The Bull God flew out of the sea, his eyes filled with curiosity. He seemed to recall something and exclaimed, "The... the... the Soul Reverting Tree?"
Chen Nan said excitedly, "Yes, this big tree is called the Soul Revert Tree."
The Nine-Headed Fiery Lion couldn't help but ask, "Brother Niu, what is a Soul Revert Tree?"
The Bull God rolled his eyes at it and said irritably, "Aren't you accusing me of defiling trees now?"
The Nine-Headed Fiery Lion looked embarrassed. "It was just a joke, why take it seriously?"
The Bull God snorted, expelling a blast of air. He said crossly, "The Soul Revert Tree is an extremely rare existence. As the young master said, this tree can overturn people's perceptions."
"Can it really bring the dead back to life?" The Nine-Headed Fiery Lion pouted. Life and death had always been the most irreversible existences in the Three Realms. No one had ever been able to reverse it since ancient times.
Chen Nan replied, "The Soul Revert Tree can indeed bring the dead back to life. No, no, to be precise, it can make buried bones come alive."
"Holy cow, is that true?" The Nine-Headed Fiery Lion's scalp tingled. What Chen Nan said truly overturned its understanding of the world. Read books
Chen Nan said, "Of course, it's true. However, this Soul Revert Tree is not yet strong enough to revive buried bones. It needs a little processing."
As he spoke.
A terrifying energy wave came from the distance.
Immediately after, a jade stone the size of a basketball flew through the air.
With a thought from Chen Nan, the massive jade stone began to crackle and groan, eventually transforming into a giant cauldron. Cauldrons were ancient vessels.
Seeing the giant cauldron form, Chen Nan snapped his fingers. The island below erupted with cracking sounds, and the roots of the Soul Revert Tree flew towards the cauldron.
Seeing the stunned look on the Nine-Headed Fiery Lion's face, Chen Nan explained, "The Soul Revert Tree is a rare existence. Boiling the roots of the Soul Revert Tree in a jade cauldron, collecting the sap, and simmering it over a low fire yields a black medicinal paste."
"This medicinal paste is the main ingredient for refining the Spirit-Shaking Pill, also known as the Rebirth Incense, Bird Spirit Incense, and Death-Defying Incense. Once the Spirit-Shaking Pill can be refined, its fragrance can spread for a hundred miles, reviving even the corpses below if they smell it."
The Nine-Headed Fiery Lion's heart was in turmoil.
The Bull God couldn't help but sigh, "I never imagined that such a rare existence would appear in the young master's world. If it can be refined into Spirit-Shaking Pills, tsk tsk!"
As he spoke, his eyes were filled with excitement and even anticipation. "Then, we can traverse the ancient starry road and find many powerful helpers."
Chen Nan's small world contained many rare medicinal ingredients. He then found several auxiliary ingredients for refining the Spirit-Shaking Pill and, in three days, refined more than fifty Spirit-Shaking Pills.
The dark brown pills emanated a crystalline glow, and their refreshing fragrance brought an indescribable sense of comfort.
"We can set off now!" Chen Nan left his small world.
Two days later.
The map appeared in a secluded valley, transforming into a distorted spacetime portal.
The moment the spacetime portal opened.
An ancient, desolate, and barren aura swept over them.
Chen Nan instantly felt as if he had traveled through the river of time, arriving in the primordial era. Read books
He didn't hesitate at all.
He stepped forward and entered.
The next second.
The scene before his eyes changed. He appeared in a vast expanse of starry sky, boundless and limitless, with countless stars shining brilliantly, as if within reach.
However.
Chen Nan felt terrifying auras emanating from the myriad stars.
It was as if ancient gods and demons were buried within them.
Even he felt a tremor of fear.
Looking at the ancient starry road below his feet, which connected to the depths of the Nine Heavens.
He stood tall and strode forward with great confidence.
Even if the path ahead was fraught with danger and peril, he would resolutely move forward.
Because.
This was the only way to ascend to the Nine Heavens.
Only by reaching the Nine Heavens could he retrieve the Three Lives Stone...
Thinking of this, Chen Nan suddenly let out a wry smile. "Now, it seems there's no need to retrieve the Three Lives Stone!"
"Since that fellow Qinglong has already become a Saint."
"A Saint is omnipotent. What difficulty would it be to open the memories of the past lives of those reincarnated celestial beings and help them recover their strength?"
"Once I cross the ancient starry road, it will be the ultimate battle between the Three Realms and the alien demons."
Chen Nan knew that danger lay ahead, but his gaze was firm.
At the same time.
A Spirit-Shaking Pill appeared in his hand, its fragrance spreading five hundred miles along the ancient starry road.
And as he passed a star.
That star immediately erupted with divine light, as bright as day, illuminating the small world. Then, an ancient ferocious beast awakened and lunged out with bared teeth.
It was enormous, about ten thousand feet tall, and its every move seemed capable of shattering stars.
However, its eyes were vacant.
It quietly followed behind Chen Nan, like a walking corpse.
"The Spirit-Shaking Pill truly overturns people's understanding of this world!" Chen Nan sighed. Suddenly, a terrifying Dao law shot out from a distant, bright star.
It was a fire-elemental formation, which not only illuminated the ancient starry road but also made the cold path become hot.
Chen Nan's expression was calm.
This was a fragmented Dao law, capable of instantly killing a half-saint.
But he possessed the Seven Elements of Law.
Having established his own Three Realms.
He was utterly fearless of this Dao law.
The Yin-Yang Diagram quietly appeared behind him, rotating slowly, and instantly absorbed the Dao law.
After Chen Nan absorbed the Dao law.
A one-armed old man in a blue robe flew out from a star ahead, his eyes vacant. Although he had died many years ago, he exuded the aura of a Saint.
This was an ancient Saint, who made Chen Nan feel immense pressure.
Especially the vacant eyes, which made Chen Nan's soul tremble.
Chen Nan endured the pressure that threatened to tear his body apart and bowed respectfully to the ancient Saint. "This junior, Chen Nan, has been entrusted with the heavy responsibility of saving the Three Realms. However, my cultivation is weak, and I was forced to refine the Spirit-Shaking Pill."
"Only to repel the alien demons and restore peace to my Human, Divine, and Underworld realms. I beg for your forgiveness for any offense!"
The ancient Saint in blue let out a faint sigh. "I never imagined that the alien demons would eventually invade the Three Realms."
Chen Nan's eyes were firm. "But our race has not conceded defeat!"
The ancient Saint in blue asked, "Do you know how difficult this path is? Do you know that embarking on this path means certain death?"
Chen Nan looked at the ancient starry road that stretched endlessly before him, his eyes blazing with dazzling light. "Even if it means certain death, this junior will not take a single step back!"
"Because..."
"This is my Dao."
The ancient Saint in blue asked, "Which Dao?"
Chen Nan's voice boomed like thunder, echoing through the void. "To establish the heart for heaven and earth, to provide sustenance for the people, to continue the lost learning of the past sages, and to bring everlasting peace to all generations."
"This is the Dao of all beings!"
