Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 1179 - 1176: Spiritual Spring Source

Meanwhile, Li Chen sat upright in the room, using his Divine Sense to explore the spring on Spiritual Spring Mountain.

The creek water was misty and surrounded by clouds, with peach trees planted on both banks. The peach blossoms were in full bloom, petals falling like a fairyland in the Human World.

Moreover, Li Chen keenly sensed that the spiritual power in this creek water was extremely rich, surpassing the outside world by several times, maybe even more.

Furthermore, the closer you get to the spring at the mountain’s summit against the current, the more abundant the spiritual power becomes, almost reaching tenfold the amount at the base of the mountain, perhaps more.

This means practicing here for one day is equivalent to practicing ten days in the outside world.

For others, ten times the speed might be an irresistible temptation.

But to Li Chen, it was a dispensable chicken rib.

His Spiritual Sense continued to flow upstream, exploring the spring.

Suddenly, a defense restriction blocked Li Chen’s Spiritual Sense.

This defense restriction was very strong; even a powerhouse at the level of Red Sun Marquis would find it tough to forcibly break in.

However, in front of Li Chen, it was like a child’s sand castle, merely a showpiece.

With a slight maneuver, he effortlessly passed through this layer of defense restriction guarding the spring.

Passing through the restriction, he entered the mountain body.

Initially entering, the passage was very narrow, with a diameter of half a foot. The Spiritual Creek sang a joyful chant, rushing down the mountain gorge.

Li Chen’s Spiritual Sense continued upwards, passing through the long passage.

The passage’s end was a wall.

However, this wall was not made of boulder.

It was a Water Curtain Barrier formed by the Spiritual Spring!

Upon seeing this, Li Chen transformed into a carp, swaying his tail in mid-air, and leaped into the water curtain, effortlessly passing through.

Beyond the water curtain barrier, even Li Chen couldn’t help but be surprised.

It was a boundless plain, planted with all sorts of unusual flowers and plants. The blue flowers and red fruits contrasted beautifully, stunningly breathtaking. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

The most fascinating part was the central fountain.

Specifically, it was the crystal-clear water droplet atop the fountain, surrounded by dazzling immortal light, clearly no ordinary thing.

According to Li Chen’s experience, this should be a top-grade spiritual artifact.

Additionally, Li Chen sensed that this Water Spirit Pearl wasn’t an independent entity but part of a Magical Treasure.

If the other Spiritual Pearls could be gathered, the rank of this Magical Treasure might reach Immortal Artifact level.

Thinking about Immortal Artifacts, even Li Chen couldn’t help but feel a heart-pounding excitement.

Bear in mind, even his Seven-star Dragon Abyss, blessed with Dragon Soul, was merely a top-grade spiritual artifact, not even a quasi-immortal artifact.

If an Immortal Artifact was in hand, he could completely contend with a genuine Divinity Transformation Expert!

Thinking of this, Li Chen restrained his inner excitement, planning to first pocket this Water Spirit Pearl.

Just then, the outside suddenly burst with noise.

Strange, what’s going on? Could it be that my attempt to claim the Water Spirit Pearl has been discovered?

No way, I was very discreet. Unless the other party has reached Nascent Soul Perfection Realm, they can’t possibly detect any anomaly here.

No matter, let’s take this Water Spirit Pearl first!

Just then, Wuo Gang and others arrived at Li Chen’s dwelling.

He had just been instructed by Ji Hongguang to defeat Li Chen under the pretext of sparring.

If possible, directly kill him; Ji Hongguang would take responsibility for all consequences.

For this, Ji Hongguang even gave him five hundred top-grade Spirit Stones.

Though Wuo Gang didn’t understand why Ji Hongguang insisted on wanting Li Chen dead, he gladly accepted the task due to the value of five hundred top-grade Spirit Stones.

Just a loose cultivator, crushing him was easier than crushing an ant. These five hundred top-grade Spirit Stones were like free gifts. Plus, he got to owe Ji Hongguang a favor, why not?

"Senior Brother Wuo Gang, that loose cultivator named Li Chen lives here!"

An Outer Disciple, full of ingratiating smiles, eagerly led the way for Wuo Gang.

Wuo Gang was among the top ten in this cohort of disciples. In the eyes of these Outer Disciples, he was an unattainable god.

Wuo Gang, looking at this barren place, suddenly showed full disdain. He completely forgot that he had once emerged from here himself.

"Go knock on the door, see if that loose cultivator Li Chen is inside the room?"

The disciple acknowledged and hurriedly went to knock on the door.

At that moment, a flash of brilliance emerged in the room.

Li Chen’s Divine Soul returned, and he had a pebble-sized, crystal-clear pearl in his hand.

It was precisely the Water Spirit Pearl!

"Finally got it!"

Li Chen said with a satisfied smile, murmuring to himself.

Just then, a very jarring noise came from outside.

"Fellow Taoist Li Chen, are you in the room?"

Li Chen frowned slightly, gracefully got up, and walked to the door.

Opening the door, he saw Wuo Gang and a group of disciples blocking the entrance.

"I wondered who it was, turns out it’s you, Wuo Gang, need anything?"

Seeing Li Chen’s extremely arrogant attitude and disdainful words, Wuo Gang immediately became furious.

However, upholding the pride of a sect disciple, he forcibly suppressed the anger within.

"Fellow Taoist Li Chen, I heard from Junior Sister Ling’er that you are skillful. I am a martial fanatic, and came to learn your prowess, hoping for your guidance!"

Li Chen glanced at Wuo Gang disdainfully.

He had just advanced to the Golden Core Late Stage, compared to his peers, his cultivation was not weak.

Unfortunately, to Li Chen, it was entirely insignificant, akin to an ant.

The idea of such a dull sparring didn’t interest him at all.

It was like a child who just learned to walk, wanting to challenge a Muay Thai champion, plainly laughable.

Wuo Gang saw Li Chen’s silence and assumed he was afraid, so he provocatively spoke.

"What, scared, don’t dare spar with me?"

Li Chen shook his head and said expressionlessly, "No!"

Wuo Gang, surprised, eagerly asked, "What is it then?"

Li Chen pointed at Wuo Gang and said slowly, "You, don’t, qualify!"

Upon hearing such arrogant words, Wuo Gang immediately grew angry and embarrassed, his previously handsome face flushing beetroot.

"You said I don’t qualify to spar with you?"

Li Chen glanced at Wuo Gang, then looked around at the others, coldly snorting.

Immediately, he raised a middle finger, waved it back and forth, facing everyone’s gaze.

"Don’t misunderstand, my point isn’t just that you don’t qualify, but your entire Spiritual Spring Sect doesn’t qualify!"
