Volume's End: The First True Law Treasure (3/3)
The next day, in Mountain Hollow Village.
Despite yesterday's chaos.
However, the villagers of Mountain Hollow Village were not significantly affected.
On the contrary, thanks to the Sleepy Bug ' abilities, the villagers, who had been controlled by the Six-Tailed Fox for so long, were able to get a good night's sleep, a rare treat.
After Chi and the pregnant woman explained the situation, the villagers had no choice but to accept the fact that their long-worshipped Land God had been killed by another "god".
As for the truth of the matter?
Seeing the indifferent expression on his face, the villagers neither asked nor dared to ask.
In any case, all the villagers in the Mountain Hollow Village could do was obediently accept this reality, accept that they had been saved once again by the "Son of the Mountain God".
Even starting this morning, strong tremors have been felt intermittently in the valley not far from Mountain Hollow Village.
Under the reassurance of the group of Human-Faced Fish, the villagers had no choice but to obediently go and try to salvage the rice paddies that hadn't been completely ruined.
Hopefully, there will be a good harvest before winter arrives this year.
In fact, all the villagers could see that this hope was already very slim.
Already suffering from disaster due to the mountain monster, they have now missed their last chance to plant rice.
Adding to the woes, the Land God who had always protected the Mountain Hollow Village had also died, leaving almost everyone wondering how they were going to get through this winter.
"Maybe we really won't make it through this year."
Feeling the occasional tremors beneath his feet, Uncle Lu sat dejectedly on the edge of the field.
Beside Uncle Lu, the pregnant woman who had been rescued by Li Boyang yesterday was gently stroking her belly, softly comforting her.
"Father, it's not time to lose heart yet."
"The Son of the Mountain God Divine Ability incredibly powerful and kind-hearted; we can still ask him for help."
He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but hesitated, Uncle Lu expression extremely complicated.
"Given the current situation, we might not even be able to repay the seed we borrowed from Li Household Village. How can we possibly face the Son of the Mountain God?"
"Besides, even if the Son of the Mountain God were truly willing to save us, what then? He can't possibly conjure food out of thin air, can he?"
At this point, Uncle Lu seemed to remember something and suddenly paused.
"Maybe—there really is still hope for us?"
Let's rewind to a few hours earlier, in the valley near Mountain Hollow Village.
"Is this why you woke me up so early in the morning?"
Looking at the giant Lu Gui with its head severed, Xiluo turned her face away with considerable disgust.
Even though only one night had passed, the Lu Gui's body had already begun to emit a foul stench.
In particular, the foul blood gushing from the wounds almost submerged the entire valley.
The moment I smelled that nauseating stench of blood...
Xiluo began to regret coming to this godforsaken place with Li Boyang.
This needs to be handled urgently.
"Otherwise, if this corpse is allowed to decompose here, it will eventually pollute all the waterways within a hundred miles."
Li Boyang frowned, equally surprised that the Lu Gui's body would decompose so quickly.
This abnormal rate of decay is clearly related to those Shadow Baleful Intent Dharma Aspect and is a consequence of the continuous erosion of the dwelling by Sha Qi.
You want me to burn it down?
Upon hearing Xiluo's words, Li Boyang shook his head decisively without hesitation, indicating his denial.
"No, that would be too wasteful."
Seeing the puzzled look on Xiluo's face, Li Boyang explained with a smile.
"This Lu Gui was not only a near-divine spirit in its lifetime, but its shell was also engraved with Yin-Yang Talisman Incantation."
"I plan to make use of this waste material and forge a Law Treasure that truly belongs to me."
As Li Boyang spoke, he slowly opened his palm.
Buzz!
In an instant, the Imprisoned Soul Cauldron flew out of Li Boyang's palm and rapidly expanded.
From a small, exquisite Pill Furnace to a towering cauldron several meters high, and then back to its original size as a colossal creature.
The Imprisoned Soul Cauldron spun rapidly in mid-air, and an invisible suction force simultaneously acted on the Lu Gui's body.
Buzz!
First, the foul blood flowed back and surged into the Imprisoned Soul Cauldron.
Then the enormous body began to slowly detach from the ground, and was then swallowed into the Imprisoned Soul Cauldron.
During this process, the Imprisoned Soul Cauldron continued to grow larger, while the enormous Lu Gui corpse was strangely shrinking.
"Help me light the fire; I need to concentrate now."
Upon hearing this, Xiluo immediately understood why Li Boyang had pulled her over.
"Are you treating me like free labor again?"
Despite her complaints, Xiluo ultimately leaped into the air, transforming into a red leopard and igniting the massive Imprisoned Soul Cauldron in mid-air.
Tumultuous!
The moment the flames were ignited, seven-colored alchemical fire overflowed from the cauldron.
For the first time, all the Talisman Seal Script surrounding the Imprisoned Soul Cauldron were illuminated.
Immediately, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi) surged into the Imprisoned Soul Cauldron like rivers flowing into the sea, becoming fuel for the burning pill fire.
Vortex Vortex
The commotion caused by the Imprisoned Soul Cauldron was simply too great.
In just a short breath, a visible vortex of Yuan Qi formed in mid-air.
In contrast, Li Boyang calmly took out the Heavenly Mandate Bone Plastron and began the formal process of occupancy and deduction.
Only after confirming that everything is ready.
Li Boyang then officially began his first real "weapon forging" experience.
tumultuous··
His hands quickly formed Law Seals, and the Life Primordial Qi within his body surged like ocean waves.
In the blink of an eye, Li Boyang's Life Primordial Qi surged into the Imprisoned Soul Cauldron, and then guided more Life Primordial Qi to merge into the Lu Gui corpse.
At that very moment, the Lu Gui's flesh and blood were completely refined, transforming into pure Life Primordial Qi that dissipated.
On the contrary, it was the tortoise shell engraved with the [Yin-Yang Talisman Incantation].
After absorbing the surging Life Primordial Qi and the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, it shone with a light as dazzling as the sun.
Amidst the blazing fire, the Maxims Talismans on the tortoise shell were gradually completed and simplified.
Correspondingly, the massive tortoise shell, as large as a mountain, gradually shrank, embodying the concept of "concentration is the essence" to its fullest extent.
What is that?
Startled, Xiluo, who was manipulating the alchemical fire, let out a gasp of surprise.
As the tortoise shell shrank, the seven-colored elixir fire inexplicably developed a sense of harmony and balance.
Soon, the seven colors faded quickly, replaced by a purer, colorless elixir fire.
Tumultuous!
Under the scorching heat of this colorless elixir, the tortoise shell gradually shrank to the size of a palm.
From afar, one can see surging Life Primordial Qi flowing along the Maxims Talismans on the tortoise shell, radiating a vibrant life force completely at odds with its own nature.
But at that moment, the phantom of a tortoise emerged from its shell, yet it was unable to manifest its complete form.
As a result, the palm-sized tortoise shell suddenly swelled up again, showing faint signs of getting out of control.
Fortunately, Li Boyang reacted quickly and managed to control the tortoise shell in an instant.
"? Is it really impossible to mold it in one go?"
Seeing that even with continued effort, the tortoise shell could not be shrunk any further, it was now Li Boyang's turn to be surprised and doubtful.
"The Yin-Yang Talisman Incantation is divided into Yin and Yang; currently, it only has the Yang side and lacks the Yin side."
"It seems this treasure isn't ready to be born yet!"
