Chapter 509: Zhen Yuan’s Three Treasures
The yin-yang divine flame that Feng Xue got from the wishing stone was superior to her current natal flame.
Looking at it, tiny flames appeared in her eyes and her lips subconsciously curled in a smile.
"This is good." She muttered and turned to Shen Xu.
"Master, can we see your Fusang tree?" She urged.
After all, the tree was a good perch for her new flame.
"Mmh." Shen Xu nodded and opened his box.
Inside was a miniature tree whose trunk looked like a twisted mess of several trees.
However, Shen Xu and the others were less concerned about its appearance and more about the fire qi that diffused in waves from the small tree.
"So comfortable." Feng Xue muttered and Shen Xu nodded in agreement.
"It feels like a warm bath."He said and quickly continued.
"I will ask Xiaoren to plant it." He said and summoned the little ginseng.
Soon after, Xiaoren took the tree and went to the fire area of the Chaos Flame Space.
"Remember to control your flame first before sending it to the tree." Shen Xu reminded and Feng Xue nodded .
Since everyone knew what the others had gotten, the attention soon shifted to Zhen Yuan.
"Ayuan..." Shen Xu urged and Zhen Yuan nodded before opening the first box.
With eager faces, everyone looked inside but soon frowned.
"What’s this?" The double asked, looking at a bean-sized seed that lay at the bottom of the box.
"It’s a black-hole core." Zhen Yuan revealed and the others couldn’t help but be surprised.
At the same time, they looked at the wooden box with shocked faces.
"This box is amazing. It can actually hold a black-hole core without being sucked in?!" Yang Shi observed and the others nodded.
"I have never heard of anything that can survive a black hole." Feng Xue said.
"The box should be made from a primordial wood but I don’t know which." Zhen Yuan said and shrugged.
"Ayuan, you have to be careful when handling this core." Shen Xu reminded in a solemn voice and Zhen Yuan smiled while rubbing the double’s hair.
"Don’t worry." He said.
For others, the black hole core was a death trap but for him, it was a treasure trove of laws.
After all, the core not only had space laws and gravity laws but also time laws among others.
’The black hole laws will deepen my understanding of space and gravity.’ He thought with a happy face.
After showing the core, Zhen Yuan closed the box and opened the next.
Inside was a small tree sapling and upon seeing it, Shen Xu burst into laughter.
"As expected." He muttered, looking at Zhen Yuan with an amused face.
"You actually got a bodhi tree sapling." He said, recalling how Zhen Yuan had off-handedly speculated that they may encounter the bodhi tree when they first got the bodhi fruits.
"This gift is very useful to me." Zhen Yuan said, feeling happy and relieved.
After all, his cultivation relied on comprehending laws and was fundamentally more difficult than ordinary practice.
With the bodhi tree, he could more easily comprehend laws to improve his cultivation and light the pillars in his dantian.
"We have all been struggling with the rootless colourful water lily petals. This bodhi tree is just right to induce enlightenment." Feng Xue said and the others nodded in agreement.
After handing over the tree to Xiaoren for planting, Zhen Yuan opened the third box.
At a glance, the box contained a transparent jade bottle , filled with colourful liquid.
"This is..." Yang Shi gasped with an excited face.
"The water from the river of time." Zhen Yuan said and Shen Xu couldn’t help but be shocked.
"Ayuan." He called and Zhen Yuan nodded.
[I originally planned to comprehend one of the less complex heavenly laws but it seems that fate has other plans.] He said with a resigned face.
[Is the water enough?] Shen Xu asked and Zhen Yuan nodded before speaking.
[I not only have the water but also the black hole core, the treasures from the zodiac golden rooster, and the time laws in the chaos flame space. They should be enough.] He said.
Shen Xu nodded when he heard this.
"I want to upgrade the space while we are enlightening in the temple of chants." He suddenly said and Feng Xue frowned.
"Can it upgrade while the kids and the others are still inside?" She asked.
"Don’t worry. Ayuan and I have a way." Shen Xu said.
Shen Xu and and Zhen Yuan had pondered this matter over the years.
After all, the Tianxuan sect had ways of tracking the triplets and Mo Ling when they were out of the space.
In the end, the two worked hard and finally refined several inscribed bracelets.
As long as the triplets and Mo Ling wore the bracelets, the Tianxuan sect and even divination masters would not be able to track them.
Most importantly, the bracelets could confuse people’s minds, hence the group could wear them to hide their identity without disguising themselves.
After listening to the explanation, Feng Xue nodded and sighed in relief.
"That’s good." She said, feeling relieved because the triplets and Mo Ling also needed to enter the temple of chants.
"How long will the upgrade take?" Yang Shi asked but Shen Xu shook his head with a helpless expression.
"I intend to feed the space with several treasures and trillions of spirit stones. I expect that the upgrade will take awhile." He said, unable to estimate a more exact time.
After that, the group stayed in the space for one real year.
During that time, everyone did their own thing but no one retreated.
After all, time was short and not only couldn’t they get into the right state of mind but they also didn’t want to retreat because they hadn’t fully rested after the previous seclusion.
On this day, Shen Xu peeked outside the space and nodded.
"There is no one outside. We can leave." He said and the others immediately agreed.
Soon after, the group left the space, boarded a level seven flying ship and headed towards the temple of chants.
However, the ship maintained a steady pace and didn’t rush.
On one hand, travelling and experiencing life was a way of cultivation and on the other, they had more time since they had already entrusted the auction to Wu Ziyan and Lu Yang.
During their travel, the group often stayed at towns, visited markets and restaurants, and even took some bounty missions.
Time passed and before they knew it, one hundred years had flown by before they reached the entrance of the temple of chants.
The temple of chants was open to the public.
However, only sect and major factions’ cultivators could access the core area.
Fortunately, Shen Xu and the others had killed several air bandits and had accumulated many identity tokens that could now be used to buy places in the core area.
