The Spiritual Attainment of Minghe-Chapter 362: Departure
Chapter 362: Departure
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
But it was not urgent. Minghe had not found any traces of outsiders in the surroundings. Currently, the major threat they faced was still the Ominous Beasts of Chaos in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons. However, the Battlefield of Gods and Demons was large enough, so even if there were countless Ominous Beasts of Chaos and they were separated, it would not be crowded.
Several months later, numerous palaces and houses were erected in the valley. The Human Tribe and Asura Tribe lived there. At this time, the Three Ancestors of the Human Tribe led almost a million elites in the Human Tribe. All the rest of them were from the Asura Tribe. Originally, Minghe only brought out millions of Asura tribesmen. Over the years, the Asura tribesmen multiplied in the World of Heaven and Earth. Now, they had almost six million people.
However, Asura tribesmen multiplied much slower than Humans did. Although the number of Asura tribesmen was several times greater than what the Human Tribe had, the numbers of the Human Tribe would surpass the Asura Tribe's after several hundred years, and that was the awesome power of the Human Tribe. The Human Tribe increased their strength based on quantity, while the Asura's depended on quality. The two could not be compared.
Within a few months, under the lead of Zhenyuanzi, Cangjie, and the Three Ancestors of the Human Tribe, the Human Tribe began to clear out the nearby Ominous Beasts of Chaos. The Asura Tribe was led by Liu Er, Kong Xuan, Black Tortoise, and Dipamkara. They also started to kill the nearby Ominous Beasts of Chaos. Along the way, they collected all the corpses of the Ominous Beasts of Chaos, the Origin of Chaos, various Spiritual Medicines, and minerals.
Many resources would be consumed for cultivation or refinement of weapons and elixir. Now, millions of people lived in the valley, so they needed a huge amount of resources. Fortunately, the Spiritual Air between Heaven and Earth in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons was very intense, so they did not need to worry about the necessary Spiritual Air for cultivation, not to mention that Spiritual Air of Heaven and Earth was stronger than primordial Spiritual Air.
In the valley, they could always feel the momentum emanating from the breakthrough of cultivation. The Spiritual Air of Heaven and Earth in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons was very special. It was beneficial for an expert of the Origin or a Rakshasa, let alone those people who had not actualized the Origin. Moreover, there was the subtle vital force of the Divine Law between Heaven and Earth. It was well-reasoned that breakthroughs in cultivation would be made. The opposite situation would have been strange. After all, they were the elites elected from both the Human and Asura tribes.
Looking at those men growing steadily, Minghe felt assured. For the moment, nothing in the surroundings could threaten their existence. As long as there was no large-scale beast tide of Chaos, they should be safe. Thus, Minghe planned to leave. Although the Origin of Chaos was beneficial for him, its efficacy naturally had weakened a lot due to his current realm.
The Battlefield of Gods and Demons was a treasured place for him. Even though it was dangerous there, Minghe was fearless. The truly strong ones were totally fearless. Originally, Minghe was waiting for Liu Er and the others so he could train a group of helpers for any unexpected needs. Certainly, it was not the main reason. He mainly worried about their safety because the Battlefield of Gods and Demons was full of dangers.
Since they had settled down and had a lot of resources for cultivation, Minghe could rest assured. At present, Liu Er, Zhenyuanzi, and the others were not very helpful to Minghe. Unless they could grow up to be as strong as Laozi or Tongtian, they could do little help to him.
Minghe entered the Battlefield of Gods and Demons in order to find a Fated Chance to make him strong. Naturally, he could not stay right there. Now, everything had been well-arranged, so he should leave. However, before departure, Minghe summoned Liu Er, Zhenyuanzi, and seven others, all having reached the Realm of the Origin. Although he was going to leave, he still needed to make some things clear.
The 10 men sat cross-legged. Minghe glanced at them and said, "I called you here to tell you one thing... that I'm leaving." All those present suddenly looked at each other in speechless despair. They never thought that Minghe would leave so soon. In their opinions, Minghe was their backbone, after all.
Minghe had expected their reaction and continued to say, "Since you've adapted to this place, you need to continue to develop steadily, improve cultivation, train experts of the Origin, and expand in every direction to get more resources. Until you're strong enough to go into the Late Stage of the Origin and Peak of the Origin, you can go further into the heartland of the Battlefield of Gods and Demons to seek Fated Chances."
They realized that Minghe had decided to leave. Meanwhile, they also understood that it was not very helpful for Minghe to stay here, based on his current cultivation. Moreover, Minghe was not their babysitter. If they were protected by Minghe all the time, their will would be ground down and they would have limited success in the future.
Liu Er looked at Minghe as the smile on his face disappeared. He was a little solemn and said, "Master, please rest assured. I and my junior brothers will practice hard to live up to your expectations." Kong Xuan and two others also nodded. They understood that Minghe could not always protect them. Meanwhile, they were unwilling to be put under Minghe's protection.
Minghe nodded after hearing that, saying, "Well, you must be careful. In the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, besides Ominous Beasts of Chaos, you also need to beware of people from other worlds. Now, experts of the Origin from many worlds in the Chaos are breaking into the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, so it's inevitable that you will fight with them. You should not be too merciful or indecisive."
They naturally understood exactly what Minghe meant. So many people entered the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, and even though it was sufficiently large, they could still meet people from other worlds someday. Although they did not know what kind of Fated Chances and how many Fated Chances there were in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, it might be well to have one less competitor. A feast of killing was destined ever since they entered the Battlefield of Gods and Demons.
Minghe stretched out his hands and a rustic wooden box appeared on his palm. With supernatural power, he sent it in the front of Liu Er, saying, "Liu Er, I prepared one thing for you. If you encounter mortal danger, you can open it. It can only be used once. Don't use it unless it's an emergency."
Upon hearing that, Liu Er took the box and nodded seriously. Then, Minghe turned to Kong Xuan and said, "Kong Xuan, since you've mastered the Flag of Five Elements arranged outside, I give it to you. You can make the best of the Primordial Five Elements Formation. In doing so, it can also increase your strength."
In the end, Minghe said to the others that were not his disciples, "My Fellow Taoists, it's dangerous in the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, and there are countless Ominous Beasts of Chaos in the Origin. Although all your Spiritual Treasures are Primordial Spiritual Treasures, some of them can't be used now. I have a method to refine weapons, thus you can refine Primordial Supreme Treasures. Now I give it to you. I hope it can be helpful."
Needless to say, Liu Er and the others had earlier learned the method. Their Magic Weapons were refined by themselves and had become Primordial Supreme Treasures. However, Zhenyuanzi and the others were startled upon hearing the method to refine Primordial Supreme Treasures. Minghe really did not care what he said. After all, the richest of Zhenyuanzi's most powerful Magic Weapons was only a Primordial Spiritual Treasure.
With that, Minghe waved his hands and sent nine Jade Slips to the nine men. The method to refine weapons of Primordial Supreme Treasures was written on the Jade Slip. But, there was one thing that Minghe did not mention. The Jade Slips that he sent to Liu Er, Kong Xuan, Black Tortoise, and Dipamkara were special. Inside the Jade Slips, he sealed the method to refine weapons of Spiritual Treasures of Chaos predicted by him.
Certainly, Liu Er and the three others could not see that because Minghe had sealed the four Jade Slips. Unless the four men reached the Peak of the Realm of the Origin, the seals would not be initiated. Only when they reached that realm would they be qualified to refine Spiritual Treasures of Chaos. Of course, the precondition was that they had already been able to refine Primordial Supreme Treasures of the Highest Grade.
As for Zhenyuanzi and the others, Minghe did not give them the method to refine weapons of Spiritual Treasures of Chaos. Although they had good relations with him, it was impossible for Minghe to be impartial. At present, it was enough for them to refine weapons of Primordial Supreme Treasures. As for whether he would impart the method to refine weapons of Spiritual Treasures of Chaos, that was another problem for another time. As distance tests a horse's strength, so time reveals a person's heart. Minghe also wanted to test their temperament.
With the passage of time, Zhenyuanzi and the others would become strong. Even so, now it was difficult to ensure that they would be loyal all the time. Houtu was a good example. Although he did not want to worry about Houtu's behavior, Minghe would not be willing to create a person that was the same as Houtu.
After receiving Minghe's method to refine weapons, Zhenyuanzi and the others were very excited. They respectively expressed their gratitude to Minghe. Minghe's method to refine weapons was very special. Even without powerful Spiritual Treasures like the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, they could refine Primordial Spiritual Treasures and Primordial Supreme Treasures. Moreover, they could also refine their own Primordial Spiritual Treasures once again, and promote them to Primordial Supreme Treasures. It was rare and commendable.
Surely, Minghe's method to refine weapons was also limited. For example, Zhenyuanzi practiced the Great Way of Earth. Even if they mastered Minghe's Law of Refining Tools, the Spiritual Treasures he could refine were all of the earth nature. If he wanted to refine Magic Weapons of other natures, he had to comprehend other laws. In contrast to the refinement of Primordial Supreme Treasures, this limit was insignificant.
Minghe did everything that he should have done. It was time to leave. After leaving the valley, Minghe looked back with some expectation. He did not know when he would see them again. He hoped that they would not disappoint him. He erased his sadness and gradually went off to the distance without leaving a trace.
