Chapter 175: The Secret of the Cliff of Reflection


"What opportunity could be more precious than my comprehension of the Thunder Martial Intent?" Chu Nan was momentarily stunned, looking around in confusion before asking.

Kui Guang said, "Aren't you curious why this place is perpetually shrouded by thunderstorms?"

Of course, Chu Nan had pondered over this, but he couldn't figure it out, so he had simply ignored it. However, it now seemed that Kui Guang knew the reason.

Thus, Chu Nan hurriedly asked, "Please, Sword Venerable Master, enlighten me."

Kui Guang's dark and twisted figure reappeared; he stood in front of Chu Nan and said, "Look at the surrounding mountains and rivers; have you noticed anything?"

Chu Nan looked around in confusion. This was the highest peak of the Cliff of Reflection, offering a view over all the surrounding mountains.

But after scanning the area, he found nothing special.

"Please, Sword Venerable Master, speak clearly," Chu Nan sincerely requested.

Kui Guang was not surprised and then said, "These mountains and rivers appear chaotic but actually follow a pattern."

"Using our position as the core, the surrounding peaks act as the backdrop, connecting the energy of the earth's veins to create a special landscape that forms an array, continually attracting divine thunder to strike here."

Upon hearing this, Chu Nan was shocked; he naturally understood what an array was.

It was a method of harnessing the creations of heaven and earth, using minimal resources to unleash power far surpassing one's own, with endless magical functions.

Experienced Array Masters are sometimes even more revered than Pill Masters!

"Could this array, based on the mountains and the earth, be naturally formed or artificial?" If it's artificial, that's truly terrifying.

Kui Guang chuckled lightly and said, "Someone undoubtedly shifted mountains and seas to create this array. Though powerful, it's trivial in this one's eyes."

Chu Nan gained a new understanding of Kui Guang.

But this made him even more perplexed: "Sword Venerable Master, why go to such lengths to create this array just to have lightning strike the mountains? Is there another secret within?"

He knew that with such a commotion, there must be hidden secrets, and those secrets might be the opportunity Kui Guang mentioned!

Kui Guang nodded subtly and said, "You are correct. Finding this secret is not difficult; it's around us, right beneath our feet!"

"Beneath our feet?" Chu Nan looked down, seeing only rocks and an abyss, finding no mystery.

Kui Guang explained, "Thunderbolts are among the most terrifying attack forces, yet they also have the function of dispelling evil spirits and cleansing treasures."

"Beneath the Cliff of Reflection, there might be a hidden treasure, but it could be tainted, requiring daily cleansing by thunderbolts."

"Where we stand is the center of the Cliff of Reflection and the core of the array. The treasure is likely hidden here."

"Use your Spiritual Sense to search around; you might be able to find it."

Chu Nan's heart trembled; according to the Battle Academy's manual, the Cliff of Reflection had existed for over a thousand years.

This meant there might be a treasure here, continually cleansed by thunderbolts for over a millennium.

A treasure capable of enduring such a cleansing for over a thousand years must be incomparably precious...

Following Kui Guang's instructions, Chu Nan immediately used his Spiritual Sense to search around. But after half an hour, his Spiritual Sense nearly covered half the mountain peak, yet still couldn't find the treasure.

"Sword Venerable Master, my Spiritual Sense is not strong enough; I cannot find the Supreme Treasure here," Chu Nan said.

He wasn't disappointed at failing to find the treasure, and Chu Nan wasn't the first to visit the Cliff of Reflection. Many powerful figures had explored here, including Divine Light Realm Martial Artists.

If the Supreme Treasure here were so easily found, it would have been discovered long ago, not waiting for him.

Kui Guang shook his head and sighed, realizing that Chu Nan's soul was still too weak, so he said, "Let me lend you a hand."

With that, Kui Guang directly entered Chu Nan's Sea of Consciousness.

In an instant, the previously calm Sea of Consciousness began to expand rapidly. Chu Nan clearly felt his soul in the Extraordinary Realm start to rapidly ascend, increasing tenfold and beyond.

His Spiritual Sense, in that moment, surpassed even that of a Divine Light Realm Martial Artist, comparable to the Cloud Sea Realm.

In an instant, his Spiritual Sense covered the entire Cliff of Reflection, allowing Chu Nan to easily perceive all secrets here, leaving nothing hidden from his eyes.

At that moment, a thunderbolt descended from the sky, striking down towards Chu Nan.

Chu Nan did not dodge, letting the thunderbolt strike him.

Then he used his powerful Spiritual Sense to observe that, upon striking him, part of the thunderbolt caused him some harm.

And yet, a larger portion of the thunderbolt carried away some of his vitality, spreading through his body into the mountain beneath him, like tree roots extending madly to the deepest part of the mountain!

Eventually, the thunderbolt reached an underground cavern, where Chu Nan clearly sensed the presence of terrifying Spiritual Energy, dozens or even hundreds of times stronger than the outside!

"Found it!" Chu Nan opened his eyes suddenly, excitement immediately appearing within them.

Gripping the Blood Pattern Sword tightly, he slashed fiercely at the rock beneath him, creating a large pit, but it wasn't over.

Chu Nan continued slicing through the rocks with his sword, cutting a nearly hundred-meter-deep passage, and then suddenly, a pathway leading straight underground came into view.

The surface of this pathway was incredibly smooth but utterly dark, clearly gouged out by years of thunderstrikes.

Just follow this path to reach the opportunity hiding the Supreme Treasure.

Kui Guang then retreated from Chu Nan's Sea of Consciousness, restoring it to its original state, and said, "Quickly, the opportunity lies within!"

Chu Nan did not waste any time, using his Roaming Dragon Shocking Wind Step to rapidly proceed towards the deepest part of the highest peak along the pathway.

After walking nearly a thousand meters, even the air began to thin, but Chu Nan's excitement did not diminish because he clearly sensed a faint scent not far from him.

Proceeding about another five hundred meters forward, Chu Nan vaguely saw a silver glow in the distance, prompting him to quicken his pace.

Finally, Chu Nan passed through the pathway and entered a cavern, his eyes lighting up instantly.

This cavern was incredibly spacious, resembling a palace. In its center grew a two-person-high silver ancient tree, bearing five round fruits.

Among the fruits, three were black, one was half-black and half-red, and only one was entirely red, emitting a ripple-like glow.

Kui Guang immediately recognized the treasure here and said, "It's the Silver Saint Celestial Eye Tree. This is truly a good thing for you~"

"The Silver Saint Celestial Eye Tree yields results every three thousand years. These Celestial Eye Fruits should have matured quite some time ago, but possibly due to the growth environment, these five fruits have been eroded by Yin Evil Qi, severely diminishing their effects."

"I don't know who replanted the Silver Saint Celestial Eye Tree here, using celestial thunder to cleanse the Yin Evil Qi, but after plotting for so long, only one fruit has been purified to possess its complete efficacy, and now all of it benefits you."
