Chapter 1225 The Condition
After leaving, Chen Yang immediately entered the bronze cauldron.
Chen Yang arrived before the Jianmu and, looking at the Jianmu being nourished by the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow, immediately began his actions.
Chen Yang had this idea in mind before when he transformed into a tree.
After all, Jianmu was also wood!
If his power could accelerate the growth of Jianmu...
Thinking this, Chen Yang used his mental power to touch the Jianmu.
The next second, Chen Yang felt as if he had taken control of Jianmu's body.
Feeling the Jianmu riddled with holes, Chen Yang couldn't help but be a little surprised!
From the outside, the Jianmu showed no signs of injury, at most, the severed part had some issues.
But only after truly entering the Jianmu did Chen Yang discover that the injuries were more severe than he had imagined.
Fortunately, the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow had been continuously nourishing the Jianmu.
After controlling the Jianmu, Chen Yang began to intentionally or unintentionally guide the Jianmu to immerse itself in the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow.
Chen Yang was no longer a novice at doing such things.
It was something he could do instinctively, like breathing.
This was the only thing he had done in… tens of thousands of years.
"No one understands tree growth better than I do!"
Now, Chen Yang could say this sentence with absolute certainty.
Under Chen Yang's efforts, the Jianmu actually moved towards the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow.
The moment they touched, the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow instantly healed all of Jianmu's injuries.
Of course, the volume of the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow had decreased significantly compared to before.
All of this was naturally due to Chen Yang's efforts.
Looking at the Jianmu vigorously absorbing the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow, Chen Yang was very satisfied.
After withdrawing from the Jianmu, Chen Yang began to use the spiritual energy within his body to interact with the Jianmu.
After absorbing the bronze cauldron last time, Chen Yang had gained another type of spiritual energy. This spiritual energy could complement the flame spiritual energy.
It was wood-elemental spiritual energy.
As the Jianmu began to absorb Chen Yang's wood-elemental spiritual energy, Chen Yang was extremely pleased.
This indicated that his guess was correct.
The bronze cauldron was much more powerful than he had imagined!
"Since the wood element can be used to nourish Jianmu, then the flame internal energy should also be usable for alchemy!"
With this thought, Chen Yang did not act immediately.
He had another idea for nourishing Jianmu today.
That was to see if Jianmu could actually grow!
Chen Yang slowly replenished his spiritual energy while nourishing Jianmu along with the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow.
And the Jianmu began to visibly…
Grow branches!
Chen Yang was startled by what he saw before him.
Wu Min had said that Jianmu could grow, but it would never grow branches.
It was just a tree!
And it was exceptionally straight!
But now, all of this was appearing before his eyes.
Even if Chen Yang didn't want to believe it, there was nothing he could do.
Just as Chen Yang was wondering if this thing was really Jianmu, the branches actually fell off.
However, in this short period of time, the branches had already grown longer than a person's arm.
What was important was that these things were also exceptionally straight.
If not for the texture of wood, Chen Yang would never have thought these were made of wood.
Chen Yang picked up the broken Jianmu and was surprised to find that it was quite heavy!
"Use it to burn a pill furnace?"
Chen Yang tried burning it with his flame internal energy and found that he couldn't burn it at all.
After some testing, Chen Yang came up with an idea.
To use this thing to forge a sword for himself!
"Shi Xin Chou is here, so I'll have him help me with it!"
Previously, the physical manifestations of the Three Emperors Buddha had always handled weapon forging, but Shi Xin Chou also had some skill in this area. It should be fine to have him handle it.
With that thought, Chen Yang immediately took the item to find Shi Xin Chou.
At this moment, Shi Xin Chou had not left the Land of Hope.
Although he had not explored the entire Nether Realm in the days he had been away, Shi Xin Chou's cultivation had been restored. He was currently in need of resources to advance further.
The conditions Chen Yang offered were not low at all!
A large number of spirit stones, and the ability to refine pills for him.
Only a fool would leave!
However, the daily tasks were also overwhelming.
Especially the students he had to teach during this period.
Shi Xin Chou considered himself not a qualified teacher, and he had not even cultivated his own techniques to their peak.
Fortunately, there were many research-oriented martial artists in the Land of Hope.
Although the strength of these martial artists was not high, their teaching level was surprisingly good.
Even Shi Xin Chou himself would sometimes get engrossed listening to them.
Even if some teachers, due to their realm, had some biased misunderstandings about spiritual energy.
Overall, Shi Xin Chou was very satisfied with these people.
Shi Xin Chou also incorporated these contents into his own system.
Shi Xin Chou, who was preparing the materials for his next class, saw Chen Yang arrive and couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Hmm? Chen Shu has already given me the spirit stones."
Shi Xin Chou thought Chen Yang had come to pay him.
Chen Yang knew about this; it was Chen Shu's responsibility.
With that task handed over to her, Chen Yang naturally had no worries about any problems.
Chen Yang said with a smile, "It's not about the special class. I have a personal matter that I'd like your help with."
"I don't have a suitable weapon, do I?"
"So I was thinking, I'd ask you to forge one for me."
After staring at Chen Yang for a few seconds, Shi Xin Chou slowly said, "It's possible, but the fee will be calculated separately."
Perhaps worried that Chen Yang would disagree, Shi Xin Chou explained, "The matter of teaching materials has kept me so busy that I hardly have time for my own cultivation."
"Forging a weapon that you can use is not simple either."
"So, if I charge a fee… it should be alright, right?"
Chen Yang said with a wry smile, "That's easy to say!"
Immediately after, Chen Yang took out a bag of top-grade spirit stones and the branch of the Jianmu.
At that instant, Shi Xin Chou's eyes widened.
Shi Xin Chou quickly took the Jianmu, observed it carefully for a while, and then, unable to suppress his inner curiosity, eagerly looked at Chen Yang and asked, "Where did you get this thing?"
"Do you know what this is?"
Chen Yang smiled and said, "Of course I know what it is. Isn't it Jianmu!"
"However, this is not the main trunk of Jianmu, but a branch."
Upon hearing this, Shi Xin Chou felt his mind unable to keep up for a moment.
Shi Xin Chou naturally recognized the item in his hand, otherwise, he wouldn't have been so excited.
But Chen Yang's words made Shi Xin Chou doubt his own eyes.
"Jianmu… it is Jianmu, yes, but Jianmu should not have branches. You say this is not the main trunk of Jianmu?"
Shi Xin Chou's face darkened, and he began to repeatedly examine the branch in his hand.
For a moment, he even forgot to pick up the top-grade spirit stones on the table.
Just as Chen Yang was about to quietly put away the top-grade spirit stones…
