257 A Thousand Year Old Secre (2/2)

”The so-called Void Dimension Vine was a plant grew on the Void Dimension Crystals. The Void Dimension Crystals contained the energy of dimensions and most dimension altering dharma artifacts were made out of such crystals. I wager that the seed of a gourd rooted in one of those crystals and absorbed the energy in the crystal. Eventually, it bore a fruit that was called the Void Dimension Fruit.” As Chen Fan explained to Yuan Hen, memories started to come back to his mind.

”In other words, this was not a Blade Strengthening Gourd, it was a natural Dimension Altering Dharma Treasure.”

”Dimension Altering Dharma Treasure?”

Yuan Hen was confused and understood very little of what Chen Fan had said.

Chen Fan didn't continue to waste time explaining it to Yuan Hen. He was pleasantly surprised by the discovery. Ever since he was reborn, he was troubled by the lack of useful Dimension Altering Dharma Treasure such as Meru Ring, Storage Bracelet and Qian Kun Bag. Without such Dimension Altering Dharma Treasures, it was extremely inconvenient for Chen Fan to carry all the Spirit Pills, bank cards, cell phone, keys, and the Bone Whip of Malicious Yin.

Only a cultivator who had reached beyond the Connate Spirit level could have successfully refined a Dimension Altering Dharma Treasure. It also required Void Dimension Crystals which were difficult to come by. The Void Dimension Crystals only form near a Dimensional Strom. In order to get in and out of a Dimensional Strom unharmed would require at least the level of Golden Core. It would take Chen Fan at least ten years to reach that level of attainment.

To his surprise, he stumbled upon a Dimension Altering Dharma Treasure in Hong Kong.

”The main difference between Dharma Artifacts and Dharma Treasures were their potential for growth. A Dharma Treasure might be less powerful in the beginning, but its power would grow with the user. Many Dharma Treasures of the Dao Reunion level cultivators had been with them ever since they entered Qi Refinement stage. Over time, they were as powerful as divine powers.”

This yellow-skinned gourd's power might be insignificant in the beginning, but as Chen Fan leveled up, it would become increasingly more powerful and space inside the gourd would increase as well. In the end, it would be as big as the Cang Min Realm created by the Immortal cultivator Cangqin.

”There were many miraculous usages of this Dimension Altering Dharma Treasure, it was such a shame that Sword Secret the Exalted Cultivator used it to store his sword. If anything, he should have at least used it to store spirit medicine.” Chen Fan smirked.

Without using special arts to preserve Spirit Pills, they would lose their effectiveness over time. Therefore, it was nearly impossible to find any spirit pills that were over a thousand years old. However, spirit pills could be stored inside of Dimension Altering Dharma Treasure practically forever.

In addition, these Dimension Altering Dharma Treasures could also be used to raise Spirit Beasts as pets, or storing Dharma Spells or Divine powers, etc.

Chen Fan had seen one mighty figure in the immortal cultivation world who had preserved a hundred thousand years worth of energy from the sun in a Dimension Altering Dharma Treasure. In the end, the mighty figure unleashed the stored power at once and destroyed an entire galaxy. It had so much potential, yet it was used to store a flying sword. What a waste!

”I will have to refine it first.”

Chen Fan channeled his true essence into the yellow-skinned gourd. Chen Fan noticed that there was no signature of other cultivators that they always placed on the surface of the Dharma Treasure after they refined it. Therefore, Chen Fan wagered that Sword Secret the Exalted Cultivator didn't even know how to refine a Dharma Treasure.

As Chen Fan's true essence slowly branded the gourd, he felt a connection start to build up between him and the gourd.

From now on, this gourd would forever belong to him. No matter how far they were apart, he could sense its presence with ease. After this gourd was further refined, Chen Fan should be able to summon the gourd with a wave of a hand.

After he had branded the gourd, Chen Fan charged up his energy and started to probe the inside of the gourd.

The space inside the Gourd was small; about three square meters in size, equivalent to that of a small SUV. It could at best fit a few men.

There were also a few random items and books strewn around in the space. All of these items looked ancient. Chen Fan wagered that these items used to belong to Sword Secret the Exalted Cultivator. After he left the mortal world, his successors must have failed to crack open the gourd and therefore, were unable to retrieve these items.

”I can go through these things later. Despite the small space inside, it is perfect for me. As I gain more power, its space will expand.” With that thought in mind, Chen Fan decided to test it. He charged up his energy and made a Buddhism Statue on the coffee table disappear for a fraction of a second.

”What is that?”

Yuan Hen and the others rounded their eyes in surprise. They had seen the Buddhism statue disappear and reappear in front of them but failed to understand how that had happened.

”It indeed is a Dimension Altering Dharma Treasure!”

Chen Fan nodded in satisfaction. From now on, he would no longer need to carry so many items with him. All he needed was just a little gourd.

”Since I have obtained the Blade Strengthening Gourd, I wager I can finally do away with you.” Chen Fan turned around and looked to Yuan Hen. Yuan Hen had been scheming to kill him, and therefore, he would not allow Yuan Hen to live.

Yuan Hen panicked, and he kowtowed to Chen Fan to plead for his life. Chen Fan didn't even spare a glance at him. He flicked a finger and shot out a golden flame at Yuan Hen. Yuan Hen's body caught fire and was reduced to nothing in a blink.

Yuan Hen disappeared from the room before everyone's eyes, it was as if he had never been here.

After he had killed Yuna Hen, Chen Fan looked to the terrified Zheng Anpin.

”You said you are from the Zheng family of Hong Kong, do you happen to know Zheng Anqi?”

”Bring me to her.”
