Chapter 1694 - 1677: Cosmic Spiritual Treasure
The Spirit Capital of the Blue Demon Star Domain is vast and majestic, with clusters of ancient stars forming a super large star domain, akin to the Imperial City of the human Emperor Court.
A myriad of human martial artists gather here, countless strong warriors, accompanied by the Blue Demon Spirit Army numbering over a billion, intimidating the entire Blue Demon Star Domain.
News of the Spirit King Competition has now spread throughout the Blue Demon Star Domain, causing a frenzy and commotion.
Each Spirit King, not to mention their own strength, can command one million of the Blue Demon Spirit Army. Aside from serving the Blue Demon, they may use their troops privately to suppress an area, their status and influence far exceeding any city lord of an ancient star.
Thus, the position of Spirit King naturally draws envy.
There are rumors that the Blue Demon King’s five law enforcement envoys are painstakingly searching for geniuses to cultivate.
Moreover, the various forces within the Spirit Capital are engaging in open and covert struggles for the position of Spirit King, adding anticipation to the competition two years from now.
The Spirit Capital of the Blue Demon Star Domain, within an ancient castle on the ’Bright Moon’ ancient star.
"I really didn’t expect so many people to compete for the Spirit King’s position!"
Dressed in a black robe, with flowing long hair, Xiao Ye sits cross-legged, his face full of emotion.
He’s been in the Spirit Capital for several days now, learning much about it.
This ancient star is one of the territories of Leng Ming, one of the Blue Demon’s five law enforcement envoys. Looking across the entire star, apart from him, there are hundreds of other human martial artists.
Like him, these martial artists have come for the Spirit King Competition in two years, brought here by Leng Ming from the Blue Demon Star Domain, cultivating on this ancient star with strong power, most are Earth Spirit Realm experts.
"There are only three slots for the Spirit King position in two years."
"And just under Senior Leng Ming’s banner alone, there are hundreds of martial artists, not to mention there are four other law enforcement envoys. The competition is too fierce, standing out is not easy at all."
Thinking this, Xiao Ye shakes his head.
No matter what kind of strong warriors appear in the Spirit King Competition, what he needs to do now is to enhance his strength; everything else is empty talk.
The ancient castle he resides in is covered by an array, no one can enter without his permission.
Swoosh!
Xiao Ye quickly arrives at the Time Tower’s fifth floor to cultivate, waves of cosmic spiritual energy surge in like a waterfall pouring towards his Tai Chu Spirit Seed.
In the Outer Domain Battlefield of the True Spirit Continent, the mysterious ’Qi’ he sensed was actually cosmic spiritual energy.
It’s even said that the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi of the True Spirit Continent is a diluted product of cosmic spiritual energy.
Cosmic spiritual energy is far superior to Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and can give birth to life. After a Spirit Rank expert condenses a Spirit Seed, cosmic spiritual energy serves as the medium to nurture the seed to sprout, bloom, and bear fruit.
However, the Tai Chu Spirit Seed within Xiao Ye seems like stubborn stone, showing no change despite the cosmic spiritual energy irrigation.
A year passes in the Time Tower’s fifth floor, yet the Tai Chu Spirit Seed remains unchanged.
"Tai Chu Spirit Seed... truly absurd!"
"At this rate, maybe after two years in the outside world, my strength will still be at a standstill."
Xiao Ye exits the Time Tower reluctantly, flipping his palm to take out a green stone about palm-sized from the Space Ring, brimming with energy, incomparable to any treasure on the True Spirit Continent.
"Green Light Stone Milk!"
Looking at this stone, Xiao Ye’s eyes light up with excitement.
Spirit Rank experts absorbing cosmic spiritual energy is one way, besides that, there are cosmic spiritual treasures, which can also be used to stimulate Spirit Seeds.
Take for instance the Green Light Stone Milk in Xiao Ye’s hand, a common cosmic spiritual treasure, regarded as a kind of medicinal material.
Every so often, Leng Ming would bestow it upon the geniuses of this ancient star. To date, Xiao Ye only holds this one, having been reluctant to use it.
"To use it directly like this, really seems a bit wasteful."
"Cosmic spiritual treasures have far stronger effects than the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures from the True Spirit Continent. I’m not sure if they can withstand the second layer of the Time Tower’s ability."
"If not, it’ll be destroyed."
Xiao Ye murmurs softly, using his consciousness to communicate with the Time Tower.
Instantly——
Buzz!
The second layer of the Time Tower lights up, a transcendent torrent gushes forth, directly enveloping the Green Light Stone Milk in his hand.
Rustle!
In an instant, the Green Light Stone Milk trembles, cosmic spiritual energy pours in, converging into Xiao Ye’s palm.
"It must succeed!"
Under his tense watch, the years journeyed by this Green Light Stone Milk seem extended, its surface marked with the patina of time.
Crack!
Under Xiao Ye’s gaze, the surface of the Green Light Stone Milk actually cracks open, a ball of divine radiance nurturing within, bursting with purple light.
"Oh my god!"
"Could this be Purple Light Stone Milk?"
Xiao Ye’s eyes widen suddenly, full of joyous astonishment.
He’s heard that among Spirit Rank, the common cosmic spiritual treasure is Green Light Stone Milk, then there’s the rare Purple Light Stone Milk, and the highest form White Light Stone Milk, each level with naturally varying effects.
As for Purple Light Stone Milk, even the five law enforcement envoys might not have much, typically reserved for personal use.
As for White Light Stone Milk, that’s even more scarce.
"This is a cosmic spiritual treasure for individuals at the law enforcement envoy level!"
"Let’s test its effect!"
Impatiently, Xiao Ye absorbs the Purple Light Stone Milk in his hand.
Boom!
With the entry of the Purple Light Stone Milk’s energy, a rampant surge of energy causes Xiao Ye’s face to flush, his physical body seeming ready to burst, frightening him into desperately suppressing it, stabilizing his body.
"It really works!"
Under Xiao Ye’s mental attentiveness, the previously rock-solid Tai Chu Spirit Seed gently quivers, the sound of ancient scripture booming, hinting at some change.
"To make the Tai Chu Spirit Seed bloom and bear fruit requires a vast amount of cosmic spiritual treasures!"
"With the Time Tower in hand, I am confident I can be the first in this era to cultivate the Taichu Ancient Scripture to the Saint Transformation level!" Xiao Ye is filled with excitement.
After arriving on this ancient star, he’s been exploring the connection between the Time Tower and Taichu Ancient Scripture, finally now gaining some insight.
The ability of the Time Tower is almost prepared specifically for the Taichu Ancient Scripture!
Relying on the Time Tower’s ability, he feels the likelihood of the Tai Chu Spirit Seed blooming and bearing fruit is very high!
With this discovery, whenever Leng Ming delivers new Green Light Stone Milk, he enhances its effect using the Time Tower.
Utilizing the Time Tower’s second layer consumes a great deal of Spirit Demon King blood. Thankfully, Xiao Ye previously stored some, avoiding the worry of exhausting it.
Days of cultivation pass quickly, and soon a year has gone by.
On this day——
Within the ancient castle, Xiao Ye’s body trembles, the Tai Chu Spirit Seed within him radiates divine light, sounding as if it’s fracturing.
