Chapter 540 (2/2)

Then turning his attention to the primal chaos bead, he was lost in thought again . Just what was the origin of this primal chaos bead? Whether it was the Earth Flame or the lightning rune, they had all been suppressed by it . Furthermore, it had seemed to be exceedingly easy .

The only regretful thing was other than the fact that it could grow plants quickly, he had no idea how to use its abilities . Whether it was suppressing the Earth Flame or the lightning rune, it had all been done by the primal chaos bead on its own .

The primal chaos bead was definitely hiding many secrets . However, he had no idea what they were . He would have to investigate them slowly over time .

Just as he was about to sit, Long Chen suddenly felt intense pain coming from every part of his body . Looking inside himself, he couldn’t help but grumble . The lightning rune had almost completely destroyed his body . These injuries were too severe .

During the fight against the lightning rune just now, he had been constantly suffering injuries . Thus, he had long since used up all the life energy in the trees .

With no other choice, he consumed a healing pill . Although healing pills had very little effect on him, it was better than nothing .

He summoned Little Snow and had him carry him away from here . Little Snow was his only support right now .

Little Snow brought him rus.h.i.+ng through this gra.s.sland . Long Chen no longer knew which direction he was going or where he was . He just let Little Snow run as he pleased .

In any case, his goal was to leave the area of tribulation as fast as possible . He didn’t want anyone to know that he was the one who had undergone tribulation, as that might bring on endless trouble .

Little Snow traveled for half a day when a small lake appeared in front of him . The water was incredibly clear, and the sound of birds singing made the scenery extremely pleasing .

Furthermore, those birds didn’t feel any fear once Long Chen and Little Snow arrived . They didn’t fly away and simply watched from a distance .

“It seems this is a peaceful land without any fierce beasts . Otherwise, these birds wouldn’t be this daring . ”

Long Chen had Little Snow rest here while he focused on circulating the primal chaos s.p.a.ce to recover the life energy .

Injuries from heavenly tribulation were different from other injuries . If his injuries were done by another person, he wouldn’t even need to bother doing this, and his body would just recover naturally .

However, injuries from the Heavenly Daos were something he had to use the purest life energy to heal . If he didn’t have this primal chaos s.p.a.ce, he really might have been doomed .

“Oh? The primal chaos s.p.a.ce actually got bigger . ” Long Chen suddenly noticed that the primal chaos s.p.a.ce had grown to three hundred miles at some unknown time .

This discovery startled and delighted him . Ignoring his injuries, he began planting seeds of those huge trees everywhere .

Following the circulation of the primal chaos s.p.a.ce, small saplings began to grow out of the ground . Long Chen had planted over a thousand trees in one go . Once those trees matured, he would practically have an undying body .

However, he now saw that the trees were growing slower and slower .

In two hours, those saplings only grew to a height of three meters . This speed was many times slower than before .

“Maybe I was a bit too greedy…” Long Chen bitterly smiled . Maybe it really had been too much to immediately plant a thousand trees .

However, these large trees were his greatest a.s.surance, and he had to completely mature them .

“That’s right, it seems corpses can also make them grow faster . ” Long Chen suddenly recalled his experiment with Luo Bing’s corpse . When he had thrown it into the black soil of the primal chaos s.p.a.ce, her corpse had been devoured, and a powerful life energy had nourished the medicinal ingredients here .

“But I don’t have any corpses on hand . Would Magical Beast cores work as well?” Long Chen took out a crystal core from a spatial ring . He had dozens of these cores in his spatial ring; the majority of which were from third or fourth rank Magical Beasts . He only had a few fifth rank crystal cores .

His spirit entered the primal chaos s.p.a.ce . He saw that the black soil had also grown to the size of a mile with the growth of the s.p.a.ce .

Throwing a crystal core inside it, he was startled to find that the core also dissolved . In just a few breaths’ time, the small saplings grew slightly larger .

“It really is effective!” Although it wasn’t very obvious, it was definitely at least slightly effective . He hastily brought over all the spatial rings in the primal chaos s.p.a.ce .

Within the Jiuli secret realm, he had harvested plenty of battle spoils, and he had over a hundred spatial rings .

He took out all the crystal cores in those spatial rings . However, he was slightly disappointed that those crystal cores were too low in quality .

He ended up throwing in over ten thousand crystal cores, but those saplings only grew less than ten meters . Such saplings weren’t able to give him much life energy .

But at the very least, those large trees had also recovered some of their vitality . Long Chen carefully extracted a portion of their life energy to nourish his body .

To subdue that final lightning rune, he had suffered incredibly heavy injuries . He would need a while to heal .

“That’s right, after pa.s.sing the tribulation, another piece of information appeared in my head . ”
