He Ping was extremely ruthless. He wanted to refine the Profound Ice Ancestor. Next, he used the Secret Method of the Devil Palace. Instantly, the sixteen demon banners blazed with black light and demonic flames, spewing out an endless amount of black threads. They hung in the air, layer upon layer, covering the ice crystal ball protecting the Profound Ice Ancestor and forming a huge black cocoon.
On the jet-black throne, he Hand Seals with his hands, three fingers pressed together at the tip, the middle finger upright, and the ring finger bent. At the same time, he chanted a secret mantra in his heart. "Om Hum Hum Chodari Svaha Luling Chi!"
The incantation was chanted extremely quickly, almost as a single note. In an instant, He Ping's inner fire ignited, and flames shot out from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
With a loud boom, blazing flames shot out like a straight line, landing instantly on the large black cocoon. He Ping released a ball of fire nurtured by his own life essence, a ball of light gold in color, which landed on the cocoon.
The flames flowed from the black cocoon, falling below the large cocoon and gradually transforming into a golden lotus flower. The black cocoon then floated on the golden lotus flower, drifting up and down.
For the next few days, he chanted divine incantations at the hours of Mao (5-7 AM) and You (5-7 PM) every day, using the Secret Method of the Sanyuan Devil Palace to refine and burn the Dark Ice Old Demon Dark Ice Old Demon was trapped in the black cocoon, screaming in agony. In just two days, its physical body was refined, leaving only a wisp of its soul, which was still struggling desperately.
Zangling, Xie Shidi, and Elder Sangling were also secretly lamenting their predicament. He Ping did not rush to refine the three of them, but instead formed the Black Cloud Fire Baleful Qi and used the Five Yin Profound Baleful Earthly Ultimate Demon Flame to wear them down day and night.
These three people survived thanks to the few Law Artifact they had left, or the spiritual light emitted by their Law Power. However, they were tormented by the increasingly intense Black Cloud Fire Baleful Qi day and night, and their suffering was unbearable. It was only a matter of time before they ran out of energy.
"Oh dear! I don't know what kind of strange technique this scoundrel is practicing. The forty-nine days are almost up, and he hasn't suffered any damage. On the contrary, his cultivation is becoming more and more profound. If this continues, in the end, after forty-nine days, not only will he not be able to cultivate a great technique, but I will definitely be refined to death!"
Granny Sangling's cultivation was the most profound among the four. Her " Azure Ancestor Profound Qi " was not a righteous Daoist technique, but it was still a unique skill of her sect. It had some connection with the Wanqing Sect, but it was far inferior to the righteous Daoist technique of the Wanqing Sect, which was known as the " Root of Heaven and Earth " that said "The Valley Spirit never dies, and the Mysterious Female never perishes".
The " Root of Heaven and Earth " is the highest-ranking orthodox method for entering the Dao. Even disciples within the Wanqing Sect must undergo numerous trials before being taught this orthodox method. Ordinary disciples within the sect can only learn Outer Dao methods.
Among these Outer Dao methods, there are also several Cultivation Method derived from the " Root of Heaven and Earth." Even though they cannot compare to Method Formula " Root of Heaven and Earth," which transcends the laws of materiality and enters a realm of unfathomable mystery and profound transformation, they still possess some extraordinary aspects.
The " Azure Ancestor Profound Qi " has no other advantages, except that it is superior in terms of profound power, far surpassing ordinary Outer Dao methods. It is thanks to this that she was able to survive until now, but Granny Sangling dared not think too much about how to escape afterward.
"Could it be that the only way is to forcefully enter the Dao and transform into a fallen beast to fight desperately? But the outside is full of Black Cloud Fire Baleful Qi, there's nowhere to fight. Even a fallen beast, enveloped by such dense Black Cloud Fire Baleful Qi, can't fly very far before being refined to death..."
Just as Granny Sangling hesitated, a voice as faint as a mosquito's buzz suddenly rang in her ears.
" Granny Sangling, Granny Sangling, how are you doing now?"
The voice seemed to come from the Zangling.
"I'm not dead yet?"
Granny Sangling was also surprised. She never expected that Zangling to her and make contact. You see, the three of them were sealed in a large area of Black Cloud Fire Baleful Qi, and their voices could not be transmitted. Their divine souls could not move. The three of them were trapped separately, so they were isolated and had no connection with each other.
" Zangling, what method did you use to escape with your spiritual power? To waste your spiritual energy in this godforsaken place is undoubtedly a suicide plan..."
"To be honest, I am actually a member of the Mud Sect. I have mastered a Secret Method of the sect and can barely operate it, which is why I was able to contact you and Island Master Xie."
Zangling used his spiritual thoughts to vibrate the air and simulate sound.
"Shh, keep your voice down... Don't speak from now on. Connect with this wisp of my thought using your divided soul. If you speak too loudly, that person might hear you. Only by communicating with your soul can you avoid being detected..."
"Good!"
Granny Sangling hesitated slightly, then released a wisp of her mental energy, which intertwined with a fleeting thought of Zangling.
Among cultivators, unless they have a particularly close relationship or use special Cultivation Method, they generally do not communicate with others through thoughts. This method can transmit information more quickly, but it also has a danger: this behavior makes it easy for hostile people to find an opportunity to take advantage of the time when thoughts are being communicated separately to launch a sneak attack.
A shrewd cultivator would never agree to such a request, but Zangling Granny Sangling couldn't help but want to hear what Venerable Zangling, who came from the Mud Sect, had in mind to escape.
The Mud Sect is the leader of the Nine Evils of Longevity, and it has many mysterious and dark methods. Granny Sangling didn't have many options, and could only hope that Zangling had some better methods hidden away.
" Granny Sangling, we are in an extremely dangerous situation right now. On the other hand, we can't necessarily count on our disciples outside either," Zangling sighed slightly. "All the useless cultivators under my command have been placed under restrictions by me. Those who stayed behind in the nearby sea area have all been killed. This person is extremely ruthless and will not leave any survivors. Naturally, no one will be able to go back and report the news."
"I could have guessed that too."
Granny Sangling wasn't as ruthless as Zangling, but the fact that her elder brother, Yuanmu, hadn't received the news and rushed over after so long proved that Mulberry Island hadn't received any intelligence yet.
"Fortunately, our Mud Sect has a special method of communication."
Zangling a sinister smile.
"Those corrupt cultivators are all good-for-nothings, living a life of debauchery and utterly devoid of ambition. Fortunately, their souls and bodies still have some use... I've placed a powerful restriction on them, capable of draining the lives of these three hundred corrupt cultivators to communicate with a Lotus Seat Master of my Mud Sect. This Secret Method can be activated no matter how far apart we are, and can even summon the Lotus Seat Master's power in an instant, rescuing the three of us from our predicament!"
"Three people?"
"That's right, Island Master Xie has agreed. He's willing to lend me a hand. I'm not quite up to the task on my own. If the three of us work together, we can get help from the Hundred-Armed Child, one of the three great Lotus Seat Master of our sect. This master is the most powerful among the many Lotus Seat Master of the Mud Sect ..."
"You mean the Hundred-Armed Demon Child?"
Granny Sangling was stunned and lost in thought. She had heard of this powerful figure. The Lotus Seat Master of the Mud Sect were all experts who had entered the Dao, but the levels of entering the Dao were also divided into three, five, and nine grades. Among them, one of the three most powerful experts was Xiao Wubei, who was known as the " Hundred-Armed Demon Child ". His reputation was extremely evil, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was extremely vicious!
"It is this elder. If we can get him to help break this man's restrictions, rescuing us won't be difficult at all!"
Zangling chuckled coldly a few times.
"Our Mud Sect has been secretly investigating the whereabouts of the Devil Palace's inheritance. Master Xiao knows this, how could he let this person go? In the end, this little thief won't live long either, he won't escape Master's unparalleled divine Divine Ability!"
"But how can I trust you?"
Granny Sangling a cold laugh, "You asked me to summon the Hundred-Armed Demon Child for you, but I don't know what kind of Evil Method you're going to use. If I'm not careful and fall for your trick, wouldn't that be no different from committing suicide? If this method only benefits you, then I'm willing to die here with you and Island Master Xie."
"If Granny Sangling is worried about this, I can swear a solemn oath to guarantee that the method I use will not harm your life. As for Elder Xiao, you don't need to worry. The Wanqing Sect and my Mud Sect have a good relationship, and your Mulberry Wood Palace has a close relationship with a senior of the Wanqing Sect. Elder Xiao will not refuse to do so."
Zangling first made a solemn oath, then continued, "My method is very simple. Granny Sangling, you'll know once you try it. There's no way there could be any ulterior motive. Next, you just need to recite a spell with me."
"Incantation?"
"That's right."
Zangling chuckled twice.
"This Secret Method emphasizes that sincerity brings results and can resonate with all directions. As long as Granny Sangling recites the mantra 'Fire Buddha Cultivates Oneness, Mind Samoo' with me a thousand times, she will be able to generate all sorts of extraordinary and miraculous effects!"
