Celestial being

"My little friend, you are a mixed practitioner of Dharma, Soul and Body. Not only soul cultivation, but also Dharma and physical cultivation cannot be too vigorous and vigorous. I see that your Qi and blood are also showing signs of instability. Did you also use a special method to cultivate? It is better to be steady and steady." Jie continued.

"What Taoist Brother Xia Jie said is true, but the physical cultivation method I practice comes from the demon world, so I borrowed the demonic energy to improve it. Is there any hidden danger in this?" Yuan Ming raised his eyebrows and said.

He had previously been desperate to improve his strength, mainly to deal with the invasion of the Wuyue Sect and the Demon Realm. Now that the crisis was over, he no longer planned to use the Shura Blood Devouring Chart to speed up his cultivation.

"That's not true. In the final analysis, whether it is demonic energy or spiritual energy, they are the most original power in this world. They are just different types. There is no distinction between good and evil. You only need to be careful to avoid conflicts between mana and demonic energy. Yes." Xia Jie said.

Yuan Ming felt relieved when he heard this, and then turned over his hand and took out something, which was the fragment of the broken sword that was obtained from the Stealing Heaven Cauldron altar.

"I got this object from the altar inside the Stealing Heaven Cauldron. Since Fellow Daoist Xia Jie is the first owner of the Stealing Heaven Cauldron, he must know about this object. I wonder where this fragment came from?" Yuan Ming asked.

"Haha, I didn't expect that my friend discovered this thing. Among the thirteen owners of the Tiantian Cauldron, I am the only one who noticed the existence of this fragment." Xia Jie said with a smile, took the fragment of the broken sword, and lightly touched it with his fingers. Swipe lightly.

"This fragment was also obtained from the secret territory of Wentian. I have not found out its origin. However, this object cannot be destroyed. It should be a fragment of a powerful treasure. The three runes on it are very mysterious, but also extremely domineering. , you have to use it carefully." Xia Jie said slowly, and then returned it.

Yuan Ming nodded slowly and put away the broken sword fragments.

He then asked why it was difficult to open the space of the Thieving Cauldron, and the answer he got was just as he guessed, it was that the crystals in the altar of the Thieving Cauldron had exhausted their spiritual power.

Unfortunately, Xia Jie didn't have the crystals in the magic circle, so he could only wait for Yuan Ming to find a replacement in the future.

"I have one last question." Yuan Ming looked up at Xia Jie with solemn eyes.

"You can say whatever you want, little friend." Xia Jie's expression was indifferent.

"I heard that the treasures above the Lingbao have weapon spirits. Does the Thieving Heaven Cauldron also have weapon spirits?" Yuan Ming asked.

"Is it the weapon spirit that steals the Heaven Cauldron? I can't answer this question because I have never noticed that there is a weapon spirit in this cauldron, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist." Xia Jie said noncommittally.

When Yuan Ming heard Xia Jie say this, he frowned slightly and remained silent.

"Boy, I've helped you so much, how do you plan to repay me?" Xia Jie suddenly smiled and asked.

"Senior, please tell me what you need from me," Yuan Ming said, clasping his fists after hearing this.

"I'm going to a place recently to do something important. I may need your help." Xia Jie said with a solemn expression.

"Senior, can you tell me where you are going and what you are doing?" Yuan Ming asked with a frown.

"Young man is quite cautious, so if I don't tell you, won't you agree?" Xia Jie raised his brows and said with a half-smile.

Yuan Ming thought for a while and said: "I can help with this, but it will take some time for seniors to wait. I have an appointment with someone else and I have to go to the appointment first."

"It doesn't matter, just go and do your own thing first." Xia Jie waved his hand, not caring.

"Okay." Yuan Ming cupped his fists and said.

"This is for you, you need it." Xia Jie raised his hand and waved, and a piece of yellowed paper flew in front of Yuan Ming.

Yuan Ming took it and took a look, his eyes suddenly lit up. What was written on it was the recipe for making black incense.

At the beginning, he tried and explored bit by bit, so when he saw the materials listed on the paper, he recognized them at a glance.

This original recipe for making black incense is actually almost the same as the recipe he summarized, especially the selection of the main spiritual materials, which are completely consistent.

The only difference is the difference in the ratio of some auxiliary materials and materials.

But even so, Yuan Ming was still very grateful.

"Thank you, senior." He cupped his fists and thanked him.

"Okay, go and do your business." Xia Jie waved his hand and said goodbye.

After Yuan Ming and Xia Jie parted, they immediately rushed to the place agreed with Luo Spider.

It was a bamboo hut built in a valley in the northern and southern regions of the southern border. The environment was quiet and secretive, but it was not the location of a fairy mansion full of spiritual energy.

After Yuan Ming arrived, he let go of his spiritual consciousness and explored for a while, and found the aura of Luo Spider.

He didn't deliberately hide his aura, so when he arrived outside the gate of Zhuliao, Luo Spider was already waiting at the door.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, you made it easy for me to wait!" Luo Spider said angrily.

Yuan Ming smiled and did not answer, and the two of them walked into the bamboo hut.

After coming to the table and sitting down, Yuan Ming asked directly without making any detours: "Where is that senior?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a sudden flash of light on the purple hairpin on Luo Zhu's head, and a hazy white shadow appeared, landed next to her, and transformed into a graceful-looking figure. White-haired old woman.

It is in the state of a spiritual body, and its body shape is somewhat illusory. The whole body seems to be covered with a layer of hazy water vapor, making it appear extremely blurry.

However, after Yuan Ming sensed it for a moment, he realized that although she was in a soul state, her soul fluctuations were not weak. Therefore, the illusory feeling displayed on her body was not due to the dispersion of her spirit body, but was related to her own attributes.

"I would like to express my gratitude to fellow Taoist Yuan for coming to the appointment." The old woman took the initiative to salute and said.

"Senior, you don't have to be polite. I still don't know what to call you?" Yuan Ming quickly stood up and returned the salute with his fists clasped.

"My name is Our Lady of Water Spirit. This time I made an appointment with fellow Taoist Yuan. I hope to use my all-encompassing body to help open a stone door." The old woman said.

"If that's the case, it's not that difficult. I wonder where the stone gate is?" Yuan Ming asked.

"It's a deep valley in the mountains of Beiyu. We need to trouble fellow Taoists to come with us." Our Lady of Water Spirit said.

Yuan Ming frowned slightly, but with the idea of ​​​​taking care of things as they come, he nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, they left the Zhuliao and headed towards the valley.

When he flew over the valley, Yuan Ming was a little dumbfounded. He was not unfamiliar with this place at all. It was the Snake King Valley.

"Is it possible that the two of them are coming to the Snake King Valley?"

Yuan Ming was confused when he heard Luo Zi say: "This is it."

After that, she flew down first, and Yuan Ming could only follow her immediately.

Although he was extremely suspicious in his heart, he still planned to wait and see what happened, so he didn't show any abnormality on his face and just followed along.

Sure enough, they finally reached the depths of the underground cave and stood at the door of the underground palace.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, what I need your help to open is this stone door." The Water Spirit Madonna flew out of the purple hairpin again and said.

Yuan Ming looked at the two of them with suspicion on his face.

Yuan Ming knew exactly what was behind the door. What he was wondering at this moment was, why did the two people open the stone door?

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, you still don't know. This stone gate is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Not only is it extremely strong, it also has strange restrictions inside. Any spiritual energy that touches the stone door will be absorbed by the restrictions. . We Pansi Island tried many methods in the past few years, but failed to open it." Seeing the hesitation on Yuan Ming's face, Luo Zhi explained that it was obviously a misunderstanding.

"So you plan to use brute force to break it open?" Yuan Ming said after hearing this.

"This kind of stone gate cannot be broken without the physical cultivation of Taoist friend Yuan, who possesses the body of all things." said the Holy Mother of Water Spirit.

Yuan Ming sighed secretly in his heart. He had taken away the black stone pillar before. The original restriction of this stone door should have been broken. They only need to try it again and they will know that even without the body of all things, it can be opened now.

However, he naturally would not say these words.

"In that case, let me give it a try." Yuan Ming stepped forward, rubbed his hands and said.

When Water Spirit Mother and Luo Zhidao heard this, they both took a few steps back, with hopeful joy in their eyes.

Yuan Ming raised his hands, and the Demonic Elephant Prison Suppressing Technique in his body immediately began to operate. His muscles bulged and red steam rose up all over his body. It seemed that he had exerted twelve points of strength, which was extremely powerful. In fact, he only activated it for two times. Cheng Lidao.

He took a step forward and punched out, hitting the stone door.

"boom"

A dull sound sounded, and circles of green light rippled on the stone door.

The three of them felt that the entire cave was shaken. Looking at the stone door again, it was intact and showed no signs of being broken.

At this time, even Yuan Ming was confused.

He has opened this stone door before, so he has some understanding of it. He only used 20% of the strength just now, and he had considered it. It was enough to crack the stone door without breaking it directly.

In this way, the task can be completed without making the stone gate look too fragile.

However, the result was beyond his expectation.

The Water Spirit Virgin also frowned, and looked at each other with Luo Spider, confusion appearing in their eyes.

Yuan Ming put away his surprise and immediately used the Demonic Elephant Prison Suppression Skill again, using 50% of his strength to punch the stone door.

With a "boom" sound, the grotto shook again.

Immediately, there was a crisp "click" sound, and a crack gradually spread from the bottom of Yuan Ming's fist.

The Water Spirit Mother was overjoyed when she saw this.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Ming punched him again.

There was no surprise this time. The cracks on the stone door expanded instantly and exploded with a "bang".

Inside the collapsed stone door, black demonic energy lingered, billowing out.

When Yuan Ming saw this, a strange color flashed in his eyes.

He immediately realized that after he took away the Magic Pillar, there must have been some other changes in this underground palace, otherwise it would be impossible to accumulate so much demonic energy in such a short period of time.

The next moment, Yuan Ming was even more confused.

Because he just sensed it briefly and discovered that the demonic energy here was actually richer and purer than before!
