Chapter 415: Taking Stock of the Spoils
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Minghe did not know much about the Eternal Heart. Although he cast it himself, Minghe only had a smattering of knowledge about its powerful strength and mystery. He only could study it slowly later on. But now, his most important work was to recast the Indestructible Demon Body. Without it, he could not cast a complete Eternal Demon Body.
However, it was not troublesome to recast the Indestructible Demon Body. Minghe's Origin of the Mazinger and Blood of Essence were both in the heart. As long as there was enough energy, it was not difficult to recast the Indestructible Demon Body. Therefore, Heaven and Earth Taoist bought so many Treasures of Heaven and Earth to meet Minge's demand for recasting. After all, the Indestructible Demon Body was not a common body and it required a huge amount of energy.
Minghe's heart suddenly shook slightly. Soon afterward, it changed into a normal-sized human heart. Subsequently, the Treasures of Heaven and Earth in the main hall, Spiritual Air of Heaven and Earth, and Air of the Divine Law flooded into the Eternal Heart recklessly. As the heart's arteries, veins, muscles, and bones regenerated slowly, a fresh new body was generating.
50,000 years later, the steady stream of Spiritual Air of Heaven and Earth and Air of the Divine Law in the Tao-seeking Palace suddenly stopped. Then, everything calmed down. In the main hall, a new Minghe stood there, who was as valiant and aggressive as before but with a sense of unspeakable vicissitudes.
Having felt the newborn Indestructible Demon Body, Minghe was not very satisfied and even surprised because he had spent a lot of resources to recast the body over the past 50,000 years. Although the body was as powerful as one at the Late Stage of the Fate Realm, it still had some features of the Eternal Demon Body.
Obviously, it was beyond his expectation. Due to the Eternal Heart, the Indestructible Demon Body had some features of the Eternal Demon Body. Although the bodily strength could not be greatly enhanced, his body had more potential. One day, when he had a breakthrough of the Eternal Demon Body, it would save him a lot of energy.
Over these 50,000 years, Minghe had cast the Indestructible Demon Body while studying the Eternal Heart, which he still could not control. Its birth was an accident, which should not have happened, but it had existed there, so he would naturally study it.
During the 50,000 years, the Eternal Heart had devoured abundant Spiritual Air of Heaven and Earth and Air of the Divine Law and was recovering slowly. If the power of killing Hongjun was regarded as one unit, the Eternal Heart had recovered two units, which is to say that Minghe could use such a trump card twice.
Although the newborn Indestructible Demon Body only reached the Late Stage of the Fate Realm, its power was matched with that of a Creature whose body had reached the Peak of the Fate Realm. It was the strong point of a Rakshasa, which could make him do a skip-level challenge. Although it was merely a small grade, it had been an insurmountable chasm for most people.
Since his body had fully recovered, Minghe finally had some free time. Over the past hundreds of thousands of years, his State of Mind was high-strung, so it was also time to relax a bit. Although he packed away the things that Hongjun had left behind after killing him, he had not had any time to check them carefully. Right now, he did have some time.
After death, Hongjun only left two things. One was his Half Supreme Treasure of Chaos fairy sword, and the other was the Zixiao Palace. It was a huge palace, so Minghe predicted that all of Hongjun's collections had to be inside it. Minghe wondered how many treasures Hongjun had obtained since he entered the Battlefield of Gods and Demons.
He took out the miniature edition of the Zixiao Palace and put it on the ground. Minghe instantly became small and flew into it. After he flew to the main hall of the palace, he saw a sapling of the Star Tree of the Origin growing and absorbing the Power of Stars from the surrounding treasures. Minghe sensed that such a seedling was able to extradite the cosmic stars in the Void, so he planned to breed it.
The Star Tree of the Origin was not an ordinary Spiritual Root of Chaos. In terms of grade, it was a Highest Grade Spiritual Root of Chaos at least. If the sapling that Minghe acquired could be nurtured into the Star Tree of the Origin, Minghe would have two Highest Grade Spiritual Roots of Chaos. In other words, he would harvest double the original Fruits of Stars of the Origin.
They were only in the Medium Layer of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. Even if the Star Tree of the Origin was able to extradite the Power of Stars of the sun and the moon in the High Layer of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, the Power of Stars that it really could absorb was rare because they were two levels of world. Even so, it could yield treasures like the Fruits of Stars of the Origin. What if it was in the High Layer of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons which was full of the strong Power of Stars?
Minghe and Hongjun thought alike because neither of them focused too narrowly on the present. Despite needing a lot of resources and time to cultivate a sapling of the Star Tree of the Origin, once it succeeded, it would constantly yield the Highest Grade Treasures of Heaven and Earth. Through careful calculation, Minghe found that the investment was worthwhile.
After scanning the main hall, Minghe was very emotional. Originally, Hongjun imparted the Tao to 3,000 mortals of Untainted Land here. But now, Hongjun had been killed by him and the Zixiao Palace also belonged to him. Everything was fate. And since the Zixiao Palace was ownerless, Minghe would easily refine it.
After refinement, Minghe discovered that the Zixiao Palace was really amazing. Hongjun carved 3,000 Great Ways on it with the Way of Heaven, and then he integrated the Jade Butterfly of Fate into it after separating himself from the Way of Heaven. So to speak, although the Zixiao Palace was a Mid Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos, its power was on par with a Top Grade Spiritual Treasure of Chaos.
More surprisingly, each of the 3,000 Great Ways on the Zixiao Palace could lead one to the Fate Realm just as long as a man comprehended any one of them carefully. And that was why Minghe thought the Zixiao Palace was extraordinary.
Regrettably, although it was good, the Zixiao Palace was more suitable for Heaven and Earth Taoist than Minghe. If it was integrated into the World of Heaven and Earth, it would be very good for developing the Divine Laws of the World of Heaven and Earth. Most importantly, it could make the 3,000 Divine Laws develop into the Fate Realm, which was also a great trichiliocosm. In this way, the world would naturally become more balanced and stable.
Minghe was not interested in the Zixiao Palace, but he had considerable interest in the collections that were in the palace. After taking a step, he was inside Hongjun's treasure house, where all of Hongjun's belongings were stored, including seven Spiritual Treasures of Chaos, three sets of Flags of Formation, and countless other Treasures of Heaven and Earth.
Compared with Hongjun's Fated Chance, Minghe felt dwarfed. Unfortunately, Hongjun was tragically killed by Minghe. Now, his collections belonged to Minghe. The Spiritual Treasures of Chaos were not very important, because he did not lack any after all. He was most interested in the three sets of Flags of Formation, or, more accurately, the Twelve Earthly Branches Banner.
Among the three sets, two were common tactical formations, so Minghe was not interested in them. However, he liked the Twelve Earthly Branches Banner very much because he had endured a lot of difficulties when confronting it before. If not for his good fortune, good Fated Chance, and knowledge of the Law of Time, Minghe probably would have died.
After getting the banner, Minghe looked it over carefully. It was refined very delicately with rare materials, including treasures of time-property, which fit for the arrangement of the Twelve Earthly Branches Formation. Unfortunately, Hongjun was destroyed in the end. Minghe did not know if Hongjun had left some detailed recordings about the tactical formation. Without such recordings, Minghe only could depend on his previous observations in the formation and the 12 banners to predict the Twelve Earthly Branches Formation.
Having searched for half a day in the collection room, Minghe finally found the Jade Slip that recorded the Twelve Earthly Branches Formation. After reading the contents, Minghe felt lucky. If Hongjun could have exerted all the power of the Twelve Earthly Branches Formation, Minghe might have had no chance to leisurely check Hongjun's collections like he did now.
Hongjun did not cheat him in one aspect, which was that the Twelve Earthly Branches Formation was indeed the predecessor of the Twelve Divine Beings Killing Formation. However, the changes of the Twelve Earthly Branches Formation predicted by Hongjun were not all complete. There was one change that Hongjun could not predict. If he could have done so, Minghe might have already died.
Hongjun could not predict it but Minghe could. The most amazing change of the Twelve Earthly Branches Formation was to predict the Twelve Earthly Branches Mazinger, which required 12 drops of Blood of Essence of the Mazinger containing the Law of Time's integration into the Twelve Earthly Branches Banner. Now in the world, there were only a few Rakshasas. Up until this point, Minghe had never heard of other Rakshasas besides himself.
Not to mention the Blood of Essence of the Mazinger containing the Law of Time, which was such a harsh term, Hongjun naturally could not meet this requirement. However, Minghe was different. In the past, he could not do it. At present, since he had comprehended the Law of Time and he was a Rakshasa, it was a just a matter of time for him to cast the Twelve Earthly Branches Mazinger. After all, Blood of Essence was not ordinary stuff. If he consumed 12 drops at one time, Minghe would be unable to stand.
Such a thing he could only do slowly. He did not plan to go out during this period anyway. With so many resources, he could do everything that he wanted to do, including cultivation, refining weapons, and refining formations. Most importantly, Minghe needed to spend time studying his Eternal Heart and comprehending the Law of Time. After all, he had just comprehended the Law of Time to the Early Stage of the Fate Realm, which was a Small Realm away from the Law of Blood and Law of Spiritual Beings.
