Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

In the center of the Starry Sea lies a small island, not very large, only about ten miles in circumference.

At first glance, the island seems unremarkable, except that the flowers, plants and trees on the island are particularly lush, and some of them can even be called spiritual plants.

Beneath the island lies a blessed land.

According to the surveys conducted by feng shui masters and formation masters, they believe that this place is the center of the entire Starry Sea, where all the spiritual energy of the Starry Sea converges.

If that's all there is to it, then this place is just a bit rich in spiritual energy.

The reason this place has the opportunity to receive the sea spirit's baptism is because deep in the seabed beneath the island, there is a trench with thirty trees in it, called the Abyss Trees.

The Abyss Tree is not aggressive; its most distinctive feature is that it can absorb spiritual energy without limit.

Cultivating under a tree can not only rapidly improve one's cultivation level, but also strengthen the physical body to a certain extent and increase the chances of sudden enlightenment.

Of course, you can't come anytime, nor can you just sit under the tree and stay there. This is based on the observations and discoveries of our predecessors.

If you come too often, the effect will be worse; if you come too infrequently, the spiritual energy absorbed by the Abyss Tree will be lost for no reason.

The most suitable time is about once every five hundred years, and each time it lasts for an hour.

This way, the spiritual power of the Abyss Tree can be absorbed to the maximum extent without being overdrawn.

When the existence of the Abyss Tree was first discovered, the forces of the Starry Sea fought fiercely for decades to seize this opportunity.

Seeing that continuing the fight would not benefit anyone, they had no choice but to sit down and discuss a reasonable way to distribute the spoils, which continues to this day.

Upon arriving at the target island, the short, elderly man at the head of the group took out a bead, and after a few incantations, a circular protective shield appeared in front of him.

"Come in, everyone. The place where the Sea Spirit is baptized is in the deep sea, and you need this water-repelling pearl to get down there."

After everyone entered the protective barrier, the short old man waved his hand, and the barrier fell into the sea, sinking continuously.

The Starry Sea has many deep-sea areas, where the pressure is extremely high. Xu Luo and the others could barely withstand it by maintaining their true essence shields with all their might. However, the deep sea is not only filled with immense pressure, but also with many other unknown dangers.

Even the forces that have lived here for tens of thousands of years dare not say that they fully understand this mysterious sea.

As they continued to descend, the surroundings became pitch black, without a single ray of light, and even the range that their divine sense could probe was greatly reduced.

This kind of environment makes people feel very unsafe. If Xu Chu were here, he would have run away immediately.

They descended for about half an hour before their speed gradually decreased.

"Huh? There seems to be a light down there?" someone exclaimed.

The short old man nodded.

"It'll be there soon."

The light was placed there to illuminate and guide the way. Following the faint light, they came to a relatively narrow trench.

This trench is only about a hundred feet wide, but it is more than ten miles long and several hundred feet deep.

The entire trench was shrouded in arrays and restrictions; without a jade talisman to activate the corresponding restriction, one could not descend.

The short old man opened the barrier, and after entering the trench, they soon saw rows of abyssal trees.

The trunk of the abyss tree is very thick, and its branches look like coral at first glance. They are colorful. Although the abyss tree has no leaves, it produces crystal-clear stones that are as dazzling as gemstones.

At the entrance to the trench, there is a stone tablet. The short old man said, "Many formations have been set up here. You can find a Sea Abyss Tree, sit cross-legged under the tree, and receive baptism."

"The entire baptism will last for two hours. After two hours, everyone will return here. We will only wait for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. We will not wait for those who are late."

Xu Luo took the lead, leading Xu Chen and the other two away from the protective barrier. He then erected a shield around himself to isolate himself from the seawater and swam towards the depths of the trench.

The trench is protected by an array, so they don't need to worry about the pressure of the deep sea or various dangers, and can focus on improving their cultivation.

Xu Luo and the other three flew all the way to the other side of the trench, and he transmitted his voice.

"You should start your cultivation as soon as possible, we have other things to do later."

Xu Luo brought them to the Starry Sea not for the Sea Spirit Baptism, but for the hidden treasures there.

This treasure was discovered during the Sea Spirit Baptism in its previous life. Xu Luo's goal was to find the treasure and take it away without anyone noticing.

Xu Chen and the other two nodded.

Each of them found a Sea Abyss Tree and began cultivating.

Xu Luo, Xu Chen, and Xu Qiufeng are all at the ninth level of the Dharma Aspect Realm, and are only a little short of the Integration Realm. Even if they weren't here, they would break through to the Integration Realm in no time.

Now, sitting under this Sea Abyss Tree, they broke through one after another in no time, including Qu Wubing, who was at the seventh level of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

The effects of the Abyss Tree are still ongoing, after all, it has been accumulated over five hundred years.

It wasn't just those four; everyone else was the same.

As time went on, their cultivation levels continued to improve.

"boom!!"

Xu Luo broke through to the second level of the Integration Realm. He didn't stop, and then began to consolidate his realm.

Xu Chen and Qu Wubing both broke through to the second level of the Integration Realm, while Qu Wubing broke through to the ninth level of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

Qu Wubing was not the chosen one after all, and compared to the others, he was ultimately a little lacking.

Currently, Qu Wubing can still avoid falling too far behind due to the power of his Battle Immortal bloodline, but as his cultivation level increases, the gap between them will widen.

However, Qu Wubing's improvement speed and strength were only slightly inferior to theirs. Compared to 99% of the geniuses, he was still powerful, after all, his Battle Immortal bloodline was comparable to a top-level holy body.

After breaking through their limits, the four individuals consolidated their cultivation levels and began to improve their respective martial arts techniques.

Meanwhile, Xu Qingzhou, who had already arrived at the Starry Sea, also broke through to the second level of the Great Saint Realm because of their breakthroughs, along with those of Xu Muge and Xu Ying.

With only half an hour left, Xu Luo ended his seclusion, and Xu Chen and the other two also got up one after another.

Xu Luo pointed to the end of the trench and said, "There is a restriction here. After I open it, you guard this place. If anyone gets close, try to stop them. If you really can't stop them, then go in together."

"If everything goes well, I'll be out in a bit, and no one will notice. Then we can leave normally."

"If I don't come out of here, you can leave first, and I'll figure out how to get out on my own later."

Xu Chen and the other two nodded without saying a word.
