Chapter 476: Edict: Take Root and Sprout!
The Great自在Heavenly Demon thought Zhang Chen was boasting. That was the authority of Heaven and Earth! Even beings at the Fruit Realm only borrowed it; how could anyone grasp it?
But considering Zhang Chen had already grasped the Earth Authority, it seemed acceptable if he grasped a Wood Authority as well?
It was just that Zhang Chen's abilities came inexplicably, as if he didn't know where he got them. The Great自在Heavenly Demon was certain he had been by Zhang Chen's side the whole time, and the latter had never cultivated wood-attribute techniques. If Zhang Chen had already mastered wood-attribute techniques, would he have been afraid of the Jianmu branches?
But thinking about Zhang Chen's abilities, which one didn't come inexplicably? The Great自在Heavenly Demon cautiously looked at Zhang Chen with both eyes: "How did you master the Wood Authority? Have you really mastered the Wood Authority?"
Zhang Chen ignored the Great自在Heavenly Demon's probing. He wouldn't let the Great自在Heavenly Demon discover his secrets. If that old fellow lost his sense of awe, who knew what trouble he would cause.
Zhang Chen carefully sensed the Jianmu branch in his hand, and the next moment, the wood-attribute authority was activated: "Edict, let this branch take root!"
As Zhang Chen's golden words fell, a strange fluctuation flashed in the void and poured into the Tongtian Jianmu branch in his hand. Under that peculiar fluctuation, the Tongtian Jianmu branch actually grew roots, and the branch transformed into a seedling, completely coming to life.
"Power of the Great Dao! This is the power of the Great Dao! He actually mastered the authority of the Wood Dao! Heavens, how did this kid do it? Could he be the reincarnation of the Great Dao?" The Great自在Heavenly Demon felt the power flashing through the void, his eyes filled with disbelief and horror.
However, Zhang Chen ignored the changes in the Great自在Heavenly Demon's mentality and carefully sensed the changes in the Tongtian Jianmu branch in his hand. He could feel that as the Jianmu branch grew roots, the entire Jianmu branch came to life, seemed to breathe, began to absorb unknown energy from the void, and then a wisp of inexplicable essence was emitted from the leaves. The quality of that essence was extremely high, with a hint of innate artistic conception and the rhythm of innate laws flowing.
"That is innate essence. This essence is extremely precious and is the key to cultivating immortality. However, now it is already in the acquired era, and the world cannot tolerate innate essence. Even if innate essence is born, it will be quickly absorbed by the world or decomposed by the acquired energy in the world." The Great自在Heavenly Demon looked at the innate essence emitted by the Jianmu branch and quickly opened his mouth to absorb it.
"Innate essence?" Zhang Chen looked at the wisps of wonderful aura emitted by the Jianmu branch, and his eyes lit up.
"If you transplant this seedling into the Ascension Pool, it can help your Ascension Pool condense more energy, and the innate essence can also repair your Ascension Pool. Perhaps after countless years, your Ascension Pool can be repaired. With this Jianmu branch absorbing innate essence, the Ascension Pool can absorb the innate essence and transform it into the energy of the Ascension Pool. The liquid condensed by your Ascension Pool can increase more than tenfold every day."
Zhang Chen's eyes lit up even more upon hearing this. The liquid in the Ascension Pool was a good thing. Not only could it temper his body and turn him into the legendary immortal body, but it could also be converted into points for his use. The more of this stuff, the better.
Zhang Chen looked at the Tongtian Jianmu seedling in his hand and saw a trace of spiritual light flowing on the entire seedling that it did not have before. The entire seedling exuded vigorous vitality. Previously, the Jianmu seedling continued to preserve itself by devouring the lifespan of living beings. Now, the seedling was completely resurrected as a new individual, able to draw energy from an unknown time and space to support itself, and was completely alive.
Zhang Chen sensed the inside of the seedling and saw countless chains of order flowing within the Tongtian Jianmu seedling. Those chains of order intertwined to form a huge 'silk' of laws, which transformed into a complete individual and formed a complete and complex innate law.
However, Zhang Chen's cultivation was limited, and he could not understand the rules of the Jianmu's internal laws, so no matter how powerful this wood-based law was, it had nothing to do with him.
Zhang Chen stroked the Jianmu seedling, and the entire Jianmu seedling conveyed a trace of intimacy. Zhang Chen felt that he had a trace of mysterious connection with the Jianmu seedling in the dark, as if he could communicate with the Jianmu seedling in front of him.
Zhang Chen spat out the Ascension Pool from the Bashe space, and then put the Jianmu seedling into the Ascension Pool. As the Jianmu seedling fell into the Ascension Pool, the Ascension Pool vibrated slightly, and a strange reaction came out.
Then, after the Jianmu seedling spat out the innate energy, mysterious runes lit up on the Ascension Pool, absorbing the escaping energy and turning it into the energy of the Ascension Pool. Then, the divine restriction in the Ascension Pool operated, and a drop of colored liquid was born.
"What a powerful function! The Tongtian Jianmu combined with the Ascension Pool is simply a match made in heaven!" Zhang Chen looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes filled with heat.
According to this conversion speed, he might be able to hope for a complete transformation into an immortal in the future.
"This is the King of Ten Thousand Woods, the Tongtian Jianmu! It can absorb energy from the heavens and myriad worlds. Do you think this is ordinary grass and trees?" The Great自在Heavenly Demon looked at Zhang Chen with disdain: "Right now, it is only in the seedling state. If it grows up, one breath can fill the energy in the Ascension Pool, and one breath can supply the energy cycle of the entire world."
Zhang Chen secretly clicked his tongue, then put the Ascension Pool back into his mouth, a look of joy on his face: "This harvest is great!"
Not only the Tongtian Jianmu, but also because he mastered the Wood Authority, he could command the world's vegetation. He could also look forward to the future. If he could take the opportunity to peek into the Great Dao of Life and thus achieve immortality, that would be even better.
If he could obtain any spiritual roots in the future, and use the Wood Authority to revive them all, wouldn't he make a fortune?
For example, the life tree coffin of the Emperor's daughter. If he could revive it and let it take root and sprout again, and he absorbed its life force day and night, wouldn't he be able to achieve immortality?
Zhang Chen suddenly discovered that his Wood Authority might be a little lacking in combat, but it was still very useful for assistance.
Moreover, he could mobilize the wood attribute power between heaven and earth, and even have some insights and influences on the innate wood attribute in the Five-Colored Divine Light, and his mastery of the Five-Colored Divine Light was even stronger.
As the Ascension Pool was taken into the Bashe space, the Great自在Heavenly Demon reluctantly withdrew his gaze: "Boy, how did you obtain the Wood Authority?"
He was really too curious. Should this kind of authority be the authority of the Great Dao? Can it also be mastered by human power?
"I got it when I wanted to get it, what's so strange about it." Zhang Chen said: "This Wood Authority is nothing more than that, it's too useless! I can't see any effect at all."
"That's because you kid don't have the ability to understand its wonderful use, how can you blame the Wood Authority for being useless?" The Great自在Heavenly Demon angrily sprayed Zhang Chen. He felt that this grandson was Versailles:
"For example, the substitute technique, you can use the world's vegetation to die for you. For example, the technique of longevity, you can absorb the world's vegetation and make your life infinitely extended. For example, you can use this magical power to transform into a billion-year-old innate spiritual root, with the various attributes of the innate spiritual root. What kind of great power will it be at that time? The life and death of the world's vegetation is in your mind, how domineering is this? You kid is a waste, and you blame the magical power for not working. Why doesn't God send down a thunderbolt to kill you."
The Great自在Heavenly Demon cursed, his voice full of hatred for iron and steel.
Zhang Chen was stunned after hearing the words of the Great自在Heavenly Demon. He never expected that the Wood Authority would have such wonderful uses. But with his current Taoism, it is impossible to rely on himself to understand the Wood Authority.
"Could it be that I have to upgrade the Wood Authority to unlock more abilities?" Zhang Chen said secretly.
Although he obtained the Wood Authority, according to his understanding, his current Wood Authority is only at LV0 level. If he wants to obtain more abilities, he has to upgrade it himself.
"If I can obtain a way to extend my life from it, I may hope to be immortal." Zhang Chen said secretly.
Zhang Chen's mind flashed with various thoughts, and the Great自在Heavenly Demon leaned up and said: "Boy, I know there is a benefit, you must do it..."
"Don't talk about it, wait until I master the pill furnace in front of me." Zhang Chen interrupted the words of the Great自在Heavenly Demon. This guy is a big pit, and he will be taken astray and planted in it if he is not careful.
"It's about the curse on your body! Although your curse of turning into a toad is suppressed by the Six-Syllable Mantra, it has not been eliminated after all, has it? If you listen to me and go to that secret realm, you will definitely be able to resolve the curse technique on your body." The Great自在Heavenly Demon muttered.
Zhang Chen directly flicked his finger and scattered the Great自在Heavenly Demon. He has no time to waste now. Although the curse technique is troublesome, the limit of his lifespan has come. If he is delayed by other things, and he dies when his lifespan is exhausted, then he will die too unjustly.
"What is most important to me now is not to transform my body into an immortal body, but to convert the energy of the Ascension Pool into points, and first upgrade the Wood Authority. If I can obtain the authority to seize the essence of vegetation and extend my life, I can not go to find the Longevity Tree Coffin. The Longevity Tree Coffin is guarded by the number one master of the Great Interior, especially the Sky Punishment Spear, whose power is even more terrifying. It is not easy for me to grab food from the tiger's mouth under his nose, and I may even put my own life in it." Zhang Chen felt a little anxious. He always has to prepare another way for himself. If he fails to seize the Longevity Tree Coffin, he can still have a second way to go, and he doesn't have to be trapped on one road.
"Let's accumulate energy and upgrade the Wood Authority first." Zhang Chen sighed softly and made up his mind.
