258: Chapter 258 [Golden Seed of Blessed Land], Fishhook? Changing Situation

Nowadays, the mechanical modification system of the Milky Way Galaxy also mainly utilizes extraordinary metals from various extraordinary systems to develop mechanical technology with complex functions.

Looking at it this way, profound qi is an important high-tier resource. Of course, this is the case within my Golden Elixir Fruit Status system; other extraordinary systems should have resources with similar equivalent functions.

Drawing inferences from this, Wang An realized that besides being a high-priced resource and a material for fruit status, profound qi could also serve as a supplement of law resources for his other Five Elements Dao Foundations.

"In that case, if I can refine the corresponding profound qi of the four elements—Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal—then a portion of the law resources I lack to accelerate my cultivation in the future will be resolved."

The reason he thought so was that even with his Heavenly River Water Golden Nature, it would take seven years to refine a single strand of profound qi.

Furthermore, profound qi of other attributes could not be refined together using the Water-attribute Golden Nature, which would take even longer. Adding the time needed to find and extract from treasure lands, the total time required would naturally not be short.

"Thinking about it, the law resources extracted in small batches by those high-tier civilized races must follow the same logic."

"Sigh, why think so much? It's better to first comprehend a universal profound qi refining method."

The world within the blessed land space, which originally spanned a thousand miles, further evolved its worldly principles after being illuminated by the light of the new Golden Nature law. It rapidly absorbed a large amount of spatial energy, expanding toward a world with a radius of three thousand miles.

As soon as Wang An entered the blessed land, thousands of auspicious colors, myriad rays of glowing light, and dense purple mist immediately appeared, along with the phantom of a divine bird's heavenly palace.

In the next moment, the innate law rune of his Incarnation talent—which had been hidden behind the class law rune—manifested briefly. It split off an Earthly Dao Law Golden Seed, which entered his True Spirit Inner Landscape Space. It stood alongside his various statuses and immortal Golden Natures, slowly rotating as it circled his True Spirit.

The original Incarnation law rune immediately hid itself once more, which did not have any impact on his Incarnation over on the side of the Bronze Human Race.

Moreover, Wang An was now very certain that his true talent was indeed this Incarnation talent—two bodies with one mind, sharing synchronized states. Compared to the blessed land hidden beneath this talent and undetected by the class rune, its true nature was even more suspicious.

Countless streams of information flooded into his Yin Spirit, letting Wang An know the cause of this sudden change.

[Blessed Land Grotto-Heaven Golden Seed]: Carries the Earthly Dao law of the creation of blessed lands and grotto-heavens, with a status slightly higher than that of a divine ability Golden Nature.

"This should be considered a type of incomplete Golden Elixir status. If I were to build a True Monarch Fruit Status centered around this now, the probability of success would be very high. However, this thing has been hidden in the dark all this time, only appearing now that I've cast a complete Golden Nature. There might well be hidden dangers."

"If it's someone else's hook, harvesting my Golden Nature like this would leave me completely helpless."

Looking at the [Blessed Land Grotto-Heaven Golden Seed] in his True Spirit space, which wanted to get close to and devour other law Golden Natures, Wang An used his equivalent status as the Lord of the Netherworld to forcibly seal it.

"However, I'll keep the sugarcoating and throw back the cannonball."

For the time being, he did not plan to dismantle the law Golden Nature on this golden seed, trying his best not to alert the potential angler behind it. Instead, he would use this golden seed as a guide to construct an Earth Immortal Blessed Land Great Dao that suited him, to see if he could obtain a portable space during the late Zifu stage.

He then continued to quiet his mind, dividing multiple Yin Spirit thoughts to simultaneously comprehend the profound qi refining method and the construction method of the blessed land and grotto-heaven space.

The four mid-tier powerhouses outside, who had originally intended to visit Perfected Man Tianhe, learned that he had entered seclusion to organize his gains. They simply informed the direct disciples who received them of their intention to visit once the Perfected Man emerged, and then departed.

For mid-tier powerhouses with long lifespans of seven to eight thousand years, if they were not in a hurry to pursue the obstacle-ridden high-tier status, a dozen years was merely the blink of an eye.

Three years passed quietly. Inside the Bronze Academy's Wisdom God Tree, the Incarnation was now located in the lowest library section.

After casting a Golden Nature, with the wisdom of countless living beings and a high-tier status added to his body, the speed at which Wang An absorbed Dao-attainment knowledge was incomparable to before.

By now, most of the Dao-attainment knowledge in the Wisdom God Tree had been basically collected. As for fully digesting it, that was not something that could be accomplished overnight.

Closing the final bronze page, Wang An let out a long sigh.

"It's time to leave. I shouldn't keep the angler waiting too long."

After bidding farewell to several familiar Bronze Humans at the Bronze Academy, Wang An headed to the ground spaceport of Qingji Star. However, upon his arrival, several of his old friends were already waiting there.

Leading them were still Vice Dean Gaoyang Zhenkong, Jiuli Bingjian, Shennong Yinmu, and Huayin Jiaoyue. As Wang An landed, his Heavenly River Dharma Body automatically warded off the invisible law pressure of the several powerhouses.

This scene of effortlessly looking down upon laws caused the eyes of the several people present to narrow. Gaoyang Zhenkong took a step forward and spoke first.

"I didn't expect the Perfected Man to have already entered mid-tier level 3. As expected of the ancestor of a Dao, your cultivation speed makes an old man like me, who has lived for five or six thousand years, feel utterly ashamed. With this strength of yours, I'm not so worried about you heading to the other human races anymore."

"Oh? Why is the Vice Dean worried? If there are any difficulties along the way, please speak plainly so that I can make preparations early."

"Sigh!"

Gaoyang Zhenkong sighed, tapped his communication bracelet to project an intelligence report, and then said slowly.

"According to reliable intelligence, a mid-tier civilization four thousand light-years away from our Bronze Star Domain was wiped out by a suddenly surfaced civilization. A high-tier lord from the suzerain of this mid-tier civilization has already gone to handle it. However, since there is still no news, I'm afraid the other party also has high-tier power to contend with them, so they won't be taken down so quickly."

Hearing this news, even Wang An, whose mindset had become extremely stable after reading countless pieces of Dao-attainment knowledge, was somewhat shocked.

One must know that even though the surfacing of ruin civilizations had been very frequent over the past few million years, and had recently shown a trend of intensifying,

any event involving high-tier entities had always occurred in places like ruins and remains. As for the surfacing of civilizations, Qingxu Heaven was already the grandest recorded instance. It had even seen the emergence of high-tier law abominations and evil spirits, dangers typically found only within ruins.

Never before had a truly normal law-bearing living being surfaced into the Milky Way Galaxy.

Because based on the Milky Way Galaxy's current understanding of deep cosmic space, only when a world entered a Dharma-ending age or experienced cataclysmic changes—where extraordinary laws rapidly diminished and material laws became dominant—would it be expelled from deep space and enter the shallow sea of stars where material laws were more stringent.

For a civilization to wipe out a mid-tier civilization with countless millennia of accumulation as soon as it appeared, and even contend against the attacks of a high-tier powerhouse, was already beyond what conventional law abominations or evil spirits could compare to.

It was either a high-tier law treasure, or simply a high-tier living being with a complete status.

However, a world guarded by such a living being would be able to absorb the chaotic qi drifting between countless worldviews in deep space to replenish laws and energy for a world entering a Dharma-ending age. It absolutely should not have fallen into such a state. The matters involved here were likely already beyond what his current horizon and status could speculate on.
