Chapter 2489 - Bidding Farewell to Everyone
Moreover, with the artifact spirit’s assistance, his control over the Watercloud Hall would be countless times easier than without an artifact spirit.
With a flash, Jian Chen vanished from the Martial Soul Mountain and arrived inside the Watercloud Hall.
As a medium quality god artifact, the Watercloud Hall was extremely large inside. It was like a miniature world.
However, Jian Chen did not care about this. What truly piqued his interest were the cultivation resources and the various treasures the Gloomwater sect had accumulated over the years.
He was now the master of the Watercloud Hall, so he could control a portion of its power. With a thought, he arrived before the treasury in the Watercloud Hall.
The door to the treasury was forged from impressive God Tier materials. At the same time, there were formations engraved on it, making it extremely tough. Even Chaotic Primes would not be able to open it up easily.
“Open!” Jian Chen called out, and with a heavy rumble, the door opened slowly.
Jian Chen entered the treasury eagerly. When he saw the items inside, he could not help but smile.
As a peak sect, the Gloomwater sect obviously possessed a great assortment of resources. There were countless pills, heavenly resources, and other divine items inside the treasury. Additionally, there were piles of supreme grade divine crystals that stood like mountains. They probably numbered in the hundreds of millions.
“There’s actually a million colored divine crystals as well!” When Jian Chen saw the pile of divine crystals that shone with colorful light, his eyes immediately lit up.
Although there were a lot of supreme grade divine crystals, they were only useful to Godkings. Basically all Primordial realm experts used colored divine crystals to cultivate.
At the same time, colored divine crystals were a form of currency worth far more than supreme grade divine crystals.
“It’s just a pity that most of these colored divine crystals are one-colored. There are very few two, three, and four-colored divine crystals, and even fewer five-colored divine crystals.” Jian Chen felt a slight sense of pity. If the pile of a million colored divine crystals were converted to five-colored divine crystals, there would probably only be a hundred thousand of them.
“Master, this is hell water. The Gloomwater sect can only collect a single droplet every million years. Twelve droplets remain right now,” the artifact spirit’s voice rang out. The space before Jian Chen pulsed, and twelve pure-white bottle appeared before Jian Chen.
Jian Chen revealed a sliver of desire in his eyes as he looked at the hell water. He had heard about their effects. They were a heavenly resource greatly beneficial to the soul and were even enough to interest Grand Primes.
“Only half my soul remains, and who knows what the effects in the future will be. I hope this hell water can repair my soul,” thought Jian Chen. He took a bottle of hell water and left the Watercloud Hall, planning on ingesting it on the Martial Soul Mountain.
Even though he had become the master of the Watercloud Hall, he still felt that he was safer on the Martial Soul Mountain. After all, he had tormented the artifact spirit of the Watercloud Hall for many years. It would be impossible to ensure that the artifact spirit did not hold grudges towards him. If he suddenly interrupted Jian Chen’s cultivation, the consequences would be unthinkable.
Jian Chen opened the jade bottle and studied it carefully. After confirming there was nothing wrong with the hell water, he downed the droplet.
The hell water dissolved as soon as it reached his mouth, turning into a ball of white mist that drifted towards Jian Chen’s soul.
Immediately, Jian Chen felt his mind shudder. An extremely pleasant feeling appeared in the depths of his soul, making him feel like he was walking on clouds.
At the same time, Jian Chen could clearly sense his soul become even more consolidated from the presence of the hell water.
If his soul had been a gas before, it had begun to condense into a liquid after consuming the hell water.
This was a change in quality, an evolution to a higher level.
Right now, Jian Chen felt like his soul was being reborn, experiencing an extremely great increase.
The effects of the hell water did not just end there. It also contained pure fragments of laws, without any particular orientation. They could assist different people in comprehending different laws.
The effect was just like when Jian Chen had ingested some Comprehension Tea, except the hell water was clearly on a much higher level than the Comprehension Tea he drank in the past.
“There aren’t a lot of fragments of laws in the hell water. If I use them to comprehend the Laws of the Sword, I probably wouldn’t make a breakthrough even if there were a hundred times the amount. It looks like I can only use them to comprehend the Laws of the Hallowed.” Jian Chen immediately concentrated on cultivation, borrowing the fragments in the hell water to comprehend the Laws of the Hallowed.
His cultivation this time lasted for half a month. When he opened his eyes, undisguised joy appeared.
“A single droplet of hell water has elevated my comprehension from early Overgod to mid Overgod. It has saved me several dozen years of cultivation and strengthened my soul,” thought Jian Chen. Although a single droplet of hell water had not been enough to repair his damaged soul, he was very satisfied by the benefits.
Afterwards, Jian Chen ingested another droplet of hell water and only roused after cultivating for half a month.
However, the effects this time disappointed him slightly. The droplet of hell water only allowed his soul to grow by around ten percent, while his Laws of the Hallowed remained at mid Overgod.
“The stronger I become, the weaker the effects of the hell water. When my Martial Soul Force was at early Overgod, I only needed a single droplet to reach mid Overgod, but I need at least three droplets to get to late Overgod.”
“If this continues, I’ll need nine droplets at the very least to reach early Godking from late Overgod. Nine droplets might not even be enough.” Jian Chen felt that it was a pity. Hell water was indeed something good, but there was just too little of it. It was impossible for him to obtain a large quantity of it.
He glanced at the remaining ten droplets of hell water and did not consume anymore. He stowed them away with a wave of his hand before visiting Hun Zang and the others. He began to bid farewell to them.
“Eighth junior, you’re leaving the Martial Soul Mountain?”
The seven other successors were all surprised when they heard that Jian Chen was about to leave.
“My clan is on the Cloud Plane, while my wife’s on the Skyfire Plane. I’ve already spent many years away from them, so I miss them very much. As a result, I must go,” said Jian Chen.
“If that’s the case, we won’t be urging you to stay. Eighth junior, be careful outside. Once you encounter an opponent you can’t defeat, you must call us immediately,” said Hun Zang.
Jian Chen nodded before planning on giving a droplet of hell water to every single one of them.
“Hell water isn’t very useful on me. It’s best if you keep it for yourself, eighth junior. You need it more.” Hun Zang and the others declined his offer.
In the end, only Qing Shan took a droplet of hell water, and Jian Chen put away the six other droplets he offered.
Nine droplets of hell water remained from the original twelve now.
