Chapter 359: Chapter 359: 301 Divine Venerable's Finger Bone_2

The two flew onto the island, and within their Divine Sense, everywhere was deserted, with only those two eye sockets still emitting time and space fluctuations.

However, there was a force obstructing the bits of the eye sockets, preventing the Divine Sense from probing inside.

Approaching one of the eye sockets, they saw only darkness, deep and unfathomable.

“Such dense death energy, there must be a Dead Spirit’s treasure hidden within, and it’s likely to be an extremely ominous object!” Monk Wumo said as he raised his hand to gather a brilliance like a thousand zhang of Buddha’s light, shining it down into the socket.

Where the Buddha’s light passed, the death energy quickly retracted, and in a short time, it was suppressed back to the bottom.

The two descended from within the Buddha’s light and saw that at the bottom there was an altar, and on the altar was placed a piece of Divine Bone, as if it were embedded into the altar itself.

The Divine Bone was a finger bone, emitting an extremely strong divine might, as well as intense space fluctuations, that neither of the two could approach.

“A single finger bone, and yet so terrifying!” Li Cheng’s pupils constricted as he muttered to himself.

Monk Wumo’s expression also turned grave, “This poor monk has seen bones of a Divine Emperor, but they are far from as formidable as this finger bone, which I fear may be a Divine Venerable bone!”

“Those Dead Spirits must have wanted to use the altar to turn it into a member of the Bone Clan, but they underestimated the bone’s power and didn’t succeed.”

Monk Wumo nodded, “That Bone Clan Divine King fled without taking it with him, presumably because it was too difficult to move quickly, fearing that he would need to summon the head, asking him to deal with this.”

The might emanating from the finger bone was too formidable for the two to approach, so naturally, it was impossible for them to take it with them.

Although Li Cheng felt regretful in his heart, he also knew that there was nothing that could be done, and he nodded slightly, agreeing to Monk Wumo’s suggestion to send a message.

While Xiao Changting had not yet returned, the two went to another eye socket to investigate and found that there was also a finger bone and an altar, with the same might, but this one emitted time fluctuations instead.

These two, clearly from the same individual, emitted both time and space fluctuations, which adequately demonstrated the owner was a cultivator who simultaneously mastered both Space and Time Laws, a being of at least Divine Venerable status, according to Monk Wumo.

Being masters of both Space and Time Laws, Divine Venerables are exceptionally rare, and the two could not identify the owner, only able to wait for Xiao Changting’s return.

They waited on the island for three days, during which true gods from the Ghost Clan came back to investigate, but all were converted by Monk Wumo.

Finally, Xiao Changting arrived.

“It’s a pity, the Skull King did not hesitate to drop his realm to cast a secret technique to escape, and we couldn’t keep him here.”

Xiao Changting landed, expressing his regret without the slightest concern for whether this matter would embarrass him or not.

Looking at the altar, Xiao Changting nodded slightly, “You did well, this altar must be destroyed.”

“May I ask, Lord Head, whose finger bone is this?” Li Cheng inquired.

Xiao Changting shook his head, “There have been numerous Divine Venerables proficient in space-time powers in the history of the Divine Realm, and this seat also does not know whose remains these are. After the altar is destroyed, this seat will take them back to the Demon-suppressing Department and place them in the Cultivation Tower for everyone to comprehend.”

The two finger bones, each carrying the Time Law and Space Law, were undoubtedly treasures for many Demon-suppressing Envoys.

Unfortunately, Li Cheng was not among them, as he was already abundant in both Time Law and Space Law.

He was almost at the level of a Law Envoy.

The two left the island, and in no time, terrifying power fluctuations emerged from within the island, as Xiao Changting made his move.

Li Cheng and Monk Wumo exchanged glances, both seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.

The power fluctuations from Xiao Changting were orders of magnitude stronger than those of the Skull King earlier!

“Lord Head is at the Complete stage as a Divine King, no doubt close to stepping into the Divine Emperor Realm!” Monk Wumo said with reverence.

Li Cheng gave him a glance but did not say much.

Before long, Xiao Changting took out the two finger bones, “These were discovered by you, and in the future, when you go to the Cultivation Tower, you may prioritize using them to comprehend the Laws.”

“Thank you, Lord Head!” both of them said in unison as they bowed.

Xiao Changting nodded, “Li Cheng, thank you!”

After saying that, Xiao Changting’s figure disappeared from sight.

Li Cheng was puzzled, thanking him for what?

Monk Wumo had a surprised look on his face, “The Lord Head actually thanked you, what did you do?”

“I don’t know!” Li Cheng was just as confused.

“Amitabha, this poor monk plans to continue searching for Evil Demon gathering places, what about you, Donor?” Monk Wumo asked again.

Li Cheng returned to his senses from his contemplation. “Does the Divine Monk just go around looking for places? Relying on luck?”

Monk Wumo nodded, “My Buddha power is very sensitive to the aura of evil demons, what is wrong with searching this way?”

Li Cheng smiled, “I think the Divine Monk should go to Savage City and ask around. There are many people there who have been mingling in Savage Ridge for a long time, and they know very well where the gathering places are!”

“Amitabha! Improper, improper, such actions will involve them in karmic consequences, this humble monk will still search on his own!” Monk Wumo refused Li Cheng’s suggestion.

After a pause, Monk Wumo said again, “With the Hundred Dynasties Meeting and the Demon Suppressing conflict approaching, I have thought it over and decided to return to the Demon-suppressing Department to prepare, and temporarily spare the evil demon.”

Li Cheng, who was also preparing to refine True God Pills for seclusion, nodded immediately, “Then let’s go back together!”

Upon returning to Kongqian Imperial City, Li Cheng went straight to the Kongqian Commerce Association, while Monk Wumo returned to the Demon-suppressing Department.

In the Mysterious Character 72nd Box of the commerce association, it was Deacon Zhao who received Li Cheng as usual. Li Cheng selected ingredients for a thousand True God Pills and a thousand Divine Monarch Pills.

Now, with only ten million Divine Stones, it was clearly not enough to buy them. Li Cheng didn’t want to use the high-grade Divine Stones from Blunt Empty Residence, so he proposed to exchange with five hundred True God Pills and five hundred Divine Monarch Pills instead.

Deacon Zhao happily agreed, for Li Cheng was a Demon-suppressing Envoy, and he was not worried about Li Cheng reneging on the deal.

In two days’ time, twelve thousand True God Pills were made, including over two hundred of King Grade, while the rest were all of top quality; the Divine Monarch Pills were the same.

In the presence of Deacon Zhao, who was so excited that he was nearly suffocating, Li Cheng left.

Five hundred top-quality True God Pills and five hundred top-quality Divine Monarch Pills, how rare were they?

Deacon Zhao knew he had made a huge profit!

On the other side, Li Cheng felt that he, too, had made a huge profit. He had only spent two days and a little effort, and now he had no shortage of pills for both the True God Realm and the Divine Monarch Realm.

A transaction where both parties felt they had greatly profited was undoubtedly the best kind.

Back at his residence, Li Cheng summoned Yin Yue and Duan Shuiliu.

“Greetings, Master!” Both of them bowed respectfully.

Li Cheng waved his hand and handed them two Storage Rings, “Deliver these two Storage Rings to Kong Lianqing and Monk Wumo. Afterwards, you’ll have ten years of free activity. It’s not good to stay in an environment affected by the flow rate of Time for too long.”

“Yes, Master!”

Once they left, Li Cheng placed Blunt Empty Residence in the house and went inside.

“Senior Ao, you haven’t dug up anything frightening, have you?” Li Cheng asked, seeing Ao Jiugai tirelessly gnawing at something.

“No, and it’s best if that remains the case,” replied Ao Jiugai.

Li Cheng looked at the hemispherical shape of the huge Divine Stone, where Ao Qing lay prostrate inside, falling into a deep slumber.

“What’s going on with Ao Qing?”

“After the baptism of the Fell Dragon Grass, she is now undergoing a simple bloodline evolution. Once she wakes up, her bloodline power will be stronger. Given time, she will surely surpass the royal line!” Ao Jiugai spoke, his eyes brimming with pride and joy.

The “royal line” he referred to was naturally the line of the Dragon Emperor, the most pure bloodline lineage within the Dragon Clan, wielding authority over the Dragon Clan.

If Ao Qing’s bloodline could surpass that of the royals, then that would be something to see.

“Are you preparing for seclusion?” Ao Jiugai shrank his body and flew beside Li Cheng.

Li Cheng nodded, “I’m planning to seclude for a thousand years, and when I emerge, it will just be in time for the Hundred Dynasties Meeting and the Demon Suppressing conflict.”

Ao Jiugai pointed to the Heaven Origin Divine Tree in the courtyard, “Then I suggest you enter the Divine Tree to seclude. This Divine Tree has remarkable nourishing effects on the Divine Soul. Your Divine Soul is already strong. If you nourish it with its help for a thousand years, the benefits will be innumerable.”

“Moreover, affected by me over these years, its growth has been rapid, and it’s no longer what it was before.”

Li Cheng looked at the Heaven Origin Divine Tree and indeed, it was thicker than before.

But seclusion was not urgent—now was a rare moment to relax. He’d think about it after fishing.

With some randomly selected materials to craft a fishing rod, Li Cheng began to fish.

Ao Jiugai rolled his eyes continuously, “Using a Divine Artifact fishing rod and top-grade Heaven God Pills as bait, does anyone squander like you do?”

Li Cheng shrugged, “This is already the most basic thing I have on me, don’t I lack something more suitable?”

Ao Jiugai’s mouth twitched, and he flew towards the edge of Blunt Empty Residence, “Forget what I said, carry on.”

Li Cheng smiled, planning to relax for a day, for what was to come would be a seclusion of a thousand years.
