161: Chapter 161 The Yin-Yang Ancient Tree Blooms, Yin-Yang Fruits Obtained Through Trading
Looking at the blood-red light coming from the summit, countless people felt a bone-chilling killing intent that led to despair.
Even as the black-haired woman walked back to the Yin Yang Lake, it only receded slightly and did not completely dissipate.
The sky, once occupied by black and white, now seemed to only have an apocalyptic blood-red remaining, as if Hell had come to the world.
Near the summit, a special position appeared, belonging only to a youth in the Spirit Seed Realm.
"Extreme Path Slaughter... its reputation is well-deserved." Chen Xing sat under the small tree, looking up with no emotional fluctuations on his face.
"Dong!"
At the same time, a massive roar suddenly dispersed the killing intent and red light.
It was the yinyang tree; it finally emerged from the center of the Yin Yang Lake, appearing even more massive than a star as it propped up the sky.
The massive black and white ancient tree emitted an ancient Dao charm, and all discordant forces were dispelled.
"Weng!"
Immediately after, the ancient yinyang tree emitted a Dao charm that covered the entire Yinyang Mountain, allowing everyone to benefit.
Chen Xing tested it and found that his comprehension speed had indeed increased significantly; if combined with the System's Enlightenment Space, the results would be even more unpredictable.
He had a feeling that meditating under the tree at a close distance would surely yield the best results.
Unfortunately, setting aside the person on the summit, the Yin and Yang Laws there were not something a mere Spirit Seed Realm cultivator like him could withstand.
"Refining the yin yang source qi and meditating under the tree for ten days should be enough for me to condense the tenth Perfect Seed!"
Chen Xing clenched his fists, his gaze deep.
Nine is the extreme number, and ten is Perfection!
He had a premonition that this time would produce the most suitable Perfect Seed for him, the key that would determine his future path!
"Hey! We meet again!" At this moment, a voice interrupted Chen Xing's thoughts.
Turning his head, he saw it was Zhong Yang; this guy loved to join in the excitement wherever he went.
"Why aren't you going up?" Chen Xing asked.
"Hehe... you took the lead on something. You, the [Pioneer], cut down the tree, so a latecomer like me has no shade to enjoy." Zhong Yang scratched his head and laughed.
"Is that my fault? Who told you to enjoy playing around instead of doing proper work?" Chen Xing laughed.
Zhong Yang chuckled and said, "So, I want to make a trade with you. What do you think?"
Chen Xing stood up and said, "Let's hear it?"
Zhong Yang took out a wisp of yin yang source qi and said, "Don't you have six wisps? Give me two. After I go up, how about I pick a yin yang fruit for you?"
"Oh?" Chen Xing's heart stirred.
The yin yang fruit was rumored to be the essence of the entire tree, nurtured by the Yin Yang Lake water and countless wisps of Yin and Yang Qi.
If ordinary Yin and Yang Qi were low-grade and yin yang source qi was mid-grade, then the yin yang fruit was top-grade.
Chen Xing had done his homework before coming; if he had a yin yang fruit, he could use the yin yang source qi as a catalyst to amplify its effects.
There would be a resonance effect between the two.
"So, is this a good deal?" Zhong Yang once again revealed his neat, large white teeth, his entire being filled with youthful vitality.
"Are you sure? The value of two wisps of yin yang source qi probably can't compare to a whole yin yang fruit." Chen Xing hesitated.
"I have no choice because you've cut down all the trees, leaving no shade for those who follow." Zhong Yang waved his hand helplessly.
"...Fine, my fault." Chen Xing laughed.
"Heehee, actually I want to make a friend. This time will be my show of sincerity; if you have any trouble in the future, you can come find me!" Zhong Yang patted his chest.
"Alright." Chen Xing nodded and handed over the two wisps of yin yang source qi.
"Thanks, just wait!" Zhong Yang turned and walked onto the steps, preparing to head to the summit.
As he neared the summit, he suddenly looked back and said, "By the way, you should know how to Cultivate with the yin yang source qi, right?"
Chen Xing nodded: "One wisp each for the Physical Body, Law, and Soul, and the last wisp acts on the seed to condense an even more powerful Perfect Seed."
Zhong Yang grinned: "That's it then!"
With that, he stepped onto the summit.
Below, Jin Shengluo, Li Yueran, and the others on the platforms finally noticed him and couldn't help but widen their eyes.
The Prodigies from other Universes were even more shocked, thinking they were hallucinating, and nearly jumped up.
"Why is he here too?" Jin Shengluo turned his gaze and met Li Yueran's eyes on the adjacent platform.
"This is getting interesting. I wonder if the Lord will return; then the lineup would be complete." Li Yueran smiled.
"This kid made a trade with him. If he gets a yin yang fruit... I really wonder what kind of seed he will condense?" Jin Shengluo looked at Chen Xing in the distance, Lost in thought.
The summit.
The ancient yinyang tree bestowed its blessings upon all living beings, and ten black-and-white yin yang fruit hung from its branches, making everyone's mouth water.
However, with the black-haired woman standing there, no one dared to risk going up, and they could only watch helplessly as she picked the fruit.
"Weng!"
The black-haired woman underwent Fusion with the yin yang source qi and ate the first yin yang fruit. She then sat in the center of the lake, leaning against the yinyang tree, and began to comprehend the Dao Laws.
Around her, blood-red light soared to the heavens, and killing intent was like blades, as if countless edges were suspended in the air, emitting waves of chill.
Zhong Yang skipped toward the ancient yinyang tree, stood right beside her, and reached out to take the fruit next to her.
The black-haired woman opened her eyes, her cold gaze carrying a hint of disdain, seemingly indifferent to the fruits being taken.
She said, "If you want yin yang source qi, just rob others. Why go and trade with a weakling? You're still as useless as ever!"
Zhong Yang held five yin yang fruit and smiled, "That won't do. Do you think I'm like you? One should be gentler and keep their word."
The black-haired woman closed her eyes and continued her meditation: "I have always kept my word; it's just that they couldn't do it."
"Haha, I suppose so." Zhong Yang laughed and scratched the back of his head, then turned to walk down the mountain.
"Brother, your fruit is here!"
"Thanks!"
"..."
The moment he received the yin yang fruit, Chen Xing felt a surging power that completely transcended the mortal realm.
Strictly speaking, the yin yang fruit was already a divine item.
"Teacher, help me." Chen Xing whispered, pulling out a Black Ancient Zither that looked as small as a figurine.
Before setting out, his teacher had given him instructions.
"Neither the yin yang source qi nor the yin yang fruit are things you can refine yet. You must not be greedy!" Han Lingxi had urged.
"In that case, I can store them and just absorb ordinary Yin and Yang Qi," Chen Xing had said.
"I didn't tell you to give up; they have other uses." Han Lingxi gave a mysterious smile and took out the figurine-sized Black Ancient Zither.
"It contains my Seal technique. After you obtain the yin yang source qi, use my power to cut it into four parts to act on your Physical Body, Law, and Soul respectively."
"As long as the Seal remains, it will unlock as your strength grows. That terrifying yin yang source qi won't be able to harm you; instead, it will aid your growth."
"It has such a function?" Chen Xing's eyes lit up, and he immediately took it.
