Chapter 534: Divine Eyes Spirit Fountain (1/2)
“What?” Jian Xiaotian was immediately taken aback. “I say, Brother Chen. Are you joking right now? If it is so easy to snatch, this spiritual fountain would no longer be here by now. The various cultivators would have snatched it away long ago.”
“Ha ha! I am just saying.” Chen Feng laughed. Next, he brought out the Brief Introduction to the Sects book and went through it, reading up on Overwave City.
“This Overwave City is truly not to be trifled with. It is actually under the stewardship of two Human Immortals. Add the fact that they are backed by Skypond Faction, it is no wonder no cultivators would dare cause trouble here. Except for the other nine great sects, the act of causing trouble here is simply the equivalent of committing suicide for cultivators,” Chen Feng slowly said.
“I’ll head out tomorrow and see if there is any way we can trade something for the Divine Eyes Spirit Fountain water.” Jian Xiaotian nodded.
The next day, early in the morning, Jian Xiaotian headed out and did not return until evening. He hurriedly ran back.
“You got something?” Chen Feng asked smilingly.
“Ha ha, that’s right! I managed to get a total of four droplets,” Jian Xiaotian said, bringing out a small jade bottle. Inside the bottle were some fountain water. They seemed very pure.
“So, this is the Divine Eyes Spirit Fountain water.” Chen Feng accepted the bottle and inspected it, a curious look on his face.
“Brother Chen, do not look down on this fountain water. Do you know? In order to get this, I had to waste an entire day. Without spending a bit of spirit stones to bribe some Skypond Faction disciples, I would have been incapable of even getting in line for this.”
“Oh, is that so? How many spirit stones did you use to get these four droplets?”
“Like I said, spirit stones alone cannot buy them. I traded four 2,000-year-old spiritual herbs for them.”
“What?” Chen Feng was shocked and he jumped to his feet.
“No way, is this thing really so precious?” For cultivators, spiritual herbs that were over 1,000 years old were highly potent supplements. Taking them would increase their abilities. One 2,000-year-old spiritual herb for one droplet? Chen Feng’s expectations for the fountain water in his hand rose.
“Let’s see if it is truly effective. Hopefully, this is not a scam,” Chen Feng said, flicking a finger. Next, two droplets of the fountain water flew out to land on his palm, where it slowly seeped into the palm.
“No way! If this is a scam, there wouldn’t be so many cultivators coming over to get it.” Jian Xiaotian then tossed the remaining two droplets into his mouth.
“Hopefully, it is effective.”
“Oh, not good!” Jian Xiaotian’s eyes lit up and he swiftly sat down to begin cultivating.
After absorbing the two droplets of fountain water, Chen Feng felt a cooling energy budding within his body. Next, the cooling energy began roaming through his various meridians. Although the cooling energy felt icy to the extreme, it did not contain even a strand of frost energy. Finally, the cooling energy split into two. One portion flowed into Chen Feng’s sea of wisdom while the other portion moved towards his eyes.
A highly cooling sensation gathered upon Chen Feng’s head. Although the energy felt somewhat tranquil, Chen Feng dared not be careless. He swiftly mobilized his body’s energy to refine the cooling energy.
After just one hour, Chen Feng opened his eyes. His vision was clear and he could see much better than before. Additionally, his Soulflame had also grown stronger.
“So, there is something to it. However, this is too little. If we can get ten plus jin of these waters, I will be able to practice an eye technique.” Chen Feng shook his head.
“Ten plus jin! Overwave City doesn’t even sell that much in one month.” Jian Xiaotian had already opened his eyes.
“Naturally. Considering how good these waters are, Skypond Faction must be keeping most of it for themselves.”
“However, the fountain waters are really good. Looks like I will need to think of something.” Chen Feng fell into a contemplative state. Chen Feng’s interest in the spiritual fountain had grown. Exchanging one 2,000-year-old spiritual herb for one droplet? No matter how many spiritual herbs Chen Feng may possess, he would not do that.
“Brother Chen, are you seriously thinking about snatching it?” Looking at Chen Feng’s face, Jian Xiaotian knew what he was thinking.
“Why not? When Nine Firmaments Palace issued the wanted declaration, the cultivators from Skypond Faction chose to take action as well. This action of mine is not excessive,” Chen Feng replied with a smirk.
“You are just making excuses here. If our whereabouts are ever exposed, practically every cultivator within the Northern Plains would attack us,” Jian Xiaotian said, laughing.
After another ten days, Chen Feng finally managed to gain a breakthrough.
“Huh! I finally managed to fuse four sea of wisdom layers. I have been cooped up for so long, it is time I go out for a walk.” As Chen Feng had not been cultivating for long, it was only natural for him to have a youthful disposition. Entering cultivation retreat within such a prosperous city for so long was enough to make him feel restless.
“The trading zone here is quite big. No wonder there are so many cultivators.” After coming out, the two of them headed straight towards the largest trading centres within Overwave City.
“Heh! Who knows if there are any good items here?” Jian Xiaotian said smilingly.
