Chapter 1358 Heavy Oath
It wasn’t just Heaven Trampler, the hearts of Shi Yu and the others hurt as well, and if it wasn’t out of consideration for their status, they would wish for nothing more than to seize the Dao Fruit’s Spirits from Chen Xi!
Of course, it was useless even if they did. The Dao Fruit’s Spirits were enveloped by the aura of the River Diagram fragments, and it caused them to be utterly unable to approach the Dao Fruit’s Spirits and could only watch from the side as this happened.
There was a total of fifty Dao Fruit’s Spirits that flew before their eyes, and entire twenty plus had surged into Chen Xi’s body at this moment.
If it continued at this speed, then it probably wouldn’t be long before all the Dao Fruit’s Spirits would be completely absorbed by Chen Xi. At that time, all of them would be depressed to the point of spitting out blood!
At this moment, Chen Xi’s heart hurt from the loss as well, yet he was unable to stop it.
Those are Dao Fruit’s Spirits!
Can you leave a few behind?
As if it had heard the voice in Chen Xi’s heart, after it absorbed over thirty Dao Fruit’s Spirits, the surface of the River Diagram fragments flowed with a lustrous glow of divinity and emanated a strand of the aura of completeness, and it immediately fell into deep silence.
There were another seventeen Dao Fruit’s Spirits that remained!
Chen Xi instantly revealed an extremely relieved smile when he saw this. All of these are supreme and paramount treasures, and they all belong to me now!
Swish!
After the River Diagram fragments stopped enveloping them with its energy, the few Dao Fruit’s Spirits that remained fell down like raindrops, and they were put away by Chen Xi. He stored them into jade boxes and carefully sealed them up.
Fortunately, the River Diagram fragments had tamed the Dao Fruit’s Spirits since a long time ago, otherwise merely putting these divine treasures away wouldn’t be something a Saint Immortal like Chen Xi could accomplish.
After he finished doing all of this, Chen Xi heaved a sigh of relief, and when his gaze inadvertently swept towards the surroundings, he noticed that Shi Yu and the others were staring at him with their eyes open wide. The seemed as if they were looking at a freak, and it was indescribably strange.
Chen Xi instantly understood that everything had been witnessed by these Immortal Kings, and he felt a wave of speechlessness in his heart. All of that was caused by the River Diagram fragments, and it has nothing to do with me.
Unfortunately, he was unable to give them an explanation about this.
“Brother Chen Xi, well done!” Fortunately, Shi Yu and the others didn’t pursue the matter, and they just praised Chen Xi repeatedly.
Earlier, they’d never imagined that such an unexpected event would occur at the peak of the God Attainment Altar, and they’d never imagined that so many Chaotic Devil Spirits and Dao Fruit’s Spirits were hidden within the chaotic mist…
Especially when they saw the Dao Fruit’s Spirits actually fall into Chen Xi’s arms on their own, the shock in their hearts was indescribable.
Now that everything had returned to calm, and there were still over ten Dao Fruit’s Spirits in Chen Xi’s possession, they naturally felt extremely envious. So it was impossible that they would be stingy with their praise.
It couldn’t be helped. They were still hoping that Chen Xi would give them a Dao Fruit’s Spirit each.
As for taking it by force, Sun Wuhen, Dao Yao, and Pang Du had such thoughts in their hearts, but when they looked at Shi Yu, Xiangliu Li, and Heaven Trampler, they immediately gave up.
They were very clearly aware that even though Chen Xi was only a junior at the Saint Immortal Realm, the Midnight Immortal King had suffered a heavy injury earlier because of him!
Even if that was disregarded, merely based on his combat strength that was capable of going against the Eye of Heavenly Tribulation, it was sufficient to make Sun Wuhen and the others to be filled with terror, and they didn’t dare arouse any ill intent.
If it was any other Saint Immortal, they wouldn’t hesitate in the slightest and directly take it by force.
“Young Brother Chen Xi, I wonder if those…if those…Dao Fruit’s Spirits of yours…” Xiangliu Li hesitated over and over again before she finally mumbled, and her clear and beautiful face carried a wisp of a blush as she seemed to be slightly shy.
It could be considered extremely rare for an Immortal King from Nuwa’s Dao Palace to reveal such an appearance.
As she spoke, the others revealed a wisp of burning desire from their eyes as well, and they glanced repeatedly at the jade boxes in Chen Xi’s hands while seeming to be hesitating to speak.
“Miss Li, there’s no need to say any more. I never intended to take possession of all these Dao Fruit’s Spirits.” Chen Xi spoke swiftly as he didn’t dare to make Xiangliu Li continue feeling embarrassed like this.
As he spoke, he immediately spread out the 17 boxes that contained Dao Fruit’s Spirits in a row, and he placed it before him as he said, “I don’t know what Grand Dao all of you’ve comprehended, so please choose yourselves.”
Shi Yu and the others were extremely relieved when they saw Chen Xi give the Dao Fruit’s Spirits to them so readily, and the gazes they shot at Chen Xi revealed extreme friendliness.
“Brother Chen Xi, then I won’t hold back.” Shi Yu roared with laughter as he moved forward first, and he looked through them briefly before he chose a Dao Fruit’s Spirit that contained the God Laws of Metal.
“Big Brother Shi Yu, aren’t you cultivating in the Laws of Light?” Chen Xi asked with shock. According to his previous understanding, if one chose a Dao Fruit’s Spirit that contained a God Law that didn’t confirm to one’s own Immortal King Grand Dao, then it was impossible to become a god.
Shi Yu was in a happy mood, so he naturally wouldn’t be stingy with his guidance to Chen Xi, and he said with a smile, “There are a total of nine types of God Laws utilized to attain the Dao and become a god. They’re respectively the five elements, Yin, Yang, wind, and lightning. They’re also called the Nine Godrank Daos.”
According to Shi Yu, the Dao Fruit’s Spirits contained the secret to become a god, and they contained nine types of God Laws. If it was an Immortal King that utilized one of these Laws, the Immortal King was naturally only able to choose a Dao Fruit’s Spirit that conformed to the Law.
However, if it was an Immortal King that utilized a rare Immortal King Grand Dao, then the Immortal King could choose any one of the Dao Fruit’s Spirits.
Just like the rare Grand Daos of Light, Darkness, Oblivion, and other similar Grand Daos. All of them were superior to the Grand Daos of the five elements, Yin, Yang, and various other ordinary Grand Daos. So choosing any one of these Dao Fruit’s Spirits would naturally not conflict with the rare Grand Daos.
After he finished listening to all of this, Chen Xi finally had a comprehensive understanding towards attaining the Dao and becoming a god.
All of this knowledge was temporarily useless to him. However, once he advanced into the Immortal King Realm and was about to become a god, all this knowledge would be of use then.
After that, Xiangliu Li, Heaven Trampler, Sun Wuhen, Dao Yao, and Pang Du chose a Dao Fruit’s Spirit one after the other, and they naturally thanked Chen Xi endlessly.
At this point, another eleven Dao Fruit’s Spirits remained in Chen Xi’s possession!
“Fellow Daoists, I hope that not a single word of what happened today will leak out to anyone else. Do all of you agree?” Suddenly, Shi Yu’s expression became solemn while his gaze was like an icy bolt of lightning as it swept past Sun Wuhen, Dao Yao, and Pang Du, and his voice carried a stern and cold tone.
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiangliu Li and Heaven Trampler revealed solemn expressions as well. They understood Shi Yu’s intentions, and they swept their gazes over coldly.
Chen Xi had eleven Dao Fruit’s Spirits in his possession, and it was a piece of wealth that was sufficient to cause Immortal Kings to drool covetously at. If news of it were to spread to the Immortal Dimension, then it would definitely cause boundless storms.
At that time, it was utterly impossible to keep the Dao Fruit’s Spirits by relying merely on Chen Xi’s current strength. So Shi Yu and the others were doing this to avoid any future troubles that might harm Chen Xi in the future.
Sun Wuhen and the others were filled with feelings of excitement at this moment, and their hearts jerked upon hearing this, causing their expressions to change slightly as well.
“Don’t worry. Before all of you today, I, Sun Wuhen, swear on my Grand Dao that if I expose anything that happened today, then I’ll suffer the wrath of the heavens from the God Dao and eternally be unable to have a natural death!” Sun Wuhen took a deep breath, and then he swore with a solemn expression!
Dao Yao and Pang Du couldn’t help but feel a wave of helplessness when they saw this. Originally, they were thinking of relying on the information they obtained today to exchange this information for some benefits. However, the warning and threats from Shi Yu and the others caused them to instantly discard these sort of thoughts.
Under the threatening and icy cold gazes of Shi Yu, Xiangliu Li, and Heaven Trampler, the two of them had no choice but to swear obediently.
To existences at their cultivation, so long as they made an oath, then it would imperceptibly bind them, and even if they became gods and left the three dimensions, they would suffer the wrath of the heavens upon going against their oath!
At the bottom of it all, the key was the words ‘God Dao’ in their oaths!
The gods grasped the God Dao, and if they went against their own God Dao, then they would naturally suffer the wrath of the heavens.
When they saw Sun Wuhen and the others make heavy oaths, Shi Yu and the others revealed relaxed expressions.
Chen Xi was naturally extremely pleased with such arrangements. However, he still felt a trace of worry in his heart. I’m a disciple of Oracle Mountain, so no matter how good my relationship with Shi Yu and the others is, what if they reveal this information to their relatives and friends?
At that time, even if they don’t make a move against me, but what if they come looking for me to ask for a Dao Fruit’s Spirit. That would be troublesome…
After all, they were disciples of Nuwa’s Dao Palace, and they definitely had many brothers and sisters in the sect. Once their senior and junior brothers and sisters in the sect found out about this, it would be troublesome in the end.
“Fellow Daoist Shi Yu, since we’ve all made heavy oaths, then shouldn’t all of you as well?” Dao Yao was slightly disgruntled that he was restrained like this, so he couldn’t refrain himself from asking this.
As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Xi’s expression remained unchanged, yet he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and he suddenly felt that Dao Yao was much more pleasing to the eye…
“Of course.” Shi Yu, Xiangliu Li, and Heaven Trampler instantly guessed Dao Yao’s intentions, and they didn’t feel uncomfortable because of this.
They immediately made heavy oaths as well.
Chen Xi felt completely at ease when he saw this, and his entire body felt relaxed.
After that, he noticed that Shi Yu and Xiangliu Li glanced imperceptibly at him. This allowed him to instantly realize that Shi Yu and the others had seen through his thoughts since the beginning, and they just didn’t mention it.
Chen Xi naturally wouldn’t say anything about it as well. Through this period of contact with them, Chen Xi was very clearly aware of Shi Yu and the others’ character, so he naturally wouldn’t worry that they would have any complaints.
Conversely, they were probably having a headache thinking about how they should repay him.
After all, all along the way here, Chen Xi had helped them greatly and dealt with more than one calamity. Now that he’d given them a Dao Fruit’s Spirit each, and they weren’t emotionless people like the members of the Sovereign Sect, so they would definitely remember all of this in their hearts.
This was what Chen Xi attached the most importance to.
Suddenly, Shi Yu placed his hands behind his back and looked up into the chaotic sky. His gaze was like a bolt of lightning while his face carried anticipation, and he spoke slowly. “I heard that if one refines and absorbs the Dao Fruit’s Spirit at the peak of the God Attainment Altar, then it’s extremely likely for one to see into the Godrank Chart. I want to give it a try.”
The spirits of the others were refreshed when they heard this. The Godrank Chart! That’s a divine treasure that’s branded with the supreme traces of the gods!
