Capítulo 1080: Chapter 1070: The Miraculous Effects of the Path Enlightenment Flower

On the White Bone Plain, Chen Hai’s figure moved like lightning, running all the way.

Just as Emperor Pan Ancestor and Haotian were in the thick of battle, he seized the moment they were distracted to quickly slip away from that region.

At the start, to cover the sound his sprinting produced, he proceeded cautiously, without fully unleashing his speed.

Only later, when Emperor Pan Ancestor and Haotian completely vanished from his sight, did he gradually pick up speed.

Previously, with only one path leading forward, he just needed to keep going without worrying about getting lost.

But now, the White Bone Plain seemed endlessly vast.

Without stopping, Chen Hai had been running for several two-hour periods, looking around at the mountains of bones all around him. He could only ascertain he was still on the White Bone Plain, yet he had no idea exactly where he was positioned anymore!

“Having run this far already, Emperor Pan Ancestor and Haotian shouldn’t be able to track me here!”

“Lu Yingtian, Ancestor Kugu, and the others have never shown up; where on earth could those guys have fled to?”

“Wandering alone in this white-boned land with no one to talk to is somewhat dull, but if something happens, I don’t need to worry about anyone else, which is quite convenient!”

…

Near a massive skeleton, Chen Hai stopped and sighed softly, speaking to himself.

Behind him, the skeleton stood over a hundred zhang tall.

From the skeletal structure, it bore a resemblance to humankind, except it had an extra tailbone. The typical human race could not possibly have such a large frame.

Chen Hai knew little about the races that remained from ancient times.

Despite observing the skeleton for a long while, he couldn’t identify which ancient race it belonged to!

His interest in the skeleton’s background was merely out of curiosity; understanding its origins wasn’t important to him at all.

After scanning the vicinity and confirming the skeleton behind him was the largest in the area, he entered the skull.

Its hollow eye sockets, aside from being composed of bone, were no different from a regular cave.

Being merely the size of a normal person, Chen Hai was insignificant compared to the socket; even hundreds of someone his size could fit within a single socket.

After laying down a layer of restriction to fully conceal his tracks, Chen Hai found a relatively flat spot, sat cross-legged, and stopped wandering around the White Bone Plain. His purpose was simple: to refine the Path Enlightenment Flower and elevate his strength as much as possible.

After all, he could manage to be invincible at the Quasi-Saint level, but facing a Primordial Chaos Daluo, he remained helpless.

Since Emperor Pan Ancestor had appeared in the Land of Slumber, it was certain that many other Primordial Chaos Daluo level experts had entered.

If he were to encounter someone as powerful as the Divine Ancestor Douzhan, and they demanded he hand over the Path Enlightenment Flower, he would have no choice but to accept his fate.

Thus, while a divine artifact was precious, only by completely refining it into his own strength could the Path Enlightenment Flower truly belong to Chen Hai.

Before meeting Tie Feng, he knew nothing about the Path Enlightenment Flower.

Once the artifact was in his possession, he only gained a slight understanding of it through conversations with Lu Yingtian, Ancestor Kugu, and others.

Given idle time, he would have certainly inquired about every aspect of the Path Enlightenment Flower.

Unfortunately, after acquiring the Path Enlightenment Flower, he first quarreled with the Seven Killings Demon Lord and then dealt with Haotian bursting from underground as the Three Realms Supreme.

With great effort, after dragging Emperor Pan Ancestor into battle with Haotian, Chen Hai managed to slip away, but Lu Yingtian, Ancestor Kugu, and others had already escaped without a trace.

In the current situation, he had no one to ask about the Path Enlightenment Flower.

“I can’t afford the time to understand the true method of refining the Path Enlightenment Flower before using it.”

“With Emperor Pan Ancestor, a Primordial Chaos Daluo, already appearing in the Land of Slumber, it’s possible the Divine Ancestor Douzhan has also entered.”

“In his presence, I currently have no means of resistance.”

“If the news of me possessing the Path Enlightenment Flower reaches him, I would not be able to keep it.”

“Since that’s the case, I might as well use the Path Enlightenment Flower first!”

“I don’t know the true method of refining the Path Enlightenment Flower, but it doesn’t matter; I have the Gluttony Law and can swallow it directly.”

“Even though this method might not allow me to fully utilize the flower’s potential, it’s better than having it taken by those Primordial Chaos Daluo!”

…

With a flip of his hand, the Path Enlightenment Flower, which he had previously stowed, reappeared in Chen Hai’s grasp.

After examining this divine flower for a long time, he gritted his teeth, opened his mouth wide, and stuffed it inside.

Afraid of affecting its efficacy, he didn’t chew it but swallowed it whole like a jujube.

The next moment, a potent cooling sensation surged to his mind.

His vision cleared, and the once-hazy skies of the Land of Slumber, now seemed entirely different in his eyes.

Multicolored and various-sized lines filled every inch of the surrounding space.

When Chen Hai’s consciousness tried to connect with the nearest pale line, ‘poof’— in an instant, countless Mysterious truths related to death flooded his mind.

“Do these lines represent the different laws between heaven and earth?”

“Before, the Power of Laws was only comprehensible but indescribable. After ingesting the Path Enlightenment Flower, they appear as lines right in front of me?”

“With the flower aiding cultivation, it’s hard to say if one can fully achieve the Primordial Chaos stride but just using it to comprehend the Heaven and Earth Law greatly increases the chances of thoroughly understanding a certain law!”

“The flower possesses such divine efficacy; no wonder it is deemed a divine artifact by the world!”

…

With a better understanding of the flower’s divine effects, Chen Hai felt elated.

The death law represented by the pale line he first contacted, though potent, wasn’t highly useful to him.

Greed, Gluttony, Reproduction…

Laws related to these were Chen Hai’s true targets.

How long the Path Enlightenment Flower’s divine effect would last, he was unsure.

To save as much time as possible, he skipped the law lines he couldn’t use and began searching directly for the ones he needed.
