Chapter 421: Obtaining the heaven mending pill, Embryonic Form of the Three Flowers

The environment on the third floor was much harsher than the first floor.

Demonic creatures were everywhere.

The Devilish Qi here was extremely corrosive; ordinary Cultivators would be contaminated if they stayed for too long.

Zhou Chen circulated the Zixia Immortal Scripture, forming a protective layer over his body.

The Devilish Qi could not get close.

He activated his Divine Sense to search for the location of Lin Tian's Opportunity.

He found it quickly.

Deep within the third floor, there was an abandoned demonic Cultivator's Immortal Cave.

Inside the Immortal Cave, there was the corpse of a demonic Cultivator.

Next to the corpse lay a Cultivation Technique.

It was precisely the Blood Fiend Demonic Technique.

Zhou Chen's figure flickered as he flew toward the Immortal Cave.

Outside the abandoned Immortal Cave.

Zhou Chen landed at the entrance of the Immortal Cave.

The entrance gate had long since rotted away, leaving only half a doorframe.

It was pitch black inside.

Zhou Chen sent his Divine Sense inside.

The Immortal Cave wasn't large, consisting of only three stone rooms.

In the innermost stone room lay a shrivelled corpse.

The corpse wore tattered black robes and bore scars from battle.

Clearly, it had been dead for a long time.

Next to the corpse lay a black Cultivation Technique Jade Slip.

It was indeed the Blood Fiend Demonic Technique.

Zhou Chen walked into the Immortal Cave.

He didn't rush to take the technique but checked the area first.

After confirming there were no traps, he put the Jade Slip into the System space.

[Congratulations Host for successfully intercepting Lin Tian's Opportunity]

[Triggered hundred-fold critical strike return]

[Congratulations Host for obtaining: Immortal Rank Top-Grade Cultivation Technique 'Chaos Demonic Scripture']

Zhou Chen's Divine Sense entered the System space to check the technique's description.

This was an extremely special Cultivation Technique.

After Cultivating it, one could devour Devilish Qi and convert it into their own spiritual power.

And it had no side effects.

“Interesting.”

Zhou Chen put away the technique.

Although he didn't Cultivate Demonic Techniques, he could keep this one.

Perhaps it would come in handy later.

He turned and left the Immortal Cave.

Just as he stepped out of the Immortal Cave, he felt an aura lock onto him.

Zhou Chen's expression darkened.

“A demonic Cultivator?”

He looked up.

Three figures descended from the sky, blocking his path.

All three wore black robes and emitted dense Devilish Qi.

The leader was a middle-aged man at the eighth layer of the Quasi-Immortal Realm.

The other two were at the sixth layer of the Quasi-Immortal Realm.

Seeing that Zhou Chen was only at the fourth layer of the Quasi-Immortal Realm, a hint of greed flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes.

“Kid, hand over your Storage Ring.”

“This seat will spare your life.”

Zhou Chen looked at him and said indifferently, “Just with you?”

The middle-aged man's face darkened.

“Seeking death.”

He raised his hand and struck a palm toward Zhou Chen.

“Demonic Fiend Palm!”

Terrifying Devilish Qi condensed into a giant palm, pressing down on Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen stood in place, not moving at all.

He activated the Immortal Emperor Sword Domain.

Buzz—

An invisible Domain instantly expanded, covering a radius of a thousand feet.

As soon as the giant palm entered the Sword Domain, it was shredded by countless Sword Qi.

The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically.

“This is… a Sword Domain?!”

His pupils shrank.

“Could it be that you are in the True Immortal Realm?!”

Zhou Chen did not answer.

He raised a finger.

A streak of Sword Qi slashed out.

Whoosh—

The middle-aged man didn't even have time to react.

The Sword Qi instantly sliced through his neck.

Pfft—

His head flew high into the air.

Blood spurted out.

The other two demonic Cultivators were scared witless.

They turned and ran.

However, it was already too late.

Zhou Chen continued to activate the Sword Domain.

Countless Sword Qi slashed out from all directions.

The two were instantly shredded into pieces.

Zhou Chen retracted the Sword Domain and walked to the three corpses.

He searched them and found three Storage Rings.

Inside were many Spirit Stones and Materials.

There were also some Merit Point Tokens.

Zhou Chen collected these items and continued flying toward the entrance of the fifth floor.

The environment on the fifth floor was even harsher than the third floor.

Black mist condensed from Devilish Qi was everywhere.

Within the black mist, figures of demonic Cultivators flashed by from time to time.

Zhou Chen activated his Divine Sense to search for the location of the Blood Lotus.

According to the opportunity panel, the Blood Lotus was in a Demonic Pool on the fifth floor.

A Demonic Pool was a pool formed by condensed Devilish Qi.

The concentration of Devilish Qi inside was extremely high.

Ordinary Cultivators could not get close at all.

Zhou Chen found the Demonic Pool.

It was a pool a hundred feet in diameter.

The pool water was as black as ink and emitted a pungent smell.

In the center of the pool, there was a blood-red lotus flower.

It was indeed the Blood Lotus.

An Immortal Rank High Grade Spirit Medicine, it could be used to refine various Medicinal Pills.

Zhou Chen was about to step forward to pluck it.

Suddenly, the pool water began to churn.

A giant Demonic Beast burst out of the pool.

It was none other than a Demonic Python.

Ten thousand feet long, its entire body was pitch black, and it emitted the aura of the ninth layer of the Quasi-Immortal Realm.

The Demonic Python stared at Zhou Chen, its eyes filled with fierce light.

“Human…”

It spoke in human tongue: “How dare you lay hands on this seat's Blood Lotus?”

“Seeking death!”

The Demonic Python opened its bloody maw and lunged at Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen remained expressionless.

He directly activated the Immortal Emperor Sword Domain.

Buzz—

An invisible wave expanded, and the Sword Domain instantly enveloped the entire Demonic Pool.

As soon as the Demonic Python entered the range of the Sword Domain, its body was sliced by countless Sword Qi.

“Roar!!!”

However, it only had time to let out a scream before the Demonic Python's body was instantly sliced in two.

Demonic blood spurted out, dyeing the entire Demonic Pool red.

Zhou Chen retracted the Sword Domain, uprooted the Blood Lotus, and put it into the System space.

[Congratulations Host for successfully intercepting Lin Tian's Opportunity]

[Triggered hundred-fold critical strike return]

[Congratulations Host for obtaining: One hundred stalks of Chaos Blood Lotus, an Immortal Rank Top-Grade Spirit Medicine]

I've struck it rich this time.

The Chaos Blood Lotus is priceless and can be used to refine various Immortal Rank Top-Grade Medicinal Pills.

Zhou Chen nodded with satisfaction.

Thanks to the Divine Concealment Art, Zhou Chen didn't delay for long and reached the seventh floor of the Abyss Battlefield.

The Devilish Qi was so thick it had almost solidified.

The air was permeated with the scent of death.

Zhou Chen activated his Divine Sense to search for the specific location of the heaven mending pill.

According to the opportunity panel, the heaven mending pill was in a hidden Immortal Cave on the seventh floor.

The Immortal Cave was hidden by a Formation, making it extremely difficult to find.

Zhou Chen spent half a day and finally found the entrance to the Immortal Cave.

It was a crack hidden in the mountain wall.

The outside of the crack was covered with Formations.

Zhou Chen activated the Space Law and used brute force to break the Formations.

Half an hour later.

Buzz—

The Formations dissipated.

The crack was revealed.

Zhou Chen walked into the crack.

Inside was a narrow passage.

At the end of the passage was a stone room.

In the center of the stone room sat a jade box.

The jade box emitted a faint glow.

Zhou Chen walked up to the jade box and quickly opened the lid.

Inside lay a Medicinal Pill emitting a seven-colored glow.

It was indeed the heaven mending pill.

An Immortal Rank Top-Grade Medicinal Pill, it could mend the deficiencies in a Cultivator's Foundation.

Zhou Chen put the Medicinal Pill into the System space.

[Congratulations Host for successfully intercepting Lin Tian's Opportunity]

[Triggered ten-thousand-fold critical strike return]

[Congratulations Host for obtaining: Ten thousand Immortal Rank Top-Grade heaven mending pills]

Zhou Chen was stunned, thinking he had misheard.

Holy crap?

Ten thousand?

This…

He took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart.

Ten thousand heaven mending pills.

This was an astronomical figure.

Even experts in the Immortal King Realm would be envious.

It meant the ability to mass-produce ten thousand True Immortal Realm experts; no matter which power it was, this was a terrifying number.

If this were exposed, Zhou Chen would probably end up as a corpse in the wilderness the next day, buried in the ground like ginseng.

“Fortune, fortune is coming.”
