409 The Lake Water is Holy Medicine
Qin Chen heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed like he did not need to fight anymore.
The old wyrm was simply too powerful. Even the Chaotic Divine Body and the innate sword embryo were no match for it. He barely managed to block one attack from the other party and almost lost his life. As such, he was naturally unwilling to fight with the old wyrm.
After all, the old wyrm was a very powerful and terrifying existence. The fact that it was able to reach such a realm was a testament to its strength.
How could such a powerful being be ordinary?
Therefore, even if Qin Chen wanted to cooperate with the old wyrm, he also had to be careful of the latter backstabbing him.
It was easy to dodge an open scheme, but hard to defend against a hidden trap. If he really fell into the hands of this old wyrm, it would be too late for regrets.
Qin Chen looked at the old wyrm and nodded. He then asked, “Are there any other terrifying existences under the surface of this lake? ”
The old wyrm shook its head. It had killed all of them.
The void secret realm was a place it needed very much, and it could not let outsiders know about it.
If everyone knew that there was a void secret realm on this ancient planet and learn that the ancient tree of life was in the void secret realm, it would certainly attract countless experts.
At that time, no matter how powerful it was, it would not be able to fight against so many cultivators.
That being said, a former expert had managed to obtain some benefits from this place. He managed to get a branch from the ancient tree of life before leaving.
The old wyrm was furious whenever it thought of this.
Qin Chen nodded when he saw how frank the old wyrm was.
He then looked at the outside world since he had no idea what was going on outside.
He had too many questions to ask the old wyrm.
Since the old wyrm had been cultivating beside the ancient tree of life, could it probably know about the unknown sounds coming from the spatial rift at another spatial node on the ancient star?
Qin Chen didn’t want to rush in and lose his life before he could even react.
He asked the old wyrm, who nodded and told him everything it knew.
It turned out that the unknown voice in the void crack was something left behind by a terrifying existence who had great strength.
Some people didn’t believe in the terror and wanted to try their luck. In the end, they simply lost their little lives inside.
Qin Chen was thinking that if he could find out where the unknown voice came from, he might be able to find a chance to live.
After all, this terrifying unknown voice had been urging them to go over. It was hard for them not to have doubts.
It was possible that the unknown voice was trying to kill Qin Chen and the others.
The old wyrm explained. It turned out that it had entered this place by chance. At that time, it was only a wyrm who had just broken through to the Sage realm. Back then, it hadn’t even grown a dragon’s beard when it followed its master here.
In the end, its master died a tragic death in the mouth of the terrifying existence under the lake, leaving the wyrm here.
At that time, the void secret realm had been bustling with living beings. Unfortunately, the old wyrm had ultimately devoured all those living creatures to make a breakthrough faster.
After the wyrm became stronger, none of the creatures was a match for it, and it successfully ate them all.
After that, the old wyrm broke through again and again. Then, in his current realm, he reached a bottleneck.
Only by taking that last step could it possibly become even more powerful and become an existence above the Great God realm.
If one reached that realm, where could one be forbidden to go?
Moreover, with the body of a true dragon, many dragon races would naturally come to recognize it as their patriarch. By then, the old wyrm could even establish a faction and make the various dragon races its subordinates.
At that time, it would be truly free and unfettered. Unfortunately, all of this was built on the premise that it had broken through to the realm above the Great God realm.
However, the bottleneck that it had encountered could not be broken at all. It was indeed as Qin Chen had expected. If the old wyrm had truly obtained the ancient tree of life’s benefits, it would certainly not have been stuck at this cultivation bottleneck.
In other words, the ancient tree of life was not something that an ordinary person could get close to. Even if the old wyrm waited an eternity and died of old age in there, the seal-like power would still not dissipate.
At the thought of this, the old wyrm sent a voice transmission to Qin Chen. Both of them could understand each other’s thoughts, so they quickly realized that it turned out that the ancient tree of life was being protected by some kind of power. What kind of power could it be?
Qin Chen and the others could not help but think of the mysterious power that had killed the blood wyrm race expert.
Only such a powerful technique could protect the ancient tree of life.
The old wyrm nodded. It had lived in this secret realm for more than half its life as per its memory. All of it was only to obtain the benefits of the ancient tree of life. After all, with the help of the ancient tree of life’s power, the old wyrm would certainly be able to break through the final step, and like a carp leaping over the dragon’s gate, transform from a wyrm into a true dragon between heaven and earth.
At that time, it would be able to leave the void secret realm.
The old wyrm sized up Qin Chen. It seemed to be hesitating whether the latter had the ability to break the ancient tree of life’s seal.
As long as they could break the seal open, just obtaining a branch or a leaf from the ancient tree of life would bring great benefit.
After all, everything on the ancient tree of life was a treasure, supreme treasure at that.
If the old wyrm could refine such a precious item, it would be able to quickly break through to the realm above the Great God realm. This was already the limit that some true dragons could reach.
Although true dragons were born in the Sage realm, they still needed to cultivate.
Looking at the extreme emperor weapon in Qin Chen’s hand, the old wyrm gladly agreed to join forces with the other party to obtain the benefits of the ancient tree of Life.
Whether or not it could break through the most critical step and become a divine beast of the true dragon’s bloodline would depend on this.
The old wyrm did not expect that Qin Chen would be able to see through its situation with a single glance and know that it could not obtain the ancient tree of life itself.
Otherwise, the old wyrm wouldn’t have been stuck in a bottleneck. It simply couldn’t break through, so it could only wait.
This time, it wanted to see if it could obtain the benefits of the ancient tree of life with Qin Chen and the others.
The old wyrm really wanted to break through.
Speaking of which, this lake also had a very mysterious power, but Qin Chen and the others had not discovered it yet.
The old wyrm naturally knew about this. It said to Qin Chen and the rest, “The water in this lake is better than ordinary healing medicine.”
