But Shen Qian still felt something was missing.
He kept in mind that his main purpose in entering the Pagoda of Myriad Images was to elevate his spiritual realm.
Since the difficulty of the first twenty-nine levels was lowered before the event, the challenge was not very challenging. The original plan of the event organizer was to make up for it with this "special reward".
Along the way, the only thing that truly moved him was a book of illustrations said to have been left behind by Nuwa, which was said to be of great help in "enlightenment".
[I highly recommend Yeguo Reading; it's really good for tracking books. You can download it here: yeguoyuedu. Give it a try!]
However, Shen Qian did not rush to make a decision. He planned to wait and see what happened, since there was no time limit.
As you continue forward, the tree canopies on both sides begin to thin out, and at the end of this wishing well, a taller tree suddenly appears.
This tree was clearly different from the others, because there were no treasures on its crown, but rather three crystal-clear fruits had suddenly appeared on its branches.
The three fruits displayed different shades of azure, bright silver, and earthy yellow; from the first glance, Shen Qian couldn't take his eyes off them.
Because he suddenly realized that the "Dao" he had been stuck on for so long was showing signs of loosening at this moment.
He looked up and saw the text above the tree.
"Dao Fruit - formed from a portion of the Daoist essence left behind by the first king, its effects are impossible to assess."
The brief written description caught Shen Qian's eye.
Although he didn't know what the Dao Fruit was, and the will of the Myriad Manifestations Tower was clearly unable to assess its level, the fact that these three Dao Fruits were placed at the very end of the Wishing Well was enough to show that their value far surpassed all the treasures in the Wishing Well.
Furthermore, Shen Qian had seen a man in white talking with a group of kings and nobles in the starry sky.
It's not hard to deduce from their words that this fruit is an extremely precious item; otherwise, there would be no need to seal it with the Myriad Manifestations Pagoda.
There were so many first-generation kings and nobles present at the time, but now only three Dao Fruits appeared in front of Shen Qian. Shen Qian was not sure if it was because the other Dao Fruits had been picked by others, or because his accumulated rewards were still not enough, so he could only see these three Dao Fruits.
Putting aside distractions, I stepped closer to examine it more closely.
These three crystal-clear fruits are of different shapes, and each fruit has its own unique charm: the azure blue is deep and profound, the bright silver is ethereal, and the earthy yellow is solid and substantial, clearly representing the different styles of the three kings.
"Whose 'Dao Fruit' is this?"
He asked before sinking in.
The goddess of will did not speak, but names appeared next to the three fruits.
Upon closer inspection, Chen Qian realized that only one of the three kings was from abroad, while the other two were kings from China.
The foreign king should be from Northern Europe, named "Odin". Shen Qian remembered that when he was studying world history, this Odin had quite a few achievements. At least in terms of his status abroad, he was no less than the first nine kings of China.
But Shen Qian was clearly not interested in his Dao fruit.
After all, he himself is Chinese. Even if the principles are the same, there are still various cultural barriers.
He will surely achieve twice the result with half the effort by directly comprehending the Dao Fruit of the Chinese kings and nobles.
The two kings of China were, one was the King of Zhenbei, whom Shen Qian was already quite familiar with, and the other was the King of Yanling, whom Shen Qian had only recently become quite familiar with.
Shen Qian received inheritances from both of these kings, but the inheritance given to him by the King of Words was more complete.
Therefore, after only a brief moment of thought, Shen Qian immediately made a decision.
"I want the 'Tao Fruit' of the King of Words!"
"The will of the goddess of sinking forward," said the goddess.
With the personal guidance of the Word Spirit King, Shen Qian has reached the entry level in "Words become Laws," but this is, after all, a great path of manipulating rules, and it may take a long time for Shen Qian to cultivate it to the ultimate level.
If it were to absorb the Dao Fruit of the King of Words, perhaps there would be a different effect.
"As you wish."
With a wave of her hand, the goddess of will indifferently caused the silver Dao fruits on the tree to fall down.
He quickly reached out and caught it before it sank.
The fruit didn't have a firm texture; instead, it was as soft as water and quite pleasant to touch.
Shen Qian subconsciously pinched it, then pinched it again.
"By the way, can I just digest this fruit here before I leave?"
Shen Qian originally intended to store the Dao Fruit directly into the spatial crystal, but after trying, he discovered that the Dao Fruit could not be stored at all.
If he were to take the Dao Fruit directly out of the tower, Shen Qian worried that its incredibly rich Dao aura might cause some trouble.
As the number one secret realm of the human race, it's obvious that the Tower of Myriad Manifestations must be guarded by kings and nobles.
"Can."
With a wave of her hand, the surrounding forest and all the treasures began to recede.
In the blink of an eye, this place transformed into a quiet stone platform, perfect for cultivation.
After expressing his gratitude before sinking, the figure of the Goddess of Will vanished.
Before sinking in, he first took a dose of a potion to restore his mental energy and replenish the energy he had consumed during the previous challenge. Then, he sat cross-legged, held his breath, and swallowed the silver Dao Fruit in one gulp.
boom!
Shen Qian was still wondering what it would taste like, but the moment he ate the "Dao Fruit," an immense energy exploded in his mind, which even Shen Qian's powerful mental strength couldn't withstand.
His consciousness had been drifting for an unknown amount of time until a light, melodious voice rang out.
"The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao."
The words, taken from the classic Chinese text "Tao Te Ching," instantly cleared Shen Qian's mind and jolted him awake.
