1614 Eighth-Grade Soul Flower, Spirit Expulsion Cursing Seal, Life-Death Arch Gilded Intent
Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu arrived in the Mountainous World manifested by the Book of Earth.
Other than the two of them, many familiar faces were there as well, such as Ye Zhu and Yu Zhi.
They all helped to defend him against multiple forces back at the Chaos Fragment, and he had yet to find a chance to express his grat.i.tude.
After a brief conversation with them, he realized that they were exploring the Mountainous World on their own, so it was probably not a good time for him to interrupt them.
!!
“Let’s go.”
He and Lan Yu started their own exploration of the world.
The place was filled with strange but mystical fruits, and all kinds of treasures were within sight. Unfortunately, most of them were useless to Chu Kuangren at his current level, so he simply kept all of them for a rainy day.
After all, he was no longer alone. He had to take care of the entire Firmament Star and manage their resources.
“Hmm? What kind of Immortal Fruit is this?”
Chu Kuangren saw an Immortal tree while exploring. The tree had several red fruits hanging on the branches, and they released a strange aroma into the air.
When he sniffed the aroma, it somehow energized and refreshed his mind.
“Lil Ai, a.n.a.lyze this.”
“Yes…”
After a brief a.n.a.lysis, the fruit turned out to be one that could increase one’s soul energy.
“Increase one’s soul energy? Will it be useful to treat s.h.i.+ Ying’s injuries?”
“Report. s.h.i.+ Ying’s injuries aren’t caused by the strength of her soul. It’s the separation. If her soul is not gathered and concentrated, any soul-boosting methods would be useless.”
“Okay. I got it.” Chu Kuangren nodded.
Nevertheless, he took the fruits and planned to use them to increase his own soul energy.
After setting up restriction seals in the area, and with Lan Yu guarding him, he consumed them.
As soon as the fruit entered his stomach, a warm and refres.h.i.+ng stream of energy gushed into his mind and started to nourish his soul in the mind ocean.
Gradually, all three of his souls grew stronger.
A soul had eight realms as mentioned before — Normal Soul, Immortal Soul, True Consciousness, Gilded Soul, Desolation, Requiescence, Chaos, and Transcendence.
His soul realm had reached the Desolation realm, and his Soul Flower had broken through to the sixth grade.
After consuming the fruits, his soul energy received a boost, and the Soul Flower broke through to the eighth grade.
He was four grades away from achieving the twelfth grade.
He did not consume all the fruits though but kept a few for Lan Yu. With the help of the fruits, Lan Yu would be able to manifest her Soul Flower a lot easier.
“Out of three flowers in the Trinity Flower realm, the Immortal’s Core Flower, the Life’s Core Flower, and the Soul Flower, I have already manifested the two of them. I think it’s time for me to manifest the third and the last one,” Chu Kuangren muttered.
The Life’s Core Flower represented a cultivator’s life force. In common sense, the longer one’s life expectancy, the higher the grade of the manifested Life’s Core Flower.
Chu Kuangren had the Indestructible Body and was almost unkillable.
He wondered what kind of Life’s Core Flower would manifest under such amazing conditions. He was curious.
Without further ado, he opened the Fantasy Roulette and did a gacha roll.
“Congratulations, Host! You’ve won the G.o.d-tier prize, Spirit Expulsion Cursing Seal.”
“Huh?”
Chu Kuangren curiously tapped on his Inventory and saw three strange talisman seals laying inside.
The Spirit Expulsion Cursing Seal was a terrifying talisman seal.
As its name suggested, it could be used to expel or control a person’s soul. No one under the Embodier Realm could resist or escape the control of the talisman seal.
“This is interesting. I have three Spirit Expulsion Cursing Seals, which means I can control three Arch Gilded Immortals.” Chu Kuangren rubbed his chin.
He had no interest in common Arch Gilded Immortals. After all, the strength of the target was not as important as the person’s value.
“Interesting…”
He started to think of several suitable candidates to use the talisman seals on.
After keeping the Spirit Expulsion Cursing Seals away, he continued his casual exploration in the Mountainous World, looking for the world’s core.
Only by controlling the Mountainous World’s core could one control the Book of Earth.
However, the core was hidden well, and no one had found it until now.
Maybe the core would only appear during a certain time period.
Boom…
After traveling for a while, he heard noises of a fierce battle ahead of him.
As he went forward to have a look, he saw a woman blast a bunch of sky-prides away with a raise of her hand, blasting out tsunami-like Immortal’s Core energy at them.
The terrifying power made her resemble an Immortal Queen.
The woman was fighting the sky-prides over a stem of Immortal Herbs. Her power soon gave her the upper hand over the others.
“A bunch of trash trying to fight me?” The woman grunted coldly.
She was none other than the Great Arbiter Divine Maiden from the Eastern Sovereign Immortal Hall.
She was already an Arch Gilded Immortal, so common Prodigies and sky-prides were no longer her match. On top of her status as the Divine Maiden, she had access to a plethora of trump cards and techniques.
“This Immortal Herb can help increase the grade of my Immortal’s Core Flower. It can at least break through to fourth grade after I consume it!”
The Great Arbiter Divine Maiden was delighted.
However, just when she was about to search for a place to refine the Immortal Herb, someone stood in her way.
The person was also a woman with silver hair and armor. The scepter in her hand granted her a grand and righteous aura as if she was a Valkyrie.
“Lan Yu?!”
The Great Arbiter Divine Maiden narrowed her eyes at Lan Yu as she kept the Immortal Herb away. She asked coldly, “What’s wrong? Do you want this Immortal Herb as well? You will have to fight me for it.”
Her Immorta’s Core energy erupted, followed by a dense Arch Gilded Intent.
It was the Life-Death Arch Gilded Intent!
“Oh? Interesting,” a surprised voice said.
A blast of Immortal Sparks erupted in the air and shrouded the area instantly.
A white figure emerged from the blast, and when the Great Arbiter Divine Maiden had a good look at the person, her eyes widened in shock. Her Life-Death Arch Gilded Intent dispersed in an instant.
“F*ck! It’s him!”
The prestigious Divine Maiden could not help but curse when she saw Chu Kuangren.
Her beautiful eyes widened, and her face turned pale. She turned around and tried to run, but the area was already covered in silvery-white Daoist patterns.
The s.p.a.cetime Sealing Technique had sealed all her escape routes!
The Great Arbiter Divine Maiden fell into despair.
She thought that would be it for her.
Running into the grim reaper was the worst thing that could happen, especially with his grudge against the Immortal Hall. There was almost no way that she could escape alive.
The Great Arbiter Divine Maiden shut her eyes and waited for death to descend upon her.
However, after a while, the expected pain did not arrive.
She carefully opened her eyes and saw Chu Kuangren smiling at her.
“Are you not attacking?” he asked.
“Fighting you is courting death,” the Great Arbiter Divine Maiden said with despair in her tone.
“Do you really think I won’t kill you just because you’re not attacking?”
“Do whatever you want.”
“I can give you a chance. I’m standing here. If you can move me for even half a step, I’ll spare your life.”
As if his words were a silver lining to her, her eyes gleamed brightly as she said, “For real?”
“I never go back on my words.”
“Fine!”
Hope was ignited in her heart as Immortal’s Core energy gushed out like a geyser. Life-Death Arch Gilded Intent gathered at the tip of her finger and was shot at him.
“Arbitrary Art, Lifeless Finger!”
Countless Daoist patterns intertwined with the Life-Death Arch Gilded Intent and formed a ma.s.sive finger shadow that would be shot at Chu Kuangren.
That energy could crush planets and eliminate thousands of lives with ease.
Chu Kuangren stood on the spot with a smile. “It’s really the Life-Death Arch Gilded Intent.”
