Methods to cultivate the soul had always been rare. Even the most common grade was dozens of times more precious than martial arts cultivation methods of the same level. There were even martial artists who took out Earth-level martial arts cultivation methods to exchange for a Human-level soul cultivation method but failed.
Although Lazurite was only an eternal spirit, the Seal of Mountains and Rivers was a supreme treasure of the alchemy dao. Moreover, alchemists needed to pay more attention to the cultivation of the soul. After a long period of time, Lazurite was influenced by what she saw and heard, so she more or less knew a few soul cultivation methods.
Buzz Buzz Buzz!
The awakening of an Eternal Spirit that had existed for an unknown period of time was enough to be regarded as Xiao Chen's foundation. At this moment, the Soul Refining Technique emerged in Xiao Chen's soul, and soon Xiao Chen had mastered the essence of it. The soul power that was originally absorbed by the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor was completely absorbed and all filled into the Sea of Divine Soul.
Soon, Xiao Chen had absorbed this ownerless soul, and at the same time, made up for the originally somewhat dispirited soul. After absorbing half of the soul of a martial artist at the Seventh Heaven of the Heavy Building Realm, Xiao Chen's spirit had also improved a little. Of course, there was still a big gap from the Seventh Heaven of the Heavy Building Realm.
After absorbing the soul of the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor, Xiao Chen also got a lot of information. For example, in the entire Desolate Border Region, among all the alien race remnants, the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor was the strongest. Correspondingly, the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor also became the leader of all the alien races in the Desolate Border Region.
There was also the attack on the four middle-ranked combat divisions that he commanded. The blood-colored formation that appeared during the battle was related to the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor, but at this moment, the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor had been turned into ashes, and then these so-called secrets also became a bubble.
What made Xiao Chen regret was that among all the information, the only thing that could be confirmed was that these alien races' next actions were all under the control of the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor. However, in the battle of the Cyan Wolf Secret Territory, it could be said that the alien race remnants that gathered in the Desolate Border Region were almost wiped out.
Of course, this could be considered to be good news as well. After all, the remnants of the Outsiders in the Desolate Border Region had been completely annihilated, and it was extremely beneficial to the preparations for the River of Hundred Realms.
"Master!" Seeing that Xiao Chen had opened his eyes, Azure flapped her wings and descended from the sky.
"Liu Li, this is the Soul Refining Art!"
This was because Xiao Chen discovered that the method for cultivating the soul that Liu Li had imparted to him was many times more exquisite than the incomplete soul secret techniques he had obtained from the ancient records of the Alchemy Dao. The soul was also one of the great secrets of the human body. Although Xiao Chen had managed to integrate some incomplete secret techniques, he did not dare to cultivate them carelessly.
"Master!"
Hearing Xiao Chen's question, Liu Li actually became a little embarrassed. "This Soul Refining Art is part of the alchemy inheritance. However, at that time, the Seal of Mountains and Rivers was heavily damaged and Liu Li fell into a deep slumber, so there were some things that I couldn't remember clearly. Thus, when I passed on the alchemy manual to Master, I forgot to pass on this soul cultivation method to Master."
Now, Xiao Chen finally understood why this all-encompassing alchemy masterpiece did not have a complete soul cultivation method. So the reason was because of this.
"However, Master, don't underestimate this Soul Refining Art just because of its name. It is definitely a supreme soul cultivation method!"
Very soon, Xiao Chen no longer bothered about this. He turned to Liu Li and asked: "Liu Li, do you have any simplified soul cultivation methods?"
In recent years, the Gu Yuan Tribe would recruit a large number of youths from the tribe every year to join the Hundred Herb Hall and become apprentice alchemists. Currently, the number of apprentices in the tribe had reached more than one thousand, but only a few could become alchemists. Moreover, they were only elementary alchemists. In the end, their soul power simply couldn't increase, so they were forcefully stuck at the initial level.
"Master, you want to pass it down to your own tribe, right?"
Xiao Chen nodded his head. There was no need for a technique that was too advanced. After all, the highest cultivation of these apprentices was only at the Blood Refinement Realm. Furthermore, Xiao Chen did not intend to directly give it to them to cultivate. It required sufficient contributions. If they wanted to obtain a more advanced technique, they would need to work even harder and contribute to the tribe.
A moment later, Xiao Chen's gaze fell on an incomparably huge divine tree in front of him. Without the corrosion of the blood, the entire World Tree was shining with a faint golden radiance. However, at this moment, this faint golden radiance seemed a little dim. The golden body of the tree had even become a little withered in some places. This was the aftereffect of being corroded by the Blood Moon Wolf for a long time.
Under Liu Li's deliberate control, the endless world essence energy in the entire medicinal garden gathered towards the World Tree. There were even some places that were densely covered with branches and leaves, where the rich world essence energy had condensed into droplets.
The world essence energy in the Heavenly Grotto-World was derived from the Chaotic Origin Qi when the Heavenly Grotto-World evolved not long ago. It even contained a trace of the chaotic aura that remained. This had an incomparable benefit to the World Essence in the Great Wilderness to make up for the damaged World Tree.
At this moment, the World Tree in front of him was nearly a thousand feet tall. Its lush branches and leaves covered a hundred miles of the sky. The main trunk was a hundred feet tall. Even though it was a little withered, one could still see a trace of vigor that belonged to a divine tree.
This was a divine tree that had been born even longer than the Spiritual Wood. It originated in the Great Wilderness, and every single one of them had incomparable power. Even in the era of the Mang Aragami, this kind of divine tree, which was used as a habitat by the Nine Heavens Roc, was rare in the Great Wilderness.
In the current Great Wilderness, there was no need to mention it. Xiao Chen estimated that this World Tree had originally grown in the Great Wilderness. It had to be said that the Bloodmoon Wolf Ancestor was really lucky to be able to find a divine tree that was still in its infancy stage.
Rumor had it that a true World Tree that had truly matured was as tall as the sky. Its entire tree body was like a mountain range, and it had the strength of a Divine Beast. It could even transform into a human, and its strength was no different from that of a Divine Beast. It was all thanks to the divine tree that the Bloodmoon Wolf Ancestor had seen. However, it was still in its infancy stage, which was also the stage of a sapling.
Indeed, Liu Li had told him that this World Tree, which was thousands of feet tall and hundreds of feet in diameter, was still in its infancy stage. This made Xiao Chen extremely shocked. The divine tree really could not be treated with common sense. Moreover, if this divine tree was placed in the world of the Seal of Mountains and Rivers, it could help Xiao Chen stabilize the Heavenly Grotto-World.
This World Tree had already existed for no less than ten thousand years. Xiao Chen walked under the World Tree and placed his hand on the huge trunk. He really felt that he was extremely small.
Buzz!
In an instant, Xiao Chen's divine sense entered the ancient tree and seemed to enter a golden sea. In this boundless golden sea, there was a golden divine bird wandering in the golden sea. This divine creature sometimes had a pair of wings, and it was as handsome as a spirit. At other times, it was a big fish covered with scales. However, at this moment, whether it was a divine bird or a giant fish, it seemed very dispirited and listless.
The Ninth Heaven Roc!
This was the appearance of the Divine Beast, the Ninth Heaven Roc. Xiao Chen did not expect the spiritual sense of the World Tree to transform into the appearance of the Ninth Heaven Roc. In the legends, the Divine Beast, the Ninth Heaven Roc, could spread its wings for one million and eight hundred thousand miles. Its wings could spread for three million and six hundred and fifty thousand miles. It could soar into the Ninth Heaven and become a Roc when facing the sun and descend into the Ninth Hell.
Beside Xiao Chen, Azure's figure also materialized. Seeing the two figures materialize, the Divine Bird formed by the Building Tree Divine Tree let out a soft cry, appearing extremely young.
Liu Li's figure arrived in front of the World Tree. There seemed to be a special aura on Liu Li's body that made the World Tree very happy. It seemed to be very intimate with Liu Li. Suddenly, the clear cry of the World Tree could be heard in the entire golden space.
However, Xiao Chen understood that although the World Tree Spirit had transformed into the appearance of a Divine Beast, it was only for show. Perhaps a long time ago, the World Tree had a Ninth Heaven Roc as its nest on the World Tree, which made the World Tree remember its divine might, which was why it looked like this.
Soon, the young World Tree Spirit came in front of Xiao Chen and called out to Xiao Chen. At this moment, it had already felt that Xiao Chen did not have any malice and would not want to devour it again.
After appeasing the World Tree Spirit, Xiao Chen quickly withdrew from the golden sea. He believed that under the nourishment of the Heavenly Abode Herb Garden, the World Tree would quickly recover the spiritual energy it had lost over the years. Although it was still in its infancy, it still had the strength comparable to the seventh heaven of the Heavenly Building Realm. It was just that as a pure World Tree, it could not effectively exert its strength.
Moreover, Xiao Chen also learned from Liu Li why the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor could plunder the World Tree and even erode its spiritual intelligence. It turned out that the Blood Moon Wolf Ancestor used flesh and blood as a sacrifice. The World Tree was flawless. If there was too much flesh and blood eroding the spiritual intelligence, it would be enough to tarnish its spiritual intelligence, let alone a newborn World Tree.
Subsequently, Xiao Chen left the space of the Seal of Mountains and Rivers and appeared in the wasteland. Then, his body flashed and he disappeared.
The next moment, Xiao Chen's figure appeared in the stone castle on the mountainside of the Gu Yuan Tribe's mountain city.
Soon, Xiao Chen's return alarmed many elders and martial artists of the Gu Yuan Tribe.
That day, when Xiao Chen went to investigate the scarlet array, an earth-shattering battle broke out. Later, when Wan Tianxing arrived, he only saw that nearly a hundred miles of land had been scorched, but Xiao Chen had disappeared.
"Patriarch!"
Seeing that Xiao Chen had returned safely, the elders were relieved. The news brought by Wan Tianxing was too shocking. A hundred miles of land had been scorched, ancient mountains had collapsed, the earth had cracked, and lava had spread across the land.
Xiao Chen saw the worry in the hearts of the people and felt two tenderness in the crowd that could melt everything. It was Mu Qing and Pinghua. Xiao Chen's sudden disappearance could be said to have caused a great shock in the Gu Yuan Tribe. Fortunately, after several years of development, millions of people had initially integrated. The power of the tribe was in the hands of a group of direct descendants. Coupled with the strength of Mu Qing, the fifth heaven of the Heavenly Building Realm, there was no unusual movement in the tribe.
