Chapter 669 665: 2,000,000 Power of Enlightenment
In Ye Chen's residence, a rare guest had arrived.
This person was none other than Venerable Qingfeng, the Pavilion Master of the Celestial Pill Pavilion.
"Grandmaster Ye Chen, these are the treasure medicines I've collected over the past month, all containing Wood Spirit Qi. Please accept them with a smile," Venerable Qingfeng said respectfully to Ye Chen in the grand hall, taking out a storage ring.
The treasure medicines were extremely valuable, but the Celestial Pill Pavilion had plenty of them.
However, treasure medicines containing Wood Spirit Qi were extremely rare, and it was difficult to find even one among a hundred.
Therefore, even though Venerable Qingfeng used all his resources and even went to other states' branches of the Celestial Pill Pavilion, he could only collect over three hundred treasure medicines containing Wood Spirit Qi.
Moreover, the majority of these three-hundred-plus treasure medicines were of lower grade, with not much Wood Spirit Qi contained within them.
"I appreciate your effort, Venerable Qingfeng," Ye Chen said with a slight smile.
He had long known that treasure medicines containing Wood Spirit Qi were extremely rare, so he felt content that Venerable Qingfeng could help him find so many of them.
"Grandmaster Ye Chen, you are too kind. I shall take my leave now," said Venerable Qingfeng, standing up to bid Ye Chen farewell.
Although the value of these treasure medicines was incredibly high,
he wasn't worried at all that Ye Chen couldn't repay him.
Because the Peiyuan Pills Ye Chen provided for the Celestial Pill Pavilion were in such high demand, they generated massive profits for the pavilion each year.
So even if Ye Chen owed the Celestial Pill Pavilion more Spirit Stones, they wouldn't be concerned.
Whoosh!
A moment later, Ye Chen returned to the cultivation chamber and took out the three-hundred-plus treasure medicines containing Wood Spirit Qi from the storage ring.
Among these treasure medicines, there were four top-grade ones, fifteen were upper-grade, over sixty were middle-grade, and the remaining two hundred-plus were all lower-grade.
"Devour them for me," Ye Chen thought as he activated the power of the Enlightenment Divine Tower to begin consuming the Wood Spirit Qi from the four top-grade treasure medicines.
Soon, his Enlightenment Divine Tower accumulated a total of two hundred thousand points of Power of Enlightenment.
"These top-grade treasure medicines truly contain an impressive amount of Wood Spirit Qi, enough to provide so much Power of Enlightenment," Ye Chen marveled.
He had once obtained a lower-grade treasure medicine containing Wood Spirit Qi, which only provided him with a thousand points of Power of Enlightenment.
Yet the top-grade treasure medicine gave fifty times that amount.
Unfortunately, top-grade treasure medicines containing Wood Spirit Qi were exceedingly rare.
Otherwise, Ye Chen wouldn't need to worry about acquiring Power of Enlightenment.
Zzz!
Next, Ye Chen activated the Enlightenment Divine Tower again to devour all the Wood Spirit Qi from the other treasure medicines.
In the end, he astonishingly gained over one million one hundred thousand points of Power of Enlightenment.
Such an abundance of Power of Enlightenment was enough to completely master more than a dozen lower-grade Earth Level martial arts.
"Master, this Power of Enlightenment should be enough to master a lower-grade Celestial Level martial art," Tower Spirit couldn't help but remark.
He informed Ye Chen that typically it would take about one million points of Power of Enlightenment to fully master a lower-grade Celestial Level martial art.
Ye Chen's amassed Power of Enlightenment clearly exceeded that.
"No rush, let's first absorb the branches that fell from the Purple Wood Demon King and see how much Power of Enlightenment they can provide," Ye Chen said with a slight smile, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Buzz!
In the next moment, thick purple branches flew out from Ye Chen's storage bracelet, filling the entire cultivation chamber.
These branches had all fallen from the Purple Wood Demon King itself, containing an astonishing amount of Wood Spirit Qi.
Soon, all those hundreds of branches were absorbed by the Enlightenment Divine Tower.
In Ye Chen's Enlightenment Divine Tower, nearly another one hundred points of Power of Enlightenment appeared.
"These branches are only a part of the Purple Wood Demon King, yet they hold so much Wood Spirit Qi. If I could slay the Purple Wood Demon King, wouldn't I be able to gain even more Power of Enlightenment," Ye Chen mused.
"Of course, the Purple Wood Demon King is on par with a Venerable Golden Core. If you could completely devour its body, you could easily obtain several million points of Power of Enlightenment, or even more! Unfortunately, you're still too weak to kill the Demon King," Tower Spirit said with a grin.
"I must strive to grow stronger. Then, obtaining Power of Enlightenment would be as simple as turning over a hand," Ye Chen said with a determined gleam in his eyes.
A single Purple Wood Demon King could provide Ye Chen with at least several million points of Power of Enlightenment, enough to master several lower-grade Celestial Level martial arts.
If one day Ye Chen possessed the power to defeat the Purple Wood Demon King, mastering lower-grade Celestial Level martial arts would be as effortless as eating and drinking—he'd just need to defeat a few more mighty beings like the Purple Wood Demon King.
By that time, lower-grade Celestial Level martial arts might no longer catch Ye Chen's interest.
"Master, you currently have two Celestial Level martial arts. Which do you plan to cultivate first?" Tower Spirit asked Ye Chen.
"Of course, I'll start with the Void Divine Fist!" Ye Chen said decisively.
The Void Divine Fist was an incomplete lower-grade Celestial Level martial art, requiring less Power of Enlightenment to cultivate than the Ice King Swordsmanship.
Hence, Ye Chen decided to begin with the Void Divine Fist.
Zzz!
In the next instant, countless golden light points surged from Ye Chen's Enlightenment Divine Tower and quickly entered his mind.
Immediately, a mysterious small figure appeared in the depths of Ye Chen's mind, practicing the Void Divine Fist.
The Void Divine Fist was accidentally obtained by the Carefree Wanderer in an ancient battlefield.
Since it was completely incomplete, even Ye Chen didn't know which level of True Intent he could cultivate it to.
However, Ye Chen had so much Power of Enlightenment, he wasn't worried about running out.
So he completely let go, allowing the Power of Enlightenment to flow into the depths of his mind as he continuously cultivated the Void Divine Fist.
"Having the Power of Enlightenment is wonderful! I don't even need to personally cultivate to master the Void Divine Fist," Ye Chen said with satisfaction.
He had already mastered many martial arts techniques with the Power of Enlightenment.
This time, he saw no need to pay more attention and simply went to sleep on the side.
He hadn't relaxed like this in a long time.
...
Time flew by.
Before he knew it, three hours had passed, and Ye Chen finally awoke.
However, in the next moment, his pupils suddenly contracted, his eyes widening as if he'd witnessed the most unbelievable thing in the world.
Because he found that the two million points of Power of Enlightenment in the Enlightenment Divine Tower had dwindled to just a few thousand.
This revelation was like a bolt from the blue for him.
"Tower Spirit, how did this happen? Didn't you say one million points of Power of Enlightenment would be enough to master a lower-grade Celestial Level martial art? How could an incomplete Void Divine Fist consume so much of my Power of Enlightenment?" Ye Chen hurriedly asked Tower Spirit, looking like he had seen a ghost.
