Chapter 570: Conceiving a Baby and Leaving the Cave
Time passed, and soon another month passed.
A crisp eggshell cracking sound resounded through the world, and the rays of light around Yuan Ming shrank rapidly, condensing into a funnel, absorbing all the spiritual energy in the Heaven Stealing Cauldron into his body.
But at the same time, Yuan Ming seemed to be in a trance, and his eyes closed involuntarily, as if he was asleep.
This was the inner demon tribulation that needed to be experienced when breaking through the Nascent Soul, but Yuan Ming had already experienced the inner demon tribulation when he advanced to the Sleeping Witch, so it would not be too difficult to overcome the tribulation for the second time.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth rolled together, and when the last trace of spiritual energy poured into his body, Yuan Ming suddenly opened his eyes, and two fascinating lights burst out.
Then, he suddenly looked up to the sky and roared, the sound was like the roar of a dragon and a tiger, shaking the white mist around him, and then it rolled back and retreated rapidly.
Along with a long roar, a hundred-foot-long light and shadow appeared above Yuan Ming's head. His body was surrounded by seven-color spiritual light, majestic and handsome, like a god in the sky, making people want to worship him.
But soon, the light and shadow disappeared, turned into a Yuanying again, and drilled into Yuan Ming's body.
"Very good, congratulations on successfully forming a Yuanying." Seeing that he had completed the breakthrough, Xiying walked over with a smile and bowed her hands in a serious manner.
Her Ju Mang Ling Jue only needed to have a magical connection with the Five Elements Creation Tree, and she could move freely in the space of the Stealing Heaven Cauldron, unlike Yuan Ming who was trapped in the Immortal Tree and had difficulty moving.
Yuan Ming had also come back to his senses and was extremely excited.
To be honest, he didn't have much hope for this breakthrough to the Yuanying, but he didn't expect it to be successful in one go.
"Thanks to your guidance and the Five Elements Condensing Infant Pill, otherwise I would never succeed." Yuan Ming thanked him and glanced behind him.
The biggest help in forming the infant this time was the Immortal Tree behind him.
If it hadn't been for the timely transmission of the immortal tree's vitality, this breakthrough would have most likely failed.
Xiying looked at Yuan Ming and sighed in her heart.
The beast slave boy she met by chance in the southern border has now grown into a powerful Yuanying stage.
"With your current means, the world will be wide open for you to roam freely in the future." She said.
"Don't tease me, even if I enter the Yuanying stage, I still have to be connected to this immortal tree and cannot move. Besides, there are immortal demon trees outside that are eyeing me covetously. How can I roam freely?" Yuan Ming smiled bitterly.
"That's what I said, but in Yunhuang today, there are only a handful of people like you who are both sleeping witches and Yuanying. Although there is still some gap between you and me, I allow you to be proud once!" Xiying said with her hands on her waist and a smile.
Yuan Ming looked at her playful appearance and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and then Yuan Ming looked around and was a little surprised.
"I didn't expect that after I was promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, there would be changes in the Heaven Stealing Cauldron."
Compared to his Jindan period, the internal space of the Heaven Stealing Cauldron is now two or three times larger, and the white fog that enveloped the surroundings has retreated to a farther place, revealing more of the ground paved with warm jade bricks.
The sword scar abyss has revealed more, but it still does not show the full picture.
"It's just that the space has become much larger, but there is no special change." Xiying looked around and said.
"Well, but every time I break through the realm of magic cultivation, the Heaven Stealing Cauldron has new changes. Maybe when I reach the Return to Void stage, there will be something different." Yuan Ming is very open-minded.
After Xiying chatted with him for a while, he went back into seclusion.
After consolidating his realm, Yuan Ming tried to use the Nascent Soul cultivation to drive the magic weapon.
The power of those Jindan realm magic weapons seized did not change much, but the imitation spiritual treasures such as the Hundred Ghosts Night Parade Picture, the Cold Moon Ring, and the real spiritual treasure, the Shura Blood Devouring Picture, did increase their power under his urging.
Not to mention his life-saving magic weapon, the Soul-Destroying Sword. Yuan Ming felt that with his current cultivation, if he activated the three magical runes on it, the effect he could produce would probably be far beyond his imagination.
However, he had no one to try it on, so he could only try it briefly and then stop.
"By the way, after breaking through the Nascent Soul stage, my soul power has greatly improved again. I wonder what level of soul power I can reach now that I have integrated the power of will in the white jade lotus platform." Yuan Ming remembered something, and a thick immortal tree root grew out of his palm and fell on the white jade lotus platform.
Boom!
The power of will in the lotus platform gushed out and injected into his sea of consciousness.
Yuan Ming's soul power soared and soon reached the peak of the Sleeping Witch, but he did not stop and continued to advance by leaps and bounds.
"Could it be possible to reach the level of the Speaker Witch?" Yuan Ming was overjoyed and concentrated on running the Dark Moon Art.
His soul power continued to increase and finally stopped after a while.
A huge soul power surged in his sea of consciousness, which was several times stronger than the peak of the Sleeping Witch. Moreover, the soul power was no longer in a light and ethereal form, but was extremely condensed and faintly condensed into liquid.
"Soul power liquefaction! This is the sign of a Speech Witch, but it is a pity that it has not been completely liquefied, and can only be regarded as a half-step Speech Witch!" Yuan Ming said happily.
He spread his hands and took a deep breath.
Since he entered the world of immortal cultivation, this was the first time he had mastered such a powerful force, as if he was a god who dominated thousands of lives. No matter Xiying or other people in the Cave of Time, as long as he wanted, he could destroy them with a raise of his hand.
"This is the feeling of a Speech Witch, a word can determine life and death..." Yuan Ming sighed in his heart.
Xiying suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Yuan Ming.
Feeling the terrifying soul power fluctuations on Yuan Ming, Xiying's usually calm face showed a look of horror: "You have reached the realm of a Speech Witch? No, it's not a Speech Witch yet, just a half-step Speech Witch!"
"Yes, I just managed to reach it by luck with the power of the will in the Heaven Stealing Cauldron." Yuan Ming took back the immortal tree root in his palm, and his soul power level dropped back to the Sleeping Witch realm.
He showed a trace of fatigue on his face. The power of the Half-Step Speech Witch was too huge. Although his soul power had broken through the Sleeping Witch and his magic cultivation had advanced to the Nascent Soul, he still felt overwhelmed.
"Even if it's only a Half-Step Speech Witch, it's very scary. With this kind of power, we are much more confident in dealing with the immortal tree monster!" Xiying said happily.
Yuan Ming was also very happy. Xiying pointed out some key points of Yuan Ming's Speech Witch realm, and the two entered the practice again.
...
Two months later.
In the Cave of Time, two spiritual lights shot out from the black and white sun and merged into the figure of the black and white weapon spirit.
After he appeared, two more lights flashed beside him, and Luo Qi, the master of the Blood Swallow Island, and Wu Lu appeared at the same time and followed the weapon spirit.
The three of them didn't know where they went. Wu Lu and Luo Qi's cultivation had improved a lot compared to when they entered the Cave of Time. Wu Lu had already entered the late stage of the Core Formation, and Luo Qi had even broken through the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
"Everyone, the agreed time has come. Please come here to meet me." The spirit of the weapon said loudly, and the voice spread to every corner of the Time Cave.
In just a moment, several streams of light flew from different directions of the Time Cave and landed in front of the black and white spirit of the weapon.
The first to arrive were the people of the Nongchao Sanmeng. Compared with before, their cultivation has not changed much. At most, their magic power has been much more condensed.
Among the group, Bingli and Lanxiao saw Luo Qi, the master of the Blood Swallow Island, who had entered the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and a trace of surprise and envy flashed in their eyes.
They have been trapped in the early stage of the Nascent Soul for a long time, but they have never been able to break through. Although Luo Qi had the same cultivation as them before, his strength was still slightly inferior. Now that he has got the opportunity, he has surpassed them. How can they not envy them?
But soon, with the arrival of Queen Mingkong and her group, Bingli and Lanxiao became even more surprised.
Among the three people, it was Master Bailin who stood in the front, holding his head high, with a seemingly indifferent but actually proud smile on his face.
He did have the capital to be proud, after all, he was now a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
"Hehe, how are you?" Master Bai Lin looked at everyone.
Bingli and Lan Xiao turned their heads away, without any intention of responding, while Yuan Wuji did not even move his eyes, and his face remained expressionless.
It was the Blood Realm Venerable who hovered over Master Bai Lin for a moment, and suddenly licked his tongue: "I heard that snake blood is a great tonic, I wonder if you are willing to share some with me, Bai Lin, so that I can have a taste?"
"That depends on whether you have the ability to take it." Bai Lin sneered.
For a while, the atmosphere between the two was tense, but with the enemy at hand and the black and white spirits watching, none of them really wanted to take action.
After a while, Black Bamboo Old Man, Long Chong and others also arrived here, and their cultivation did not change much.
Almost everyone was there, but Yuan Ming and Xiying did not show up. Everyone waited for a while, but suddenly saw a small and beautiful girl on the ground in front of them.
Most of the people present were Nascent Soul cultivators, who could see the demonic aura surrounding this woman at a glance. Wulu also recognized her as Yuan Ming's spirit beast Huazhi, so he asked before everyone else.
"Huazhi, why hasn't Fellow Daoist Yuan come yet?"
Huazhi scratched his head and showed a distressed look: "I don't know either. The envoy of God let me practice on my own a few years ago, and I haven't met him since then. I thought I could see him here again."
Hearing this, everyone had different expressions. Even if they were a spirit beast like Huazhi, which had reached the fourth level, they would not abandon it casually, not to mention that this thing was a servant of the Dark Moon God. As a envoy of God, Yuan Ming had not met with it for several years. Could something have happened?
Perhaps because of Yuan Ming's identity as the Dark Moon God, everyone did not ask much. As for why Huazhi, as a spirit beast, appeared alone, although it was a bit strange, it was not a big deal worth discussing at the moment.
At this moment, the black and white spirit suddenly said: "It's getting late, you should leave the Time Cave, and those who didn't come don't have to wait any longer."
The Black Bamboo Old Man hesitated for a moment, and suddenly bowed: "Senior, the Time Cave is under your control. I wonder if you can tell us where Yuan Ming and the others are now?"
"They are no longer in the cave." The black and white spirit did not hide it.
Everyone was shocked, and Wan Hua Gu immediately asked: "Where did they go? Did they find a way to leave?"
"I am only responsible for protecting you for 30 years. I don't care what happened during this period. Your questions have nothing to do with me." The black and white spirit shook his head.
The Black Bamboo Old Man and others looked at each other, and their faces became gloomy.
