Still, most of it lacks practical significance for Lin Chen.
Many events had already occurred.
Even if he knew about them, there was nothing he could do to alter them.
Even the most formidable beings wouldn’t be able to traverse ti and space, returning to previous points in ti.
The news about a Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus that was not even a hundred years old was unremarkable among all the information, but it caught Lin Chen’s attention.
The Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus is an extrely unusual flower.
This particular species of lotus does not produce lotus seeds nor can it be used for dicinal purposes.
However, its petals can be used for refinent.
Using the petals of the Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus as the main ingredient, combined with other materials, it’s possible to refine an astoundingly powerful defense treasure—the Nine Dragons Lotus Platform!
The Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus is a very rare divine artifact among all species of lotus.
However, it cannot be transplanted elsewhere, and it grows extrely slowly.
It takes a millennium for the Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus to mature fully, and only does it bloom.
It needs at least another two thousand years to reach the level where it can be used to refine the Nine Dragons Lotus Platform.
Before then, it isn’t of much use.
Either it matures fully, becoming precious beyond asure, or it doesn’t mature, being completely worthless.
Compared to a growth cycle of three millennia, a Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus that is less than a hundred years old naturally isn’t viewed as important.
At most, people would mark its location, planning to return and pick it when its ti is almost up.
This is the Blackstone Mountain Range, where demonic beasts run wild.
Having soone guard a Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus here for three thousand years is clearly unfeasible.
Leaving the market, Lin Chen heads straight for this Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus.
The Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus is located within a canyon.
The Immortal Spirit Qi here is abundant.
ltwater streams down from the mountains, forming a deep pool where the Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus grows.
By this ti, only a few leaves of the Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus had sprouted.
Lin Chen began setting up an Array Formation between the canyon to hide the scenery and prevent large spiritual energy fluctuations.
Once everything was settled, Lin Chen brought out his Shengling Pearl and began accelerating its maturity.
Immortal Spirit Qi was infused into the Shengling Pearl, where it was then transford into vital energy.
This was rapidly absorbed by the Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus.
Soon, the slightly curled leaves of the Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus began to unfurl gradually, and the light green color began to darken.
It’s working!
Lin Chen cald his mind and focused on conveying the Immortal Spirit Qi to the Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus through the Shengling Pearl.
This was a rather lengthy process.
Even though the Shengling Pearl had an acceleration feature, it couldn’t speed up the thousand-year growth cycle.
Lin Chen wasn’t in a hurry.
After all, for cultivating in seclusion, a year or two was nothing at all.
As ti passed, the once sapling like Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus grew wildly and quickly filled the vast pond.
Each of its leaves were extraordinarily large, expressing an overpowering aura as if they were “infinite green lotus leaves reaching out to the sky.”
A massive bud slowly blood into a beautiful lotus flower.
The diater of the lotus was over ten ters, and each petal was shimring with rainbow light, making it look solemn and sacred.
The sweet aroma in the air was intoxicatingly delightful, making one wish they could get lost in it forever.
When the Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus fully matured, rainbow-colored radiance shot up to the sky as if announcing the appearance of a divine artifact.
Fortunately, Lin Chen had prepared an Array Formation beforehand, which blocked the radiance inside.
Still, so radiance and aura seeped out.
“Finally matured…”
Before Lin Chen could even finish his sigh of relief, a fierce and overpowering aura abruptly appeared, and then, sothing imnsely large crashed into the Array Formation set up by Lin Chen.
The Array Formation set up by Lin Chen was only intended to hide its aura, so it shattered instantly under such a violent impact.
The entire valley and deep pool, all concealed by Lin Chen, were suddenly exposed under the sunlight.
At the entrance to the valley, a giant white ape at least 200 ters tall was staring in their direction.
On its shoulder, there was a young man, and behind him floated two white-haired elders.
All three, along with the ape, fixated their gaze upon the colossal lotus flower within the valley, simultaneously exclaiming in surprise.
“Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus!”
The young man on the shoulder of the white ape laughed heartily, “No wonder White Seven kept running this way, and I couldn’t stop him, haha…”
Lin Chen’s expression shifted slightly, but he didn’t panic.
The Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus had fully matured at this point.
With a wave of his hand, the huge lotus was severed from the stem, floated up, fell into his hand, and was promptly stored in his spatial ring.
The young man laughed, “My friend, put that Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus down, and we won’t make it difficult for you.
You can go freely.”
Lin Chen answered calmly, “And why should I?”
The young man laughed, “Although the Blackstone Mountain Range is remote, it is within the sphere of influence of our Winter Thunder Sect.
We marked that Nine Dragons Immortal Lotus long ago, silently waiting for it to mature.
We thought it would take a while longer to mature fully, but we didn’t expect it would mature ahead of ti.
It seems we ca too late…”
Lin Chen laughed, “The Blackstone Mountain Range, which stretches for thousands of miles, even the Boundless Sword Sect doesn’t dare declare it to be under their territory, forbidding other cultivators from adventuring or harvesting here.
Isn’t your Winter Thunder Sect being a bit exaggerated in making such a claim?”
