“If you can come up with a book of practice skills that exceeds the Holy Meteorite Sutra, I certainly can accept it with pleasure.”

Zhang Ruochen strolled over there with ease.

Blackie, of course, could not get any rare book of exercises better than the Holy Meteorite Sutra and he would no longer continue to talk about taking Zhang Ruochen as a disciple. He said coldly, “You’ve come to me, is something wrong?”

Zhang Ruochen nodded and said directly, “I would like to ask you something about the ‘Yin Yang Wooden Graph’.”

As expected, Blackie left with Zhang Ruochen, and only Guoguo and the monster ape remained in the courtyard, perceiving the practice skills that they just obtained.

Entering the room, Zhang Ruochen activated an array inscription and then a white light screen emerged that covered the room immediately.

What he would talk about with Blackie was very important to him. Of course, he had to be careful to keep from being heard.

Zhang Ruochen asked, “You should already know that the Yin Yang Wooden Graph has absorbed a lot of the Qi of Origin of the Wood Spirit. I just want to know why. Why does the Shenkun Shenmu figure absorb the Qi of Origin of the Wood Spirit?”

Blackie turned his eyes and slowly said, “Do you really want to know the answer? Hey! It’s no harm to tell you. Did you see the Sacred Prime Tree on the scroll?”

“Of course I saw it!”

Blackie said, “The Sacred Prime Tree will grow in the inner world of the scroll.”

“How could that be?” Zhang Ruochen did not believe it.

Blackie sternly said, “I was painted on the scroll, and my true body was sealed in the inner world of the scroll. The Sacred Prime Tree was also drawn on the scroll, why can’t it grow in its inner world?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “In the legend, the Sacred Prime Tree was cut off by a murderer in the Medieval Ancient Times.”

“Yes.”

Blackie nodded and said again, “However, Saint Monk Xumi dug up the roots of the Sacred Prime Tree and then transplanted them into the inner world of the scroll. With his great power, the roots of the tree were revived. After millions of years, the roots of the tree grew and new seedlings emerged. It has become a towering tree.

“Of course, the new seedling can’t be compared with the former Sacred Prime Tree. It should be noted that the former one was born in the Archean Era, and it is the oldest living creature in Kunlun’s Field.”

Zhang Ruochen discovered that something was wrong—he always felt that Blackie’s words were far from the truth. Then he asked, “Are you sure that the Sacred Prime Tree has really grown for a million years? Couldn’t Saint Monk Xumi be someone from 100,000 years ago?”

Blackie opened both eyes wide and said, “Do you think I’m bragging again? Zhang Ruochen, I’m telling you that since we’ve known each other, I’ve never bragged about anything.

“The truth is that the inner world of the Yin Yang Wooden Graph was originally a space-time treasure that was designed by Saint Monk Xumi to allow the Sacred Prime Tree to recover its vitality as soon as possible. Therefore, as one day passes in the external world, 10 pass in the inner world of the Yin Yang Wooden Graph. So with 100,000 years in the external world, the inner world has naturally had a million years.”

Zhang Ruochen came to realize and he said, “I see.”

Blackie continued, “However, the inner world of the Yin Yang Wooden Graph is not stable enough. Only some Martial Souls and beast souls can be placed in it. A person who enters it will only be at a dead end.

“Only by waiting for the new seedling of the Sacred Prime Tree to grow to a certain degree can it become the root of the world, so that the world will be completely stabilized and turned into a Fascinating World.

“Then you can open up the picture world of the Yin Yang Wooden Graph and enter into it and practice.”

Zhang Ruochen asked, “To what extent does the Sacred Prime Tree grow to support the Fascinating World in the inner world of the Yin Yang Wooden Graph?”

Blackie said, “In the Five Elements Primitive World, the Sacred Prime Tree absorbed a large amount of Qi of Origin of the Wood Spirit, recovered some of the vitality, and grew a lot. If it can absorb 10 times the Qi of Origin of the Wood Spirit in the Five Elements Primitive World, then the Sacred Prime Tree should be able to prop up that Fascinating World.

“Of course, if the Sacred Prime Tree is allowed to grow independently and is given another million years, it can hold up that world.”

“A million years? I can’t wait that long.”

Zhang Ruochen slightly frowned and said, “It’s not too difficult to have 30 times more of the Qi of Origin of the Wood Spirit in the Five Elements Primitive World. As long as I can find an Inferior Primitive World with strong Qi of Origin of the Wood Spirit and absorb it, then it’s estimated that it will be accomplished.”

Zhang Ruchen did not consider collecting the Qi of Origin in the Medium Level of the Primitive World at all because he was aware that there were many superiors and masters as numerous as clouds. He could not handle that now.

Moreover, once the Qi of Origin in the Primitive World felt the hostility of Zhang Ruochen, it would imperceptibly change the rules of the world and allow the superiors in the world to stop Zhang Ruochen and kill him, thus protecting itself.

Of course, those superiors did not know that they were driven by the Qi of Origin. To them, it would seem like a coincidence that they would be able to kill Zhang Ruochen.

In fact, the Qi of Origin was actually the world’s heavenly way and destiny. It could only invisibly change people and things in the world, and could not directly give orders.

Blackie asked, “When are you going to leave?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “Wait a few days! It will be safer in the Battlefield of the Primitive Word if my cultivation is improved. And I still have some things unfinished.”

“Good! You continue to deal with your affairs, and I will continue to teach the two guys, trying to cultivate them. In the future, they should be able to help me.”

Blackie flew out and turned into a dark shadow and then disappeared in the room.

“His strength has really improved, it’s not lower than mine,” said Zhang Ruochen as he stared at Blackie.

Blackie’s power had always been there, but it had been sealed in the Yin Yang Wooden Graph and could not be put to good use.

Zhang Ruochen had already identified himself with the Yin Yang Wooden Graph by blood. As long as his cultivation improved, he would be able to unlock more seals. Blackie’s strength would also increase.

Therefore, Blackie’s strength was almost the same as Zhang Ruochen’s.

Zhang Ruochen took out the Purple Cloud-patterned Eaglewood and had a look. And then he entered into the internal space of the Time and Space Spinel.

He was ready to absorb the Purple Cloud-patterned Eaglewood and practice the Treasured Body of the Wood Spirit.

Among the five elements, water and wood were the same nature.

Since he practiced the Treasured Body of the Water Spirit and the second treasured body, it would certainly be easier to choose the Treasured Body of the Wood Spirit.

When Zhang Ruochen began refining the Purple Cloud-patterned Eaglewood, a distinguished guest came to the Sword Sanctum in East Region Saint City.

This person from the Central Region was a divine ancestor in Ming Hall, flying on auspicious clouds and arriving there.

She was in full palace costume, with a graceful figure, a very beautiful face, and long eyebrows. Her red lips like cinnabar and delicate skin like water made it seem like she was a fairy.

It was a pity that such a beautiful and young fairy had long gray hair.

Her pair of beautiful eyes seemed to be full of vicissitudes and infinite wisdom, as if she had gone through countless joys and sorrows in life.

The owner of the Sword Sanctum, Jade Saint, came out to meet her in person and was very respectful to her, as if she was her junior.
