Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension - Chapter 754: 447: Sumeru Ring_2

Chapter 754: Chapter 447: Sumeru Ring_2

Deep within the cave mansion, Zhao Sheng stepped into a spacious cultivation stone chamber and sat down on the Spirit Crystal Mat in the center.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A clump of Golden Crow True Fire and a mass of pure cyan spirit flame were successively flung by him into the upper sky.

The next moment, with a flick of his sleeve, a Red Fire Banner and a nine-story Black Tower shot out, falling respectively into the Golden Crow True Fire and the World-purifying Burning Flames, floating up and down within them.

Then, Zhao Sheng’s brow suddenly emitted two strands of Divine Thought, each connecting to the Heaven and Earth True Fire.

As the Divine Thought propelled them, the True Fire immediately surged up, beginning to slowly sacrificially refine the two Ancient Treasures.

Having done that, Zhao Sheng pulled out an apricot-yellow ring from his bosom, carefully holding it in his hand to fiddle with.

This ring was very strange, as it could not be stored inside the Storage Space Seal or Storage Bag.

Whenever he tried to place the ring inside them, Zhao Sheng would faintly sense an extremely weak space-time fluctuation, and a natural repulsion would arise between the ring and the Storage Space Seal.

From this, Zhao Sheng deduced that the apricot-yellow ring was also a space-type Magic Artifact similar to a Storage Bag.

However, what puzzled him was… when he tried to refine it, his mana turned out to be ineffective against it!

Moreover, when his Divine Thought probed into the interior of the ring, it became extremely bizarrely… lost!

Divine Thought could get lost?

Before this, Zhao Sheng didn’t believe it.

Until he broke into an immense and boundless “maze” shrouded in Chaos.

The chaotic “maze” inside the ring eerily resembled the space faults spoken of in legends.

The space faults in the maze were vast as the stars, too numerous to estimate.

As soon as Zhao Sheng’s Divine Thought invaded it, he would quickly become dizzy and disoriented, then attracted by a particular space fault, plunging headlong into it, and abruptly losing connection.

Lately, he had tried nearly a thousand times, but all of his released Divine Thoughts went without returning.

With numerous failures, his Divine Thought frequently suffered injuries, and even his Divine Soul sustained some damage.

However, the more he was injured, the greater Zhao Sheng’s interest in the ring grew.

Since the artifact was strikingly similar to the legendary Sumeru Ring.

Both were space-type Magic Artifacts. The Sumeru Ring was countless grades above Storage Bags and Storage Space Seals.

According to legends, the Sumeru Ring could contain an entire Grotto Heaven within a mustard seed, which was quite similar to the Sea Shell he had obtained in his fifth life.

But the Sea Shell was merely a hundred yards in size, barely comparable to the most inferior Sumeru Rings.

Based on some information passed back to Tianzhu Realm from generation to generation of Ascending True Monarchs, the top-tier Sumeru Rings in legend could hold an entire Constant Sand “world”.

Zhao Sheng never imagined this apricot-yellow ring to be the top-tier Sumeru Ring, but as long as it isn’t the lowest grade, he would have been more than satisfied.

He remembered in his previous life, when he first entered the Seven Star Spirit Realm, he had encountered a bald strange man who called himself a Half-Immortal of the Void.

Without any accidents, this ring should be an item that belonged to that bald stranger.

The moment Zhao Sheng thought that a Half-Immortal of the Void’s entire fortune might be hidden inside the ring, his motivation surged.

Even with a wounded Divine Soul, he had to painstakingly find the true entrance to the Sumeru Space.

His Divine Thought broke into the spatial maze time after time, only to quickly become lost, severing the connection each time.

As time went by, Zhao Sheng’s complexion gradually turned pale, veins popping on his forehead.

Ugh!

After a muffled grunt, the Three Suns Intense Fire Banner suddenly passed through the Golden Crow True Fire, falling straight to the ground, with the Crystal Jade Flagpole silently piercing the hard stone surface.

The next moment, the rocks within a yard’s radius around abruptly softened and turned red, melting into a pool of fiery red magma in the blink of an eye, with the Red Fire Banner floating on top, emitting a faint red light.

Zhao Sheng’s gaze sharpened, and with his Divine Thought following his gaze to connect once again with the Ancient Treasures, the Three Suns Intense Fire Banner lightly lifted off the ground and flew towards him.

With a swing of his robe, his sleeve suddenly created an immense suction, instantly drawing the Ancient Treasure into the depths of his sleeve.

At this time, the Jiuyuan Tower also flashed free from the burning Brahma Flames and rushed back, likewise taken into the depths of his sleeve.

Immediately afterwards, a platinoid rainbow soared to the top of the stone chamber, and the Thousand Flame Tripod appeared, floating steadily in the Upper Sky, slowly rotating and emitting a majestic pressure.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the next instant, the Golden Crow True Fire and World-purifying Vedic Flame suddenly transformed into two clumps of light flames, vanishing into the Thousand Flame Tripod, disappearing from view.

Accompanied by a wave of Divine Thought, the Thousand Flame Tripod emitted a humming sound, casting circles of light flames while rotating, filling the entire room with Dazzling flames that intertwined extreme cold with searing heat.

Zhao Sheng slipped the apricot-yellow ring onto his thumb and then took off a Storage Space Seal from his waist, throwing it with a flick of his hand. Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures appeared out of thin air, then were held aloft by rings of light, beginning to be refined by the Spirit Fire.

Next, he took out two pill bottles, dispensing a red and a green High-grade Treasure Pill each.

The red one was a Fourth-rank Lotus Divine Pill, which could be used to heal damage to the Divine Soul and was extraordinarily effective.

The green one, known as the Primordial Spirit Pill, was refined using a Nascent Soul-grade Demon Core as the main ingredient, an excellent item for increasing mana.

Yet faced with two such rare High-grade Treasure Pills, Zhao Sheng did not hesitate and swallowed them both immediately.

A flash of light, two Top-grade Spirit Stones containing strands of Outer Heaven Mysterious Essence respectively landed in Zhao Sheng’s hands.

Closing his eyes to meditate, his Dantian surged, his mana rolling like waves!

In the blink of an eye, lotus-shaped Divine Lights rose from his Bai Hui acupoint, fluttering and dancing, casting down soft and pure light that merged into every limb and bone.

Simultaneously, a six-winged, two-headed giant beast’s phantom suddenly manifested from the void behind him, then quickly plunged into the Nascent Soul Domain that unfolded on its own, struggling for a moment before dissolving into nothingness.
