Chapter 876: Chapter 879: The Birth of Treasure-seeking Vine_1

After taking the Heavenly Spirit Fruit, Lin Zhen’s condition was fully restored, and the Cloud-climbing Vine got a fresh supply of new blood.

The color quickly darkened to a deep red, and by the time Lin Zhen began to feel dizzy again, threatening to collapse, the Cloud-climbing Vine had finally absorbed everything!

All the sap that had leaked from it had been replaced by Lin Zhen’s blood, leading to a radical transformation.

The Immortal Spiritual Body blood of Lin Zhen increased the toughness of the Cloud-climbing Vine a hundredfold in an instant!

Its mass, weight, and density all saw significant increases.

When Lin Zhen used his Spiritual Power to manipulate the Cloud-climbing Vine, he found the burden on his Spiritual Power had become much heavier. This Cloud-climbing Vine was definitely more than ten times heavier than before!

...

The atomic structure inside the Vine was reforming again, its cells constantly dividing.

Lin Zhen’s mind felt murky and heavy, barely able to handle the new weight of the Cloud-climbing Vine.

“I can’t hold on anymore, I need to land and rest for a bit, otherwise, I might become the first Martial Artist to die from excessive blood loss.”

Just as Lin Zhen was about to descend, he suddenly felt a lighter burden on his Spiritual Power!

The weight of the Cloud-climbing Vine seemed to disappear, and the vine, which stretched across the sky for tens of thousands of meters, felt as light as a feather, without weight!

“Mastered it!”

Lin Zhen’s dim mind suddenly cleared, and his spirit was revitalized.

After two full rounds of blood infusion, the Cloud-climbing Vine had finally gained some spiritual attributes, succesfully recognizing its new master!

It’s very difficult for plant life to develop spirits as they are emotionless beings who usually only act according to their instincts. To develop a spiritual consciousness, they would need a great opportunity.

This Cloud-climbing Vine was truly fortunate. Inside the Dark Star, it absorbed Star Crystals, soaked up medicinal power and gained a certain amount of spirit. Plus with the blood replenishment from Lin Zhen, it awakened its intelligence and became a sentient life!

The Cloud-climbing Vine twisted between heaven and earth, a truly magnificent sight.

Just like an inconceivably large snake, it wrapped around Lin Zhen, not to strangle him, but to express closeness.

“Good fellow, you really have developed a certain level of intelligence!”

Very soon, Lin Zhen’s view was completely covered by the Cloud-climbing Vine, the intertwined loops blocking all light.

“It would be great if it could become smaller.”

Just as Lin Zhen was thinking about this, the Cloud-climbing Vine actually shrunk!

It visibly diminished quickly in size. In no time, this gigantic vine spanning tens of thousands of meters turned into a thick rope a dozen meters long!

Lin Zhen beckoned, and the Cloud-climbing Vine fell into his hand.

As he held the Cloud-climbing Vine, Lin Zhen was astounded to feel that its actual weight was almost comparable to a small asteroid!

At the very least, it was heavier than a planet the size of the moon.

Moreover, its flexibility and toughness exceeded Lin Zhen’s expectation. If he were to attempt another blood transfusion, cutting it open would not be an easy task.

“Master, congratulations. Your Cloud-climbing Vine has undergone its first evolution. Once your body has recovered, you can give the Vine another blood transfusion, turning it into a great treasure.”

“It can still evolve?” Lin Zhen excitedly asked.

“Yes, the Cloud-climbing Vine naturally possesses the ability to devour. Now that it has obtained your Black Hole Beast’s blood, it has undergone a radical change. Let me put it this way, the power level of this Vine corresponds directly to the level of your blood. It has limitless potential. However, for the next evolution, it will require blood with a stronger life force. That is to say, to upgrade it again, you will need to reach the Three Flowers Middle Stage.”

Lin Zhen nodded, “That’s not a problem, I will soon be able to reach the Three Flowers Middle Stage.”

“When you reach the Three Flowers Middle Stage, this Vine will possess the power of the Three Flowers Middle Stage. In actual fact, it has many functions, it can be used as a form of close-fitting armor and can even be used for attack.”

“It can do all that?”

“Yes, but its ultimate use is still treasure hunting, your Vine…..can now be called a Treasure-seeking Vine, you can try letting it go into the ground to search for treasures.”

Lin Zhen lifted his hand and the Treasure-seeking Vine coiled around his arm, resembling a dark red snake.

“Go on, have a good look under the ground, let’s see if you can actually bring me a surprise, so my two times blood feeding would not be wasted.”

The Treasure-seeking Vine seemed to understand Lin Zhen’s words, and with a twist of its serpentine body, it burrowed into the sandy soil of the ground.

Lin Zhen could clearly sense its presence, clearly seeing the Treasure-seeking Vine wriggling and becoming even larger underground!

The bigger the Vine, the better it could search for treasures.

“I wonder if my Spiritual Power can hitch a ride on it.”

Lin Zhen thought about this and then tried to do it, only to discover that he could indeed attach his Spiritual Power to it, as if he was traveling underground himself.

Unlike his own body, the Treasure-seeking Vine had an intense sense of smell. It could easily sense valuable items.

“Slap!”

As the treasure-seeking vine grew larger, a Divine Stone was drawn directly from the mud and clung to the vine.

“Wow! It actually works, we’ve found a Divine Stone!”

Lin Zhen’s eyes instantly lit up, but before he could express his surprise, a second Divine Stone also clung to it.

“Sure enough… the treasure-seeking vine can indeed find treasures in the dirt. Moreover, this isn’t even the Planet Graveyard or the Intersecting Continent, but just an ordinary continent location, and such a harvest has been made. I really found a treasure this time!”

The treasure-seeking vine was like a giant moving magnet, quickly drawing all metallic treasures towards it.

It wasn’t just the Divine Stones, there were various other strange metals that, like moths to a flame, crashed onto the treasure-seeking vine with a clattering sound.

When some of the metals hit the treasure-seeking vine, they were directly absorbed by it.

Lin Zhen was somewhat worried, “Will it absorb the Divine Stones?”

Chris said, “No, only a deity can absorb the power within a Divine Stone. If one day the treasure-seeking vine can directly devour Divine Stones, it means it has achieved a power equal to that of a deity.”

Lin Zhen was at a loss for words, it seemed this treasure-seeking vine will forever grow alongside him. He wondered if one day it would be able to devour and refine God Crystals?

“Ding~~!”

After a sound, Lin Zhen’s pupils widened.

At the back of the treasure-seeking vine, a short sword had attached itself.

“This is…..a Spirit Treasure!”

A middle-grade Spirit Treasure had been sucked in by the treasure-seeking vine.

“Master, there’s no need to be surprised. Finding treasure is the specialty of the treasure-seeking vine. Finding a middle-grade Spirit Treasure is nothing. You need to quickly let the treasure-seeking vine evolve. If it evolves again, its treasure-seeking ability will continue to improve, and it might surprise you.”

“I’m really looking forward to that.”

Having received a Spirit Treasure, Lin Zhen secretly calculated. If he could use the vine to find many Spirit Treasures, he could try selling these treasures to other Martial Artists in exchange for Divine Stones.

Having confirmed the abilities of the treasure-seeking vine, Lin Zhen stopped paying attention to it and started focusing on regaining his strength.

Although he had lost more than half of his blood, Lin Zhen was not an ordinary person. His Immortal Spiritual Body could recover rapidly. In the time he had been talking with Chris, approximately half of his blood had already been replaced.

Sitting beneath the ground, Lin Zhen awaited the full restoration of his power.

Once his power was recovered, he intended to immediately break through to the Three Flowers Middle Stage, at which point he could let the Cloud-climbing Vine evolve again.

*********

The sound of footsteps came from afar, and three members of the Ghost Clan came to the ground hill where Lin Zhen was located.

“Let’s rest a while!”

The three Ghost Clan warriors sat down and seemed to be eating something while chatting.

“Did you hear? There seems to be a power struggle on Qingqiu Mountain.”

“Hehe! I heard that it’s a women’s war; siblings fighting each other, all for the position of empress.”

“That’s none of our business, we can’t interfere. We should think about what treasures we can redeem this time.”

“Finding Divine Stones is really hard. We’ve been in the eye of the storm for almost a month, and we’ve got less than fifty Divine Stones. That’s not enough to exchange for good stuff.”

“Don’t worry, when we reach the Planet Graveyard, we’ll encounter the trash from the Ground Clan. If we kill a few of them, their Divine Stones will be ours. Searching for Divine Stones is nothing compared to killing enemies. That’s the fastest way to get rich.”

“You’re right, however, we are all at the God Realm Stage, we can only go to the Planet Graveyard. We don’t dare to go to places like the Intersecting Continent.”

Every word of the Ghost Clan’s conversation entered Lin Zhen’s ears without missing a beat.

Above Lin Zhen were three members of the Ghost Clan, all at the God Realm Stage, two at the middle stage and one at the later stage.

The late-stage ghost member had a similar level of strength to Mu En. Lin Zhen was not yet confident enough to face him alone.

“Chris, analyze the strength of these three members of the Ghost Clan.”

“Master, the strength of these three members of the Ghost Clan is quite impressive. One is a Green Annihilation Ghost and two are Impermanent Ghosts. The strength of both Black and White Impermanence Ghosts is at the Middle Stage of the God Realm, with a star power value of about 350 million, which is comparable to that of the Master. The Green Annihilation Ghost has a star power of 420 million and is difficult to deal with.”

“420 million star power… At this level, almost all have a Super Divine Body, equivalent to unleashing nearly 90% of their strength, or over 370 million star power. If it was one on one I could try, but there are two other Impermanent Ghosts here.”

“Does the Master want to kill these three members of the Ghost Clan?”

“Since I’ve encountered them, I should certainly try. Killing these three will also bring me three thousand points. If I kill a few more, I can upgrade to a three-star warrior.”

Lin Zhen took a deep breath, “Let me first advance to the Three Flowers Middle Stage, then I should be successful.”

Having made up his mind, Lin Zhen lifted his hand. The Light Annihilation transformed into a protective layer, wrapping him up. Then he took out a Yang Hua Pill and swallowed it.

His body had fully recovered and the medicinal properties had been completely dissolved by the Cloud-climbing Vine. It was time for a breakthrough!
