Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Saintess's Perception, Heart of Life (First Update) Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Saintess's Perception, Heart of Life (First Update) “Sect Leader, what's wrong?”
Hu Feifei noticed Ye Feng's expression and asked curiously.
“I've discovered a treasure!” Ye Feng said breathlessly, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
“A treasure? Is it edible?” Hu Feifei's eyes lit up.
Slap!
Ye Feng slapped Hu Feifei's shoulder and said irritably, “All you think about is eating! It's one of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables' secret techniques, stored on the Undying Star. Come, let's go take a look.”
“Oh!” Hu Feifei pouted.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The two of them tore through the void, heading to their destination.
The diameter of the Undying Star was less than fifty thousand miles, and its total surface area was smaller than that of any Five-Star Empire in Shenzhou, making it a very small place.
But, this star was special.
Its heavy gravity was one aspect.
More importantly, the nearby space and crust were very stable. Flying speeds were very slow, and even spatial jumps couldn't precisely pinpoint a destination on the surface of the Undying Star.
“The Undying Star was also created by the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables.”
“There must be other treasures on it, not just the billion undying, indestructible Ancient Heroic Spirits.”
“I had thought of this before.”
“But before Wen Yue and Wen Xue transcended their tribulations, I couldn't sense the aura of other treasures.”
“Not until now.”
“I've actually sensed the aura of a Heavenly Venerable secret technique!”
Ye Feng explained to Hu Feifei as they flew.
Hu Feifei, with a look of surprise, asked, “Sect Leader, is it similar to the Leaping Step and Eye of Decryption, those kind of Heavenly Venerable-level secret techniques?”
“Yes, that's right,” Ye Feng nodded.
Such techniques surpassed any secret technique created by those at the Supreme Saint Realm and were the most powerful Divine Skills known. In Ye Feng's words, they reached the level of “Dao,” infinite in power.
Their value was immeasurable!
To obtain them was to gain a fortune.
“Wow, I want to learn too!” Hu Feifei licked her lips and carefully sensed her surroundings. A strange expression suddenly appeared on her face as she pointed in a certain direction, “Sect Leader, do you see it?”
At that moment, Ye Feng was flying aimlessly.
For the possibly hidden Heavenly Venerable-level secret technique on the Undying Star, he had always been unable to locate it. No matter where he flew to on the Undying Star, he could never find a more precise location.
It felt like entering a labyrinth.
Hearing Hu Feifei's words, Ye Feng shook his head. “I can't find it.”
“Even you can't find it, Sect Leader? But I think I've discovered something,” Hu Feifei muttered, pointing in the direction ahead.
Following her direction, Ye Feng looked and saw, thousands of miles ahead, a mysterious plateau covered in Other Shore Flowers.
“Is it there?” Ye Feng wondered.
Hu Feifei scratched her head and closed her eyes to sense. She always felt that this plateau was connected to her Bloodline.
Swoosh!
Hu Feifei suddenly soared into the sky, climbing to ten thousand miles above.
Ye Feng quickly followed her.
Once they arrived, the surface of the Undying Star was filled with various powerful winds that could tear even those at the Saint Realm apart. Without Chu Tianhe's Sword-shaped Token, it was difficult to enter.
“Look down, isn't it beautiful?”
Hu Feifei opened her eyes and pointed at the plateau.
Looking down, Ye Feng saw the sea of Other Shore Flowers arranged in a heart shape.
Whoosh!
A strong wind blew.
The entire sea of Other Shore Flowers pulsated rhythmically, and from afar, the heart-shaped pattern looked like a beating heart.
Thump! Thump!
Ye Feng felt his own heartbeat change rhythm, and a flood of information entered his mind, making him realize the truth. His pupils dilated with excitement and he exclaimed,
“We've found it!”
“Apparently, after a striking thunderstorm, one can see the heart-shaped pattern made up of the Other Shore Flower Sea only for a brief moment.”
“And that is the chart of the Heavenly Venerable secret technique!”
Ye Feng sat cross-legged in the high sky, fully engaged his Heart of Wisdom, and casually brewed a cup of Seven-Colored Enlightenment Tea, briefly increasing his comprehension tenfold.
“Heart of Life!”
Moments later, Ye Feng had a revelation.
The Heavenly Venerable Secret Art was called “Heart of Life.” After understanding it, one's heart could get incredibly strong, continuously generating a tremendous amount of Life Force, nearly achieving immortality.
Of course, that was not the most important point.
After practicing the “Heart of Life,” reaching the Perfect Stage could extend one's lifespan by tenfold!
This point alone was enough to drive everyone crazy.
“It's too unbelievable,” Ye Feng muttered, utterly astonished.
A Heavenly Emperor at the peak of the Void Break Realm had a lifespan of ten thousand years, but if he cultivated the “Heart of Life” to perfection, his lifespan could exceed a hundred thousand years.
Even just making some progress would extend his life by ten thousand years.
It could be said that this secret technique was highly attractive.
For many people, strong power was less appealing than a prolonged lifespan; as long as one lived long enough and put in sufficient effort, many of one's deficiencies could be compensated for, reaching higher and further.
A gust of wind blew.
The Other Shore Flower Sea pulsated rhythmically.
Wisps of the essence of the path rose into the sky, absorbed by Ye Feng, who then saw many ancient runes from the patterns formed by the Other Shore Flowers, wracking his brains to deduce them, and gradually reaping benefits.
“'Heart of Life' scripture, upper volume!”
Ye Feng kept deducing and obtained the first part of the scripture, delighted beyond measure, and gained more related information.
The “Heart of Life” contained four volumes.
Upper volume, middle volume, lower volume, and secret volume.
Understanding the upper volume, lifespan increases to twice the original.
Understanding the middle volume, lifespan increases to four times the original.
Understanding the lower volume, lifespan increases to eight times the original.
Understanding the secret volume allows one to combine the first three volumes, breaking through the limit, and boosting the lifespan to ten times the original!
Additionally, one could also obtain the origin of life.
Just a wisp could save lives.
“Now, I have the complete version of the upper volume.”
Ye Feng opened his eyes, his pupils briefly flashing with golden scripture, as vigorous life force started to surge within him.
Hu Feifei stood nearby, having gained nothing.
Her perception was not weak, but compared to Ye Feng, it was far too inferior to meet the minimum requirement for enlightenment.
For others without the supreme perception of a Spirit Venerable, it would be quite challenging to gain insight into the scripture of “Heart of Life” from the Other Shore Flower Sea.
Of course, if one obtained the existing scripture, the difficulty of cultivation would drastically decrease, and as long as one had decent aptitude, some enlightenment could be achieved.
“How boring!”
Hu Feifei, holding the Hunyuan Staff, looked at the ground, feeling a familiar aura.
Whoosh!
She followed her senses and descended towards the ground.
After about half the time it took to drink a cup of tea.
Hu Feifei arrived at the center of the flower sea, a hundred miles away from the cabin, where she saw an ancient stone tablet, only the size of a palm.
One wouldn't notice it without close inspection.
Seeing the stone tablet, Hu Feifei felt an even stronger sense of familiarity.
“Open for me!”
She took out the Hunyuan Staff and bombarded the soil near the stone tablet fiercely. After a while, she dug out a pit three meters in diameter and two meters deep.
At that moment, a square wooden box emerged.
“Found it!”
Hu Feifei pried open the wooden box to find it contained a fist-sized lump of clay, similar to mutton fat jade, covered in various ancient runes, emitting an aura not of this era.
“It's Wuxu Jade Mud!”
Hu Feifei picked up the clay, shaped like mutton fat jade, and realized it was the same material that composed her body–Wuxu Jade Mud, blessed by the mysterious Ancient Saint, famed for being eternally indestructible.
“It's actually the original material of my body!”
Hu Feifei was quite surprised.
She picked up the box and filled the pit, holding the lump of Wuxu Jade Mud, sitting alone on the ground, looking up at the sky.
She pondered a question.
Who created her?
Why did Wuxu Jade Mud appear on the Undying Star?
Hu Feifei felt that the Undying Star was becoming more and more intriguing.
