Chapter 1498: Water of True Spirits

Water of True Spirits

"It is the most difficult thing to pay the debt of gratitude. Just forget it, and stay alive!" Bu Xiangfeng laughed and said, "I am off now. Take care."

"You too."

Ping Shanyue said.

Before he said it, Bu Xiangfeng was already gone.

Ping Shanyue quietly sat down and said in a low voice, "In the city, the Hall of Life and Death. That's right. In the City of Chaos, the Hall of Life and Death."

After that, he closed his eyes and became like a sculpture again.

People like him were always high above ordinary people as if they could do whatever they wanted.

However, they knew how difficult it was.

Because they were powerful, what they had to do in their lives were much more dangerous than others!

In the Limitless Ocean, who was more powerful always met bigger dangers in daily life.

If there was a place that could save their lives, they would definitely keep it in mind.

Just as Bu Xiangfeng said, one should always keep alive first. How did a dead man talk about anything?

No matter how big a price they had to pay, they would pay it to continue their lives!

Everybody wanted to live!

…

The most famous inn in the City of Chaos was Brothers Drink, which belonged to the Brotherhood Alliance!

Brothers Drink was the name of the inn.

It was not only a hotel but also a restaurant. It was a huge building, where almost all the itinerant cultivators would stay at when they came to the City of Chaos.

Bu Xiangfeng's second target was right in this place.

He came here for three men.

People called these three men—Three Poisons in Lian Mountain. They were sworn brothers, also disciple brothers in the same sect.

Before Bu Xiangfeng entered the room of the First Poison, he knocked on the window.

When he got in, the three men were all sitting in the room, staring at him with caution.

Their eyes were like sharp swords pointing at Bu Xiangfeng.

"Old Bu, it is you!" The First Poison seemed to be more cautious. "What are you doing here?"

The other two men both put their hands together, looking cautious.

They knew about Bu Xiangfeng. They were not friends but knew each other.

That was all. However, at this dangerous time, nobody knew what Bu Xiangfeng was after! What if he was here to kill the three brothers?

"Relax. I am here to offer you life. Well, one life, or three lives. How generous I am." Bu Xiangfeng laughed.

…

After a while, Bu Xiangfeng left.

"Brother, what do you think? Is this guy telling the truth?" The Second Poison was in thoughts.

"Bu Xiangfeng is much more powerful than us. He doesn't need to fool us. It won't hurt us, and doesn't benefit him either." The First Poison said.

"I think Old Bu is acting weird, but he has shown us kindness. It is always a good thing to have somewhere to save our lives. I don't care how much it costs." The Third Poison said.

"Well… Let's not forget about that place then." The First Poison took a breath and said, "One will always get hurt in the martial world. Just in case… It is always good to have a place that can save us."

"That's right. In the city, the Hall of Life and Death. I have marked it down!"

"Second, listen… Go to Master and his wife, and tell them the message." The First Poison said.

"What? Tell Master and his wife? Who can possibly hurt them anyway…" The Second Poison was surprised.

"You fool! They don't need it, but our disciple brothers and disciple sisters do. Are you going to tell them one by one? Just tell Master and his wife, and they will do whatever should be done!" The First Poison stared at the Second Poison.

"Yes. That's right. I'm on it." The Second Poison looked upset.

"No matter how much it costs, it is a chance to live. Life is much more important than anything else."

The First Poison saw the Second Poison off and murmured.

"I don't think Old Bu would lie about this."

…

In the end, Bu Xiangfeng had told three groups of people. He should have done a great job, but he wanted to do better, so he told two more men. After that, all the people that he knew that had arrived at the city were informed.

So he started to go back.

"I truly don't know what it can actually bring us." Bu Xiangfeng was confused. "If you want to let more people know, you should tell as many people as you can. Why did he only want me to tell a few people? What is that about? If these people don't get hurt, I have wasted my time over there, haven't I?"

"I really wonder what is in the young man's head."

Cha-Eun Xiao was watching the construction going with both hands behind his back.

The high walls were rising up. He was the owner of them. That made him feel proud.

Everybody would have this feeling. Whoever had bought a house and watched the workers decorating the interior could feel the same feeling.

The walls seemed to be big and tall, but could only keep normal people out. They wouldn't stop the cultivators. With a jump, most of the cultivators could get over the wall. Some of the cultivators could even easily destroy the wall with one hit.

However, without the walls, Cha-Eun Xiao just didn't feel like he owned the place. It was all about a sense of security.

The walls were almost finished. It reminded Cha-Eun Xiao of the legend in the city, Cha Hongchen. 'Perhaps, when the Great Master Cha built the City of Chaos, he had a similar feeling as I do now.'

"The Hall of Life and Death should be separated from the mansion."

Cha-Eun Xiao looked at the woods not far away from the mansion.

He decided to make it an unattached place. The Monarch's Hall would become a large organization, and he didn't want the patients staying in the yard of the mansion…

It just didn't look good.

After making the decision, Cha-Eun Xiao slowly entered the woods alone.

When he came out of the woods, everybody else was shocked.

The workers, the Dark Evil Spirit, and Bai Long were all shocked.

The woods had changed!

When they first saw the woods, the biggest tree among all was only as thick as two men holding hands. It was not allowed to let the trees grow as big as they could in the city after all.

However…

After Cha-Eun Xiao got in and out, the trees became taller and bigger.

After a while, when Bai Long looked at the trees, he was shocked.

The construction of the Monarch's Hall had started for quite some days. There were people sweeping the floor every day. The fallen leaves on the ground would be cleared every time, and a small path into the woods was revealed… Now there was a thick layer of leaves on the floor all of a sudden…

The leaves had covered the ground, and it was a few feet thick…

It was surely abnormal. Something must have happened. What was it though?

The trees still got more leaves falling. From time to time, when the wind flew over, the falling leaves were like heavy rain. As the leaves fell so fast, the trees should be bare, but they weren't. That was weird!

The leaves on the trees were all green and heavy.

The trees only became even more lively.

Bai Long was happy, so he jumped up to a big tree.

With his eyes widely opened, he watched the tree change.

He saw the branches growing out on the trunk and started to grow bigger and bigger…

After a while, leaves grew up on the branches, and then grew bigger, and then fell off. After that, new leaves grew up fast. The branches were becoming bigger and bigger…

Bai Long was concentrated on watching the trees grow until he felt something sticking on his behind. As he looked down, it was a branch growing under his behind… If he didn't notice it early, he might get his behind hooked by the fast-growing branch…

After that, he realized that the small branch had already grown as big as a human arm.

The leaves on the floor became thicker… It was quite a heavy layer now…

After that, the leaves had already grown so heavy around him, as if he was going to be sealed in the woods…

He didn't dare to stay any longer. Branches kept growing up around him. He might really get hooked inside his behind by a new branch. It would be a huge humiliation if it truly happened…

Bai Long waved apart the branches and escaped the encirclement of the leaves. When he looked back at the big tree, the tree was already too thick for five men to hold around hand in hand…

Not only one tree, but many trees in the woods were the same. A forest of giant trees was forming up.

Bai Long felt muddleheaded, and he staggered ahead.

Within the time of a few blinks, he felt like he had been through centuries in this place.

The feeling was too real. He observed the leaves, branches, tree trunks growing bigger and bigger…

Bai Long grabbed the Dark Evil Spirit's arms and said, "How long have I stayed on that tree? How many years? Tens of years?"

The Dark Evil Spirit looked at Bai Long like he was a lunatic. He said, "What the hell are you talking about? Did you get drunk? You stayed up there for no longer than one hour. What the hell makes you think it is years? What are you? God of dreams?"

"One hour… Only one hour…" Bai Long was blank.

He thought he had at least stayed up there for years. Otherwise, how come the trees grew so fast?

Bai Long was totally lost. The Dark Evil Spirit touched his chin and stared at the woods. He nodded and said, "You know what? Master has chosen a good spot here. Look at the view here… It is rare to see a beautiful forest like this in a city."

Bai Long twisted his mouth.

He was totally awkwardly speechless about how indifferent the Dark Evil Spirit was.

'He actually hasn't realized the huge change here… It is so obvious!'

When he turned over, trying to talk to Cha-Eun Xiao and ask for the reason, Cha-Eun Xiao was already gone…

…

Cha-Eun Xiao knew that he had gone too far on that, so he hurriedly ran away.

He really didn't want to answer the question!

He did too much about it this time!

The Water of True Spirits he accumulated in the Water Space had become a small lake now.

Since he arrived in the Human Realm Upon Heavens, he drank the water in that lake, because the desolate area didn't have water. After drinking the Water of True Spirits for some time, he notices some changes in himself, but he didn't know exactly what it was. He just felt it.

One day, he used the Water of True Spirits to water the plants in the Space. He had only splashed a little on the plants, and the plants actually grew much bigger!

After that, Cha-Eun Xiao kept watering the plants in the Space with the Water of True Spirits. If he felt that something grew too slowly, he would water it with the Water of True Spirits. He had a lake of it after all.

The Wood Space became a forest of medical plants now, only because of the Water of True Spirits.

Since he came to the City of Chaos, especially after he studied the Medicine Ranking List in the Human Realm Upon Heavens, he had moved the plants that were so valuable in the world to one piece of land in the Space.

When he did it to the woods in the real world, he had a simple reason. He just wanted the trees to grow bigger, so it could make the area more covert…

When he entered the woods, he watered the trees. Before he did it, he even diluted the Water of True Spirits.

He truly had diluted the Water of True Spirits a lot. When he finished watering the trees, he even thought about watering them again the next day, because he believed it wouldn't be so effective.

He was weak as a cultivator, but he was strong enough to be a gardener anyway. After a while, he had finished watering thousands of trees.

When he finished the last tree, he stood up and looked around—he was shocked.

Behind him, there was a tree, which had been cut when it was small, so it only grew as thick as the leg of a man after many years.

However, as he turned around and looked at the small tree, it was a big tree that was as thick as his waist now.

There were some branches growing out fast from where the tree got cut. The branches kept rushing up, making shooting sounds.

Cha-Eun Xiao knew he had done something terrible!

'This has gone too far…'

'I can't explain this.'

The trees around him started to grow fast, rushing up to the sky. It became a dense forest now…

Cha-Eun Xiao had missed one thing, which was important. The special plants in his Boundless Space, even those from the Qing-Yun Realm, were incredible plants in the world. It took them a thousand years to grow one inch.

Most of the plants in his Boundless Space grew extremely slow.

Even to water the plants with the Water of True Spirits, they still wouldn't grow much faster. In fact, it was impossible to see it grow.

The Water of True Spirits still accelerated the growing speed of the incredible plants in the Boundless Space after all. It was fantastic for plants.

When it was used on the plants outside the real world, it worked too well.

The trees in the woods were all Iron Maples, which were hard, but useless. When autumn came, they became red, which made them look beautiful.

A few hundred years of time was all they needed to become huge trees.

When Cha-Eun Xiao watered the trees with the Water of True Spirits, even though the Water of True Spirits was diluted, the trees immediately grew one thousand years in advance!

What would that look like?

All those trees grew up one thousand years without any pullback!

The Iron Maples had gone crazy!

Cha-Eun Xiao was standing in the middle of four trees, which should give him a few feet of empty space. However, after the crazy growth, there was only one foot long between two trees, and it was getting smaller…

When Cha-Eun Xiao looked up, he couldn't see the sky anymore.

That was why he decided to run away as soon as he could!

If he stayed any longer, Bai Long and the others would definitely ask him about the crazily growing trees. He didn't want to waste time explaining something he couldn't clearly explain…

In fact, even if he could explain it, he wouldn't do it. If Bai Long and the others knew that he watered the trees with that valuable Water of True Spirits, they would be utterly pissed, and they might even beat him to death! After all, he had wasted something quite valuable!

'Oh, holy heavens…' Cha-Eun Xiao wiped the sweat on his forehead. 'I think I should stop using things from the Boundless Space in the outside world… That is very dangerous.'
