Immortality Starts With Investment

Chapter 925: Supreme Immortal Root - Heavenly Will Immortal Tree!

”Congratulations, Host, on the successful gift…”

”Gift given: Heavenly Position Divine Bamboo Root!”

”Ten-thousand-times feedback in progress…”

”Detected that the gift is extremely important to the recipient…”

”Maximum critical hit feedback triggered!”

”Detected that the recipient feels heartfelt gratitude toward the Host and is willing to give everything without reservation…”

”Heart-striking feedback triggered!”

The exclusive heart-striking feedback unique to a ten-thousand-times female cultivator had been triggered.

The anticipation in Ye Chenʼs heart reached its peak at this moment. Ten thousand times multiplier plus maximum critical hit plus heart strike. The reward was bound to exceed all expectations. Especially since the gift he had given this time was the root of a spiritual plant. Perhaps it would even bring him the last immortal root he lacked—the Chaos Green Lotus—to complete Senior Anʼs physique?

Although their functions were different, the weight of a ten-thousand-times female cultivator might directly ignore differences in category. Thus, Ye Chen continued reading downward.

”Feedback: Supreme Immortal Root—Heavenly Will Immortal Tree!”

Supreme Immortal Root? What was that?

The sudden new term left Ye Chen utterly puzzled. As for the Heavenly Will Immortal Tree, he had never even heard of it. When had such an immortal root appeared in the cultivation world? Had the cultivation world version been updated?

Filled with confusion, Ye Chen looked at the description.

”Heavenly Will Immortal Tree: One of the twelve immortal roots of the Immortal Realm!”

”It attracts Heavenly Position laws and draws down the descent of Heavenly Will. When planted inside a cave heaven, it can nurture world will when the cave heaven advances into a world…”

”Every million years, the Heavenly Will Immortal Tree can produce one Heavenly Will Fortune Fruit!”

”After consumption, Heavenly Will envelops the body, fortune descends, and one ascends to become a Child of Fortune of the Immortal Realm…”

”As a Child of Fortune, one turns danger into safety, encounters countless opportunities, achieves whatever one wishes, enjoys prosperous wealth and luck, and attracts romantic encounters…”

”This treatment applies in the Immortal Realm and all its subordinate small worlds. In other worlds, the fortune will weaken, but it will still far surpass oneʼs previous state!”

Reading the introduction of the Heavenly Will Immortal Tree, even Ye Chen, who had seen countless top-tier treasures, could not help but draw in a sharp breath. He was shocked to the extreme. Was this the power of a ten-thousand-times female cultivatorʼs maximum critical hit combined with a heart strike?

Although it had not produced the Chaos Green Lotus he wanted most, which would have completed Senior Anʼs physique, it had actually given him an immortal root from the Immortal Realm itself? And its effects were outrageously powerful.

Attracting Heavenly Position laws was already impressive, yet it was the most insignificant function. It could allow a cave heaven, after advancing into a world, to derive its own world will? That meant the small world would possess its own Heavenly Will!

Everyone knew that Heavenly Will only existed in true, naturally formed worlds. He had never heard of anyoneʼs internal world having such a thing.

Although Ye Chen was not entirely clear on the benefits of a small world having Heavenly Will, he knew that having it was definitely better than not having it. But that was not even the most outrageous part.

The most outrageous part was the Heavenly Will Fortune Fruit. Consuming it would bathe the body in Heavenly Will and grant the status of a Child of Fortune of the Immortal Realm? What kind of concept was a Child of Fortune?

Based on the novels he had read in his previous life, it basically meant that if you walked by a river, a high-level female cultivator in deep slumber would drift over. She might even have been drugged and would need you to save her with your body.

When someone far stronger than you tried to assassinate you, all sorts of accidents would occur so that they could not harm you in the slightest. If you felt restless at night and went out for some fresh air, you would just happen to see a beauty bathing…

The Child of Fortune in the cultivation world might not be quite that exaggerated, but Ye Chen felt it probably would not be far off.

At this moment, Ye Chen was completely convinced by the term ”Supreme Immortal Root.” As expected of an immortal root from the Immortal Realm, it was on a completely different level from those of small worlds. And the difference was not small at all.

Most importantly, this was only one of the twelve immortal roots. How terrifying must the effects of the others be?

In this instant, Ye Chenʼs desire to become an immortal reached its peak. He wanted to become an immortal. He wanted to go to the Immortal Realm. He wanted to obtain all the immortal roots…

Right now, the most important thing was whether the Heavenly Will Immortal Tree given by the system had brought a fruit with it.

Ye Chen immediately chose to accept it. Then, with a thought, he shifted the enlightenment tea tree that had occupied the best spot slightly to the side to make room for the Heavenly Will Immortal Tree.

The next moment, a thousand-meter-tall immortal tree with a trunk that spiraled upward rather than growing straight descended with a rumble. The entire Floating Peak trembled violently, nearly unable to withstand the pressure and collapsing into pieces. Fortunately, the immortal treeʼs aura quickly stabilized, and the Floating Peak slowly returned to normal.

Ye Chen looked at the immortal tree. It had no leaves or branches at all—only the main trunk spiraling upward like a sleeping divine dragon coiled around itself. At the very top, a thousand meters high, a single golden fruit hung there all alone.

Joy nearly exploded in Ye Chenʼs heart. It really had one…

Just as Ye Chen wanted to examine it more closely, a voice reached his ears and pulled his divine sense back.

”Fellow Daoist Ye, I have also prepared a gift for you…Please accept it.”

Although Lan Nuo, who had just received the Heavenly Position Divine Bamboo Root, felt deeply embarrassed deep down, she knew that Ye Chen had most likely given the Heavenly Position Spirit Herb to Yan Qingcheng.

But Lan Nuo did not mind. She had never cared about such things. She believed the treasures belonged to Ye Chen, and he could give them to whoever he wanted. Giving one to Yan Qingcheng did not mean he loved her any less. That had been her previous thought. Now that she had received something even better from Ye Chen and understood that she was favored, she cared even less about the others.

Ye Chenʼs divine sense returned. Looking at Lan Nuo, who was still maintaining her aloof and cold demeanor, his eyes burned with intense heat. A ten-thousand-times female cultivator was truly too powerful! And Lan Nuo had really delivered. She had triggered the heart strike directly.

At this moment, Lan Nuoʼs position in Ye Chenʼs heart rose sharply. As for the Heavenly Position Spirit Herb Lan Nuo offered, Ye Chen did not dislike it in the slightest. He accepted it and transplanted it into his cave heaven. Later, he could find a suitable female cultivator to gift it to and receive another batch of Heavenly Position Immortal Herbs in return.

Lan Nuo felt Ye Chenʼs scorching gaze and grew even more moved. She did not speak any words of thanks, because she knew words were too pale. Action was the best way to express feelings. She immediately said, ”Fellow Daoist Ye and I are both at the Saint King realm now. Why donʼt you come to my cave residence for a cup of spring water and discuss the Dao…”

Ye Chen naturally had no reason to refuse.

After greeting the Lan Clan members—especially the ancestor, whose face was full of guilt and whose eyes were written with apology and self-reproach—Ye Chen leisurely followed Lan Nuo, whose figure was graceful in front and curvaceous behind, and floated toward her cave residence…

Once the cave residence doors closed, the previously aloof Lan Nuo instantly changed. Even her voice sweetened. ”Iʼm sorry, Master. There were too many people outside earlier… Master, you really love me so much… I want…”

Ye Chen, long accustomed to Lan Nuoʼs two different attitudes in public and private, immediately waved his hand. ”No, you donʼt…”

Having just experienced the terrifying feedback from a ten-thousand-times female cultivator, how could Ye Chen risk losing the critical hit chance just for a moment of pleasure?

So, you donʼt want it!

But seeing Lan Nuoʼs resentful little eyes, Ye Chen could not bear to be too harsh. He could only drink a cup of clear spring water and give this rebellious disciple a little sweetness to taste.

In this way, a full seven days passed.

After casually giving Lan Nuo another small gift, Ye Chen sent away the resentful-faced Lan Nuo and forced her to enter seclusion to refine the Heavenly Position Bamboo Root. He also promised to stay in the Lan Clan and wait for her to come out of seclusion before leaving.

Once Lan Nuo went into seclusion, Ye Chen immediately entered the cave heaven in a cheerful mood. He began to observe his Heavenly Will Immortal Tree. Luo Bingling and Lu Jing had already been shocked by the newly appeared immortal tree for several days. They had been sitting under it observing for a long time.

Luo Bingling, at the Saint realm, discovered that cultivating beneath this new tree made refining cosmic origin crystals even faster. It was more effective than the enlightenment tea tree. Moreover, ever since this tree had appeared, the Fusang Divine Tree—which had always been the most flamboyant—had become much more low-key. Its light had dimmed considerably.

This left both Luo Bingling and Lu Jing shocked and puzzled. What exactly was this tree? It could even suppress other immortal roots. After all, immortal roots were the highest-tier spiritual plants in the world.

When Ye Chen finally returned, Luo Bingling excitedly shared her experience after the new treeʼs arrival.

Seeing Luo Bingling, Ye Chen felt a slight pang of guilt. After all, this Heavenly Will Immortal Tree had been obtained by giving away the Heavenly Position Bamboo Root that Luo Bingling had worked so hard to bring back to another woman. The current Luo Bingling was truly sincere toward him. Doing this made him feel a little guilty.

To Luo Binglingʼs words, however, Ye Chen simply smiled. This was a supreme immortal root from the Immortal Realm. How could small-world immortal roots compare? They were not even on the same level.

Ye Chen felt that once he entered the Immortal Realm in the future, these ordinary immortal roots could be transplanted to the other floating peaks. As for his main peak, of course, it should be surrounded by a circle of supreme immortal roots.

Standing beneath the tree and experiencing its effects, Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction…His immortal-grade Heavenly Heart Imprint already refined Heavenly Position laws at a shocking speed.

Now, attempting to cultivate under the tree, it felt as if someone was grabbing him by the neck and forcibly pouring Heavenly Position laws into him. His Heavenly Heart Imprint could barely keep up with the refinement speed.

Ye Chen made a simple calculation. At this refinement rate, he would reach the peak of Saint King in at most two and a half years. This was despite the fact that his Heavenly Heart Imprint was of such high grade that completing it required a hundred or even a thousand times more Heavenly Position laws than an ordinary Saint King. Otherwise, it might only have taken a few months.

In short, it was outrageous. Truly outrageous.

But none of that was the most important thing at the moment.

Ye Chenʼs gaze turned toward the top of the Heavenly Will Immortal Tree! That single golden fruit held infinite attraction for him…As long as he consumed and refined it, he would become a Child of Fortune. Although he had walked step by step relying on talent and effort, who would not want to become a Child of Fortune?

Ye Chen did not hesitate. He floated upward and reached out to pick the fruit. At this moment, he had already decided on his next cultivation plan. He would stay in the Lan Clan for two and a half years, reaching the peak of Saint King before emerging from seclusion.

After that, he would deduce the location of the true body of the Alkaid Holy Son. On the way past the Immortal Path, he would slap him to death.

On one hand, that guy had lived long enough and deserved to die. But the main reason was that the origin he had harvested this time was really too little. It was not even worth making a special trip for his fiancée.

The Alkaid side, however, definitely possessed an astonishingly rich amount of origin. After devouring so many people, it would surely far surpass the previous Holy Princess! When he came out of seclusion, it would be the perfect time to go and harvest him…
