Ten Thousand Year Willow Heart

Time trickled by, and Wang Cheng gradually felt his heart beating faster.

Finally, after about a minute, Number One's voice rang out again.

"No substance harder than G-class metal detected!"

"Nothing found?" Wang Cheng nodded slightly, inexplicably relieved.

Wang Cheng had the detector search for substances on Earth harder than G-class metal with the natural goal of finding Earth's most precious treasure: the Sky Soul Crystal, which stored a fragment of the Nine Tribulation Scripture!

Of course, Wang Cheng had no intention of cultivating the Nine Tribulation Scripture. For one thing, cultivating the Nine Tribulation Scripture was life-threatening. Although Wang Cheng had the Clone Technique, his clones couldn't resurrect the main body. If the main body died, he would truly be dead. Even if he could use a clone to practice the Nine Tribulation Scripture until it was familiar, accidents could still happen when the main body took over!

This was gambling with his life. Wang Cheng had the Opportunity Grasping System; he didn't need to risk his life to cultivate a single technique.

Before reaching 10081 times the gene level, besides the Nine Tribulation Scripture, there were plenty of treasures inside and outside the Original Universe that could enhance gene level.

The Primal Embryo Wang Cheng had consumed earlier was the most typical example!

And after reaching 10081 times the gene level, the Nine Tribulation Scripture would be useless. Breaking through this limit would be enough to become a true god. This wasn't something a simple technique or treasure could achieve!

Therefore, Wang Cheng had no intention of risking his life to cultivate that thing!

Furthermore, it was widely known that the Nine Tribulation Scripture was a cultivation technique prepared by the former God King, now the Life-Preserving Great God "Zuo Shan Ke," for his Third Disciple. Anyone who cultivated this technique would inevitably have to go through the Star Tower.

Wang Cheng considered his willpower to be average and had no interest in touching dangerous things like the Star Tower.

However, even though he didn't plan to cultivate it, out of curiosity, Wang Cheng still had the detector search for it.

"It's good that it wasn't found. I don't want to attract Zuo Shan Ke's attention!" Wang Cheng thought silently, then gave up the idea of continuing the search.

In fact, although Earth was created by Zuo Shan Ke, he didn't pay much attention to it. Even if Earth were destroyed, a new planet would form here after countless years.

Earth's uniqueness wasn't in the planet itself; its surrounding environment had been modified. Any planet born in Earth's location could nurture life with special willpower.

However, Zuo Shan Ke usually didn't care, but if someone touched the Sky Soul Crystal storing the Nine Tribulation Scripture, he might not be indifferent. Even a glance from Zuo Shan Ke would make Wang Cheng feel very dangerous.

Wang Cheng was a person with very little sense of security, let alone now that he possessed the Opportunity Grasping System.

Thinking about it this way, not finding it was a good thing!

"No more thinking about this!" Wang Cheng shook his head, then got up and walked out of his room.

Wang Cheng checked on Jiang Mingyue and found that she was still in a cocoon state, looking like she wouldn't emerge anytime soon.

"For the next period, I'll have to rely on myself!" Wang Cheng sighed slightly. After being served for three months, suddenly having to be self-reliant felt quite unaccustomed.

In the following days, Wang Cheng worked hard to help Luo Feng inherit Hu Yanbo's legacy as soon as possible.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Luo Feng, who was diligently cultivating at home, suddenly received a message from Wang Cheng. Without hesitation, he went directly to Wang Cheng's home.

"Brother Wang, you were looking for me?" Luo Feng looked at Wang Cheng with some confusion.

"Luo Feng, what's your current strength?" Wang Cheng asked directly.

"My strength." Luo Feng thought for a moment, then continued, "Before the New Year, I tested at the Limitless Martial Arts Hall. My punching power and speed are already close to Intermediate General level, and my neural reaction speed has reached the excellent grade of Intermediate General. Coupled with my Nine Heavens Thunder Blade reaching the Sixth Level, my strength should far surpass that of an ordinary High-level War General. I estimate I should be at the bottom line of Primary War God!"

"Progress is quite fast!"

Wang Cheng nodded. Luo Feng's current progress speed was indeed far beyond his at the same stage in Swallowed Star. The reason was simple: the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade came with the Guidance Technique. The higher its level, the faster the absorption of cosmic energy. Luo Feng's Nine Heavens Thunder Blade had already reached the Sixth Level, so his cosmic energy absorption speed was naturally fast. Therefore, his basic physical fitness alone was close to Mid-level War General level.

With the help of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade, it was not surprising that Luo Feng's strength far surpassed that of an ordinary High-level War General!

Of course, Luo Feng was actually a Mental Master. His current strength as a Mental Master should be at the War God level!

"It's all thanks to your guidance, Brother Wang!" Luo Feng scratched his head. Wang Cheng's guidance was indispensable for him to master the Sixth Level of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade. Luo Feng estimated that if he were on his own, he would be lucky to learn the first two levels of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade by now. The Third Level would depend on luck!

"However, your progress speed is still not fast enough!" Wang Cheng suddenly shook his head.

"And this isn't fast?" Luo Feng was slightly taken aback. He had only been a Warrior for a little over half a year, and he was already comparable to a War God. This speed of getting stronger was like lightning, and it wasn't fast?

"Let me help you out!" Wang Cheng smiled. When Luo Feng wasn't paying attention, a captivating green glow appeared in Wang Cheng's hand.

"What is this?" Luo Feng stared at the green in Wang Cheng's hand, feeling an astonishing attraction from it.

"This is a Ten Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart!" Wang Cheng introduced.

"This Ten Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart has been specially cultivated by me. It can increase a person's physical fitness by about six to ten times! With your physical fitness, which is close to Intermediate General level, after using this Ten Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart, you will most likely reach the Mid-level War God level. If you're lucky, you might even become a High-level War God!"

"What?" Luo Feng suspected he had misheard.

"You heard correctly!" Wang Cheng nodded with absolute certainty.

Previously, Wang Cheng obtained a Wood Spirit Crystal through the Opportunity Grasping System. He found a willow tree in the Wilderness Area and fed the crushed Wood Spirit Crystal to it.

Nourished by the Wood Spirit Crystal powder, the ordinary willow tree immediately became extraordinary and also produced this Ten Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart.

One should know that Wood Spirit Crystals could easily create Planet level treasures. That willow tree, having a whole Wood Spirit Crystal all to itself, produced a top-tier Ten Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart. Wang Cheng's estimate of increasing physical fitness by six to ten times was conservative; it might even be more exaggerated!

At this moment, looking at the serious Wang Cheng, Luo Feng gradually accepted this fact. This Ten Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart was likely as incredible as described!

In fact, Luo Feng had previously speculated that Wang Cheng was likely the one who unleashed the boundless wind and thunder in the Wilderness Area. If that were true, then it wouldn't be strange for Wang Cheng, with his strength, to casually produce this seemingly incredible treasure!

"Brother Wang, I can't accept this treasure!" Luo Feng quickly declined.

"Don't rush, I'm not giving it to you for free!" Wang Cheng smiled. He continued, "My Ten Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart is considered top-grade among Ten Thousand Year Willow Wood Hearts. Given our relationship, I'll give you a fifty percent discount. This Hundred Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart will be priced at 300 Billion Earth Coins!"

"You can use it now, and you just need to return 300 billion Earth Coins or materials of equivalent value to me in the future!"

"300 billion?"

Luo Feng blinked. The last time he risked his life in Base City No. 003 and got lucky, he earned less than 30 billion. Now, he was being asked to owe a debt of 300 billion.

"However, if I can get this Hundred Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart, my physical fitness aside, my Mental Energy will definitely reach High-level War God, and even be much stronger than a normal High-level War God. By then, earning this 300 billion won't be as difficult as I imagine."

The stronger he became, the faster he could earn money. Luo Feng naturally understood this principle, but he was still hesitant. Although Wang Cheng offered the sky-high price of 300 billion, it still made Luo Feng feel like he was getting a great deal!

While 300 billion was an astronomical figure, normally, even 600 billion probably wouldn't be enough to buy such a treasure that could increase one's physical fitness by nearly ten times!

"..."

Seeing Luo Feng still hesitating, Wang Cheng pondered for a moment before pulling out his trump card.

"Luo Feng, you killed the son of the Li Yao couple, didn't you?" Wang Cheng suddenly asked.

Hearing Wang Cheng's words, Luo Feng's expression changed. But seeing the Hundred Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart in Wang Cheng's hand, Luo Feng relaxed. Since Wang Cheng could casually take out the incredibly precious Hundred Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart, he naturally wouldn't care about that 100 billion.

"Brother Wang, how did you know?" Luo Feng didn't deny it, but instead asked with some confusion.

"It's not just me who knows. Li Yao probably knows by now too!" Wang Cheng didn't hesitate either. He directly explained how Silvia discovered he was a Mental Master.

Of course, Wang Cheng didn't reveal his true relationship with Silvia. He only said it was a casual acquaintance between friends!

"Li Yao was crippled by you, Brother Wang?" Luo Feng looked at Wang Cheng in astonishment.

"Just shattered bones all over. With a Warrior's physical fitness, plus the nourishment from treasures like the Water of Life, Li Yao might already be able to get out of bed. In another month or two, he'll likely recover his full strength!" Wang Cheng smiled. "You've been at home for the past two months, so you haven't noticed. If you went to the Wilderness Area, even if Li Yao couldn't act himself, he'd probably hire someone to test you!"

"This..."

Luo Feng suddenly felt immense pressure. After all, the Li Yao couple were genuine High-level War Gods, and the current Luo Feng was no match for them!

Although Luo Feng was growing rapidly now, he still didn't believe he could deal with the Li Yao couple in two months!

"However, as long as you use this, a mere Li Yao will be nothing!" Wang Cheng pushed the Hundred Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart in his hand again.

"Brother Wang, thank you!" Luo Feng said earnestly.

"No need to thank me. I didn't plan to help you deal with Li Yao originally. Since I'm helping you now, I naturally have my own purpose!" Wang Cheng said frankly.

"Purpose?" Luo Feng was confused.

"You'll know when the time comes!" Wang Cheng didn't elaborate. He threw the Hundred Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart to Luo Feng and continued, "Just cut open the surface and drink the liquid inside. The process is quite comfortable, don't worry!"

"Okay!"

Luo Feng looked at the Hundred Thousand Year Willow Wood Heart in his hand, his heart set on it.

Although Wang Cheng had stated directly that he had ulterior motives, their interaction over this period had made Luo Feng trust Wang Cheng deeply. He had an intuition that Wang Cheng meant no harm. Coupled with the imminent threat from Li Yao, Luo Feng, for the sake of his own life, would naturally not hesitate any further!
