The Spiritual Attainment of Minghe

Chapter 403: Meeting Hongjun Again



The source of all this was a tree. Minghe looked over and was instantly shocked when he saw the true nature of the tree, which was Spiritual Roots of Chaos. He never thought that there would be Spiritual Roots of Chaos in the Starry Sky Region. Looking at its situation, he was unavoidably filled with doubts.

After all, the Spiritual Roots of Chaos was rare even in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. Any Spiritual Roots of Chaos would be scrambled for by countless forces. Now, in the Land of Central Region, only several forces owned it. Among the forces, the Yun Ling Academy was one. According to legend, its name was related to the Spiritual Roots of Chaos.

In the Library, Minghe once saw the records of the Spiritual Roots of Chaos. It was called Yun Ling Way-leading Tree, a Top Grade Spiritual Roots of Chaos. It yielded Yun Ling Fruits once every million years. It was said that the fruits had a unique effect that it could enlighten people. However, the Yun Ling Elixir was refined by tree sap secreted from the Spiritual Roots.

However, the Spiritual Roots of Chaos took the power of cosmic stars as nutrients. When it yielded, it caused great mysterious signs. Thus, it could be seen that it was definitely not a common Spiritual Roots of Chaos. More surprisingly, it had a long period of experience before it grew so large, but it was not carried off, which was really strange.

Was it because of these Giant Beasts of Starry Sky? But that wasn’t true. If experts of A Half Step to the Supreme Realm among those forces in the Central Region went into action, they were sure to carry off the Spiritual Roots of Chaos from these beasts. After all, some sky-level forces did not have such a treasure. Since there was one, they had no reason not to take it.

At the thought of this, Minghe could not help but sigh. If he had known it, he would have spent more time in the Library. Before he came to the Starry Sky Region, he also looked over some relevant records, but did not finish them. If he had known this, he would not only just glanced through it, to avoid being puzzled.

Fortunately, many people had gathered. From their conversations, Minghe also could collect some useful information. However, to his surprise, someone suddenly flew over and said, "Minghe, it’s been a long time. I never thought that you also came to the Starry Sky Region. Middle Stage of the Fate Realm? You are really making great progress in cultivation."

Upon hearing the familiar voice, he immediately turned his head, and discovered that it was exactly who he thought it was. Then, he said with a smile, "Hongjun, I haven’t seen you for a long time. I never thought that I would meet you here. I’m also surprised. Middle Stage of the Fate Realm? It’s the same for you." Obviously, Minghe never thought that he would meet Hongjun here once again. Actually, everything was fate.

At this moment, Minghe had caught up with Hongjun’s cultivation. However, although both of them reached the Middle Stage of the Fate Realm, Hongjun might reach the Realm earlier than Minghe. Moreover, even though Hongjun’s cultivation might be more profound than Minghe’s, it was extremely limited. In terms of cultivation, Minghe was almost on par with Hongjun.

As for fighting ability, Minghe was also uncertain. As the Great Way said, the Battlefield of Gods and Demons was full of Fated Chances. If Minghe could obtain Fated Chances, so could Hongjun. After all, Hongjun was an incarnation of the primordial Rakshasa and knew some secrets of Rakshasa. However, Minghe became the Rakshasa through hard work. Therefore, there was a big difference between them.

When Minghe assessed Hongjun, Hongjun also did the same thing. Hongjun could not evaluate Minghe more than he did before when they met last time. The improvement of cultivation was not that important. He would not forget that Minghe was Rakshasa, who was most dependent on the human body, so he would not naively think that Minghe had given up on practicing his body. Since Minghe’s Original Spirit had reached the Middle Stage of the Fate Realm, his body would definitely not be inferior.

They were silent for a moment. Then, Hongjun said, "Minghe, do you also long for the fruits of the Star Tree of Origin? However, it is not easy to obtain them. Now, only some people and beasts have gathered here. It would take 10,000 years before the fruits ripen. When they are fully matured, experts might have gathered here in crowds." #

"Originally, the tree was called Star Tree of Origin." Minghe thought to himself. He certainly knew what Hongjun meant. When the fruits matured fully, there would definitely be a fierce fight. However, in terms of cultivation, it would be difficult for Minghe and Hongjun to obtain the benefit, unless they used their hidden cards.

From the words, Hongjun seemed to be planning to collaborate with him. Minghe had to think clearly because Hongjun was shrewd. Earlier, Minghe had learned from Hongjun in Untainted Land. If they had to cooperate now, he would have to be on his guard. After weighing the pros and cons, Minghe came to a decision.

Minghe looked at the fruits on the Star Tree of Origin and said, "Although there are 365 fruits, a lot of people will seize them. Perhaps some experts at the peak of the Fate Realm will also come. In this case, we perhaps can’t grab the fruits, even if we take an action."

Hongjun looked at Minghe and said, "Minghe, let’s be straightforward. Since you’re here, you won’t be willing to return empty-handed. It just isn’t your style. Although the peak of the Fate Realm is powerful, I don’t believe that you have no countermeasures. Since we’ve met here, we’re predestined. Why don’t we join hands to grab the fruits? Are you agreeable?"

Minghe listened to this and thought for a moment, and then, he nodded and answered, "Okay. Hongjun, I agree to join hands with you." Although Hongjun was not very credible, it was the best choice for Minghe to collaborate with him. Once the fierce war broke out, the scene would be chaotic. Until then, even if he arranged Four-pole Separation Evil Formation, it would probably not be effective. Hence, he could only depend on Anti-evil Axe, a Highest Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos.

With the Anti-evil Axe, Minghe was powerful enough to fight to the end with experts at the Late Stage of the Fate Realm. When necessary, he would arrange Four-pole Separation Evil Formation. Even if he could not arrange the formation after being disturbed, those Separation Beasts used for formation were a strong military power. Most importantly, they did not fear death. In an emergency, they would not hesitate to destroy themselves. After all, Minghe had already possessed Four-pole Blood Evil Formation, which could replace them completely.

Although he agreed to collaborate with Hongjun, Minghe did not really believe that Hongjun was doing so merely for the fruits. In other words, Hongjun wanted more. So did Minghe. After all, the Fruits of Stars of Origin were not common Spiritual Fruits. Even if he stood here, Minghe could clearly feel the vital force of the Origin of Stars contained inside the fruits.

In the Starry Sky Region, all 365 primary stars, including the sun and the moon, were Avatars. Their real bodies were in the High Layer of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. Inconceivably, the Star Tree of Origin could absorb the Power of Stars emitted from the Avatars of the primary stars to form a fruit with a bit of power of the Origin of the primary stars.

Such a bit of power was priceless for any cultivators. Whether for cultivation or for refining weapons and elixir, these fruits were very effective, so they would attract so many people. Moreover, the fruits seemed not to come into the world for the first time. As time passed, more and more people would come here specially for them. Until then, a messy fight was unavoidable.

To the confusion of Minghe, there was no force scrambling for the Star Tree of Origin. He doubted if there were some secrets. With concerns, Minghe could not help but start to observe the tree carefully. He guessed that there must be something special so that the Spiritual Roots of Chaos could grow in the Starry Sky Region, but he did not notice it at that moment.

After Minghe agreed to cooperate, Hongjun said no more, but sat cross-legged in the Starry Sky and closed his eyes to rest and wait for the final maturity of the fruits. At that time, it was dangerous, so Hongjun had to ensure that he was at the best state. In doing so, he could deal with the fight, which could break out at any time.

After a long time, Minghe’s facial expression changed slightly. He finally understood that why the Star Tree of Origin could be safe and sound for so long. The tree seemed not to naturally grow in the Starry Sky Region but be planted here. From the Star Tree of Origin, Minghe could feel a bit of vital force of special limit.

Minghe had never seen this kind of limit, for which was not of Spiritual Treasure or tactical formation. When he sensed the limit, Minghe felt a mortal threat. As if he took an action against Star Tree of Origin, he would definitely die. Just because of this, Star Tree of Origin could grow safely in the Starry Sky Region.

However, Minghe could not imagine who would have planted such a valuable treasure here, and his purpose for doing it. Since the Star Tree of Origin could not move, only its fruits could move. He guessed that the man aimed to spread the fruits. He wondered if there were some secrets behind the fruits.

At the thought of this, Minghe made up his mind. When he returned to the Yun Ling Academy, he would read all records in the Library, to avoid repeating the same predicament next time. But now, the most important thing was to consider which fruits to scramble for. Honestly, Minghe wanted to contend for the two fruits, which represented the sun and the moon.
