Either Yuan Ming continued to show kindness to the East China Sea, answered their prayers, and satisfied their desires, thereby gaining their continuous gratitude and faith.
Or let the cultivators of Donghai always remember the majesty of the God of the Dark Moon and the price of betraying their faith, suppress Donghai with strong measures, and make everyone fear from the bottom of their hearts, not daring not to believe or not to worship.
The latter was the previous model of Wuyue Sect, and it was also one of the fundamental purposes of starting the East China Sea Rebellion.
Yuan Ming is not here to replace Wu Yue Sect, so he will not consider the second method at all. However, for Yuan Ming, the first method is a disguised form of restraint, and it is not in line with his own original intention.
.
He defeated the Wuyue Sect and the East China Sea Alliance provided faith and willpower. In essence, this was just a transaction. Yuan Ming knew this, and Wan Tianren and the others also knew this. However, they did not point it out and did not understand each other.
declare.
The world of Xiu is not completely indifferent, friendship can also exist, but more of it is interests.
Moreover, Yuan Ming currently has no way to break through the witchcraft. No matter how much wish power he harvests, he will not be able to break through. He can only store all of it on the White Jade Lotus Platform for other uses. Therefore, he does not respond to the foreseeable decline in wish power.
Be prepared to do more.
When the "deal" to pacify the Wuyue Sect is over, whether or not to believe in the Moon God will also become the freedom of the people of the East China Sea.
Yuan Ming made up his mind, then stopped and opened his eyes, preparing to leave the seclusion.
"Has the problem of the soul been resolved?" Xiying noticed that Yuan Ming had woken up.
In the past half month, Xiying never left Yuan Ming's side, always protecting Yuan Ming.
"It's almost solved, but there is no follow-up cultivation method. My soul cultivation can only be temporarily slowed down, and the absorption of wish power also needs to be slowed down, otherwise a similar situation may happen again." Yuan Ming shook his head and said with a bitter smile.
"Alas, the seventh-level formula of "Mingyue Jue" is still in the hands of Wu Yueshen. Before completing his order, even my father can't get the formula, and there is nothing I can do." Xiying said.
"You have helped me enough. Besides, since there is a seventh-level magic trick, there is always a chance that we can get it. But I am afraid it will be useless to stay in the East China Sea. I have to go to other areas to look for opportunities. Maybe I can
Maybe we can find other witchcraft techniques." Yuan Ming said.
"In that case, how about you accompany me back to Southern Xinjiang first and start from there?" Xiying thought for a while and suddenly suggested.
"Southern Xinjiang? It's not impossible. It just so happens that I'm going back to see my old friends, but why do you suddenly want to go back? Did you receive some news?" Yuan Ming was slightly startled and said.
"No, it's just that I want to go to Honglian Island and return this body to the Xiao family." Xiying pointed to her chest.
Only then did Yuan Ming remember that Xi Ying's current appearance was not her original appearance, but that she had borrowed the body of Xiao Ying, a monk from Honglian Island. But after spending so long together, he almost forgot about it.
"Come to think of it, didn't you say you were just going to use her identity for a while? Why did you continue to use it until today?" Yuan Ming suddenly became curious.
"In the beginning, I just borrowed it to play with for a while, but then I happened to discover a secret method that required her body to cooperate with the research. I practiced the Jumang Ling Jue before, but it was actually for that secret method. Now I have almost studied it.
There is no need to continue practicing Jumang Lingjue, and the physical body should naturally be returned to its original owner." Xiying explained.
"I see, that's fine, I'll accompany you..."
Yuan Ming suddenly realized, and when he was about to accept Xiying's invitation from Nanjiang, he suddenly felt a burning sensation in his right arm, causing him to shrink his arm, showing a trace of pain.
"What's wrong with you?" Xiying became nervous.
Yuan Ming opened his mouth, but before he could answer, the Heaven Stealing Cauldron suddenly flew out from the mark on his arm. A strong suction force emerged from the cauldron, and in the next moment, Yuan Ming's main soul and first soul were directly absorbed.
The second part of the soul was pulled out of the sea of consciousness and inhaled into the cauldron.
Yuan Ming was caught off guard and immediately wanted to call back his soul, but found that his soul seemed to be sealed by something and did not respond to his call for a while.
At the same time, Yuan Ming was also keenly aware that the connection between himself and the Heaven-Stealing Cauldron was rapidly weakening, and he was almost no longer able to sense the space in the Heaven-Stealing Cauldron.
At this time, Yuan Ming didn't even care about his own soul, and quickly moved out his parents and all the items stored in the Heaven-Stealing Cauldron.
And as soon as he finished all this, the Tiantian Cauldron was completely sealed.
Yuan Ming discovered that from this moment on, he completely lost his sense of the space in the cauldron, and naturally could not enter the Heaven-Stealing Cauldron again.
However, his connection with the Heaven Stealing Cauldron was not completely severed. Although it was much weaker than before, it had only returned to the level where he had not advanced to the Dan Formation and opened the space in the cauldron.
Yuan Ming looked at the Heaven Stealing Cauldron suspended in front of him, and once again realized clearly that he knew too little about this artifact that had been with him for a long time.
He took a deep breath, first took his parents out of the retreat, and settled down for the time being, and then he and Xiying went into retreat again to study the sudden change of the Tiantian Cauldron together.
Yuan Minghun's third cultivation of the Dharma Body, although the soul is no longer in the body, there is still the Dharma Cultivation Nascent Soul to maintain the operation of the mind and body.
After some induction, he unexpectedly discovered that although his main soul and split soul were in a sealed state that could not be recalled, they were still connected to his body and could share the things he saw and sensed with himself.
At the same time, Yuan Ming discovered that his main soul and split soul were now in a white space, surrounded by extremely pure will power, floating around the soul like water.
There are eight white jade dragon heads suspended above the space. Each one is vivid and lifelike, like a real dragon, and their mouths are constantly spitting out white flames, thus forming a dense network of fire, covering the head of Yuan Ming's soul like a sieve.
.
And further above, countless miscellaneous wishes fall from the void. After being calcined and refined by the white fire net, the miscellaneous emotions in them will be completely removed and turned into pure and refined wishes, which are stored in Yuan.
Mark the soul all around.
Could this be the inside of the White Jade Lotus Platform?
Yuan Ming had some speculation in his mind. The reason why the wish power provided by the Tiantian Cauldron could be so pure may be due to the eight white jade dragon heads and the fire net.
However, how should the soul leave here?
Yuan Ming tried to bring his soul closer to the white fire net. Although he did not feel anything strange as the distance got closer, when his soul touched the white flame, a heartbreaking pain swept through his body.
The soul made him cry out in pain. The soul was seriously injured in an instant and he lost control. He immediately fell into the pure will power below.
But soon, the pure willpower in the space spontaneously poured into his soul to help him repair the damage. In less than a breath, Yuan Ming's soul returned to its original state and returned to Yuan Ming's control.
At the same time, Yuan Ming also discovered that after what happened just now, his soul had become much more solidified, and the soul power in his soul seemed to have been further refined.
Yuan Ming was secretly pleasantly surprised, and the slight annoyance caused by the sudden change in the Stealing Heaven Cauldron also disappeared.
After a brief pause, he once again tried to bring his soul closer to the white flame. After being burned, he was quickly repaired by the pure will power. This was repeated over and over again. Although he was completely unable to break the fire network blockade and leave the white space, Yuan was firmly allowed to do so.
Ming's soul has been greatly improved.
However, this process of improvement was too painful. Yuan Ming tried it several times, but soon felt that his spirit could not support it, so he could only give up temporarily and let his soul rest for a while.
After several attempts, he also discovered that white flames are almost naturally restrained by soul power. It is impossible for the soul alone to break through the fire net and escape from the white space.
But the soul cultivation methods all depend on the soul. Now that Yuan Ming's main soul, first soul, and second soul are all trapped, his soul cultivation methods are naturally completely unusable. The impact on his strength is extremely serious, but he can temporarily
But there was nothing he could do. He could only accept his fate temporarily and let his soul stay in the white space.
Then, Yuan Ming checked the other abilities of the Heaven Stealing Cauldron and found that except for the inaccessibility of the space inside the cauldron, other abilities, such as collecting wish power, lighting incense and possessing bodies, were not affected and could still be used as usual.
.
Yuan Ming breathed a long sigh of relief and let go of his worries.
Upon seeing this, Xiying also asked about the current status of the Tiantian Cauldron.
"Could it be that you injected too much will power, causing the Tiantian Cauldron to transform again?" Xiying guessed after listening to Yuan Ming's description.
"Maybe, but the important thing now is not to figure out the cause, but to find a solution. Otherwise, if this continues, there will be no difference between my soul cultivation and being useless." Yuan Ming smiled bitterly.
"There is no way to get out from the inside, how about you try from the outside? I remember you said that you haven't completely refined the restrictions on the Heaven-stealing Cauldron yet, right?" Xiying asked.
"The restrictions on the tripod are very complicated. I have been taking the time to study them, but there are few results." Yuan Ming said thoughtfully.
"No matter what level the treasure is, the restrictions that can be placed on it are always the same. You'd better do more research on the knowledge about the restriction array. It should be helpful to you in refining the Heaven-stealing Cauldron." Xiying recommended.
"Okay, I just want to go to Red Lotus Island this time. The Xiao family is famous for its formations. There should be many books related to the ban in the family. You can borrow them when the time comes. On the way there, you, the master of formations, will learn a lot.
Give me some pointers. By the way, you know that I can possess others through black incense. Otherwise, let me possess you and try. It will be easier to learn." Yuan Ming's eyes lit up and he immediately suggested.
"Absolutely not!" For some reason, Xiying rolled her eyes at Yuan Ming and sternly rejected Yuan Ming's proposal of possession.
Yuan Ming didn't know why, but Xi Xiying was afraid that he would continue to ask questions, so he turned over his hands and took out many formation books.
"You still have to learn things like formations by yourself. Don't always think about taking shortcuts. You should read these classics first. If you have anything you don't understand, sort them out and ask me." Xiying gave Yuan Ming all the formations books.
"Learning about possession is not a shortcut, it can also give you a deeper understanding of the formation techniques and the way spiritual power operates." Yuan Ming was still a little unwilling.
"Looking at your book honestly, formations and exercises are different, and the effect of possessing or not possessing the body is almost the same." Xiying obviously did not want to discuss this issue with Yuan Ming any more.
Seeing this, Yuan Ming had no choice but to give up.
Now that their goals were clear, the two of them did not continue to retreat, and soon began to arrange some matters before leaving the East China Sea.
