Man is in the heavens, parasitic on the way

Chapter 116 Huiyang Fresh Water

“Could it be that the level of the kun wood is too high, and the green liquid just now was too little?” Fang Ming stroked his chin, thinking of this possibility.

After all, the kun wood is a world tree, its level is extraordinarily high, much higher than the spiritual roots naturally conceived by heaven and earth, and the Immortal Medicine formed by the fall of an Immortal King. It's possible that just a single drop didn't show any effect.

Back then, the Mystic Heaven Immortal Vine that was revived by returning yang true water also used several drops before showing any effect.

Although he had this thought, Fang Ming didn't pour too much green liquid onto the wood chip at once, but instead did it one drop a day.

Ten days later, Fang Ming looked at the withered yellow wood chip that showed no change. He was certain that relying solely on the green liquid from the palm heaven bottle was definitely not enough to strengthen the remaining vitality of the kun wood.

“That's right, the green liquid in the palm heaven bottle doesn't have the ability to bring the dead back to life. Back then, Old Devil also revived the Mystic Heaven Immortal Vine after refining the returning yang true water.” Fang Ming thought to himself.

“Returning yang true water, if I remember correctly, perhaps something similar related to cold marrow can be found near the Kun Peng Dojo.” Thinking of this, Fang Ming's divine sense extended outwards, once again paying attention to the outside world.

Outside, in a cave filled with surging, incredibly brilliant firelight, Shi Hao sat cross-legged on the dry ground, guiding the firelight to continuously temper himself.

This was the Yang Pole Cave at the bottom of the deep sea. This terrain was created by Kun Peng back then, modeled after the place where it tempered its body in its youth.

“So it's here. Although with my power, I can generate flames similar to sun essence fire myself and don't need to specifically search for flames, perhaps there might be some treasure in a place like this…”

Thinking of this, the knuckle-sized seed floated up and drifted towards the depths of this cave filled with extreme Yang flames.

As for Shi Hao, he was immersed in cultivation at this time and didn't even notice Fang Ming's departure.

“What is that guy going to do?” In Shi Hao's hair, Little Pagoda wondered in its heart, “Could there be some treasure in this place?”

“This place was where Kun Peng tempered its body in its youth, perhaps there truly is some treasure hidden here.” Such a thought flashed through Little Pagoda's mind, and it then thought with some regret, “Too bad, I didn't think of this before!”

In the depths of the cave, Fang Ming quietly broke through the thick stone wall and arrived at the true deep part of the cave entrance.

The Yang energy here surged, and the Yang fire was incredibly hot, like being in the core of a solar star.

Of course, it couldn't compare to the core of the sun, after all, it was just a place for small cultivators in the Transforming Spirit realm to temper their bodies.

However, even the true core of the sun wouldn't scare Fang Ming; it couldn't cause him any harm.

In the deepest part of the cave, incredibly hot Yang fire emerged out of thin air, requiring no so-called 'fuel'.

“It's actually a natural landform, not created by Kun Peng with its divine abilities.” As he went deeper, Fang Ming was a little surprised.

Through observing with his divine sense, Fang Ming discovered that this place was a landform containing dense solar energy, not something created by Kun Peng.

Soon, Fang Ming arrived at the deepest part of the cave.

This was an incredibly vast underground space where the true solar fire burned fiercely, truly like a solar star being suppressed here.

In terms of power, the true solar fire here had risen to a terrifying level, far beyond the level outside.

“These true solar fires here belong to Yang fire, and according to the material requirements for refining returning yang true water, it's more than enough…” Various key points for refining returning yang true water appeared in Fang Ming's mind.

According to the secret recipe for refining returning yang true water, the key material is still the cold marrow.

Cold marrow, essentially a type of jade marrow, is a material for refining artifacts and pills conceived within ten-thousand-year-old ice jade.

As for the role of the true fire, it is only used to temper the cold marrow to achieve the balance of Yin and Yang.

The flame is not the key, the key is the cold marrow, and whether the balance of Yin and Yang can be achieved.

He didn't come here for the flames, but to see if there were any divine materials or immortal gold here.

For him now, all divine materials and immortal gold could quickly improve his cultivation.

Especially immortal gold related to Yin, Yang, and the Five Elements, that was an excellent elixir.

Yin, Yang, and the Five Elements are the foundation of heaven and earth. Refining these divine materials and immortal gold, and absorbing the innate great Dao laws within them, could accelerate the growth of his Cave Heaven World.

His divine sense surged out, and Fang Ming carefully began to search.

Although the temperature here was terrifying, it was nothing to Fang Ming. His divine sense was incredibly condensed, and the high temperature here had no effect on him.

“This is?” In his inner world, Fang Ming showed a look of surprise, and his divine sense surged frantically into a fireball that looked like the sun.

That fireball was several thousand feet in size, formed from very condensed true solar fire.

However, this was just the surface. In its internal core position, the true fire burned fiercely, and a three-foot-long branch, entirely golden, covered with golden patterns, and bearing golden leaves, quietly hung in the air.

“A branch of the Fusang Immortal Tree!?” Feeling the incredibly dense solar energy, Fang Ming was incredibly surprised.

The Fusang Immortal Tree, also known as the Solar Immortal Tree or Solar Ancient Tree, was once an immortal root born from chaos.

Now, that immortal tree was no longer a simple spiritual root or immortal root; it was evolving towards a world tree, and it was almost successful!

Undoubtedly, the golden branch in this mass of true fire was precisely a branch of the former Solar Immortal Tree.

His divine sense swept over, and Fang Ming discovered the information left by Kun Peng not far from this three-foot branch.

She stated that this insignificant section of the Solar Immortal Tree branch was a small opportunity she left for those who came later, provided they could reach this place.

“It's a pity, this section of the Solar Immortal Tree branch has completely lost its vitality, otherwise it could be ripened using the green liquid to see what effect it would have if the branch regrew.” Fang Ming felt a little regretful.

Space rippled, and the three-foot-long Solar Immortal Tree branch disappeared, taken into his inner world.

Fang Ming wasn't in a hurry to refine this section of the immortal tree.

Although he could no longer sense any vitality, he decided to wait until he refined the returning yang true water and try again.

If it couldn't be revived, then he would consider it again.

After taking the section of the immortal tree branch, the environment here remained the same. The Yang energy here was not released by that immortal tree branch.

On the contrary, it was because the environment here was suitable for preserving the branch of the Solar Immortal Tree.

“Let's go to the Mystic Ice Abyss and see if there's anything similar to cold marrow there.” Thinking of this, the knuckle-sized seed flickered and flew away from the cave.

Near the entrance of the cave, Shi Hao was still using the extreme Yang fire here to temper his body, immersed in cultivation.

Seeing Fang Ming appear, Little Pagoda immediately transmitted its voice, filled with curiosity: “Tower Brother Xuan Tian, I wonder what treasure is in the depths of this Yang Pole Cave?”

“It's nothing remarkable, just a section of the Solar Immortal Tree branch that Kun Peng left behind. It's not of much use.” Fang Ming said indifferently.

A three-foot branch is indeed difficult to be of much use.

This was for him; for other cultivators, it would be of great use.

Combined with other rare spiritual medicines, it could completely refine a Solar Divine Pill with this as the main ingredient.

Such a divine pill would be of great use even at the Heavenly God realm!

“Solar Immortal Tree, that's an immortal root!” Little Pagoda was surprised.

This immortal tree had appeared in some forbidden lands in the Primordial Era and was very famous in the Upper Realm.

“Tower Brother, I still have some things to attend to, so I'll take my leave for now.” As Fang Ming's voice fell, he instantly disappeared.

“That guy…” Little Pagoda was stunned, then immediately thought of something, a flicker of light, and it also disappeared.

Since there was a treasure in the Yang Pole Cave, then other places might naturally also have treasures.

The knuckle-sized bone pagoda followed its senses and went straight to the Meteorite Valley.

From the engravings in the Kun Peng Nest, it understood that that place was entirely composed of extraterrestrial meteorites, and it was very likely to contain true divine materials.

As for Fang Ming, he traveled all the way to the deepest part of this sea area, into a frozen abyss.

This was the Mystic Ice Abyss, a place of extreme cold.

Deep beneath the sea, a vast abyss stretched endlessly, and the deep blue mystic ice froze everything.

A knuckle-sized seed, like a miniature world, hung in the air, and transparent ripples spread out, entering the thick mystic ice.

With a 'buzz', the knuckle-sized seed trembled slightly, and like an arrow leaving the bowstring, it shot directly into the incredibly thick mystic ice, piercing through it.

In front of it, this incredibly solid mystic ice seemed not to exist, unable to hinder it in the slightest.

“It's here!” Inside the ten-thousand-foot mystic ice, the knuckle-sized seed stopped moving and remained suspended within the boundless mystic ice.

In front of the seed, a piece of pure white mystic ice jade stood, completely out of place with the surrounding deep blue mystic ice.

This piece of pure white ice jade emitted extremely dense cold energy, and one could vaguely see white liquid flowing within the mystic jade.

“This piece of ice jade must be more than ten thousand years old, at least several million years. The jade marrow conceived within it is very similar in nature to cold marrow, so I'll use it to try.” Fang Ming concluded after careful observation.

Subsequently, space fluctuated, and the ice jade born in the extremely cold glacier was collected by him.

In his inner world, Fang Ming carefully sensed the properties of the jade marrow and nodded with satisfaction. It was indeed similar to cold marrow.

“I'm still missing some spiritual medicines. There are many spiritual medicines in the Kun Peng Nest, and there should be some with the required medicinal properties.” With a flash of light, Fang Ming's figure disappeared.

From the outside, the Kun Peng Nest truly looked like a giant nest, but entering the inside was completely different.

The inside was very exquisite, a small world, extremely vast, with various buildings.

The interior of the Kun Peng Nest was very large, and even with many people coming at this time, it still appeared very empty.

After entering its interior, Fang Ming sensed for a moment and then flew directly towards the place with the most abundant spiritual energy.

The Kun Peng's Dojo had restrictive formations suppressing it, but the formations were incomplete and could not completely suppress him; he still possessed combat power far exceeding the cultivators here.

'Swish' The knuckle-sized seed emitted a brilliant glow, and countless runes flowed, and a figure dressed in green, with an ordinary appearance, manifested.

This figure, who looked exactly like Han Li, sneered and muttered to himself: “Today, this Kun Peng Dojo is my Celestial Venerable Han's territory!”

In front of an important area, many cultivators were incredibly eager, wanting to break through the restrictive formations and obtain the many spiritual medicines inside.

“Da da da…”

Clear footsteps came, as if stepping on the hearts of the many cultivators, making their breathing difficult, and they all turned their heads in horror to look in the direction of the sound.

Soon, a young man dressed in green, with an ordinary appearance, and his hands clasped behind his back, walked unhurriedly and appeared in the sight of the many cultivators.

Seeing this person appear, the cultivators present felt their hearts tighten, as if they had seen a great beast from the Primordial Era, and sweat immediately broke out on their bodies, making them extremely nervous.

“Could it be that a Divine Being has appeared? The Demon Lord Venerable before didn't have such power!”

“Could it really be a Divine Being?”

“Why has the ability to limit cultivation in this secret realm failed?”

...

The hundreds of cultivators present were trembling with fear in their hearts.

The young man scanned the area and said indifferently: “Why aren't you juniors quickly retreating? This kind of opportunity is not something you can covet!”

As his voice fell, boundless and vast divine power erupted, transforming into divine light that soared into the sky, spreading in all directions, completely suppressing the cultivators present.

“Divine… Divine Being…”

“Divine Being Senior… We are from Heavenly God Mountain, Senior… perhaps you know our ancestor…” Under this vast divine power, someone said intermittently.

“Stop talking nonsense with me here, quickly leave the Kun Peng Dojo.” The young man in green was very indifferent and said without question, “This Venerable's patience is limited, don't be ungrateful!”

As his voice fell, the vast divine light spread out, like a layer of heavenly curtain sweeping across.

Immediately, the cultivators present did not dare to hesitate in the slightest and immediately turned around and flew away.

That divine power was not fake, and that Divine Being was clearly not suppressed by this place and could fully display his strength.

No matter how many of them, these cultivators, came, it would only be death.

After the cultivators present left, the young man muttered to himself with some regret: “It's a pity, this is Kun Peng's Dojo, and the interior is complex, so it's impossible to clear the area directly.”

At the very beginning, there was an opportunity to clear the area directly, but he didn't think of doing so at that time.

“Forget it, anyway, most of the things here are useless to me.” Thinking of this, Fang Ming also extinguished the idea of clearing the area.

Stepping forward, he came in front of a medicinal field.

Obviously, this was an opportunity that Kun Peng deliberately left for future generations.

Otherwise, with her status, she definitely wouldn't plant these spiritual medicines for no reason.

For her, besides Immortal Medicine, perhaps only some divine medicines with special effects could catch her eye.

Although these spiritual medicines were precious in the eyes of ordinary cultivators, in Kun Peng's eyes, they were probably not much different from weeds.

The restrictive formations on the medicinal field were difficult for ordinary people to break, but they were nothing to Fang Ming.

The young man in green stepped out, green light spread, countless runes diffused, and the many restrictive formations covering the medicinal field manifested, then shattered and dissipated into nothingness.

The medicinal field was not large, only a few mu of land, but there were indeed many spiritual medicines, all of which were old medicines that had been there for many years.

The person in green that Fang Ming had transformed into waved his sleeve, and the entire medicinal field disappeared.

He directly took them into his Cave Heaven World.

Then, the person in green that Fang Ming had transformed into, Celestial Venerable Han, appeared repeatedly inside the Kun Peng Nest and collected several medicinal fields.

After collecting all the medicinal fields he found, Fang Ming began his real exploration.

The news of the Divine Being 'Celestial Venerable Han' entering the Kun Peng Nest spread, and for a time, the Venerables who learned the news became much more restrained and did not dare to act arrogantly.

Since one Divine Being had come, then two, three, or even more might come.

However, in reality, the so-called Divine Being didn't pay attention to them at all, but was immersed in exploration.

Two days later, Fang Ming left the Kun Peng Nest.

As he expected, there weren't many divine materials in the Kun Peng Nest, and he didn't gain much after searching for two days.

Ten days later, Fang Ming successfully refined the 'returning yang true water' by relying on local materials.
