In the center of the bamboo forest, the old bamboos were even greener and older. Moreover, there was a dense vitality surrounding the area, injecting life into the old bamboos.
Yang Wu discovered a strange scene here. There was actually a green pool in the center of this place.
"This … this is a pool of bamboo dew?" Cao Jifei was speechless.
Yang Wu said, "This isn't bamboo dew. It's the Spring of Life. It should be called the Bamboo of Life."
"Look, there's a stream over there." Cao Jifei pointed in another direction.
Yang Wu looked over and saw that the stream was becoming smaller and smaller, slowly gathering at the center of the pool. The water of the stream was originally turbid, but after pouring into the pool, it quickly turned into green spring water.
No one could see this process clearly. Only his soul could see it clearly. This was the power of the divine chains filtering out the turbid water.
In addition, he discovered that the source of this stream was the river they had just crossed. It definitely flowed in from there. Otherwise, the water wouldn't have contained holy Qi or traces of Death Qi.
From Death to Life, this was the Dao of Life.
Cao Jifei wanted to collect the Bamboo of Life, but she was stopped by Yang Wu. "Don't act recklessly. The power of the divine chains will kill you."
"Didn't you say that these divine chains weren't dangerous?"
"The surrounding divine chains are not dangerous, but the divine chains over there contain great danger. Even if a Deity were to approach, the only thing that awaits them would be death." Yang Wu said with certainty.
This time, Cao Jifei didn't dare to act rashly.
"Ji Fei, do you hear the sound of bamboo?" Yang Wu suddenly changed the topic.
Cao Jifei was stunned. "I don't hear it. There's no wind here. How can there be the sound of bamboo?"
"Calm your mind. Sit over there and listen carefully. You'll definitely hear it." Yang Wu pointed to a corner.
There were several old bamboos in that direction. There was also an empty space where they could sit.
Cao Jifei didn't question Yang Wu's words. She walked to the side and sat down cross-legged. She began to concentrate and calm her Qi, entering a state of meditation.
Cao Jifei was originally someone with astonishing comprehension ability. Her martial talent was not weak, but it was covered up by the Dao of Alchemy.
When she entered the state, the faint sound of bamboo could be heard in the Divine Court. This bamboo sound was very rhythmic, and it was difficult to extricate oneself from it.
Cao Jifei seemed to see a world full of vitality, and this world was full of all kinds of flowers, plants, and trees. All of them were heavenly materials. As an alchemist, this was her favorite medicinal garden. She took a deep breath, and then happily swam in this world. She felt the life of these herbs, and felt their happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy. This was a wonderful concept that she had never felt before.
To an alchemist like her, being able to understand the bits and pieces of "emotions" of every kind of medicinal herb would be of great benefit to her alchemy.
This was what she had comprehended from the bamboo sound.
As for how much she could comprehend, it would be up to her luck.
Seeing that Cao Jifei had entered the state, Yang Wu also began to look for his opportunity.
Before that, he released a few puppets and began to guard the surroundings.
This was the central area of the Bamboo Forest. Ordinary people couldn't find this place at all. The divine chains blocked everyone's vision and senses. Only people like him, who had different pupils, could discover this place was different.
But one could never be too careful.
He had to be prepared.
The puppets he had released were all very powerful. He had brought them out from the Divine Firmament battlefield. He had replaced his original control over them and made them work for him.
After doing all this, Yang Wu began to observe the power of the divine chains beside the pool and activated his Dao of Life and Death.
Regarding the comprehension of the Dao of Life, he merely scratched the surface.
It was not as deep as his understanding of the Dao of Death.
Now that there was an opportunity in front of him, he would definitely not let it go.
With some superficial foundation of the Dao of Life, he quickly sensed the way the divine chains flowed and began to comprehend the profundities of the Dao of Life.
This bamboo forest was a spiritual object born of the Dao of Life. It contained the superficial power of the Dao of Life, so it was beneficial to be able to hear the bamboo sound.
Others might only be able to hear the faint sound of the bamboo, but after Yang Wu entered the state, he heard the sound of bamboos growing.
It was as if he could see the bamboos growing crazily. He could see their radiant vitality, and he could see their appearance when they broke out of the ground.
The power of vitality was absorbing the Heaven and Earth Mystic Qi and the essence of heaven and earth. It gathered in one body and condensed into a spring of life, which could then sprout and grow.
The power of the pool was transformed bit by bit through the power emitted by the Sage corpse.
Teacher died and was reborn after death.
The two types of power were constantly changing, both on a thin line.
Yang Wu absorbed the vitality power around him and imagined himself as a seed. After the vitality power gathered, his vitality grew stronger and stronger until it finally broke out of the ground.
After it broke out of the ground, it needed to absorb even more power to continue growing.
The black and white lotus in his temple appeared. The white side crazily absorbed the vitality here, and even the power of the divine chains was pulled.
The power of the divine chains was a divine law condensed from the power of martial arts.
Obtaining the power of the divine chains was equivalent to comprehending the power of martial arts in this world. It was also equivalent to obtaining the true inheritance of this world.
Yang Wu had come into contact with many types of divine chains, but this was the first time he had encountered such a harmless divine chain. This had something to do with the difference in power of martial arts.
As the power of the divine chains was pulled into the black and white lotus, the power of the black and white lotus became stronger and stronger. The power of life and death changed faster and faster. The bamboo beside Yang Wu also changed. The old bamboo rapidly aged and soon entered a state of death. It directly withered and died. However, not long after, bamboo shoots broke out of the ground in its original position and slowly grew.
Such a cycle of life and death could be called a shocking phenomenon.
Who could so easily control the life and death of living things?
Yet, Yang Wu possessed such an ability. It was truly inconceivable.
As the divine chains kept entering, the sound of the bamboo grew louder and louder.
Yang Wu "saw" a different kind of divine chain power. It was an offensive martial arts.
The martial arts of life also had an offensive side.
The bamboo shadow of the test was the offensive side of the Path of Life. It could make the bamboo grow infinitely long and contain endless life force. The attack power would also be stronger, and it would be easy to kill people.
Yang Wu understood the offensive true essence of the path of life. The stronger the vitality, the more boundless the power of living things, and the stronger the combat power.
At this moment, the vitality in his body grew wildly. His whole body exuded a vigorous vitality. His skin became crystal clear and lustrous. His immortal Qi became more and more oppressive.
The Immortal Root in his body suddenly moved.
The power of the Immortal Root rarely took the initiative to react.
In these 10 years, Yang Wu rarely used the power of the Immortal Root. Instead, he focused more on strengthening it, wanting to make it stronger. However, no matter what he did, the amount of immortal Qi he absorbed was extremely small. It was as if the Immortal Root disliked the power he absorbed. Most of the power was purified and absorbed into his Dantian. It did not strengthen itself.
It could also absorb the power of immortal liquid. This meant that it was extremely picky about power.
It was not pure power. It did not care at all.
Now, the vitality erupting from his body caused it to move.
It was absorbing the vitality erupting from Yang Wu's body, and slowly growing stronger.
Not only that, but the Bamboo of Life in the pond in front of him was also absorbed. It was also accompanied by the power of the divine chains. They were all absorbed by the Immortal Root without reservation.
Yang Wu instantly came to a realization.
His Immortal Root had the characteristic of "undying", and the path of life corresponded to this characteristic. With an endless stream of vitality, life would not die.
Thus, the Immortal Root had to be strengthened in order to grow.
After Yang Wu was enlightened, he activated the path of life and frantically absorbed the vitality in the pond.
It was so difficult to encounter a power that could strengthen his Immortal Root. He would not let it go.
This made him even more excited than increasing his cultivation level.
As the power of the pond entered his body, the speed of the river became turbulent.
Originally, the water of the river only gathered slowly. Now, it rushed over like a flood.
The divine chains in front of the pond continuously converted the power of the river into the Bamboo of Life.
In addition, the vitality of the ten thousand bamboos also began to shrink. The essence of their life was completely absorbed by Yang Wu's Immortal Root.
The absorption ability of the Immortal Root was too terrifying. It affected the entire Bamboo Forest.
The Sages who were still in the midst of comprehending were shocked.
The sound of the bamboo was too loud, too noisy.
It was not as gentle as it was at the beginning. It had lost its guiding power of comprehension.
"I can't comprehend it this quickly? I've only just understood a little bit of life. "
"So the more powerful one's life is, the more powerful one's attacks will be. In the past, I neglected to temper my physical body's vitality. I'll have to put more effort in this area."
"So that's how the bamboo's myriad transformations came about. It's a pity that it was interrupted."
"No, what's going on with this Bamboo Forest? I can sense that their vitality is disappearing. Could it be that someone has obtained the inheritance here?"
…
The Bamboo Forest covered a large area. There were many Sages here. They began to sense the movements here. They saw the green vitality of the bamboos disappear in a certain direction.
No matter how stupid they were, they realized that a great change had occurred in the Bamboo Forest.
Unfortunately, they were unable to investigate. The divine chains here were weak, but they still blocked their way, preventing them from going deeper.
Xie Zhen, who was close to the center, opened his eyes wide and looked into the depths. He muttered, "Could it be that I'm not at the center?"
Xie Zhen cultivated the path of longevity, which had the same effect as the path of life. That was why he had entered this place through his senses.
He had always thought that he was at the center.
Now, he realized that his thoughts were a bit natural.
Without any hesitation, he headed deeper into the cave.
Unfortunately, the power of the divine chains here had changed. He was unable to break through.
Cao Jifei, who was next to Yang Wu, was completely stunned.
"He … Is he the son of an immortal?"
