Chapter 503: Four Four Nine Peacock

The Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three heavens was refined by Jiang Chen using the innate pure Qi, which was groundbreaking at that time and there was nothing wrong with it.

Once complete, the treasure immediately resonated with the heavenly realm and even attracted the favor of the original source of the heavenly realm, making it even more powerful.

No magic treasure in the past had such a force, which could mobilize the power of the heavenly realm. Therefore, the Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three Heavens was groundbreaking indeed.

But at this moment, Jiang Chen wants to transform the Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three Heavens into a Divine Artifact; having only the innate pure Qi is not necessarily appropriate.

The essence of a Divine Artifact lies in the world. A world emphasizes balance, combining clear and turbid in harmony. However, the Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three Heavens has only innate pure Qi, and no innate turbid Qi.

This is its flaw, and it needs compensation.

As for the Soil of Rest, it is the ancestor of the earth, condensed from the essence of the earth, and can produce innate turbid Qi. It’s precisely what Jiang Chen needs to refine the Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three Heavens again.

Of course, even only with innate pure Qi, a world can also be formed, such as the heavenly realm.

However, such a world, with too singular attribute, values spirit over the flesh, does not accord with Jiang Chen’s Philosophy. He wants a world like Chaos World, where clear and turbid exist in harmony, and the Yin-Yang and Five Elements are all encompassing.

At first, Jiang Chen planned to improvise, to turn the Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three Heavens into a Divine Artifact before dealing with the matter of innate turbid Qi, after leaving this place.

But at this moment, since Jiang Chen has discovered the Soil of Rest and has the opportunity to make the Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three Heavens complete, how could he miss it? Even if it’s risky, he would want to get hold of some Soil of Rest for the pagoda to devour.

Exactly, that’s right!

If there are dangers in this journey, Jiang Chen’s main objective will then be to grab a handful of Soil of Rest and flee. As for the Soil of Rest of the Nine Heavens? That’s not urgent, he could wait until he has refined the Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three Heavens and then come looking for it.

After the Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three Heavens turns into a Divine Artifact, even in the face of an Innate Dao Sovereign, Jiang Chen would at least have the confidence. Though he may not be able to defeat the Sovereign, escaping would not be a problem.

With the help of the transformation of the pagoda turning into a Divine Artifact, Jiang Chen would be able to roam boldly in the secret realm of Five Elements. It seems easy for him to take away the Soil of Rest of the Nine Heavens, doesn’t it?

To be able to travel freely in the secret realm of the Five Elements later, it is worth taking some risks at this moment, which is what Jiang Chen believes.

Jiang Chen was very cunning, without a significant benefit, he would not risk himself.

...

...

Silently, Jiang Chen flew over several hundred thousand li and got closer and closer to where the Soil of Rest of the Nine Heavens is located.

At the same time, Jiang Chen also became more cautious. Because he found out what kind of place he had arrived at.

This was the central area of the secret realm of the Five Elements. Many powerful Fierce Beasts lived here, and the air was filled with rich primitive Qi of the Five Elements, so dense that it almost condensed into liquid and dripped - it couldn’t be compared to the barren environment of the outer area.

Even the weakest Fierce Beasts living here have the Dao Monarch-level cultivation, and the strongest ones have even reached the peak of half-step Dao Venerable, getting infinitely close to the Innate Dao Sovereign realm.

Yes, there are no Innate Dao Sovereign-level Fierce Beasts in the secret realm of the Five Elements, but there are many half-step Dao Venerable-level Fierce Beasts. And these all existed for Jiang Chen at present that he could not afford to provoke. Even if he saw some from far away, he would always bypass it.

The Jade Emperor told Jiang Chen about the central area of the secret realm. He mentioned that this place was the location of the Five Elements Demon God’s palm and was also where the Dao Ancestor set up the Innate Five Elements Array to transform the Chaos Qi.

So, the innate origin of the Five Elements in this place is extremely dense. Because of this, it has birthed a large number of powerful Fierce Beasts.

Of course, the dense innate Five Elements original source not only produced powerful Fierce Beasts but also various adventures.

Jiang Chen saw a lot of innate spiritual objects along the way. Such as innate spiritual medicine, innate divine gold, innate divine water, that are rarely seen in the outside world. They can be found everywhere here.

Moreover, Jiang Chen also saw several innate Spirit Roots and Magic Treasures. Although these Spirit Roots were all of lower quality, they were quite extraordinary. If put in the Three Realms, they would certainly cause a bloody battle.

Jiang Chen was also quite tempted when he looked at them. However, although he was tempted, he had no intention of going forward to pick them.

There were half-step Dao Venerable-level Fierce Beasts near that Spirit Root. Jiang Chen didn’t dare to approach it for fear of alarming them.

At present, acquiring the Soil of Rest is the most important. Other things like innate spiritual objects, Spirit Roots, and Magic Treasures are all secondary and completely unimportant.

"When I turn the Creation Pagoda of the Thirty-three Heavens into a Divine Artifact, all these treasures will be mine." Jiang Chen silently marked the locations of these treasures and thought so.

The Secret Realm of the Five Elements has existed for countless years. Although no Innate Dao Sovereign has been born during these years, who knows how many half-step Dao Venerables have accumulated.

If Jiang Chen’s Pangu Qi leaks out right now, he’s certainly going to be besieged by dozens or even hundreds of half-step Dao Venerable-level Fierce Beasts.

If he really falls into such a predicament, it would be a tragic situation indeed, where he would either die or be crippled.

Therefore, Jiang Chen was extra cautious after coming here. He didn’t dare to let out even a bit of his Qi.

It is worth knowing that the Fierce Beasts here are different from those on the outside whose attributes were more singular.

But the Fierce Beasts here, bathed in the innate primitive Qi of the Five Elements all year round, gradually mutated and gained two or more attributes. This makes them even more powerful.
