Of course, the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest at that time, although strong, could not compare with the slice in Empress Nuwa’s hands, which was about the level of high-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Afterwards, that piece was collected by Tao’s ancestor and used as material when constructing Zixiao Palace.
Theoretically, there should be no Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest left in this place. However, heaven never bars one’s way, and all things have a glimmer of life, including the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest.
It seemed that the Heavenly Dao couldn’t bear to see the treasure of the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest disappear, so, under the countless years of nurturing by the Five Elements’ Original Source, the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest in the place where Tao’s ancestor found it didn’t dissipate but gradually produced new Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest.
And this is the nine grains of Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest that Jiang Chen found. Normally, even if the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest had some life, it should be found in the place where Empress Nuwa found the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest on Mount Buzhou, and not in this Five Elements secret realm amidst the Chaos beyond the sky.
Unfortunately, Mount Buzhou was shattered, resulting in this chance falling into the Five Elements secret realm and Jiang Chen picking up a big bargain.
"Ah! After absorbing my fresh blood, these nine grains of Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest seem to be even more active."
Suddenly, Jiang Chen lowered his eyes to the nine grains of Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest in his hand, and found that they were vibrating slightly, giving off excited thoughts.
Upon noticing this, Jiang Chen seemed to understand something and collected the nine grains of Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest into his body, placing them in his heart chamber for the baptism of his own fresh blood.
Indeed, it didn’t take long for Jiang Chen to notice that the pleasant aura emanating from the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest became even more intense, and their trembling became even more vigorous, as if they were about to split open at any time.
This is a sign that the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest is about to split. If it continues , it won’t take too long for these nine grains of the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest to become eighteen.
Of course, this is not without cost. As you can see, when Jiang Chen’s fresh blood flows over the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest, some will be absorbed by them and become their nutrients.
The advancement of Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest depends entirely on devouring the power of Jiang Chen’s blood vessels. But this isn’t entirely a drawback. For example, although the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest devours part of Jiang Chen’s blood vessel, it also purifies his blood for him, making his blood vessels more pure.
As his blood flowed, strands of mysterious power awakened and emerged from Jiang Chen’s body, gradually enhancing his talents.
At the same time, a type of creative substance began spreading from his blood vessels, gradually integrating into his limbs and bones.
This is a subtle change that won’t have any immediate effect, but over the long term, it will bring Jiang Chen great benefits.
As for what specific benefits, Jiang Chen isn’t quite sure. However, he can sense that with this aura of creation, seemingly it had become easier for him to open his Divine Orifice and light up the gods inside.
This is his most intuitive feeling and also the most obvious benefit.
"The Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest is truly mysterious!" Jiang Chen exclaimed as he felt the changes in his body.
He had established a reciprocal relationship with the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest. In the future, as he continues to strengthen, the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest will also become stronger, thus providing him with even greater assistance.
After quietly experiencing the changes in his body, Jiang Chen’s gaze finally fell on the nine grains of Soil of Rest on the side. Now that the matters with the Nine Heavens’ Soil of Rest had been resolved, it was time to get on with the important matters.
With a thought, Jiang Chen summoned the Thirty-three Heavens Creation Pagoda and, reversing his hand, released a type of Yin and Yang Dao Fire to melt those nine grains of Soil of Rest, reducing them to an extremely turbid Innate Chaos.
Currently, within the Thirty-three Heavens Creation Pagoda, it has a sky but lacks the earth. This is not right. Therefore, Jiang Chen intends to forge the earth for the pagoda.
But is earth so easy to forge? Besides being able to support all things and being extremely heavy, it also needs to have the ability to create everything.
This is not a simple matter. Hence, after thinking about it, Jiang Chen decided to use the Innate Chaos as the main component to build a twelve Dutian God-killing Array, thereby forming the source of earth to generate an endless land.
The Ancestral Witch, transformed from Innate Chaos mixed with Pangu’s essence blood, is the favorite child of the earth and the most representative existence of the earth. The twelve Dutian God-killing array, combining the power of the twelve Ancestral Witches, is the most appropriate foundation for the earth.
And inside the Creation Pagoda, there’s already a Cycle Star Array serving as the sky. Now, by adding the twelve Dutian God-killing Array serving as the earth, this pagoda will possess two of the Prehistoric world’s supreme arrays, which is absolutely powerful beyond words.
As for if there would be conflicts caused by the two formations? That won’t happen. After his previous failure, Jiang Chen has understood that he won’t let the same disaster occur again.
With a thought in his heart, Jiang Chen took out a large amount of precious materials, with twelve different attributes corresponding to the twelve Ancestral Witches.
In Jiang Chen’s hands, these materials gradually melted and turned into twelve orbs of liquid containing different types of elemental energy, floating in the air along with the Innate Chaos.
At this moment, Jiang Chen didn’t immediately construct the array. Instead, he activated the Dao Mirror and the Dutian Robe together.
The twelve Dutian God-killing Array is too high-end. For Jiang Chen to set it up, it would take a lot of time, and he might not be able to fully unleash the power of this array.
So, after thinking about it, in order to save time and for safety’s sake, Jiang Chen decided to use the Dao Mirror to directly replicate a twelve Dutian God-killing Array.
The twelve Dutian God-killing Array in the Dao Mirror is far more mysterious than the one Jiang Chen could arrange on his own. Even the array arranged by Upper Qing Saints would not compare.
Jiang Chen pointed a finger at the Dao Mirror, and saw a divine light shoot out from the mirror, collecting the Innate Chaos and the liquid made from the twelve precious materials, and integrating them into it.
At the same time, the Dutian chart on Jiang Chen’s body was also emitting light, ejecting twelve strands of Innate elemental energy, merging with the divine light and entering the internal part of the Dao Mirror.
This was because Jiang Chen was worried that the materials he prepared might not be enough, so he specifically urged out a trace of the Dutian chart’s Original Source.
