Chapter 3153: A Land of Yin and Yang
Jian Chen and Shangguan Mu’er gradually approached the lake, becoming more and more careful.
“Jian Chen, with the dragon turtle’s death, do you think a new Grand Prime Xuanhuang beast will occupy the dragon turtle’s territory?” Shangguan Mu’er could not help but worry.
Jian Chen directly answered her. “Any place occupied by a powerful Xuanhuang beast must have precious heavenly resources. The most valuable part of the lake where the dragon turtle lived was the heavenly resources on its back. Now that all of the heavenly resources have ended up in our hands, it shouldn’t attract any Xuanhuang beasts that are too powerful.”
“Although there’s still the lake formed from Xuanhuang spiritual fluid, I have a feeling that Xuanhuang beasts aren’t drawn to Xuanhuang spiritual fluid like they are to even a single mid grade God Tier heavenly resource. The dragon turtle only stayed there because it liked the environment.” Jian Chen analysed seriously.
On top of that, with their advance, they obtained a few more God Tier heavenly resources along the way.
Originally, powerful Xuanhuang beasts guarded these heavenly resources, but they had all vanished, so Jian Chen collected these heavenly resources with ease.
“The owners of these places have probably all gone to the dragon turtle’s territory. It’s been several days since the dragon turtle’s death, so they should have returned a long time ago, having gained nothing.” Jian Chen’s eyes flickered with uncertainty. Reaching so far in, even he became cautious.
An hour later, Jian Chen and Shangguan Mu’er finally arrived beside the lake with their presences completely erased, but when they saw what was happening on the small island in the centre of the lake, their eyes both narrowed.
The small island was already in ruins. Over a dozen Chaotic Prime Xuanhuang beasts gorged themselves on the dragon turtle’s flesh on the small island.
As for the dragon turtle’s head, it had vanished a long time ago. All that remained were a few colossal footprints nearby.
As they fed off the flesh, many of the Xuanhuang beasts gave off a yellow haze. Clearly, the dragon turtle’s flesh was highly nutritious to them.
“Don’t disturb them!” Jian Chen instructed Shangguan Mu’er carefully before immediately collecting the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid.
Jian Chen could finally collect the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid in peace, without worrying about any disturbances, as the Chaotic Prime Xuanhuang beasts all scrambled to eat the dragon turtle’s flesh. Even when they sensed their dens had been robbed, even when they sensed the heavenly resources with their presences had appeared by the lake, they no longer cared.
It was as if the dragon turtle’s flesh was more important than anything else!
On the shore, Jian Chen took out a gourd and rapidly collected the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid. The gourd hovered in the air as the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid below turned into a water spout, surging into the gourd.
The water level in the lake immediately began to fall at a visible rate.
The gourd was only the size of a fist, but it seemed to contain an entire world inside. It showed no signs of filling up.
With the decrease of the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid and the falling water level, the dragon turtle’s body was gradually exposed.
However, its body that was hidden beneath the fluid was riddled with holes. It was in such a horrible shape that it was horrendous to look at.
There were also over a dozen Xuanhuang beasts tearing away at the dragon turtle’s remains beneath the water, seizing every minute and competing against one another.
It was as if the only thing that existed in their eyes was the dragon turtle’s flesh. Even when they sensed the decrease in Xuanhuang spiritual fluid, even when they detected Jian Chen and Shangguan Mu’er standing on the shore, none of them paid any attention to them.
As a result, the entire process of collecting the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid was surprisingly smooth.
Before long, Jian Chen had collected over two-thirds of the entire lake of Xuanhuang spiritual fluid. It was possible to make out the bottom of the lake now.
“The remaining Xuanhuang spiritual fluid has already been contaminated. There are far too impurities, so it’s fine even if I just leave it here.” Jian Chen finally stopped. He collected the gourd with a wave of his hand and could not help but smile in satisfaction when he sensed the tremendous amount of Xuanhuang spiritual fluid inside.
“I have more than enough Xuanhuang spiritual fluid now. I don’t have to worry about the ten droplets of Grand Exalt essence blood anymore. All that remains is the Sovereign Fruit of the Dragon God.”
Afterwards, Jian Chen continued to search through the Xuanhuang Microcosm with Shangguan Mu’er. This place was basically littered with treasures. It was possible to find many varieties that were rare or even extinct in the Saints’ World here.
As a result, Jian Chen obviously did not forget about the other God Tier heavenly resources he encountered as he searched for the Sovereign Fruit of the Dragon God.
Every single God Tier heavenly resource required a fierce struggle. They all required quite a clash to take it from the possession of the powerful Xuanhuang beasts.
Afterwards, Jian Chen simply used the same method as before. He would keep the Xuanhuang beast that guarded the heavenly resource busy, luring it into the distance gradually through battle, while Shangguan Mu’er would go up and collect the heavenly resource.
If they were pursued by Xuanhuang beasts, Jian Chen would use the same trick again, luring them to the territory of a stronger Xuanhuang beast before hiding himself.
Most of the Xuanhuang beasts he faced were of the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Heavenly Layers of Chaotic Prime. Against these Xuanhuang beasts, he could only keep them busy.
It was no problem for him to stay alive, but he could not kill them.
Along the way, under their combined efforts, Jian Chen and Shangguan Mu’er had quite a bountiful harvest. They obtained all sorts of heavenly resources and precious fluids.
They even encountered several pools of Xuanhuang spiritual fluid.
However, there was not even a shadow of the Sovereign Fruit of the Dragon God to be seen.
“Don’t tell me the Sovereign Fruit of the Dragon God can only be obtained from the very depths?” Jian Chen could not help but wonder, except the very depths were still a forbidden ground that he could not set foot in right now.
Basically all the Xuanhuang beasts there had reached Grand Prime.
It was unlike the region that he was currently in, where it was mostly Chaotic Prime Xuanhuang beasts with a Grand Prime Xuanhuang beast or two appearing with an extremely low probability.
Suddenly, Jian Chen’s field of vision opened up. He had passed through the forest, arriving before open wilderness.
The flat land before him was deathly still, without any vegetation or signs of life. There were not even the traces of Xuanhuang beasts.
It felt like a zone of death.
Jian Chen only glanced past the open land before his eyes became fixated in the distance. He gradually became stern.
At the end of his field of view, he could vaguely make out a tremendous mountain range.
The mountain range was split into two colours, black and white. Surging Yang Qi radiated from the white part.
Chilling Supreme Yin Qi radiated from the black part.
“This is a land of Yin and Yang!” Jian Chen gazed into the distance and became solemn.
Not only could he sense Yin and Yang Qi from the mountain range in the distance, but he could also sense the tremendous presence that belonged to Xuanhuang beasts.
The presence was truly ground-shaking. It was boundless, far surpassing the dragon turtle.
