Chapter 151: The Most Suitable Cultivation Technique for the nine-bend spirit ginseng!

This was a garden. It was called a garden because it contained many exotic flowers and rare herbs that even Zhao Changsheng could not name, along with several pavilions. Each pavilion was similar to those outside, carved from jade. There was no one inside, only Zhao Changsheng, as he had driven everyone else out.

The reason Zhao Changsheng stayed here was not out of idleness, but primarily because he needed to wait for the Teleportation Array. If the time wasn't right, even he couldn't proceed to the next stage. Moreover, before moving on, he still had to find the nine-bend spirit ginseng.

A sentient Spirit Medicine like this, rare even in the Spirit Realm, could be said to be an immense Opportunity to obtain.

The nine-bend spirit ginseng wasn't particularly rare in the Spirit Realm, but sentient ones like this were few and far between.

Later, only one more appeared, but that was a Zhi Immortal.

But in reality, they weren't that different. A hundred zhang outside the garden, everything was enveloped in pitch-black mist, sealing the entire area tightly.

Yet none of this affected Zhao Changsheng in the slightest. His goal was solely his nine-bend spirit ginseng; he needed to obtain it here. As for other matters, he had no desire to interfere or inquire.

Mainly because it had nothing to do with him.

And so, Zhao Changsheng stayed in this garden-like place for a full day before what he wanted finally appeared: a ball of white light, intensely dazzling.

An ordinary Cultivator would have their eyes turn bloodshot from looking at it in no time.

But for Zhao Changsheng, it had no effect.

The white light also dissipated extremely quickly, vanishing almost in the blink of an eye.

In its place was the Teleportation Array Zhao Changsheng had long awaited.

This Teleportation Array was no different from the previous ones. When it appeared, a fitting smile spread across Zhao Changsheng's face.

Naturally, he stood up, walked to the front of the Teleportation Array, and stepped into it. Accompanied by a surge of white light, his entire person vanished from within the array.

When he reappeared, he found himself in a place like a paradise: a sapphire-blue sky, leisurely white clouds, an endless grassland, and most importantly, the majestic mountain ranges in the distance, along with the fragrance of flowers and plants wafting through the air.

Within this floral scent was also a special, refreshing aroma that, upon inhalation, refreshed the heart and mind, instantly dispelling all fatigue.

"This shouldn't be something a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator could achieve, right? What exactly is going on? For Ice Soul Fairy, who was merely at the Great Perfection of the Soul Transformation Stage, to construct such a place is truly unbelievable. Could it be that Ice Soul Fairy obtained the Legacy of the Heavenly Cauldron Venerable while still in the Mortal Realm?"

"But how is that possible? The Mortal Realm is the domain of the Human Race and the Yao Race; it has nothing to do with those other races. And that Heavenly Cauldron Venerable certainly wasn't a Cultivator of my Human Race. It's truly strange, utterly astonishing. I'll ask Ice Soul Fairy about it later. For now, I must first figure out how to take everything here in one fell swoop. It would be best to obtain the entire Void Heaven Palace."

After surveying his surroundings, a thought emerged in Zhao Changsheng's mind: to claim the entire Void Heaven Palace as his own.

For others, this might be an impossible task, but for Zhao Changsheng, it was an easy one.

Yet he remained curious: how exactly did Ice Soul Fairy manage it back then?

Although ancient records state that during the primordial era, every ancient Cultivator who reached the peak possessed the ability to split heaven and earth, in reality, this was more of an exaggeration.

Not to mention ancient Cultivators at the Soul Transformation Stage; even Mahayana Stage Cultivators didn't have such capability.

One could only say the spatial barriers of the Mortal Realm were relatively weak. But no matter how weak, they couldn't possibly allow a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator to carve out such a separate world. That's simply impossible; even with Zhao Changsheng's current strength, he couldn't do it.

Let alone Cultivators from the primordial era.

Although Zhao Changsheng hadn't yet reached the Great Perfection of the Soul Transformation Stage, he still surpassed ordinary Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators.

"Strange, truly strange."

Zhao Changsheng rubbed his head and began flying swiftly towards a destination.

Before long, the grassland beneath his feet was replaced by undulating mountain ranges, appearing incredibly vast and magnificent.

But for Zhao Changsheng, they still held no allure.

Because Zhao Changsheng's target was the nine-bend spirit ginseng. For him, this was the most important matter, arguably even surpassing the importance of the void heaven cauldron.

In the Mortal Realm, the nine-bend spirit ginseng was merely a Spirit Medicine for refining the nine-bend spirit pill, but in Zhao Changsheng's hands, it was an exceptionally precious treasure, incomparable to other treasures.

After flying for a while longer, Zhao Changsheng arrived in front of a small rocky hill. This peak not only lacked any vegetation but also had Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi so thin it was appalling. Compared to the towering, majestic peaks in the distance, it was a world apart.

Yet it was precisely such a place that housed the nine-bend spirit ginseng.

If not for triple-checking, Zhao Changsheng would never have believed it. But the facts were as such, and at this moment, a crimson hue appeared in Zhao Changsheng's eyes.

Because on that rocky hill, he detected faint traces of azure-colored light. Though extremely faint, they still existed.

The reason he didn't use his Divine Thought power was mainly to test whether the secret technique he had just obtained was useful. Otherwise, a simple sweep with his Divine Thought would have revealed it.

Then, a golden spherical object, like an egg but woven from countless fine golden threads, appeared in Zhao Changsheng's hand.

This was the best Sharp Weapon for capturing the nine-bend spirit ginseng, freshly crafted by Zhao Changsheng.

Apart from that, there was the corresponding Formation.

This was Zhao Changsheng's foolproof plan. Beyond this, there were no other methods.

At least, that was the case for Zhao Changsheng. However, he did have another method, but he wasn't planning to use it now.

Before long, Zhao Changsheng spotted a small rabbit within his field of vision. This little rabbit was pure white all over, but its eyes were blood-red. It kept looking around, appearing extremely timid and cautious. However, this little rabbit seemed to have also noticed Zhao Changsheng.

Upon seeing Zhao Changsheng, it fled at its fastest speed into the distance. But for Zhao Changsheng, this was useless. With a mere point of his palm, the golden sphere in his hand instantly transformed into a large net, ensnaring the little rabbit, which he then caught in his hand.

"Little one, don't bother running. With your meager skills, trying to escape from my grasp is simply seeking death, an utterly impossible feat. So, just follow me obediently. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer a loss. I'll now impart a set of Cultivation Techniques to you. Once you successfully Cultivate it, transforming into human form in the future will be no problem at all. But the prerequisite is that you must be obedient. If you're not... you should be well aware of the consequences."

Zhao Changsheng's words carried no hostility; on the contrary, they were extremely gentle and pleasant to hear.

So, after the little rabbit listened, it immediately quieted down, ceasing its struggles and appearing very obedient.

Subsequently, a massive stream of information flooded into the little rabbit's mind. Although its intelligence wasn't very high at the moment, it could still accept this vast information stream, and the speed of acceptance was somewhat unexpectedly fast.

Soon, the little rabbit's body began to glow with a jade-green light, then transformed into something resembling a silkworm cocoon, only hundreds, even thousands, of times larger than an ordinary cocoon—about the size of a basketball.

Seeing this jade-green, glowing cocoon, an expression of 'just as I expected' appeared on Zhao Changsheng's face.

"Just as I thought. In the entire Cultivation World, no being is more suited to this set of Cultivation Techniques than this little rabbit. What a lucky little creature. If it Cultivates successfully, its future assistance to me will undoubtedly be significant."

"Since you're so fortunate, just stay obediently by my side. Rest assured, I will treat you well, just as I am now."

After saying this, Zhao Changsheng directly took out a large jade box, placed the cocoon inside, sealed it properly to prevent any accidents.

After completing all this, Zhao Changsheng did not immediately head to the Path of Ice and Fire.

Instead, he went to other places to search for other Spirit Medicines. For him, this place was an unimaginably good location. Since he was here, naturally he couldn't miss out. After all, they were all good things, absolutely not to be overlooked.

Timewise, there were no issues. As long as everything went smoothly, he was confident he could take everything away.

And so, as time passed, Zhao Changsheng also arrived at the place he absolutely had to reach: the Path of Ice and Fire.

This location was situated on a tall mountain composed entirely of bluish-black giant stones. The stones divided the entire mountain into two halves, extending all the way to the foot, forming an indescribably large canyon.

Even more bizarre, terrifying, and astonishing was that in the middle section of the mountain, there were red and blue lights respectively enveloping each half of the peak. Viewed from afar, it was truly a sight to behold.

Simultaneously, there was no one at the mountain's entrance, because everyone was gone.

Zhao Changsheng also didn't enter immediately, as it wasn't time yet. The designated time hadn't arrived, so naturally, entry was impossible.

Even Zhao Changsheng couldn't manage this. It couldn't be helped; his current strength hadn't yet reached the level of piercing heaven and earth. Once it did, he would naturally be able to.

However, he didn't have to wait here long. Suddenly, from the direction of the mountain, red and blue lights appeared, and amidst earth-shaking tremors, two narrow passages materialized.

At the very front of these two passages were two stone tablets. One was inscribed with 'Path of Mysterious Crystal,' and the other with 'Lava Road.'

As for Zhao Changsheng's choice, he naturally chose the Lava Road he desired.

After all, it was warmer there.

However, once chosen, one would be randomly teleported to any location. Wanting to be with others was completely impossible.

Mainly, there were no others here anyway. If there were, Zhao Changsheng would have eliminated them long ago.

Thus, Zhao Changsheng directly chose to step into his selected Lava Road.

The moment he stepped in, a scorching hot wind swept over, making one frown involuntarily. Even though Zhao Changsheng's strength had reached an indescribable level, he still couldn't help but frown, which was enough to prove just how high the temperature was. However, for Zhao Changsheng, it still meant nothing; it wouldn't affect him anyway.

His current cultivation Realm meant he didn't need to worry about anything. Yet, even so, he conjured an ice-blue protective shield around himself, both for protection and to keep himself much cooler. This sensation of alternating ice and fire made Zhao Changsheng feel exceptionally comfortable.

It felt like drinking an ice-cold cola on a sweltering day—an utterly fantastic sensation.

Immediately after, Zhao Changsheng saw crimson mountains, yellow-red earth, vegetation emitting red light, and a deep red yet hazy sky. Everything was indistinguishable from fire.

One could imagine how uncomfortable it would be for an ordinary Cultivator to enter here. But for Zhao Changsheng, it was of no consequence. However, when Zhao Changsheng discovered he couldn't fly, he felt somewhat annoyed.

Although he already knew he couldn't fly, experiencing it firsthand was still hard to bear.

After all, this feeling was truly unpleasant. Fortunately, Zhao Changsheng's stamina was sufficient, so he didn't need to worry too much about it.

Thus, Zhao Changsheng began walking forward step by step, without any pauses, nor did he wish to pause.

Apart from the scorching heat, the most important things were the naturally occurring monsters and demons, as well as those Cultivators who killed to seize treasures.

Their goal was to snatch treasures to increase their own chances of survival.

Unfortunately for them, Zhao Changsheng had already dealt with all these Cultivators, so he didn't need to worry about anyone disturbing his private affairs.

He only needed to proceed step by step forward. As for what might happen along the way, he paid no mind. Those monsters and demons were like ants to Zhao Changsheng; he could crush them with a casual slap, requiring no excessive worry or concern.

The only thing to worry about was whether the journey would be a bit long and lonely. It was indeed somewhat boring. Knowing this earlier, he should have let a few more people in. That way, he would have had company along the way, someone to talk and chat with, avoiding excessive boredom. It wasn't a difficult thing for Zhao Changsheng to arrange, but unfortunately, now there wasn't a single person left.

"What a troublesome matter."

Zhao Changsheng couldn't help but sigh.
