Coming up from the water was a lot easier than going down. Cheng Yu was the first to jump out of the water. However, the moment he jumped out, he felt something was amiss.
The originally faint green water had turned normal. Furthermore, Cheng Yu could no longer feel any vitality in the water. On the contrary, it was filled with a deathly aura.
"What's wrong?" Tian Xue's Tian Xing jumped out of the water. When he saw Cheng Yu was frowning, he asked curiously.
"Look!" Cheng Yu pointed at the lake below. All the fishes were wriggling around, as though they wanted to jump out of the water. Furthermore, a lot of them had already flipped over and were floating on the water.
"Why is it like this?" Tian Xue was puzzled.
"Seems like the green soil is the treasure that caused the water to become so mystical! Now, the water here has turned into stagnant water! "Cheng Yu commented.
"Then why don't we leave some soil behind? If all the fishes here were to die, wouldn't it be a pity? Perhaps, it might even turn into a stinky place. " Tian Xue felt that this place itself was a beautiful scenery. If they were to turn this place into a land of death with rotten fishes everywhere, it would be too regretful.
"What you said is reasonable. We can also use it to test if this thing is really so mystical." Cheng Yu pondered for a moment and felt that it was reasonable. Now that he had obtained the key to the Heavenly God Palace, he could be considered as the master of this palace. Although this place might not be able to regain its former prosperity, he still felt that he should still maintain the peace.
Cheng Yu arrived above the water hole and took out a portion of the green soil and threw it down.
The moment the green soil entered the water, it emitted a green fluorescence. However, the fluorescence immediately disappeared. Immediately after, the water in the garden reverted back to its original green color, emitting out vitality. The wriggling fishes immediately quietened down.
"Seems like this thing is really mystical. Here, leave some behind to save your mother! "Witnessing this mystical scene, Cheng Yu was also very surprised by this seemingly ordinary green soil.
Originally, he thought that this treasure was a whole. Unexpectedly, it was actually some soil. This had saved him a lot of trouble. He didn't need to bring the treasure up to Tianshan Sect.
"Thank you! Cheng Yu! " The amount of green soil Cheng Yu had given her wasn't much. It was just a small amount. But after witnessing such a mystical scene, she believed that it would be able to save a lot of people.
"You must never tell anyone about this. Even if it's your mother, you must not tell anyone. You just need to put some into the water, "Cheng Yu reminded Tian Xue.
"But is this really the divine water we're looking for? And do you think this thing can bring the dead back to life? " Although Tian Xue also saw that the green soil could be used to treat injuries and illnesses, it seemed like it wouldn't be able to save a dead person. Wouldn't that mean the dead fish wouldn't be able to survive?
Is your mother dead? Cheng Yu asked.
"Your mother is the one who died. She was inflicted with a very powerful poison from the demonic path. Her life is constantly slipping away. I wonder how she is now? "Thinking of her mother, Tian Xue had a face full of worry.
"This green soil is indeed filled with infinite vitality, but the dead can't be revived. If you don't believe me, we'll know once we try." Cheng Yu said. Then, he found the fish that was killed by him. He mixed some green soil with some water and fed it to the fish. As Cheng Yu said, the fish did not come back to life.
In fact, Cheng Yu didn't need to do any experiments to know the result. If this soil could really revive the dead, why didn't they know to use this green soil to save them when the Forest City disaster struck? Therefore, it was impossible to revive the dead. After all, legends would always bring along people's beautiful wishes. The more miraculous the legend was, the more people would believe it.
Although this green soil couldn't revive the dead, it was still able to restore vitality. This was already very miraculous. Tian Xue believed that her mother's illness shouldn't be a problem anymore. Tian Xue thought of this and her mood immediately turned for the better.
"Alright. Now that your problem has been resolved, it's time for us to see what treasures are hidden in this God Palace!" Cheng Yu smiled.
All along, the few of them had been in conflict with each other because of the god water. Unexpectedly, the god water problem had been resolved first. This had also resolved one of Cheng Yu's worries. At least he didn't need to stay in this forest for too long.
Thinking that as long as he were to obtain the treasures in this God Palace, he would be able to return back to the secular world, Cheng Yu's heart was filled with excitement.
At this moment, the trio's mood was pretty good as they left the garden.
According to the information provided by the god tree key, the trio arrived at the right side of the palace hall. This was once the residence of the God Palace Palace Master.
"Senior brother! That's it? Don't tell me there's no hidden treasures in here? " There were a lot of rooms but the trio walked past them one by one. When they reached the last room, they didn't discover anything. Tian Xing spoke curiously.
"That's impossible. We must have missed something." Cheng Yu also felt baffled. However, he didn't believe that the most mysterious Heavenly God Palace would be empty.
This Heavenly God Palace Palace Master was obviously the noblest person in the entire Forest City. The wealth he had collected must be astonishing. How could there be nothing here?
Cheng Yu also had no choice. The information provided by the god tree key was fragmented and incomplete. Therefore, the trio started to search through the rooms one by one.
"This should be the Palace Master's private secret room. The hidden treasures might very well be in this secret room!" Ultimately, Cheng Yu stopped at a room that was filled with broken porcelain and paintings.
"Why?" Tian Xing was puzzled.
"This secret room is obviously not meant for people to stay in. It's different from the other rooms. More importantly, there were so many books placed here. There's only an antique cabinet and bookshelf, as well as musical instruments, calligraphy, ink, paper, and inkstone. This is obviously the Palace Master's private room. It's impossible for the Palace Master to place his treasures in a place where people come and go. This must be his most private secret room, "Cheng Yu looked around before commenting.
"That's to say, there might be some mechanism in this room?" Tian Xing walked to the corner of the room, feeling around.
Cheng Yu picked up a book. Immediately, he was astonished. This was actually a cultivation technique and not a book! Cheng Yu picked up a few books and they were all cultivation techniques. After that, he went back to the bookshelf to take a look. They were all cultivation technique manuals.
"What's wrong?" Noticing Cheng Yu's expression, Tian Xue walked over and enquired.
"These books are all secret manuals!" Cheng Yu picked up a book and passed it over to Tian Xue.
"Blue Sky Sword Art?" Tian Xue looked at the name on it and exclaimed.
"What? Blue Sky Sword Art! Where is it? "Tian Xing heard Tian Xue's exclamation as he ran over.
"You know of this sword art?" Cheng Yu enquired curiously.
"This is our Tianshan Sect's Earth Grade Sword Art. Only Golden Core cultivators are able to cultivate it. Why would it be here?" Tian Xue explained in astonishment.
"Your Tianshan Sect's sword art? That's not strange. This place seems to be a library. It's not strange for there to be various sect's cultivation techniques here, "Cheng Yu went blank for a moment before replying.
"Not right. This sword art seems to be somewhat different from ours!" Although Tian Xue had advanced to Golden Core Realm in Death Forest, she had watched the Tianshan Sect Martial Competition many times every year. Although she didn't know how to use it, she was still able to tell that it was somewhat different.
"This palace has been underground for thousands of years. Perhaps, your sword art had been improved by countless ancestors," Cheng Yu didn't find it strange for something that had existed for thousands of years.
"Perhaps! Cheng Yu, can you give me this sword art? "Tian Xue suddenly enquired. Although it was discovered by everyone, Tian Xue had always felt that Cheng Yu had to agree before she could take it.
"Take it! Take a look and see if there's any sword art that you need. Since there's your Tianshan Sect's sword art here, perhaps, there might be other sect's sword art as well. Learn it properly. In the future, it would be much easier for you to deal with other sects. However, it's best if you can leave a copy for me, "Cheng Yu smiled.
He had also roughly seen through these cultivation techniques. However, they were all Earth Grade and below cultivation techniques. Cheng Yu wasn't interested in them. However, he would definitely bring them away. Coincidentally, he didn't know a lot of cultivation techniques. Furthermore, it wasn't suitable for him to impart his own cultivation techniques to others. With so many cultivation techniques, he wouldn't even need to impart them to others. Cheng Yu laughed in his heart.
Although he didn't need to know about these people's cultivation techniques, he wasn't thinking about himself. He wanted to leave it for his disciples to study, especially Kunlun and Shushan. When the time comes, he would be able to understand their weaknesses clearly. Furthermore, all of them would know their cultivation techniques, scaring them to death.
"Thank you. However, you can't learn other sect's cultivation techniques. Others might find trouble with you," Tian Xue replied.
Every sect had their own cultivation techniques that were passed down from generation to generation. If someone were to learn another sect's cultivation technique, it would be very easy for misunderstandings to arise. Others would either think that you were secretly learning the cultivation methods of other sects, or that you had killed their disciples, stolen their cultivation methods, and secretly learned their cultivation methods. Regardless of which one it was, that sect would not let you off so easily. Therefore, in the Cultivation World, learning another sect's cultivation technique was a taboo.
However, it didn't mean that everyone's cultivation method had to be the cultivation method of their own sect. For example, the cultivation methods of those sects that no longer existed could be learned. For example, the cultivation methods obtained during the experiential learning process were basically not the cultivation methods of the sects that existed in the current era. Therefore, it was completely possible to learn them.
"You guys are really stupid. Since you can't learn it, why can't you research it? Even if you learn it, if you don't use it, only a ghost would know. Furthermore, this is definitely the best way to frame others, "Cheng Yu laughed.
He wouldn't care so much. If Kunlun people were to provoke him, he would just lead his people to use Kunlun's cultivation technique to stir up trouble everywhere, causing them to complain about Kunlun. When the time comes, he wouldn't even need to make a move and Kunlun would suffer. Thinking of this, Cheng Yu became even happier.
"Senior Brother, you are really bad. However, what you said is very reasonable!" Tian Xing laughed sinisterly.
It was rare for Tian Xue and Tian Xing to have such a good opportunity. Immediately, they had forgotten about searching for the treasury as they started to select the cultivation technique manuals seriously.
