect of Saint Spirit Fruit was three days. In these three days, he actually broke through four times continuously, advancing to the Seventh Stage of Celestial Awakening Realm from the Third Stage."
Anyway, this was still enough to make countless people fight for this treasure. Ling Xiaolong was also one of them.
If he could increase his strength even slightly, it also meant that his final strength would be much stronger than estimated after fusing with Ling Xiaolong #1.
"But..."
Finally, Sect Master Feng started hesitating for some reason.
"Sect Master Feng, you are having such a difficult time speaking something. Could it be that there is some problem with this Saint Spirit Fruit?" When Feng Hanli saw Feng Qiubai's awkward expression, he frowned and asked. He also wanted to learn about the location of this miraculous fruit.
Ling Xiaolong was reminded and indeed found that Feng Qiubai's expression was very complicated.
"What is the problem? Tell me. If I can solve it, I will try my best to solve it." Ling Xiaolong said.
Lu Tianming smiled bitterly. "Let me say it."
He explained, "We have learned that this Saint Spirit Fruit is in one of the powerful forces in the Central Region. That force is called the Ancient Divine Gate. The leader of that force is already a Peak Celestial Sovereign of Chaos and is just one step away from becoming a Master of Chaos."
At this moment, Ling Xiaolong finally understood Feng Qiubai's difficult expression.
