Chapter 1338: Jade Dragon Frost

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Xia Fei was puzzled after he examined what was under the microscope. Spores? Whats so strange about that?

Chu Jingfeng answered gleefully, These are no ordinary spores. Look at the speed that theyre dividing and reproducing; its absolutely stunning, almost as if theyre fighting against something.

Xia Fei carefully examined the spores again; sure enough, they seemed to be under serious a.s.sault, resisting the harm from the environment that they were in through constant cellular division, as though they were cultivating the Law of Speed.

Chu Jingfeng said in a deep voice, You need to know that these are spores that havent been stored in any protective devices, which goes to show that, after so many years, theyve evolved to the point where they can achieve equilibrium with the environment! The Jade Dragon Frost is no longer as fragile as it used to be!

Xia Fei was startled. Jade Dragon Frost was a very fragile plant, and the Four Great Sky Devils had to set up a specialized nursery with the appropriate environment just so they could try nurturing it.

!!

Alas, the Four Great Sky Devils had failed. Not a single Jade Dragon Frost had survived.

Apparently, that plant did not come from where sapient life flourished and, instead, came from some unknown universe.

It was still fine during the germination period, as the plants outer sh.e.l.l would act as a protective layer for it, but the moment the Jade Dragon Frost begin to grow and take root, it would be under the environments constant a.s.sault, wilting and dying as a result.

This situation was akin to throwing a human into the sea. Without any access to breathable air, they would die, so unless they suddenly grew gills and transformed into a merperson, there would not be any way for a human to escape from the difficulties the environment presented them.

After Xia Fei understood this, his whole body shuddered and he croaked, Are you saying that enough time has pa.s.sed for the Jade Dragon Frost to adapt to its surroundings?!

Chu Jingfeng nodded gravely and said in an impa.s.sioned voice, The Four Great Sky Devils didnt fail. They found a way for the Jade Dragon Frost to survive, and the only thing they lacked was time, unable to wait for this very moment today!

Xia Fei remained seated in his chair, his emotions in turmoil for the longest time.

The flow of things had been made clear at this moment. No one knew where the Four Great Sky Devils had gotten the seed of Jade Dragon Frost, only that they were hoping for such a miraculous plant to sprout. Alas, unable to adapt to its surroundings, the plant was a failure despite them having spent many years nurturing it.

Later, when the Four Great Sky Devils had departed, the nursery, which they had constructed, had not stopped operating and had automatically kept following their last directives, constantly nurturing the Jade Dragon Frost within.

Time flew by, and the Fiends had eventually found themselves pushed to the edge of extinction. The existence of the nursery was all but forgotten. Xia Fei, who had recently begun working with Chu Jingfeng to rejuvenate G.o.ds Eden, incidentally stumbled upon the secret of the nursery. From that time on, the automated nurturing system had managed to accomplish the work that Lord Sky Devil had entrusted it back then and had even successfully nurtured a Jade Dragon Frost, which could survive being in the Annihilation Universe!

This was an amazing legacy! Spanning across countless thousands of years, the Four Great Sky Devils lifelong regret had finally been resolved! It was just that Xia Fei became the one who could get his hand on the surviving Jade Dragon Frost!

With that, Xia Fei could only feel his hands tremble from his excitement!

The plant, which the Four Great Sky Devils had cherished so muchsomething which they had not managed to nurture before leaving, was now in Xia Feis hands! Perhaps this would become a precious treasure that could transcend the known universe!

Very soon, Xia Fei calmed down in the face of this excitement and composed another a.n.a.lysis.

How confident are you that you can get this Jade Dragon Frost to bear fruit? Xia Fei asked.

Chu Jingfeng gave it some thought and answered, I say its about fifty percent. The Jade Dragon Frost is currently in a state of equilibrium, while G.o.ds Eden has just begun to return to its former lush state.

Xia Fei nodded slightly. Looks like we need to be faster. That h.e.l.l Brigade was headed to the nursery earlier; it could be because they had caught wind of Jade Dragon Frosts existence and G.o.ds Eden even.

With that, Chu Jingfeng and Xia Fei opened the botanical preservation canister. They cut a piece of the cactus within in preparation for transplanting it.

This was when they heard the water in the canister slosh. Xia Fei turned to look and did not see anything strange.

What both Chu Jingfeng and he failed to notice was that the cactus had actually split open, and a pink tongue had surrept.i.tiously protruded from a small crack, which very deftly s.n.a.t.c.hed something away from the table!

The test results would take some time before they would be ready, so Xia Fei closed the canister and stored it back into his spatial ring. Later, after Xia Fei had departed, Chu Jingfeng tidied the table, only to discover that one of the Jade Frost Dragons seedlings had gone missing.

Could I have counted wrongly? Chu Jingfeng tilted his head to the side and wondered.

G.o.ds Eden was abnormally busy. Chu Jingfeng and Xu Luanbu were busy expanding the acreage of the garden, while Xia Fei was busy unleas.h.i.+ng his spirit energy to the place.

G.o.ds Eden was like a monster, which viewed Xia Feis spirit energy as food. In these past few days, G.o.ds Eden had already been restored with five pools, which were enough to irrigate five not-too-large gardens.

Xia Fei had intentionally increased his spirit energy input to G.o.ds Eden, from the trickle at the start to a thousand units at present.

*Rumble*

Suddenly, G.o.ds Eden swayed gently, prompting Xia Fei to halt his energy provision.

Chu Jingfeng and Xu Luanbu stopped their works as well and strolled over, both asking, Whats going on?!

Xia Fei shrugged. Nothing. Ive increased by a bit the amount of energy Im providing today, and in doing so, it seems to have triggered some underground system of this garden, causing tremors.

Chu Jingfeng said, G.o.ds Eden is amazing in that it has a complete ecosystem underground. Not only does it have a Lifewater spring, it even has an underground network. Everything was created by Lord Medicinal Cauldron Prince after much effort all those years back, so you must be extra careful with it all. If we were to lose this underground ecosystem, the entire G.o.ds Eden would be gone!

Lord Medicinal Cauldron Prince is already gone; theres no one else left at present who understands the profundity of G.o.ds Eden, not to mention repair the complex underground system.

Xia Fei nodded and told Chu Jingfeng to be at ease. It was only after the master-disciple duo had left that Xia Feis eyebrows knitted.

Penny for your thoughts? Radix asked.

Xia Fei looked at the ground beneath his feet and replied, the underground system of G.o.ds Eden has always seemed strange to me. That moment just now seemed to be someone feeding back energy to me.

Radix pursed his lips, You sure have quite the imagination. If you dont feel at ease, you can just check with your eye technique and see if theres really someone hiding underground.

Xia Fei actually did just that. Activating Origin of Heaven, he carefully combed through the underground system once over, but Xia Fei was still not rest a.s.sured after. He went to the flip side of G.o.ds Eden and examined the structure of the place once again.

G.o.ds Eden was like a disc floating in s.p.a.ce, with an energy barrier on the top side protecting the soil, water and buildings, while its foundation was made from a st.u.r.dy type of metal alloy.

Whats the matter? Found anything? Radix asked.

Xia Fei shook his head, It seems like the only thing below G.o.ds Eden is just a densely packed set of pipes with a complex system. Its far more complex than even the nervous system that runs through a human body. Honestly, I have no idea just how the Four Great Sky Devils could come up with such a dense network, or how they even did it.

Radix snorted dismissively, They must have done it for the benefit of the garden. Chu Jingfeng had also said that the underground system is the very essence of G.o.ds Eden, and that it is of the utmost importance. You better not dig a hole in the ground as a result of your curiosity and ruin the ecosystem created.

Xia Fei clicked his tongue after hearing that. Irritated, he sent Radix back into Nirvana to keep him from nagging anymore.

Though the job of providing the necessary nutrients to G.o.ds Eden was dull, it was not boring. He had over a million standard units of energy stored in his brain, so Xia Fei could keep fertilizing the garden while cultivating.

Chilled Ligament Ghost Valley no doubt lived up to its name, as it was extremely strange!

The existence of Chilled Ligament Ghost Valley was to help spiritualists cultivate their physical bodies beyond their limitations! Furthermore, the method of cultivating was very insane, requiring Xia Fei to use purely spirit energy to stimulate his body again and again.

This process was very much similar to electrocuting himself!

Letting the wires in his body link up and allowing electricity to travel through would immediately make any human lose bodily control, convulsing involuntarily, and in even more serious cases, it could outright cause death!

Xia Fei thought back to his time on earth when he heard about how a martial master of his generation, Bruce Lee, had let electricity coursed through his body so as to stimulate his muscles and meridians. He had not expected that this technique would use a similar method.

Of course, Xia Feis spirit energy stimulation was who knew how many tens of thousand times greater than being electrocuted. Normally, Xia Fei would also let spirit energy run through his body, but that was nothing more than running it across his meridians.

Meridians were like the channels that Xia Fei could use to transport energy within his body, where even the powerful and fierce spirit energy could travel through without any problems.

However Chilled Ligament Ghost Valley was different. It used spirit energy to connect every single cell in Xia Feis body. It was no different from turning spirit energy into chemical fluids and soaking his entire body in it!

This was absolutely frightening! The first time Xia Fei tried this cultivation method, he nearly lit his hair on fire. It was like his entire body had plunged into an active volcano!

Chilled Ligament Ghost Valley was truly something else. Its goal was to push the warrior right up to their very limits! Which was why it utilized such a brutal method!

Mental energy is what comes after physical cultivation, and then now it is inverted, using high level mental energy to stimulate the body! Xia Fei ended a cycle of cultivation and said to himself. The ancestors of the Unrestricted Sect sure were capable! To think they could even come up with such an insane cultivation method.

Xia Fei had the habit of getting stronger when facing even greater might, and he saw Chilled Ligament Ghost Valley as a sort of challenge! Was Xia Fei not always challenging himself, pus.h.i.+ng the very limits of what he was capable of all this while?

According to the prerequisite of Chilled Ligament Ghost Valley, Xia Fei needed to withstand a hundred standard units of spirit energy to reach the first rank.

A hundred standard units! It needed to be stated that spirit energy was calculated with a sort of ma.s.s metric! Those warriors in the Alpha Universe would kill to obtain a single standard unit of spirit energy, and it was all because a single unit of it would be enough to turn a mountain into flatlands when unleashed!

Spirit energy was the purest and most powerful form of energy in the universes!

To let a body withstand a hundred standard units of spirit energy without any sort of defenses, such a cultivation method would even make someone as crazy as Xia Fei feel that it was too insane!

*boom*

Xia Fei suddenly felt his entire body shudder while he was cultivating, and Radix exclaimed in shock, No way, did you make a breakthrough so soon!?

Xia Feis expression changed drastically. He stared at that extra large spatial ring on his hand, Peak Rainbow.
