As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1302
Chapter 1302 Immortal World Spirit Vein
After a while, Xiao Chen tried to reach the top of the abyss valley again. When he approached this time, there was also an extremely powerful force pushing towards him. This time, it was even more ferocious than before.
“Be careful, brat. I think this is probably a restriction laid down by someone with some ability. It was forcefully smashed into ashes and dissipated into ashes.”
At this moment, Gu Mo’s voice entered his divine sea. Xiao Chen stopped and pondered for a moment. Then, he sent back to his divine sense, “Can you think of a way to break it?”
“Hmph …”
The Bone Demon snorted coldly and said, “If …”
“Alright.”
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and interrupted him. Then, he used his divine sense to investigate. He thought that no matter how powerful the restriction was, there must be a flaw in it.
However, this restriction didn’t seem as simple as he thought. Even if he didn’t go over, even if he used his divine sense to probe from afar, the sealed restriction would actually be able to defend itself.
Breaking this restriction was not an easy task. Xiao Chen couldn’t help but think of the “ghost mist” that was one of the six peerless ancient profound weapons. It was rumored that the ghost mist was born in the darkness and could break through all restrictions in the world. This was something Di Gu couldn’t compare to.
Right now, he didn’t have any ghost mist in his hands, only Di Gu. It was impossible for him to use Di Gu to forcefully break through the restrictions of the Immortal Dimension, right? If it caused Storm Spiritual Energy, that would not be good. He could feel that Spiritual Energy was very strong below the Abyss Valley. If it caused Storm Spiritual Energy, he might have to borrow Dugu Tianxia’s Fiendgod Body again.
Right at this moment, two auras suddenly came from afar. At this moment, Gu Mo’s voice also entered his divine sea. “Brat, you’ve alerted the people here. Don’t alarm them. Quickly leave.”
Xiao Chen knew that this place was no longer a human world. Even with Dugu Tianxia’s Fiendgod Body, it was impossible for him to walk horizontally. Without any hesitation, he instantly unfolded the Ling Xian Step and hid behind a distant mountain peak.
At the same time, he had completely restrained his aura. Unless he had the same divine sense as him, or had an extremely high cultivation base, it would be very difficult to find him nearby.
“Someone just came?”
Soon, two figures flew over from the sky. Strangely, when Xiao Chen approached the valley, he was immediately pushed back by a mysterious restriction. At this moment, the two of them seemed to be able to fly freely above the valley without any restrictions.
“He didn’t leave any aura behind. This person … has some abilities.”
Both of them were white-haired old men. They wore cyan cloud-patterned daoist robes, held a whisk in their hands, and stepped on clouds and mist. They looked like immortals from the Heaven Realm. An indescribable immortal style and dao bones resembled the immortals in the painting.
“En … it seems that he has already left.”
The old man on the left looked down at the abyss valley and pondered for a moment. Then, he said with a frown, “Could it be that he was planning to use his spirit veins? He is quite courageous, but fortunately, he has Yun Zhongjun’s magic power to protect him. Otherwise, someone would have broken the restriction here just now …”
“Mm …”
Another old man nodded and said, “Recently, many cultivators from the Immortal Dimension have entered the Mortal Dimension. Those mortals are ignorant. In these past few days, people must pay more attention to them, so as not to destroy the spiritual veins of our Immortal Dimension. There are some things that they do not need to know …”
“Humph … Mortal cultivators are just insects from the Three Realms. They think that they can go against the heavens after learning a few Dao Arts. It’s ridiculous that these insects still dream of becoming immortals and never dying. Giving them the seven Spiritual Veins in the mortal world is simply ridiculous!”
“Forget it. Let’s go see if there are any other abnormalities nearby.”
The two of them patrolled the area for about an incense stick of time before leaving. Only after they had completely lost their aura did Xiao Chen walk out from behind the mountain peak. At this moment, he was still staring in the direction the two of them had left in and remained silent.
From the conversation between the two of them, he could vaguely tell that something was amiss. Combined with his previous conjecture, could it be that this Immortal World Spirit Vein was actually … absorbing the Spiritual Energy of the mortal world?
Night slowly descended. The night sky of the Immortal Dimension was multicolored, and the galaxies were dazzling. At this moment, bursts of Spiritual Light also came from below the Abyss Valley. It was extremely beautiful.
…
In the next few days, Xiao Chen had found several Immortal World spirit veins like before, and every one of them was bound to be sealed with restrictions.
However, his divine sense had already probed a little. It seemed that it was indeed as he had guessed earlier. There were countless immortal spiritual veins in Ancient Immortal Realm that looked like a net. And some of these spiritual veins, Spiritual Energy, were extracted from the mortal world!
“Not only did he secretly absorb the Spiritual Energy of the mortal world, he even described the cultivators of the mortal world as insects. Interesting …”
At this moment, Xiao Chen stood motionless above an abyss valley. At this moment, he began to suspect that Ancient Immortal Realm opened every few years for the purpose of absorbing the Spiritual Energy of the mortal world.
However, cultivators in the mortal world didn’t know anything about this. Every time, so many people would gather outside to help open the gap between the Immortal Dimensions. This was inevitable … He didn’t know what to say.
A cold breeze blew from the cliff. Looking at the bursts of light emitted by the Spiritual Energy beneath the valley, Xiao Chen suddenly felt a little desolate. Mortals were indeed too weak. In terms of strength, they could not compare to devils, in terms of lifespan, they could not compare to demons, and in terms of magical power, they could not compare to immortals …
It was precisely because of this that 10,000 years ago, Qing Emperor passed down a cultivation method to help mortals resist floods, ferocious beasts, and all external evils … However, now, the world had become treacherous.
“The law of the jungle is the absolute law of this world.”
Just as he was sighing with emotion, Gu Mo’s voice suddenly appeared in his divine sea. “But don’t look down on yourself too much, kid. The primordial chaos has just opened. Twelve spiritual veins exist under the heavens, and there are only seven in the mortal world. Up until now, these seven spiritual veins are still in the mortal world. Do you really think that there are no experts in the mortal world?” “Without experts, how can we defend these seven spirit veins? Back then, even the Heavenly Emperor was shocked by Qing Emperor. What do you think?”
“I know. It’s just that the world doesn’t know.”
Xiao Chen frowned slightly as he looked at the weak and helpless grass on the edge of the cliff. It was as if he had seen a cultivator in the mortal world. It had been a long time since he had felt so sentimental.
“Take the Spiritual Energy from the mortal world as their own. It seems that they have taken this matter for granted for granted in the various’high immortals’ of the Immortal Dimension.”
At this moment, Xiao Chen’s tone was calm, and he wasn’t indignant for the world. Perhaps, as Gu Mo had said, the world was a place where the weak were the prey of the strong. Now that cultivators in the world weren’t strong, what could they do if they couldn’t defend this spirit vein? It was like a country that was too weak and occupied by the four great powers, so what?
These Immortal World Spirit Veins were occupied by powerful forces in the Immortal Dimension, and all of them had restrictions placed on them. As for the rain and dew in the Immortal Dimension, it must also be related to these Spirit Veins.
Combined with what he had heard these past few days, Xiao Chen suddenly understood something. Ordinary rain and dew from the Immortal Dimension could not save Wei Yang. There was only one kind of rain and dew from the Immortal Dimension that could save Wei Yang. It was the rain and dew from the Immortal Dimension condensed from the spirit veins of Ancient Immortal Realm. Only this rain and dew from the Immortal Dimension could save Wei Yang.
“Gu Mo, do you dare to do something big with me next?”
Xiao Chen suddenly asked. Seeing him suddenly ask this, Gu Mo understood something. He immediately had a bad premonition that this brat … would most likely turn the entire Ancient Immortal Realm upside down.
