Chapter 427: Breakthrough to Return to the Virtual, Old Dog Town Stone
Chapter 427: Breakthrough to Return to the Virtual, Old Dog Town Stone
Shen Yi stepped out of the main hall, manipulating the heavenly and earthly auras.
The crimson sky reappeared, converging into the boundless Demon Emperor's Palace.
He looked at the dusting brush in his hand. Although he didn't know its grade, Wood Man didn't want to say more, but the old dog had collected almost all the town hall objects of the Nanyang Sect. Now, only this one was left, suggesting that the others had been destroyed by it.
This object, however, has been preserved to this day.
As the future heir to the Nanyang treasure land, Li Xuanqing personally sought out the town hall objects, and they were most likely top-notch treasures as well.
Shen Yi spread out his palm and slowly closed his eyes.
The next moment, the dusting brush in his hand rose straight into the air and turned into a stream of light, falling into the hands of the palace cushion figure.
Reflected in the boundless sea of blood, the dusting brush also exuded a hint of bloody light.
The Nine Demons gradually transformed from virtual to real, and in their originally pure ferocious appearance, there was a hint of vitality, as if they were about to come to life completely. However, the several town stones remained unchanged.
As Shen Yi's mind moved slightly, the entire Boundless Demon Emperor's Palace instantly rushed towards his brow, sinking into his sea of consciousness.
Formed by the convergence of heavenly and earthly auras, the entire five hundred zhang blood sea from this moment on completely transformed into Shen Yi's foundation.
Empowered by his spiritual body, the aura slowly flowed into the five viscera of the Dao Infant.
[Remaining Life Span: 35,973 years]
Aside from the growth in strength, what impressed Shen Yi the most was the increase in his lifespan.
With a separate heaven and earth to nourish him, his lifespan had abruptly increased by 30,000 years.
If he didn't encounter any unforeseen accidents, this could be considered eternal life.
"..."
Li Xuanqing slightly opened his eyes and glanced outside the hall.
When they first met, the other party was only at the late stage of transformation. Now, in front of him, they had broken through to the perfect state.
In other words, the other party had already formed the Dao Palace during the late stage of transformation.
This not only proved that the inheritance of the Nanyang Sect had truly been broken, leading the cultivators astray, but it also highlighted the talent and insight of this young "Sect Master".
It's just that this Dao Palace... it seemed to have a hint of the Boundless Dao Emperor Palace.
If he remembered correctly, when he brought this cultivation technique back, he had specifically left a note, reminding the disciples of the sect not to practice it, but only to increase their knowledge.
Never mind, it might just be similar in appearance.
After all, the people of the Boundless Dao Emperor Sect are like dragons, and when they travel, they are filled with righteous and majestic auras. Where is there such a murderous aura?
Li Xuanqing bowed slightly, also as a way of congratulating the Sect Master on his breakthrough.
Although it was only a breakthrough to the first layer of returning to the virtual.
As for truly considering this group of people as fellow disciples of the Nanyang Sect... they not only had no relation to the former disciples of Nanyang, but their cultivation was also far too lacking in comparison.
Perhaps a trip to Qingyue Sect would help these young people realize the reality of their situation.
Li Xuanqing had long ago given up on the idea of rebuilding the Nanyang Sect. He just wanted to go home and see the ancestor teacher again, staying on this piece of land and quietly waiting for his soul to scatter.
At the same time, outside the main hall.
Shen Yi's spirit was gradually becoming stronger under the nourishment of the Dao Palace, and his sea of consciousness was forcibly expanded even further.
This tangible and visible growth was always immersive.
Until he digested the last bit of his harvest, Shen Yi finally opened his eyes and flew forward.
He also opened the panel.
Some hesitation arose.
To be honest, he was actually reluctant to reshape that black-backed yellow dog into a town stone.
The other party was obviously a demon that relied purely on medicinal power, and their talent was probably not much better than his own. If he had taken a more normal path, after consuming the Nanyang Sect's accumulation, he might not have reached the Unity of the Dao, but at the very least, he should have become something like Bai Yujing.
But now it seemed that the Nanyang Sect didn't leave much for Shen Yi.
At least his life was worry-free.
After all, if he encountered any trouble, he could hide in the Nanyang Sect, and apart from Unity Realm cultivators, no one would be able to touch him.
Even if he really angered a Unity Realm cultivator, it was said that the seven sons of Nanhong would share life and death together. The other sect masters wouldn't just stand by and watch as someone tore down this treasure land.
That wooden man obviously didn't consider them as his own, apart from Li Xuanqing, the biggest help Shen Yi could find now was that dog.
Thinking of this, he hesitated no more.
[Remaining Demon Life Span: 193,000 years]
Under the blessing of various precious medicines and longevity fruits, an ordinary Spirit Hound had a lifespan far surpassing that of the Red-Eyed Phoenix, providing Shen Yi with 45,000 years of demon lifespan.
He erected a town stone and completely absorbed the black-backed old dog's flesh and blood into it.
Then, he began to reshape its demonic soul using its demonic origin.
Never mind the rest, this old dog had something in common with the Red-Eyed Phoenix. Although it had lived for almost 100,000 years, most of that time was spent in slumber.
After infusing the seventh strand of origin, it was finally complete.
Shen Yi placed the old dog into the demon-taming stone, watching as the light on it slowly spread.
Just then, he noticed a sphere of light within the statue's belly, and the dog's eyes remained closed. The entire statue seemed to emanate a yearning for nourishment.
"..."
Shen Yi fell silent for a moment before suddenly realizing something.
He tried to infuse the demon's lifespan into this town stone, and as the lifespan rapidly decreased, the sphere of light in the dog's belly also gradually spread.
Another 45,000 years later, it just barely reached the upper limit of the dog's lifespan.
As it opened its eyes, a formidable aura instantly swept through the area.
"Laifu pays respects to my master!"
Zhang Laifu emerged from Shen Yi's brow and crouched at his feet, rubbing its head against his robe.
Even after a demon's soul is reshaped, it still retains its memories from its previous life.
Its posture clearly showed that it was sincerely grateful from the bottom of its heart.
"What realm are you at now?"
Shen Yi just wanted to know what his 125,000 years of demon lifespan had bought him.
[Remaining Demon Life Span: 68,000 years]
"Still a bit away from being comparable to a fifth-layer Returning Void cultivator," Zhang Laifu said, bowing his head slightly in shame.
"..."
Shen Yi glanced at the old dog silently, feeling a sense of shared suffering.
Over ten millennia, coupled with so many precious medicines, and yet it had only achieved such a level. It was truly pitiful.
If the Red-Eyed Phoenix had consumed these medicines and this amount of lifespan, it would probably have been comparable to a Unity realm cultivator by now.
"Come back."
Shen Yi didn't have too many expectations anyway, and now that the old dog had a higher cultivation, he considered it as an additional trump card.
He retracted Zhang Laifu into his brow.
Shen Yi took out a communication jade slip and sent a message to everyone: "I plan to visit Qingyue Sect. Are you interested in coming along?"
Shen Yi was somewhat self-aware.
With his knowledge and experience, he probably wouldn't be able to discern anything truly valuable there.
Soon, responses started coming in through the jade slip.
Jiang Qiuluan needed to focus on breaking through to the Transformation realm, and the others were in similar situations, having found what they needed and requiring time to digest their gains.
On the other hand, Tong Xinquan had some questions about formations that she wanted to discuss with Shen Yi, so she headed over directly.
As for those who truly wanted to visit Qingyue Sect, there were only Xu Qing'er and Li Qingfeng, both brimming with curiosity.
"It's about time," Shen Yi said, retracting his gaze. Xu Qing'er loved recording new things, and Li Qingfeng was excellent at interacting with others. Apart from their lower realms, they were actually quite talented.
He waited at the site for a while until the three of them gathered.
Shen Yi then took out a Daoist plaque and opened a light curtain in front of him.
Tsk, now that he had broken through to the Returning Void realm, it was also time to rearrange the grand formation of the sect. Otherwise, anyone who entered would end up directly in the main hall where the ancestor's statue was located, which was like leading a guest straight to the bedroom upon their visit.
