Chapter 13: Soul Nourishing Jade
(~˘▾˘)~~(˘▾˘~)
================
The soul shadow gently lifted him up and said, "Since you regard me as your adoptive father, even though I have nothing now, I can still offer you a great opportunity."
As he spoke, he pointed his finger and a nameless mantra was deeply imprinted in Qin Feng's mind.
"This is the Life Creation Scripture. As long as there is a breath, it can sustain life endlessly and reach Great Accomplishment. As long as the divine soul remains, even if only a drop of blood or a strand of hair is left, the physical body can be directly reshaped."
"I am in a more miserable state. My divine soul has been damaged and my physical body has suffered a fatal blow, extinguishing my vitality. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up in such a situation, barely surviving in the Five Elements Exquisite Pagoda."
"If I can cultivate the final chapter, even if only a trace of my soul remains, I can be reborn. Unfortunately, I have been unable to comprehend the last chapter, 'Soul Return'."
The remnants of the soul said helplessly.
The profound technique appeared in his mind, and Qin Feng felt the infinite mystery and wonder. The grade of this technique was definitely beyond what an ordinary person could possess.
As for the words of the remnants of the soul, he just listened.
But now, the important thing was not cultivation, but obtaining the supreme treasure.
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Qin Feng continued to explore.
Under the guidance of the remnants of the soul, he soon arrived at a dark cave.
In the center of the cave, a golden longsword was thrust straight into the forehead of a seven to eight zhang tall Great Demon with purple scales all over its body and wings on its back, keeping it dead in the cave.
Faintly, a sword formation was formed with the golden longsword as the foundation, suppressing the violent demonic energy within and preventing it from running amok and causing chaos in the world.
"Oops, I didn't expect this golden longsword to be the core of the formation."
"If the longsword is pulled out, it will definitely destroy the formation. Although this little demon is dead, the overflowing demonic energy will likely give birth to many demonic beasts." The remnants of the Immortal King said in a deep voice.
When Qin Feng saw the golden longsword, his eyes lit up. What a handsome treasure sword!
But hearing the Immortal King's words, it seemed that pulling out this sword would have a negative impact.
But what does it have to do with me if there are negative consequences? I only care about eating, drinking, and having fun in my lifetime, not the chaos after death.
He must take this sword!
However, he couldn't offend the Immortal King, leaving a bad impression.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Adoptive father, this place is only eight thousand li away from the Supreme Profundities Sacred Land. One of the purposes of the Supreme Profundities Sacred Land being located here is to suppress the demonic cave. This sword formation is just a temporary solution. Why not solve the problem at its root and release it, letting the Supreme Profundities Sacred Land deal with it?"
The remnants of the Immortal King fell silent, as if what he said made sense.
Qin Feng took a look and noticed a green stone beneath the golden longsword, round and smooth, resembling a medicinal pill.
"Adoptive father, look at that green thing. Isn't it a treasure?"
The remnants of the Immortal King focused his gaze and couldn't help but be shocked.
"The Soul Nurturing Jade! It's actually the Soul Nurturing Jade!"
"It nourishes the soul and enhances divine consciousness. This Soul Nurturing Jade is extremely useful."
Enhancing divine consciousness! Qin Feng felt a tingling sensation upon hearing this. If he used it on himself, his divine consciousness would greatly increase, leading to a significant boost in strength.
However, this thing seemed to be of great use to the remnants of the Immortal King as well, which was unacceptable. Moreover, he had to obtain it for him.
Qin Feng said, "Since it can nourish the soul, it must be of great use to you, adoptive father. I will go and get it for you."
First, show filial piety.
However, he had to be extremely careful to enter the sword formation.
One wrong move and he would trigger the sword qi, being torn apart without a complete corpse.
He explained the situation to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng was overjoyed and almost said with a determined heart, "You have been my foster father for a day, and you will be my foster father for a lifetime. If there is danger, I cannot just sit back and do nothing. Wouldn't I be a worthless son?"
Seeing his filial piety, the Immortal King's remnant soul was also pleased.
He didn't want Qin Feng to take the risk.
But Qin Feng insisted on going.
The two of them were at a stalemate.
Qin Feng suddenly spoke up, "Foster father, if I destroy this sword formation and pull out the golden divine sword, will I be able to safely retrieve the Nurturing Spirit Jade?"
"That's one way to put it, but..."
Without a doubt, Qin Feng said, "Foster father, I know you have a sense of righteousness and don't want to bring demonic energy into the world for your own benefit. But I have taken you as my foster father, and if I don't show some filial piety, I would feel guilty."
"On one side is the people of the world, on the other side is my respected foster father. My choice is to endure the world's criticism and retrieve the Nurturing Spirit Jade to nourish your soul!"
He said firmly, taking all the blame upon himself and calling it filial piety.
"Foster father, please tell me the method to retrieve the golden divine sword."
Even an Immortal King cannot fully understand the human heart.
What criticism? As long as he obtained the golden divine sword, he could leave without a care, regardless of the chaos around him.
This Immortal King also coveted the Nurturing Spirit Jade. With it, he could strengthen his divine soul and have a better chance of rebuilding his physical body in the future.
Moreover, how could he argue with such a filial son?
"Alright, I will tell you the method."
Qin Feng spoke with righteousness, "Today, in order to retrieve the Nurturing Spirit Jade, disaster has come. When my cultivation reaches its peak in the future, I will bring benefits to all."
The Immortal King's remnant soul was somewhat pleased. Qin Feng had a sense of responsibility and cared for the world. This foster son was still acceptable.
In the end, guided by the Immortal King's remnant soul, Qin Feng pulled out the golden divine sword and picked up the Nurturing Spirit Jade.
Although he desired it in his heart, he handed it over to the Immortal King's remnant soul without hesitation, as if it were just an ordinary stone without much importance.
He understood the art of negotiation. The Nurturing Spirit Jade was precious, but compared to the trust of an Immortal King's remnant soul, it was insignificant.
After pulling out the golden divine sword and picking up the Nurturing Spirit Jade, Qin Feng immediately fled from the North Sea Demon Cave.
Because he knew that once the sword formation was broken, the demonic energy suppressed here would erupt. At that time, even if he wore anti-demonic tree armor, he wouldn't be able to withstand the erosion of the raging demonic energy.
A day later, a demonic energy that reached tens of thousands of feet high and thousands of feet wide erupted from the center of the North Sea Demon Cave.
This demonic energy poured out crazily, spreading to the surrounding mountains and forests, turning countless monsters into bloodthirsty and cruel demons.
The Soul Formation stewards and Void Refining elders of the Supreme Profundities Sacred Land immediately rushed over, but they couldn't stop the eruption of demonic energy. In the end, they had to alarm the Grand Elder and use the treasures of the Supreme Profundities Sacred Land, consuming countless divine materials and spending a month to suppress the turbulent demonic energy.
Afterwards, the Grand Elder asked, "Have you found out the cause?"
"Replying to the Grand Elder, the Ancient Gold Demonic Sword that suppressed the Demon Cave was stolen by someone, which caused the turbulence of demonic energy."
The Grand Elder's gaze was deep as he looked at the Demon Cave. If it hadn't been discovered and suppressed in time, the entire area within thousands of miles, centered around the North Sea Demon Cave, would have turned into the Demon Realm.
Thinking back to what Elder Xuanji said a few days ago, that many people shining like stars would bring disaster to the Saint Child, it seemed that this was the beginning of the disaster.
The Grand Elder ordered, "Investigate thoroughly. If the person who stole the divine sword is found, bring them back to the Sacred Land, even if they resist to the death."
"Understood!"
