Great Cultivator Shen Ze sat on the stone mat, not needing to receive the information transmitted from it, as this information had long been passed down in his sect.
He skillfully focused his mind on the stone mat, using a Secret Technique to guide his senses to perceive the Heavenly chanism Garden.
"What’s going on?" In his perception, there was no sign of any Heavenly chanism Treasure.
He was sowhat incredulous. Although in history, the Divine Palace had sotis nurtured very few Heavenly chanism Treasures, and there was even an instance where only one was born.
But never had there been a case where not a single Heavenly chanism Treasure was nurtured. The abundance of resources outside indicated there was no malfunction in the operation of the Divine Palace, so how could the Heavenly chanism Garden, after centuries of recuperation, still fail to produce a Heavenly chanism Treasure?
In the normal environnt of the Cultivation World, it might take millions of years to nurture a Heavenly chanism Treasure, but the Heavenly chanism Garden is a special space, tested through ti.
Great Cultivator Shen Ze withdrew his mind, stood up from the stone mat, and walked around it a few tis, carefully inspecting it but found nothing amiss.
In fact, he couldn’t see anything out of the ordinary; he was simply comparing the condition of the stone mat to the records from his sect.
Finally, he sat on the stone mat once more, unwilling to give up, and once again invested his mind into the stone mat, starting to guide the Secret Technique anew.
"Pfft!" A mouthful of fresh blood spewed from his mouth.
This was due to the disorder of his mind under the impact of rage and anxiety, causing internal injuries.
Master Ji Chuan and Great Cultivator Liao Yi anxiously awaited, noticing that Great Cultivator Shen Ze had been inside for longer than usual.
This made them start to speculate, if not for knowing that each Great Cultivator in the Heavenly chanism Garden had only one chance to collect a Heavenly chanism Treasure, they would have suspected Great Cultivator Shen Ze of trying to take the whole treasure for himself.
Just as they were pondering this, they saw Great Cultivator Shen Ze walk out.
But at this mont, Great Cultivator Shen Ze seed like all his vitality and spirit had drained away, his already sowhat tattered robe now stained with a good amount of blood.
"Shen, what happened?" Master Ji Chuan asked in astonishnt.
He rembered that the Heavenly chanism Garden was not supposed to be dangerous, so how did Great Cultivator Shen Ze beco like this after being inside for such a short ti?
"No need to argue, the Heavenly chanism Garden has not nurtured any Heavenly chanism Treasure this ti!" Great Cultivator Shen Ze replied bitterly.
"Impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
The two Great Cultivators at this point stopped arguing, speaking in unison.
They also knew that Great Cultivator Shen Ze’s likelihood of lying was extrely low.
And if a Heavenly chanism Treasure were obtained from the Heavenly chanism Garden, it would have an aura that couldn’t be concealed, at least not imdiately.
Great Cultivator Shen Ze lacked the aura of a Heavenly chanism Treasure on his person, indicating he returned empty-handed.
The two Great Cultivators had no more disputes, taking out their own jade tokens, opening the doors to enter the Heavenly chanism Garden.
Great Cultivator Shen Ze sat on the ground, his ntal state severely impacted; this ti, both his sect and he himself had paid a significant price to enter the Divine Palace.
But the harvest was just Great Cultivator-level resources, most of which had to be handed over to the sect as repaynt for helping him secure access to the Divine Palace’s resources.
"No, soone must have beaten to it!" he suddenly exclaid.
The Heavenly chanism Garden couldn’t be empty; surely a Great Cultivator had obtained the Heavenly chanism Treasure before him, seizing the opportunity ant for him.
It’s highly probable the Heavenly chanism Garden nurtured only one Heavenly chanism Treasure, which was taken by the Great Cultivator who entered earlier, preventing him from detecting the treasure’s existence.
And the major suspect of this earlier entry was the mysterious Li Shiming.
This ti, before entry, they had already fought with the three Great Cultivators of the Demonic Path, and they won the opportunity to enter the Heavenly chanism Garden, while the three Great Cultivators of the Demonic Path chose the Divine Beast Garden.
It’s not that the Heavenly chanism Garden was necessarily more important than the Divine Beast Garden; the Heavenly chanism Garden is fundantal for establishing a Grotto Heaven, but contracting a compatible Divine Beast could ensure more stable growth of the Grotto Heaven.
There are quite a few Half-step Great Powers, but truly growing to maturity is rare, and having a compatible Divine Beast could increase the chance of successfully advancing to Great Power.
But for Peak Great Cultivators, without a Heavenly chanism Treasure, there is no foundation for the first step, rendering everything else aningless.
The three Great Cultivators of the Demonic Path went in the other direction, and even though they were initially ahead, later disturbed by the Golden Winged Dapeng, trying to change course would still have encountered the Golden Winged Dapeng.
The only uncertainty was Li Shiming, who proceeded three ’two-hours’ ahead of them.
"Li Shiming, I will not rest until we are at odds!" Great Cultivator Shen Ze muttered quietly after discerning the cause and effect.
Seizing opportunities is a great enmity in the Cultivation World, especially one that affects the advancent of a Great Cultivator to Great Power, making it a mortal enemy.
Master Ji Chuan and Great Cultivator Liao Yi arrived in front of the stone mat while arguing, initially wanting to sit on it first, but upon actually arriving, they hesitated.
They feared the shattering of hope; the Great Cultivator who sits on the stone mat first is the one whose hope shatters first.
