Chapter 160: Giant Octopus

Chapter 159

How did it feel to have all thirty-six official deities take action?

Chen Jingzhai had no idea before, but now he had finally experienced it.

It was definitely satisfying to watch official deities and subordinate deities absorbing the essence power from the outside with all their strength.

Their speed alone was beyond imagination, and it was outrageously efficient.

It was like feeling instant relief after all limitations had been lifted.

But aside from the feeling of satisfaction, Chen Jingzhai also felt some pressure.

This pressure came from the body’s thirst for essence power.

His body needed more purified essence power, but even the spirit pearls were unable to absorb or use it.

Now, in the depth of the ocean, he had obtained pure frigid essence power.

Like a child who was starving, he ate it up greedily.

But what about in the future?

Chen Jingzhai was worried because he did not know what terrifying demand he would face in the future.

This kind of concern would easily make him feel anxious, but Chen Jingzhai did not want to miss this opportunity.

Involuntarily, he went deeper and deeper into the ocean.

Like a greedy child who needed more and more sustenance.

The divine mind that was enhanced by the divine stone could sense the purity of the essence power within the water.

Guided by this feeling, he rushed towards an even purer frigid essence power.

However, the pressure from the deep ocean did not make him feel any discomfort.

The vast pressure of the deep ocean that fell on Chen Jingzhai turned into his power.

His body was gradually getting stronger and transforming towards Grade 3.

The unbearable pressure was offset by the internal pressure generated by the surging spiritual essence inside the body.

At the same time, the three magic robes in Chen Jingzhai’s possession also helped him withstand the pressure.

As a result, he did not feel much of anything. He was as comfortable as if he was drifting in the shallow part of the ocean.

Just like bees that were attracted by the flowers, Chen Jingzhai, too, was attracted by the frigid essence power.

No matter how dark the deep ocean was, or how complicated its terrain might be, he was like a fish, swimming along with even purer essence power.

Chen Jingzhai did not come to his senses until he was in front of a giant canyon.

It was like waking up from a dream.

But this was not his fault. Most of his attention was fastened onto the Supreme Sky Master.

Because he was suddenly invigorated by the frigid essence power, the Supreme Sky Master left the Grotto-heavens in a hurry.

He reappeared in the Heavens, continuously swallowing and refining the essence power.

Chen Jingzhai had the good fortune to experience a new sensation in cultivation from the perspective of the Supreme Sky Master.

It was not until he had reached the deep ocean canyon that was he able to pull out.

“Mystery Gate is truly fascinating!”

Chen Jingzhai did not pay attention to the canyon. Instead, he sat in the water to feel the changes taking place inside his body.

Although the thirty-six official deities were moving in unity, Chen Jingzhai felt that most of the essence power was pouring into the Mystery Gate.

It was the key to breaking the limitation of the physical body and building a bridge between heaven and earth.

It was the center where Chen Jingzhai swam into the deep ocean and where the vortex was formed.

There was no spirit deity in the Mystery Gate; it was controlled by the Supreme Sky Master.

After the essence power dropped, most of it inside the Mystery Gate was channeled into the Heavens.

After turning into a liquid form, it would drip down the throat and enter the Five Element Continents.

Just like the falling rain, a major cycle would circulate throughout the body.

This unique cultivation method gave Chen Jingzhai great inspiration.

He realized that his own Primordial Essence Grotto-heavens did not seem to have changes in time of day, nor did it have changes in seasons. As such, it was still imperfect.

At the same time, he also realized that the Grotto-heavens divine light could not only collect items and creatures, it could also draw out pure frigid essence power. All it required was a little skill.

A smile appeared on Chen Jingzhai’s face, as a flicker of divine light fell behind his head, forming a halo.

However, the ocean water containing the frigid essence power penetrated into the halo, seeping back into the ocean inside the Primordial Essence Grotto-heavens.

The halo expanded. Until it finally reached from Chen Jingzhai’s back down to his ankles.

A new vortex formed, but it was a water vortex, and it was completely different from the vortex that loomed above him.

Chen Jingzhai, who was done with everything, disappeared with just a slight movement of his feet.

In the next moment, he appeared on a giant boulder at the mountainside of the canyon that was in the deep ocean.

This was a huge canyon about 150 miles in length.

The cliffs on both sides of the canyon were extremely smooth and steep, as if they had been sheared by a sword.

The canyon seemed bottomless. Even Chen Jingzhai’s divine mind could not fathom it clearly.

But the pure essence power that overflowed from it was clearly perceived by Chen Jingzhai.

This was the reason why he did not let it go, even if this dark canyon was giving him the creeps.

Therefore, he unleashed the Presence Concealment Technique and slowly flew towards the dark canyon.

Still, massive amounts of the frigid essence power continued entering his body, and Chen Jingzhai maintained high efficiency in absorbing it.

Sliding down a hundred feet with the current, Chen Jingzhai found a Grade 4 spirit plant on the cliff.

It was the ice bluegrass that could only exist in extremely harsh habitats.

It was a pity that it was still a young plant, so Chen Jingzhai did not pick it off.

Ice bluegrasses with ice blue fruits were the ones suitable for picking.

The roots of these young ice bluegrasses were very tender, and could break easily if one was not careful.

And the result of the broken root was that the ice bluegrasses would turn directly into ice and disappear.

Chen Jingzhai merely left a small mark nearby before continuing.

As he kept going downward, the number of ice bluegrasses gradually increased.

Seeing as there were ice bluegrasses that actually had ice blue fruits, Chen Jingzhai did not hold back, but used the Grotto-heavens divine light to harvest them.

These ice bluegrasses would be planted in the Seven Stars Moon Pool.

At the same time, Chen Jingzhai deliberately introduced an Innate Qi into the water of the Seven Stars Moon Pool.

In the end, unsurprisingly, all the ice bluegrasses thrived.

The natural habitat of the ice bluegrasses was very harsh, but even then, they had to submit to the Innate Qi.

In addition to the ice bluegrasses, Chen Jingzhai also discovered some glacial black copper.
