Chapter 655: Immortal Demonic Realm's True Immortal
"It's been quite some time, and it seems your temper has improved significantly."
Chu Ning spoke with a light laugh, a hint of surprise in his tone, regardless of whether his companion understood him or not.
He noticed that although the giant tree was swaying violently, it didn't launch a direct attack on him as it had done before.
Instead, it seemed to be holding back.
Unbeknownst to Chu Ning, the Ice Crystal Tree, now possessing some level of consciousness, was even more astonished by his cultivation aura.
The tree could sense that Chu Ning's cultivation had risen to a level comparable to its own.
Back when Chu Ning was only at the late-stage Nascent Soul, he had severely injured the tree.
Now that Chu Ning had broken through, the Ice Crystal Tree, with its newfound consciousness, naturally refrained from launching an attack.
After waiting for a while and seeing that the tree wasn't reacting excessively, Chu Ning began to speculate.
"This tree seems to be wary of me, as if it has sensed my strength."
Chu Ning muttered to himself.
He took out a piece of Ice Crystal Tree leaf from his Storage Pouch and waved it at the tree.
"Tree companion, I only wish to borrow some of your leaves. Please grant me this favor."
After saying this, Chu Ning held up the leaf and looked at the tree.
Chu Ning wasn't one to seek conflict; if he could obtain what he wanted without fighting, that would be preferable.
But after coming here three times, he was certain that the Ice Crystal Tree couldn't understand his words.
So, Chu Ning wasn't sure if the tree could comprehend his intentions.
And even if it did, would it be willing to give him the leaves?
Otherwise, he might have to take action.
At that moment, Chu Ning noticed that the Ice Crystal Tree had stopped swaying, as if it had fallen silent.
The next moment, the tree began to shake again.
"Ding ding dang!"
Accompanied by a crisp clattering sound, hundreds of Ice Crystal Tree leaves shot towards Chu Ning.
It seemed to be saying, "Take them if you dare."
Seeing this, Chu Ning smiled slightly.
With the fourth layer of the Chaos Immortal Art, the Spatial Power fluctuated violently, and using the Void Secret Technique, he instantly formed a small pocket dimension in front of him.
The Ice Crystal Tree leaves flew into this space and were immediately trapped.
The Spatial Power also completely neutralized the attacking force from the tree leaves.
The next moment, as Chu Ning removed the spatial technique, all the Ice Crystal Tree leaves became visible again.
The Ice Crystal Tree, witnessing this, stopped swaying once more, seemingly falling back into silence.
It didn't use its massive roots to attack either.
Seeing this, Chu Ning didn't press further; he smiled slightly and turned to leave.
The ice cave returned to its quiet state.
"This Ice Crystal Tree seems to have gained some consciousness, but it's not like a cultivator or a spirit beast, so I can't communicate with it through divine perception."
Back in the Treasure Pavilion, Chu Ning took out a piece of Ice Crystal Tree leaf and spoke thoughtfully.
Regarding the Ice Crystal Tree, he could almost certainly conclude that it was similar to the Ten Thousand Dharmas Fragrance he had seen in the Sky Palace and the Ten Thousand Spells Fruit he had encountered in the Cloud Soaring Alliance's forbidden grounds—both were objects from the Immortal Demonic Realm.
Holding several hundred Ice Crystal Tree leaves in his hand, in addition to the few hundred he already had, Chu Ning valued these leaves because they contained Primordial Energy, not just Spirit Energy, so he had rarely used them before.
These leaves would be sufficient for Chu Ning's cultivation needs for quite some time.
However, Spiritless Island lacked any trace of Spirit Energy, so Chu Ning took many more treasures from the Treasure Pavilion.
Some of these treasures could be directly refined for cultivation.
Others would be better used to refine into pills.
Over the next few days, Chu Ning devoted himself to pill refinement in the Longkong Pavilion.
He not only prepared enough pills for himself but also for Cen Zijin and Xi Wenxia.
As for Bai Ling and the Ice Phoenix, these Heaven and Earth Spirit Beasts rarely consumed pills, and both had treasures for cultivation.
Moreover, since they cultivated Ice-attributed techniques, giving them a few Ice Crystal Tree leaves would be a significant help.
The two Thunderclap Eagles, on the other hand, had fewer treasures for cultivation.
However, over the past two hundred years, while Chu Ning cultivated, the eagles had been outside, cultivating and searching for various resources, so Chu Ning didn't need to worry too much about them.
As for the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon, it had been guarding the Longkong Pavilion for the past two centuries.
It had acquired numerous resources related to Earth attributes.
Once everything was prepared, Chu Ning led Cen Zijin and Xi Wenxia to Spiritless Island using the Teleportation Array.
As for Bai Ling and Bing Feng, they were directly placed into the Spirit Beast Bag.
When Chu Ning first arrived at Spiritless Island, he was limited by the lack of suitable materials in his possession.
Even if the Teleportation Array was repaired, it could only transport one person.
This time, however, there were no more restrictions.
Chu Ning teleported into the stone house in the valley and summoned Bing Feng, Bai Ling, and the Thunderclap Eagle from the Spirit Beast Bag.
"Is this Spiritless Island?"
Cen Zijin, Bai Ling, the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon, and Bing Feng were all experiencing this place for the first time, feeling their magical energy completely suppressed, and even their divine perception was unable to be utilized.
They were all greatly astonished.
Although they had already heard some descriptions from Chu Ning and Bai Ling, the actual experience was entirely different.
Among them, Bing Feng's face showed the most unusual expression.
Although Cen Zijin and Xi Wenxia were visiting Spiritless Island for the first time, they had been cultivating Primal Energy under Chu Ning's guidance for these years.
Bing Feng, on the other hand, was completely new to Primal Energy, and this feeling of being unable to resist made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
After they had adjusted to the environment, Chu Ning led everyone out of the stone house.
Even though several years had passed, the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle was still lying in the same spot where Chu Ning had left it, as if it hadn't moved at all during these years.
"Cangxuan Spirit Turtle!"
Upon seeing the old turtle, Chu Ning hadn't even opened his mouth when Bing Feng couldn't help but exclaim.
The Cangxuan Spirit Turtle from the Void Abyss had been known as the Northern Cold's first Spirit Beast for nearly ten thousand years.
It was extremely famous in the Northern Cold Region.
Previously, there had been rumors that the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle followed Chu Ning, but Bing Feng had never seen it.
Unexpectedly, she met it here.
The old turtle also sensed the arrival of Chu Ning and the others, and at this moment, it lifted its turtle head.
Its slightly chaotic eyes glanced at them, and it spoke in a human language.
"Chu, you've returned, and you've brought so many companions. Hehe, this Spiritless Island is about to become lively."
As it spoke, the old turtle's body shimmered, and it instantly transformed into an old man.
"Old Turtle, I've brought Cen Zijin and the others."
Chu Ning introduced Cen Zijin and the others to the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle.
Since Cen Zijin and the others' cultivation levels were concealed due to the influence of Primal Energy, Chu Ning also took the opportunity to mention their cultivation realms.
When it came to Bing Feng, upon hearing that she was about to enter the Demigod Realm, the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle couldn't help but glance at her.
"When I was young, the North Phoenix was the Northern Cold's first Spirit Beast. Your ancestor was also a Divine Transformation-level existence back then.
I heard that they ascended to the upper realm with the Divine Transformation Cultivators of the Void Abyss. Since you, Bing Feng, are about to enter the Demigod Realm, you've come to the right place with Chu. Good, good, let's exchange more in the future!"
After hearing this, Bing Feng politely cupped her hands and said, "Senior Turtle, my ancestors did indeed have Divine Transformation Cultivators, but that was before the great change in this realm.
Those experiences are of little help to the current situation in this realm.
I've only just started cultivating alongside my master, and I still need guidance from seniors like you in the future."
Upon hearing Bing Feng's words, a hint of surprise flashed in the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle's eyes.
He had originally thought that Bing Feng had come here to cultivate, just like him, and considered himself and Chu Ning as fellow cultivators.
However, he never expected that Bing Feng had already become Chu Ning's Contracted Spirit Beast.
He immediately laughed and said, "Chu, you truly have great blessings. So many Heaven and Earth Spirit Beasts have gathered around you."
As he spoke, the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle's gaze also swept across the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon, Bai Ling, and Bing Feng.
"Fellow companions, your opportunities are not shallow, being able to follow Chu.
If this realm undergoes another great change in the future, you will undoubtedly be the luckiest group of people."
After the initial greetings, everyone became more familiar with each other.
Although there were only a few stone houses in the valley, thankfully, they were spacious.
Cen Zijin immediately took out some items from her Storage Pouch and built a few wooden houses.
At this moment, the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle directly stopped Chu Ning, asking expectantly, "Chu, did you have any gains during your trip?"
Chu Ning nodded slightly.
Then, he stretched out his hands, and Primal Energy immediately gathered towards them.
The Cangxuan Spirit Turtle's gaze fixed on Chu Ning's hands.
He knew that Chu Ning must have a purpose for this action.
Soon, two balls of Primal Energy gathered in Chu Ning's hands.
After all, the Cangxuan Spirit Turtle had cultivated Primal Energy for many years, and after a brief sensing, a puzzled expression appeared on his face as he said, "These seem to be Primal Energy, but the feeling it gives me is slightly different.
Chu Ning didn't speak directly, but instead waved his hands, and two streams of Primal Energy shot out, each landing on two ordinary plants beside him.
The next moment, one of the plants seemed to suddenly receive a great boost.
Within a short time, it visibly grew an inch taller.
Meanwhile, the other plant withered rapidly, even rotting away to nothingness.
"This..."
Cangxuan Spirit Turtle's face flashed with surprise at the sight.
Chu Ning explained, "If I haven't sensed incorrectly, the Primal Energy is formed by the fusion of two forces: growth and destruction."
"Growth and destruction, both are Primal Energy?"
Cangxuan Spirit Turtle, upon hearing Chu Ning's words, was taken aback and began to ponder deeply.
Soon after, the Primal Energy surrounding Cangxuan Spirit Turtle began to fluctuate.
But after a while, he shook his head, saying, "I still can't sense two different forces within it.
It seems I need to cultivate for some more time. Now, even incorporating Primal Energy into my body is still a work in progress."
As he spoke, Cangxuan Spirit Turtle left on his own and returned to his original spot, resuming his turtle form and lying down quietly.
Chu Ning didn't offer further explanations.
He had originally wanted to tell Cangxuan Spirit Turtle that if he truly wanted to experience it, he could go to Snow Mist Valley.
However, after sensing the fluctuation of Primal Energy from Cangxuan Spirit Turtle, Chu Ning could also feel that Cangxuan Spirit Turtle's understanding and cultivation of Primal Energy still had a long way to go.
Indeed, it wasn't time yet to go and comprehend the distinction of such power.
He turned and left immediately.
First, he would settle things with Cen Zijin, Xi Wenxia, and several Spirit Beasts.
And Ice Phoenix had never come into contact with Primal Energy before, so it was necessary for Chu Ning to give her a general explanation.
As Chu Ning and his group cultivated on Spiritless Island, far away in the Sky Curtain Continent, a blue-robed elder was cultivating in a cave dwelling, and this person was none other than the highest cultivator in Sea God Palace.
In the Sky Curtain Continent, he was on par with Lingfeng Venerable of Tianyi Sect, Mingmo of Wanmo Sect, and Mosha God Lord of Mosha Sect.
At this moment, this top cultivator of the Sky Curtain Continent stood up, his face flashing with a peculiar expression.
There was a mix of excitement, anticipation, curiosity, and even fear.
Such an expression on the face of a top-level cultivator was indeed odd.
The next moment, an ancient lamp appeared in his hand.
The lamp's body was carved with intricate cloud patterns, and within, a white wick could be vaguely seen.
Without any apparent action, as the lamp floated forward, the wick automatically lit up with a faint flame.
T
He curiously glanced at the figure, which was no different from other cultivators, with a middle-aged face, wearing a crown, and bowed respectfully.
"Greetings, Senior!"
"Are you the current leader of Sea God Palace?"
T
S
"
"Your talent is not bad. If it weren't for the lack of Yuan Qi and the presence of only Ling Qi in your realm, you should have already become a true Nascent Soul Cultivator."
The middle-aged man spoke calmly once more.
"Rest assured, after ten thousand years, I've taken the initiative to contact you using a projection of my clone.
It's not difficult for you to become a true Nascent Soul Cultivator."
M
He quickly responded, "Thank you, Senior. If there's anything I can do for you, please don't hesitate to command me."
"Do you know where the Immortal Seeds are?"
"Reporting to Senior, over two hundred years ago, I once discovered traces of the Immortal Seeds, but later, they shattered and escaped through the void."
A
"The body of the Immortal Seeds was, long ago, subjected to a sealing technique by us and the Tianmo Clan using secret methods. It's impossible for it to escape through shattering the void unless aided by other cultivators."
It seems in your realm, there are now cultivators who have come into contact with the Immortal Seeds, and even gained their acknowledgment."
"There are cultivators who have come into contact with the Immortal Seeds!"
