Chapter 3355: Soul Recovery (Two)
Afterwards, Jian Chen began to find ancestral imprints in the maze at the rate of one a year.
Of course, one ancestral imprint a year was only an average. The actual time he obtained the ancestral imprints was not constant. Sometimes, he would come across two or even three of them, and sometimes, he would not even find a single one in a year.
The number of lingering wills around each ancestral imprint varied as well. Out of the ancestral imprints that Jian Chen had obtained, the fewest was only guarded by two lingering wills.
However, the most had a total of eight lingering wills.He had already begun cooperating with the Jade Heaven Ruler now. The Jade Heaven Ruler provided him with heavenly resources that could help him recover the power of his soul, while Jian Chen was responsible for using Profound Sword Qi against these lingering wills.
Just like that, another five years passed, and Jian Chen obtained another five ancestral imprints. The Jade Heaven Ruler also obtained an ancestral imprint from Jian Chen as previously agreed upon.
The Jade Heaven Ruler immediately made the ancestral imprint hers happily. As the sliver of the power of her soul merged with the ancestral imprint, it formally became hers.
Immediately, the Jade Heaven Ruler’s presence began to climb. After obtaining six ancestral imprints, her strength had visibly increased.
When you’re just trying to make great content at .me.
Jian Chen spent the four other ancestral imprints on the spiritual field to accelerate the growth of the Lifesoul Flowers.
However, after reaching high grade Saint Tier, the energy required was obviously even more tremendous if they wanted to evolve to supreme grade Saint Tier. As a result, after spending four ancestral imprints on them, the one thousand and two hundred Lifesoul Flowers were still quite far off from reaching supreme grade Saint Tier.However, this was all within Jian Chen’s expectations.
Jian Chen was completely submerged in the joy of searching for ancestral imprints, like he had become possessed. He could not feel exhaustion at all. As his Profound Sword Qi was rapidly exhausted and replenished, more and more lingering wills perished at his hand, which gave him more and more ancestral imprints.
The Jade Heaven Ruler was the happiest without a doubt. Recently, she spent every single day submerged in joy, like someone who was penniless stumbling across a great treasure. She was unable to dismiss her excitement.
The ancestral imprints in her possession were constantly increasing too. It went from the initial six to seven and then eight before long.
Just like this, the ancestral imprints in her possession surpassed the Blood Slaughter Ruler’s in no time, reaching nine in total.
Before they knew it, half a century had already passed.
During these fifty years, Jian Chen collected thirty-five ancestral imprints in total. He had slain over a hundred of the lingering wills.
According to his agreement with the Jade Heaven Ruler, he gave away a total of seven of the thirty-five ancestral imprints.
Now, the Jade Heaven Ruler’s ancestral imprints had reached twelve in total.
That had completely surpassed the Blood Slaughter Ruler’s.
As for the remaining twenty-eight ancestral imprints, they all went towards accelerating the growth of Lifesoul Flowers.
After using up so many ancestral imprints, the one thousand and two hundred Lifesoul Flowers finally lived up to his expectations and all reached supreme grade Saint Tier.
“They’ve finally matured. I’ve spent several decades waiting for this day.” Jian Chen casually picked one of the Lifesoul Flowers from the spiritual field and studied it. He smiled gently.
“You’ve used up over twenty ancestral imprints for this field of Lifesoul Flowers. That’s over twenty of them.” The Heaven Fighting Ruler sighed beside Jian Chen.
He had grown numb to Jian Chen’s wastefulness a long time ago.
Before long, all one thousand and two hundred supreme grade Saint Tier Lifesoul Flowers ended up in Jian Chen’s hand.
After obtaining the Lifesoul Flowers, Jian Chen did not hurry off to find new ancestral imprints. Instead, he refined the Lifesoul Flowers immediately and extracted their essence through a special method, condensing droplets of medicinal fluid.
Afterwards, he used the medicinal fluid to nourish his soul as he continued through the maze, searching for ancestral imprints.
If he wanted to heal his soul completely, just one thousand and two hundred Lifesoul Flowers was nowhere near enough.
The recovery would become more difficult towards the end, so the Lifesoul Flowers required would obviously increase as well. He had to grow even more supreme grade Saint Tier Lifesoul Flowers.
Eight years later, Jian Chen collected another five ancestral imprints and shared one of them with the Jade Heaven Ruler.
But this time, the Jade Heaven Ruler failed to make the ancestral imprint hers. Her face was filled with pity as she said, “Looks like I’ve already reached my limit. If I want to obtain a thirteenth ancestral imprint, I’ll have to reach the Third Heavenly Layer of Chaotic Prime at the very least.”
“The limit for the Second Heavenly Layer should be twelve ancestral imprints.” The Jade Heaven Ruler handed the ancestral imprint back to Jian Chen reluctantly and said, “You should take this ancestral imprint. I’ve already gained enough ancestral imprints from you. I became satisfied a long time ago. Moreover, I’m out of heavenly resources that can be used to recover the power of the soul.”
“You’re already out of heavenly resources?” Jian Chen was taken aback. He murmured, “Without these heavenly resources, the power of my soul will recover much more slowly. Looks like we’ll have to move more slowly when we obtain ancestral imprints next.”
“Is one thousand and two hundred supreme grade Saint Tier Lifesoul Flowers still not enough to heal the wounds of your soul?” The Jade Heaven Ruler gazed at Jian Chen with mixed feelings. After spending several decades together, she understood Jian Chen better and better. Just the fact that he gave her seven ancestral imprints had completely changed the way she viewed him.
It was completely possible for Jian Chen to not give her so many ancestral imprints. Even if he only offered one ancestral imprint for all of the heavenly resources on her, she would have agreed without any hesitation.
However, he had instead chosen to give her so many ancestral imprints.
“Nowhere near enough!” Jian Chen shook his head.
The Jade Heaven Ruler hesitated. In the end, she finally made up her mind and said rather unnaturally, “Actually, I have a way to quickly replenish the power of your soul even without heavenly resources.”
“What is it?” Jian Chen’s eyes lit up as he stared straight at the Jade Heaven Ruler.
The Jade Heaven Ruler turned rather red. Only after a moment of hesitation did she whisper bashfully, “I know a secret technique that can turn my power of the soul into yours so that you recover your power of the soul.”
Jian Chen frowned slightly. “But wouldn’t that deplete the power of your soul? And you’re also aware that whenever I use my trump card, it uses up a large amount of the power of my soul.”
“I have twelve ancestral imprints now. Not only do these ancestral imprints strengthen me, but they also increase my regeneration speed. The power of my soul recovers faster than yours.” The Jade Heaven Ruler turned bright red. She was even more shy than before. Her eyes darted about, rather afraid to meet Jian Chen’s gaze. She whispered, “If I support you, your soul will recover much faster than ingesting those heavenly resources.”
“Really? Now that’s something I’d like to see.” Jian Chen’s eyes lit up, but he soon noticed how there was something slightly off with the Jade Heaven Ruler’s expression, leaving him surprised. He asked, “Is there something about the method you speak of that troubles you?”
The Jade Heaven Ruler said nothing. Instead, she shut her eyes and sucked in a few deep breaths. When she opened her eyes again, she recovered her calm demeanour. All of the bashfulness and awkwardness had vanished.
“It’s nothing. Shut your eyes and don’t resist my soul.” The Jade Heaven Ruler spoke calmly.
Jian Chen subconsciously shut his eyes.
In the next moment, the Jade Heaven Ruler’s soul left her body and directly entered Jian Chen’s head.
