Celestial being

The big man in green couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the scene in front of him.

After all, the strength of this three-jue old man was a bit higher than he expected. Although he still had some strength left, he no longer had much confidence in being able to kill him.

At this moment, Yuan Ming's eyes suddenly opened on the white jade lotus platform in the Tiantian Cauldron space.

A majestic power of spiritual consciousness immediately emanated from his body, and then appeared outside, shrouding the old man Sanjue.

When Old Man Sanjue was activating the sword formation with all his strength, planning to kill Huazhi and the others in one go, boundless darkness suddenly fell in front of his eyes, and he could no longer see anything.

"It's that rat again!"

He clenched his gums, hating the soul cultivator that he had been hiding to the extreme.

Just when he was about to activate the power of his soul and use secret methods to break the illusion formation, a voice suddenly rang in his ears:

"It seems I haven't taught you enough lessons. Are you going to rebel against me?"

The moment this voice sounded, old man Sanjue's whole body trembled involuntarily.

He knew this sound all too well, it was the sound of the immortal tree that enslaved him.

In the past thousand years, he has been tortured by this immortal tree too many times. His original resistance has been exhausted, and all that is left is fear, the fear of that immortal guy that goes deep into his bones.

This has become a habit.

The old man Sanjue suppressed his instinct of fear and looked forward, only to see shadowy figures in the darkness, and the figure of a giant tree gradually became clearer.

Rattans hang down from the tree trunk, and the lower part is wrapped in dense cocoons.

One of the three hanging down from the top is open, but it is like a bloody mouth, constantly opening and closing, as if it wants to choose people to devour.

Old Man Sanjue carefully examined the aura emanating from the giant tree, and there was no mistaking it, it was the old monster.

"Come back, this is your final destination." The voice of the Immortal Tree sounded again.

This call seemed to have some kind of magic power. Although he was resisting to the extreme in his heart, the old man Sanjue still couldn't control it and walked towards the giant tree almost instinctively.

This is the terrifying thing about "Nightmare". The illusion he induces is not constructed by the caster, but inspires the deepest fear in the heart of the recipient, pulling him into the illusion.

The immortal tree that frightened Old Man Sanjue was constructed from the memories and fears in his heart. All the details, including the breath he sensed, were conceived by himself, so it was impossible for him to see through it.

In essence, it was his own fear and memory that deceived himself.

The old man Sanjue fell into a nightmare, most of his mind had been lost, and only some instincts were still fighting.

His green gold sword formation could no longer be maintained and disappeared.

The man in green clothes was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately flew forward to kill him completely.

"Wait, leave it to me." Yuan Ming's voice suddenly sounded in the sea of ​​​​consciousness of the man in green.

The latter was startled when he heard this, but he still respected Yuan Ming's opinion and stopped.

At this time, a ray of blood shot out from Huazhi's hand, and the Shura Blood-devouring Picture "Hulala" unfolded, and the three-jue old man was directly included in the picture scroll.

However, the old man Sanjue, who had just fallen into Shura's bloodthirsty map, suddenly experienced a violent shock in his sea of ​​consciousness.

His soul was wrapped in a force, and he actually wanted to abandon his physical body and fly away directly.

Yuan Ming had already seen this technique in the jade slip given by Qiye, and knew that it was the secret technique used by the Immortal Tree to control all wooden puppets. It could directly absorb the soul of the wooden puppets through summoning.

As long as the soul is retrieved, the immortal tree can re-create a body for the wooden puppet as long as it takes some time. Once the two are fused, they can return to their original state.

Naturally, Yuan Ming would not just watch it succeed, and immediately called Xiying for help. The two of them jointly mobilized their huge soul power and forcibly suppressed the soul of the old man Sanjue, preventing him from flying back immediately.

Huazhi outside also acted very quickly. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed the Shura Blood-devouring Figure that flew back.

The next moment, the picture scroll flashed and was taken into the space of the Tiantian Cauldron by Yuan Ming.

And just when the Shura Blood-devouring Diagram returned to the Heaven-Stealing Cauldron, the resistance of Sanjue Old Man's soul suddenly stopped.

Yuan Ming was stunned for a while and then woke up.

"Haha, it seems that the space of the Stealing Heaven Cauldron has blocked the summons of the Immortal Tree. This can save a lot of effort." Yuan Ming laughed heartily.

Later, he sent a message to the big man in green and the Yinkong tree demon, asking them to help others quickly and jointly eliminate the Nascent Soul monks and the tree people in the Dan Formation stage.

Because they failed to set up the Wood Emperor's formation, the wooden puppets suffered heavy losses. Most of the tree people in the Dan Formation stage were wiped out, and several monks in the Nascent Soul Stage also died. Now even the leader of the San Jue old man has been eliminated, and the rest The people were unable to fight anymore and immediately fled in all directions.

In the Tiantian Cauldron space, Yuan Ming pressed one hand on the Shura Blood-devouring Diagram, and a soul-searching black light invaded, probing the memory of the Sanjue old man.

After only a moment, he took back his palm, took out a jade slip and engraved a technique on it, which was the Nine Yuan Jue, including all the formulas from the Qi Refining stage to the Void Return stage.

What Old Man Sanjue practiced was the Nine Yuan Jue. This opportunity was rare. Although the situation was urgent, he still spent some time to get this technique.

Yuan Ming did not explore his memory and continued to activate the Shura Blood Devouring Chart to extract the energy and blood of the Sanjue Old Man.

Yuan Ming reached the Nascent Soul stage and activated the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram. He no longer had the feeling of a child dancing with a sledgehammer before. The refining process went very smoothly. He quickly extracted the essence and blood of the Sanjue Old Man for refining. His body was also refined into a blood slave in the Void Return stage.

Yuan Ming couldn't conceal his excitement when he felt the incomparable energy and blood of Old Man Sanjue.

He did not offer this energy and blood to the Immortal Black Tree. Instead, he used the Demonic Elephant Prison Suppressing Technique to absorb this extremely pure energy and blood and refine it into his body.

Outside the cauldron, Murong Yanyu was lying in a mountain col with injuries all over his body. The Qiqing Qin he was holding in his arms had already had all its strings broken. The expression on his face was not as panicked as it was at the beginning, but a little more... relief.

"In the same spirit, please do it quickly and kill my soul. I don't want to go back to that dark place and be enslaved by that old monster." Murong Yanyu said.

"Do you have any last words that you need to bring back to the sect?" Long Chong asked.

"What needs to be explained was already done when I left the sect. There is nothing more to say. If you can go back alive, just don't tell me about my enslavement." Murong Yanyu shook his head and said.

"Okay, we promise you." Long Chong glanced at the others and saw that the others nodded before replying.

"Let's do it, thank you very much." After Murong Yanyu finished speaking, she closed her eyes.

Long Chong's battle spear was raised and pierced directly between her eyebrows. Shi Yanshi also swung his pen at the same time and wrote a character "annihilation" in the void, which penetrated into her sea of ​​consciousness.

On the other side, the big man in green had already broken Tu Shixiong's neck and destroyed his soul with his hands.

In dark space.

"Dead? How could he be dead...impossible!" The Immortal Tree sensed the death of the old man Sanjue and immediately let out a roar.

When he discovered something strange before, he had already tried to summon his soul back, but failed.

In addition, the spiritual treasure in his body moved again. As a last resort, he suppressed the urge to forcefully leave the seclusion. Unexpectedly, the old man Sanjue died.

That was one of his most important combat powers, and such a loss was heavier than the death of thousands of pill-forming tree people.

"Wait, you are all mine, you are all mine!" The unwilling roar echoed in the dark space.

…

In the space of Stealing Heaven Cauldron, Yuan Ming finally completely refined the abundant energy and blood of the Sanjue Old Man. His physical cultivation reached a new level. The energy and blood in his body surged like a tide, and he finally broke through the orifice-opening body.

Yuan Ming sat cross-legged and opened all the acupoints in his body. In the void around him, traces of white light swam in and converged towards his body.

That power is hot and powerful, full of the upright and bright aura of the sun, it is the power of the sun.

The acupoints opened in Yuan Ming's body were like countless big mouths, greedily sucking in the power of the sun, making the pores all over his body seem to be bathed in the sun, receiving the baptism of the true fire of the sun.

With the continuous injection of the power of the sun, the energy and blood all over his body were flowing like a dragon throughout his body, tempering his limbs and bones. His tendons, muscles, and bones were all strengthening at a terrifying speed.

Xiying watched this scene, with relief in her eyes, but also a hint of worry, and couldn't help but remind her:

"The power of the sun in the Heaven Stealing Cauldron is too thin, and I'm afraid it won't be enough to support your body to reach perfection, and it will leave shortcomings in your future practice."

After hearing this, Yuan Ming didn't panic at all.

As soon as he turned his wrist, a golden crow divine arrow appeared in his palm.

Xiying's eyes lit up when he saw this thing, and the worry disappeared immediately.

When it comes to the purity of the power of the sun, this Golden Crow Divine Arrow is naturally purer than the ones in the outside void. The Golden Crow True Fire contained in it is the condensed essence of the rich power of the sun.

Yuan Ming held the arrow in his hand, and the surface of the divine arrow immediately lit up with a dazzling white light, followed by a layer of blazing flames that emerged from it and spread quickly, wrapping Yuan Ming's entire body in it.

However, the flames that enveloped his whole body did not cause any harm to him. Instead, it seemed to be forging his body, constantly calcining the impurities in his body into wisps of black gas, which escaped from the orifices around his body.

Yuan Ming's incomparable soul power and mana were also attracted and integrated into the transformation of his physical body.

As time passed, the flames that enveloped Yuan Ming gradually shrank and merged into his body bit by bit until they completely disappeared.

At this moment, Yuan Ming's orifice-opening body was finally completely completed.

His eyes suddenly opened, a blazing light bloomed in his eyes, and his whole temperament seemed to have changed in some way.

When Xiying looked directly at him, she subconsciously had the illusion of covering her eyes, looking at him as if she were staring into the scorching sun.

However, this illusion did not last long. After Yuan Ming quickly stabilized his state, his whole aura became restrained again and returned to his usual appearance.

"How do you feel?" Xiying asked, also curious about his changes.

"As you said before, the body that penetrates the orifices is a threshold for physical cultivation. After this transformation of absorbing the power of the sun, my body has improved greatly. My whole body is transparent, and a large amount of the power of the sun seems to be stored in my acupoints. , the strength has been increased by more than ten times, and the defense has also been greatly increased. It is not a big problem for me to directly resist the magic weapon attack of the Nascent Soul monks." Yuan Ming raised his hand and shook it a few times, unable to hide his joy. , said.

"Advancing the body of enlightenment requires understanding the artistic conception. Do you understand it?" Xiying continued to ask.

"Naturally." Yuan Ming said with burning eyes.

"What kind of artistic conception have you comprehended?" Xiying asked.

For the physical cultivation of the enlightened body, the meaning of understanding is extremely important, which directly determines the direction of its future growth.

Yuan Ming has not been practicing physical cultivation for a long time, but he has a strong foundation and has reached extremely high levels in both legal and soul cultivation, which is of great help to him in understanding the artistic conception.

"Together!" Yuan Ming closed his eyes and said after a moment.

"Together?" Xiying repeated in confusion as this was obviously the first time he heard this meaning.

"As the name suggests, my will can connect the lives of myself and the enemy. One will be prosperous and one will suffer both." Yuan Ming looked at his fist and said slowly.
