Imperial Cultivation Chapter 1476 - 1472: Subtle Wonders

Zhou Qingyu discovered that her eyes could no longer keep up with it, all she saw were afterimages.

"Master, is it dangerous?"

"The six red stones earlier should have been used to suppress it."

"Why suppress it? Is it very evil?"

"That’s hard to say." Chu Zhiyuan shook his head. "There are many possibilities for suppression."

"Master, can’t you tell?" Zhou Qingyu asked, tilting her head.

Chu Zhiyuan’s eyes suddenly became hollow.

A moment later, they returned to normal.

His eyes were filled with a sense of timelessness; his mental state suddenly became quiet.

Zhou Qingyu, sensitive to changes, sensed his transformation and hastily said, "Master, how is it?"

Chu Zhiyuan’s eyes looked over, calm and indifferent, as if looking at a stranger.

Zhou Qingyu felt as if he was about to not recognize her, quickly saying, "Master?!"

Chu Zhiyuan’s eyes flickered several times before returning to their usual gentle calmness and slowly said, "So that’s it."

Zhou Qingyu’s spirit was lifted, she hurriedly asked, "Did you see what it is?"

"Indeed, it’s an ancient exotic species." Chu Zhiyuan shook his head. "It was sealed by a powerful figure, originally to aid its transformation, but unfortunately..."

"Unfortunately, what?"

"The vicissitudes of life render the world insignificant." Chu Zhiyuan said, "That powerful figure has never appeared again; perhaps he has forgotten this place, or maybe he has passed away."

"How long has it been?"

"It’s unclear, the changes of day and night are too many, without reference, they’re uncountable."

"So it’s not an evil entity, is it?"

"It’s a vicious creature." Chu Zhiyuan said, "It will attack any living being that comes near it."

Zhou Qingyu asked, "Master, how will you deal with it? Ignore it?"

She was very curious about what Chu Zhiyuan would do.

Chu Zhiyuan sighed, "Stand here properly, I’ll go down and take a look."

"Be careful, Master!"

"Mm."

Chu Zhiyuan drifted down to the edge of the pool, and at this moment, a purple light shot forth, swift as lightning.

"Pop!"

Chu Zhiyuan lightly punched, and the void emitted a muffled sound.

The lightning-like purple light immediately solidified, revealing the form of the exotic beast.

It hovered in mid-air, only two arm’s lengths from Chu Zhiyuan.

On closer inspection, it was a snake.

Cold eyes transformed into purple flames, burning fiercely, making the misty purple energy on its body even more prevalent and dense.

In a daze, it seemed as if its entire body had transformed into a rising, jumping, and expanding purple flame.

She was shocked, having an illusion that this purple snake was about to break free.

At close range, if it broke free, both might not be able to dodge.

She couldn’t help but exclaim, "Master!"

Chu Zhiyuan lightly punched again.

"Pop!"

Another crisp sound.

The purple snake’s cold eyes flickered, and the purple light dimmed a bit.

"Pop!"

"Pop!"

"Pop!"

...

Chu Zhiyuan punched again and again.

The purple snake floated motionless in mid-air, only its eyes’ purple light growing increasingly dim.

The misty purple energy on its body grew thinner, transforming into a White Jade Snake.

Gently glowing, far from ugly, it conveyed a sense of elegance.

Zhou Qingyu watched Chu Zhiyuan in awe.

She never expected such soft and gentle fist techniques to be so powerful.

The most crucial thing was that he could land a hit; such speed, it could not evade his fist power.

After receiving a punch, it floated in mid-air, forced to endure punch after punch.

Suddenly, Chu Zhiyuan flicked his sleeve.

Already transformed into a White Jade Snake, it swiftly shot forward again, causing Zhou Qingyu to gasp and draw her sword.

Before the sword was unsheathed, the White Jade Snake had already appeared before her, drilling into Chu Zhiyuan’s upraised left palm, vanishing.

Zhou Qingyu knew it had been relocated again.

"Master, did you capture it?"

"Mm."

"Is it very useful?"

"Hard to say, it must be handled carefully, let’s go."

He turned his head to glance in the direction of the valley.

At this moment, a handsome middle-aged man had reached outside the valley, looking at the stone walls on both sides with curiosity.

He and Zhou Qingyu disappeared out of sight.

In the next moment, the handsome middle-aged man reached the valley, his gaze immediately caught by the pool.

Then, he noticed a horde of Cang Snakes falling like raindrops.

These Cang Snakes had kept a distance when Chu Zhiyuan and Zhou Qingyu appeared.

Though they were cold-blooded, they could sense danger; something about Chu Zhiyuan made them inexplicably fearful, keeping them at bay.

Forced by the pool water, they kept swimming upwards, going higher and higher. Now, they saw the handsome middle-aged man approaching and rushed forward.

The handsome middle-aged man snorted coldly, pushing with both palms while gracefully retreating, intending to evade these snakes.

With a palm push, a gust of ferocious wind howled like angry waves.

However, his face changed dramatically.

The densely packed snakes unexpectedly ignored the palm force, continuing to shoot forward.

"Halt!" He shouted fiercely, his body shooting forward abruptly, speed doubling.

These snakes closely followed, relentlessly pursuing him; even with his astonishing speed, he couldn’t shake them off.

He could only keep retreating, in a blink of an eye, he retreated ten miles away, where the snakes stopped their pursuit and turned back.

The handsome middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, his expression suddenly shifting.

He discovered his surroundings suddenly distorted, light and shadow swirling, and in the next moment, he was inside the Imperial Palace.

Surrounded by a dozen or so skilled warriors, looking around in confusion.

Three middle-aged men wore dark expressions, remaining silent.

His face also grew dark, knowing he had been forced out of the Grotto Heaven.

In the short term, he had no chance to return.

The adventure yielded nothing, futile efforts.

...

Chu Zhiyuan had watched the handsome middle-aged man’s ordeal with keen interest.

He suddenly flashed, appearing with Zhou Qingyu at the spot where the handsome middle-aged man disappeared.

By now, the Cang Snakes had flown away, leaving the area empty and void of anything.

Chu Zhiyuan stood still, his eyes slightly narrowed, deep like a bottomless abyss.

Zhou Qingyu curiously examined the surroundings, observing the stone walls on either side and looking back and forth.

"Master?" She was puzzled, unsure of the wonders here.

From Chu Zhiyuan’s left sleeve floated a White Jade Rose.

It drifted towards the void, slowly merging into it.

As it was about to disappear, it suddenly flashed and vanished, returning beside Chu Zhiyuan, then re-entering his left sleeve and disappearing.

Zhou Qingyu widened her eyes in curiosity.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

The spatial changes occurred in a flash, and when the Divine Flower tried to enter, it was already too late.

The original space entrance had already closed.

The subtlety of space was evident here.

Merely by retreating, it directly opened a space entrance and removed people.

This method of void relocation rivals his Earth Origin Technique.

The wonders of this Grotto Heaven indeed deserve thorough exploration, offering him endless benefits.

By understanding the mysteries of this New Cave Heaven, he deepened his comprehension of the Jade Sea and Sky.

This depth of understanding brought more realism and weight, and all Three Elements Technique gained benefit.

He wasn’t unfamiliar with other Grotto Heavens, but none were this mysterious.

Even the East Huan Sacred Valley didn’t touch him as much as this New Cave Heaven.

The East Huan Sacred Valley was mysterious because of the Donghuan Saint Technique and the obscure Divine Statue.

This New Cave Heaven, everywhere was filled with endless wonder, sparking his inspiration and providing continuous gains.

"Master..." Zhou Qingyu murmured.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "It’s a Spiritual Artifact, you cannot control it now."

"But it’s truly beautiful," Zhou Qingyu admired.

She was stunned by the beauty of this Divine Flower, finding it unbelievably magnificent.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, his left sleeve releasing the White Jade Rose again.

It floated before Zhou Qingyu.

Involuntarily, Zhou Qingyu stretched out her small hand, cautiously approaching.

But just as her small hand was about to touch it, the Divine Flower swiftly returned to Chu Zhiyuan’s sleeve.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, "Once you become a Venerable, then you’ll get it."

This is a Little Divine Flower, merely a clone of the true Void Divine Flower.
