Chapter 763: Chapter 451: Catch and Release, Release and Catch, Do You Think This Is a Game?

The Five-Colored Ice Lotus is an extremely rare Ice Attribute Spiritual Medicine, and its petals can be used in refining a Spirit Pill called the Five Senses Heart Cleansing Pill. Even for Divinity Transformation True Monarchs, it is greatly beneficial, yet this kind of Spiritual Medicine had long become extinct in both the Ghost God and Nether Night realms.

However, Zhao Sheng had stumbled upon one here as if it were a common find.

Zhao Sheng’s gaze swept across the surroundings, and to his astonishment, found that within dozens of miles, there were seven or eight of these rare Spiritual Medicines, which were nearly extinct in the two realms—all growing well and ancient in age.

“What place is this? Could it be that I have unwittingly traversed to the Spiritual Realm?” A thought involuntarily rose in Zhao Sheng’s heart.

Apart from the Spiritual Realm, he could not think of any other place that might be such a Spiritual Mountain Blessed Land.

Upon rethinking, Zhao Sheng felt that this idea was absurd. He shook his head and waved, casting a beam of Mystic Light to gently wrap around the Five-Colored Ice Lotus.

Suddenly,

A green flash shot out of the underbrush, a streak of aqua rainbow light burst forth like a flying arrow, aimed straight for Zhao Sheng’s brow.

In the rainbow light was a small snake about a foot long, emerald green in color, with a pair of transparent ice wings behind its neck. Its fangs shone with a blue light, evidently containing a potent poison.

“Sky Cold Viper…” Zhao Sheng’s eyes flashed as he flicked his finger,

And a golden Sword Light more than a meter long flew out, slashing the Sky Cold Viper into seven or eight pieces in the blink of an eye. The fragmented snake corpse fell to the ground, with the head struggling for a while before finally becoming still.

Although the Spiritual Energy in this spiritual realm was extremely abundant, and despite the profusion of Spiritual Medicines and exquisite plants, Exotic Beasts guarding the Spiritual Medicines also emerged endlessly.

The Sky Cold Viper he had just killed had emitted an aura that faintly rivaled that of a Golden Core Realm demon beast.

However, unlike demon beasts of the same rank in the outside world which possessed keen spiritual wisdom, this Sky Cold Viper only had a powerful body; its spiritual wisdom was extremely low, almost no different from an ordinary wild beast.

“Tsk tsk, this place is truly bizarre; I need to be even more cautious in the future.” Zhao Sheng pocketed the Five-Colored Ice Lotus and the winged snakehead and refrained from collecting more Spiritual Medicines.

On a normal day, he would have definitely searched the area thoroughly.

But right now, finding himself in an unknown and mysterious land, Zhao Sheng had no interest in doing so, his priority was to figure out the situation of the place.

“Let’s sort through this. At first, it was the Seven Star Spirit Realm moving through space-time, but it mistakenly moved to the most dangerous and mysterious Mixed Hole Realm, followed by a Space-Time Storm…” Zhao Sheng looked around vacantly, muttering to himself: “…Upon waking, I found myself atop a Dark Gold Giant Pillar, its surface covered with keratinized scales, scales that were extremely tough, shielded by strange golden light, impenetrable by any damage… No, could it be… part of some unimaginable creature’s…”

At the thought of this possibility, Zhao Sheng was suddenly filled with dread.

Standing above the Dark Gold Giant Pillar earlier on, it was as if his spiritual sense had been shielded, never even considering such a possibility before.

Now, it felt as though he had just awakened from a dream, with myriad thoughts flitting through his mind, one bizarre notion after another emerging in rapid succession.

“I had flown over that pillar for a long time, the distance altogether far surpassing a million miles… If it really is a creature, then… how exceptionally vast and limitless must its body be… And then there’s that curtain of light that stretched from heaven to earth that I saw at last… Could it perhaps be a world barrier? That’s right, those pieces of Outer Heaven Mysterious Essence that were collected actually began breaking their seals on their own, then got absorbed by the light curtain, followed by the pull… falling… losing consciousness… and finally ending up in this unknown land that seems like a spiritual realm…”

“Moreover… where did the Nine Nether Tower go? Nine Nether… Tower! Could it be…?”

At this moment, Zhao Sheng thought of an almost impossible possibility, his expression subtly changing as his eyes blazed with Divine Light, scanning the surroundings.

Apart from the lush, thriving underbrush and numerous Spiritual Medicines, there was nothing out of the ordinary, the massive vortex he had previously seen had vanished without a trace.

“This world feels incredibly real, definitely not some Illusion Realm, it should also belong to a Cave Heaven Blessed Land type of place… After all, the Nine Nether Tower is merely an Ancient Treasure, it couldn’t possibly possess such miraculous Power! Perhaps the Nine Nether Tower is merely a catalyst, or maybe a key? Similar to the Seven Star Ruyi.” Zhao Sheng guessed as such in his heart. Seeing nothing abnormal around him, he immediately soared into the air, identified a chain of rising and falling mountains ahead, and with a flash of golden light, his entire being suddenly transformed into a streak of light, racing towards the peaks.

…

After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, with the vast grasslands left behind him, the land gradually rose into rolling mountains ahead.

Just at that moment, a heaven-shattering roar suddenly erupted from a towering peak two hundred miles away, the roar surprisingly filled with elation.

Zhao Sheng’s heart tightened, and he immediately halted his tunneling light, hovering mid-air.

Looking over, he saw a Golden Giant Ape with a body as robust as a mountain leap down from the summit, golden clouds blossoming under its feet to catch the giant ape, before it rushed towards his location.

This Golden Giant Ape, treading on lucky clouds, had its eyebrows sharply raised, nostrils facing the sky, and a pair of golden eyes large as bells, their gaze fiery as if they could melt steel. The creature exuded a mighty aura like an overwhelming sea.

At a glance, the brazen and wild, Fighting Heaven and Earth temperament of the Golden Giant Ape spread across the sky in an instant, sweeping toward him.

Even from a hundred miles away, Zhao Sheng felt his spirit waver and his body tremble slightly, and a sense of fear arose, as if stemming from the depths of his bloodline, an instinctive shudder.

It was as if he was facing a creature of sacred bloodline, with a natural status far above the Human Clan, akin to a miraculous Life being.
