Chapter 283 The Inadequacy of the Seed of Ruomu (Part 2)

If the seed of Ruomu enters the body.

Chang Le, standing to the side, could only look on in surprise and disbelief.

As a spirit of an artifact, he cannot be compared to a true cultivator.

Many distant memories and knowledge had long since disappeared from his understanding.

For example, some of the techniques passed down by the Azure Emperor Lingwei Yang in those days, and some secret treasures left behind by chance.

Chang Le would never hesitate to share these things with the Little Sage.

He really couldn't remember the knowledge.

So when Su Che's vital energy was drained by the Ruomu seed, he was both shocked and furious. His first instinct was to summon the all-consuming Great Sun Qian Yuan True Fire to incinerate the Ruomu seed that resembled the gate of hungry ghosts.

But things changed too quickly; in the blink of an eye, Su Che was drained of his life force and turned into an old man with nothing left to live on.

At that time, Chang Le felt extremely guilty.

He failed to fulfill his mission and take good care of the heir to the Qingdi Baoyuan.

Not only have I failed the old sage Lingwei Yang who opened this treasure, but I have also let down the sages of all ages, including the Lion-Lotus-Perfected Tathagata.

However, in the next instant, the Ruomu seed seemed to have a conscience and actually fed back even purer innate primordial energy to the little saint.

This truly delighted Chang Le.

If he weren't just a spirit of an artifact, lacking in spiritual understanding, he would probably be laughing, crying, jumping, and shouting to express his emotions.

Su Che let out a long sigh and slowly opened his eyes.

Zhongyuan.

Su Che thought of the person who gave him this gift and didn't know what to say for a moment.

It was only a moment, but it felt like one or two months to Su Che.

This moment also made Su Che understand and comprehend some things.

Like the Ruomu tree, a spiritual root of heaven and earth, it is not only a real spiritual tree and treasure, but also a manifestation of the various laws and rules between heaven and earth.

If you leave a seed of a tree there, even when it is just about to sprout, it will only be a seed the size of a fist.

But what it truly contains is life and death, reincarnation, the netherworld and the myriad phenomena of the universe.

Or to put it more broadly, the most precious treasures in the world are manifestations of certain laws and rules, and should never be regarded as ordinary treasures.

Moving something like this is not as simple as moving an ordinary magical artifact.

There must be rituals and procedures, and every detail must conform to the corresponding laws and regulations.

It can be said that every application falls within the scope of "the struggle between heaven and man".

If one were an immortal being, with a deeper understanding and enlightenment of the laws governing the universe, one's mastery of this thing might be even greater.

That way, perhaps I could master the Ruomu seed through my own enlightenment. Unfortunately, I'm just a nobody who hasn't even refined the Elixir of Immortality.

Therefore, we must follow their rituals.

In other words, follow the rules.

Before you know it, you've become the sacrifice.

By offering its own essence as a sacrifice, it achieves a balance with the various laws encompassed by Ruomu.

It sounds mysterious, but doing it is extremely risky and dangerous.

What if Ruomu doesn't approve? What if there's a problem with their own rituals?
A single step can mean a difference of ten thousand years.

Fortunately, he had to rely on Zhongyuan for protection, or rather, he had to thank the Azure Emperor Lingwei Yang, whose fate was unknown. Indeed, Su Che gained the approval of the Ruomu Seed when his vital energy was gradually being drained away.

I don't know if this can be considered some kind of ill-fated relationship.

While Su Che was unconsciously regarding himself as a sacrifice to Ruomu, someone else had done the same thing countless years ago.

The awe-inspiring power of the Azure Emperor is revered.

Countless years ago, the Azure Emperor Ling Weiyang also obtained a seed of Ruomu. At that time, he regarded himself as a sacrifice, offering his most fundamental innate energy before this spiritual root of heaven and earth, and finally gained the recognition of that Ruomu.

Countless years later, this Ruomu seed may have some inexplicable connection to the one Ling Weiyang planted back then. Perhaps it is a descendant or relative of that original seed, or perhaps all the Ruomu trees in the world were originally one.

When Su Che inadvertently turned himself into a sacrifice, the long-dormant Ruomu seed and Su Che quickly sensed the presence that seemed to be spiritually powerful.

The Six Harmonies Azure Dragon is the most direct imprint.

Thus, the Ruomu seed came to accept Su Che.

Just as Ling Weiyang was back then, so is Su Che now.

The Ruomu seed sprouted and eventually resonated with Su Che's soul. The two were in perfect harmony, and the Ruomu seed happily went into Su Che's body to live and work in peace, with no further distinction between them.

Perhaps in its view, only within Su Che's body could the intimate relationship between the two be explained.

As for the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden, even though it is filled with the essence of Yi Wood, it is not of any interest to it.

Of course, after entering the body, the newly sprouted Ruomu repaired the various hidden injuries on Su Che's body, and incidentally scared the restless military spirits and evil spirits in the body half to death.

However, all of this seemed to have exhausted the strength of the Ruomu seed. After completing all of this, it fell into a deep sleep within Su Che's body, but the branch was still bright, and a lively vitality was constantly emerging from Su Che's body.

what is this?
Although they faced a near-death experience, everything was under Zhongyuan's control.
Su Che gazed wistfully at the sky above.

When Zhongyuan entrusted this Ruomu seed to him, did he already foresee this day would come?

They talk about rewards, but in reality, they're just prepared tools.

If it weren't for the spirit of Wei Yang paving the way countless years ago and gaining Ruomu's approval, the destiny of the Six Harmonies Azure Dragon would not be enough to become the key to unlocking Ruomu.

Without him, wouldn't Zhongyuan have to expend his own energy to gain Ruomu's approval? Or would he have to find a longevity immortal like Beimang Ghost Ancestor to go through all that trouble?
Zhongyuan's planning and layout were truly grand, and he was unwilling to waste even a single bit of manpower.

"Is the young sage alright?"

Chang Le's earnest call roused Su Che from his reverie.

"Oh, a blessing in disguise."

Su Che smiled slightly.

"These grains... well, I'll leave the spirit herbs to you to keep a close eye on."

"Don't worry, little sage, these spiritual herbs are the easiest to grow that I have ever seen."

"Remember to collect all the seeds."

"Doesn't the young sage have time to take a look at that Huang Kou? He says he has made some progress in his swordsmanship practice and would like you to give him your feedback."

"Several major events have occurred here, and I can't attend to them right now. Let him focus on repairing the damaged divine barriers first. Once I bring in a few more people to repair them together, these problems should be resolved."

Su Che gave a few more instructions and then left the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden.

The situation with the Prince of Wuling is still unclear, and I don't have the energy to comfort Huang Kou, who's just a tool.

According to the armored giant, he, who had been refined by blood, had always been under the influence of the Rakshasa Sea's senses. It was likely that the people of the Rakshasa Sea would soon find their way to this area.

The best course of action is to relocate as soon as possible.
