An Ordinary Path to Immortality

Watching the leaves fall to the ground, the pain from before reappeared. This time, the pain only existed in the Dantian, and did not spread to the whole body like before.

And this time, the feeling was even stronger, making Fang Ping feel as if his golden elixir was being torn apart by someone. He was sweating profusely in an instant, and even the speed of absorbing demonic energy slowed down a bit.

When the pain disappeared, Fang Ping was shocked to find that in his golden elixir filled with chaotic energy, a spherical space had appeared at some point.

The sacred tree also disappeared from his Dantian space and appeared in the sphere.

"What's going on? Is this the change brought about by the leaves just now?"

The sphere and the golden elixir were close together, and did not float around, as if they were stuck together.

The sphere did not look big when it was in contact with the golden elixir, and was even smaller than the size of the sacred tree before.

Fang Ping's consciousness fell on the sphere, and he was surprised to find that the sphere was actually a world of its own, and its interior looked much larger than when it was outside.

Inside the sphere, a small tree that can already be seen as a sapling stood quietly, as if it was a sapling grown from the sphere and the golden elixir.

Suddenly Fang Ping's eyes suddenly opened: "Something is wrong, where are the roots?"

Before, he felt that the sphere and the sacred tree were strange, and now he finally found the problem.

In the sphere, he only saw the sapling of the sacred tree, but did not find the roots.

With something in mind, he checked his whole body in an instant and soon found something abnormal.

There was a faint space fluctuation at the point where the bottom of the sphere touched the golden elixir.

His mind entered it and found that the source of the space fluctuation was actually a space hole.

Above the hole was the sphere where Fang Ping's golden elixir and the sacred tree were located. The roots of the sacred tree took root in the hole and entered the deep, dark and mysterious chaotic space.

Strands of chaotic energy were sent into the body of the sacred tree along with the roots of the sacred tree, for the sacred tree to absorb and grow.

Fang Ping tried to control the chaotic energy in his dantian and send it into the sacred tree space.

As a result, the chaotic energy entered without any hindrance, and was then absorbed by the sacred tree bit by bit.

When Fang Ping stopped inputting chaotic energy, and the chaotic energy in the sacred tree space was completely absorbed, the sacred tree returned to calm, and would not actively absorb the chaotic energy in Fang Ping's golden elixir.

He tried to communicate with the sacred tree again, and found that the sacred tree was still the same as before, and did not lose contact with Fang Ping because it had a space belonging to it.

Under Fang Ping's control, the sacred mulberry fire in the sacred tree swayed gently, and wisps of pure chaotic energy emanated from the sacred tree, and left the sacred tree space and entered the dantian, merging with Fang Ping's own chaotic energy to become a part of Fang Ping's cultivation.

"Very good, very good, it's just that there is a small sacred tree space in the golden elixir, and it has no adverse effect on me."

Not only did it have no adverse effect, the sacred tree could also absorb the chaotic energy in the chaotic space to feed it back to him.

After confirming that the existence of the sacred tree had no effect on his golden elixir, he flattened his hand and turned it over, and a green flame appeared in his palm.

The Divine Mulberry Fire remained the same, and did not change because of the integration into the Divine Tree and the existence of the Divine Tree Space. It could still be activated by it like other spiritual fires.

In order to verify what he thought, Fang Ping directly took out a magic furnace and some low-level spiritual medicines and herbs to start refining the elixir.

Soon after, with the fragrant smell of medicine, Fang Ping was finally able to confirm that the Divine Mulberry Fire was not affected in any way and could not only be summoned by him at will.

Even if the Divine Mulberry Fire was used as the elixir fire to refine the elixir, there would be no problem.

The Divine Tree and the Divine Tree Space without the Divine Mulberry Fire could still exist normally, and there was no abnormality.

There was also the hole connecting his golden elixir and the chaotic space.

Fang Ping didn't know how it appeared. A space hole seemed to exist only to allow the roots of the Divine Tree to enter the chaotic space.

It was not as unstable as other holes, nor did it have the powerful destructive power of other space cracks.

It existed in Fang Ping's body, but there was no dangerous aura, and it did not cause any damage to Fang Ping's body.

It was as if it had always been fixed here.

At least with Fang Ping's understanding of the rules of space, it is definitely impossible to open such a hole in a short time.

After some inspections and confirming that there is no danger, Fang Ping began to refine the chaotic aura again and send it into the divine tree space to help the divine tree grow.

Although he knew that even without his help, the divine tree rooted in the chaotic void could be self-sufficient by absorbing chaotic energy.

But he really wanted to see what kind of changes and abilities the third pair of leaves could bring him.

It is said that things never happen more than three times. Even the dead leaves that fell when the spiritual roots of heaven and earth such as the Fusang divine tree were born could not bring benefits to Fang Ping continuously.

After the third pair of leaves, the growth of the divine tree will basically be on the right track, and no more leaves will fall. Even if there are, they can only be ordinary leaves, which at most contain certain characteristics of the divine tree. If used for alchemy and refining, it is a good treasure.

Soon after absorbing a large amount of chaotic energy again, the fourth pair of leaves began to grow continuously and became two forked branches.

This also marked the official end of the initial period of the divine tree.

The third pair of leaves under the tree branch also turned yellow and then slowly fell off.

Watching the leaves falling bit by bit, Fang Ping finally suppressed his greed and did not collect the leaves to refine magic weapons, but let the leaves fall.

The familiar pain came from the golden elixir again, and Fang Ping gritted his teeth and endured it.

This time the pain was even more intense, his body was shaking, sweating profusely, and he almost fainted several times.

After finally enduring the pain and calming down, Fang Ping immediately couldn't wait to check his body changes.

The result was beyond his expectations. After repeated checks, he did not find any abnormalities in his body. His body, golden elixir, meridians, and soul were the same as usual, without any changes.

However, when Fang Ping tried to absorb the chaotic energy in the chaotic void, Fang Ping finally discovered what the third ability of the sacred tree was.

Before, when he needed a lot of chaotic energy, he would open up space cracks and absorb the chaotic energy in the chaotic void through his own consciousness and the energy of the chaotic body to refine it.

But now, when he tried to absorb energy from the chaotic void again, he only felt the sacred tree swaying, and waves of chaotic energy that were several times denser than before were sent directly into Fang Ping's golden elixir from the roots of the sacred tree through the sacred tree.

Although this energy had not been refined, with Fang Ping's chaotic body and the ability of the chaotic golden elixir, he only needed a simple circulation of the heavens to refine the chaotic energy.
