Chapter 560: Conquer
Yuan Ming retracted his gaze and looked at his arm that had turned into a branch. He sighed and moved his shoulders slightly.
The branch that his arm had turned into quickly shrank and soon restored the shape of his arm.
Compared with Xiying's orthodox practice, his Ju Mang Ling Jue had a lot of problems from the beginning. It was not planted and cultivated outside, but rooted in his Dantian.
Now the seed has grown into a small tree, still rooted in his Dantian, making him half man and half tree.
However, this is not all bad. The immortal tree and Yuan Ming's body have grown together completely. The connection between the two is closer than the ordinary practice of Ju Mang Ling Jue. The amazing vitality of the immortal tree flows in his body, and the sand man poison in the spleen has long been resolved.
The tempering of spiritual roots is also better than cultivating spiritual plants outside.
Although the Ju Mang Ling Jue has only completed the first level, Yuan Ming's spiritual roots have been greatly improved, and the speed of refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is no less than that of three spiritual roots.
Yan Sijing's elixir has not been refined yet. In the past year or so, Yuan Ming has relied entirely on meditation and practice.
The spirit gathering tree took effect, and the spiritual energy in the space of the Heaven Stealing Cauldron became more concentrated, much better than any cultivation treasure he had been in before. He set up the Yimu Spirit Gathering Array obtained from the previous auction to enhance the concentration of spiritual energy.
After a year of hard practice, his mana increased a lot, and he steadily moved towards the late stage of Danjie.
After learning the true meaning of physical cultivation from Xiying, in order to balance the spiritual roots and prevent problems with the Ju Mang Ling Jue, Yuan Ming did not relax his physical cultivation.
With the help of sufficient blood power, his magic elephant prison skills also improved a lot, and he was not far from the innate body.
As for soul cultivation, there was not much progress.
It was not that Yuan Ming was slack, but mainly because this secret realm of the Time Cave isolated most of the wish power outside, and only a very small part could be transmitted in, which could not play a big role.
Fortunately, Yuan Ming thought of this problem in time and brought Yun Jiuxiao Bingxin, Bai Lin Shangren and others into the Time Cave.
Bingxin and Yun Jiuxiao prayed on time every day to provide wish power.
However, the three people of Master Bai Lin became more and more perfunctory towards the Dark Moon God, and they prayed and worshiped for three days and slacked off for two days. Their attitude was not pious, and they did not generate much wish power.
"These Yuanying period cultivators are arrogant, it seems necessary to suppress them and completely subdue them." Yuan Ming said secretly, sitting on the white jade lotus platform, and his consciousness descended along Yun Jiuxiao's wish anchor point.
In a twin peak in the secret space, Master Bai Lin, Queen Mingkong, and the strong man of the water ape tribe each opened a cave to practice.
There is a green jade stone the size of a human head under the twin peaks. The spiritual energy from all directions gathers here, making the spiritual energy of the world in the twin peaks much richer than other places.
"This green jade stone is the stone of gathering spirits..." Yuan Ming's expression moved slightly.
Yun Jiuxiao and Bing Xin were also here. The cave they opened was in the corner of the twin peaks, far away from the stone of gathering spirits.
Yuan Ming's consciousness observed the stone of gathering spirits for a few times, and quickly moved away, covering Master Bai Lin.
Master Bai Lin made hand gestures and was practicing a secret technique of the snake people. The huge divine consciousness enveloped him and he was shocked.
"Lord Dark Moon God!"
"Oh, you still know that there is this Dark Moon God. Have you been praying four times a day as promised?" Yuan Ming said slowly.
"This..." Master Bai Lin's face froze.
He was quite afraid of Dark Moon God at first, but as Lan Ke Fairy Island changed dramatically, they fled into the Cave of Time, but Dark Moon God never showed up, and there was not even a sound.
After discussing privately with Queen Ming Kong and the strong man of the Water Ape Clan, Master Bai Lin felt that Dark Moon God was unlikely to enter the Cave of Time, so they were careless about praying to him. Unexpectedly, Dark Moon God came to visit today!
"Lord Dark Moon God, please forgive me. It's not that I didn't do my best. It's just that I have been busy recently and neglected to pray..." Master Bai Lin said hurriedly.
"Really?" Yuan Ming sneered, and his huge soul cast an illusion, and even urged the dream runes of all living beings to help.
A huge illusion force descended from the sky, violently tearing the defense of Bai Lin's sea of consciousness and invading his soul.
Yuan Ming used to cast an illusion with the blessing of his will, which was enough to make Bai Lin fall into an illusion. Now his dream butterfly illusion has made great progress, and he has initially mastered the dream runes of all living beings. His illusion skills have greatly increased, and Bai Lin fell into an illusion in an instant.
He appeared in a white space, his body was imprisoned by thick chains, and countless sharp blades shot out from the void, piercing every inch of his body.
"Ah..."
Bai Lin let out a shrill scream.
The blade attack did not stop, and waves of sharp blades stabbed from all directions, piercing Bai Lin's body again and again, giving him no chance to breathe.
The flow of time in the white space was extremely strange, as if it had stagnated. The pain of thousands of blades piercing the body would continue forever, making people feel desperate.
The Dream Butterfly Illusion has reached the level of illusion, and can control the flow of time in the illusion space. A moment outside can pass several days in the illusion space. No matter how strong one's will is, he cannot resist the torture day and night.
This is what happened to Master Bai Lin. After persisting for a day and a night, his will finally collapsed completely.
But at this moment, his eyes blurred and his consciousness returned to his body.
Master Bai Lin's body trembled, cold sweat flowed all over his body, and he gasped for breath. It took a while for his collapsed consciousness to recover.
"Thank you, Lord Mingyue God, for not killing me..." Master Bai Lin finally understood the magical power of Mingyue God at this moment. It was almost effortless to kill him.
"Pray five times a day in the future, and don't slack off, otherwise I won't let you off as easily as I did today!" Yuan Ming said coldly.
"Yes." Master Bai Lin shuddered and knelt on the ground.
"As long as you worship sincerely, I won't treat you unfairly. I know your situation. After thirty years, I will have a way to get you out of Sanxian Island." Yuan Ming said.
He asked for the power of will, and he couldn't just suppress them. The right way was to give them a sweet date after a beating.
"Really? Thank you, Lord Mingyue God!" Master Bai Lin was overjoyed when he heard this, and knelt down again.
This time he was sincere and heartfelt.
Thirty years seems to be a long time, but for a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, it is only enough to practice one or two secret arts, and there is no way to improve their strength.
The existence of the Immortal Demon Tree has always been a heavy burden on his heart. Now the Mingyue God actually promised to take them away from Sanxian Island!
Master Bai Lin suspected that the Dark Moon God was bragging, but the Dark Moon God was very powerful. As long as he could help deal with the Undead Demon Tree, he would be willing to worship him every day.
Yuan Ming's consciousness shifted and fell on the strong man of the Water Ape Clan and Queen Mingkong. He quickly knocked and appeased the two and obtained two strong wishes.
He was quite satisfied and was about to withdraw his consciousness. Suddenly, he remembered something and communicated with one person.
In a cave in a valley dozens of miles away, a figure stood up. It was Long Chong.
"I have something to tell you..." Yuan Ming said.
"Yes, I will obey the Holy Order!" Long Chong answered respectfully and walked outside. Soon he came to another cave.
"Senior Shi, I have something to report." He said respectfully.
"Little Long, what's the matter?" The door of the cave was opened, and the voice of Shi Yanshi came from inside.
After settling down in the secret realm a year ago, Yuan Ming released Long Chong and told him the news that his father was captured by the Undead Demon Tree.
After Long Chong was sad, he decided to take revenge on the Undead Demon Tree.
Yuan Ming took the opportunity to guide him to join the Dark Moon God Cult. Long Chong was weak and agreed without hesitation.
Qianlong Island and Hongye Island had some friendship, so Yuan Ming sent Long Chong to Shi Yanshi and the other two, to seek shelter and to monitor the three.
"This is a serious matter. I wonder if I can go in and discuss it in detail?" Long Chong said.
"Yes, come in." Shi Yanshi said after a slight surprise.
Long Chong walked into the cave and soon came to a stone chamber.
A red magic array was engraved on the floor of the stone chamber, in which many fiery red spirit stones were placed. Above the magic array stood a huge refining furnace, which was now wrapped in blazing spirit flames, and seemed to be refining some magic weapon.
"Long boy, just say what you want to say." Shi Yanshi said with a trace of fatigue on his face.
"Senior Shi is refining a magic weapon? In this case, I will make a long story short. This matter is related to the Undead Demon Tree and the situation outside." Long Chong said with a slight bow.
Master Shi Yan's expression became serious when he heard this.
"The immortal demon tree is extremely powerful. I feel that I am weak, so I was recommended to join the Dark Moon Sect a few days ago..." Long Chong repeated the words that Yun Jiuxiao used to guide Master Bai Lin and others to join the Dark Moon Sect, and also told Master Shi Yan the news of the destruction of Fusang Island.
Master Shi Yan's face changed suddenly when he heard this.
"Are you sure?" His eyes were as sharp as a knife.
"Such a big thing, how dare I lie? This is the photo talisman given to me by Lord Dark Moon. It records the current situation of Fusang Island." Long Chong took out a photo talisman and handed it over.
Master Shi Yan's consciousness probed into it, and his expression changed again. He paused refining the weapon, called Wan Huagu and Hei Zhusou over, and told the story again.
The two were also shocked when they heard it.
"Nephew Long, what is the purpose of Lord Dark Moon telling us this news?" Hei Zhusou asked.
"Lord Mingyue God has great magical powers and can pass on the items in the secret realm. The three seniors are all the masters of an island. Now the situation outside is changing rapidly. Lord Mingyue God said that he can help to transmit the orders and items of the three people to prevent Yuzhu Island, Hongye Island, and Wanhua Island from being affected by this chaos." Long Chong said.
The three people of Heizhu Sou were all happy to hear this.
"Lord Mingyue God can help us, we are really grateful, but I don’t know what price we need to pay?" Wanhua Gu asked.
"The Mingyue God Sect is now spreading in the East China Sea. Lord Mingyue God hopes that the three seniors can believe in Mingyue God and join the sect." Long Chong said.
"Join the Mingyue God Sect..." Heizhu Sou and Shi Yanshi were not surprised by this.
"Lord Mingyue God also said that he can protect the three seniors to leave Sanxian Island safely." Long Chong threw out another important news.
Heizhu Sou and the three people heard this and stood up suddenly.
"This is a serious matter. Can we talk to Lord Mingyue in person?" Black Bamboo Sou pondered for a while, exchanged glances with the other two, and then said.
"Of course." Long Chong said.
Yuan Ming smiled slightly, and his huge spiritual consciousness enveloped him.
Black Bamboo Sou and the other two saw a flash of light before their eyes, and fell into an illusion.
A quarter of an hour later, Long Chong left the cave and returned to his residence to continue practicing.
Three more huge will powers were transmitted from the space of the Heaven Stealing Cauldron.
Yuan Ming showed a satisfied smile, sat cross-legged, and refined and absorbed the three new will powers, and his soul power improvement suddenly accelerated.
