Chapter 1367: Chapter 241: Repairing the Boundary Stele (Part 2)

"Now I’m still in the Fourth Heaven..."

Xie Xuanyi roughly calculated.

The cultivation in the Yang God Realm is even harder than before, and I don’t know how long it will take to ascend to the Heavenly Human Realm.

"This [Boundary Stele] repair is not urgent, it can be postponed slightly."

With this thought set.

Xie Xuanyi gave birth to another idea.

"Is it possible..."

"To repair the Boundary Stele, not needing the Undying Spring?"

The Ancient Realm was shattered into silent annihilation, filled with Death Qi.

Xie Xuanyi’s first thought was to use the Undying Spring for quick repair of dead objects.

Presumably, Cui Zhen thought the same.

However...

Since these branches and leaves are just asking me for "nourishment," why not try other things?

After pondering for a moment, Xie Xuanyi sent forth a strand of Taoist Intent.

He chose the [Life Dao Intent].

After Harmonization, the transformation in his [Life Dao] was earth-shaking!

"Sizzle!"

This time... the Flowing Fire Green Leaves emitted a satisfied, delightful sound, yet one strand of Taoist Intent clearly did not suffice.

"Taoist Intent can also become nourishment!"

Xie Xuanyi’s eyes lit up.

He continued to send out [Life Dao Intent], this Flowing Fire Green Leaf consumed ten strands of Taoist Intent before starting to dance in the void...

"Ten strands of [Life Dao Intent] are equivalent to a small strand of Undying Spring Water Vapor."

Xie Xuanyi was somewhat regretful, as the speed of breaking the Chaotic Mist was much slower than before.

This is both good news and bad news.

Since the Immortal Tree is willing to accept his Taoist Intent...

Then, henceforth, as long as he continues to send Taoist Intent into the [Boundary Stele], it will grow.

Only, this speed is truly too slow.

The regeneration speed of cultivating Taoist Intent is faster than the Undying Spring, but this ten-to-one consumption... Xie Xuanyi is really a bit unable to accept.

"Perhaps it’s because my current realm is too low."

Xie Xuanyi pondered: "If I ascend further... the effect that Taoist Intent can play should be better..."

After all, this is the creation of the Heavenly Human Realm.

The Taoist Intent of the Fourth Heaven of the Yang God is still not thick enough.

"Let’s try the [Path of Destruction]..."

Xie Xuanyi’s fingertips gathered Evil Qi, sending out a strand of Taoist Intent again.

Only this time.

The [Path of Destruction] was directly rejected by the green leaves.

The green leaves surrounding him, like hungry infants, retreated instantly when the dark Taoist Intent was sent out... they did not like this strand of Taoist Intent.

"The Immortal Tree rejected the [Path of Destruction]..."

This result was not unexpected.

The Immortal Tree is a Holy Object of Great Success for the Life Dao, it naturally likes the [Undying Spring], as well as the [Life Dao Intent].

Given this, it’s perfectly logical to dislike the [Path of Destruction].

"What if I combine the two strands of Taoist Intent?"

Xie Xuanyi once more outputted Taoist Intent, this time he directly performed Divine Skills [Dao Shengyi] on the Immortal Tree.

The Life and Death Taoist Intent entwined in the Divine Sea.

Xie Xuanyi directly emitted a gray streak of light.

This time...

The Immortal Tree did not refuse, a long Flowing Fire branch clung over and swallowed the Life and Death Taoist Intent of [Dao Shengyi]

Void fog shattered, the Flowing Fire branches and leaves danced wildly.

"The efficiency of feeding with Taoist Intent greatly improved."

Xie Xuanyi’s eyes shone, using the Taoist Intent after Harmonization, only three strands are needed to achieve the previous effect.

In this way.

He seemed to have found a "shortcut" that was not really a "shortcut."

Repairing the [Boundary Stele], no matter what, requires a large amount of resources...but the Taoist Intent after Harmonization has an excellent regenerative effect on the Immortal Tree!

"Great."

Xie Xuanyi struck while the iron was hot, testing some other things.

Like...sending out Divine Thought.

Or, sending out Primordial Energy.

Or sending out some consumable Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, like Hundred-year-old Ganoderma, or Elixirs containing Primordial Energy.

All these methods were rejected by the Immortal Tree.

The conditions for repairing the [Boundary Stele] were stricter than imagined.

Even with the visualization map of the [Great Creation Technique], in building the bridge, the Immortal Tree only accepted [Undying Spring], as well as top-tier Taoist Intent.

"What a pity..."

After a moment.

Xie Xuanyi concluded, although the [Immortal Tree] inside the Primordial Swallowing Sacred Realm was almost starving, it still did not stop being picky.

He sent out ten percent of the Life and Death Taoist Intent.

Barely allowing this ancient tree to emit a faint vitality.

After sending out these Daoist intents, seven or eight branches were revitalized, flickering with flowing fire, like lanterns burning long, thus illuminating the area around the ancient tree, approximately restoring about five miles of light.

Xie Xuanyi estimated that the range of this Ancient Realm shrouded in chaotic mist extended to at least three thousand miles.

And that’s a conservative estimate...

The actual territory would only be larger than this!

"The resurgence of the Ancient Realm should mean all the branches revitalize, and the mist over the entire realm completely shatters."

Xie Xuanyi contemplated silently in his heart.

This requires an extremely vast Daoist intent, like an ocean or abyss...

"To accelerate the resurgence of the Ancient Realm, the best way should be to raise one’s realm."

Xie Xuanyi had a headache.

The threshold to repair the Boundary Stele is too high.

A cultivator in the Yin God Realm simply isn’t qualified to transmit Daoist intent.

Yang God Realm, how difficult is it to advance?

"Perhaps... continuing to comprehend the Great Creation Technique could also accelerate the resurgence of the Ancient Realm?"

Cui Zhen said there are a total of nineteen visualization maps in the Ultimate Poison Sacred Realm.

This is just the first map.

If one continues to comprehend, perhaps the resurgence of the Ancient Realm might speed up?

...

...

"Hoo..."

Xie Xuanyi exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.

After trying many methods, his consciousness finally withdrew from the chaotic mist of the Primordial Swallowing Sacred Realm.

The candle flame on the stone wall was still burning, but it was very weak.

Over by the ice bed, the handsome Great Demon, seemingly in a false sleep, immediately woke up when Xie Xuanyi withdrew from meditation.

"How did it go?"

Cui Zhen quickly asked.

He naturally wasn’t concerned about Xie Xuanyi.

This kid, so tricky, clearly watched for half a day without any clues, but with one reminder... he entered meditation.

Could it be that he really gained enlightenment?!

"Not much."

Xie Xuanyi deliberately put on a stern face and said coldly, "What kind of visualization map is this really? What phoenix?"

Receiving this reply, Cui Zhen’s expression noticeably changed, becoming much more relaxed.

"You didn’t see anything?"

Cui Zhen laughed lightly, "Outside, a full seven days have passed..."

"Seven days? It’s been that long?"

Xie Xuanyi was somewhat astonished.

This was the first time in his life that he spent so much time within a single visualization map.

To him, seven days seemed like a blink of an eye, a flash that passed by.

"Isn’t that so?"

Cui Zhen pretended to comfort him, "After all, you are a Sword Cultivator. It’s understandable if you don’t understand this Great Creation Technique’s visualization map... Should I switch you to another one, perhaps your talent differs from others, and switching might work better for you?"

"These visualization maps can be switched?"

Xie Xuanyi scoffed with a mocking smile.

"Do you think I’m lying? With other visualization maps, naturally not. But this Great Creation Technique is indeed different."

Cui Zhen sat up straight and said sincerely, "When I refined this Ultimate Poison Sacred Realm, I received a warning from the realm’s master... if one map cannot be comprehended, perhaps try another. The difficulty of these nineteen visualization maps gradually increases with the number of maps comprehended."

"Oh?"

Xie Xuanyi’s eyes brightened.

One must admit, the creator of this Great Creation Technique was extremely wise.

Obviously.

The master of the Ultimate Poison Sacred Realm had foreseen from the beginning that his successor might not be able to fully comprehend all the visualization maps.

Such a method.

Could allow the inheritance to be preserved to the greatest extent.

However... judging from the current situation, the worries of the Ultimate Poison Sacred Realm’s master seemed purely unnecessary.

A prodigy like Cui Zhen had received his inheritance, and it was only a matter of time before he deciphered all nineteen maps.

If born in the prosperous times a thousand years ago, purely in terms of cultivation realm, Cui Zhen’s achievements might surpass even that of the realm’s master.

"I feel something’s not right..."

Cui Zhen suddenly frowned and asked suspiciously, "Kid, did you secretly comprehend it and are intentionally deceiving me?"

"How is that possible... Am I such a person?"

Xie Xuanyi shrugged, raising three fingers, with a half-smile, "If Brother Cui doesn’t believe it, I can swear by my Divine Soul, that just now, in that visualization map, I didn’t see even a bit of a phoenix shadow."

"Stop it, stop it."

Cui Zhen hurriedly waved his hand, "It’s such a trivial matter, is there a need to swear by your Divine Soul?"

As he spoke, he used his Divine Sea to introduce the second map.

Cui Zhen wasn’t the type to be stingy.

This Great Creation Technique, whether Xie Xuanyi comprehends it or not, is Xie Xuanyi’s business. Regardless, he would release these visualization maps...

It’s just that.

At this moment, the inner monologue of the handsome Great Demon was still filled with doubts.

Why even though the man named Xie was willing to swear by his Divine Sea, the words he previously said, he still didn’t believe any of it?
