Chapter 1129: Information on the Spirit Sea
Jian Chen walked around the divine realm aimlessly with Zhou Chuyun and the others. They had no plans of leaving.
“Esteed senior, you’ve already obtained the divine water of the world and more shouldn’t appear in such a short amount of ti.” Zhou Chuyun spoke from behind Jian Chen. He had already ingested the Class 6 Radiant Spirit Pulls from Jian Chen, so he had recovered from almost all of his injuries. He was mostly fine now.
After a mont of silence, Jian Chen passed a small portion of the divine water to Zhou Chuyun and Liu Jun. He also gave them a few 15th Star quaking thunders and said, “I don’t want to leave for now. Your lives will be threatened if you follow around in the depths of the divine realm, so you should return first.”
“No, senior Yang Yutian. We’ve followed you for the entire journey, and we’ve already benefited greatly. How can we take sothing that belongs to you?” Shocked by the unexpected action, Zhou Chuyun and Liu Jun dared to not accept the items from Jian Chen.
“Take it. If it weren’t for you leading the way, I wouldn’t have been able to obtain the divine water of the world. Plus, we already agreed to split things with you before.” Jian Chen shoved the divine water of the world and the 15th Star quaking thunders into their hands before bidding farewell to them. He had obtained far too little divine water. It was probably only enough for Hong Lian to recover her strength. The several dozen elites of the Fla rcenaries also needed divine water of the world to increase the quality of their souls and their talent so they could reach Saint Ruler.
As a result, Jian Chen needed to find more of the water.
Zhou Chuyun, Liu Jun, and the other Heaven Saint Master reluctantly separated with Jian Chen. They embarked on their trip back. During the few days they were with Jian Chen, they had experienced a delight they had never experienced before while crossing through the divine realm, filling them with enthusiasm. The entire experience would beco sothing they would cherish. However, they also knew that this feeling was not permanent because their relationship with Jian Chen was not very deep. They were just cooperating.
“Senior Yang Yutian, I will rember you forever.” Before they separated, Zhou Lin stared at Jian Chen in admiration and respect. Her eyes were filled with reluctance.
Jian Chen watched them disappear into the distance. He had silently helped Zhou Chuyun so much only because they were both of the sa race.
Jian Chen seed to have seen his past self in the people who worked so arduously to beco more powerful in this foreign land.
Jian Chen dismissed his thoughts. He suddenly said, “The four of you have stalked for so long. It’s about ti you appear.”
With that, four old n silently erged from the bushes behind him. They did not make any sound, like ghosts.
Jian Chen turned around and calmly looked at the four of them. He coldly asked, “Why are you following ?”
The four old n did not respond. They calmly stared at him and only after quite a while did soone talk, “Sir, it seems like you’ve only co to the divine realm in search of the water.”
“So what if that’s the case?” Jian Chen remained the sa.
“Sir, we might be able to cooperate if you want to obtain even more of the water,” the old man continued.
“Cooperate? Have you seen traces of more water?” A gleam of light flashed through Jian Chen’s eyes and his interest was imdiately piqued.
“We haven’t seen other traces, but we know the source,” said an old man.
“What? The source of the divine water?” Jian Chen was shocked. He could no longer keep his composure, “Tell what the source is like.”
“Many years ago, we once ventured into the depths of the divine realm and caught sight of a lake bathed in rainbow light from afar. Divine water of the world poured out endlessly from the middle and most of it dropped into the lake. Only a very little amount hovered above the lake, floating about aimlessly through the entire divine realm,” said the old man. He did not give any information as to where the lake was.
“A lake that shines with the colors of the rainbow. I- is that the spirit sea?” Jian Chen was greatly shaken. According to what they had said, it was extrely likely that they had seen the spirit sea. Once he found the spirit sea, the water would no longer be a problem.
“We can work together. What are your conditions?” Jian Chen agreed without an hesitation. The information they had revealed was just too great of a temptation to him.
“We have no conditions. We only wish to travel together because there’s extrely powerful formations that protect the source. It’s very difficult for the four of us to break through, so we need helpers. Once we get through the formations, you can take the divine water, and we’ll take what we need,” said the old man.
Pausing slightly, Jian Chen looked at the four of them as his eyes lit up. He gently smiled, “The item you four need must be very valuable, right?”
“It is indeed valuable to us, but it is useless to you.” A tal sword appeared in the old man’s hands as he continues, “This is the weapon the four of use. It is not condensed from energy. It is instead forged from teorites over several years. The item we need is a material for the sword, which can make it even more powerful.”
Jian Chen stared fixedly at the tal sword. He had been in this world for so long, yet all the weapons used by the experts he had co across were condensed from energy. Even Emperor Armants were the sa. They were the solidification of energy, yet the four old n actually used tal swords as their weapons, clearly misfits compared to the rest of the world.
“Quite an extraordinary tal sword, I can actually feel the souls of many living beings in it,” Jian Chen praised. The four old n before him were not simple. They took a different path of cultivation, which could be understood just from their weapons.
Jian Chen agreed with the four old n. He was very curious about their cultivation thod, but he did not ask about it so boldly. Everyone had their secrets.
The four old n lead the way, bringing Jian Chen in the direction of the source. After a conversation, Jian Chen had learned their nas. They were very odd nas—A’Da, A’Er, A’San and A’Si. These were their real nas.
TL: The reason why their nas are regarded as weird (other than the funky combination with the apostrophes) is that the ‘A’ at the start of nas is usually used for a nickna, such as calling a character both you and I know, Changyang Hu, as A’Hu. The other parts of their nas, after the apostrophe, compounds the strangeness because it basically ans ‘one,’ ‘two,’ ‘three,’ and ‘four’.
Jian Chen had even learned that the four of them were actually brothers with the sa parents.
The three middle-aged n Jian Chen had killed in the cave a few days before were not connected to the four of them at all. They were only followers they had co across by chance.
Jian Chen and the four of them did not discuss many things in detail. They were silent people and did not have much to say, always maintaining a cold face.
Roar!
Suddenly, an earth-shaking roar rang out. It caused the ground to shake as a hundred-ter-tall ape with an axe on its shoulder furiously charged at Jian Chen.
Jian Chen’s face slightly changed. He said, “He’s coming for . I never thought he’d still be able to find . Let’s go.” With that, Jian Chen and the four old n quickly ran off. They pushed their speed to the limit, throwing off the ape very soon.
“The ape’s one of the most powerful existences in the divine realm. It’s reached the 16th Star and possesses extrely terrifying power, but fortunately, speed is his weakness, or we’d be in deep trouble,” A’Da said with a deep voice as fear appeared in his eyes. He understood the situation of the divine realm extrely well.
However, the ground far away began to tremble again without much ti. The huge ape had actually caught up again.
Without any choice, the five of them began to run once again, shaking off the huge ape.
This ti, they stopped after running over a hundred kiloters. A’Si could not help but ask, “Yang Yutian, how did you provoke that ape? Why’s it sticking to you and unwilling to let you go?” The four of them looked at Jian Chen. They felt victimized. They had done nothing at all, yet they had to suffer with Jian Chen and face the pursuit of a terrifying ape.
“Before you started fighting over the divine water, I took away their child. Their child must have returned to them already. I just never thought that the ape would harbor resentnt and would keep chasing after ,” replied Jian Chen.
The four old n looked at each other. They needed to hand it to Jian Chen for recklessly taking away the child of the two apes.
A’San pulled out a bag of powder from his Space Ring. He said, “This is the powdered bones of feral beasts from the divine realm. Sprinkle it over you, and it should cover your scent. It’ll prevent the ape from slling you.”
Jian Chen accepted the powder with doubts. After a quick examination, he gently picked up a little of it and sprinkled it over him after confirming there was nothing wrong with it.
He soon realized that A’San’s bone dust really was effective. The ape had indeed stopped pursuing after Jian Chen had sprinkled the powder on him.
“The sense of sll of these beasts is very sensitive. The bone powder can only cover our scents temporarily. It won’t hide us completely from the feral beasts, so we need to erase our presence as we travel and alert fewer beasts. The road ahead is relatively long. Very few people co to these depths to cull the feral beasts, so many extrely powerful existences have appeared after so ti. They’re very hard to deal with,” explained A’Da as he carefully made his way to the very depths with Jian Chen.
The four of them had clearly entered the depths often. They possessed an extrely great understanding of the place. Not only could they tell what powerful feral beast was active in a certain region from a few small hints, they could even deduce what special and powerful types of feral beasts lived there depending on the environnt and geography, allowing them to avoid many problems.
There was even one ti when they had entered the territory of the Soaring Ants. The four old n saw a few hints and backed out as soon as possible, avoiding the dangerous ants.
Jian Chen admired the four old n for their rich experience. He had even began to wonder whether or not the four of them had been born in the divine realm because they knew the place too well. They virtually had the power to avoid disaster.
