After half a cup of tea.

Chen Dengming looked at the corpses of the Northern Spirit Sect cultivators lying all over the ground, then frowned and stared at the devout and fearless Golden Core soul in front of him, feeling strange.

This Golden Core cultivator from the Northern Spirit Sect, despite being terrified of the threat of annihilation, becomes incredibly devout whenever the Northern Yin Holy Mother mentioned, refusing to divulge any information related to her.

"The Northern Yin Holy Mother's methods of controlling people's hearts are truly masterful. As expected of a Holy Mother, it's one thing for ordinary sect disciples to be so devoted, but even Golden Core Late Stage cultivators are so loyal that they're not afraid of being annihilated, body and soul."

Chen Dengming shook his head inwardly, somewhat disappointed.

This was, in fact, his third time dealing with Golden Core Cultivator from the Northern Spirit Sect.

The first time was by the Daoist Dao Child the Northern Spirit Sect, and the second time was by She Xieneng, Golden Core Mid Stage cultivator from the Northern Spirit Sect who was possessed by the Northern Yin Holy Mother using supernatural Technique Method.

The second time, he almost suffered a great loss at the hands of the Northern Yin Holy Mother.

At this moment, the Ghost Old Man Zhu Xun had already devoured the souls of several other cultivators. His enormous Ghost Body turned around, glanced at Chen Dengming, then looked at the Golden Core soul, grinned, made a 'hiss' sound, opened his big mouth, pointed, and uttered a single word.

"Give me some!"

"No, no, please don't!" Even though his Golden Core soul had seen many storms before, it was now Soul Body with fear, pleading with Chen Dengming, "Senior, I've said what I should say, and I... I can't say what I shouldn't say!"

Chen Dengming nodded slightly, "It's alright, I said it's alright. I completely understand someone like you, fellow Daoist. What I admire most is someone as loyal as you."

A faint smile of relief appeared on the face of the Golden Core Divine Soul.

"Unfortunately, those who walk different paths cannot make plans together!"

With his hands behind his back, Chen Dengming unleashed a burst of Divine Sense accompanied by Dao power. His white hair at his temples moved without wind, and his eyes flashed like hidden lightning, suddenly shooting out two sharp, soul-stirring beams of Silver Light.

Startling Eye Spirit Refining Art!

A powerful Divine Sense, accompanied by Dao power, instantly invaded the depths of the Golden Core soul's mind, attempting to probe the secrets hidden within it through mind reading.

Before becoming Nascent Soul cultivator, even though he possessed the Dao lineage of the Human Immortal, it would be difficult for him to read minds of Golden Core Late Stage cultivators, as the difference in their Divine Sense was not that great.

After becoming Nascent Soul, one's essence, Essence, Qi, and Spirit, and spirit undergo a tremendous leap forward. Not only does the Physical Body become the Nascent Soul True Body and the Core Power transform into the true energy of Nascent Soul, but even the Divine Sense transforms into the true consciousness of Nascent Soul, resulting in a qualitative change.

At this moment, after Chen Dengming's Nascent Soul True Consciousness invaded the other party's mind, the Golden Core Divine Soul was already curled up on the ground in pain.

Within the Soul Body, the Three Souls Seven Souls begin to manifest, with the Three Souls displaying a particularly bright light, corresponding to the three lights and the Heavenly Gang.

The Three Souls Tai Guang that controlled the memories were in extreme pain, and a figure formed by the convergence of Silver Light gradually appeared on their faces, which was none other than the power that Chen Dengming had invaded.

Chen Dengming's Dao power and Divine Sense converged into a human form, lingering and delving deep into the other party's Tai Guang soul.

Tai Guang is the primordial consciousness that exists in all things, existing between energy and consciousness; it is the source of life consciousness.

Here, he seemed to see layers upon layers of light, like countless cliffs and ravines.

These are all memories deeply hidden in the heart of this Golden Core Cultivator, like a person's life, becoming a history book. The longer the lifespan and the more experiences one has, the thicker and more substantial this book becomes.

At this moment, Chen Dengming intruded, using the Human Immortal Way Power to probe the mind, reading whichever page he turned to.

He quickly searched for memories related to Our Northern Yin Holy Mother.

The overlapping light layers are flipped open.

Suddenly, among the many scenes, the figure of a woman standing on a lotus platform, emitting a faint light, appeared.

The moment the woman appeared, there was a soft, almost Incense and Faith, prayer-like sound, filled with a special aura of holiness that made people want to get close to her and worship her.

Even the power that Chen Dengming had invaded felt a special kind of infectiousness, which could shake his Dao power and seemed to be trying to infect him back along his power.

"The power of Incense and Faith?"

No. It seems plausible but is actually not. This Northern Yin Holy Mother has actually implanted her own spiritual power deep within this person's soul?

Chen Dengming was startled; this was the first time he had encountered an opponent who could manipulate mental power so skillfully.

However, when he fought with Bei Ling Dao Child, it seemed that Bei Ling Dao Child's mind had not been implanted with spiritual power by the Northern Yin Holy Mother.

Could it be because the Northern Spirit Dao Child is of high status and position, being the Dao Child successor to the Daoist lineage?

The fleeting thought seemed to reveal a flaw in his emotional state, giving the other party an opportunity to exploit it.

Instantly, the strange power that infected the mind rapidly penetrated deeper, invading along the loopholes.

However, this was a flaw that Chen Dengming deliberately revealed, with the aim of luring the enemy out of their hole.

The instant this strange force invaded, Chen Dengming's Divine Sense and Dao power instantly transformed into a devouring vortex, engulfing the strange force.

This is clearly the 'Membrane Technique' from the "Hundred Ghosts Banquet Travel".

Boom!--

In the instant this Mental Power was devoured, numerous spiritual forces hidden within the layers of light instantly emerged from the figures of the Northern Yin Holy Mother.

Like rays of spiritual light, they gradually converged into a tall, imposing female figure exuding a powerful and oppressive aura. So tall that one could only look up at her, holding one's breath in awe of her immense presence.

"Mind projection?"

Chen Dengming's expression turned solemn as he immediately sensed an immense and unparalleled Mental Power, born from the Soul Power of the Golden Core Divine Soul. It was as if a still, deep pool had instantly transformed into a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time. At first glance, it seemed still, but it concealed an astonishing destructive power.

But then, the tall woman, whose spiritual light had gathered deep within the Golden Core Divine Soul, slowly turned around. Her appearance was even more masculine than a man's, with large, bright, and sharp eyes, a nose like a hanging gall bladder, and thin, angular lips tightly closed. A terrifying aura of majesty swept over them, leaving no trace of friendliness, only a pressure that terrified the soul.

"Longevity Sect Leader! I never expected we'd meet again in this way! I never imagined you'd already broken through to the Nascent Soul."

The Northern Yin Holy Mother revealed a strange look in her eyes. Her sharp, blade-like eyes were fixed on the vortex formed by Chen Dengming's mental power. The light emanating from her eyes seemed to pierce through the vortex and invade the depths of his soul.

Of all the enemies Chen Dengming had ever encountered in his life, none had ever displayed such strong mental power, making him feel threatened at this moment.

He has not yet uttered a word, avoiding revealing any unnecessary clues.

The Northern Yin Holy Mother, projected from the mind, seemed to already know his purpose through the information in the memories of his Golden Core soul, and smiled calmly.

Do you want to know about me? Do you want to know about the Three Saints Palace?

That's right, the Three Saints Palace has issued a kill order against you. However, if you can abandon the darkness and join our camp, I can guarantee that all past grievances will be forgiven.

I see that you are also skilled in mental arts. In the future, I can marry you and we can have in-depth exchanges. I can even teach you the Northern Spirit Mind Techniques that I obtained from the Northern Spirit Sea Abyss."

"Threat and bribery are the lowest level of tricks to lure people into revealing their weaknesses. You think you can lure me in? I'll turn the tables on you right now."

Chen Dengming remained unmoved, but then a thought struck him. He beckoned to the Ghost Old Man Zhu Xun gestured with his big eyes.

"Bang!"

The Ghost Old Man, Zhu Xun. He grinned wickedly, flipped his ghostly claw, and took out a large eyeball that could amplify a person's emotions.

Chen Dengming took it and activated it. His large eyes immediately released a strange light that could drive people crazy. In his mind, he responded to the Northern Yin Holy Mother, "You look more manly than a man, and you must be over a thousand years old."

With looks like that, how dare she, an old cow trying to eat young grass, dream of marrying me?

The smile on the face of the Northern Yin Holy Mother was in a mental standoff, became slightly unnatural, but she clearly realized that this was a mental trap and was trying to restrain herself and regain her State of Mind.

"You old hag, you dare to say that?"

Chen Dengming's next words, accompanied by the strange emotional power of his large eyes, instantly ignited the suppressed anger within her, like oil being poured onto a raging fire.

"You bastard!"

The Northern Yin Holy Mother could no longer tolerate it. All the figures that appeared in her memory were filled with anger. However, as soon as this anger was born, she immediately realized that something was wrong.

Almost simultaneously, Chen Dengming's vortex-like Dao power, accompanied by his Divine Sense like a raging sea, seized the moment when the Holy Mother of the Northern Yin Holy Mother in a state of mental turmoil and fiercely attacked her mind.

This force was like a heavy hammer striking a drum, blow after blow, relentlessly striking the depths of the Northern Yin Holy Mother's heart.

The Northern Yin Holy Mother let out a muffled groan, her figure instantly fading, her heart filled with trepidation.

All the figures that appeared in the memories of the Golden Core's divine soul faded into darkness.

This indicates that the implanted spiritual power is rapidly declining.

She suddenly let out a furious roar, and all the figures collapsed simultaneously, bursting forth with the light of their souls, completely converging into an incomparably powerful mass, slowly spreading out as if forming a vast and heavy land, with its center sinking inward to form a deep abyss.

In the very center of the abyss, there was a pool of liquid, and a pure, deep blue flower in full bloom, a sight of breathtaking beauty.

Instantly, all the mental power that Chen Dengming had unleashed was drawn into the abyss, drawn towards that pale blue flower.

Even the silver Dao power could not escape this powerful attraction, and was impacted and scattered by the waves of yellow energy surging from the abyss.

This was clearly the power unleashed by the combination of the Northern Spirit Heart Dao Secret Technique and the Earth Immortal Dao Power.

It was as if a thick, deep abyss of earth had been constructed, to bury everything, even the crack in the soul that Chen Dengming had just opened, to merge with the earth and return to nature, stitching it together seamlessly.

"Bound Earth Spirit? Heart of the Ocean?"

Having witnessed all of this, Chen Dengming couldn't help but admire the power of the Northern Yin Holy Mother.

The opponent actually combined the Earthly Immortal Orthodox Lineage, seemingly using the ancient Northern Spirit Sea Abyss combined with the Heart of the Ocean, a rare treasure, to create a binding spirit that forms a strange phenomenon of an abyss burying all living beings. Its spiritual power is so strong that it buries all living beings.

This is almost as powerful as the Incense Clone he created by combining the Immortal Celestial Dao Power with the Heart of the Ocean, but it is an offensive Divine Ability with even greater destructive power.

At this moment, his Divine Sense, along with the power of the Dao, was drawn into it, as if he were in the eye of a sandstorm, with all the pressure converging and pulling him into the whirlpool of the rapids.

The vortex of Earth Immortal Path power spun rapidly, its sharp edges colliding and quickly eroding his strength, trying to pull him into the Heart of the Ocean of the Ocean below and bury him, making him fertilizer for his spiritual power.

"Heaven and earth are one Taiji, and the human body is one Taiji. Taiji is originally one, but it becomes large and small because of the small, and it becomes inside and outside because of intention. If one can get rid of this intention..."

The human body has inexhaustible potential, the human heart is limitless, and human power is inexhaustible.

In this moment of crisis, the Mnemonic of the Ancient Human Immortal Physique suddenly flashed through Chen Dengming's mind.

"Ancient immortals walked upon the earth, known as terrestrial immortals, awe-inspiring all directions, and creating heaven and earth!"

He remained calm and composed, a resounding voice echoing in his mind like a great bell, as he meditated on the Ancient Immortal creating the world in the distant past, channeling even more immense power into his mind.

In an instant, the combined Divine Sense of the trapped Human Immortal Way Power surged, rapidly expanding and transforming in the mind's eye into a giant enveloped in Silver Light. In that instant, it was as large as a mountain, its head protruding into the abyss, the breath it exhaled from its mouth and nose like clouds, and its eyes shining like stars.

"What!?"

The Northern Yin Holy Mother was suddenly shaken. Her face emerged from the Heart of the Heart of the Ocean within the abyss. Despite her best efforts to restrain herself, she could not suppress the panic that arose within her the moment she saw the giant, and her heart broke.

Boom boom boom--

The vortexes of energy formed by the Earth Immortal Path crashed into the massive giant's body, only to crumble like ants trying to shake a tree.

Chen Dengming is unafraid to compete in the realm of the mind and the power of the spirit.

Chen Dengming is not afraid to compete in creating extraordinary phenomena born from spiritual realms.

The Ancient Immortal created heaven and earth, sweeping away all enemies in the world!

"Build the land!!"

Just then, the giant, as majestic as a mountain, raised its head and roared, the sound wave resounding through the sky like a thunderclap that shook the very heavens, shattering the surrounding abyss and the earth's energy.

"This is... that Ancient Immortal who created the world?"

The Northern Yin Holy Mother was greatly shaken. In a daze, she seemed to recognize this terrifying behemoth, a terrifying giant who was the "enemy of heaven and earth" in ancient times.

Boom!!

Just then, a powerful foot, accompanied by thick air currents and Silver Light, stomped onto the ground.

The moment it fell, the massive amounts of yellow earth energy that had rushed to block it collapsed and exploded.

With a deafening roar, the earth shook, and the ground beneath the abyss shattered into pieces.

The seawater surged upwards, and countless fragments of mud shot out like arrows in all directions.

The Heart of the Ocean, blooming like a deep blue flower, instantly crumbled under the stomping of that enormous foot.

"Ah!"

The Northern Yin Holy Mother let out a scream, and all her spiritual power collapsed at once, causing the abyssal visions she had created to dissipate.

A single wisp of Earth Immortal Path energy, emitting a yellow glow, suddenly emerged from the soul of the Golden Core Divine Soul.

Chen Dengming's eyes revealed a strange look, and the Silver Light in his eyes subsided, replaced by a blue light.

Heavenly Eye!

A blue light appeared in his eyes, which rotated slightly, locking onto a single yellow light Earth Immortal Path.

Only after confirming there was no danger did I reach out and grab it.

Instantly, a pressure weighing over ten thousand jin (approximately 50,000 kg) came from his palm.

Chen Dengming's palm suddenly sank.

He immediately exerted force in his arms, and his Nascent Soul energy slightly emerged, allowing him to support the yellow object.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a grain of sand, emanating a faint Earth Immortal Dao Power.

"An item related to the Earthly Immortal Orthodox Lineage... could this be a Dao artifact similar to the [Longevity Jade Seal]?"

Chen Dengming seemed to be thinking about something, then shook his head, feeling that it probably wasn't a Dao artifact, since it was too small and too easy to capture.

This should be a medium used by the Northern Yin Holy Mother to implant mental power into the minds of Golden Core Late Stage cultivators, thereby controlling them.

He glanced at the Golden Core Divine Soul, which was completely dazed and seemed to have gone mad. Seeing that its Three Souls and Seven Souls were showing signs of dissipation, he immediately looked at the Ghost Old Man Zhu Xun, who had been eyeing it for a long time, and waved his hand.

"Roar!--"

The Ghost Old Man, Zhu Xun, Zhu Xun a joyful growl and pounced on him.

Chen Dengming solemnly put away the 'sand', and slightly subsided the aura rising from his body. Only then did he realize that he actually had the power to confront the Northern Yin Holy Mother on a spiritual level.

"Old Chen?"

At that moment, Qiao Zhaoxian's slightly questioning voice came from the side.

Chen Dengming turned his head and saw that Qiao Zhaoxian, Gan Qinghong and other cultivators had been startled by his aura and surrounded him, but they were all waiting warily dozens of feet away before daring to disturb him.

Chen Dengming shook his head, pointed to the golden core that Zhu Xun had swallowed back into his stomach, and said, "It's nothing. This person has the spiritual power implanted by the Northern Yin Holy Mother deep in his heart. I just exchanged blows with the Northern Yin Holy Mother from a distance."

Qiao Zhaoxian and the others were immediately astonished, exchanging bewildered glances.

"You fought against the Northern Yin Holy Mother?" Qiao Zhaoxian swallowed hard, his eyes widening.

Before hearing about Chen Dengming's feat of annihilating the Nascent Soul the Three Saints Palace, he might have scoffed, just like before, thinking that Old Chen was bragging.

But now, he no longer thinks Old Chen is bragging; instead, he feels like a clown, he said with a strained laugh.

"Who won?"

Chen Dengming couldn't bear to dampen Old Qiao's competitive spirit, so he shook his head and smiled, "Let her win."

Hearing this Qiao Zhaoxian a sigh of relief, a reassuring smile spreading across his face as he walked over and gave her a thumbs up. "It's alright, Old Chen, you're still amazing. After all, you've only just broken through to the Nascent Soul. In a few years, you'll definitely make this Holy Mother beg for mercy."

Chen Dengming nodded and smiled, playing with the large eyeball in his hand. His gaze fell on the distant mountain peaks shrouded in light mist, pondering whether the defeat of the Northern Yin Holy Mother this time would hasten the Three Saints Palace's revenge against him and hasten his tribulation.

Fortunately, his defeat of the Northern Yin Holy Mother was not entirely without reward.

At least some important information about the Three Saints Palace was obtained from the other party's fleeting psychological vulnerability.

Among them was the message that the Three Saints Palace had issued a kill order against him.

"The Three Saints Palace, on the surface, sent the Northern Yin Holy Mother to assassinate me, intending to have her replace that old Northern Yin Holy Mother Nascent Soul stage."

Chen Dengming pondered for a moment, "In reality, the Three Saints Palace has another plan, but that plan is only a guess based on the information the Northern Yin Holy Mother has gathered. She doesn't know the specifics."

At the same time.

Within the Three Saints Palace lush and Spiritual Qi Law Sage Palace, a grand mountainside Dao Field, a chilling snort suddenly echoed.

The Northern Yin Holy Mother, taller than any man, emerged from a grand hall. Her face, more masculine than any man's, was now as cold as ice, and her bright eyes were filled with sharpness. The Nascent Soul spirit power emanating from her was awe-inspiring.

Her gaze turned Dongfang, her heart burning with rage, her eyes filled with fury and apprehension.

No one had ever made her suffer such a great loss in a battle of wits.

But this time it happened.

Not only did she lose a key figure in the Golden Core Late Stage realm of the Northern Spirit Sect, but most deserving of death was the loss of the Earth Spirit Seed she had planted many years ago.

The Earth Spirit Seed was the key to her ultimate breakthrough in cultivating the <Northern Spirit Heart Path Secret Technique>.

She is about to break through to Nascent Soul Perfection Spirit Transformation stage and is poised to become a Deity.

Now that this seed is lost, her breakthrough in cultivation will be affected. This is an obstacle to her path to enlightenment, like killing one's parents, an irreconcilable enmity.

"He inherited the Human Immortal Orthodox Lineage Human Immortal Way and also came into contact with the secret teachings of the Ancient Immortal... No wonder his strength has improved so quickly."

The Northern Yin Holy Mother's eyes flashed with a chilling light, and with a thought, she looked towards the main hall of the Three Saints Palace not far away.

The Longevity Sect Leader not only possesses the Immortal Celestial Lineage, but also the Human Immortal Orthodox Lineage.

If this important information were revealed, the three sages would surely be very interested.
