Chapter 526: The original sin of the demon, the difficulty of grafting
"This is... Gu Immortal Mountain?"
Qin Yi stood in the air in front of a mountain that was filled with miasma below six hundred feet and shrouded in clouds and mist above six hundred feet.
Looking around, I saw dim moths flying from all directions, sinking into the mountains and disappearing like moths rushing to a flame.
"Gu Immortal Mountain is quite close to the Central Plains."
The previous Snow Wolf Mountains were not within the limit of distance that Qin Yi could walk.
Compare the distance to Yinshan Mountain.
"Gu Immortal Mountain is only less than a hundred miles farther than Yin Mountain."
Obviously the Gu Immortal lineage is closer to the Central Plains, but compared to the Di people, the barbarians are much less aggressive.
"It should be determined by the geographical environment, right?"
Qin Yi thought of the completely different topography of Nanman and Beidi.
There is a traceless grassland over Beidi, and the tribes are far apart, but there are mounts to represent them. Although they are far apart, the time is actually shorter.
There is one river for one mile and one marsh for ten miles. Mountains are connected to mountains and forests are connected to forests. Miasma is pervasive and poisonous insects are everywhere. The living environment is much worse than that of Beidi. Although the distance is short, because there are no mounts, it is difficult to travel to the Central Plains.
longer.
In addition, the demon clans that rule them are different, so their attitudes towards the Central Plains are naturally very different.
"The Snow Wolf clan and the Black Wolf clan both belong to the wolf clan, but the Gu Immortal clan belongs to the Zerg clan. The two clans are fundamentally different. The Gu Immortal clan naturally has many scruples in what they do. If the Black Wolf clan hadn't invited them this time, Gu Immortal clan would probably
Even the immortals may not be willing to wade into this muddy water."
Qin Yi's eyes flashed with golden light, following the dim light moth, he looked towards the Gu Immortal Mountain.
"cocoon?"
On the trees in Gu Immortal Mountain, cocoons of about two meters each hang.
After those ghostly light moths flew into the Gu Immortal Mountain, they didn't know what to choose but randomly picked a cocoon and submerged themselves into it.
After observing for a while, Qin Yi found that the number of ghostly light moths absorbed by these cocoons was not equal.
Some cocoons absorb more ghost moths, some absorb less, and some cocoons don't absorb even a ghost moth for a long time.
"There is definitely something wrong with these cocoons."
The golden light in Qin Yi's eyes no longer flickered, and the golden fluorescence shone forward like two light bulbs.
Then the cocoon begins to fade away, revealing the scene inside.
"This is... a person?"
Qin Yi quickly judged that this was a human body.
These people have been dead for a long time.
"Who are these people?"
Qin Yi determined the identities of these people based on the information about the Nanman collected in the previous message column searched in the appraisal book.
"Gu Master?"
There is a custom in the Southern Barbarians that after a Gu Master dies, he needs to be sent to the Gu Immortal Mountain for burial.
The way they were buried was in cocoons hung on trees.
They believe that Gu Masters are people who are under the influence of Gu Immortals. After death, they will break out of their cocoons and be reborn as Gu Immortals.
The more powerful the Gu Immortal is, the greater the possibility of transforming into a Gu Immortal after death. It is said that those Gu Masters with the title of Great Witch may be summoned by the Gu Immortal Mountain and transform into a Gu Immortal while they are still alive.
"These Gu Immortals should be half-demon from the Zerg tribe."
The Fate Gu on those Gu Immortals should be fundamentally different from the Fate Gu on ordinary people.
Can grow further.
Even if the Gu Master dies, the Gu will not die and can still absorb the ghostly light moths and continue to grow.
And these dim light moths are transformed by the fate of ordinary people after death...
"Tsk, tsk, it's really not a waste at all."
Qin Yi compared the methods used by several demon clans to support humans that he knew.
The Black Wolf tribe is the most brutal and eats them directly.
The Snow Wolf Tribe uses shamanic and sacrificial methods.
It is obviously more than one level higher than the methods of the Black Wolf Clan.
However, the Snow Wolf Clan's sacrifices require corpses, which is obviously a notch lower than the Ghost and God Clan, which also focuses on sacrifices but mainly absorbs the faith of living people.
The methods of the Gu insect clan go beyond the scope of sacrifice, relying entirely on the cultivation system specially created for the human race based on life Gu, and try their best to benefit the human race and cultivate the best Gu insects for them.
Make the best use of everything, make full use of every human race and life Gu, and don't waste it even if you live or die, all become the materials for cultivating Gu Immortals.
When Qin Yi analyzed this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"This method of the Gu Immortal Clan is not weak at all compared to the Ghost Clan."
However, Qin Yi's eyes also became colder.
"The more this happens, the more the demon tribe will deserve to die!"
They use humans at will to cultivate half-demon for them.
Every newly born demon race is cultivated from the flesh and blood of the human race.
As far as demons and humans are concerned, their existence itself is the incarnation of sin.
"It's okay if you didn't arrive before. Now that you've arrived, you have to leave something behind."
Qin Yi raised his head and looked at the area 900 feet above the Gu Immortal Mountain, and raised his eyebrows involuntarily.
"Hey, the Gu Immortal clan's guardian is not here?"
Where did he go?
Qin Yi turned back and glanced in the direction of Zhongyuan.
"You're not going to watch this battle, are you?"
If this is the case...
"It makes things easier for me."
Qin Yi raised his head and glanced at the position about Qianzhang of Gu Immortal Mountain.
There is a barrier there that is thicker than the secret realm.
Unless you pay special attention, even if you make some small moves, the monster above will not notice it.
"Sooner or later I will go to the Qingling Land a thousand feet above to settle the accounts with you. Now, I will collect a wave of interest."
…
Cai Yuan took advantage of the darkness to fly back to the previously agreed place and met Qing Long who had been waiting for a long time.
"How about it?"
When Qinglong saw Cai Yuan, he couldn't wait to ask Cai Yuan before he could speak.
Cai Yuan's face was full of smiles, and just as she was about to answer, Qing Long suddenly let out a light sigh.
"Your breath has changed. Is this... spiritual root? You succeeded? Is it really because of the Feng Shui formation in the Central Plains?"
Qinglong got the answer he wanted without Cai Yuan opening his mouth, and paced on the spot excitedly: "Sure enough, the Immortal Saint's actions are of the same origin. The previous Feng Shui formation was not only arranged to protect the Central Plains, but also
A deeper reason."
Qinglong admired Immortal Saint for his foresight and foresight.
However, when he thought of their situation, he couldn't help but said in frustration: "However, if this happens, those of us who have left the Central Plains will be in trouble if we want to give birth to spiritual roots."
You also need to make a special trip to the Central Plains.
The Central Plains naturally distrusts these human races in the barbarian lands.
Especially those who carry lanterns. Among the people of the Central Plains, they have long been known as tomb robbers.
Even the imperial court was very wary of them because of an unruly lantern-carrying man who assassinated the Holy Emperor and caused chaos in the Central Plains, and never gave up on arresting them from the beginning to the end.
Strictly speaking, the Lantern Man and the Central Plains are still in a semi-hostile state.
The relationship is very tense.
Cai Yuan rolled her eyes at Qing Long.
"Why are you worrying so much here? It's not your turn to take care of this matter. Qilin will be responsible for it, so just do your own thing."
Cai Yuan has no expectations for Qing Long's political acumen.
"Moreover, when I went to deliver the letter this time, Qin Dong, the direct brother of the Holy Emperor, had a good attitude towards me. He didn't shout or kill me when he saw me. Obviously, the Holy Emperor had no rumors about us lantern holders.
I am so disgusted."
At this moment, an old man wearing a stone mask slowly rose up from the ground and continued Cai Yuan's words.
"With the height and knowledge of the Holy Emperor, it is impossible not to know the role that we Lantern-bearers have played in the Central Plains and the contributions we have made in the past dynasties. After thousands of years, just such a bastard who sneaked into the Central Plains has emerged, and we Lantern-bearers have already become very important.
alright."
"Qilin!"
Qinglong immediately flashed in front of Qilin, bowed respectfully, and asked anxiously: "Qilin, so we can return to the Central Plains?"
Qinglong has an ardent expectation to return to the Central Plains.
Especially after learning that such a great being as the Holy Emperor emerged from the Central Plains.
Qilin raised his head and glanced at Qinglong, shook his head and said: "At this time, the time has not come yet, so just wait."
After Cai Yuan stepped forward and saluted, she asked equally curiously: "The timing? What timing?"
Qilin shook his head and said: "Dragon Saint left a legacy. If the time comes, the lantern holder will not be allowed to return to the Central Plains. As for what time it is, we will naturally know it when the time comes."
Qinglong and Caiyuan looked at each other, confused.
However, with their trust in Qilin and their respect for Dragon Saint, they did not ask any further questions. They both bowed and agreed to the arrangement without further questioning.
However, Qinglong still asked: "Since Caiyuan has confirmed that the Taoist scriptures need to be in the Central Plains and within the Fengshui array in order to resonate and derive spiritual roots, do we want to..."
Since it is impossible to enter the Central Plains on a large scale, then it should be possible for just the three of them.
Qilin muttered: "Stop a minute, Cai Yuan, please tell me first, what is the difference between spiritual roots and spiritual bones?"
Caiyuan tilted her head, nodding her nose with her finger, and after thinking for a moment, she said: "The feeling of the spirit bone to me is that of a part of the body. If I feel it carefully, I can still feel it, but the spirit root doesn't seem to be the same.
It's not part of my body, so it's hard to feel it. I need to use the power of the Dharma to barely feel it... However, the spiritual root does exist."
Cai Yuan gently pressed her belly button with her right hand.
"My body is absorbing the aura of heaven and earth all the time. It enters the body through here and directly enters the lower Dantian. In this process, other auras are automatically eliminated, leaving only the aura of wind attribute, which is automatically processed into me.
Wind-attributed spiritual power that can be controlled."
While Cai Yuan carefully sensed the difference between the two, she replied: "This spiritual power has the same attributes as the real power I cultivated before, but it is also fundamentally different. Although there is no conflict yet, if the spiritual power is
As the power increases and reaches a certain scale, I can’t guarantee it.”
After hearing this, Qilin showed no signs of surprise, as if everything was as expected.
He stroked the long beard under his chin, and while thinking, he slowly said: "Just as I thought, the spiritual bones have turned into spiritual roots, and the absorbed spiritual energy has naturally changed accordingly. However, I didn't expect that the spiritual roots actually changed."
The gap between it and the spiritual bone is so big that it was processed in one step."
Qilin shook his head slightly and sighed: "This method is worthy of being a saint."
This was the most troublesome situation he had ever expected.
Very tricky.
It takes a limited time to graft the Dragon Saint inheritance onto the path of Immortal Martial Arts.
However, he is the backbone of the Nanman Lantern Men, and no matter how urgent the situation is, he cannot panic.
Especially when facing Qinglong and Cai Yuan.
Qilin's expression was determined, and while stroking his long beard, he said with a smile: "Fortunately, we have done it twice before with Alchemy Sage and Wen Sage. We have rich experience and the situation is still under control.
"
Although those experiences have some effect, they are all based on spiritual bones. The way of immortal martial arts directly abandons spiritual bones and transforms them into spiritual roots, which greatly discounts these experiences.
It was already difficult enough even if it was built on spiritual bones, but now that the position has been changed, the difficulty has skyrocketed.
However, Qilin could only do everything in its power and could only find a way to solve Cai Yuan's problem as soon as possible.
Otherwise, the heart of the lantern holder will be scattered.
Qilin thought of something and asked: "By the way, Cai Yuan, have you got the complete version of "Hunyuan Jue"?"
Cai Yuan lowered her head and said with shame: "The part that reaches the Golden Core realm has been collected, but the part above Nascent Soul has not been collected yet."
For masters like them at the Dharma Realm, the exercises at the Golden Core Realm are of little use. What they value most are the exercises at the Nascent Soul Realm and Yuanshen Realm.
Qilin shook his head regretfully and said, "It would be great if I could get the "Hunyuan Jue"."
Cai Yuan thought about the highest-ranking person in the Central Plains whom she had come into contact with before, the Holy Emperor's direct brother and the commander of the Zhennan Army, Qin Dong, and her heart moved.
Maybe...
Don't be in a hurry, wait for a while, wait until this war is over, and then look at the situation.
Depending on the outcome of the war, her choices will naturally be different.
"How about we contact the Immortal Saint directly..." Seeing that this matter was about to pause again, Qinglong couldn't help but said anxiously.
However, before he finished speaking, Qilin interrupted him directly and said sternly: "No."
Qinglong was unconvinced and wanted to say something, but when he saw Qilin's stern eyes, he finally didn't say anything and lowered his head with a guilty conscience.
Qilin stared at Qinglong and warned: "Qinglong, you must not enter even half a step into the Central Plains, let alone contact any high-level officials in the Central Plains, especially the Immortal Saint. Do you understand?"
Qinglong raised his head, opened his mouth, and wanted to refute, but in the end, under Qilin's stern eyes, he did not say anything, but reluctantly nodded twice dryly like a puppet.
Qilin was still worried, so he turned around and told Cai Yuan: "You stare at Qinglong, even if you let him be stupid."
Cai Yuan was like a child who got Shang Fang's sword. She raised her eyebrows at Qinglong proudly and assured Qilin: "Don't worry, Grandpa Qilin, I will definitely see Brother Qinglong and won't let him mess around.
"
Qinglong glared at Caiyuan angrily, and Caiyuan immediately stared back.
The two stared at each other, neither of them giving way.
In the end, Qinglong chose to give in and lowered his head, like a deflated ball, and his whole body became nervous.
The colorful kite raised its head like a victorious rooster.
Qilin looked at the childish behavior of the two and shook his head helplessly. He was about to say something to them when he suddenly sensed something and turned his head to look in the direction of the river.
