330 THE EXTREME YIN TREE

“How did you know that there will be something like this in the Netherworld River?”

“Boy, the treasure you are holding once belonged to the strongest race in the whole universe. Do you think we were called strong for some casual reason? At my peak, I could devour one or two hells easily. But we shouldn’t delve into the depths. The main reason for there being a boat in the first place is the corrosive properties of this netherworld river.”

“You wouldn’t believe it if the boat was constructed of a material that is even precious for me to find out. I could have gone through 4 rounds of transformation if I had just absorbed this boat.”

“Why don’t we do it then?”

“Because eth Netherwolrd boat is always guarded by a Netherworld captain. A being who has already surpassed the saints level at the very least. Not only will we be captured by it, but you will also die and I will be devoured. You should not have any thoughts about this boat.”

“What is interesting though is the fact that this bat could potentially lead you directly to the Netherwolrd, or Hell if I have to say it more clearly. Hence, I do have a proposal for you. Why don’t you find the treasure which we are supposed to hunt for in the man and once we are done, use this boat to go for a trip in hell.”

“That is not within my plans. I can summon Hell anytime I want. Why would I need to use a boat to go there?”

“It is because when you travel through this plane to Hell, you will have to cross the Dimensional Barrier between the two worlds. This is a spot perfect for you to sense the world’s energy in. We will do 1 trip forward and 1 trip back, which should be enough to let you gain a good comprehension of what world energy truly is.”

“We can try that out.” Li Meng agreed. A chance to understand the one component which is keeping him from connecting to Chaos laws. How could he miss it?

.....

Li meng began to insect the boat and soon found that he couldn’t find anyone on it.

“Why can’t I see anyone?”

“All of the creatures who are traveling are on the floor below. You can’t go there due to the limitations of your cultivation level. You might want to take a trip to this place once you enter the Dominator realm.” The Keeper clarified Li Meng’s doubts.

Li Meng decided to give and verify the boat itself. He took out his sword and tried to attack the floor with his full power, even a scratch wasn’t left in there. This amazed Li Meng as he didn’t expect the materials to be this stuff. When he verified his Black Dragon sword, he could see a small part of it chipped out. His sword was damaged by the last clash.

“Your Black Dragon sword is just an emperor-level weapon. How could it work against something that can do a dimensional jump? Even a saint-level weapon wouldn’t make a scratch on this boat. You are quite gutsy to even try something like this.” Keeper warned Li Meng that the possible repercussions could be huge.

Li Meng finally decided to give up on the idea and began to look around the boat. It was quite vast, and he felt like the boat was formed out of a special formation that prevented people from knowing how big it was. Boat speed had caught up and after a few hours of neck-breaking travel, it finally started to slow down.

“It seems like we have reached our destination. Let’s hope there is an Extreme Yin Tree here.” LI meg slowly moved towards the exit and finally saw the island before him. It was big, and yet there was one thing that stood out even from this distance. A majestic outline of a tree was present in the middle of the island.

“That is the Extreme Yin Tree. You are quite a fortunate boy. Let’s rush in.”

“Do you know the most surprising factor about this trip?”

Li Meng asked.

“What is it?” The Keeper asked.

“The location we are currently in is exactly the one marked in the amp. I initially doubted this, but the pathway mentioned in the map seems to just spiral around and lead to the same location.” Li Meng said, pointing at the map in his hands.

“That is even better. We get to shoot two birds with a single stone. Let’s hope your conjecture is true and that the treasure lies on the island.”

“What if it is the Extreme Yin tree? Li Meng asked.

“Not many people in this plane can recognize the Extreme Yin Tree. But if your guess is right, then the map belongs to someone quite powerful. They must be at the top of Qi Dominator at the very least to know about the secrets of other planes.”

“So we might be dealing with an entity who was one step away from half saint?”

“Unfortunately yes.” The Keeper said.

The duo proceeds into the depths of the island. During the trip, Li Meng came around some king-level beast but was able to kill them almost instantly. What surprised him were the indigenous plants which grew on the island. These plants required a very high concentration of Yin Qi to grow and were quite precious, some even at grade 6 and higher. Li Meng collected many of them and stored them in the Crimson World artifact.

“There is a Dark Mahogany, splinter wood, Death-corpse vine. So many herbs could be found on this island. The Keeper was identifying the precious herbs and Li Meng was busy plucking them up. Soon enough he managed to collect around 100 stalks of a bunch of herbs and a variety of species of trees.

Li Meng finally walked into the depths of the island and finally came across a weird location that was secluded from the rest of the island by a huge stone mountain around it. There was a cave at the entrance and the words at its entrance were.

“Netherworld Cave.”
