Chapter 100 The Companion Spiritual Treasure of the Great Luo Heaven

Then he saw a tender sprout break through the seed coat and peek out. The life essence that burst forth at that moment was incredibly strong. Luo Heng's whole body glowed, and he had a feeling of floating away.

A moment later, the tender shoots had grown to about an inch tall, emerald green and fresh, with a shimmering glow.

It was such a tiny bit, yet the gushing ocean of life was unfathomably deep and ridiculously vast. Luo Heng couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement—this elixir of immortality was truly beyond the comprehension of ordinary logic.

Once the Bodhi sapling had taken root, Luo Heng didn't hesitate. He took out a drop of the Great Emperor Wushi's essence blood, dissolved it with the divine spring, and poured it all over the roots of the sapling.

In just a few breaths, the entire tree shot upwards as if it had gone mad.

It shot up to a height of sixteen feet before finally stopping.

Luo Heng looked up at the Bodhi tree in front of him, his eyes filled with amazement.

The entire tree was a vibrant green, like a piece of naturally carved jade. When the green leaves swayed, they rustled, and each leaf drooped down with wisps of ethereal energy.

He admired it for a while before strolling forward.

He sat cross-legged under the Bodhi tree, which immediately activated the Heavenly Heart Seal of the Great Luo Heaven.

In the next instant, he seemed to fall into a deeper state of enlightenment.

Just moments ago, I found "Buddha's Kingdom in the Palm of My Hand" to be profound and mysterious, but now, unfolding before my eyes, it is like a plain language, with all the key points, changes, and mysteries clearly understood.

He sat there under the Bodhi tree for three days and three nights.

On the morning of the fourth day, Luo Heng silently opened his eyes.

He stood up and took seven steps in each of the four directions: east, south, west, and north. With each step, a golden lotus bloomed beneath his feet.

After stopping, he raised one hand to the sky and pointed the other to the earth, and shouted: "In heaven and on earth, I alone am supreme; all the three realms suffer, and I shall bring them peace."

After he finished speaking, he stood quietly in place.

The wind rustled through the leaves of the linden tree.

—No one applauded.

Luo Heng stood there for a while, but couldn't hold back any longer, and reluctantly lowered his hand.

Well, being cool for only three seconds is normal.

He casually picked out a few of the Heavenly Emperor's relics, preparing to leave the Great Luo Heaven. Before leaving, he glanced at them casually, but suddenly stopped in his tracks.

His expression changed, and he took a step forward, appearing in the chaos at the edge of the small world.

He activated his world-wide access and focused his gaze on that chaotic expanse—

There, a small section of the sword tip floated silently.

There was no blade, no hilt, only a thumb-length, multicolored, fragmented tip.

Luo Heng paused for a moment, then subconsciously connected the Heavenly Heart Mark to deduce its origin.

A moment later, he stopped with a strange expression.

"Good heavens—I actually have a companion spirit treasure?"

Despite his complaints, his eyes grew brighter and brighter.

This sword tip is a primordial artifact that was naturally created by the Great Luo Heaven. In the prehistoric world, it would definitely be considered a primordial spiritual treasure.

Originally, the Great Luo Heaven did not have this function, but didn't it swallow that stone saint spirit before? The rules of the Saint Spirit lineage for nurturing companions were absorbed and digested by the Great Luo Heaven, and from then on, the Great Luo Heaven also learned this ability.

However, due to insufficient materials, the process was extremely slow, and Luo Heng had not noticed it until now.

Until recently, he also refined the Five-Colored Heavenly Blade of the Heavenly Emperor's Son into a Daoist technique that returned to the Great Luo Heaven. However, since immortal gold materials were not rare in the Great Luo Heaven, he simply followed the Holy Spirit's instincts and slowly nurtured it into the prototype of this Five-Colored Heavenly Sword.

As for why it's a sword—duh, that holy spirit was originally meant to give birth to a sword.

The Great Luo Heaven devoured his Dao principles, and without any external interference, the first accompanying spiritual treasure naturally became a sword.

Luo Heng stared at the tip of the sword, liking it more and more the more he looked at it.

He recalled that the Desolate Heavenly Emperor Shi Hao possessed both the Thunder Pool, an artifact for proving one's Dao, and the Emperor Sword, an artifact for protecting one's Dao.

He already possessed the Great Luo Heaven, the instrument for proving his Dao, and was only missing a protective instrument for it.

But then he thought again, and realized that he didn't seem to be very comfortable using a sword.

After all, his greatest advantage was the Immortal Realm Repair Scripture written by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor. For a protective artifact to draw upon the power of the scripture, it must be able to withstand the power of the world.

So here's the question: what kind of cold weapon can be used for close combat and also contain a small world within it?

"Swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks—"

He began to silently plan in his mind.

"How about we use a hammer?"

Luo Heng wasn't just saying this out of anger—he genuinely couldn't think of any other weapons.

A picture flashed through my mind: I was holding a five-colored immortal golden hammer, with an entire world inside the hammerhead, and one blow would cause the sky to collapse and the earth to shatter.

—That seems pretty exciting?

But then I thought about it—my muscular body, wielding a giant sledgehammer—

Luo Heng quickly shook his head.

No, being strong is temporary, but being handsome is for a lifetime.

He began to ponder deeply again.

As I was thinking, my eyes suddenly lit up.

"Got it—"

As the saying goes, "Heaven and earth were dark and yellow, the universe was vast and boundless"—he could easily forge a primordial banner for himself!

Luo Heng's ideas quickly unfolded: cast a long spear with five-colored immortal gold, and hang a large flag on the spear shaft, with Shi Hao's Immortal Realm Mending Heaven Scripture inscribed on the flag.

This way, it can be used as both a battle flag and a spear.

In terms of style, besides the longsword, the spear is the coolest.

Then another question arises: what material should the flag be made of?

Luo Heng's gaze swept across the room and landed on a corner where a huge five-colored divine phoenix lay quietly.

That's one way to do it too.

First, use the Emperor's son's skin to make a flag. Then, if you kill his father but not the Emperor, use his father's skin to make an upgraded version.

Although using an enemy's weapon to forge a spear shaft and then inserting the enemy's skin as a flag does sound a bit like hell.

But there was no other way; we simply didn't have any better materials on hand.

Just as Luo Heng was about to make a move, he suddenly slapped his forehead.

"Holy crap, how could I have forgotten about this?"

He didn't care about anything else and rushed out of Da Luo Tian, ​​heading straight for Ye Fan's courtyard.

Ye Fan was sitting cross-legged in meditation when the door was suddenly flung open with a bang, and Luo Heng rushed in anxiously.

Ye Fan looked at him blankly: "————What happened?"

Luo Heng's anxious expression froze instantly, and his expression became somewhat subtle.

He coughed lightly, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said in a low voice, "Um—Old Ye, didn't you say you'd give me some Xuanhuang Mother Qi Essence? I've been thinking about it, and I still think I really need it. You see—"

Ye Fan was stunned for a moment, then looked speechless: "Fine, I thought something was wrong with you. It's just the essence of the Primordial Chaos Qi. Of course, it's best if you want it. Otherwise, I feel like I'm taking too much advantage of you."

Luo Heng felt relieved and, without saying a word, pulled Ye Fan into the Great Luo Heaven.

As soon as Ye Fan entered the Great Luo Heaven, he was stunned.

The spiritual energy here is incredibly dense, making you feel like you're immersed in a sea of ​​energy. With every breath you take, you feel your divine power surging upwards.

He stared dumbfounded at the small world before him, which resembled a fairyland, and after a long pause, he managed to stammer, "Wait—Old Luo, where did you get yourself here?"
