Chapter 568: The White Divine Spirit Fruit, The Forbidden Barren Wasteland, To Each Of Their Own

The White Divine Spiritual Fruit was one of the Ten Great Spirit Fruits.

There were not many in history that had taken that spirit fruit before. However, the most famous example was a normal sky-pride who immediately became top-notch after consuming it.

That person also became an Emperor within the next hundred years, which was why the White Spiritual Divine Fruit was so well-known among the cultivators.

Chu Kuangren looked curiously at the spirit fruit in his hand. Then, he opened his mouth and took a big bite from it.

With a crunch, the spirit fruit exploded in his mouth, and a sweet taste went down his throat.

‘Hm, the taste is not bad. It’s just like eating a pear.’

Chu Kuangren took a few more bites, devouring the greatly famed White Divine Spirit Fruit whole into his stomach. He even ate its core.

Strange energy soon erupted within his stomach and rapidly spread throughout his body.

Following that, Chu Kuangren’s mind gradually turned black as he started to enter a mysterious state of enlightenment.

His understanding of the Dao was quickly improving too.

While Chu Kuangren refined the White Spiritual Divine Fruit and entered a state of enlightenment, many things happened in the outside world.

…

In the Forbidden Barren Wastelands, the source of Opportunities of Fortune in the Emperor Road.

According to rumors, that area was one of the first places to take form in Emperor Road. It was since known as one of the most ancient places in the entire Emperor Road.

Countless valuable Opportunities of Fortune were hidden within it.

Emperor-grade treasures, Emperor Weapons, and even the remains of former Emperor cultivators could be found there. As such, it attracted the attention of many cultivators to head there.

However, that location was sealed away with countless restrictions. It would only open when the Emperor’s Throne was about to emerge. Normally, that place was filled with many types of danger, and those who dared to enter it would certainly end up dead!

Now that there were some changes in the Emperor Mountain, most of the seals and restrictions within the Forbidden Barren Wastelands had been unlocked. As a result, the priceless Opportunities of Fortune t had reappeared once again.

Every sky-pride who wished to gain a spot on the Emperor’s Throne, especially the outlawed sky-prides, would never let such an opportunity slide. With that, everyone soon started heading towards the Forbidden Barren Wastelands.

Inside the Forbidden Barren Wastelands.

At a mountain range somewhere.

Terrifying shockwaves from an intense battle erupted everywhere, heavily damaging the surrounding terrain.

Coming from within the depths of that mountain range, several rays of five-colored light flashed with surges of horrifying Daoist Rhymes.

A group of cultivators was engaging a giant five-headed spider in combat.

The size of that spider was gigantic. From its aura, one could tell that its combat strength was at the level of a top-notch Boundary Emperor, and its skill in Five Ways Dao was even more impressive. However, the group of cultivators fighting it were no weaklings either. The weakest among them was as strong as a Sage Ruler, while dozens of other people were Boundary Emperors.

One of the young men had brilliant five-colored light radiating above his head. His power was almost on par with the giant spider’s.

Eventually, the giant spider was defeated by the group of cultivators.

Meanwhile, that young man, who was the Wang clan’s outlawed sky-pride, Wang Quan, looked into a cave within the depths of the mountain valley. His figure disappeared as he dashed into it.

Mists were swirling within the cave, and a five-colored pool of water soon came into Wang Quan’s sight.

“Judging by its aura, it seems like I have chosen the right place to look. This is the legendary Five Ways Essence, and it’s a high-quality one too. Once I’m done refining this, my Five Ways Divine Wheel will reach a greater level! When that time comes, I might even be able to go against Chu Kuangren!”

Wang Quan looked delightfully at the Five Ways Essence.

After that, he told the Boundary Emperors outside the cave. “I’m going to start my closed-doors meditation to refine this Five Ways Essence, so stand guard for me during the meantime.”

“Very well.”

…

“The sealing restrictions here are quite remarkable indeed.”

Bai Hongyu lifted her hand to form the Divine Bai Clan Seal, shattering the sword qi traps that were from the partially working seals.

After using up a great amount of spiritual power, Bai Hongyu finally broke down the restrictions before her, revealing a fiery-red long saber within. That saber had a unique and beautiful design, with several lifelike dragons and phoenixes carved on it. It also emitted an extremely dense Emperor Aura.

“An Emperor Weapon!!”

“I can’t believe it. This is really an Emperor Weapon. Rumor has it that quite a lot of Emperors met their end in this Forbidden Barren Wasteland. It seems like the rumors were true. This Emperor Weapon must’ve been left behind by some fallen Emperor.”

Bai Hongyu looked at the Emperor Weapon with excitement and immediately rushed towards it.

She also noticed a damaged corpse that was emanating surges of Emperor Aura not far from the Emperor Weapon.

“An Emperor’s body! Seeing that only a few bones are left, what terrifying power could’ve damaged this Emperor’s corpse to such an extent?!”

Bai Hongyu was very shocked. Before its seals were unlocked, this Forbidden Barren Wasteland must be hell on earth.

Nevertheless, she happily murmured, “If I can refine this Emperor’s body too, my power will break through to the Boundary Emperor Realm, and with this Emperor Weapon…”

She looked at that Emperor Weapon and reached out to grab it.

However, the Emperor Weapon was so rebellious that it unleashed a powerful streak of saber ray towards her, hoping that it would force her back.

“I’ll make you submit!”

Bai Hongyu’s face turned grim. Then, she rushed toward it while channeling her spiritual power and Daoist Rhyme.

After a few bouts of fighting, the Emperor Weapon finally acknowledged Bai Hongyu as its master.

“The Fiery Dragon Phoenix Saber.” After refining it with ease, Bai Hongyu soon learned the name of that saber. She let out a slight grin and uttered proudly, “Don’t you worry. As long as you’re by my side, I shall let the world know your name!”

The Emperor Weapon shook lightly and let out a wave of saber chant, causing the surrounding void to tremble.

“Just you wait, Chu Kuangren. Once I’ve fully refined this Emperor Weapon and the Emperor’s corpse, I’ll defeat you!!”

Chu Kuangren’s figure popped up in Bai Hongyu’s mind, and a cold glint shot out from her eyes.

…

“This… This is the inheritance of the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique!!”

Inside a spatial secret realm in the Forbidden Barren Wastelands.

Having accidentally entered that place, Xiao Jingchen looked at the levitating bundle of light in front of him with great shock.

The Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique was the second strongest physique in the world. Despite that, he had been suffering one defeat after another. At this point, any of the outlawed sky-prides could easily send him packing in a fight, let alone Chu Kuangren.

This made Xiao Jingchen feel incredibly depressed, so he entered the Forbidden Barren Wasteland in hopes of finding an Opportunity of Fortune that would change his fate. He did not have much hope while exploring the area at first. However, he eventually did find a great Opportunity of Fortune!

It was also one that suited him best!

“Seeing you’re able to enter this secret realm, this means that you possess the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique as well!”

“I’m known as the Great Emperor Moxuan. Similar to you, I’m also a host of the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique. Although I’ve become a Great Emperor, my lifespan was still limited. Hence, I came to the Forbidden Barren Wasteland in search of ways to live on for another life. Unfortunately, I met my end here. That is why I’ve left my inheritance here.”

“Cultivator of the future, once you’ve refined my inheritance, you’ll become a successor of me, the Great Emperor Moxuan. Do not bring shame to the might of the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique!”

An elderly voice was heard from that bundle of light.

After that, this bundle of light quickly fused into Xiao Jingchen’s body.

A pile of insights regarding the Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique unleashed within Xiao Jingchen, causing his combat strength to increase rapidly!

“My way of Dao is that of the Heavenly Imperial Dao. Its might can crush everything in its path!!”

“Once I’m done refining this inheritance, I shall reign supreme throughout the whole world!!”

“Sword Daoist, Wang Quan, Touheng, Bai Hongyu, and… Chu Kuangren!! Just you wait, my Heavenly Golden Imperial Physique will strike fear into all of you!!”

There was a look of confidence on Xiao Jingchen’s face.

Every sky-pride soon entered and explored the Forbidden Barren Wasteland, each gaining various treasures within it.

Everyone was making their final preparations for the fight for the Emperor’s Throne.

Meanwhile, far away at the Seven Emotions Sect, Chu Kuangren had also gained new insights during his closed-doors meditation.
