After a short wait, the soul power from the remains of the Moon Goddess fell from the sky, pouring down like a waterfall along the light pillar in the center of the formation.
This soul power is extremely pure, without any impurities, and its quality is so high that it can even be compared with the purest power of moonlight.
When Xia Jie and Xi Ying saw this, without any hesitation, they immediately started to use their skills to absorb the emerging soul power.
On their bodies, the aura of soul cultivators increased rapidly. Even for Xia Jie, who had reached the peak of Ming Wu, the soul power in the sea of consciousness was growing again at this moment, moving towards a deeper level.
Yuan Ming stood aside to protect them. Although he did not actively absorb this soul power, some of it was still integrated into his body.
Under the influence of this soul power, his sea of consciousness became clearer than ever before, and the strength of his soul was steadily increasing.
What is surprising is that the soul power of the Moon Goddess seems to be fundamentally different from ordinary soul power.
Under the influence of this soul power, not only the three of them, but also the many spiritual treasures carried by Yuan Ming were also affected, and began to actively absorb this soul power, showing signs of increasing strength.
Among them, the most eye-catching one is undoubtedly Shura Palace.
If the speed at which other spiritual treasures absorb soul power can be described as a trickle, then the speed at which Shura Palace devours it can be described as a flood.
The amount of soul power it absorbs from the Moon Goddess is actually comparable to that of Xi Ying and Xia Jie combined.
Fortunately, the soul power of the Moon Goddess is endless, and the speed of the influx is much faster than imagined. Otherwise, the absorption of Shura Palace may also affect Xiying and Xia Jie.
It was precisely because Yuan Ming saw this that he did not stop Shura Palace from continuing to absorb soul power.
With the continuous influx of soul power, the World Tree in Shura Palace has also undergone amazing changes.
Previously, although Yuan Ming transplanted the World Tree into the Shura Palace and forcibly combined the two, in fact, there was always an indescribable feeling of rejection between the two.
However, now, Yuan Ming can clearly feel that this feeling of rejection is dissolving at an alarming speed.
The World Tree is gradually integrating with the Shura Palace. This integration is not just a superficial entanglement of roots and filling of branches and leaves, but goes deep into the essence of both.
At the same time, Yuan Ming's clone of the World Tree was quietly drawn out, and began a strange fusion with the World Tree in the Shura Palace.
Although the two have the same origin, their growth trajectories are quite different. This difference has not hindered their integration, but has made the process faster than expected.
In just a few breaths, they blended together like water and milk, and could no longer distinguish each other.
The fusion is still continuing, and the World Tree is like a huge heart beating in the Shura Palace at this moment.
Every heartbeat is accompanied by the slight vibration of the Shura Palace, as if the entire space is resonating with it.
What's even more amazing is that with every heartbeat, a huge amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth is attracted. Like blood pumped by the heart, they are continuously injected into the Shura Palace, injecting new vitality and strength into it.
.
Nourished by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the power of Shura Palace is growing at an alarming rate, and the gap with the Three Realms Immortal Boat is also rapidly narrowing.
It seems that it won't be long before it can equal or even surpass the Immortal Boat of the Three Realms.
In Ziyun Palace, the three people's absorption of the soul power of the Mingyue Goddess continued, but on the side of Izumo Realm, the Lord of Mingyue Palace began to feel a little uneasy.
She stared at the soul power that was constantly passing by, and an indescribable surprise surged in her heart.
"Something's wrong. No matter how much the saint borrows power, she can't extract such a huge amount. According to the past rules, she should have been eroded by this power and turned into nourishment." The face of the Lord of Mingyue Palace gradually became solemn.
.
So, she did not hesitate to use the magic formula and spread her voice far away: "Open the sect-protecting formation immediately and seal off the space near the sect!"
Her voice echoed in Mingyue Palace, shocking all the disciples like thunder.
The elder who was in charge of the sect-protecting formation also felt nervous. Although he did not know what happened specifically, he immediately followed the order of the Lord of the Light Moon Palace and activated the sect-protecting formation.
After a moment, a dazzling moon-white light curtain rose from the ground, completely covering the Mingyue Palace.
This great formation is like an indestructible barrier, completely isolating the inner and outer space, and the entire void is firmly locked.
All space spells within the scope of this formation will lose their effectiveness, like a trapped bird unable to spread its wings and fly.
The sect-protecting formation of Mingyue Palace has been reinforced and perfected by successive Mahayana palace masters. Even among the seventh-level formations, it is among the top.
However, when the formation was opened, the expression of the Lord of Mingyue Palace did not soften.
Because in front of her, the soul power of the Moon Goddess seemed not to be affected by the sect-protecting formation at all, and was still being continuously drawn into the void like a trickle.
Although the speed is less than half a percent slower than before, such losses are still unbearable for Mingyue Palace.
"Who is able to ignore the influence of my Mingyue Palace's sect-protecting formation and have such a profound understanding of the body of the goddess Mingyue?" The master of Mingyue Palace frowned, his thoughts were racing, but he was completely confused.
…
Half an hour later, inside the Ziyun Palace, the soul power of the Moon Goddess was like a trickling stream, quietly nourishing Yuan Ming and the others.
Under this nourishment, Xiying's soul power has reached the pinnacle of destiny witches, and is only one step away from the realm of ghost witches.
It's just this one step away, but it's like a vast abyss lying in front of it. It's difficult to cross easily with the improvement of soul power alone.
Yuan Ming also benefited a lot. His soul power had climbed to the middle stage of Ming Wu without him knowing it. The cultivation level that he had once neglected was also rising steadily.
And the most astonishing thing is the Shura Palace that has absorbed a massive amount of soul power.
Its power has already surpassed the Three Realms Immortal Boat, and is even better. Whether it is the power of tearing apart the interface or its own sturdiness, it has reached unprecedented heights.
What is particularly important is that the fusion of Yuan Ming's World Tree clone and the Shura Palace allowed his clone soul to gradually transform into the weapon spirit of the Shura Palace as it ascended.
Although this weapon spirit is not as agile and intelligent as Xihezi and Kong, it is connected with Yuan Ming's mind and can control it with just a thought, which is far superior to ordinary weapon spirits.
The amount of soul power absorbed by the three of them was so huge that it was unimaginable.
However, the soul power of the Moon Goddess seems to be endless, pouring in continuously, seemingly without end.
Just as Yuan Ming and Xi Ying were immersed in the nourishment of this power, they gradually felt uncomfortable.
Waves of inexplicable swelling and pain came from the sea of consciousness, as if it had reached its limit.
At this moment, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly changed.
The sky above them instantly became gloomy, and a chill emerged out of thin air, making Yuan Ming and Xiying shiver.
Immediately afterwards, an earth-shaking loud noise came from above their heads. The two of them suddenly felt their energy and blood surge, and their whole bodies felt cold. Their hearts felt as if a huge stone was pressing on them, and negative emotions poured out like a tide.
Looking up, I saw a pale gray full moon appearing out of thin air. In just a moment, it turned into an endless gray cloud, shrouding the sky above the three of them, and the roaring sound was endless.
"It's the Yin Yue Soul Tribulation!" Xiying's eyes narrowed and she exclaimed in a low voice.
Obviously, this is a sign that Senior Xia Jie is about to break through the ghost witch.
Yuan Ming's expression tightened, and he immediately stopped absorbing soul power and walked away with Xi Ying.
Above the dark clouds, a series of thunders flashed and jumped. Although it was not dazzling, it gave people a thrilling feeling.
Deep in the clouds, dull and sad loud sounds continued to sound, like ancient bells ringing.
The surrounding wind suddenly blew up, biting the bones, and the ground was soon covered with a layer of light gray frost.
Shrouded in this wind, Xia Jie sat beside the formation, the blood on his body quickly fading away, and his face was as pale as paper, like a dead corpse.
Just when everyone thought Xia Jie was about to be swallowed up by the cold, his forehead suddenly lit up and his soul jumped out of the sea of consciousness.
He clapped his palms together, and a powerful wave of soul power spread out, blocking the surrounding wind.
At this moment, the thunder in the clouds suddenly exploded, and arcs of lightning fell from the sky. At first they were sparsely scattered, but in the blink of an eye they were like a torrential downpour, dense as a curtain.
At the same time, the surrounding wind became more fierce, as if it was going to completely annihilate Xia Jie.
And at this time when the wind and thunder were blowing, another ball of dark fire fell from the clouds.
Yuan Ming just glanced at it from a distance, and then he felt as if a flame was igniting in the sea of consciousness, and the burning pain spread throughout his body.
Xia Jie was not afraid at all.
He pointed his right hand to the sky and condensed his soul power into a giant sword, splitting the falling thunderbolts one by one and forming a dike with his left hand, blocking out the evil wind.
Then, he recited a spell and inhaled fiercely, swallowing the yin fire into his belly.
Although the flames in his soul's abdomen were bright, he did not suffer any damage.
Time passed slowly like running water, but the disaster pouring out from the depths of the clouds did not stop at all. On the contrary, it continued to intensify, turning into ghost water, dark sounds and many other strange sights. Yuan Ming could not help but feel chilled in his heart.
I broke into a cold sweat for Xia Jie.
However, Xia Jie seemed to be well prepared. No matter what kind of disaster befell him, he could always cope with it with ease, and even showed a certain degree of ease.
After an unknown amount of time, the turbulent clouds in the sky suddenly began to shrink and condensed into a bright full moon again.
At the same time, all disasters such as thunder, cold wind, etc. also disappeared instantly, as if they had never appeared.
Against the background of the moonlight, Xia Jie's soul slowly rose, and dazzling brilliance emerged from his soul body. These brilliance gradually condensed into a divine wheel aperture, like an indestructible barrier, tightly covering his soul.
The moment Xia Jie's soul coincided with the full moon, a majestic wave of air suddenly spread out, and the gray full moon instantly disappeared without a trace.
At this time, only Xia Jie's soul was hanging high in the sky, shining with all kinds of brilliance, as bright as the second moon in the night sky.
