Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Yang Jingmu drove the renovated treasure ship through the sky. She did not stop after arriving at Tianxing Mountain. She took out a jade tablet and input a spiritual power into it. Suddenly the clouds and mist surged, and a formation on the mountain opened a passage.
Afterwards, the treasure ship sailed straight into the formation, and the formation quickly returned to its original state.
"Senior, I have found the blue sea glass fruits and golden flame flowers you need to make alchemy."
As soon as Yang Jingmu returned to Tianxing Mountain, she went to Shen Mo Cave Mansion without stopping and handed a Qiankun Bag into his hands.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Shen Mo took the Qiankun bag with a smile, and then took out more than ten wooden boxes that were specially refined to perfectly preserve the power of the elixir.
Opening the wooden boxes one by one, four blue fruits and nine golden flowers appeared in front of them...
The former has a crystal-clear and round appearance, as if it is made from a combination of pearls and glass from the seabed, exuding a faint sea-blue brilliance. Taking it alone can enhance a monk's perception and control of the power of water in a short period of time. It is a rare treasure for monks and water spirits who practice water-based skills and immortal arts.
The latter is as bright as the scorching sun, its petals are forged like real gold, and the stamens in the center are burning with blazing golden flames. It has the effect of burning filthy evil spirits, but if it is swallowed directly without any treatment, even Yuandan realm monks will be disappointed. It was difficult to suppress its violent medicinal properties, and he eventually died from internal combustion!
"Golden flame flowers grow on volcanic magma. Although they are rare, the Tianyao Mountains have some products after all. The blue sea corals that bear the blue sea fruits only grow on the bottom of the sea. The Tianyao Mountains are millions of miles away from the nearest sea. Yao, where did you find the Blue Sea Fruit?"
"I used a spiritual-level magic weapon to get it from a Cangminghai casual cultivator!" Yang Jingmu briefly explained the origin of the Blue Sea Glazed Fruit.
Although demons and monsters are rampant in the Tianyao Mountains, and there are still spells, formations and restrictions left over from the war three thousand years ago, which can be described as dangerous and unpredictable, the products are also relatively abundant. Occasionally, high-level monks come here to collect spiritual resources and trade with Yang Jingmu. The Cangminghai casual cultivator of Bihailiuguo is one of them.
As for the golden flame flowers, Yang Jingmu drilled into several volcanoes and picked them with her own hands.
Shen Mo nodded, and with a flick of his hand, he put the Blue Sea Glass Fruit and Golden Flame Flower back into the wooden box: "With these two elixirs, we have all the raw materials needed to refine the elixir to exorcise evil spirits. This elixir is The effect is very extraordinary, it can completely remove the two evil curses cast on your soul!"
The elixir for exorcising evil spirits is a sixth-grade elixir developed by Shen Mo and Zhao Lingyin.
At that time, he used the [Spirit Devouring] magical power and the "Dragon Elephant Blood Evil Body" to cultivate with the help of the original power contained in the index finger of the All Saints Venerable. As a result, because it was difficult to refine and remove the Taoist brand and his own will of this demonic immortal, his The body, soul, and even mana are all showing signs of distortion.
Later, relying on the powerful effect of expelling evil spirits and crossing Erdan, he was able to completely suppress the contamination and distortion of himself by the alien power.
Yang Jingmu's physical body and soul were seriously injured during the Yunxiao Sect rebellion. After Shen Mo's careful treatment in the past three years, the physical injuries are mostly unharmed, but the curse placed on her soul is extremely difficult.
One of them is gnawing at her soul every moment to strengthen the power of the curse, and the other is constantly polluting and twisting her soul... These two evil curses are very different from the fairy spells in the Nine Heavens Realm, and they are both obviously from With the hands of Yuanjun's incarnation, Shen Mo spent a lot of effort to temporarily suppress these two evil curses, but he couldn't get rid of the root cause even with all his methods!
So Shen Mo thought of exorcising evil spirits and crossing Erdan, which was just right for Yang Jingmu's situation.
However, he did not carry this elixir with him and needed to refining it...
Although the spiritual plants and elixirs in the immortal world are not exactly the same as those in the immortal world, and even the time difference is countless thousands of years, the principles of alchemy are the same. In the past two thousand years, Shen Mo has already made this world native After researching the elixir, it didn't take much effort to find a substitute for each raw material.
Over the years of trading with the Yunxiao Sect, he has accumulated a lot of raw materials for elixirs. He has collected most of the ingredients needed to make elixirs, but there are still a few main ingredients that need to be collected.
Due to the limitations of the will of this space, time and universe, Shen Mo was unable to use his cultivation beyond the Qi Gathering Realm. After leaving the Tianxing Mountain Formation, he had to use flying swords to even perform escape techniques. The speed was extremely slow, and he was in the dangerous Tianyao Mountains. It is easy to be targeted by demons and other monks, and it is very inconvenient to go out.
So he handed over the task of collecting raw materials to Yang Jingmu. After all, the purpose of refining the exorcism-free Dan was to heal her wounds, so it was appropriate to work harder.
Yang Jingmu lived up to her expectations and collected the missing elixirs one after another. Today she found the last two main ingredients and even the most rare blue sea glass fruit.
He originally thought that if Yang Jingmu could not find the Blue Sea Glazed Fruit, he would try to use elixirs with similar properties and efficacy such as Baoyuelian, but the effect would definitely not be as good as the exorcism-free pill refined from the Blue Sea Fruit!
Putting away the Blue Sea Glass Fruit and Golden Fire Flower, Shen Mo returned to the cave and began to refine the elixir.
The elixir refining process went very smoothly. Except for the fact that the first batch did not grasp the medicinal properties of the golden flame flower, which resulted in a slightly lower elixir yield rate, the elixir yield rates in the second and third batches reached normal levels, with a total of twenty-six elixirs. pellets, half of which have perfect quality and above.
As soon as Yang Jingmu took a pill, two wisps of black energy overflowed from the center of her eyebrows. One wisp turned into a grimace and roared, and the other turned into a vine that seemed to take root in Tianxing Mountain. Shen Mo immediately slashed it with his sword to destroy it. Almost exhausted.
"Jingmu is deeply touched by the kindness of our seniors!"
Yang Jingmu noticed that the two curses on her soul were weakened by three points, and there was a hint of excitement in her eyes, and she quickly saluted Shen Mo to thank her.
Because of these two evil curses, her cultivation has barely improved in the past three years. Now that she has seen the dawn of hope, how can she not be happy and excited about it?
Shen Mo gave her a few more instructions and asked her to go back to her cave to heal.
…
On this day, Shen Mo was refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth with the "Blood Spirit Boundless Art" and accumulating the power of the blood spirit.
Suddenly, a sudden thought occurred in my heart, and I felt that the world here was sinking. At the same time, a dead and decaying atmosphere suddenly appeared in the world!
He quickly walked out of the cave, flew to the top of Tianxing Mountain and looked around... Various strange celestial phenomena occurred frequently, and there were hundreds of forbidden places, extraterrestrial beings and evil spirits coming from outside the territory. Even the Tianyao Mountain Range had two taboos. The land falls.
Ninety percent of the evil curse on Yang Jingmu's soul has been removed. When she was about to go all out to completely remove the evil curse, she felt something. She flew out of the cave and landed next to Shen Mo. She felt all the strange scenes in the world and couldn't help but stare. Eyes: "Senior Mo, what happened?"
"The realm of immortality has fallen off the tree of the universe!"
Shen Mo had personally experienced the drastic changes in the world of Taichu, and he could see at a glance what was happening in this world.
All the heavens and worlds, including the fairy world, are very much like leaves dotted on the tree of the universe. Although they are related to each other, they can still be regarded as independent individuals!
The veins of each leaf in the world are different, and the environment in the world is also very different. It may be as dead and silent as the void, or there may be only a ball of evil energy from the five elements, or it may give birth to billions of living beings...
During the spring and summer, the World Leaf absorbs the nutrients of the Cosmic Tree and then thrives.
When it reaches its peak stage, it can absorb the unknown power like sunlight and water in the void and feed it back to the big tree of the universe.
However, once autumn and winter arrive, the leaves will turn yellow and fall, falling to the ground and turning into mud. They will turn into putrefaction and continue to provide nutrients for the big tree so that it can continue to grow buds in the coming year.
One year old and another prosperous, the cycle begins again and again, forever and ever!
Of course, one year of the tree of the universe is as long as billions of years.
Every leaf on the tree has its own cycle of withering and prosperity, not budding, growing, and dying all at once.
Today's Immortality Realm is the same as the Taichu Realm. It has reached the withering stage and has fallen off the branches. When it falls on the ground, it will soon rot into mud in the Chi Realm.
Before it completely withers and decays, it will go through a long period of time, and it will accumulate and come into contact with other withering leaves. The strong people in the Shenqiao realm in the world can refine the forbidden land and use the method of descending to travel back and forth. If the aura of the world is infiltrated, a large number of evil spirits will come over.
"Senior..." Yang Jingmu looked at Shen Mo and hesitated to speak.
"Except for the fairy world, all other worlds will wither, and monks like us can't stop it."
Shen Mo seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and said calmly, "For you, there is a good side and a bad side. It can be said that blessings and misfortunes depend on each other!"
As far as he knows, every time the tide of the Xuanhuang Universe rises and falls, a large number of worlds will begin to wither, which invisibly coincides with the replacement of "spring and summer" and "autumn and winter". It is estimated that it will not be long before the universe and the world will enter the rising tide period. Restore the close connection between the heavens and the world.
The Taichu Realm is like this, and judging from the development of later generations, the Immortal Realm is also like this, otherwise Yang Jingmu would not be able to ascend to the Immortal Realm.
For Yang Jingmu, this matter has advantages and disadvantages. With the arrival of a large number of taboo places and extraterrestrial beings, the incarnations of Qingsheng Yuanjun in other worlds can also take the opportunity to enter the immortal world, and Yang Jingmu's situation will become more difficult.
However, she also gained a wider and more spacious space to move around.
…
"It seems that a lot of the teleportation arrays I deployed throughout the Immortal Realm were destroyed. Fortunately, a dozen or so of them survived."
Shen Mo once again strengthened the formations at Tianxing Mountain, and then checked the large teleportation formation outside the cave, and found that half of the formations connected to the other end were damaged.
For nearly two thousand years, in order to make it easier for him to travel, he would leave the Tianyao Mountains every sixty seconds after he had accumulated enough formation materials, and set up formations in the Immortal Realm such as Xianfang Market Town, casual cultivator gathering places, and remote mountains. The teleportation circle is connected to Tianxing Mountain. Although half of it was destroyed during the changes in the world, half of it can still be used normally.
It didn't take long for Yang Jingmu to understand the specific meaning of his words and deeds... Someone from "outside the territory" came to Tianxing Mountain!
She didn't know the true identity of this person, but Shen Mo knew that he was also an incarnation of Qingsheng Yuanjun, but he was not from the Immortal World, but a "monk" from the Withered World, with the cultivation level of Shenqiao Realm. After the immortal world withered, this incarnation immediately refined the forbidden land and came over.
Shen Mo spent a lot of effort and almost exhausted the spiritual objects brought from the sealed time and space before he could barely block the attack of the incarnation of the Shenqiao Realm Lord.
However, things are not over yet.
As time goes by, the incarnations of Qingsheng Yuanjun in different withered worlds continue to come through various channels.
Some have the cultivation level of Shenqiao and can directly refine the forbidden land, while others are the disciples and clan members of the monks of Shenqiao and entered the world of immortality by taking advantage of the forbidden land of their "elders"!
In just half a year, hundreds of incarnations of Dao Yuanjun appeared outside Tianxing Mountain.
Shen Mo cast a spell to investigate and found that among more than a hundred incarnations, at least twenty people had Shenqiao realm monks, and the weakest among the rest were also Yuandan monks.
This can't help but give him a headache.
"If they join forces to attack, the Five Elements Formation can last at most three months. It's time to leave Tianxing Mountain!" Shen Mo thought to himself as he felt the terrifying energy looming outside the mountain.
He once used the "Divination Treasure Mirror" to make predictions, and found that Yang Jingmu could not be calculated, and the secrets related to her were also in a state of chaos...
This is normal if you think about it carefully. Yang Jingmu became a heavenly immortal in later generations, and even became the ancestor of the Shinto in the Immortal Era. In other words, she is a person with great luck.
If measured by the standards of the Destiny Panel, her basic Destiny Path is probably [Heavenly Secret Protection], which is in line with the characteristics that are difficult to calculate, and may even reach the [Unity of Heaven and Earth] that he spent countless Destiny Points to improve!
Although Shen Mo didn't know how Qingsheng Yuanjun noticed Yang Jingmu's abnormality.
But what is certain is that once Qingsheng Yuanjun completely loses his perception of Yang Jingmu, it will not be easy to find her again through means such as calculation, so as long as he teleports away, he can temporarily get rid of the entanglement of Yuanjun's incarnation!
Just when Shen Mo was about to activate the transmission array and take Yang Jingmu to other places, the color of the sky and the earth suddenly changed, and a vast and cold ghost wind enveloped the entire Tianyao Mountain Range.
Subsequently,
He and Yang Jingmu then saw strange corpses flying through the dark wind, heading towards the hundreds of incarnations of Dao Yuan Lord gathered together.
"Senior, the woman wearing white clothes and wearing an auspicious cloud jade ring on her waist is the founder of our Yunxiao Sect." Yang Jingmu suddenly pointed to one of the strange corpses and said with an unbelievable tone.
"It's a corpse spirit! Could it be the secrets accumulated by the major immortal sects in the Immortal Realm from generation to generation?"
Shen Mo looked at the strange corpse in the cold wind, and his thoughts began to flow rapidly in his heart.
Corpse spirits are born from the remains of powerful immortals. They generally inherit part of the heritage, origin and memory of their predecessors. However, after all, they are not the people of their predecessors, but independent creatures. In essence, they are the same as the weapon spirits born from magic weapons. The category of spirits.
The only difference is that the weapon spirit is born and relies on magic weapons, while the corpse spirit is the remains of the strong!
