Strictly speaking, spirits should be considered deities, because they are born from acquired spiritual energy and, like gods, originate from the natural world.
As for the fairies formed after the Fusion substances, they are difficult to distinguish.
Because the Main God categorize races according to the type of energy they cultivate: the Immortal Race and Demon Race cultivate the power of the Yang Five Elements and Yin Five Elements respectively, the Spirit Race cultivate pure energy, the Devil Race cultivate impure energy, and humans can cultivate any attribute.
Gods are divided into three categories: those who were conceived in the Hundun at the beginning of time, each one unique; those who transformed themselves into their own kind; and those who were born from acquired spiritual energy.
Finally, there are the gods who arise from the beliefs of humans or other intelligent beings.
Races with divine bloodlines belong to the gods.
However, race is just a broad category; to gain respect, one must have the strength to back it up.
The flower fairy is very weak; its fighting power is almost equal to that of a mouse.
The fact that such a small creature has survived this long suggests that there are no powerful or aggressive creatures in this forest.
Finding some miraculous medicines shouldn't be a problem.
As a flower fairy, Powder is special; she can sense the fluctuations and gathering points of spiritual energy within a radius of 500 meters, similar to the treasure-hunting rats in some novels.
Go ahead, I'll wait for you here.
Xu Long wasn't worried about the Powder not returning. On one hand, this kind of spirit was powerless against pure spiritual energy; on the other hand, he had a way to retrieve the Powder.
"We swear to complete this mission, even at the cost of our lives!"
The Powder saluted, then rode the Tree Tiger with great pride and began its search.
"Human, that's not very kind of you."
Not long after the Powder left, a bald old man with a blade of grass growing from his head suddenly appeared.
He was only fifteen centimeters tall, and his white beard reached down to his knees, completely covering his front, just like his clothes.
This is the Immortal Muluo, a Wood-type Spirit-Wielding Element.
"Yeah?"
Xu Long smiled, then pried off another small piece from the Mid-Grade Spirit Stone and flicked it toward Immortal Muluo.
"Young man, you're quite perceptive!"
Immortal Muluo grabbed the Spirit Stone fragments in his hand, his face full of admiration.
However, he was getting on in years, and perhaps feeling a bit embarrassed to accept something for nothing, he reached into his beard and started picking at it.
He searched back and forth for about half a minute before finally taking his hand out.
"Young man, this is a thousand-year-old ginseng, it's very rare nowadays, enough to trade for something of yours."
"Um."
Xu Long took the thousand-year-old ginseng and discovered that it contained more spiritual energy than a whole Mid-Grade Spirit Stone.
However, the spiritual energy inside is mixed with other things, making it far less pure than that of Spirit Stone.
A surge of Extreme Yang, Absolute Yin True Qi erupted, instantly pulverizing the ginseng.
When spiritual energy is absorbed into the body, impurities are left behind.
"Huh? The Power of Extreme Yang, Absolute Yin?"
Sensing that violent aura, Immortal Muluo was taken aback. "Young man, you must be from another world, right?"
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
Xu Long asked, somewhat surprised.
Although this old elf is called an immortal, his strength is extremely weak, barely qualifying him as Mid Innate cultivator.
"Although elves are far less powerful than fairies, they are much more attuned to nature."
The Immortal Muluo stroked his beard. "We are born from nature and can sense nature. Your aura is out of place in this world; it must come from outside."
"That's right, I am indeed from another place."
Xu Long nodded, without denying it.
"Since it comes from the outside world, it certainly won't use the cultivation methods of this world."
Immortal Muluo finished speaking, a sharp glint suddenly flashed in his eyes. "Young man, would you like to learn the cultivation methods of this world? If you give me some more of that stuff from before, I'll teach you everything I know."
"The cultivation methods of this world? What's the point of learning them?"
Xu Long shook his head. With Curse Speech Technique at his disposal, those random spells were actually useless.
With one Curse Speech Technique, you can have anything you want.
"Don't say that. Every world has its own advantages. I know you're strong, but you can become even stronger."
Immortal Muluo onto Xu Long's lap and said, "Let me see what kind of attributes are hidden within your body."
As soon as he finished speaking, a faint green light emerged from the Immortal Muluo and entered Xu Long's body.
This force was very gentle and showed no signs of eroding the internal organs or meridians, so Xu Long let it circulate within his body.
That being said, even if it's eroded, it doesn't matter.
The Power of Extreme Yang, Absolute Yin is an extremely powerful force; it's a blessing if it doesn't corrupt others, so who would dare to corrupt it?
"Huh, it's a dual-elemental entity of Yin and Yang. Logically speaking, such a powerful Yang attribute should have erased all other attributes long ago. How strange."
Immortal Muluo muttered something in surprise and continued his investigation.
After about two minutes, the green light on my hand slowly disappeared.
"You are Innate with both Yin and Yang attributes, meaning you possess both Yin and Yang properties simultaneously. Logically, this 'extreme' power is extremely powerful and exclusive, making it impossible for other attributes to coexist, unless..."
"Unless what?"
Xu Long asked.
"Unless you are the reincarnation of the legendary Dijun, only he could possess both extreme yang and extreme yin powers simultaneously."
Immortal Muluo looked at Xu Long, his eyes shining as he spoke.
" Dijun?"
Xu Long was stunned for a moment, feeling that it was a bit far-fetched.
Dijun was a super deity from the ancient times, a terrifying being with the power to create the world.
His name is mentioned many times in pre-Qin classics such as the Classic of Classic of Mountains and Seas and Seas. The sun goddess Xihe and the Taiyin goddess Changxi were both his wives.
Xu Long is just a mere human, who at most was lucky enough to have transmigrated once and then received special attention from the Main God. How could he possibly be the reincarnation of Dijun?
However, it doesn't seem impossible.
So many people die every day in the Great Wilderness Main World, why did Xu Long alone transmigrate?
Why is Xu Long the only one receiving attention among so many Reincarnation Temple within the Reincarnation Temple?
Furthermore, all the power of "extreme" originates from ancient gods. Normally, it requires summoning the remnants of divine souls that wander in the void, and then being bestowed upon them.
But what about Xu Long?
I obtained it directly when I advanced to the Innate!
If other people knew, she'd probably cry.
After painstakingly collecting resources and begging from all sides, they barely managed to summon the remnant soul of a deity, and even then, there's no guarantee that the deity will be favored.
Xu Long, on the other hand, got it without any trouble at all.
"Maybe..."
Xu Long didn't know what to say, so he could only give a vague reply.
"Yes, the power of 'Extreme' must come from the gods. Even if it wasn't Dijun, it should be related to other gods. Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that he was just lucky and was chosen by a god beforehand."
Immortal Muluo nodded, his expression perfectly calm.
