Chapter 2180 Raw 2287 : Refining the Thunder Cliff Tree

After crossing the herb field, there was a vast fog sea.

According to rumor, this fog sea had been the True God Paradise’s land of fortuitous encounters. Supposedly, someone once found a Divine Crystal there.

Someone had also found broken Divine Tools and treasures in the fog sea before. Some even obtained incomplete True God Flames.

As for Xiao Chen, he did not plan on searching for any fortuitous encounters in this fog sea.

Fortuitous encounters in the fog sea were much rarer than in the herb field, harder to find. Furthermore, these would mostly be some broken weapons, which were practically useless to Sovereign Personages.

In this age, one could no longer become a True God. Even if one had a Divine Tool, one could not use it.

Most of the Faux Gods used Soul Tools. The so-called Divine Tools were not even as valuable as a Medial Grade Soul Tool.

The Divine Tool fragments’ merit lay mostly in research.

Of course, the fragments of True God Flames were valuable. However, the chances of finding a True God Flame fragment were even lower than finding a Divine Herb in the herb field.

As one traveled the fog sea, one’s perception and Soul Energy would suffer from significant restrictions. Everything one saw would be blurry; visibility was only one kilometer.

An ancient aura of devastation permeated the ground. Incomplete Dao lingered, inspiring deep thoughts.

This place should be one of the battlefields between the righteous and demonic factions, back when the Heavenly Realm shattered.

Xiao Chen felt relatively satisfied with this ancient battlefield. It was an ideal covert for consuming and refining that Thunder Cliff Tree.

“Here, then.”

Xiao Chen casually chose a deserted mountain. After ensuring that it was sufficiently remote, he took out the Thunder Cliff Tree, the one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King.

---

“Whoosh!”

The scene of Xiao Chen in the fog sea in the light screen outside the Trial Tower turned blurry. However, the general situation could still be made out.

“The Thunder Cliff Tree!”

“That is a one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King. It has been many years since a one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King appeared in that herb field.”

“If it were another one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King, it would not be that valuable. However, the Thunder Cliff Tree is genuinely incredible. Even non-lightning-attributed Faux Gods can use it to avoid lightning tribulations. It is truly wondrous!”

“Indeed, if one could directly comprehend the principle behind its conversion of lightning tribulations into its own energy, one could become very strong.”

When the various super faction Faux God powerhouses saw Xiao Chen take out the Thunder Cliff Tree in the fog sea, they all became excited.

Mu Zifeng thought about it for a while. If this is really Xiao Chen, I have to remind him after he comes out.

If he does not manage this one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King well, it will bring endless disaster to him.

Just at this moment, a Faux God suddenly exclaimed, “What is he doing?!”

“He is going to refine that Thunder Cliff Tree. Is this fellow crazy? Refining that Thunder Cliff Tree with his insignificant cultivation is a waste of a heavenly item!”

Seeing that Xiao Chen wanted to monopolize and refine the one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King, the various super faction Faux God powerhouses showed somewhat unsightly expressions.

Everyone hoped that Xiao Chen would bring the Thunder Cliff Tree out.

After all, a Sovereign Personage could not thoroughly refine the Thunder Cliff Tree. Forcefully refining it would result in extremely great wastage.

The best method was to bring it out and trade it with a Faux God expert for a suitable treasure.

No one expected that Xiao Chen would choose to give up on this fog sea’s fortuitous encounters.

Keeping a low profile, Xiao Chen went to refine the Thunder Cliff Tree.

Many of these people could not have imagined that this would happen. However, they could only watch as it did.

“Who exactly is this fellow? I wonder if he knows that refining the Thunder Cliff Tree like this is very wasteful?” someone muttered. Although they guessed that the strange person was Xiao Chen, no one felt sure with his bandaged, bedsheet-draped appearance.

These people wanted to curse someone, but they needed to know whom to curse.

---

In the fog sea, Xiao Chen did not dwell on the matter. He focused on absorbing the Thunder Cliff Tree.

He knew that it would have been fine if it were a ten-thousand-year-old Herb King. Faux God experts would not pay too much mind to that.

However, once he left Paradise with a one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King, it would no longer be his.

If a Faux God took an interest in it, Xiao Chen would not have the strength to object.

The Thunder Cliff Tree was beneficial to Xiao Chen. Even if forcefully refining it resulted in some wastage, he absolutely would not exchange it for other treasures. Such a trade would not be worth it.

After the cultivators who fled the herb field settled down, they started searching the fog sea.

Compared to the abundance of fortuitous encounters in the herb field, the fortuitous encounters in the fog sea were much rarer.

However, the fog sea was still a land of fortuitous encounters. If one were lucky, one would receive something.

The cultivators with no harvest in the herb field were incredibly excited about this.

After crossing the fog sea, they would arrive at the final trial land of Paradise.

There were not many opportunities left for them.

The fog sea slowly turned bustling. However, this excitement had nothing to do with Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen focused on refining the Thunder Cliff Tree, absorbing the Great Dao Energy of the Thunder Great Dao in it. He could clearly feel a rapid improvement in his Thunder Dao Domain’s strength.

His Veritable Essence Energy continuously condensed, and his cultivation firmed.

Only one day passed, yet Xiao Chen felt like his cultivation had become as dense as that of a cultivator who had been a half-step Sovereign Emperor for one hundred years.

Xiao Chen continuously absorbed and refined the Medicinal Energy of the one-hundred-thousand-year-old Thunder Cliff Tree.

The Thunder Dao’s Great Dao Energy contained in the Thunder Cliff Tree was simply too vast. Xiao Chen could not absorb even one percent of it.

The Medicinal Energy leaked out, filling the surroundings. This Medicinal Energy turned into electricity and spread out. When seen from afar, it looked like a sea of lightning.

The electricity either seeped into the ground, floated in the air, or merged with the fog sea.

It was indeed wasteful. However, although Xiao Chen could not take in even one percent of the Medicinal Energy, he still benefited in many ways.

Seven days later, a roar shook the area. His Thunder Might soared explosively.

This Thunder Might appeared as sharp as a sword. As it soared, it split the fog sea.

Xiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and sparks glittered in them. The saber-like electric light in his eyes disappeared in a flash.

“Boom!”

A loud buzz rang out in Xiao Chen’s body. His Thunder Dao Domain broke through two layers in one go, directly reaching the Thunder Dao Domain’s third layer.

In merely seven days, Xiao Chen’s Thunder Dao Domain went from the first layer to the peak of the third layer.

Back when Mu Yunzhu tried to break through the bottleneck of his Light Dao Domain, he had to sit at the Comprehension Platform for one month to break through the bottleneck of just one layer.

Now, Xiao Chen broke through two entire layers in one go, reaching peak third layer in his Thunder Dao Domain.

This simply felt inconceivable. However, since Xiao Chen had absorbed a one-hundred-thousand-year-old Thunder Cliff Tree, this seemed logical.

Furthermore, this was only one percent of the Thunder Cliff Tree’s Medicinal Energy.

“Fortunately, I absorbed it. If I brought it out and it got snatched away by a Faux God, I would have made a huge loss no matter what treasure they traded.”

A bright light flickered in Xiao Chen’s eyes, showing a strong sharpness that no one would dare to look at directly.

As far as Xiao Chen knew, no Sovereign Personage’s Dao Domain in the Faux God World had managed to break past the second layer.

Even an outstanding talent like Mu Yunzhu only managed to reach the peak of the second layer of his Light Dao Domain.

Short of a miracle, Mu Yunzhu could not possibly break through to the third layer without another ten years.

Given this, Xiao Chen finally had a trump card against the false Emperors: the third-layer Thunder Dao Domain.

However, that was not the only benefit Xiao Chen received from the Thunder Cliff Tree.

After he refined the Thunder Cliff Tree, his Divine Lightning Eye reached peak consummation.

Xiao Chen had a feeling that he could directly use that Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning that he obtained in the Kunlun Realm.

However, many Faux Gods were watching him outside now, so it was not convenient to test it here.

The Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning made Xiao Chen feel more excitement and anticipation than the improvements of his Thunder Dao Domain.

“Whoosh!”

Drained of Medicinal Energy, the Thunder Cliff Tree in Xiao Chen’s hand immediately turned into dust and scattered on the wind. Only the many purple leaves, which were as hard as divine metal, remained.

All the purple leaves contained tribulation lightning marks that twisted around, looking like naturally formed divine characters. This seemed very mysterious.

The purple leaves totaled precisely three hundred sixty. They felt extraordinary.

After examining the leaves, Xiao Chen carefully put them away. He felt excited in his heart, and his entire body felt very comfortable.

He could not hide the excitement in his eyes. The opportunities the Thunder Cliff Tree brought him were simply too startling.

“If that Gu Yuhan runs into me again, I no longer have to use schemes against him.”

Previously, Xiao Chen only managed to gain an advantage over Gu Yuhan and leave by feigning strength.

Although Xiao Chen acknowledged the other party’s strength, he did not feel that he was inferior to the other party by much.

Earlier, after Xiao Chen had recovered from his injuries, he had considered seeking out the other party to fight him again.

“Seven days have passed. I wonder if I can still explore the final trial land of Paradise?”

Xiao Chen calmed his emotions, and a brilliant light flashed in his eyes as he set off to traverse the fog sea.
