Chapter 2028
Encountering an ancient venerable one in Jade Valley, a strange fragrance conceals danger and reveals the wonders of creation.
"The Ten Celestial Fragrance Physiques of the Immortal Ancient Era?" A scene instantly flashed in Chen Xuan's mind—ten ethereal fairies standing on the clouds of the Immortal Ancient Era, their beauty unparalleled, their arrogance soaring to the heavens, and the celestial fragrance surrounding them capable of eclipsing the sun and moon.
Chen Xuan pressed on with great curiosity, "This isn't exactly a secret. Little Tower, tell me, what are the Ten Heavenly Fragrance Bodies of the Immortal Ancient Era? Are they very powerful?"
Seeing Chen Xuan's expectant expression, Xiao Ta snorted and said, "Seeing how diligent and eager you are to learn, I'll tell you: They are:
Merit and Holy Body
Fragrant and alluring body,
Pity the Blood Demon Body
The fragrant body of the Jade Terrace
Crimson pearls, glistening with dew,
Forget-Me-Not Purple Lotus Body
Cold Soul Ice Orchid Body
"The bone-corroding musk and sandalwood body... and ten others, in no particular order, without any ranking."
Xiaota continued, "Each of these things I've mentioned carries a unique fragrance. Of course, each race also has its own unique methods, and some people have mastered them to an extremely difficult and troublesome level."
"Wow, just hearing the name sounds amazing. I wonder if these are the physiques awakened by those ancient and supreme immortal beings?" Chen Xuan rubbed his hands together. Although he had been cultivating and living in this world for nearly three hundred years, his understanding of this starry universe was only a drop in the ocean.
"Kid, stop daydreaming." Xiaota's voice interrupted his thoughts. "During the Immortal Ancient Era, only five of those who awakened the Ten Heavenly Fragrance Physiques were female cultivators. I've only seen two: one was a special innate life form, and the other was a Source Star cultivator. It's far from the 'cluster of fairies' you're thinking of."
"Huh?" Chen Xuan was so shocked he almost choked. "So, most of those who awaken this physique are men? Doesn't that make them 'Tang Monk's flesh' that all cultivators are fighting over?"
"What utter nonsense!" Little Tower said with disdain. "Stop spouting this useless information. This strange fragrance is extraordinary. It's most likely the aura of a celestial treasure left behind by a fallen quasi-emperor, or perhaps the domain naturally emanating from their eternally immortal bodies. Kid, do you want to go and investigate?"
Chen Xuan stroked his chin, his tone somewhat matter-of-fact: "Since we're already here, why would we miss out?"
"Haha, I admire your fearless spirit." Little Tower laughed and reminded him, "But let me make this clear beforehand, since this strange fragrance comes from the physical body of a powerful being, there must be many dangers around it, so you have to be extra careful."
"What's there to be afraid of?" Chen Xuan smirked, feigning indifference. "If I die, I'll have your and the Enlightenment Tree's primordial spirits buried with me, so it's a sure win."
"Kid, you dare to bluff me?" Xiao Ta's tone instantly turned cold, carrying a hint of threat.
Chen Xuan stopped talking. Though his words were tough, his actions betrayed him. His body instantly shimmered with a white, transparent, glassy light. He had pushed his sixth-level Battle Glass Body to its limit. Pearly brilliance flowed across his skin, as if he were wrapped in a layer of lustrous jade. He held a Beiming sword in each hand, the blades pointing diagonally at the ground. His divine sense spread out like a spider web, vigilantly scanning the surrounding movements.
Xiaota also put aside his joking thoughts and took the initiative to release his divine sense to explore the surroundings, afraid of missing any abnormalities.
The person and the tower flew deeper into the fragrance, about three thousand miles away. The fragrance became stronger and stronger. At first, it smelled refreshing and invigorating, but now it seemed to have become a tangible thing, penetrating the nasal cavity and seeping into the pores. Even the breath was filled with an indelible sweetness.
Chen Xuan even felt that if he were to fart right now, it would carry this strange fragrance.
"Ugh—" He couldn't help but cover his mouth and gag, his face turning pale. "What's wrong? It smells really good from a distance, but when I get close, I feel uncomfortable all over, and even my head feels dizzy."
Seeing Chen Xuan's eyes glaze over, his once sharp gaze gradually becoming unfocused, as if his soul had been ripped away, Xiao Ta felt a pang of anxiety—and immediately unleashed a pale golden bolt of lightning, which struck Chen Xuan's head with a "crack."
"Hiss!" Chen Xuan was jolted by the lightning, his hair stood on end, and his mind cleared instantly. All the strange thoughts that had been lingering in his mind—such as "it would be good to just lie down and sleep" and "death would be a relief"—vanished without a trace.
