Chapter 417 - 417 All Breakthrough
It had attempted to break the ancient tree of life’s branch earlier but it simply could not do it. The branch was truly too tough.
No matter how much strength it gathered in its hand, it could not break the thinnest branch.
Yet, Qin Chen easily broke off a branch with one hand.
As for the place where the ancient tree of life’s branch had been broken by Qin Chen, it had already completely healed. It looked as if it had never been broken before, and a small new branch had even grown out.
This was the recovery brought about by the tree’s powerful life force.
If Qin Chen had such a terrifying life force, no matter how weak he was, no one would be able to kill him.
At this moment, Qin Chen was looking at the old wyrm. The latter’s eyes were filled with deep resentment. It did not know how Qin Chen, who was a few levels lower than him, could break off the branch.
Qin Chen immediately smiled and activated the fate heavenly Dao seed in his body again. At this moment, he once again captured the place where the Great Path of life was on the branches.
Qin Chen connected the fate heavenly Dao seed to the spot that linked the branches with the richest Great Path of life. Then, he grabbed a branch of the ancient tree of life and broke it off ruthlessly. Upon exerting his full strength, he succeeded.
Qin Chen threw the branch to the old wyrm.
The other party needed the branch of the ancient tree of life very much. At this moment, he naturally had to help the other party. Otherwise, with the old wyrm’s strength alone, it would probably not be able to get the branch or leaf of the ancient tree of life even if it spent its entire life here.
After that, Qin Chen also patiently removed the leaves for the old wyrm.
In this way, it would be easier for the old wyrm to refine the leaves and it could comprehend the Great Path of heaven and earth on the ancient tree of life. If it refined the branch as well, its vitality would become stronger.
The old wyrm might be able to use this as a springboard to break through the final step of transforming into a dragon and become one of the divine beasts of the true dragon race.
After obtaining the leaves and the branch, the old wyrm transformed into a middle-aged man and cupped its hands at Qin Chen.
With this branch and the leaves, it was confident enough to break through. Then, it left.
Even if Qin Chen were to give it some more branches and leaves of the ancient tree of life, they would be useless to it.
This was because these things were a one-time opportunity. As a result, it was useless for one to obtain more parts of the ancient tree of life.
After the old wyrm left the light curtain, it transformed back into a huge wyrm and broke through the crack in the void secret realm, heading to the ancient planet and finding a place to cultivate in seclusion.
Qin Chen continued to break branches of the ancient tree of life. This was a precious treasure, so how could he not cherish such an opportunity?
He took away as many as he could. With this in mind, Qin Chen broke off many branches and leaves of the ancient tree of life. These branches and leaves were nothing to the huge trunk of the ancient tree of life.
Qin Chen finally stopped after getting a bundle of branches that were half the height of a man.
It was not because he had finally given up and did not want to break more, but that the ancient tree of life seemed to have its own consciousness and was extremely resistant. It had actually broken the connection between the Great Path of life and Qin Chen.
As such, Qin Chen could no longer break the ancient tree of life’s branches.
With so many branches from the ancient tree of life, Qin Chen could already use them to break through to the God Realm.
He was very satisfied. Rather, even after he broke through to the God Realm, there would probably be many more branches of the ancient tree of life left. By then, he would be able to continue to raise his cultivation prowess.
After that, Qin Chen carried the bundle of branches from the ancient tree of life on his back. He had also gathered quite a lot of the ancient tree of life’s leaves.
Naturally, he gave a handful of leaves to Holy Maiden Mu Xue, then another handful to Yuji. In the end, when he saw the big scorpion’s longing eyes, Qin Chen gave him an extra portion of the leaves.
One should know that these were the leaves of the ancient tree of life. It was basically impossible to find in the outside world. If word of this were to spread, there would probably be quasi-emperor-realm experts coming to snatch this treasure.
This was because the ancient tree of life’s branches and leaves were extremely helpful to them. It could make them even more powerful.
Therefore, Qin Chen kept all the leaves and branches in his storage ring. He would not take them out so carelessly. After all, if he was discovered by even one person, he would be in deep trouble. Once the news was leaked, he would be targeted by many before the chaos even arrived.
It was best not to take these treasures out unless they were refining it. That being said, in this Tranquil Land, Qin Chen and the others could take them out at will. After all, there were no living creatures here.
They had not expected to find traces of the ancient tree of life here. Currently, they had even managed to take away many of the ancient tree of life’s branches and leaves.
Qin Chen felt that he had become extremely confident.
He even thought of a scene in his mind. Just by taking out a leaf from the ancient tree of life, countless quasi-emperors would fight to get it. If he asked them to work for him, they would flock to him.
Then, Qin Chen shook his head. Such a fantasy was simply unrealistic. This was because if those quasi-emperor-realm experts knew that he had the leaves of the ancient tree of life, they would rob him of everything instead.
Qin Chen was too weak, and he did not have a faction nor a big shot behind him to support him. As such, he would likely be targeted by many experts.
At this moment, Qin Chen and the others began to break through crazily. They began to cultivate in the void secret realm.
Qin Chen stuffed a handful of leaves into his mouth and swallowed them. He then wrapped the leaves of the ancient tree of life with his divine power and began to refine them.
Such wealth would definitely shock the quasi-emperors in the outside world and make their hearts ache.
Those were the leaves of the ancient tree of life! It was just too shocking to refine the leaves like a nouveau riche. They did not even dare to think about it.
After Qin Chen refined a handful of leaves, he felt as if his body was wrapped in a powerful life force. Such a terrifying life force made his body stronger.
At the same time, his cultivation prowess was also constantly advancing. In just a moment, the changes brought by this terrifying life force were enough to match Qin Chen’s years of bitter cultivation.
