Chapter 1602: Both Sides Profiting

A pillar of white water was pouring into Long Chen’s primal chaos s.p.a.ce. It rained down on the World Trees. During this time, the World Trees had grown to twelve thousand meters.

However, the larger they were, the slower they grew. After reaching twelve thousand meters, if he didn’t focus on circulating the primal chaos bead, he wouldn’t be able to sense them growing at all.

At this size, the World Trees were able to provide him with a huge amount of life energy. The entire primal chaos s.p.a.ce was filled with them. The World Trees were able to give him enough life energy that he wasn’t afraid of being injured at all.

However, this was far from their limit. Their limit was several times this height.

The larger the World Trees grew, the more life energy they contained. However, that also meant it would take more energy for them to grow. Long Chen estimated that if he spent day and night circulating the primal chaos bead, he would be able to nourish the World Trees to their limit in around ten years.

If he didn’t intentionally circulate the primal chaos bead, then it would take a thousand years. However, Long Chen didn’t have even a year to focus on doing this. He couldn’t even squeeze out a month. He had no time to focus on nouris.h.i.+ng the World Trees.

However, the white water was able to nourish them, allowing them to rapidly grow. In just a few breaths’ time, they reached fifteen thousand meters.

Long Chen was delighted. There was no way for him to directly absorb this white water, but seeing that the World Trees could absorb it, it meant that this white water was a priceless treasure to him.

As Long Chen crazily absorbed the white water, the woman’s eyes grew larger, and she covered her mouth.

This white water here could not be directly absorbed. She had managed to obtain a special flying boat that could enter the water and collect it. However, its gathering speed was measured in drops.

She had already been here for a while and only managed to gather a dozen bottles of it. In truth, offering Long Chen a bottle just now had been extremely generous of her.

“Hey, if you're so amazing, can you get me some too?” asked the woman.

“No problem.”

Long Chen smiled. In any case, this water didn’t belong to him, and this woman wasn’t bad. Although she had mocked him before, her offer to give him a bottle of it was a rare show of kindness in the cultivation world.

Suddenly, the world rumbled. A sensation of danger filled Long Chen’s heart.

The woman’s expression also changed. She looked around, terrified. The nine lakes were all trembling as a terrifying pressure descended.

Long Chen hastily stopped absorbing the water. Once he stopped, the pressure slowly faded.

“I’ve reached the limit? It won’t let me take any more?” wondered Long Chen.

He looked at the World Trees inside the primal chaos s.p.a.ce. They had grown to twenty-four thousand meters.

“How could this be? It doesn’t let others take too much?” asked the woman.

“I don’t know either. When I was taking the black water, I ran into the same thing,” said Long Chen.

“You even took the death spirit water?” exclaimed the woman.

Only now did Long Chen learn that the black water was called death spirit water.

“Didn’t you want this black water? Take out a storage device and I’ll give you some,” said Long Chen.

The white water had rained down on the primal chaos s.p.a.ce. It was quickly absorbed by the soil. Now the only bits remaining were some droplets on the leaves of the World Trees.

“Here, here!” The woman hastily gave Long Chen a translucent bottle. Looking at this bottle, Long Chen was dumbfounded. It was only the size of a fist. It was so small that he looked at her curiously.

“This bottle is made of special material. Other storage devices wouldn’t be able to bring this life spirit water out of the Netherworld,” she said helplessly.

Alright then. Long Chen took the bottles she gave him into the primal chaos s.p.a.ce. Just the droplets on a single leaf were enough to fill them completely.

He handed over a hundred bottles back to the woman. She immediately smiled brightly.

“Thank you! Although you look very fierce and not like a good person, your heart’s not bad,” thanked the woman as she gently caressed the bottles.

“If you removed the first half, I’d feel more moved,” said Long Chen speechlessly.
