The ancient Dragon Clan ancestral land has existed for an immeasurable amount of time. The Divine Dragons that come here to die do not harvest the heavenly materials and treasures of this place, which is why its resources are incredibly abundant.
Among those that Li Cheng discovered, some of the divine qi fluctuations are no weaker than the Divine Elimination Plant he initially obtained, which piqued Li Cheng’s interest.
Li Cheng, with Ao Wuzhan speeding along, soon came upon a mountain that was illuminated by a burst of rainbow light in front of them.
“That rainbow light in front of the dragon tomb should be the Dragon Soul Fruit. Its main effect is to enhance the Divine Soul of divine dragons, which is useless to me. You go get it, elder!” Li Cheng said.
Ao Wuzhan smiled awkwardly. He had said that Li Cheng could take whatever treasures he wanted from this place, but he hadn’t expected the first one to be suitable for himself.
However, what Li Cheng said was the truth; the Dragon Soul Fruit was useless to the Human Tribe.
After all, the ancestors buried here are of the Divine Emperor’s Realm, and most of the divine medicines that grow here are probably suitable for divine dragons.
After taking the Dragon Soul Fruit, Ao Wuzhan handed over five to Li Cheng, saying with a smile, “The Dragon Soul Fruit is very beneficial to any member of the Dragon Clan. You also have friends from the Dragon Clan, so you might as well keep a few.”
Without refusal, Li Cheng took the five Dragon Soul Fruits and stored them in the Divine World, placing them beside Ao Qianchi, who was cultivating.
They changed direction and continued on. Before long, they came across a mountain covered in vines that emitted Buddhist light!
“It’s the Rainbow Divine Vine! It seems that the predecessor buried here primarily cultivated the Buddhist path, hence the growth of such a divine object in their tomb after death,” Ao Wuzhan said.
Li Cheng nodded, “The Rainbow Divine Vine can be used in alchemy or directly ignited. When lit, the resulting smoke purifies the mind, enhancing comprehension. The Rainbow Divine Vine here has grown for who knows how many eons, and a single whiff of its smoke could boost comprehension by a hundredfold.”
A glimmer of hope flashed in Ao Wuzhan’s eyes. He was, of course, aware of the Rainbow Divine Vine and its special effects, a divine medicine that only grew in the tombs of high Buddhist monks.
“The Rainbow Divine Vine ignites easily but burns very slowly. A section one foot long can last ten thousand years to burn. With so much here, we can never use it all up. Elder, what if we split it in half?” Li Cheng suggested with a smile.
The Rainbow Divine Vine in front of them was mostly as thick as an arm, the most useful part indeed, with a combined length of a thousand miles. Each taking five hundred miles, Li Cheng could benefit the Confucian Sect, and Ao Wuzhan could benefit the Dragon Clan.
“Then I’ll be basking in Brother Li’s kindness!” Ao Wuzhan clasped his fist in gratitude, smiling.
Each took five hundred miles of the Rainbow Divine Vine, making sure not to harm its base, so it could continue to grow back in the future.
Continuing their journey, they soon saw a Sword Tree at the peak of a mountain, shining with a metallic luster.
The Sword Tree stood a hundred feet tall, like a sword piercing the heavens.
Li Cheng was secretly amazed. This was not a divine medicine, but rather, a special plant formed from the Swordsmanship Accomplishment of the predecessor buried below after death.
“If this were forged into a longsword, it would likely become a top-tier Law Divine Artifact. Since Brother Li is an artifact-refining master, why not give it a try!” Ao Wuzhan suggested.
Without any hesitation, Li Cheng collected it, planning to refine it once he returned.
Dragon Soul Fruit, Rainbow Divine Vine, Sword Tree. Each item was a treasure, and the two continued on their way.
“This treasure inside the tomb is no less impressive than the previous three, but let’s leave it be,” Li Cheng said.
The tomb, as large as a mountain, emitted a faint luster, signifying the extraordinary nature of its contents.
But since it was located inside the tomb, taking it would be like grave robbing, something Li Cheng of course could not do in front of Ao Wuzhan.
Ao Wuzhan didn’t say much more. He glanced in the direction of the Dragon Emperor, meaning it was clear he might have wanted to dig it out and see for himself if the Dragon Emperor were not present.
Approaching another mountainous tomb, they saw that it had already burst open, indicating that the predecessor buried inside had turned into a Dead Spirit and joined the Dragon Emperor’s side, hence the state of the tomb.
However, in the opened tomb grew two Five-color Flowers, each large enough to comfortably envelop a person, emitting the breath of the Five Elements, perpetually regenerating.
“Those are at least ninth-grade Divine Medicines, a pity they’re balanced too evenly in the Five Elements. Only those who harbor Five Elements Power can refine it, or practice with the Five Elements Power it emits,” Ao Wuzhan explained.
This type of divine medicine was quite inconvenient. Despite its top grade, it was difficult to find someone able to absorb its power since very few cultivated all five elements simultaneously, and even fewer had such a balanced power within them.
Li Cheng chuckled, “I happen to know two such individuals. I’ll give it to them when the time comes!”
After securing the Divine Medicine, the pair continued their search.
Just then, a powerful surge emanated from afar, and a terrible miasma of death quickly spread!
“Something’s gone wrong!”
Ao Wuzhan hastened towards the disturbance, with Li Cheng quickly following suit.
Arriving back at the lake, they saw that the waters of the Styx once again filled it, while the Dragon Emperor was above, exerting all his might to suppress it.
Ao Wuzhan immediately went to aid in the suppression, “Father, what happened?”
The Dragon Emperor’s expression was grave, “During Ao Cang’s refining, one of the dragon corpses released a pearl of Essence of the Styx River. We all underestimated the situation. The predecessor actually had an Essence of the Styx River concealed within their body!”
“Essence of the Styx River?” Ao Wuzhan looked at the Dragon Emperor in confusion; he had never heard of such a thing.
“If you read more, you’d know. The records in our clan mention that the Styx River contains this Essence, resembling a pearl. Although it lacks spiritual intelligence, it’s a special Dead Spirit born from the Styx and will release its waters when threatened!” the Dragon Emperor explained.
