Chapter 2180 Raw 2287 : Refining the Thunder Cliff Tree (1/2)

After crossing the herb field, there was a vast fog sea.

According to rumor, this fog sea had been the True G.o.d Paradise’s land of fortuitous encounters. Supposedly, someone once found a Divine Crystal there.

Someone had also found broken Divine Tools and treasures in the fog sea before. Some even obtained incomplete True G.o.d Flames.

As for Xiao Chen, he did not plan on searching for any fortuitous encounters in this fog sea.

Fortuitous encounters in the fog sea were much rarer than in the herb field, harder to find. Furthermore, these would mostly be some broken weapons, which were practically useless to Sovereign Personages.

In this age, one could no longer become a True G.o.d. Even if one had a Divine Tool, one could not use it.

Most of the Faux G.o.ds used Soul Tools. The so-called Divine Tools were not even as valuable as a Medial Grade Soul Tool.

The Divine Tool fragments’ merit lay mostly in research.

Of course, the fragments of True G.o.d Flames were valuable. However, the chances of finding a True G.o.d Flame fragment were even lower than finding a Divine Herb in the herb field.

As one traveled the fog sea, one’s perception and Soul Energy would suffer from significant restrictions. Everything one saw would be blurry; visibility was only one kilometer.

An ancient aura of devastation permeated the ground. Incomplete Dao lingered, inspiring deep thoughts.

This place should be one of the battlefields between the righteous and demonic factions, back when the Heavenly Realm shattered.

Xiao Chen felt relatively satisfied with this ancient battlefield. It was an ideal covert for consuming and refining that Thunder Cliff Tree.

“Here, then.”

Xiao Chen casually chose a deserted mountain. After ensuring that it was sufficiently remote, he took out the Thunder Cliff Tree, the one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King.

“Whoos.h.!.+”

The scene of Xiao Chen in the fog sea in the light screen outside the Trial Tower turned blurry. However, the general situation could still be made out.

“The Thunder Cliff Tree!”

“That is a one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King. It has been many years since a one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King appeared in that herb field.”

“If it were another one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King, it would not be that valuable. However, the Thunder Cliff Tree is genuinely incredible. Even non-lightning-attributed Faux G.o.ds can use it to avoid lightning tribulations. It is truly wondrous!”

“Indeed, if one could directly comprehend the principle behind its conversion of lightning tribulations into its own energy, one could become very strong.”

When the various super faction Faux G.o.d powerhouses saw Xiao Chen take out the Thunder Cliff Tree in the fog sea, they all became excited.

Mu Zifeng thought about it for a while. If this is really Xiao Chen, I have to remind him after he comes out.

If he does not manage this one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King well, it will bring endless disaster to him.

Just at this moment, a Faux G.o.d suddenly exclaimed, “What is he doing?!”

“He is going to refine that Thunder Cliff Tree. Is this fellow crazy? Refining that Thunder Cliff Tree with his insignificant cultivation is a waste of a heavenly item!”

Seeing that Xiao Chen wanted to monopolize and refine the one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King, the various super faction Faux G.o.d powerhouses showed somewhat unsightly expressions.

Everyone hoped that Xiao Chen would bring the Thunder Cliff Tree out.

After all, a Sovereign Personage could not thoroughly refine the Thunder Cliff Tree. Forcefully refining it would result in extremely great wastage.

The best method was to bring it out and trade it with a Faux G.o.d expert for a suitable treasure.

No one expected that Xiao Chen would choose to give up on this fog sea’s fortuitous encounters.

Keeping a low profile, Xiao Chen went to refine the Thunder Cliff Tree.

Many of these people could not have imagined that this would happen. However, they could only watch as it did.

“Who exactly is this fellow? I wonder if he knows that refining the Thunder Cliff Tree like this is very wasteful?” someone muttered. Although they guessed that the strange person was Xiao Chen, no one felt sure with his bandaged, bedsheet-draped appearance.

These people wanted to curse someone, but they needed to know whom to curse.

---

In the fog sea, Xiao Chen did not dwell on the matter. He focused on absorbing the Thunder Cliff Tree.

He knew that it would have been fine if it were a ten-thousand-year-old Herb King. Faux G.o.d experts would not pay too much mind to that.

However, once he left Paradise with a one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King, it would no longer be his.

If a Faux G.o.d took an interest in it, Xiao Chen would not have the strength to object.

The Thunder Cliff Tree was beneficial to Xiao Chen. Even if forcefully refining it resulted in some wastage, he absolutely would not exchange it for other treasures. Such a trade would not be worth it.

After the cultivators who fled the herb field settled down, they started searching the fog sea.

Compared to the abundance of fortuitous encounters in the herb field, the fortuitous encounters in the fog sea were much rarer.

However, the fog sea was still a land of fortuitous encounters. If one were lucky, one would receive something.
