A Hundred Generations of Reincarnation

The Bodhi Seed contained an extremely powerful energy. Even with the help of Cao Ying's powerful Heavenly Flame, refining it was no easy task. The refining process lasted for half an hour before the Bodhi Seed turned into a pool of crystal-clear, translucent liquid. Over the next ten minutes, the liquid slowly evaporated, transforming into a stream of pure green air with a faint emerald hue.

This stream of green air permeated out of the flames and finally entered the jade-like trunk of the Ancient Bodhi Tree. As the green air poured in, the Ancient Bodhi Tree trembled, and a faint wisp of black gas quietly seeped out, eventually turning into nothingness and dispersing.

"This won't do, Brother Feng. This refining process consumes too much Dou Qi!" After successfully refining one Bodhi Seed, Cao Ying discovered that her Dou Qi was being consumed at an extremely rapid rate. A single Bodhi Seed had cost her a quarter of her total Dou Qi.

Right at this moment, a cluster of green light shot out from the tree trunk, finally forming an ancient emerald prayer mat at the base of the Ancient Bodhi Tree, right in front of Cao Ying.

"Ying'er, try sitting on it!" Seeing this, Shen Feng smiled and said.

"Mm!" Listening to Shen Feng, Cao Ying elegantly sat down on the prayer mat.

"Boom!"

The moment she touched the ancient prayer mat, Cao Ying's body trembled violently. A terrifyingly pure wave of energy, like a rising tide, flooded into her body. The continuous surge of pure energy caused crackling sounds to echo from her bones. Within just a few breaths, Cao Ying felt that her previously consumed Dou Qi was completely restored, and it was even denser than her previous peak state.

The energy transmitted from this prayer mat was extremely pure, requiring no refining and could be directly converted into Dou Qi for absorption. In other words, the Ancient Bodhi Tree was an inexhaustible source of Dou Qi. As long as she had it, she would never have to worry about running out of energy. Furthermore, during this continuous process of consumption and replenishment, the capacity of the Dou Qi in Cao Ying's body seemed to be expanding, bringing her immense benefits.

"I can continue now!" Cao Ying smiled at Shen Feng, then took another Bodhi Seed and threw it into the flames to refine.

At this moment, Cao Ying was naturally no longer stingy with her Dou Qi, because whenever her energy was depleted, the Ancient Bodhi Tree would immediately replenish it, bringing unimaginable benefits. Within the flames, one Bodhi Seed after another was refined into green air, which enveloped the Ancient Bodhi Tree and purged the black gas within. Thanks to this process, Cao Ying's strength steadily progressed, and her early-stage one-star Dou Sheng cultivation began to grow noticeably.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

At a certain point, along with the dissipation of the final wisp of black gas, the jade-like Ancient Bodhi Tree suddenly let out a low, muffled hum. Suddenly, a brilliant green light erupted, and dazzling beams of green light shot out from the trunk, filling the space and making the vitality of this place even richer.

"Has it been completely cleansed?" Cao Ying looked at the Ancient Bodhi Tree. At this moment, the tree had become even greener than before, and the hidden coldness from earlier had completely vanished. The current Ancient Bodhi Tree gave off a peaceful, sacred, and wise aura.

"Mm, it should be completely clean now!" Just as Shen Feng finished speaking, the Ancient Bodhi Tree erupted with emerald light, like countless tentacles pulling Cao Ying, who was sitting on the prayer mat, close to the trunk. The moment she touched it, the tree trunk rippled like water, and Cao Ying slowly merged inside.

The Ancient Bodhi Tree shook its branches again, and a strange wave of energy rippled out, causing the surrounding space to crack open and spit out the disheveled figures of the others. Shen Feng remained in that space, guarding Cao Ying's side.

The Ancient Bodhi Tree was known as the Tree of Wisdom and Reincarnation. Legend had it that it could make a person experience a miraculous Hundred Generations of Reincarnation. Those who underwent this trial would gain the potential to step into the Dou Di realm. This was a grand opportunity for Cao Ying.

"It's Shen Feng and Cao Ying, the champion of the Pill Gathering!"

"Damn it, how did the two of them manage to seize this heavenly opportunity!"

"No, if I can't have it, no one else will!"

The members of the Hun Clan in another area could see where Shen Feng and Cao Ying were standing, their hearts filled with envy. But no matter what they did, they could not shake the Ancient Bodhi Tree in the slightest, unable to stop Cao Ying from receiving the inheritance of a hundred lifetimes.

...

Half a month later, Cao Ying finally woke up from her profound state. Her cultivation had now progressed to the late-stage one-star Dou Sheng realm, and it would not be long before she could step into the two-star Dou Sheng realm. This was a terrifying advancement, as an ordinary one-star Dou Sheng would take hundreds of years to go from the early stage to the late stage, yet Cao Ying had only taken half a month.

Very quickly, Cao Ying and Shen Feng appeared in the space where the Hun Clan, Gu Clan, and Yan Clan were standing.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

Right at this moment, soft, muffled hums echoed from within the Ancient Bodhi Tree. Suddenly, emerald spots of light shot out like celestial flowers, floating in mid-air.

"Bodhi Seeds!" Seeing these spots of light, everyone was first stunned, then cried out in unison with astonishment. "They are actually all Bodhi Seeds!"

Hun Yu and the others also looked at the emerald spots of light in shock. It was truly unimaginable; Bodhi Seeds were incredibly rare in the outside world, yet here, the Ancient Bodhi Tree had spat out more than twenty at once.

"Snatch them!" After the initial shock, everyone's eyes turned red. Powerful Dou Qi erupted as they transformed into streaks of light, frantically rushing forward to grab the green spots of light.

While everyone was fighting for them, the emerald spots of light floating in mid-air seemed to be summoned. With a whoosh, they escaped the grasp of the crowd and gathered like lightning toward the outstretched hands of Shen Feng and Cao Ying.

"Thank you for the gift, Brother Bodhi!" Shen Feng smiled, completely ignoring the red, envious glares of the surrounding crowd.
