Chapter 229: The Illusory Sea Domain

Chapter 229: The Illusory Sea Domain

Within the empty space in Xiao Ze's body, the Source Tree emitted a strong golden light, illuminating the entire empty space.

With the continuous influx of energy from the outside world, the surface of the Source Tree flowed with powerful energy.

However, it seemed to have hit some kind of bottleneck, as the Source Tree's diameter was no longer growing, stopping just before reaching a hundred meters.

Within the Source Tree, Xiao Ze's soul, in human form, slightly frowned.

"It has been stuck just before the hundred meters for a whole day. If I don't manage to advance today, even the energy from the medicinal pond will be exhausted."

Xiao Ze could feel that the hundred-meter diameter was a bottleneck. If he managed to break through it, all his abilities would improve considerably.

"Well, I can't rush it. Although the medicinal pond might not provide the energy to break this bottleneck, in this Alchemy World there is no lack of heaven and earth energy or rare herbs. I must calm down, I will eventually break through."

Just as Xiao Ze stopped obsessing over breaking the bottleneck, the Source Tree began to show signs of movement.

The soul residing in the Source Tree was the first to notice. The diameter of the Source Tree had slightly expanded.

But just a little was enough to overcome the obstacle that had lasted a whole day!

"Finally, I surpassed the hundred-meter diameter!"

Xiao Ze slowly opened his eyes, and in the next moment, the entire great hall filled with a light blue energy.

"With my current ability to control energy, within this space filled with blue energy, I can do many things!"

With a thought from Xiao Ze, the void in front of him began to distort, as if something too heavy for the space to support was there.

In the next instant, the space shattered loudly, revealing a fist-sized hole.

"This is similar to when I entered the Illusory Sea."

"That unparalleled pressure was something I couldn't withstand at that time."

"Now, however, I can replicate it. Although the Illusory Sea Spiritual Pearls I absorbed play a role, a high level of energy control is also required."

"With my current cultivation level, I can easily crush a Dou Zong expert with this."

"Even Dou Zun experts would feel immense pressure. Additionally, I can mix the calamity's toxic force into this."

"With just these two techniques, I would already have the possibility of killing a low-star Dou Zun."

Xiao Ze enjoyed trying various ways to use his power in this energy space.

"This can be considered a combat technique. I'll call it... Illusory Sea Domain. This effect is due to the Illusory Sea Spiritual Pearls I absorbed earlier."

"The main thing is that this combat technique can improve as my power increases. Perhaps, when I become a saint, this technique could advance to the level of a celestial combat technique."

"No wonder the Ocean Saint said that the Illusory Sea Spiritual Pearls are a treasure desired even by saints."

Xiao Ze now deeply understood the Ocean Saint's words.

Xiao Ze stood up and stretched a bit. Absorbing the energy from the medicinal pond had taken quite some time, and Qing Lin's soul mark hadn't been activated, indicating there were no problems.

Xiao Ze took out a medallion, and a spatial vortex appeared. However, the sensation at the other end of the vortex made Xiao Ze raise his eyebrows slightly.

"That little one has also come?"

Xiao Ze stepped out, and before he could react, a small figure jumped straight into his arms.

"Xiao Ze!"

Bam!

Feeling the real impact, Xiao Ze shook his head resignedly and gently patted Zi Yan's head.

"Are you trying to kill me?"

"Of course not. If you died, who would make me those delicious pills?"

Zi Yan smiled shyly and didn't move from Xiao Ze's embrace. She looked up with a doubtful expression.

"I feel like your body is now more terrifying than mine."

"You must be mistaken. I am a pure human; I don't have such a terrifying body."

Xiao Ze responded casually.

Zi Yan sniffed the air around Xiao Ze, confirming that his scent was of a pure human, with no traces of a magical beast. But Xiao Ze's body...

Seeing Zi Yan still worried, Xiao Ze pinched her cheek.

"By the way, how has it been in the Ancient Taixu Dragon Tribe?"

"Not great. Those old folks always make me eat horrible things. Although they have a lot of energy, they're not as delicious as the pills you make."

Zi Yan frowned, a sly glint in her eyes.

"Alright, alright. While you were away, I didn't make many pills, but I still have some in reserve."

Xiao Ze took out several jade bottles. Zi Yan's eyes lit up, and she immediately swallowed several pills.

Feeling the taste release in her mouth and the abundant energy sliding down her throat, Zi Yan showed an expression of happiness.

"Delicious!"

After eating all the pills from one bottle, Zi Yan licked her lips in satisfaction and introduced Xiong Zhan.

Xiong Zhan, seeing that he was finally remembered, smiled resignedly.

However, he was not impatient. After all, he couldn't measure Xiao Ze's strength.

"Xiao Ze, this is Xiong Zhan. I call him Big Bear. He is the leader of the Ten Thousand Medicine Ridge. You can ask him for any herbs you need."

"Big Bear, this is Xiao Ze. He is someone very close to me. Remember, his words are like my words."

Zi Yan introduced them casually. Xiao Ze, on the other hand, was more courteous and bowed to Xiong Zhan.

"So this is Mr. Xiong Zhan. Zi Yan can be a bit capricious, so please be patient with her."

"Ha, ha, no problem." Xiong Zhan smiled broadly at Xiao Ze's words.

Xiong Zhan thought Xiao Ze knew how to speak. In a few words, he already felt comfortable. It had been quite difficult to serve the little miss.

However, his smile stopped when Zi Yan stared at him.

"Ahem, don't be so formal. Call me big brother Xiong Zhan."

"Big brother Xiong Zhan."

"Ha, ha, when you go to the Ten Thousand Medicine Ridge, just say what you need."

Xiong Zhan slapped his chest enthusiastically. Zi Yan rolled her eyes and said.

"It should be that way. Any herb he needs, you must give it to him. Maybe, if he's in a good mood, he'll make some pills for you and help you advance to the Dou Zun level. Xiao Ze is an eighth-grade alchemist."

Zi Yan had already heard about Xiao Ze's feats from Qing Lin.

Xiong Zhan had also heard, but he had doubts about Xiao Ze, so young, being an eighth-grade alchemist.

However, now seeing him in person, Xiong Zhan thought it wasn't impossible, since he couldn't see through Xiao Ze.
