2195 Grass of God KingGrabbing onto the face of the cliff tightly, Zhang Xuan slowly climbed his way down the abyss.There was an unnerving pressure that came from the depths of the abyss that seemed to threaten to swallow him whole, so he did not dare lower his guard.Proceeding downward, the pendant lying in front of his chest grew hotter and hotter, to the point that he felt like it would meld into him. It was also becoming extremely arduous for him to drive his Heaven’s Path zhenqi.It felt like this abyss was the very antithesis of his cultivation technique.“Pathos of Heaven!”. Finally, it came to a point where Zhang Xuan was forced to circulate the even purer Pathos of Heaven zhenqi, and the pressure vanished. Heaving a sigh of relief, he continued downward.Tzzz!After advancing a little further, he suddenly felt surges of gray energy flowing discreetly into his body.“So, this is where it came from”Having expected such a situation in advance, Zhang Xuan was able to keep his cool. He quickly channeled his Heaven’s Path zhenqi toward the gray energy, and the collision of the two produced a brilliant green light within his body.The glowing Zhang Xuan amid the pitch-black abyss made him seem as though he was a deity descending upon a land of doom.As he went deeper, the surges of gray energy grew more numerous, and the rate at which he had to expend his Heaven’s Path zhenqi increased at a terrifying rate. The surrounding space also began showing hints of instability, wavering a little here and there.“It might get dangerous if I continue like this” Zhang Xuan’s hands and feet finally came to a halt.He was capable of flight, so he did not have to worry about falling into the abyss.What he was really concerned about was the instability in space. If he ventured deeper in, he could become mired within spatial turbulence and vortices.

With his current cultivation, it would be hard for him to withstand such powerful forces of nature.“I’ll stop here for a moment and refine all of my zhenqi to the Pathos of Heaven zhenqi first”After a moment of hesitation, Zhang Xuan took out the God King Sword and gouged out a small cavern in the cliff face before sitting down in it.He had spent a few hours getting down to this point, so he was reluctant to leave without having uncovered anything at all. Since the gray surges of energy were able to neutralize his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, it would be good for him to use them to refine his zhenqi, such that only the Pathos of Heaven zhenqi was left.He began drawing the gray surges of energy into his body and channeled his Heaven’s Path zhenqi against them. It took roughly two hours for him to expend all his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, leaving behind only the Pathos of Heaven’s zhenqi.“I don’t even have a hundredth of the amount of zhenqi I used to have now”Previously, when the two types of zhenqi were still fused together, they formed a massive ocean within his dantian, supplying him with an almost never-ending source of energy. However, with the neutralization of all his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, the amount of energy left within the ocean was not even a hundredth of before.He had no idea whether it was a good thing for him to have refined all his zhenqi so quickly.In any case, with the absence of his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, the pressure from the gray surges of energy also vanished, so it seemed like it was doing him some good at the moment.He walked over to the entrance of the cavern and glanced downward contemplatively. It was a while before he made up his mind and continued to climb downward. Soon, he arrived before a spatial vortex.This was a region where space flowed as easily as fluid, making it impossible for even God Kings to pass through such a region normally.

Zhang Xuan took out a high-tier Celestial God artifact and stretched it toward the spatial vortex.Weng!The sword immediately began bending along with the flow of space, as if it had fallen into a distorting mirror.Alarmed, Zhang Xuan quickly took out the sword from the vortex. Examining the sword’s condition, he realized that the bent areas could not be fixed anymore, and the spirit within the sword had been destroyed as well.“Stability of space is one of the fundamental requirements for life to exist.

Even if it was possible for a lifeform to adapt to such an environment, it would also be distorted to become completely different from what is was before”Zhang Xuan knew that he would likely end up like this sword if he got caught in the spatial vortex. Heaving a deep sigh of helplessness, he was just about to start climbing when he noticed something bobbing up and down within the spatial vortex, forming ripples all around.Perplexed, Zhang Xuan activated his Eye of Insight to take a closer look.Within the spatial vortex, there were a few intriguing plants rooted on the cliff face. They would move alongside the flow of the spatial vortex.“It’s actually possible for life to thrive in such an environment?” Zhang Xuan was shocked. The spatial vortex was filled with many different currents that flowed in different directions, such that any lifeform that fell into it would be pulled in innumerable directions, causing their form to distort.Even with his current cultivation, Zhang Xuan had no confidence in defending against the forces of the spatial vortex. Yet, those plants were able to survive under such circumstances.

Why was that so?“Could it be thatthe plants over there is the Grass of God King? Is that it?”Previously, when he heard about the existence of such a herb from his student, he had thought that it was impossible. However, he was starting to see the plausibility of it now.One of the distinctive traits of a God King was his comprehension over spatial laws, and the fact that this grass was able to survive amid a spatial vortex showed that it had adapted to distortions in the spatial laws.If one could forge this grass into a pill and swallow them, it would indeed boost one’s chances to become a God King.“The only problem is that how can I obtain them?” Zhang Xuan frowned.Those plants were not too deep within the spatial vortex, but the problem was that he could not even afford to get in contact with it. How was he supposed to retrieve those plants?If he could not obtain them, it would be futile no matter how valuable those plants were!“Little Chick, I have something I need you to help me do!” Zhang Xuan began communicating with the little yellow chick in his dantian.

The latter had already reached the God King realm, and it possessed an undying body. It might be able to get those plants for him.“I was sleeping!” Little Chick exclaimed grudgingly before coming out of Zhang Xuan’s dantian. It looked at the sight beneath it, and its beady eyes narrowed in confusion. “This place I seem to have been here before”“You have been here before?” Zhang Xuan frowned. “Did you remember something?”All this while, Little Chick had been saying that it was a legendary beast that ruled over the lands, but it had never been able to figure out what it was exactly. Even after it made a breakthrough to God King, it had still been unable to recall anything related to its heritage.Could this spatial vortex be the key to triggering its memories?“Not really.

I just find this sight particularly familiar” Little Chick cocked its head to the side as it racked its head to form associations. In the end, it threw its tiny wings into the air in frustration and cried, “Nothing is coming to me at all!

Forget it, I shan’t think about it anymore. I’ll surely recall everything once I regain my cultivation. Oh right, so why did you call me out here?”If there was nothing up, its master usually would not disturb it.“I suspect that the plant within the spatial vortex is Grass of God Kings, a herb that can help one to make a breakthrough to the God King realm.

I can’t retrieve it with my current level of cultivation, so I’m wondering if it’s possible for you to do it.”“The plants over there?” Little Chick pondered for a moment before nodding a little. “It seems possible for that to be the case. The plant is indeed a little bizarre”“Un. Are you able to get it?” Zhang Xuan asked. “I just need you to harvest it, not to eat it.”Little Chick was known to be extremely greedy when it came to food. If it rushed over and gobbled up all the plants well, he could not possibly put his hand into Little Chick’s mouth and dig those plants out, right?He would rather remain a Celestial God for life than do something as disgusting as thatLittle Chick looked at Zhang Xuan and replied, “Of course, I am already a God King realm expert, you know!

That thing is no longer useful to me Don’t worry, I won’t eat it I’ll just try one blade of grass to see how it tastes. If it isn’t nice, I won’t eat it anymore Why are you looking at me like that?

There is more than one blade of grass down there, right?”Zhang Xuan looked at Little Chick speechlessly before eventually nodding helplessly. “Alright, go and do whatever you need. However, this spatial vortex seems a little odd.

If you encounter any danger, make sure to retreat at once.”That Grass of God King was nothing in comparison to Little Chick. If obtaining the Grass of God King would place the latter in danger, he did not want them at all.

A can be found growing in the mound of rubble near the center of the room, an allegory of Princess Zelda's love of research over her regal duties.The spire at the top of the Study's tower hides a Korok which can be found by climbing the spire and examining the glowing cluster of leaves floating near it.Sanctum.

The exterior of the SanctumThe Sanctum was formerly the throne room for the, which sits near the top of the central tower of Hyrule Castle. Even in its ruined condition, it is heavily decorated with banners, statues, and carpets. The floor of the Sanctum is decorated with a circular pattern with the symbol of the engraved in the center, and the positioned in the center of each respective Triforce piece while the sits in the negative space created by the triangles. The metal decoration above the throne bears the symbol of the Triforce and a circular music scale depicting '. The Sanctum is a multi-tiered structure featuring several floors extending above the base level. The middle floor of the Sanctum bisects it, bearing a circular recess which has since been occupied by a fusion of Malice and ancient Sheikah technology resembling a corrupted form of the technology found in the. This mix of Malice and Sheikah technology suspend Calamity Ganon above the circular pattern on the base floor of the Sanctum, which can be better seen from the upper floors of the Sanctum.

A broken, inactive can be seen suspended from this Malice-covered ceiling. Outward from the throne and overlooking the main floor, there are two which can be lit, but if Link steps further towards the nearby raised floor, the battle with Ganon will initiate. The interior of the Sanctum's first floorA small, cut log on the southern portion of the Sanctum's roof activates a timed puzzle, creating a ring on the spire just south of it. If Link reaches it in time, a Korok will appear and give him a Korok Seed for finding him. A second Korok can be found in the bell tower far above the Sanctum, hidden by a balloon which must be popped. A third can be found on the spire at the very top of Hyrule Castle, far above the Sanctum.

Due to the sheer height of this spire, the is freezing, requiring Link to use at least one method of cold resistance. The bell tower also hosts a stone Treasure Chest which contains five Ancient Arrows.Following the Great Calamity, Princess Zelda used her newly-awakened sealing power to contain Calamity Ganon within the interior of the Sanctum where he bides his time and gathers strength to escape her grasp. If Link enters the lower floors of the Sanctum without having defeated any of the beasts controlling each of the Divine Beasts, Calamity Ganon will summon them from their position inside the Divine Beasts to fight against Link. They will consistently appear in the order of,. If Link defeated any of them prior to entering the Sanctum, they will not appear and Ganon will summon the next in the sequence. Upon their collective defeat, Calamity Ganon will break free from Zelda's sealing magic, bursting the Malice-like container dangling from the ceiling before descending upon the Sanctum's floor.

Due to Calamity Ganon's weight, the fall breaks the floor of the Sanctum, casting both him and Link down into a deep pit ending in the.Laboratory. Link inside the LaboratoryThe is the chamber in which Calamity Ganon is fought. It is a hollow, hemispherical chamber made from ancient Sheikah technology situated far beneath the Sanctum. Scattered on the floor along the walls of the Laboratory are various items which can assist Link in the fight against Calamity Ganon. These items are: a bundle of 10 Bomb Arrows, a Royal Broadsword, a Royal Shield, a bundle of five Arrows, a Royal Bow, a Royal Halberd and a Royal Claymore.Following Calamity Ganon's escape from Princess Zelda's sealing magic, Link and Calamity Ganon both safely fall into the Laboratory and engage in combat. If Link has freed Divine Beasts from Calamity Ganon's control, the Champions piloting each Divine Beast—in the same pattern of the aforementioned beasts that Link would otherwise fight —will launch an attack on Hyrule Castle and converge the beams emitted from their Divine Beasts down the pit, pelting Calamity Ganon with an array of lasers which whittle his health down cumulatively. The damage dealt from each Divine Beast is measured in increments of 12.5%, with all four Divine Beasts inflicting enough damage to remove 50% of Calamity Ganon's total health.

If Link has not freed any Divine Beasts, the battle will begin with no initial damage dealt to the Scourge of Hyrule Castle. Upon defeating Calamity Ganon, he will shed his mortal form and escape from the Laboratory to. Following suit, Princess Zelda will transport Link to Ganon's location, where she explains that he has assumed his most true and basic form as the very embodiment of his rage, in a final attempt to destroy. Second Gatehouse.

The Second GatehouseThe Second Gatehouse is a small tower along the path to the Sanctum continuing from the First Gatehouse. Much like the First Gatehouse, it is flanked by two Guardian Turrets. If Link enters the Second Gatehouse, the portcullises at the entrance and exit will close and a will descend from the ceiling and attack Link. Upon defeat, the portcullises will rise and the Lynel will drop a metallic Treasure Chest containing three Ancient Arrows. A stone Treasure Chest on the upper level on the Gatehouse contains five Bomb Arrows. The conical spire roof of the Second Gatehouse has broken in at places, giving Link access to the interior which holds a stone Treasure Chest. Inside the Chest is a Royal Guard's Spear.

A Korok is hidden at the top of the spire, requiring Link to examine the glimmering cluster of leaves to uncover him.Minor Enemies.
