Chapter 558 Solution

Since the Soul Gathering Tree was transplanted into the Heaven Stealing Cauldron, Yuan Ming was also ready to practice in it. After all, although Yuan Wuji and others were led to two other places before, it was hard to guarantee whether anyone among them would have any intentions, which would be troublesome again.

So Yuan Ming quietly left the valley with the Heaven Stealing Cauldron and came to a large lake.

He hid the Heaven Stealing Cauldron at the bottom of the lake, and captured a low-level fish monster in the lake, transformed it and planted the Soul Descending Rune, and ordered it to guard near the Heaven Stealing Cauldron before entering the cauldron.

At this time, Xiying had begun to prepare to practice the Ju Mang Spirit Art. She opened up a field in the Heaven Stealing Cauldron, spread various spiritual soils, and irrigated it with special spiritual water. Obviously, she had done a lot of homework for practicing this technique, and now she was familiar with it.

Xiying seemed to be quite good at cultivating spiritual plants. She performed several mysterious secret techniques in succession, and soon cultivated a spiritual field in the Heaven Stealing Cauldron that was similar to the Shura Palace Medicine Garden.

She took out a five-color seed, which was the spiritual seed of the Five Elements Creation Tree, and buried it in the spiritual field, refining and cultivating it with the Ju Mang Spirit Technique.

At the same time, Yuan Ming was not idle either. He sat cross-legged on the other side of the altar, closed his eyes and began to practice. Suddenly, he noticed some abnormal movements in the storage ring. His consciousness was immersed in it, and he looked surprised.

The source of the abnormal movement was the half of the black demon tree that he had put away before. It seemed to have come to life again, waving its branches in the storage bag, making a mess.

Yuan Ming hurriedly took out the black demon tree and came into contact with the rich spiritual energy in the Stealing Heaven Cauldron. Many pores appeared on each branch of the black demon tree, greedily devouring the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, making a hissing sound, and dancing more intensely.

He sighed in his heart that this black demon tree was really terrible. It could still be like this even if its roots were broken.

Although this tree is magical, it is related to the immortal tree demon, so it must not be left.

Yuan Ming threw the black demon tree into the spirit beast bag where Huazhi was, and Huazhi's vines immediately wrapped around and took root in the black demon tree.

The black demon tree seemed to know that the crisis was coming and immediately fought back. However, it had been severely injured by the Golden Crow's arrow before, and the little strength it had just recovered was no match for Huazhi. It struggled a little, but was soon entangled by countless vines.

One by one, the vines pierced into the demon tree, and the originally plump trunk quickly became shriveled, and soon turned into rotten wood, and finally turned into ashes.

After absorbing the black demon tree, Huazhi's breath became more active, and it seemed that breaking through the barrier was just around the corner.

Yuan Ming was quite satisfied with this. Just as he was about to retract his spiritual consciousness, he suddenly stopped and pinched his fingers to attract.

A fist-sized black thing flew out of the dust that the demon tree had turned into, and it looked like a seed.

"Could this be the seed of the black demon tree? It's strange that it wasn't sucked dry by Huazhi." Yuan Ming caught the seed and looked at it carefully.

He could feel that this black seed still contained a lot of vitality.

At this moment, a black mist suddenly rose from the black seed, and an old and ferocious face emerged in the mist, which was the face on the black demon tree.

"What is that?" Yuan Ming was startled, and he opened his mouth and spurted out a soul-destroying sword energy, and slashed at the ferocious face in the black mist without hesitation.

However, after the sword fell, the face on the black mist was split into two, and then flashed into Yuan Ming's body, and the seed disappeared and appeared in his dantian.

Several black roots emerged from the seed and took root here.

Yuan Ming only reacted at this moment, but it was too late. The mana in his dantian flowed uncontrollably and was quickly absorbed by the black seed.

Not only mana, but also the abundant blood in Yuan Ming's body was being quickly absorbed.

Nourished by Yuan Ming's mana and blood, the black air on the seed became several times thicker, and the ferocious face just now appeared again, with a bloodthirsty ecstasy on his expression.

A large number of roots continued to emerge from the seed, taking root in other parts of Yuan Ming's body, devouring his blood and qi more quickly.

Yuan Ming was shocked and angry, and the Soul-Destroying Sword nurtured in his Dantian shot out with a bang, slashing the black seed fiercely.

With a loud "clang", the black seed was intact, and the Soul-Destroying Sword was shaken away.

He was in great pain in his Dantian, and a mouthful of blood spurted out with a "wow".

"What's going on? It's so hard!" Yuan Ming frowned, not daring to swing the sword at the black seed again, and activated the curse rune of the Soul-Destroying Sword.

An invisible curse penetrated into the black seed, and the spiritual light on the seed suddenly dimmed, and the hideous face showed a look of pain, and the speed of devouring Yuan Ming's mana and blood slowed down a lot.

Yuan Ming's eyes were happy, the black seed contained a certain consciousness, and the curse rune was indeed effective.

He did not dare to relax, and continued to activate the curse rune of the Soul-Destroying Sword, and all the soul crows in the sea of ​​consciousness shot out and came to the Dantian.

The twelve soul crows opened their mouths and emitted waves of crow sounds, drowning the black seed. The black seed's devouring power weakened again, but it still did not stop absorbing the mana and blood in its body.

Yuan Ming had already recovered his breath at this moment. He pinched his hands together, and two golden and black spiritual lights shot out from his palms and sank into the black seed.

This was the complete Golden Sunflower Beast Taming Technique that he had just mastered. Since the black seed had self-awareness, the beast taming technique should also be effective.

Yuan Ming did not stop. In the spleen area, the blood light transformed by the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram cracked a gap.

A yellow light shot out from it, entered the Dantian, and entangled on the black seed.

The sand man poison entrenched in the spleen was transmitted along the yellow light and invaded the black seed.

At this time, Yuan Ming was like facing a great enemy, and he had used all the means he could.

Under such a series of attacks, the black energy on the black seed was almost dispersed.

However, this seed was extremely tenacious and firmly held the last wisp of black energy. As long as Yuan Ming's attack was slightly slow, the black seed would immediately counterattack.

Time passed little by little, and soon half an hour had passed.

Yuan Ming's forehead was sweating. His magic power and soul power began to run out, but the black seed was intact. The counterattack became more and more fierce, and more roots emerged. One of them had actually taken root near the sea of ​​consciousness.

The soul power in his sea of ​​consciousness was also attracted and gathered towards the black seed.

Yuan Ming was shocked and dared not hold back. He took out a green lotus seed and swallowed it. His body also flew out and landed on the white jade lotus platform of the altar and sat on it.

Boom!

The pure will power in the white jade lotus platform surged, and Yuan Ming's soul power was instantly restored, and it surged to a level infinitely close to that of a sleeping witch.

The twelve soul crows became much larger in size, and the sound waves of the crows they emitted became several times stronger.

As the lotus seeds melted, his mana quickly recovered, and the curse runes of the Soul-Destroying Sword and the power of the Golden Sunflower Beast Taming Technique also increased greatly, overwhelmed the black seeds again.

However, the black seeds were really tenacious. No matter how the crows' sound waves and curse runes attacked wildly, they could firmly hold the last line of defense and could not be completely destroyed. They also maintained the absorption of Yuan Ming's blood and mana, waiting for Yuan Ming to run out of strength.

"What is the origin of this black seed that is so difficult to deal with?" Yuan Ming muttered to himself with an ugly face.

"What's wrong with you? What happened?" Xiying had already noticed the abnormality on Yuan Ming's side, and hurriedly stopped what he was doing and flew towards Yuan Ming, asking at the same time.

Yuan Ming did not hide it. While continuing to cast spells to suppress the absorption of the black seeds, he quickly told Xiying the origin of the black seeds and the situation just now.

"Black demon tree? Let me see..." Xiying showed a look of surprise on her face and pointed at Yuan Ming.

A five-colored light flashed into Yuan Ming's dantian and enveloped the black seeds.

The black seed seemed to be able to devour everything, and the five-colored light was also quickly swallowed up.

Xiying seemed to have anticipated this, and the ten fingers of both hands turned like wheels, and the five-colored light shot towards Yuan Ming continuously, and stopped after a quarter of an hour.

"This black seed is related to the immortal tree you mentioned earlier, and it is closer to the body of the immortal tree than the blue-black demon tree transformed by the tree people outside. That's why its vitality is so tenacious. No matter how crazy you attack, you can't shake it." Xiying's chest rose and fell slightly, and it seemed to be quite exhausted. He said so.

Yuan Ming's heart sank. He had already had a premonition in this regard. This black demon tree was indeed an immortal tree. No wonder it was so difficult.

"But you don't have to worry too much. I have thought of a solution." Xiying suddenly smiled.

"What solution?" Yuan Ming was happy.

At this time, he had run out of tricks. If someone else said this, he might still doubt it, but not Xiying.

"In fact, you also know this method, which is the Ju Mang Ling Jue." Xiying continued.

"Jumang Ling Jue! Do you want me to use Jumang Ling Jue to refine the black seed into a life spirit plant? This is indeed a method, but refining a life spirit plant requires the same spiritual roots of both parties. Could it be that the black seed is the four spiritual roots of the five elements without earth?" Yuan Ming was stunned when he heard this and asked.

"In fact, the Immortal Tree is the spiritual tree closest to the ancestor of all trees - the World Tree. Like the World Tree, the Immortal Tree has seven spiritual roots of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, yin and yang, and the black seed is the same." Xiying said so.

"Seven spiritual roots! Then it is even more impossible for me and the black seed to match." Yuan Ming shook his head.

"No, you just happen to be a perfect match." Xiying smiled.

Yuan Ming was stunned when he heard this, a little confused.

"You originally had four spiritual roots: gold, wood, water, and fire. Because of the Taiyin Spleen Refining Technique, your spleen contains a large amount of rich earth-attribute spiritual power, which is considered to be a disguised earth spiritual root. You also practiced soul cultivation and body cultivation. Soul cultivation is a pure Yin-attribute technique. Your life-defining magic weapon, the Soul-Destroying Sword, is a pure Yin magic weapon. When it comes to sensing Yin-attribute spiritual power, you are more sensitive than Yin-attribute cultivators." Xiying talked freely.

"What about Yang spiritual roots? I don't practice Yang-attribute techniques or Yang-attribute magic weapons." Yuan Ming nodded thoughtfully and said.

"No, you practiced Yang-attribute techniques, and it is quite profound." Xiying shook her head and said.
