Chapter 898: Emperor-Level Soul Devouring Fire Gu

This Soul Devouring Fire Gu, which eventually devoured all its companions, lazily crawled to the corner and fell asleep.

As it fell into a deep sleep, snow-white silk threads spurted out from its body surface, and soon it was wrapped into a cocoon, with a faint white halo on the outside of the cocoon.

Xiao Lin couldn't help showing a happy expression on his face when he saw this. He knew that this was the last step of the Soul Devouring Fire Gu's advancement, breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly. Only after this metamorphosis can it advance to the emperor level.

But this process is also very dangerous. Any carelessness or interruption in the middle will lead to the failure of evolution.

Xiao Lin withdrew from the beast ring. The experiment had basically been successful to this point, and whether it could really advance to the emperor level in the end was a bit of luck.

After all, the advancement of spirit insects is different from that of humans and monsters. Whether humans or monsters, when advancing to a greater realm, they must experience the baptism of heavenly tribulation from the foundation-building stage and above. Of course, there are some surprises in the heavenly tribulation between the two.

But spirit insects are different. They advance by devouring a large number of their own kind, accumulating the power of origin, and thereby breaking through their own realm.

There is also a certain probability when breaking through, but this probability is much greater than the tribulation of the human race and the demon race when they advance, at least about 50%.

After thinking about it, Xiao Lin selected the previous emperor-level great perfection soul-devouring fire Gu, put it in another compartment, and continued to experiment...

At the same time, Xiao Lin also began to cultivate a large number of demon-transforming grasses in the spirit wood space. Not only that, Xiao Lin also issued a task to collect seedlings of spirit herbs above the fourth level through the Tiandao Building. Once the soul-devouring fire Gu advances to the emperor level, it needs a large amount of demon-transforming grass and fourth-level spirit herbs to consolidate its realm. Otherwise, if it is not careful, it will not only degenerate to the emperor level, but it may even die.

Xiao Lin naturally will not let the emperor-level soul-devouring fire Gu, which was cultivated with great efforts and loss of a large number of emperor-level great perfection soul-devouring fire Gu, fail.

In this way, Xiao Lin fell into an extremely busy state again. Not only did he need to refine his physical body, he was also constantly experimenting with the cultivation of the Emperor-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu. In his spare time, he used it to practice the Qingluan Shengmo Yuhan Jue.

This fulfilling state lasted for three years.

One day, Xiao Lin opened his eyes from his meditation and looked at the second soul beside him, who was also sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, regulating his breathing and mana.

The second soul looked exactly like Xiao Lin. The only difference was that the skin of the second soul was a light jade white, and every once in a while, a light white halo would flash.

After several years of condensation, the physical body of the second soul finally took shape, but there was still one thing that Xiao Lin felt was a little bit unsatisfactory.

That is, the physical body condensed from this jade corpse, although it has human characteristics and flesh and blood bones, looks no different from the human body, but Xiao Lin, who practiced the Tianyin Yuqiong Corpse Refining Method, found that the jade corpse lacked the potential of a real physical body during the process of condensing the physical body.

That is to say, as the realm of the second soul is improved, the physical body cannot grow accordingly.

However, the body of the jade corpse is the physical body of the corpse in the transformation stage, which is enough for the second soul to be cultivated to the transformation stage without the physical body being unable to withstand the mana and collapse. Therefore, for Xiao Lin, although it is not perfect, it is enough.

Now Xiao Lin still needs to practice several secret magic skills of the second soul, one of which is the fusion technique. After the second soul merges with the physical body, it has become an independent individual and cannot be integrated into Xiao Lin's body at any time like before.

After practicing the fusion technique, the second soul can be stored in the Dantian Qi Sea. In this way, it can be released at a critical moment to have an unexpected effect on the enemy.

Xiao Lin thought about the practice formula of the fusion technique in his mind. After a while, he sat cross-legged with his hands on his knees, and the mana in his body slowly circulated.

......

Spring goes and autumn comes, and the original tranquility of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong was suddenly broken.

On this day, a long rainbow that penetrated the sky and earth shot from afar, and in the blink of an eye it arrived at the Haoyang Mountains. This long rainbow did not stop at all, and flew directly to the top of the Haoyang Mountain, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

In the white hall, the leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong looked at the old man in front of him with a gloomy face.

"The collision of the formation caused a crack in the seal?"

"Yes, leader, after a year of fighting, more than 100,000 immortal soldiers of my Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong were killed or injured, and the Buddhist soldiers of the Western Extreme Ancient Buddha Tianzong were not much better, at least more than 100,000 were killed, and as for the second-generation elders above the Nascent Soul stage, the number of people killed was 12."

The leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong did not speak after hearing this, but his eyes exuded a cold air. He looked coldly at the direction of the hall entrance for a long time without saying a word.

After a long time, he asked, "Master Fu stopped the fight?"

"Yes, Master Fu not only showed up, but also an old monk came with him. According to Brother Wang's judgment, this person may be Master Wuxiang from the Ancient Buddha Tianzong of the West?"

"The people from the Ancient Buddha Tianzong of the West have retreated. Is this true?"

"It's true. After Master Fu and Master Wuxiang showed up, the Buddha suddenly changed and exuded a strong demonic aura. At that time, Master Fu exclaimed and shouted the three words "True Demonic Aura", but not long after that, the Buddha passed away."

"The Buddha has passed away?" Upon hearing this, the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong suddenly burst out with a soaring aura, which directly caused a gust of wind to erupt in the hall, and even the people below took several steps back.

"Yes, the Buddha has passed away."

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong fell into deep thought.

A moment later, a white light suddenly shot out from outside the hall, and the white light shot towards the leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong at an extremely alarming speed.

The leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong waved his sleeves and caught the white light in his hand. When the white light dissipated, there was a curled up note inside.

After opening the note, the leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong carefully read it. The more he read, the gloomier his face became. When he finished reading it, his palm flashed with a spiritual light, and the note turned into ashes silently.

"Okay, I understand. Since the Xiji Ancient Buddha Tianzong has retreated, everyone in Longyin Valley can be called back." The leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong waved his hand and said.

"As ordered." The man bowed and saluted, then walked out of the hall and soon disappeared.

After he left, the leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong sighed softly: "What is coming will come, alas."

With a flash of inspiration, the figure of the leader of the Great Emperor Haoran Tianzong disappeared.

.....

One day, Xiao Lin woke up from his meditation, and a trace of joy suddenly appeared on his face. After a slight shake, Xiao Lin had already entered the beast ring.

In the beast ring, in the corner of the compartment, there was a thumb-sized red beetle lying, looking like a whole body, exuding a faint dark red spiritual essence.

This soul-devouring fire insect was jade-red in color, slender, and extremely gorgeous. Moreover, countless runes seemed to be engraved on its shell, which emerged one by one as the spirit charm flashed.

Just as Xiao Lin was observing the soul-devouring fire insect that had just emerged from its cocoon in amazement, its body suddenly expanded rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it grew to a size of several feet, almost filling the entire compartment. At the same time, a scorching breath suddenly swept out.

Seeing this scene really scared Xiao Lin. The scorching breath actually made him feel like burning the world. Xiao Lin pinched the magic formula without hesitation, and a stream of magic power was released, condensing an ice light shield around the compartment.

The scorching breath hit the light shield, and it immediately made a trembling sound, but soon, the soul-devouring fire insect that was several feet in size shrank again, and then shrank to the size of a thumb, lying there quietly.

Xiao Lin showed a suspicious expression on his face. He had cultivated the Soul Devouring Fire Gu for many years and knew that ordinary spirit insects could not transform into human form, but as their realms improved, their bodies would become larger and larger. At the end of their cultivation, they could even be comparable to those immortal spirits in heaven and earth.

And they have the power to destroy the world. Of course, this Soul Devouring Fire Gu that had just advanced to the Emperor level was far from reaching this level.

But the bloodthirsty aura and the extremely hot flame power emanating from it made Xiao Lin feel terrified. After advancing to the Emperor level, the Soul Devouring Fire Gu had already emitted the Purple Lotus True Fire, which was even more powerful than the Yuanying True Fire of the Yuanying cultivator.

The most important thing was that its soul-devouring power would reach an extremely terrifying level.

Of course, Xiao Lin could only know the true power after verification.

The Soul Devouring Fire Gu had just advanced, and it would take some time to consolidate its realm and adapt to the power of the Emperor level, but through experiments, Xiao Lin had decided to start cultivating a large number of Emperor-level Soul Devouring Fire Gu.

After Xiao Lin's main body left the beast ring, he thought about it, and a green light flashed from his body, revealing a person.

"Sorry for the trouble."

Xiao Lin smiled slightly, and the second soul said solemnly: "We are one body, why bother."

With a flash of green light, it had already entered the beast ring to help Xiao Lin cultivate the emperor-level soul-devouring fire Gu.

According to Xiao Lin's estimation, tens of thousands of emperor-level soul-devouring fire Gu that have reached perfection can cultivate more than ten emperor-level soul-devouring fire Gu. Ten emperor-level soul-devouring fire Gu are enough to double his combat power.

After making arrangements, Xiao Lin planned to continue practicing the small nine-turn refining magic, but before he could enter into meditation, a spiritual light shot out from outside the cave, and it was someone sending a letter with a flying sword.

After reading it, Xiao Lin's face suddenly showed a thoughtful expression.

It turned out that this letter was sent by Yulin Zhantian, and it seemed that the date of departure had arrived.

Xiao Lin sorted out his belongings and turned into a dark green spiritual light. He left Hanyang Mountain and shot towards the north, soon disappearing in the clouds.

......

Longyin Valley

Looks long and narrow. Looking down from the air, it is like a giant dragon lying in the mountains. Its long and narrow body, four claws, dragon head and dragon tail are lifelike.

Longyin Valley is located in Youzhou. According to rumors, countless thousands of years ago, the origin of the ancestral veins of the Central Plains was Longyin Valley located in Youzhou. At that time, Youzhou had extremely rich spiritual energy and many immortal sects. It is said that the four ancient sects all originated from Youzhou at that time.

Later, no one knew what happened. The ancestral veins in Youzhou were moved to Haoyang Mountains. Not only that, after the ancestral veins were moved, the spiritual energy in the entire Youzhou quickly became thin.

In the end, all the sects moved away one after another, resulting in the desolate situation today.

As for why Youzhou has fallen to this point, and who moved the ancestral vein to the Haoyang Mountains, it is unknown. If you want to move an ancestral vein, you must have the ability to move mountains and fill the sea to do it.

In Longyin Valley, Yu Lin Zhantian was looking solemnly ahead. The entire Longyin Valley was shrouded in thick white fog. Even in the air, it was impossible to see the situation in the valley.

Once you enter Longyin Valley, it is a different scene. The thick white fog is about ten feet from the ground, but below this ten feet, it is extremely clear.

Yu Lin Zhantian looked at the rock wall in front of him, which was covered with dense rune auras of various colors, almost covering most of the valley.

In the middle, a dark crack appeared, and black rune auras were constantly emitting from it, which seemed incompatible with the surrounding rune auras.

Yu Lin Zhantian was staring at the dark crack without blinking his eyes.

"Brother Yulin, it seems that the seal in Longyin Valley has indeed loosened, but I don't know who caused this crack? Isn't it said that even a Divine Transformation cultivator can't destroy it at all?"

"The legend is right. There is only one possibility for this situation, that is, the demons inside may have recovered some of their strength." Yulin Zhantian said with a heavy face.

"Brother Yulin, it is rumored that the Buddha's death is related to demons. Even the massive invasion of our Daqian Dynasty by the Ancient Buddha Tianzong in the West is also due to demons." Behind Yulin Zhantian stood a stunning woman who looked about 22 or 23 years old. Her hair was wrapped in a golden net on her head and a silver hairpin was inserted diagonally.

"Junior Sister Feng, please be patient. Uncle Fu also gave some instructions before coming here. When Junior Brother Xiaolin comes, I will tell you all about it."

As soon as the words fell, a dark green spiritual light fell from the sky. When the spiritual light dissipated, Xiao Lin's figure appeared.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time." Xiao Lin came in front of the few people and said with a smile.

"Are you Xiao Lin?" At this time, a man walked out from behind Yulin Zhantian. He stared at Xiao Lin coldly and asked.

Xiao Lin heard this, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He had recognized at a glance that this person was the master of Liangyi Aurora Palace-Wu Qinglin.

"Not bad." Xiao Lin said lightly.

"Good, very good, you are so courageous. Not only did you break into my Liangyi Aurora Palace, but you also seriously injured my wife. Now all your cultivation has dissipated, and you can only rely on drugs to maintain your life. How do you settle this account?"

"No matter how you settle it, Xiao will accept it. Even if you don't look for Xiao, Xiao will personally visit Liangyi Aurora Palace one day."

"Master Wu, didn't we agree to put this matter aside for the time being, and after coming out of the illusion, the two of you will resolve the dispute?"

"Brother Yulin, don't worry. Since this master has agreed, he will naturally keep his promise."
