A Demon Herb a Hundred Million Years Old
Lu Qing'an ignored the group of remnant souls at the Great Emperor Realm rushing towards him, grabbed Wu Ciren's clone puppet, and with a flash, he seemed to traverse space and arrived a mile away.
He stood suspended above the lake, with the calm, deep blue water beneath his feet reflecting the misty sky.
In the heart of the lake, a ball of Flame of the Azure Nether burned quietly, its core a deep, icy blue, while its outer layer was enveloped in a translucent, pale blue glow, like the imprisoned polar cold light.
The flames sometimes stretched out like silk ribbons dancing lightly, and sometimes contracted into a lotus flower shape to bloom. Each leap brought up fine frost crystals, which condensed into spider web-like ice patterns in the air.
Even more strangely, the lake water within three zhang around the flames did not evaporate; instead, it condensed into a crystalline ice platform, forming a bizarre balance with the scorching flames.
"With this addition of the Flame of the Azure Nether, along with the Golden Crow Flame and the Earth Soul Flame from before, we now have three different kinds of Divergent Flame. Once we find the remaining two, Minzi's Fire God’s Contract will be able to unleash its strongest power."
This was definitely a chance encounter.
He prepared to put away the Flame of the Azure Nether.
This level of Divergent Flame posed no threat to him.
only.
Just as he was about to accept the Divergent Flame Divergent Flame, the lake surface around it suddenly exploded.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of remnant souls shot out from the lake.
With the arrival of the remnant souls flying in from not far away, Lu Qing'an and Wu Ciren were surrounded by a dense array of remnant souls at the Great Emperor Realm in a short time.
The number is so large that it is difficult to count them all.
"It seems these remnant souls enjoy resting in this water." Lu Qing'an smiled calmly.
Although Wu Ciren hadn't personally entered the room, he was only seeing this scene through his clone puppet, and it still sent chills down his spine.
That must be several hundred remnant souls of the Great Emperor Realm!
Moreover, she sensed that the ten remnant souls among them were extremely powerful!
"You need to be careful. I have a feeling that some of these remnant souls might be as powerful as you used to be..."
Wu Ciren had barely finished speaking when she saw Lu Qing'an glance at the remnant souls, and a strange scene unfolded.
Boom boom boom boom!
All the remnant souls surrounding them suddenly exploded on their own!
It was like bottles filled with ink being blown apart by firecrackers.
In an instant, all the remaining souls turned into black mist.
Another gust of wind blew by, and all the remaining souls vanished.
Lu Qing'an said, "So, mental attacks are indeed effective. That makes sense, since they're all remnant souls."
He continued to cultivate his soul whenever he had free time, and now his soul strength has increased again.
Wu Ciren: "..."
She had never witnessed Lu Qing'an's actions firsthand, but now that she had seen it for herself, she felt as if a huge block of ice was lodged in her heart.
It sent chills down her spine!
This is terrifying!!!
After Lu Qing'an destroyed all the remnant souls, his gaze returned to the Flame of the Azure Nether. Just as he was about to accept the Flame of the Azure Nether again, a cold light rushed towards him from not far away.
"Huh, what's this thing?"
Wu Ciren shouted quickly, "It's Heavenly Dao Puppet! Be careful! If you are injured by the Heavenly Dao Puppet, even a small wound will leave a permanent Dao injury! At best, your cultivation will plummet every moment. At worst, you will surely die!"
Lu Qing'an responded with an "oh," indicating that he indeed needed to be extremely vigilant.
So, he squinted at the Heavenly Dao Puppet attacking him, and with a thought, he created a barrier.
Buzz!
A massive barrier instantly contained the attacking target.
Furthermore, the barrier rapidly contracted, and in the blink of an eye, it had completely restrained an object.
"Is this what they call Heavenly Dao Puppet?"
The so-called Heavenly Dao Puppet is as majestic as an iron tower, its entire body formed from dark golden Heavenly Dao Principle, and its surface is covered with mysterious silver Dao patterns, like a flowing galaxy.
Its head is diamond-shaped, without facial features, except for a scarlet Eye of the Heavenly Dao embedded between its eyebrows, which coldly scans the surroundings.
His arms were as sharp as giant axes, with chains of chaotic energy wrapped around his joints. With each step he took, a formation of light appeared beneath his feet, suppressing countless ages.
He exuded the pressure of the Heavenly Dao, like a judge of the entire battlefield.
Lu Qing'an approached, stroked his chin, and circled the Heavenly Dao Puppet that was frantically attacking the barrier.
His strength is indeed remarkable, roughly half of what he had before he gained a million times his cultivation level!
Wu Ciren said that the number of Heavenly Dao Puppet in the entire ruins of the Immortal-Demon War is not very large. These Heavenly Dao Puppet are patrolmen set up by the Heavenly Dao to protect this sealed land.
Each one is extremely powerful.
Of the powerful individuals who entered this place with Wu Ciren, half perished at the hands of a Heavenly Dao Puppet.
Wu Ciren was lucky; he protected a group of people from the beginning and escaped immediately when danger struck, which is how he barely survived.
"Can I take this thing away from here and study it back home?" Lu Qing'an turned to Wu Ciren and asked with a smile.
This thing is quite unique, even more perfect than Wu Ciren's clone puppet. Its exquisite craftsmanship makes it resemble a work of art.
He wanted to investigate what powered this thing and why it possessed such immense power.
"That's not a good idea... This is something belonging to the Heavenly Dao. I suggest you control it and don't try to destroy it. Otherwise, the Heavenly Dao might come after you recover from its injuries and hold you accountable..."
Seeing how easily Lu Qing'an controlled a Heavenly Dao Puppet, Wu Ciren gave a wry smile.
She didn't know what the Heavenly Dao was exactly.
Lu Qing'an was somewhat curious about what the Heavenly Dao was.
They definitely possess independent consciousness.
Does it possess a physical form?
Does the Heavenly Dao depend on the world for its existence?
He can easily destroy the Cangyun Continent, but can he also destroy the Heavenly Dao?
"I'll take it back and study it." Lu Qing'an directly put away the Heavenly Dao Puppet that he had imprisoned.
Wu Ciren: "..."
Is this what they call "high skill breeds daring"?!
Without any obstacles, Lu Qing'an finally and easily accepted the Flame of the Azure Nether.
Wu Ciren was no longer surprised to see Lu Qing'an so easily put away a ball of Flame of the Azure Nether, capable of destroying Peak Great Emperor Realm expert, as if it were a small stone.
This is the power of the strongest in the Demon Domain!
"Alright, let's not waste any more time, let's hurry up and find the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine."
After thoroughly investigating the battlefield of the Immortal-Demon War, his interest waned considerably. So, he took Wu Ciren with him and flew at full speed towards the location of the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine.
He transformed into a streak of light, moving at a speed too fast for the naked eye to perceive.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the location Wu Ciren had described.
Along the way, they also grabbed another Heavenly Dao Consciousness Puppet.
There are now two statues.
For research purposes, a control group is definitely better.
"It's around here," Wu Ciren said.
She has very mixed feelings right now.
Anyone who comes in here has to be extremely careful.
That Eternal Night Demon Emperor is acting as if he's strolling through his own backyard!
The two began searching for the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine in the vicinity.
Finally, after flying for about ten more miles, they came across a Primordial Heart-Returning Vine!
This Primordial Heart-Returning Vine is different from the one from last time.
It's actually a Primordial Heart-Returning Vine that's a hundred million years old!!!
Lu Qing'an's expression brightened slightly.
There really is such an ancient potion!
"Wait, what's that thing?"
Before Lu Qing'an could study the Primordial Heart-Returning Vine too much, he suddenly looked up at the sky.
For dozens of miles around, a huge pillar of light could be seen rising straight from the ground into the sky!
There was too much black mist shrouding us before, so we couldn't see clearly. Only now that we're closer can we see it.
Wu Ciren said, "I've heard that's the World-Stabilizing Divine Pillar! After the Immortal Domain and the Demon Domain Realm collided, the Cangyun Continent was in an unstable state. It was only thanks to this World-Stabilizing Divine Pillar that it was stabilized. Legend has it that if anyone's strength exceeds the World-Stabilizing Divine Pillar ' capacity, the Cangyun Continent will collapse!!"
Lu Qing'an blinked.
Wow!
This is interesting!
So the system's restrictions were related to this?
And if he makes good use of this thing, does that mean he'll finally know how much of his strength he should use?!
