Chapter 353: Sign In, World Tree Seed!
Edited by: Mochiusagi
It was a pity that the huge ancient stone gate in front of Su Qin was too extraordinary. Although it was “existing,” it carried a world-breaking aura. If Su Qin did anything against it, it would definitely cause some sort of backlash.
“Your Excellency, are you alright?” Seeing Su Qin just staring at the stone gate, Taoist Wan Wan standing next to him thought that Su Qin was worried and comforted him: “Your Excellency’s strength, even within the Immortal Gate, is at the top. Even if several Holy Masters really come, they may not be able to do anything to Your Excellency…”
Although the Holy Masters were all at the Peak of the Divine Ruin Phase and possessed Life Treasures, if Su Qin wanted to hide, no one could stop him. He could even hide from the Demon God’s Eye.
Taoist Wan Wan naturally didn’t know that Su Qin was just thinking about destroying or sealing the stone gate. If Taoist Wan Wan did, he would be beyond shocked for words.
This stone gate was built by the Supreme Powerhouses to lock the ‘coordinates’ of the Human World and the Immortal Gate. Over the past 10,000 years, who knows how many space storms had slammed into this stone gate, but it was still not shaken. It could be said that this stone gate may have even surpassed Life Treasures.
Even a Supreme Powerhouse attacking might not be able to destroy the stone gate.
Su Qin simply ignored Taoist Wan Wan’s concerns. At this moment, most of his attention was still focused on the stone gate.
“This stone gate…”
His heart suddenly moved, “If this stone gate itself has at least existed for thousands of years and the material it’s made from is rare, perhaps it contains a lot of ‘Dao Accumulation’?”
Thinking of this, Su Qin circled around the huge ancient stone gate. After confirming that he did not miss anything, he said in his heart: “System, Sign In.”
[Congratulations to the Host for Signing In successfully. Obtained the ‘World Tree Seed’.]
A cold, mechanical voice sounded in Su Qin’s ear.
“World Tree Seed?”
Su Qin’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Although he didn’t know what the World Tree seeds were, just from the word ‘world’, he could deduce that the treasures he just obtained were extraordinary.
In the blink of an eye, Su Qin’s thoughts quickly sank into the System Storage, and soon found a fist-sized seed in the corner.
This seed looked chaotic, as it slowly spun. It was bright and deep like the void. Su Qin just watched it and he seemed to see a world growing within the seed.
“The World Tree Seed. Once it takes root and sprouts, it will grow into a World Tree, opening up a vast real world.” Su Qin thought silently in his heart.
Before seeing this ‘World Tree Seed’, the System had already instilled everything about this seed into Su Qin’s mind.
It was because of this, that Su Qin realized how terrifying this World Tree Seed was.
Open up a vast real world!
Even 10,000 years ago, when all of the Powerhouses joined forces to break through the void, what they opened up was nothing, but a small incomplete world. It only managed to exist to this day by plundering an infinite amount of vitality and avenues of law from the Human World.
But this World Tree Seed claimed to be able to truly open up a world?
How incredible was this?
Although Su Qin Cultivated the War God Domain and could create a world within once he reached its extremes, even Su Qin himself did not know whether he could reach that step. The so-called evolutionary world was just the [War God Records]’s theoretical limit.
To top it off, the [War God Records] also made a Supreme Powerhouse, Hou Yuan, invest a lot into it, both in time and resources. Yet, this World Tree Seed claimed that as long as the time was enough, it would grow into a World Tree and open up a real world, which was simply appalling.
If there were still Supreme Powerhouses in the world and they knew that Su Qin had a World Tree Seed in his hand, they would definitely try their best to snatch it away from him.
“However, why do I feel that this World Tree Seed is so familiar?” Su Qin looked at the slowly rotating World Tree Seed in the System Storage and felt a little surprised.
Su Qin was very sure that he had not seen any treasures related to the World Tree Seed before today, so how could he feel unusually familiar with it?
“Is it the Cave World?”
Images flashed through Su Qin’s mind, one after the other. As an Earth Immortal at the Return To Origin Phase, his memory was very powerful. Almost in an instant, Su Qin had already recalled everything from the moment he stepped into the Martial Path to the present. After combing through them, he finally fixed on the Cave World.
To be precise, he stopped at the branches of the Ancient Demon Trees in Demon Cloud City, Cathode City and other big cities in the Cave World.
The Cave World was unlike the Human World. It was divided according to ‘domains’, and within each big ‘domain’, there were hundreds of thousands of big cities.
In every big city, there was a branch of the Ancient Demon Tree.
At this moment, the World Tree Seed gave Su Qin a feeling that was very similar to a branch of the Ancient Demon Tree.
In fact, this similarity was not in aura. While the branch of the Ancient Demon Tree could gather monstrous demonic energy, and although the World Tree Seed was chaotic, it contained a pure aura. Not to mention similar, they were completely different.
But instinctively, Su Qin believed that both were essentially similar to each other.
“Is it possible that the Ancient Demon Tree in the depths of the Cave World is a kind of World Tree?” Su Qin narrowed his eyes slightly.
Su Qin’s incarnation had been in the Cave World for numerous years. Naturally, he had heard a lot of rumors about the Ancient Demon Tree. It was said that it was as tall as the sky. If it weren’t for the Ancient Demon Tree supporting it, the Cave World would have collapsed long ago.
Even the top existences in the Cave World like the Demon Gods was said to ‘live’ on a certain trunk of the Ancient Demon Tree all the year round, which showed the incredibleness of the Ancient Demon Tree.
Originally, Su Qin thought that the Ancient Demon Tree was an artifact refined by the Demon Gods, but now it seemed that it was a World Tree. That also meant that the relationship between the so-called Demon Gods and the Ancient Demon Tree was not what Su Qin originally imagined.
“Forget it.”
“It’s too early for me to think about this stuff right now.”
Su Qin’s thoughts turned quickly, before finally calming down.
Regardless of whether the Ancient Demon Tree was a World Tree or not, it had nothing to do with the current Su Qin.
What Su Qin needed to consider now was how to make this World Tree Seed take root and grow.
Su Qin then waited until the next day to confirm if he could no longer Sign In at the huge ancient stone gate, before returning to Chang’an City.
“What a pity.”
Su Qin felt slightly regretful.
Originally, Su Qin was planning to ‘pick up’ some more treasures from the stone gate. Even if they were not as good as the World Tree Seed, something was better than nothing.
But it seemed that Signing In the World Tree Seed had exhausted all of the ‘Dao Accumulation’ of the stone gate, which had caused Su Qin’s idea of Re-Signning In to become just empty talk.
“However, this World Tree Seed alone is worth more than countless Destiny Artifacts.”
Although Su Qin regretted it, he was already satisfied. After all, the World Tree Sed could grow into a complete world. How could it be compared to a Life Treasure?
“Follow me and let’s leave.” Su Qin glanced at Taoist Wan Wan, hesitated for a bit, but did not intend to kill him.
Su Qin was no saint, but an Earth Immortal specializing in Primordial Spirit was rare, let alone at the Return To Origin Phase?
If he kept Taoist Wan Wan, Su Qin may be able to use him in the future.
In addition, Su Qin had already put a seal on Taoist Wan Wan. With it, he could decide the life and death of Tao Wan Wan in a single thought.
“Yes.” Meanwhile, Taoist Wan Wan had no idea that he had just walked past the gates of Hell. He followed Su Qin cautiously and headed towards Chang’an City.
After a few hours, Su Qin and Taoist Wan Wan arrived at the palace.
“Senior Wan Wan.” When Fairy Tai Yin saw Daoist Wan, she was stunned and in disbelief.
Although Fairy Tai Yin was a Quasi-Saintess of the Tai Yin Holy Land, the status of Taoist Wan Wan was not low. He was a disciple of a Supreme Being in the Violet Mansion Holy Land and came from the Primordial Spirit lineage.
In terms of status, he was no weaker than Fairy Tai Yin.
“It is me…” Taoist Wan Wan’s expression was slightly complicated.
“It’s good that you know each other, you two can catch up.” Su Qin looked at Taoist Wan Wan and Fairy Tai Yin. He did not stop the two from talking. Rather, he stepped out and disappeared.
Both of these people’s life and death were in the hands of Su Qin, and even the thoughts in their hearts were monitored.
Su Qin was naturally reassured.
In the underground palace under Chang’an City.
“Now that I have reached the Return To Origin Phase, it will be difficult to go further in a short period of time.” Su Qin sat cross-legged, thinking silently in his heart.
“As for the [Buddha’s Palm], I can continue to comprehend it, but unless I become a Supreme Powerhouse and master the Third Form, it will be difficult to produce qualitative changes.”
“As for the [War God Records], the [Burning Sun Divine Art], etc., if I want to continue to Cultivate them, it would require a lot of resources, Space Crystals, Fire Element Pills, etc., which I do not have for the time being.”
Su Qin suddenly found that he was in a bottleneck and it was difficult to move even an inch forward.
“Martial Dao Cultivation is indeed a difficult step by step road. I don’t know how those Supreme Powerhouses Cultivated…” Su Qin sighed with emotion.
He had long expected the difficulty of Cultivating in the Earth Immortal Realm. It may only have three phases and not nine layers like the Legend Realm, but who knows how much more difficult it was than the latter.
Cultivating in the Legend Realm was gradual. As long as one takes it slowly, with enough talent and opportunities, sooner or later, one could reach the Peak Legend Realm one day.
But the Earth Immortal Realm…
Divine Separation Phase and Return To Origin Phase aside, just the Power of Space that the Divine Ruin Phase needed to comprehend was illusory.
Although the Power of Space was everywhere, even mortal ants could come into contact with it. But regarding how to understand and break it, no one knows.
“Let’s take a look at the World Tree Seed.”
Su Qin calmed down and thought, a seed appearing in front of him.
In addition to this World Tree Seed, Su Qin also collected the tower-shaped treasure. It was just that there was a brand left by the Great Beginning Holy Lord in the treasure. If Su Qin wanted to use it, he would spend a lot of energy to erase the brand first.
“How to make the seed germinate?”
Su Qin looked at the slowly rotating World Tree Seed in front of him, and suddenly had a headache.
Ordinary seeds would naturally be planted in soil to absorb the nutrients of the earth and germinate. But the World Tree Seed was a plant that could open a world. How could one treat it like an ordinary seed?
“How about vitality and Spirit?”
Su Qin’s thoughts moved. In an instant, the vitality and Spirit within a radius of 100 miles gathered, suspended in Su Qin’s palm. Then under Su Qin’s control, all of them were poured into the World Tree Seed.
Unfortunately, no matter how strong the vitality and Spirit was, once it reached within three feet of the World Tree Seed, it would evaporate. It could not get close to the seed in the slightest.
“So vitality and Spirit are useless…”
Su Qin had expected this.
Next, Su Qin tried various methods, but to no avail.
In the end, Su Qin put a drop of his blood essence on the seed.
This time, the World Tree Seed had obviously reacted. The seed swirled around, gobbling up the drop of blood.
Then…
Then there was no more reaction.
Even when Su Qin gave it more blood essence, it was useless.
However, Su Qin did feel that he seemed to have some sense of connection with the seed. He could feel the surging vitality within the seed.
“If I had this much vitality, I’m afraid I could live for 100,000 years…” Su Qin was amazed.
While Su Qin was Cultivating and thinking about how to make the World Tree Seed take root…
A year passed in a blink of an eye.
In the past year, the recovery of the wave of vitality in the world had become more and more turbulent. In a trance, the vast and endless ocean of vitality was rolling, pulling the wave of vitality in the world to rise continuously, before it finally reached a certain critical point.
[Hum~]!!!
The whole world was shaking. If someone stood above the Nine Heavens, they would find that the entire battlefield was like some wild beast, gushing endless vitality and Spirit.
“This is?”
In the palace, in front of the Right Spring Area in the East Palace, Fairy Tai Yin looked at the sky and whispered to herself, “Is the Second Critical Point of the recovery of vitality coming?”
At the same time, inside the majestic underground palace in Chang’an City.
Su Qin, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes and looked up.
“It’s finally here.”
