572 Seven Star Heavenly Fire Fan (1/2)
Mo Wen glanced at the other two ”eggs”. Yin Banshuang and Jin Ying were obviously still refining the Vital Qi. The two of them were just normal ancient martial art practitioners and did not know the spiritual rhymed formula of the immortal cultivators. Hence, it was impossible for them to be as fast as Mo Wen.
Although Mo Wen had started refining after them and his total amount of Vital Qi was far more than theirs, he had still finished refining before they did.
He looked at the surroundings. The huge garden was barren. In the distance, there was a palace building. Who knew how many secrets were hidden in there? However, he did not dare to simply go over and investigate. It was because he knew that this sort of place could well be somewhere he was likely to die. Even some immortal cultivators would not dare enter a palace such as this, let alone an ancient martial art practitioner like him.
Luckily, there were no problems around the pool and he did not need to be cautious as he strolled around.
”Huh?” Mo Wen discovered that the hole that the spider Puppet Monster had climbed out of was actually very deep. He could not see the bottom as he glanced down.
”Is this a passageway?” A doubtful look flashed in his eyes. There seemed to be a passageway at the bottom of the hole, extending far down. Who knew where it led?
Mo Wen hesitated for a moment. Seeing as both Yin Banshuang and Jin Ying would not awaken anytime soon, he carefully leaped into the hole, slowly walking deeper into the depths of the passageway.
It was very dark inside, but that did not affect Mo Wen. After walking some distance downwards, he discovered there was light inside. The light was very weak, but in the darkness, it was exceptionally bright.
”What is that?” A look of amazement flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. On the ground in the middle of the passageway was an item that emitted light. He carefully picked up and discovered that it was a feather. It was very beautiful and crimson gold, like the tail feather of a phoenix. He had just grasped the pretty tail feather in his hands when it sent a warm aura flowing into his body. It was very comfortable.
”What is this thing?” Mo Wen narrowed his eyes slightly. His intuition told him that this was no ordinary tail feather. But exactly what was special about it, he could not tell.
Mo Wen looked at the tail feather in his hand, and then looked at the deep passageway. He hesitated for a moment and did not continue forward. There were dangerous traps hidden everywhere. Simply walking around would very likely cause him to be in danger.
He flew out of the hole. Yin Banshuang and Jin Ying were still practicing. Mo Wen looked at the crimson gold tail feather in his hand. He touched his chin as he got lost in his thoughts.
After who knew how long, he suddenly discovered something bizarre. The Vital Qi that was floating in mid-air was actually moving bit by bit. All of it seemed to be coalescing with the crimson gold tail feather as its center.
After a short while, the Vital Qi flew through the air in front of Mo Wen, surrounding the crimson gold tail feather and slowly circling it.
”Could it be?” A strange look flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. His gaze was fixed on the tail feather in his hand. Could it be that the reason why all the Vital Qi coalesced in mid-air was related to this crimson gold tail feather?
An item that could coalesce Vital Qi was a most precious treasure! In the Immortal Cultivation world, it was definitely something people would be fighting over.
Only the mighty who were full of talent could use their own bodies' cultivation to coalesce Vital Qi. Aside from that, there were only a few magical items that had such an ability. But these items were too few and were extremely rare.
Mo Wen had previously wondered whether the Vital Qi coalescing over the pool was related to any divine items. He never imagined that his assumption was actually true.
Did it mean that in the future, as long as he carried the crimson gold tail feather on his person, he would be able to endlessly gather Vital Qi?
Merely thinking about it made Mo Wen feel as though he was in a dream. Right now, he had absorbed Vital Qi once and would be unable to absorb any more for some period of time. In around six months though, when his body had completely adapted to the restructuring caused by the Vital Qi, he could absorb it again.
If an ancient martial art practitioner could endlessly use Vital Qi to be reborn, he would finally naturally develop spiritual roots. The possibility of him becoming immortal then would be very high.
The hand in which Mo Wen held the crimson gold tail feather trembled slightly. He could not believe he had actually ended up owning such a thing.
His surprise increased when the Vital Qi surrounding the crimson gold tail feather actually entered it. It gushed in and quickly completely disappeared. It was as though the Vital Qi had been consumed by the crimson gold tail feather.
”What's the matter?” The corner of Mo Wen's mouth twitched when he discovered that none of the Vital Qi was left. Could it be that the magical tail feather was snatching the Vital Qi from him?
Before Mo Wen could think any more deeply about it, the crimson gold tail feather suddenly released a crimson gold glow and became hotter and hotter. It was like a burning piece of coal. Before Mo Wen could react, a bizarre power gushed into his body. A loud bang sounded in his mind, and he was directly plunged into darkness.
After who knew how long, Mo Wen shook his head and slowly crawled up from the ground. In his mind, new pieces of information suddenly appeared. A large mess of things had appeared in his mind out of nowhere.
”Inferno Star Lord? What is that?” Mo Wen shook his head, trying to follow the new information in his mind. Inferno Star Lord… Seven Star Heavenly Fire Fan… an emperor…
The mess of information was all mixed together. It took a long while before Mo Wen was able to sift through it bit by bit. The more he managed to see, the less he understood. The information was choppy and he was unable to connect the different strands together.
He only knew that the master of the palace in this mysterious space was a fellow called the Inferno Star Lord. He seemed to have been an incredible figure in ancient times. He was known as the Emperor and was worshipped by tens of thousands.
Later, due to unknown reasons, he fell and his palace was destroyed. A strong practitioner of a generation had been lost to the flow of history just like that.
”Seven Star Heavenly Fire Fan?” Mo Wen looked twice at the crimson gold tail feather in his hand. This thing had previously been called the Seven Star Heavenly Fire Fan. It was the most precious treasure that the Inferno Star Lord carried with him. However, this tail feather was just a seventh of the Seven Star Heavenly Fire Fan. The fan was made from the tail feathers of seven different bird type giant monstrous beasts. It had earth-shaking power.
The crimson gold tail feather in Mo Wen's hand was just a seventh of the Seven Star Heavenly Fire Fan. Obviously, the mysterious fan had been completely separated into pieces.
What had completely dumbfounded Mo Wen was that the information revealed that only by obtaining the completed Seven Star Heavenly Fire Fan could he receive the inheritance of the Inferno Star Lord.
Mo Wen was not too interested in the inheritance of the Inferno Star Lord. However, he was very interested in the Seven Star Heavenly Fire Fan. A single tail feather already had the ability to coalesce Vital Qi. If it was a completed Seven Star Heavenly Fire Fan, how magnificent would that be?
