Dark Parasol Sapling

One of Chen xi's Artifacts (Other than the River Diagram).

With Yu Lin's help, Chen Xi was able to capture this priceless treasure. Using this treasre, Chen Xi doesn't need to rely on spirit pills to cultivate or battle. Moreover, this strand of soul has fused with his Blackhole World,making his cultivation experiences much easier. After Chen Xi advances to the Earthly Immortal Realm, it will even bring enormous and unforeseen benefits. The Dark Parasol Divine Tree is worthy of being the bridge that connected the Mortal Dimension and Immortal Dimension in the primeval times. Merely a strand of its soul possesses such heaven defying and terrifying effects, and it’s simply unimaginable and astonishing.

This sapling of the Dark Parasol Divine Tree was able to give Chen Xi two types of benefits. The first was that it would ceaselessly replenish his True Essence, causing him to have no need to worry about his True Essence drying up. The second was that it would make his path of cultivation become much easier, smoother, and safer.

## History

The Dark Parasol Divine Tree was a towering divine tree of the primeval times. This tree converged the brands of the Grand Daos of the world, and every single branch and leaf on it contained the marks of the Heaven Dao. It was so tall that it led directly to the Immortal Dimension, and it was an extraordinary and miraculous bridge that linked up the Mortal Dimension and the Immortal Dimension. Later on, after experiencing a calamity that affected the three dimensions, this tree was destroyed.

The existence of the Dark Parasol Divine Tree was like a bridge that linked up the Immortal Dimension and the Mortal Dimension. It innately possessed a body of the Dao and grasped the energy of creation, causing it to surpass all the living beings in the world. However, when that calamity that affected the three dimensions arrives, even it was unable to surmount this calamity with its extremely high ability. So it joined forces with another supreme being and seized a trace of an opportunity to survive. Even though its body had perished, yet a trace of its soul survived in the end. Just think about it. It was the soul of a divine tree of the primeval times that had once linked up the Immortal Dimension with the Mortal Dimension. Even though it was only a strand, it would probably cause the gods of the three dimensions to go mad!

During the primeval times, the Dark Parasol Divine Tree that was born at the very beginning of the world and connected the Immortal Dimension and Mortal Dimension was affected by an unexpected change in the heavens and the earth, and it perished within the Dark Parasol’s Abyss. It was also from then onwards that the cultivators of the Mortal Dimension had to experience tribulations before they could ascend into the Immortal Dimension.

Most people are unaware the that Dark Parasol Divine Tree was the place where the Phoenix Clan's Founding Ancestor attained the Dao. The Founding Ancestor of the Phoenix Clan was naturally the legendary Chaotic True Phoenix, and it was a terrifying existence that was born in the chaos at the very beginning of the world before the primeval times.

The Phoenix Clan have always taken the Dark Parasol Divine Tree to be their Ancestral Grounds. Unfortunately, along with the great calamity all those years ago, all the living beings of the Phoenix Clan haven’t had the chance to see their Ancestral Grounds again.  Besides being the Ancestral Grounds of the Phoenix Clan, it's implied that the myriad of cultivation techniques of the Phoenix Clan came from the Dark Parasol Divine Tree.

## Progress

The Dark Parasol Sapling couldn’t be compared to the past now. The essence of the 100,000 year old piece of Dark Parasol wood that Zhao Taici had grown herself had been absorbed by the Dark Parasol Sapling. Presently, even though the size of the Dark Parasol Sapling was still tiny as before, it seemed to be like a mature Dark Parasol Divine Tree. Its crown was verdant, its roots strong, and every single leaf on it carried an extremely mysterious and complete Dao marking that emanated verdant brilliance of divinity. When placed within his body, Chen Xi was able to clearly sense that the Immortal Energy emanated by the Dark Parasol Sapling carried strands of the aura of divinity, and it caused the vital energy in Chen Xi’s entire body to receive extraordinary benefits at all times.
