Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity
Chapter 1054 - Chapter 1054 Chapter 656 Do You Also Wish to Become Disciples

Chapter 1054: Chapter 656: Do You Also Wish to Become Disciples of the Holy Land? Chapter 1054: Chapter 656: Do You Also Wish to Become Disciples of the Holy Land? Bei Yin Mountain.

Despite its name meaning “shaded from the sun,” it didn’t actually face towards the sunlight.

Within the mountain, a Cave Heaven naturally formed, nurturing three thousand extreme path Devil Gods.

It evolved from a nine serenities mysterious monument that was originally no bigger than the size of a palm, becoming the core of this Nine Serenities Secret Realm.

Of course, it was still only in its rudimentary form at present, and it needed to develop and evolve along with the Secret Realm, eventually maturing into its final form.

This evolutionary process shouldn’t take too long.

But even though it was merely in the rudimentary stage, it already possessed some outstanding features.

It wasn’t that some kind of creature had evolved on it but rather a certain ‘intent,’ akin to Sword Intent or Blade Intent, formless yet real, perceptible only upon truly entering it. It was neither the howling of the gloomy wind nor the bone-piercing chill, but something even more strange and unpredictable, hard to describe in words.

However, with the integration of a fully developed Netherworld Underworld, the current Nine Serenities Secret Realm could indeed achieve an effect akin to two swords joined together.

The Nine Serenities differed from the Underworld, yet the Underworld was part of the Nine Serenities.

Moving his gaze away from the still-evolving Nine Serenities Secret Realm in front of him, Jiang Hui immediately turned to look at the other rewards.

While the Nine Serenities Secret Realm was valuable, he couldn’t neglect the others.

To him, anything obtained without effort was a good thing, and good things never had any distinction of high or low, noble or humble.

As his gaze shifted, Jiang Hui looked at the second-to-last rare item in his bag: the Token of Shenxiao Heavenly Palace.

At the same time, the introduction related to this rare item reappeared before his eyes.

“Token of Shenxiao Heavenly Palace (Rare Item): Upon use, instantly constructs a Shenxiao Heavenly Palace, a Holy Land for cultivators. It gathers nature’s spiritual energy to help cultivators achieve breakthroughs in their Realm, and at the same time, withstands Heavenly Tribulations.”

Strictly speaking, this was not the first construction token Jiang Hui had obtained from the dragon egg.

Counting them all, it would probably be beyond the count of two hands, but this was the first rare-level construction token.

That put it in a different category altogether.

“Being able to help resist Heavenly Tribulation is indeed a good thing. With this, when those village kids undergo tribulation, it will be much simpler. It’s just uncertain whether it can resist the Immortal King Tribulation?”

Jiang Hui took out the token and his eyes sparkled as he scrutinized the object in his hand that resembled a diamond-shaped piece of bright jade.

It was translucent white all over, radiating a gentle luster as if moonlight was spilling onto it. It felt cool to the touch, substantial, and slightly slick.

The feel was indeed exceptional, several notches higher than any of the previous construction tokens. One didn’t need to look to know that it certainly wasn’t anything mediocre.

But then again, the description did not clarify the extent and level of the Heavenly Tribulation, leaving much ambiguity.

If the Shenxiao Palace could only help resist minor Heavenly Tribulations, then this rare item’s value would not be as precious as imagined.

On the contrary, if it could withstand an Immortal King Tribulation, that would be another matter…

However, as there had been no tests, Jiang Hui was unsure whether the Shenxiao Palace could do so.

Even if it couldn’t completely isolate it from the outside, reducing some of it would still be quite impressive.

The Immortal King Tribulation was a truly great tribulation, with a very low margin for error, and few could make a second mistake like Shi Hao did.

Throughout ancient and modern times, countless geniuses and anomalies have perished under the Immortal King Tribulation, reduced to stark white bones, their God Souls utterly extinguished, eliciting sighs of lamentation.

Logically speaking, since it was listed as a rare item, it shouldn’t be too simple.

The method of using the Token of Shenxiao Heavenly Palace was even simpler; there was no need for blood to be dropped or for Divine Thoughts to be instilled. One only needed to choose an appropriate location, lift the rare token to their chest, and then speak the word ‘grant.’

After thinking it over, Jiang Hui didn’t immediately use the construction token, primarily because he hadn’t decided yet on where to build the Shenxiao Palace.

He had originally thought of building it in the back mountains, but after pondering for a while, he felt it was somewhat inappropriate.

The back mountains were majestic, but there were already plenty of structures atop them. Not to mention, it was also his usual place of rest. Quietness was most important.

Besides, he had other uses for this construction token.

Toward such miracles, without mixing in any fluctuation of Mana, rather than using them stealthily, it would definitely be more useful to display them in front of the public.

Not to mention from afar, reaping a handful of Experience Points is certainly assured.

Conveniently, those two Golden Burial Officers were also there.

Following that, is the last Rare Item: Hongmeng Purple Qi.

Cultivated to the extreme, it could give birth to the Primordial Truth of the Cosmos.

But like with the Heavenly Palace Token, the specific level of the Primordial Truth of the Cosmos isn’t mentioned in the description.

Descriptions of items have always been vague; most of the time one needs to attempt using them to really know.

Compared to the two items before,

this Rare Item did not have a physical form.

It was a clump of dense purple Qi, about as long and wide as a hand.

The method of use was even simpler, just absorb it into the Sea of Consciousness, and nurture it day and night.

As Jiang Hui drew out this strand of Hongmeng Purple Qi and injected it into his own Sea of Consciousness, he could clearly feel the Immortal Qi that had been occupying his Sea of Consciousness suddenly pause, and then, like sheep and deer encountering the king of mountains in the forest, they all rushed, without the need for control, to the corners and edges of his mind.

It was higher in class.

After using all three Rare Items, Jiang Hui looked at the common items one by one.

Whether in quantity or category, they far surpassed the three Rare Items, but the quality did not wane in the slightest; they could be considered the cream of the crop among common items.

During his prior brief perusal, Jiang Hui had felt that the quality of these common items was very high, surpassing that of previous times.

Whether it was the Immortal Phoenix Blood or that Phoenix’s Cry Ancient Zither, their quality should be very close to that of Rare Items.

Jiang Hui already had a target in mind for rewarding the Phoenix’s Cry Ancient Zither, but not yet for the Immortal Phoenix Blood. The villagers with notable fame all already have various powerful innate talents; although it wouldn’t hurt to have one more, but as the saying goes, biting off more than one can chew.

Once Immortal Phoenix Blood emerged in the body, a part of time would inevitably need to be allocated to becoming familiar with it and cultivating it.

This is not as simple as taking a horse stance, burning a joss stick, burning two sticks, breaking a sweat, and then finishing. Once one’s attention and spirit are drawn away again, the time spent could very well become hard to estimate, exceeding all expectations.

Wielding a hammer in the east and a club in the west might seem like mastering a lot, broadly developing, but within the limited time, it is actually very difficult to become proficient. They are not ordinary substances; even geniuses and freaks of nature would need lots of time to control them.

Not to mention that time is currently pressing, one never knows when those beings eternally fallen into darkness will stir up storms of blood and conflict; the time left is actually far less ample than imagined.

“Let’s keep it for now, we’ll talk about it later.”

That’s all for now.

As for the remaining Dragon Scale Holy Fruit, the Seven-colored Phoenix Feathers, Star Divine Tree, and the Primordial Spirit Spring, Jiang Hui did not check them one by one but took them all out together.

After that, he planted the Star Divine Tree at the foot of the mountain behind his house, and spread the Primordial Spirit Spring beside the World Tree.

To nurture the tree with the Spring, to nourish the tree with it.

As for the Dragon Scale Holy Fruit and the Seven-colored Phoenix Feathers, he gave both to Old man Lin for him to allocate accordingly.

In this aspect, Old man Lin was actually more proficient.

…

…

In front of the city gate.

Figures were coming and going in an endless stream.

Those two Golden Burial Officers who had traveled from afar had already arrived here, Lin Laoer was processing their passes.

After handing the processed passes to San Zang and Shen Ming, Lin Chen furrowed his brows, seemingly having something to say, but ultimately he couldn’t help it and abruptly asked, “You… are you also here to sign up, wishing to become disciples of the Holy Land?”
