5: Transformation Grass, Heavenly Void Gate!
"With my backer here, life or death doesn't matter, just do it!"
"The Host cares for his Junior Sister, destroyed the Great River Sect, and acted as a backer. This act deeply moved the Host's Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters, giving them the feeling of being protected."
"Reward: Seven Treasures Jin Zhu."
Shen Xuansheng looked at the bead emitting golden divine light that gradually appeared in his hand: "Seven Treasures Jin Zhu?"
The System's voice rang out: "Host, the Seven Treasures Jin Zhu is one of the seven treasures of the seven treasures wonderful tree. The seven treasures wonderful tree in the Host's hand is only the basic version. Without the seven treasures, its sweeping ability is useless."
"Only when the Host collects all seven treasures of the seven treasures wonderful tree will it reach its ultimate form. It can sweep away anything; within its range, any Magic Treasure will lose its effectiveness."
Hiss!!
Shen Xuansheng knew the Magic Treasure in his hand was the seven treasures wonderful tree, and he was indeed somewhat confused by its effects. After all, the seven treasures wonderful tree currently in his hand could only manifest vines for sealing and attacking, which was a far cry from the memories of his past life.
The seven treasures wonderful tree, also known as the Seven Treasures Wonderful Sweeping Tree, can sweep away all Magic Treasures. Before the Seven Treasures Divine Light, the effects of any Magic Treasure will be neutralized, an ability that can be described as terrifying. Even if it encounters the Five-Colored Divine Light, which is also famous for sweeping away Magic Treasures, it would still be effective.
An Innate Spirit Treasure, how could it have an empty reputation?
Shen Xuansheng immediately took out the seven treasures wonderful tree. Upon meeting the tree, the Seven Treasures Jin Zhu fused directly into it, and one spot on the seven treasures wonderful tree lit up.
Looking at the lit-up part, Shen Xuansheng realized that the trunk of the seven treasures wonderful tree had exactly seven sections.
"So that's how it is."
Shen Xuansheng infused his mana into the seven treasures wonderful tree. Its vines instantly spread out, surrounding him.
"It's even more powerful than before!"
"Now, even if I face an Immortal, I can trap them!"
Shen Xuansheng put away the seven treasures wonderful tree, and the vines dissipated on their own.
"Old Shen, let's go!"
Before Shen Xuansheng could react, he was instantly carried onto the clouds by the Life-Slaying Sword... to the Tianxu Sect.
Located in the Divine Continent Realm, at the border of the Eastern Region and Western Heaven.
The Divine Continent Realm has four major lands: the Eastern Region where the Jiesheng Sect is located, the Western Heaven where the Western Heaven Sect is located, the Southern Continent of the Kunlun Sect, and the Northern Abyss where the Snow God Palace is located.
Of course, these are just the general four lands. The Divine Continent Realm is vast; besides these four lands, there are countless smaller regions.
At this moment, the Tianxu Sect was shrouded in gloom.
"Sect Leader, once the huaxu grass matures, our Formation won't be able to block its energy fluctuations. By then, other powerful experts will surely come to fight for it," an old woman said worriedly.
One stalk of huaxu grass, ten thousand years of cultivation achieved.
The meaning is simple: consuming one stalk of huaxu grass grants ten thousand years of cultivation.
If it were just that, it wouldn't be much. There are many treasures in the world, and plenty can increase cultivation by even more than ten thousand years. Some powerful Sects can even refine Medicinal Pills to increase cultivation.
The only difference is that the huaxu grass has two other abilities.
Bloodline Atavism!
Spatial Origin!
In the face of these two abilities, the ten-thousand-year cultivation increase cannot even be called the main effect of the huaxu grass; calling it a bonus would not be an exaggeration.
"The huaxu grass is an ancient divine herb."
"The world only knows that the huaxu grass can increase cultivation. If that were all, there would be no need to worry. What I fear is that those old fellows all know the true effect of the huaxu grass," another Elder of the Tianxu Sect said.
"We have nurtured this huaxu grass for a full sixty thousand years. If the Sect Leader can comprehend the Spatial Origin from it, she will surely reach a higher level. At that time, even the major Sects wouldn't dare to look down on our Tianxu Sect. There must be no mishaps with the huaxu grass!"
For the Tianxu Sect, the huaxu grass was their savior.
"The life force of the three Seniors is exhausted, and they are about to perish. Before they do, the Sect Leader must consume the huaxu grass!"
The Elders of the Tianxu Sect looked toward the Beautiful Woman in the main seat. She wore a silver robe, and faint fluctuations of mana could be seen, showing her powerful cultivation.
"Although the huaxu grass is good, those people won't take action personally."
The Beautiful Woman pondered and said, "I have already sensed that people from the Western Heaven Sect have entered the territory of our Tianxu Sect."
"Sect Leader, we must protect the huaxu grass. No matter who it is, if they should be killed, kill them!"
"Exactly. Our Tianxu Sect has reached its current state; there's no need to worry anymore. If the huaxu grass remains and the Sect Leader breaks through, we'll be fine. If it's lost, after the Seniors perish, our Tianxu Sect will decline sooner or later."
"We have nothing to lose. By taking a risk, there's still a future!"
The Tianxu Sect Leader slowly stood up: "Pass my command: any outside Cultivator who steps within a thousand miles of our Tianxu Sect shall be killed without mercy!"
"Before the huaxu grass matures, clear out all outsiders!"
The Elders: "We obey the Sect Leader's command!"
After the Elders withdrew, the Beautiful Woman reached out her hand. Faint spatial fluctuations appeared between her fingers: "Ten thousand years since Immortal Ascension, and I still cannot master the Origin of the Dao. The huaxu grass is my last hope..."
"Whoever dares to touch it, I will kill!"
Tianxu City.
The largest city under the Tianxu Sect.
"From this day forth, Tianxu City is closed. No outsiders are allowed entry!"
As Tianxu City was about to close, three bald Cultivators stepped forward.
"Your Excellency, isn't doing this a bit against the rules?"
"Indeed, we came..."
Before the bald man could finish, a head flew into the sky, then fell to the ground and rolled a few times.
Swish!
The Flying Sword returned. A woman approached with a cold gaze, the sword landing in her hand: "Whoever dares to question shall die!"
The crowd gasped when they saw the woman.
The true Disciple of the Tianxu Sect Leader, Eldest Senior Sister Leng Jueyi!
"I heard this is related to the survival of the Tianxu Sect. It seems the rumors are true!"
"Those three were Disciples of the Western Heaven Sect, yet the Eldest Senior Sister killed them without hesitation!"
The remaining two bald men looked at Leng Jueyi, their faces twitching: "Leng Jueyi, are you trying to start a war between our two Sects?"
Leng Jueyi chuckled.
"A war between two Sects?"
"So what?"
"Today, you all shall die!"
As Leng Jueyi spoke, her Flying Sword struck again, turning into a divine light and rushing toward the two bald men.
Slash!
The golden protective light on the two bald men had just appeared when it was directly shattered by the Flying Sword. Their bodies below their heads were instantly blown into bloody mist.
"Outsiders, I'll give you time. Three days from now, if you are still in the city, this will be your end!"
"From now on, Tianxu Sect Disciples will patrol day and night. Anyone acting suspiciously will be killed without mercy!"
"When the time comes, don't say I didn't warn you."
"Consider yourselves warned!"
In a restaurant by the street, on the second floor by the window.
A young man in golden robes was particularly eye-catching. Watching Leng Jueyi's actions below, his lips twitched: "A bit overbearing, but it works. It's a pity the Western Heaven Sect was used as the sacrificial lamb this time."
The young man across from the golden-robed youth smiled faintly: "Killing the chicken to scare the monkeys."
"Unfortunately, it won't scare you."
The golden-robed youth shook his head: "This kind of action can only intimidate the small fry. I doubt a single Disciple from the four major Sects will be deterred."
"At most, it will turn a chaotic situation into a battle for supremacy among a few factions."
The young man opposite him looked at his confident companion: "Just the four major Sects?"
"Hasn't it also failed to deter you, Sima Wangquan?"
Sima Wangquan stood up and said proudly: "I alone am a major Sect!"
"The huaxu grass shall belong to me, Sima Wangquan!"
