Chapter 483: Climbing is Difficult, Falling is Easy

After landing, Hua Changxi did not rush to explore the surrounding environment, but stood among the flowers, looking up at the dead and silent void black sky above her head, her eyes deep and thoughtful.

Before, flying from the root system to the divine tree, there were heavy obstacles; but falling along the root system, it was unimpeded.

In the Divine Tree space, going up is difficult, but falling is easy.

Thinking that the divine tree penetrates the nine heavens above and connects to the nine underworlds below, can she think that climbing the nine heavens is difficult, but falling into the nine underworlds is easy?

Hua Changxi took back her gaze, her thoughts surging.

She had heard a lot about the nine underworlds, and had encountered many cultivators who had been to the nine underworlds; she herself had also been to the nine underworlds several times; however, she had not heard or seen anything about the nine heavens yet.

"It seems that no matter where you go, going up is not an easy task, while falling is just a matter of thought."

After Hua Changxi sighed, she took back her mind and began to look around.

The Fusang Divine Tree is deeply planted in Tang Valley, tempering the exotic fires of heaven and earth; the Undying Divine Tree is rooted in Pill Spring, nourishing rare spiritual grasses.

Tang Valley, fire spirit is blazing, burning heaven and boiling sea; Pill Spring, vitality is surging, moistening the universe.

Being in the land of Pill Spring, which is different from Tang Valley, looking at the exotic flowers and grasses all over the ground, Hua Changxi's face was full of sighs about the heritage of the holy land.

Whether it is Tang Valley or Pill Spring, compared with the secret realm, it is not much worse, and the quantity and grade of resources nurtured are even more and higher than most secret realms.

Hua Changxi shuttled among the exotic flowers and grasses, collecting some rare spiritual plants and flowers from time to time, and soon, she walked to the stone tablet engraved with the two characters "Pill Spring."

The stone tablet stood in the center of the widest area of the emerald spiritual spring.

Looking around, the emerald spring wound and circled, with nine turns and eighteen bends, not only covering every inch of land within sight, but also extending endlessly toward the unknown place at the end of the vision.

Obviously, this emerald spiritual spring was the Pill Spring.

The Pill Spring was not stationary, but flowed slowly, and the water surface also rotated slowly with a strange rhythm, forming many small whirlpools.

The whirlpools did not swallow everything, but rather seemed to be breathing. Every time they contracted and expanded, points of green light dust floated up from the spring, merged into the air, and turned into nutrients for the exotic treasures and grasses around.

Hua Changxi chose the west side of the stone tablet where spiritual grasses and flowers grew most densely to explore, and walked slowly along the Pill Spring.

At first, she only thought that this Pill Spring was naturally formed by the spiritual energy in the ground, but after walking a distance along the Pill Spring, looking at the green spiritual rain falling from the void above her head from time to time, each drop containing surging vitality, she realized that this Pill Spring was not nurtured by the earth, but originated from the Undying Divine Tree.

It was the vitality spiritual liquid condensed between the branches and leaves of the divine tree, falling to the ground to form a spring.

As she continued to move away from the stone tablet, the water surface of the Pill Spring began to narrow gradually.

At the stone tablet, the spring surface was as vast as a lake, with a width of a thousand meters; but after Hua Changxi explored westward for an hour, the Pill Spring had shrunk into a winding stream, no more than a few meters wide, as if it would dry up at any time.

After that, Hua Changxi could not continue to move forward.

It was not that there was no road, but that gray mist filled the air ahead, making it impossible to see things, and even her divine sense could not explore.

Hua Changxi condensed a mass of flames at her fingertips and threw it into the mist, only to see the flames instantly swallowed by the gray mist, without causing any response, and then completely disappeared.

Seeing this situation, Hua Changxi's eyes sank slightly. After thinking for a while, she turned and returned, and then centered on the stone tablet, explored the south, north, and east directions again.

The south and north of the stone tablet were the same as the west, and when the water surface of the Pill Spring was only a few meters wide, they were blocked by gray mist.

But the east of the stone tablet was very different.

Hua Changxi walked only a few miles to the east, and the scene in front of her changed—a gray boundary stone platform stood tall, its shape exactly the same as the array eye platform of the Instrument Saint Palace!

In the center of the stone platform, a black-green alchemy furnace floated quietly, emitting an ancient and mysterious aura.

Hua Changxi's gaze only paused on the alchemy furnace for a moment, then fell on the human-shaped stone carvings on the stone platform. Almost the moment she touched the stone carvings, a look of solemnity surged in her eyes, and her chest felt a bit suffocated.

She knew that those human-shaped stone carvings were living people. They used their bodies as sacrifices, turning into stone statues to guard the array eye, just to block the evil demon energy.
