Although Yang Chen’s body had been through the nourishment of the life essence from thousands of immortals, that did not mean there was no waste in his body. Because of this, Yang Chen’s body was actually the one that had the most waste since he had absorbed all the different properties of life essences from the immortals.
Yang Chen did not seem to have a problem now, but that was just due to the fact that his cultivation was low. When his cultivation slowly advanced to a higher level, the hidden illnesses would then slowly appear.
Ultimately, the demon inside old devil Yi was still a demon. Entering the sect was easy, whereas the cultivation in the future would no longer be as effortless. Essentially, this fact still would not change.
However it was completely different now. With the Black Coral Liquid of the Four Seas, even if Yang Chen did not remove the waste in his body it would still be no match for the drink Yang Chen was holding, there would still be a day where all the waste in his body would be cleansed completely.
Yang Chen discovered this after he realised the waste in his body were far more than the waste in Heavenly Roar. At that moment, Yang Chen was wondering the reason the waste in Heavenly Roar was lesser than the waste in his body although Heavenly Roar was a blood vessel aroused by the blood essence of the Heavenly Roar dog. Trying to understand this, Yang Chen broke out in a cold sweat, followed by a sigh with fear.
It seemed that the Heavens was trying to set Yang Chen’s mind at ease, that was the reason he was presented with the Black Coral Liquid of the Four Seas to him. Even if such a grand gift were to come by a hundred more times a day, Yang Chen still would not reject it.
Heavenly Roar, you really are my lucky star!
Yang Chen shouted ecstatically and could not help but hug Heavenly Roar.
Perhaps Heavenly Roar could sense the delight in Yang Chen, it also swayed joyfully in Yang Chen’s arms. The black waste on their bodies were wiped all over them, causing a huge mess.
Splash! A water stream appeared out of nowhere, just like the last time during the foundation building stage, Yang Chen controlled the water stream and washed away the waste on his body and on Heavenly Roar’s body as well. He then quickly collected the waste into a jade bottle. These wastes that were excreted from the body would act as good medicine to cure the slow poisons.
Both of the treasures had amazed Yang Chen, making Yang Chen more eager to find out what the rest of the items were.
What Yang Chen was disappointed at, was that among the remaining five jade cases, only the restriction on the jade cup could resonate with Heavenly Roar, radiating rays of light.
This time the light was still blue in colour, but Heavenly Roar was no longer gobbling down the brilliance, instead it was acting like it had been well-fed, requiring time to digest.
Yang Chen was helplessly looking at the performance of Heavenly Roar. Its level was too low. Engulfing two restrictions of dragon breath was already its limit. Naturally, it would not be able to absorb the third restriction any faster.
The only thing was, the curiosity inside Yang Chen was getting more intense. The only thing Yang Chen could do was communicate with Heavenly Roar through the Beast Controlling Secret. Listing down the numerous benefits, he persuaded Heavenly Roar to risk its life swallowing the dragon breath for the last time.
Just when Heavenly Roar was struggling to engulf the dragon breaths in the third restriction, it could not resist the feeling of having swallowed too much dragon breaths and immediately passed out on Yang Chen’s hands.
Yang Chen carefully sent Heavenly Roar back to the Medicine Garden and put the Bright Ray Sword and the Blood Phantom Vine Sword beside it. After putting another few pieces of fragments of treasure beside Heavenly Roar, he then came out from the garden.
Yang Chen brought the green jade cup which was on the jade case into his hands carefully and put it in front of his eyes. In fact, just like the bottle gourd, the inside of the jade cup was not empty. The jade cup contained a transparent and odourless liquid.
What is this?
Yang Chen was being extremely cautious, dared not shake it a little, being afraid that even a drop of the liquid would spill out. Yang Chen sniffed it and found nothing special. He had the urge to channel his spirit power into the liquid, but after thinking about the consequences he had faced from doing so to the golden bell, he decided to hold back, and started using his spiritual awareness to investigate it instead.
The spiritual awareness penetrated the jade cup easily, not even stopping for a second. Yang Chen was stunned, this had not happened before. Could it be that this treasure was no ordinary treasure?
After trying it again, his spiritual awareness penetrated through the jade cup easily yet again, not staying inside the cup for even a single moment. Yang Chen then discovered something. He put the jade cup on the ground cautiously and shut his eyes. He tried using his spiritual awareness to investigate once again, and Yang Chen was left in shock.
Ever since Yang Chen cultivated Three Purities Secret, his spiritual awareness had increased gradually and had even absorbed the killing intent on the Immortal Executioner’s Platform. After fusing the different kinds of flameballs, plus absorbing many other treasures, his spiritual awareness was now at the level of Yuanying stage. Moreover, with the formidable spiritual awareness of the Three Purities Secret, even the old tree demon, Gui Shanyou of Dacheng stage, was extremely good at concealing himself could be discovered by Yang Chen.
But now, when Yang Chen closed his eyes, he could not sense the things that were in front of him. If he had not known initially that the jade cup was put there, he certainly would have thought that there was nothing in front of him.
An item that could be invisible to the spiritual awareness was practically a miracle. If this was used to make an armour covering the whole body, it meant that people around him could not discover him using spiritual awareness.
Nonetheless, if the spiritual awareness could not discover it and markings could not be made on it, then how was it supposed to be refined? For the time being, Yang Chen had not thought of a reliable method.
Another thing that questioned Yang Chen was the identity of the transparent liquid in the jade cup. In his memories, he had no clear recollections of it. This was strange, could it be that it was just an ordinary clear water?
With extreme caution, Yang Chen used a silver needle he had just refined and dipped it into the jade cup. Once the silver needle had been soaked with some of the liquid, he then slowly drew it out.
Once it was half a feet away from the jade cup, Yang Chen could sense an exceptionally pure Tenth Water Spirit Power from the silver needle. The spirit power was very pure, even the Tenth Water Spirit Power inside Yang Chen’s own body was attracted to it and started propagating waves.
Here! Here!
Yang Chen was immersed in the pure spirit power yet his mouth suddenly blurted out those two words.
This was not any ordinary clear water, this was obviously the purest tenth water True Qi of the Tenth Water Spirit Power. By cultivating the tenth water, much of the True Qi could be obtained. Being the source of the tenth water True Qi secrets, the tenth water True Qi was what Yang Chen had been searching high and low for.
Yang Chen could not find the words to describe his feelings at this moment. Other than looking up to the heavens and laughing heartily, there were no other ways to express himself. There was nobody there yet Yang Chen was alone laughing inappropriately like a madman, so he tried his best so suppress his excitement.
With this tenth water True Qi, Yang Chen could now cultivate the tenth water True Qi secrets, bringing him one step closer to completing the Great Five Phases of the Yin and Yang Secrets. Similar to enhancing his cultivation, this was also one of the things he had been wanting to accomplish so far.
Yang Chen however, was still a bit worried. There was only a little tenth water True Qi in the jade cup, was it enough for him to cultivate the tenth water True Qi secrets?
Regardless of what it was, Yang Chen still wanted to collect the the tenth water True Qi first. If he was not careful enough, he might accidentally spill some of the tenth water True Qi while carrying the jade cup.
Storing the tenth water True Qi was not as simple as it seemed. It was necessary to use the jade bottle, not to mention it required many spells and talismans to prevent the tenth water True Qi from vaporising.
To collect the tenth water True Qi, Yang Chen had to do some preparation work. This was not a surprise, because even based on Scarface’s cultivation, he took many years to collect the seventh metal True Qi.
Of course Yang Chen did not need such a long time to prepare since the tenth water True Qi was already in the jade cup. Once Yang Chen poured it into the jade bottle, the job would be done. Hence, all Yang Chen needed to prepare were mainly the talismans.
Although the preparation that needed to be done had decreased a lot, but for safety purposes Yang Chen still made at least another three times of the talismans required. There was no other way as his cultivation level was low and could not be compared with Scarface’s, thus all he could do was use quantities for compensation.
Raising the jade cup cautiously, Yang Chen leaned the jade cup on the mouth of the jade bottle. Tilting it slightly, he poured the tenth water True Qi into the jade bottle, praying that not a single drop of it would be wasted. There were no other options. The jade cup was the size of a hand palm and the tenth water True Qi inside was very shallow, not even reaching half of the small bottle. Even if a drop of it was wasted, Yang Chen would surely get a heartache.
Once the tenth water True Qi was poured into the jade vase, Yang Chen quickly put down the jade cup and immediately did a series of hand movements to stick around ten talismans onto the jade bottle instantly. Yang Chen executed the series of movements within the time it would take for a spark to die out, not pausing at all. When all were done and the jade bottle was no longer exposing any bit of the tenth water True Qi, Yang Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
After keeping the jade bottle into the Achievement Ring, just when Yang Chen wanted to store the jade cup, it vibrated tremendously. There was actually moisture in the bottom of the jade cup!
Yang Chen had poured the jade cup head first, so there shouldn’t be any moisture left inside already. But why was there still moisture?
Yang Chen surely did not remember wrongly, he believed his own memory. When he tipped the jade cup over, he had poured all of the tenth water True Qi out. What was now left at the bottom of jade cup was certainly not the residue from just now.
Realising that there was a problem, Yang Chen also could not store the jade cup away. He wanted to find out what other magic the jade cup could do.
The whole duration of waiting was unbearable. After cultivating Three Purities Secret and Yin Yang Five Phases Secret, he then practised the Huangjin Body Refining Technique. Seeing that the jade cup still had no apparent changes, he took out his bottle gourd and jade cup, drank a full cup of the Dark Coral Liquid of the Four Seas and yeast before sleeping soundly on the nautical map.
Yang Chen’s body truly contained too much waste. After drinking the Dark Coral Liquid of the Four Seas, once again he was fast asleep and his body started oozing waste that was oily and black in color.
Yang Chen had no fear of danger in Dragon King’s underwater secret treasury, sleeping freely in there. This time round, he slept even longer.
After sleeping for five whole days and nights, he woke up and straight away glimpsed at the jade cup that was not very far away, not caring about the grease on his body.
Some liquid had miraculously appeared at the bottom of the jade cup! Although it was just less than a hundredth of the original volume, it was evident that there was liquid in it now.
While containing his excitement, Yang Chen carefully extracted some of the liquid using the silver needle and instantly he could feel the presence of the purity of the tenth water True Qi again.
Sure enough, the jade cup could accumulate the tenth water True Qi by itself. This characteristic alone made it incredibly valuable. In addition to that, it could not be discovered by spiritual awareness, which made it a one-of-a-kind treasure.
Since he was now at the East Sea, and the tenth water True Qi was in fact water from the sea, Yang Chen decided to just wait there. Until he had collected enough tenth water True Qi for him to cultivate the tenth water True Qi secrets only would he return.
Taking advantage of the time he had, he then used the Dark Coral Liquid of the Four Seas to excrete all the waste his body. If not, some hidden illnesses might linger in his body and create problems for him in the future. The secret treasury in Dragon King’s palace was so safe that Yang Chen did not worry about his safety the entire time while he was asleep.
Although the Second Fierce Yang Courtyard was also safe, the old tree demon was absorbing the PengLai Divine Wood, while his divided body was overseeing Hundred Thousand Mountains, so he probably couldn’t focus on protecting Yang Chen. The environment here was conducive and would not raise the suspicions of people. It was just the right place for Yang Chen to do all he wanted.
Yang Chen had never thought that there were so many hidden sicknesses in his body. He was scared after that, but at the same time he was also rejoicing. He would not have noticed if he had not gotten his hands on the Dark Coral Liquid of the Four Seas. Looking from this perspective, he was still considered lucky.
While waiting for the jade cup to absorb the tenth water True Qi from the East Sea, Yang Chen had drunk at least ten cups of the Dark Coral Liquid of the Four Seas and slept for over two hundred days.
When the body first started oozing waste, it was black in colour and oily. But gradually the colour started fading and became grey in colour. And now, there was more or less no waste coming out from the body. If there was any sickness, the Dark Coral Liquid of the Four Seas would cure it, and if there wasn’t any, it would protect the body. Drinking more of it would not cause any significant issues.
The jade cup continuously absorbed four cups of the tenth water True Qi, filling up the jade bottle. This amount of tenth water True Qi would suffice for Yang Chen to cultivate the tenth water True Qi secrets.
Heavenly Roar had been sound asleep all this time. It appeared that absorbing the third restriction had made it exceed its limit. Until now, Heavenly Roar still could not digest all the dragon breaths.
Counting using one hand, Yang Chen had remained in the secret treasury of the Dragon King’s palace for a year already. Yang Chen needed to leave as his disappearance for a year would certainly distress the Palace Master. Plus, he had made a promise to the Palace Master that he would travel with Sun Qingxue. It looked like he had no choice but to travel to the Clear Sky Sect.
Luckily he was qualified to join the auction at Clear Sky Sect. A sect like that often auctioned quality goods. It might be possible for him to reach there in time and check out the items sold there.
Leaving the secret treasury, just when Yang Chen’s flying shuttle appeared in the deep part of the sea, his mind became unsettled. Was it possible for the people chasing after him to have stumbled upon a battle at the few qiankun pouches locations?
Far away from the treasury, Yang Chen opened a slight gap at the opponent’s spiritual awareness marking. Just this small movement, Yang Chen sensed that his spiritual awareness was starting to tremble a little. This meant that the other person was still searching for him.
Immediately, Yang Chen became furious. Why would someone try to track me down and pester me? Do they possibly think I’m a helpless play dough which anyone can play with?
