The Peerless Emperor

Chapter 422: Chapter 423 Absorption Spirit Soil

Clearly, the Earth Emperor Bear was grateful that Lin Qian had released him, and gifted him with a rare treasure from its own cave collection.

At this moment, the object at Lin Qian’s feet was an oddly soft material.

After picking it up from the ground, Lin Qian found it extremely supple, feeling much like flesh, yet it was not flesh.

Moreover, Lin Qian was amazed to discover that the object could attract nature’s spiritual energy from its surroundings and channel it inward, which was truly magical.

“Absorption Spirit Soil!” Seeing what Lin Qian was holding in his hand, the strongest member of the Dwarf Clan in the group exclaimed, quickly rushing over to him.

“My Lord, may I please take a look at this item?” After reaching Lin Qian, the dwarf respectfully bowed and then gazed at him with hopeful eyes, wishing for his approval.

Seeing the other’s eager desire, Lin Qian saw no need to refuse, nodding his head and handing over the so-called Absorption Spirit Soil to the dwarf in front of him.

At this time, the Earth Emperor Bear had quietly retreated back into its cave, and with a loud bang, a giant rock sealed the entrance.

Seeing the Earth Emperor Bear’s actions, Lin Qian couldn’t help but laugh and cry, continuing to watch the dwarf before him.

The dwarf before him was the strongest among the Dwarf Clan in this rescue escort team, possessing a cultivation at Second Level of the Nirvana Realm, and he was also a highly skilled Artifact Refiner.

Named Lu Qiaosi!

After taking the Absorption Spirit Soil from Lin Qian, Lu Qiaosi carefully examined it, kneaded it, and then respectfully handed it back, “My Lord, this is clearly a very pure Absorption Spirit Soil!”

Lin Qian took the item and sent it to Zhuge Ming in the Huaxia Empire for research, then asked the dwarf before him, “What exactly is this Absorption Spirit Soil, and what remarkable uses does it have?”

“My Lord, this Absorption Spirit Soil is an excellent material for Artifact Refining, capable of accommodating and converting nature’s spiritual energy into soul power just like the blood vessels of a living being.”

“With Absorption Spirit Soil incorporated into a Soul Device, it can store a vast amount of soul power. Moreover, it does not require manual infusion of soul power, as it can absorb and convert nature’s spiritual energy on its own.”

After listening to the dwarf’s explanation, Lin Qian understood the efficacy of the Absorption Spirit Soil, and he was quite surprised that such a strange substance existed in the world.

“This precious material for Artifact Refining is only possessed by the Royal Family of Black Corner Country, and even then, it is extremely rare,” said the dwarf wistfully. “There’s no specific pattern to where Absorption Spirit Soil can be found; it might just grow amongst ordinary rocks and soil.”

According to the dwarf’s conjecture, it was likely that the Earth Emperor Bear happened to uncover this Absorption Spirit Soil while digging its own dwelling.

Absorption Spirit Soil could autonomously attract nature’s spiritual energy and transform it into pure soul power, and the Earth Emperor Bear would have likely regarded it as a precious possession, capable of drawing out the soul power for its own cultivation.

Using his formidable strength, Lin Qian had completely subdued such a fierce beast, spared its life, and evidently received its most precious possession as a token of gratitude.

“It looks like the harvest isn’t too bad; let’s move on,” Lin Qian said contentedly, speaking to Barret.

At that moment, Barret was still dazed, staring at the Earth Emperor Bear’s dwelling. Hearing Lin Qian’s call, he quickly returned to his senses and continued to lead the way.

As everyone passed the cave blocked by the giant rock, they felt immensely fortunate that they had Lin Qian with them today, or they might well have ended up as the Earth Emperor Bear’s excrement.

Meanwhile, as they looked towards Lin Qian, their respect and fear deepened.

Because although they had previously expected Lin Qian’s Realm to be at Sky Breaking Realm, being able to so effortlessly defeat a Nirvana Realm should mean he resided in such a realm.

As for Life and Death Realm?

They couldn’t even dare to think about it, after all, Lin Qian was only twenty-six years old. How could he possibly have reached the Life and Death Realm?

However, by now, they clearly knew what realm Lin Qian was in.

“Lord,” Liu Fang finally mustered his courage from within the leading group of the Human Clan, took a deep breath, and spoke to Lin Qian.

Hearing Liu Fang calling him, Lin Qian, curious, turned his head to look at him, “What is it?”

Daring to ask, Liu Fang hesitated with anxiety for a moment before finally gathering his courage to ask Lin Qian, “Which realm are you in now?”

Liu Fang was really too curious. Lin Qian, being a member of the Human Clan, actually possessed such frightening strength, making him, also from the Human Clan, feel inexplicably proud.

Indeed, the humans in this group walked with heads held high and chests puffed out.

Historically, among the Four Clans, although they had the highest numbers, their strength had always been the weakest, and in every settlement, only members of the Red Horn Clan or the Spirit Hoof Clan and the Dwarf Clan had instances of being Guardians.

But there had never been a settlement where a member of the Human Clan had become a Guardian, not even once!

Their Human Clan had never had a powerhouse with terrifying battle strength like Lin Qian.

It wasn’t that they lacked powerhouses at the Awakening Realm, but their Human Clan’s Awakening Realm powerhouses had battle strength not even comparable to other races at the Life and Death Realm!

“What realm?” Upon hearing Liu Fang’s question, Lin Qian straightforwardly answered, “Life and Death Heart Realm.”

In Lin Qian’s view, it was normal for the others to be curious about his realm, letting them know carried no harm; it simply satisfied their curiosity.

As Lin Qian’s words fell, Liu Fang and the others were staring wide-eyed, astonished.

Life and Death Heart Realm, at twenty-six years old!

Knowing Lin Qian’s actual realm, Liu Fang truly felt devastated; he was nearly fifty years old and only in the Nirvana Realm.

And here was this young member of the Human Clan, who at the age of twenty-six had already reached the cultivation of the Life and Death Heart Realm, just a step away from the Awakening Realm!

The saying “comparisons with others can make one feel inept,” certainly held true.

Actually, Liu Fang wanted to ask Lin Qian why, being from the same Human Clan, the gap could be so huge.

However, this question involved secrets of cultivation, and Liu Fang felt embarrassed and dared not ask Lin Qian.

Just as everyone was amazed, Lin Qian and his group arrived at the settlement.

As Lin Qian stood on a cliff overlooking the settlement, his eyes filled with wonder. A settlement shared by four different clans was indeed an eye-opening sight.
