1718 The Divine Wind Peak, Highest Grade of Immortal Core’s Flower in This Generation?
After hearing Feng Qiyu’s invitation, Chu Kuangren started to ponder.
Ancient Central Heaven Planet, as a planet that had produced many God Kings, had a few God Kings who chose to return and leave their inheritances behind.
Those places of inheritance had one of the most valuable Opportunities of Fortune in the Ancient Central Heaven Planet.
“That’s quite interesting. Alright, I shall follow you.”
“In that case, time is of the essence. Let’s head right there now.”
Feng Qiyu chuckled.
“Very well.”
Chu Kuangren was not worried that Feng Qiyu would trick him. After all, the Feng clan and the Spiritual Sword Tribe had been in good relations for many years. If Feng Qiyu wanted to cause him harm, putting aside whether she was strong enough to do so, the relationship between the two tribes would surely shatter. There was no way the Feng clan’s higher-ups would allow something like that to happen.
After all, Feng Qiyu might be an exceptionally talented cultivator, but she still had a long way to go. At her current level, she still was not strong enough to shoulder the burdens of the entire Feng clan.
It would be foolish of her to ruin the relationship with the Spiritual Sword Tribe.
Under Feng Qiyu’s lead, everyone got on board a warship and headed toward the location of the inheritance she mentioned earlier.
Along the way, Chu Kuangren also refined the Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit he just obtained.
That was the second Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit he had consumed.
Although the effects were not as potent as the first time he consumed it, he still managed to increase the level of his Immortal Core’s Flower to the Twentieth Grade. He was now one step closer to reaching the Twenty-fourth Grade.
Atop a mountain peak somewhere, a young man carrying a bow walked out from the void. His face was pale, and he was coughing out a mouthful of blood.
“You’re injured.”
At that moment, a white-haired man in gold robes slowly approached him.
That person was the Emperor Tribe’s Prodigy, ranked seventh on the Heavenly God Leaderboard, Di Liufang!
“The Heavenly Sword power is shocking.”
The young man wiped his mouth. He was none other than Liu Chuanxing, the person who tried to save Wu You earlier.
“Did you manage to save Wu You?” Liu Chuanxing asked. He had already planned with Di Liufang beforehand that he would hold Chu Kuangren back while Di Liufang went to save Wu You.
“No.”
Di Liufang shook his head. “You didn’t buy us enough time. The Heavenly Sword managed to catch up to Wu You and kill him.”
“So, you’re blaming me now?”
“No, not really.”
“What a shame. Wu You’s strength is quite commendable. If we could’ve brought him over to our side and gone against the Heavenly Sword together, our chances of getting that fragment would surely increase.”
Liu Chuanxing shook his head and lamented.
“It doesn’t matter now. Wu You’s death is a good thing for us as well.”
Di Liufang grinned. “With Wu You dead, the Heavenly Sword has now made himself the number one enemy of the Nether King Tribe. Besides Wu You, we still have the more powerful Nether King Heaven Daoist in the Nether King Tribe too.”
“That’s true.”
Liu Chuanxing gave it some thought and soon realized it made sense too.
They were confident in convincing the Nether King Heaven Daoist to join them.
“Let’s leave.”
Di Liufang and Liu Chuanxing were traveling somewhere to carry out their plans to deal with the Heavenly Sword.
…
“Congratulations, Host! You’ve won a God-tier item, the Nine-colored Celestial Soul Flower.”
Like any other day, Chu Kuangren did his daily gacha roll.
However, he was a little surprised by what he got this time because he had also received the same thing when he was in the unknown void.
That item was an extremely powerful soul-attribute treasure that could rapidly increase the user’s soul power.
“Not bad.”
It was rare for Chu Kuangren to obtain the same item twice.
However, he was pretty satisfied with the Nine-colored Celestial Soul Flower. After all, it was like the soul-variant of the Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit.
While traveling to the location of inheritance that Feng Qiyu mentioned, he managed to refine that item too.
Currently, his Immortal’s Core Flower was in the Twentieth Grade, his Soul Flower was in the Twenty-first Grade, and his Life’s Core Flower was in the Twenty-fourth Grade!
He was confident that he could increase the grade of all three Trinity Flowers to the unprecedented Twenty-fourth Grade!
Chu Kuangren got extremely curious. He wondered how powerful he would be once all three of his Trinity Flowers had reached the Twenty-Fourth Grade. If he were to merge all his Trinity Flowers after that, how powerful of a Five Qi-realm cultivator would he be?
“Are we there yet?”
Chu Kuangren walked out of the warship’s cabin, glanced at Feng Qiyu, and asked.
The moment she glanced back at him, a look of surprise flashed across her eyes. Feng Qiyu felt that Chu Kuangren had become more unpredictable than before.
“Could he have refined the Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit in such a short time?”
“No, just the Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit alone wouldn’t result in such a drastic change. What the hell happened to him?” Feng Qiyu secretly thought to herself.
Now, she was starting to grow warier of Chu Kuangren.
However, she remained calm on the outside and replied with a smile, “We’re almost there.”
“Alright.”
Chu Kuangren did not ask anything else.
Soon after, a towering mountain peak that reached the clouds came into everyone’s view.
The mountain was so tall that it seemed connected to the heavens and earth. Countless storms were swirling around the mountain peak, each containing a terrifying power. That location was clearly a dangerous place to be.
“Is this the location of inheritance you were talking about?”
“That’s right. This place is known as the Divine Wind Peak! It was once the location where a great one from the Feng clan frequented to comprehend the Dao. She also left behind her inheritance here. However, it’ll be extremely difficult to climb up the Divine Wind Peak. Even if an Arch Gilded Immortal unknowingly got too close to this location, the storms would surely tear them into shreds!” Feng Qiyu said.
“That may be so, but I don’t think it’ll be difficult for someone like you.”
“The storms on the outside are only the first trial we have to pass. Once we ascend to the Divine Wind Peak, we’ll encounter the second trial there. That was why I sought your help, Heavenly Sword.”
The stormy conjurations surrounding the Divine Wind Peak were truly devastating, but they attracted many cultivators to come and take a look at it.
Some of them were amazed as they looked at the storms.
“What powerful storms. Just look at the power they contain. I bet even an Arch Gilded Immortal won’t dare to get close.”
“Wow, check it out. There’s a warship traveling toward the storms.”
Someone suddenly exclaimed.
Outside the storms, the warship with Chu Kuangren, Feng Qiyu, and the others on board was slowly approaching the Divine Wind Peak.
“They’re going to crash!”
Just when everyone thought the storms would tear the warship into pieces, a sword ray suddenly shot into the skies and landed on the storms. With a power that could seemingly split the heavens and earth, the attack tore through the storms and forced a huge opening amidst the endless storms!
The warship entered the Divine Wind Peak without trouble.
Everyone’s eyes widened upon seeing that.
“That sword qi is so powerful!”
“I bet that attack is strong enough to kill most Arch Gilded Immortals.”
“It must be a Prodigy ranked top twenty on the Heavenly God Leadership. I wonder who is on board that warship.”
“Besides the Heavenly Sword, I don’t think anyone else could do something like this among the younger generation of cultivators.”
News of the Heavenly Sword appearing at the Divine Wind Peak spread like wildfire.
Meanwhile, somewhere far away, a white-robed young man sitting atop a mountain peak suddenly opened his eyes.
Runes of the Great Dao surrounded that young man as mysterious Daoist Rhymes circulated through his body. On top of his head, a Sixteenth-grade Immortal Core’s Flower slowly bloomed, and its radiance instantly illuminated the whole area.
“Sixteenth-grade Immortal Core’s Flower. This Ancient Central Heaven Planet is really full of treasures. To think that I’ve managed to increase the grade of my Immortal Core’s Flower,” the young man mumbled.
He was none other than Ji Feiyun, a Prodigy from the Mystic Divination Tribe.
“However, I seem to have reached my limit,” Ji Feiyun thought.
After reaching the Sixteenth Grade, he felt he was at a bottleneck. Moreover, that bottleneck was several times harder to break through than the one he experienced back when he broke through the Great Dao’s Twelfth Grade limit.
If everything went smoothly, the Sixteenth Grade would be his limit, and he could never get beyond that level.
Then again, only a handful of cultivators in the history of Central Heaven Universe had managed to achieve the Sixteenth-grade Immortal Core’s Flower. Hence, he could be considered the person with the highest Immortal Core’s Flower grade in his generation!
At that thought, he smiled with satisfaction.
