Bodhi Transformation Saliva

Shen Wen walked up to Xiong Tao and asked directly:

"Where did the bodhi transformation saliva on that purple spirit grass come from?"

Xiong Tao' massive body visibly trembled. It lowered its head, its two front claws restlessly scratching the ground.

"This... this..."

It stammered, its eyes darting away.

Shen Wen didn't speak, merely focusing his thoughts slightly.

"Roar—"

A low Dragon roar sounded again, and purple-blue Dragon scales instantly covered his entire body. The phantom image of a True Dragon Head majestically appeared behind him.

The terrifying Dragon Might was palpable, enveloping the entire valley.

Xiong Tao flopped down even lower with a "plop," its head nearly buried in the dirt, its voice trembling:

"I'll talk! I'll talk!"

"In the deepest part of my cave... there is a small space, left behind by an incredibly powerful Void Ancient Dragon. Only creatures possessing the Void Ancient Dragon Bloodline can enter."

It panted heavily and continued to explain:

"Only creatures with the Void Ancient Dragon Bloodline can sense the entrance and enter... the purer and deeper the Bloodline, the further one can advance inside the space!"

"That purple spirit grass was something I picked up on the outskirts of the space... The green liquid clinging to it was condensed Qi that drifted out from the space!"

Shen Wen retracted his Dragon scales, returning to his original appearance. He raised an eyebrow, pondering the situation.

A small space left by a Void Ancient Dragon... the Black-Corner Region... Zi Yan... this space must have been left by Zhu Kun.

As the various pieces of information Shen Wen knew combined, a relatively clear outline formed in his mind.

Before Zhu Kun headed to the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Mansion years ago, he likely worried he wouldn't return, so he left the newborn Zi Yan in the relatively safe Black-Corner Region mountain range.

After all, given Zi Yan's Bloodline, no Demonic Beast in a place full of them would dare offend her.

In fact, almost every Demonic Beast with Dragon Clan Bloodline would be Zi Yan's subordinate.

At the same time, he left this small space, likely to prepare growth resources for his daughter.

However, after Zi Yan was born, perhaps due to a coincidence of Opportunity, she never discovered this space.

And now.

Zhu Kun has been trapped in the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Mansion for thousands of years.

This space, having lost the maintenance of its master's power, has begun to collapse and dissipate.

Once this space completely collapses, the Bloodline restriction inside will vanish, allowing the bodhi transformation saliva to be obtained by others.

"No wonder..."

Shen Wen muttered softly to himself.

"No wonder a treasure like bodhi transformation saliva ended up here... it was all brought by Zhu Kun."

This was also what Shen Wen had been puzzled about earlier.

The bodhi transformation saliva is nothing to a Dou Saint, but the bodhi heart and even the Bodhi Ancient Tree associated with it are massive Opportunities for a Dou Saint.

Therefore, the appearance of bodhi transformation saliva would definitely attract the attention of Dou Saints.

The key is that bodhi transformation saliva is a substance secreted by the bodhi heart. If the bodhi transformation saliva had been naturally born here,

it would be impossible for there to be only bodhi transformation saliva and no bodhi heart.

He looked at Xiong Tao:

"Take me inside."

Xiong Tao dared not refuse, quickly scrambled up, and clumsily turned towards the cave entrance.

"Your Excellency, please follow me."

Shen Wen turned back and nodded to Cai Lin and the others.

"Wait for me here; I'm going to take a look."

After speaking, he followed Xiong Tao, heading into the depths of the dark cave.

Shen Wen followed Xiong Tao into the depths of the cave.

The further they walked, the smoother the surrounding stone walls became, and a faint Aura subtly permeated the air.

Reaching the end, a layer of translucent Light Membrane appeared on the rock face ahead, slowly rippling like water waves.

The surface of the Light Membrane glowed with a faint golden luster, emanating an imposing aura that Shen Wen felt a sense of familiarity with.

"This is it." Xiong Tao pointed at the Light Membrane, lowering its voice. "This is the entrance to that small space... The Dragon Might on it is very strong."

Shen Wen carefully sensed it.

This Dragon Might was slightly different from his own—it was more ancient and profound, yet its purity was almost identical.

With a slight shift in his thoughts, the power of the space ancestral talisman quietly spread, touching the layer of Light Membrane.

A moment later, Shen Wen withdrew his perception.

"This space is already extremely unstable; it could completely collapse at any moment."

He looked at Xiong Tao.

"You come in with me."

Xiong Tao nodded quickly.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Shen Wen raised his hand and pressed it onto the Light Membrane, subtly circulating the Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art.

The Light Membrane rippled and swallowed both him and Xiong Tao.

The scene before his eyes suddenly changed.

Shen Wen found himself standing in a desolate wilderness. The sky was gray, and the outlines of mountains were faintly visible in the distance.

The ground was cracked, and almost no vegetation could be seen.

Xiong Tao scratched its head awkwardly.

"The outer area... I've already searched through everything before, there's nothing left."

Shen Wen didn't mind.

"Keep going."

He stepped forward, heading toward the depths of the space.

Not long after they started walking, the surrounding scenery began to change.

Sparse greenery gradually appeared on the barren land, and the Spiritual Qi also became richer.

Walking further, a low-lying valley appeared before their eyes.

In the valley, various Spiritual Lights shimmered. Strange-looking Medicinal Herbs grew quietly, emitting a rich medicinal fragrance.

Seven-Leaf Ice Heart Lotus, Dragon Blood Ganoderma, Heavenly Soul Spiritual Flower... all were rare main ingredients capable of refining seventh-grade pills!

Shen Wen's eyes lit up.

He flicked his fingers, and Jade Boxes flew out of his storage ring, accurately hovering next to each Medicinal Herb.

His movements were swift. He harvested these Medicinal Herbs completely and sealed them inside the Jade Boxes.

One, two, three plants... In just a moment, all the seventh-grade Medicinal Herbs in the valley had been collected.

Joy filled Shen Wen's heart; this was a massive haul.

Continuing forward, the path ahead was gradually enveloped by a layer of faint golden mist.

Xiong Tao stopped, its voice trembling.

"Your Excellency, starting from here... I can't go in. The Aura inside is too strong; my Bloodline can't withstand it."

Shen Wen felt it too.

An invisible pressure fell upon him, not testing strength, but testing the purity of the Bloodline.

His mind stirred.

"Roar—"

A low Dragon roar sounded from within his body, and the Azure Heaven Dragon Transformation Art operated at full power!

Purple-blue Dragon scales instantly covered his entire body, and the phantom image of a True Dragon Head majestically appeared behind him.

That pressure vanished instantly, like melting ice and snow.

Shen Wen stepped into the faint golden mist, which automatically parted to both sides, clearing a path for him.

The deeper he walked, the stranger the surrounding scenery became.

Crystalline Jade Stones began to appear on the ground, and the air was filled with an ancient and pure Dragon Clan Qi.

Finally, Shen Wen reached the deepest part of this space.

A fist-sized mass of strange, viscous substance, slightly leaning toward emerald green, slowly writhed and floated in the air.

Like a mollusk, layers of liquid churned as it writhed, looking like a living creature.

Shen Wen's Soul Power surged out, and the moment it touched the liquid, he felt as if his Soul was being nourished.

He felt waves of surging Vitality stirring.

"This must be the bodhi transformation saliva. Finally found it!"

Shen Wen reached out, and the mass of emerald green liquid automatically flew into the Jade Bottle he had prepared.

He lowered his head, watching the faint green light flowing inside the bottle, a smile spreading across his lips.
