Infinite Comprehension by Taking In Disciples: Martial Uncle, Please Ascend!-Chapter 414 - 328 World Divine Tree Main Trunk_2
Li Cheng stepped forward, suppressing the excitement in his heart, surely the item before him was resonating with that segment of the Divine Wood, meaning, the item before him was related to the World Divine Tree!
How could one not be excited about something related to the World Divine Tree?
"How did you get here? You absorb the Chaos Qi much slower than I do!" Ao Jiugai said irritably.
Li Cheng shook his head, "Domain!"
The next second, Li Cheng activated his Domain with all his might, rapidly expanding it and pushing away the Chaos Qi!
Before their eyes, the thing gradually revealed itself!
The Domain expanded ten thousand miles forward, completely pushing away the Chaos Qi within this range, and what came into view was not some wall, but clearly a semi-circular platform!
"We still can't tell what it is, keep expanding your Domain!" urged Ao Jiugai.
Li Cheng nodded and pushed his Domain to expand to ninety thousand miles, finally revealing the full figure of the object!
In front of them stood a white jade-like circular platform spanning ninety thousand miles, with its edges made of emerald-like barriers, a kilometer thick!
Li Cheng's eyes widened, "This is... the World Divine Tree!"
Ao Jiugai looked at Li Cheng with puzzlement, "It looks more like a tree stump that has been cut off flush with the ground, but how can you tell it's the World Divine Tree? There's no power emanating from it, and it seems not to be made of wood, but rather of jade."
"Make no mistake, this is indeed the World Divine Tree that has been cut off flush with the ground. The reason it looks like jade is that this outer layer of jade was formed by the Divine Qi that scattered when the World Divine Tree was cut!"
As he spoke, Li Cheng flew onto the platform. This ninety thousand miles wide platform was the trunk of the World Divine Tree at its lowest part, near the roots.
Li Cheng placed both hands on the ground and operated the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, immediately a boundless force surged into his body, quickly raising his Cultivation. In a few breaths, he had stepped into the mid-stage of the Divine King Realm!
Noticing Li Cheng's transformation, Ao Jiugai's eyes bulged, "This is crazy, is the power within it even more ferocious than the Original Divine Qi I gave you?"
Li Cheng stopped absorbing and looked at Ao Jiugai in shock, "I was wrong!"
"Oh? It's not the World Divine Tree?"
Li Cheng shook his head, "It's the World Divine Tree all right, but I was wrong about the jade layer!"
"This jade layer is not formed by the condensed life energy after it was cut, but evolved from a Heart of Divine Tree!"
"This is the World Divine Tree's self-protection mechanism. After being cut, a Heart of Divine Tree transformed into jade to protect this tree stump, waiting for life to rejuvenate!"
At this, Li Cheng's astonishment deepened. It meant there was still a chance for the World Divine Tree to regain its vitality!
Ao Jiugai was stunned at first, but his eyes gradually widened as well, "The World Divine Tree regaining its vitality?"
Li Cheng nodded vigorously, "Exactly!"
The main trunk of the World Divine Tree was ninety thousand miles in diameter. What immense life force would it need to regain vitality?
Ao Jiugai felt it was impossible.
But seeing Li Cheng so certain, he inexplicably believed it.
Li Cheng retracted his Domain and said, "I'm going to find out about the Divine World, I've decided that, once I'm ready, I will use this as the foundation to construct my God Realm!"
Ao Jiugai pondered, "With your current Cultivation, planning on the World Divine Tree, it might take tens of millions of years to be successful. I think you should focus on advancing your Cultivation first."
"Just a few breaths ago, you advanced a Minor realm, and it might not take many days to step into the Divine Emperor Realm, then spend some time stepping into the Divine Venerable Realm. With this as a basis, the prospects of constructing a God Realm are much greater."
Li Cheng nodded, "Exactly, that's why I said I'll wait until I'm ready."
His Divine Soul was powerful, and he had never encountered any bottleneck, everything had progressed naturally.
Li Cheng believed that stepping into the Divine Venerable Realm would also be without any bottleneck. Although he didn't know where this confidence came from, he just felt it!
Moreover, Li Cheng vaguely felt, once he stepped into the Divine Venerable Realm, the secrets hidden in his soul would slowly surface.
With that thought, Li Cheng sat down cross-legged and without hesitation began absorbing the power contained within this layer of jade again.
This was after all the transformation of a Heart of Divine Tree, the power within it could cultivate several Divine Venerables without any issue.
Seeing Li Cheng enter the state of Cultivation, Ao Jiugai secretly clicked his tongue, "What great fortune, it feels as if it was all prepared just for him..."
"Hmm? Could it be that it was actually prepared by some powerhouse specifically for Li Cheng?" Ao Jiugai suddenly thought of this alarming possibility.
If some powerhouse had prepared these things for Li Cheng, then Li Cheng's background might be very significant!
Blunt Empty Residence was left to Li Cheng by the Blunt Empty Venerable, but even the Blunt Empty Venerable himself didn't know exactly what was inside, which suggested that it might have been handed over to Li Cheng through the Venerable's intervention!
With this thought, Ao Jiugai quickly suppressed these ideas, not daring to contemplate further.
"Oh well, I'll find out one day. I'd better stop thinking about it and focus on developing this expanse of Chaos," he said to himself.
Ao Jiugai continued to busy himself. freēnovelkiss.com
As time passed day by day, Li Cheng underestimated his need for Divine Qi during his breakthrough into the realm. The protective layer formed by the Heart of Divine Tree was entirely absorbed by Li Cheng, yet his cultivation had only just entered the Divine Emperor Realm.
According to Li Cheng's previous estimates, the power contained within this layer of jade-like substance should have been sufficient to cultivate several Divine Venerables.
But during the refining process, Li Cheng found that most of the power in this layer returned to the World Divine Tree!
Now, the jade-like substance had disappeared, revealing the World Divine Tree in its original form, with dense patterns and a heavy, majestic aura just like that segment of Divine Wood.
Li Cheng knocked on the wooden floor, sensing that it still contained many Hearts of Divine Tree, yet he was completely unable to extract them.
"Why the long face?" Ao Jiugai flew in and said cheerfully.
Li Cheng glanced at him and said, "You said I'd enter the Divine Emperor Realm in a few days, but it turned out to be ten years!"
For those ten years, Li Cheng kept moving from place to place to refine the outer jade-like layer of the World Divine Tree, which took much longer than the few days that Ao Jiugai had mentioned.
Moreover, ever since he reached the middle phase of the Divine King Realm, the flow of time in Blunt Empty Residence had synchronized with the outside world, with ten years having passed outside as well.
"Ten years from becoming a Divine King to a Divine Emperor and you're not satisfied? Do you realize that even for other talented cultivators it takes at least several million years?" Ao Jiugai said irritably.
Li Cheng waved his hand, his cultivation was only at the early stage of the Divine Emperor Realm, and constructing a Domain in the Divine World was far too difficult!
"I need to find another way to advance my cultivation. It's a pity I can't extract a Heart of Divine Tree," Li Cheng remarked as he stood up and left Blunt Empty Residence.
Upon leaving Blunt Empty Residence, Li Cheng saw Ninety Thousand Miles whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Master Li!" Ninety Thousand Miles greeted him with joy and respect.
Li Cheng smiled, "Laojiu, it's been a while!"
Ninety Thousand Miles was confused, had it really been that long? Just a few decades, right?
Isn't it common for a retreat to last tens of thousands of years?
"Master Li, a few days ago the Mansion Venerable mentioned he had news about your disciple, and he asked that you visit him once you came out of seclusion," Ninety Thousand Miles said.
Oh?
Li Cheng's eyes brightened. The Blunt Empty Venerable had news of Qi Jingtian?
But almost immediately, Li Cheng's eyes filled with worry. Given the Venerable's status, if he had news of Qi Jingtian, he could have easily brought him to the Land Puppet Mansion.
The fact that this hadn't happened likely meant that things were complicated!
Without hesitation, Li Cheng took out the Mansion Venerable Order to inquire about the Venerable's whereabouts.
It wasn't long before the Blunt Empty Venerable rushed over personally.
"Blunt Empty Uncle-Master!" Li Cheng greeted with a bow.
The Blunt Empty Venerable looked astonished. "You've broken through an entire Major Realm in just ten years?"
The Venerable couldn't help but be shocked; such a speed of cultivation was nearly inconceivable!
Even consuming King Grade Divine King Pills daily, it wouldn't be possible to enter the Divine Emperor Realm in just ten years.
Li Cheng chuckled awkwardly and changed the subject, "I heard Uncle-Master has news about my disciple Qi Jingtian?"
The Blunt Empty Venerable came back to his senses and shook his head, "You should be prepared. The news I've received about the boy is not promising."
Li Cheng had already guessed that the situation was serious and nodded slightly, "Please inform me, Uncle-Master!"
The Blunt Empty Venerable waved his hand and a light screen appeared, displaying a map of the Divine Realm.
He pointed to an area north of the Land Puppet Mansion and said, "You know this place, right?"
"The Emperor's Perishing No Return Domain, one of the most perilous forbidden territories in the Divine Realm!" Li Cheng affirmed.
His tone shifted as he continued, "My disciple went there?"
