Chapter 487: Yin-Yang Burial God Domain, Reincarnation Lotus!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Everyone was shocked by how easily Shen Tian destroyed the killing formation.
But soon after, their attention was gathered on that nine-petal lotus.
The nine-petal lotus was dark red and shrouded in dazzling divine light. The petals swayed with the breeze, looking like blades that could easily slash the fabrics of space.
A dark red glow descended, its aura mighty and profound, exuding a powerful Sage energy.
After careful analysis, one could detect an extremely sharp killing desire held within. It was spine-chilling.
This lotus didn’t feel like just a simple herb—it was more like an invincible killer weapon!
Zhuge Sima’s eyes narrowed. “This is…”
He went forward to sense the killing intent of the formation. It was identical to the aura exuded by the lotus.
Could he have been struck back by a herb?
What kind of herb is this? To possess such terrifying killing intent?
As if he had read Zhuge Sima’s thoughts, Shen Tian smiled and explained. “This is a supreme-grade Sage herb, the Sky Heart Nine-Petal Lotus!”
He had learned the Lotus Thearch’s Hundred Herb Sutra, which recorded all sorts of wondrous herbs across the five regions.
Amongst them was the Sky Heart Nine-Petal Lotus.
This herb was different from other Sage herbs. It was born from killing formations and had absorbed the killing energy of those formations.
The Sky Heart Nine-Petal Lotus was very beneficial to cultivators who specialized in formations. Not only would it greatly increase their cultivation level, but it could enhance the cultivator’s understanding of formations.
The cultivator could refine the killing energy to strengthen the power of their formation to set up a powerful killing formation.
This kind of special Sage herb was priceless. To a cultivator who specialized in formations, its value was akin to that of a Sage artifact.
And in certain ways, its value was even higher.
After all, a Sage artifact was only an external supplement. But this Sage herb could strengthen the cultivator himself.
The two ancestors looked shocked and envious as Shen Tian collected the treasure.
They were feeling rather woeful.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was indeed the Son of Providence.
Not only did he manage to destroy that terrifying killing formation, but he was able to collect such a wonderful treasure.
So envious!
…
But no one expected Shen Tian to hand over the Sky Heart Nine-Petal Lotus to Zhuge Sima after collecting it.
“This Sky Heart Nine-Petal Lotus is useless to me, so I am giving it to Brother Zhuge!”
Zhuge Sima was taken aback, his face filled with shock.
This was a supreme-grade Sage herb. Even a sacred leader would value it.
Why is Brother Shen giving this to me!?
After snapping out of his trance, he hurriedly rejected. “This is Big Brother Shen’s fortuitous opportunity. How can you give it to me?”
Although the Sky Heart Nine-Petal Lotus was very useful to Zhuge Sima and could greatly enhance his power, he felt embarrassed accepting it.
After all, Shen Tian was the one who had destroyed the killing formation and collected the Sky Heart Nine-Petal Lotus.
Zhuge Sima wanted to accept this Sage herb, but he just couldn’t.
Shen Tian smiled. “We were destined to meet each other. Take this gift as a symbol of our new friendship!”
Zhuge Sima was shocked. He looked conflicted. “But… this is too valuable! I really cannot accept it. Big Brother Shen, please don’t make things difficult for me!”
Shen Tian replied calmly, “This herb is not useful to me.
“Given your talent, you can enhance your formation skills if you consume this herb. You are an adult man, don’t be so wishy-washy like a little girl.”
This Sage herb was indeed very useful to Zhuge Sima, but it was rather useless for Shen Tian. After all, he did not specialize in formation techniques.
Anyway, this was originally Zhuge Sima’s fortuitous opportunity.
In the original fortuitous opportunity, Zhuge Sima would manage to collect the Sky Heart Nine-Petal Lotus with the help of his two ancestors.
Now, Shen Tian was just returning the item to its intended owner.
Not only would he earn brownie points this way, but he could also improve his own providence. It would be like killing two birds with one stone.
Zhuge Sima finally stopped refusing upon hearing that. He looked very grateful.
“Thank you, Big Brother Shen. In the future, feel free to ask me if you need me for anything. I will be there even if I have to run through fire and swim across boiling waters!”
Shen Tian said calmly, “No need to stand on ceremony. In the future, if you ever meet any of my Divine Firmament disciples, please take care of them.”
“Understood!”
Zhuge Sima accepted the Sky Heart Nine-Petal Lotus, his face full of joy.
This grade of Sage herb was just too precious. Even to great wealthy clans like the Zhuge and Sima, it would be considered an heirloom-level treasure.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was indeed the legendary Son of Providence. He was very generous!
The moment the lotus flower landed in his hand, Zhuge Sima’s halo became even more profound. Its purple color turned even more intense and dazzling.
At the same time, Shen Tian could feel his body relax quite a bit.
It was clear that his providence had also increased.
Shen Tian’s smile grew brighter.
…
The disciples from the two great clans were stunned by the scene. They didn’t expect Shen Tian to be so wealthy and generous.
He could give away a supreme-grade Sage herb just like that as if it was just a roadside weed.
Did he really not value it? Was his family really that rich?
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s level of generosity and graciousness was just unattainable by an ordinary person!
Zhuge Sima kept the treasure as everyone looked on enviously.
This was a supreme-grade Sage herb, after all. Who wouldn’t desire it?
At that moment, the corners of Shen Tian’s lips lifted slightly. He waved, and multiple vines shot out toward the valley.
Soon, those vines came back with a large pile of glistening Vermilion Fruits.
Shen Tian distributed these Vermilion Fruits to the disciples of the two great family clans.
“Everyone, these Vermilion Fruits are my gift to you. To celebrate our friendship!”
There were more than 10 Vermilion Fruits, and there were just enough to distribute to all those disciples.
The providence of those disciples was not as good as Zhuge Sima’s, but most of their halos were red, and they could also be considered Sons of Providence.
The more fat sheep he could gather, the better. Shen Tian would never be stingy with something like that. As a result, he would treat them all fairly and well.
Also, these Vermilion Fruits were just supreme-grade Spirit herbs, and they were not that important to Shen Tian.
Nonetheless, they were rare items to these young prodigies.
“Thank you, Brother Shen!”
The disciples from the two great clans were very moved.
They all voiced their thanks, their hearts filled with gratitude for Shen Tian.
…
The crowd continued forward to explore the Mystic Divine Island’s inner regions.
At that moment, everyone was filled with anticipation. They believed that they would definitely gain a good harvest from this trip.
This was just the periphery of the domain, and there were already so many Spirit herbs and Sage herbs.
It could be imagined just how much greater the fortuitous opportunities in the Mystic Divine Island’s deeper regions would be.
Unsurprisingly, they encountered a blockage before they managed to venture much further.
A huge light barrier had appeared in front of them. It was dazzling and reaching up high into the sky.
The light barrier was misty and blurry, covered in a thick grey fog and filled with a cold, harsh aura.
Yin energy swirled around it, extremely cold and chilly. It was hair-raising.
It was like the Yellow River from the Netherworld, dark and dim, chilling one right to the soul.
Thereafter, the scenery changed to become bright and blazing, as if lit up by the scorching sun.
The mighty Yang energy was searing hot as if the land had turned into a hellish sea of fire, surging endlessly.
At the sight of that, everyone halted in their tracks and looked very grave.
This was just too terrifying. It radiated with an extremely powerful aura. No one dared to go near it.
Zhuge Yuan stepped forward with a stern expression. “Could this be the Yin-Yang Burial God Domain mentioned by our forefathers?”
“Ancestor, what is the Yin-Yang Burial God Domain?”
Zhuge Sima raised the question. He had never heard of this domain before.
Sima Cheng also stepped forward, his eyes profound. “Tens of thousands of years ago, our forefathers entered this place and discovered the Yin-Yang Burial God Domain.
“It was said to be a very mysterious domain.
“It is filled with a power that does not belong to this world—the Origin Yin-Yang Energy, formed by chaotic aura.
“A normal person would be unable to refine this energy.
“Previously, our forefathers came into contact with it and nearly suffered a Qi Deviation.”
Sima Cheng’s voice was full of dread and trepidation. He was very fearful of it.
…
The forefathers of the two great clans had already ascended to the Sub-Immortal level. They could be considered elite practitioners.
Even so, they had nearly been swallowed by the Origin Yin-Yang Energy. It could be seen just how terrifying this place was.
For a moment there, everyone’s heart shuddered with fear.
Zhuge Yuan continued explaining. “Thereafter, our forefathers received the Dragon Armor Heavenly Book legacy. They wanted to enter the place again to explore.
“Their domain power had greatly increased, and they were confident of exploring this place again.
“Even so, they were unable to venture into the inner regions and were forced back.
“It was said that whatever is hidden in here is too terrifying. It has destroyed countless deities and Perfected Immortals!
“There is some supreme power inside, a bloodthirsty one!”
Zhuge Yuan was filled with fear. He shuddered as if he was talking about some forbidden topic.
Everyone’s expressions underwent a major shift upon hearing his words.
Just hearing about the matter made their hearts tremble. They did not dare to continue forward.
“Luckily, there is another way to enter the Mystic Divine Island’s inner regions.
“We don’t need to barge through this domain. Let’s go around it!”
From the records left behind by their forefathers, Zhuge Yuan knew there were other available routes. As a result, he was not too worried.
With their current abilities, they couldn’t break through this formation.
Everyone nodded in agreement. They would never enter a place where even their ancestors dared not venture.
…
At that moment, Shen Tian calmly gazed into the Yin-Yang Burial God Domain. His eyes turned very profound and radiated a divine glow, as dazzling as the stars in the galaxy.
Shen Tian was activating his Connate Heavenly Dao Eyes, peering into the Yin-Yang Burial God Domain’s inner regions.
The murky space instantly turned clear and bright thanks to the Connate Heavenly Dao Eyes.
A massive lake was in the center of this domain.
The lake water shimmered like a pool of liquid gold. It was spectacular.
A lotus flower was in the center of the lake.
That lotus looked very special. One side was gold, as dazzling as the blazing sun.
The other side was silver, as pristine as the silver moon.
Shen Tian’s eyes narrowed slightly at the sight. He muttered to himself, “Is that the… Reincarnation Lotus?”
He had seen descriptions of this flower in the Lotus Thearch’s Hundred Herb Sutra.
Legend had it that the Reincarnation Lotus was born from absorbing the Origin Yin-Yang Energy. It was the world’s rarest Immortal herb.
It was superior to Thearch herbs and was something that would tempt even the Celestial World powers.
Naturally, the conditions for the Reincarnation Lotus to flourish were very stringent. It required a limitless quantity of blood and flesh essence before its Yang flower would blossom.
It also required endless Yin energy to form the Yin flower.
But to give rise to the full Reincarnation Lotus, it would require a boundless amount of Origin Yin-Yang Energy as nourishment.
On top of that, it needed a peerless formation constructed around it to prevent the aura from leaking out.
Given its many strict conditions, few people could achieve it, even in the Celestial World. Thus, it could be imagined just how valuable this Immortal herb was.
But now, he had spotted a Reincarnation Lotus here.
Could it be that this place used to be a battlefield in ancient times? Where countless great powers died?
This was the only possible explanation.
Shen Tian’s eyes grew bright. He couldn’t resist the desire to collect that herb.
It should be pointed out that he hadn’t seen this in Zhuge Sima’s fortuitous opportunity image.
This meant that Zhuge Sima would not obtain this Reincarnation Lotus.
This great fortuitous opportunity was priceless!
…
After seeing the Reincarnation Lotus, Shen Tian felt that even his Purple Mansion Spiritual World was trembling with desire for it.
The Yin-Yang Double Aura inside his body yearned for the herb, wanting to absorb it.
This item would be very beneficial to Shen Tian!
Shen Tian’s eyes burned. He decided to try and collect this Reincarnation Lotus.
This was a peerless Immortal herb. He couldn’t help being tempted.
At that thought, Shen Tian did not hesitate any longer. He walked toward the Yin-Yang Burial God Domain.
The disciples of the two great clans were shocked.
Zhuge Sima and Sima Cheng were startled and hurriedly called out. “Shen Tian, there are great dangers ahead. Don’t go in!”
The Yin-Yang Burial God Domain was truly too terrifying. Countless Perfected Immortals and deities had died inside.
Even the ancestors of the two great clans did not dare to venture inward. It could be seen just how terrifying it was.
Although Shen Tian could handle chaotic aura, he might not be able to defend against Origin Yin-Yang Energy. There might be some additional hidden terror inside as well. After all, no one knew anything about what the inside was like.
Nevertheless, Shen Tian was confident. “Don’t worry. Let me go in to take a look!”
Previously, the forefathers of the two great clans had managed to leave the place safely. This showed that it was not certain death inside.
Given Shen Tian’s abilities, even if he couldn’t break the formation, he was confident of escaping in one piece.
With that, he entered the Yin-Yang Burial God Domain and disappeared.
…
The two great clans were shocked, but they did not dare to chase after him.
Zhuge Sima and Sima Cheng shuddered. “Why is Shen Tian taking such a big risk? This is definitely forbidden ground!”
Just the aura from this Yin-Yang Burial God Domain alone was enough to chill them to the bones.
Zhuge Sima’s eyes hardened. “I believe in Big Brother Shen. He never acts rashly.”
Shen Tian’s formation abilities were very good. He could be considered one of the top in the five regions.
This Yin-Yang Burial God Domain may be dangerous, but it was still a domain.
Given Shen Tian’s abilities, he definitely had a chance of breaking it.
“We also have faith in Big Brother Shen. He is so powerful that he will definitely be fine!”
Zhuge Meng and Sima Xue also stepped forward, their faces full of determination.
Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng exchanged looks. “Let’s hope so then!”
“If anything happens to Shen Tian inside, it will be a major loss to the five regions!”
The danger to the five regions had yet to be resolved. All the races were working hard on defending against the Evil Spirit race.
With Shen Tian’s powers and talents, he was destined to achieve great things.
He was an important power in their fight against the Evil Spirit race and would greatly support the five regions.
If anything happened to Shen Tian, Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng would be filled with regret.
After all, they were the ones who had invited Shen Tian along to explore this place with them.
At this moment, however, it was useless to say anything further.
The two great clans had no choice but to wait outside this domain, praying for Shen Tian’s safe return.
…
Shen Tiansuccessfully entered the Yin-Yang Burial God Domain.
The moment he stepped in, he could feel a boundless Origin Yin-Yang Energy gathering around him.
The Origin Yin-Yang Energy morphed into massive waves, churning with a heart-stirring power.
If a normal Sage entered this place, they would have been instantly eroded to bare bones and disintegrated to nothing.
This energy was just too terrifying. It was as ferocious as the chaotic aura, far beyond anything a normal Sage could fend against.
Still, this energy was ineffective against Shen Tian.
Shen Tian glowed with divine light, his aura mighty and powerful.
Multiple motes of light appeared on his body, making him dazzle.
Those motes of light were like whirlpools, radiating with a fearsome swallowing power.
The surrounding Origin Yin-Yang Energy immediately started churning like tremendous waves, surging into his body.
In that instant, light rays shot out in all directions. It was a spectacular sight.
Shen Tian’s body vibrated as his Yin-Yang Double Aura strengthened, giving rise to a formidable power.
That was not all. Even his Purple Mansion Spiritual World was rapidly expanding, becoming expansive and boundless.
Suddenly, Shen Tian felt his body relax as if he was a dragon swimming in the sea. No resistance or barriers at all.
The corners of his lips curled up slightly at this as he continued forward.
As Shen Tian made his way inward, he realized just how mysterious this place was. He was astonished by the sight.
The lands were a dark brown color, as if they had been stained by blood and then dried. Everything looked very harsh.
Broken walls and ruins were everywhere.
Shen Tian’s eyes hardened. A skeleton was in front of him. It was a scary sight.
The skeleton was crystalline and had a special shimmer to it. It also radiated with a subtle but powerful aura.
It looked like it had been here for tens of thousands of years, but it did not disintegrate and was instead perfectly preserved.
It was clear that this was the skeleton of an elite practitioner, maintained for years without disintegrating!
Shen Tian scanned his surroundings and saw that there were countless such skeletons spread across the area.
It was like a sea made of bones; rivers made of blood; the Yellow River of the Netherworld.
There were numerous fallen soldiers on the ground, all exuding a mighty aura.
In the midst were also many Sage artifacts, Mighty Sage artifacts, and even supreme-grade Immortal artifacts.
But they were all damaged and had lost all their powers.
This was like a mass burial ground, where countless deities had lost their lives.
…
Shen Tian’s pupils constricted at the sight. His mind was filled with questions.
What happened here?
What terrible thing could have caused the death of so many powerful practitioners?
Shen Tian continued forward. When he touched some of those skeletons, they instantly disintegrated into grey ash and scattered into the air.
Like the sands of time, all was obliterated.
Even the bones of the most powerful practitioners were unable to escape this inevitable decay.
Shen Tian had traveled a long way but still hadn’t reached the end.
Observing this scene, it was like he had witnessed a terrible war that happened tens of thousands of years ago.
Countless powerful practitioners had shed their blood in that war and finally ended up as a pile of bones.
But one batch of skeletons raised Shen Tian’s suspicions.
These skeletons were preserved perfectly, without any marking or scars on them at all. They were erected proudly on the ground, facing the skies in an unyielding manner.
These skeletons did not belong to people who had died in the midst of fighting. They were people who had been killed within seconds.
Shen Tian’s shock grew increasingly intense at the sight of that.
What kind of place is this?
What kind of power was able to destroy so many powerful practitioners? Where they didn’t even get the chance to defend?’
This was the great mystery of the Yin-Yang Burial God Domain.
One also had to wonder if the answers could be found on Mystic Divine Island.
