Both My Parents Are Supremes—Why Should I Fear a Child of Destiny? - Chapter 29:
Chapter 29: Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle
Standing on the flying boat and looking down, Su Ming took in the entirety of the Azure Sea Sword Sect. It was indeed a small sect—its entire area wasn’t even as large as a few peaks of the Trinity Saint Sect.
At that moment, sharp-eyed cultivators could already see the surging beast tide below, charging in waves toward the defensive line. Ordinary cultivators would be shocked or even frightened by such a scene. However, these were disciples of the Trinity Saint Sect, chosen through layers of selection. Facing the overwhelming beast tide, they weren’t afraid—instead, they were excited. In their eyes, these beasts were precious cultivation resources.
As the flying boat slowly descended, a figure from the Azure Sea Sword Sect soared into the sky, heading straight for the boat. Only cultivators at the Nirvana Realm could fly by controlling the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. The man was undoubtedly the Sect Master of the Azure Sea Sword Sect—Hai Wuliang.
“I am Hai Wuliang of the Azure Sea Sword Sect. I respectfully welcome the honored members of the Trinity Saint Sect here to aid us.”
He stepped onto the flying boat, swept his gaze over the hundreds of disciples, and a hint of fervor flashed in his eyes. In the next moment, he suppressed the emotion and replaced it with a flattering demeanor.
Truthfully, he felt a little regretful now. These people were from the Trinity Saint Sect. If he acted against them and word got out, he wouldn’t be able to protect himself. When Hai Wuliang sent out widespread distress messages, he never expected the Trinity Saint Sect to actually respond. According to the original plot, even if the Trinity Saint Sect did take action, it wouldn’t be until two months later. By then, Hai Wuliang’s cultivation would have reached the 8th stage Nirvana Realm, giving him the confidence to strike against the disciples of the Trinity Saint Sect.
Elder Zhao didn’t bother exchanging pleasantries with Hai Wuliang. His tone was purely official. Once the flying boat was properly landed on one side, he ordered all disciples to go and deal with the demonic beasts. Of course, while issuing this task, he didn’t forget to pay attention to Su Ming’s response. Seeing that Su Ming had no objections, Elder Zhao finally let out a sigh of relief.
Su Ming and the other disciples charged into the beast tide, and in no time, they crushed this wave of the assault. During the battle, Su Ming even took the opportunity to save several disciples who had underestimated the beasts. His prestige rose again, but unfortunately, these people had already fully acknowledged him, so he couldn’t gain any more Destiny Points from them.
Once the remaining beasts had mostly been cleared, Su Ming went to find Shi Qiang.
“This beast tide feels strange. Brother Shi Qiang, I’m going to follow the beasts’ tracks to investigate their source. You go back and inform Elder Zhao.”
“Holy Son, isn’t that too risky? How about I go with you and send another Junior Brother to report to Elder Zhao instead?”
“No need to worry about me.”
Right after speaking, Su Ming used ‘Heaven and Earth Freedom’. In the blink of an eye, he appeared behind Shi Qiang. If Su Ming hadn’t deliberately placed his hand on Shi Qiang’s shoulder, the latter wouldn’t have even noticed him.
Feeling the hand on his shoulder, Shi Qiang gasped, “Hiss… was that a movement technique?”
During their sparring session on the flying boat earlier, Su Ming had never revealed this technique. His true strength was far more terrifying than they had imagined. At this moment, Shi Qiang finally understood where Su Ming’s confidence came from.
“I understand. Holy Son, please be careful.”
He turned around, but Su Ming had already vanished.
[Ding! The host has successfully earned Shi Qiang’s admiration. Gained 5,000 Destiny Points.]
Su Ming wasn’t surprised by the notification. But compared to these small gains, what he cared more about was the upcoming ruin he was heading to.
Recalling the original plot, Su Ming searched around the Azure Sea Sword Sect. Soon, he found the location. But upon seeing the complex terrain, he frowned.
“In the original plot, Hai Wuliang used a sword technique to split this place open, which allowed Chu Fan to enter. If I want to get inside, I’ll have to find the entrance myself…”
Su Ming activated ‘Heaven and Earth Freedom’ and began searching at high speed around the area, looking for a possible entry point.
Effort paid off. Eventually, he discovered a narrow crevice between the rocks that served as an entrance. Squeezing through it and stepping into the ruin, the space suddenly opened up before him. A faint scent of vegetation filled the entire ruin.
Following the aroma, Su Ming moved swiftly through the ruins.
“Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle, I’m coming!”
In the original plot, Chu Fan’s core cheat item was the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle. This magical artifact looked like a small porcelain bottle covered in green patterns. It would periodically produce a special liquid. That liquid had only one function—accelerating the growth of spiritual herbs, regardless of their grade. By preserving just one seed of the Three Saints Golden Lotus, the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle could produce countless others. With this artifact in hand, any spiritual herb, no matter how rare, could be endlessly reproduced as long as its seed was available. An infinite supply of herbs was naturally invaluable to cultivators.
As the herbal scent grew stronger, a hidden chamber appeared before Su Ming. Strange patterns were etched across its surface, with a clear groove in the center.
Su Ming placed his storage ring into the groove. With a click, the secret door slowly opened, and the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle placed in the center was revealed.
Confirming that no restrictions were in place, Su Ming confidently stepped forward and collected both the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle and the herb seeds stored within the chamber.
[Ding! Host has successfully seized Chu Fan’s core opportunity, the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle. Gained Destiny Points (amount reduced due to alteration of core fate).]
Seeing the notification, Su Ming wasn’t particularly concerned. Chu Fan could keep the Gluttonous Spirit Devourer—it was far weaker compared to the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle. Even after the novel was cut off, the author never revealed the artifact’s actual grade, suggesting it was extraordinary.
“The liquid in the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle takes one full day and night to replenish after depletion. But to nurture a full spiritual herb, it only consumes ten percent.”
Su Ming took one of the seeds from the secret chamber and poured the bottle’s liquid onto it. The seed sprouted, grew, and matured at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than fifty breaths, a complete Profound Yang Spiritual Herb appeared before him.
“I can totally use the Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle to accelerate high-grade herb growth, then convert them into Chaos Qi using the Chaos Spirit Crystal and absorb it…”
Thinking this, Su Ming immediately took out the Chaos Spirit Crystal. But at that moment, something unexpected happened.
The Ten Thousand Wood Spring Bottle and the Chaos Spirit Crystal seemed to resonate with each other. In the next instant, both slipped out of Su Ming’s control and collided.
A brilliant light erupted, flooding the entire chamber…
