Chapter 506: Four Hundred Fifty Start Making Treasure

Whoosh...

The Innate Five-Colored Divine Light swept past, and although it failed to break through Jiang Chen’s defense, it managed to encapsulate him along with his divine ability.

Once the dizzying moment passed, Jiang Chen opened his eyes to find himself in a world full of colors.

This was the realm of the Five Elements, a product of the Qi of the Five Elements; the air was filled with innate Five Elements Qi, capable of eradicating everything, reducing it all back to the Five Elements.

Ordinary people who find themselves in this realm either fall into a deep sleep, losing their senses and leaving themselves open to slaughter, or are immediately crushed by the innate Qi of the Five Elements, destroying their physical and spiritual selves.

However, Jiang Chen was different; with the Merit Gold Wheel protecting him, the innate Five Elements Qi couldn’t hurt him. But even so, breaking free from this place wasn’t going to be easy.

To break from this realm of Five Elements, one must surpass the strength of that Peacock. But as of now, Jiang Chen was no match for it. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been captured this easily.

"Oh no, this is the Supreme Divine Ability, the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light. We’ve been taken by it; this is troublesome."

At this point, the Seven Fairy Sisters finally came to their senses, with one of them crying out in surprise.

"My mother once spoke of the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light, a fragment of chaotic spiritual light from the innate period, which divided into the Five Elements."

"The Five-Colored Divine Light consists of five feathers, each three feet long, mimicking the form of a sword with distinct colors: blue, yellow, red, black, and white swirling around, internal but not outgoing."

"Despite merely being five feathers, they possess a weight akin to ancient mountains, impossible to wield without great magic power. On a flick, they can capture anything."

"In the ancient Investiture of the Gods battle, Kong Xuan of the Shang Dynasty once used this divine ability to imprison Zhunti within it. However, due to the inferiority of his own magical power and Taoist cultivation to that of the saint, he allowed the latter to break free and was eventually subdued himself..."

"Now that we’ve been captured by this divine ability, unless our magic power greatly surpasses that of that beast, we will eventually be at its mercy."

After the initial panic, the Seven Fairy Sisters calmed down and began to analyze the situation seriously. Seeing Jiang Chen still looking relaxed even in such dire circumstances, they felt more at ease.

Jiang Chen must have a plan to escape. Otherwise, why would their father have sent him to help them?

With this thought, the sisters relaxed a little. Then, Princess Tian Shou turned to Jiang Chen and asked, "Jiang Chen, now that we have been taken into this realm of Five Elements by that beast, do you have a method for us to escape?"

Jiang Chen confidently responded, "Escape? That’s easy. Let me prepare for a bit, then I’ll break this realm of Five Elements."

While talking, Jiang Chen pulled out the soil and rocks he had gathered, and began to examine them unassumingly.

Nine Heavens Compost, a sacred item of the Human Race, and Compost, the vital material used lead to the creation of the Thirty-Three Heavens Creation Pagoda, were both within these rocks.

Jiang Chen’s confidence to escape relied on these rocks. Once he extracts the Compost and transforms the Thirty-Three Heavens Creation Pagoda into a divine artifact, breaking out of this realm and escaping would be a trivial task.

Due to the rush, Jiang Chen hadn’t had time to distinguish between ordinary soil and Compost, so he used the simplest and fastest method - taking the entire piece of land.

Approximately ten thousand miles wide and deep, the land, once taken out by Jiang Chen and placed within the realm of Five Elements, looked like a huge continent.

Since the entire secret territory was transmuted from the flesh and blood of the Five Elements Demon God, the soil within was not like the outside world.

The soil is all Innate Spiritual Soil, transmuted from the essence of the Innate Earth element. In the outside world, only some top-tier powers possessed such soil, but here, it was everywhere.

If Jiang Chen refined this huge piece of land, he could obtain quite a lot of the Innate Elemental Original Source of Earth. However, this would be a waste. It would be better to bring it out and grow Innate Spiritual Medicine or sell it to other powers.

With this in mind, Jiang Chen swung his sleeve, unleashing a wave of magical energy, and shattered the continent into countless pieces of dust, which he collected.

Following the disappearance of the dust, nine fist-sized yellow clumps of soil appeared in their place. They emitted a shimmering divine light and radiated an aroma of earth’s original source, looking incredibly mystical.

This was the divine element of earth, the Compost.

Jiang Chen reached out to grab a piece of Compost and carefully examined it. Then, he noticed a speck of dust that was unlike the others, embedded on the surface of the Compost. It emitted a seven-colored radiance and had an astonishing aura of providence.

This speck of dust was the legendary providence item, Nine Heavens Compost. Deeply moved, Jiang Chen took the other eight pieces of Compost, each containing a speck of Nine Heavens Compost on their surfaces.

Together with the initial speck of Nine Heavens Compost, he had accumulated nine in total. Nine pieces of Nine Heavens Compost and nine pieces of Compost — that was the result of his adventure this time around.

As for how many pieces of Nine Heavens Compost there were in total, Jiang Chen didn’t know. But he could imagine. Empress Nuwa, an Innate Goddess, had an unimaginable size, dominantly thousands of feet tall even if not projecting power.

The Nine Heavens Compost at the time was held in her palm and was larger than her hand.

Which means, the complete Nine Heavens Compost was almost equivalent to a small hill.

But in front of Jiang Chen were only nine grains, far less than one ten-thousandth of the whole, incredibly scarce, and certainly wouldn’t qualify as a supreme Innate Merit treasure, and could barely be considered a pre-heavenly treasure.
