Chapter 1002 Supreme Dao Seed

Blood flowed from Baiye Shengjun's brow, like a touch of crimson rouge.

The magnetic needle immediately destroyed her brain tissue; its powerful piercing force exceeded her reaction time.

The White Bone Myriad Spirit Umbrella is her natal magical treasure, nurtured within her body for over six thousand years. The animal hide covering its surface has undergone special treatment, achieving a level of flexibility comparable to a top-grade fifth-tier spiritual object.

Normally, it's impossible for it to fail to withstand a single impact.

However, this attack was led by the Flame Banner, and the torrent of fire-elemental energy reversed the five elements and disrupted yin and yang, greatly weakening the magic weapon's defensive capabilities.

Essentially, this magical artifact also belongs to the Yin and Yang category.

The moment the umbrella was pierced, she instinctively turned her head, but the thought was punctured the moment she was hit.

Such an injury is not absolutely fatal for a cultivator at the late stage of the Three Flowers Realm, but after the Yuan Magnetic Needle destroyed her brain tissue, it released a ring of black and white spiritual light, interfering with her control.

In other words, at this moment her demonic infant lost control of its body.

The white bone demon scattered into bone fragments, and Ji An seized the opportunity to activate his magic power, releasing a black wave, which was the activation of the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag.

If he continued to use the Flame Banner, he was confident he could incinerate the enemy's body, but how could he act so brutally!

The enemy is dead, but he has many more things to consider. Burning the enemy's body is too wasteful; they are all excellent fertilizer!

Therefore, he intends to use the power of water to snatch the person's body, and then use the Yin-Yang Spiritual Fire to 'gently' burn it, striving not to waste a single bit of ashes.

The demonic infant of the White Night Saint Lord sensed the change and immediately fled from his body, only to find the turbid waves surging.

She desperately channeled her primordial demonic energy, attempting to block the invasion of the black water, while simultaneously emitting piercing demonic sounds. This served two purposes: firstly, to attack the enemy's soul and hinder the attack's momentum, and secondly, to call for help from her senior brother.

Things happened with lightning speed. The Holy Lord of the Moon Worship had no idea that the White Bone Demon God, on whom he had placed such high hopes, would be so easily defeated. He hadn't even found the best time to enter the battle yet.

Only after the appearance of the White Night Saint King's demonic infant did he realize how critical the situation had become. He focused his gaze and made a decision in his heart.

The most powerful blood spirit roared forward as boundless blood energy converged like a tide, surging towards the black water.

At the same time, countless whispers converged into waves, and the bewitching demonic sounds launched an indiscriminate attack.

The demonic sound was significantly weakened by the sound of the black water waves, and by the time it reached Ji An's ears, it was already at its last gasp, with only about 40% of its power remaining.

Such an attack could not cause much damage, so Ji An remained calm.

The poor White Night Saintess was engulfed by the black water, while the demonic infant was attacked by its own side and devoured by the blood soul hidden in the blood river.

In the mind of the Holy Lord of the Moon Worship, his fellow disciples had already lost most of their strength, so it would be better to use their remaining bodies to help him cultivate.

The blood river and the black water collided, and the enormous shockwave traveled through the earth's veins, causing half of the eighth-level mine tunnel to shake.

The presence of an enemy lurking behind them was unexpected by Ji An, and this was not a good sign.

Normally, a stalemate in battle is very disadvantageous for a cultivator who has already suffered great losses, at least that's what the Holy Lord Baiyue thought.

Moments later, the Blood Soul devoured the Demonic Infant, causing the Blood River to surge and occupy the entire mine tunnel space.

Blackwater was slightly outmatched and suffered repeated defeats.

Ji An remained calm and continued to activate the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag. As long as the enemy could not crush him immediately, he was not afraid of any war of attrition.

The Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag can obscure the universe, making it more suitable for trapping enemies than attacking them. He was looking for a suitable opportunity to remove the spiritual treasure.

The dark current in the black water swept the body of the White Night Saint Lord back. Ji An activated his divine sense to carefully examine it, but found nothing unusual. He then sent it into the Void Cave Stone.

No living organisms can survive inside the Void Stone, which is also a way of testing it.

He was relieved when the enemy's body entered the Void Stone normally.

Regardless of the final outcome of this battle, he has already achieved his goal.

While maintaining a stalemate with the enemy, he activated his cultivation technique to refine the pills and spiritual fruits he had swallowed earlier.

After all of these were refined, he took out the Yuan Crystal and absorbed its spiritual energy to refine them.

The spiritual energy in the Yuan Crystal is of very high quality, perfectly matching the attributes of cultivators, and is easier to refine.

Although Blackwater suffered repeated defeats, his magical power gradually increased.

When Ji An fully recovered, Hei Shui had been pushed back to a position ten feet in front of him.

He summoned the Flame Banner from the ground, and the fire phoenix let out a fierce cry, announcing its arrival to the heavens and earth.

Ji An had a sudden inspiration. Instead of removing the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag, he activated two top-grade fifth-tier spiritual treasures at the same time.

The mana consumption was several times greater, which was also extremely taxing on the Nascent Soul stage. However, in order to verify his thoughts, he still did it without hesitation.

If all goes well, he will be able to end this protracted and exhausting battle.

Even if you can't kill the enemy on the spot, you can at least rout them.

The crimson torrent and the black torrent merged and spiraled together. Initially, the two spiritual energies mutually depleted each other, but the combined power was slightly greater than that of activating the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag alone, though still only slightly greater.

Seeing this, the Holy Lord of the Moon sneered inwardly, thinking to himself, "What a foolish move the enemy has made."

However, seeing that the enemy was so wealthy, he felt a strange sense of pleasure.

After a moment, the black water and the crimson light gradually began to blend together.

Ji An's hands moved like afterimages, his hand seals rapidly evolving. A smile unconsciously appeared on his lips, and his eyes shone brightly.

A mysterious rhythm flows from his fingertips, and he is reconciling what seems like an incompatible situation.

Water represents the power of Yin, while fire represents the power of Yang. They can be seen as Yin and Yang forces in a narrow sense.

If he could generate Yin and Yang power through water and fire, the Plain Cloud Banner, the Azure Lotus Banner, and the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner would all become containers for storing his magical power.

At that time, his combat endurance will be greatly increased.

Ji An seemed to have forgotten the life-or-death battle that was taking place, constantly testing different combinations of frequencies while focusing intently on sensing the changes within them.

His spiritual sense abandoned the perception of time. He didn't know how much time had passed when the two originally opposing Five Elements spiritual energies merged perfectly, evolving into the power of Yin and Yang.

An overwhelming sense of joy welled up from the bottom of my heart, and at the same time, the Dao seed in my divine palace seemed to ripple with a sound like the crackling of Jun porcelain.

Ji An had no time to carefully examine the changes in the Dao Seeds; he focused all his energy on channeling his magic power into the two spiritual treasures to launch an attack.

At this moment, his mana was less than 30% of what it used to be, and if the battle dragged on any longer, things would turn out badly.

The black water and the red light coexisted harmoniously, with much less loss between them, and finally they merged completely, emitting a black and white spiritual light.

Black is pure black, so black that it can draw one's mind into it.

White is pure and spotless, exuding an aura of holiness.

Ji An understood that his understanding of Yin and Yang had reached a new level, which made him happier than winning the battle. What boosted his confidence even more was that the mana consumption for activating the two spiritual treasures had been greatly reduced.

At this moment, activating a spiritual treasure consumes more energy than activating one alone, but less than twice the energy of activating one alone. Logically speaking, this is impossible.

He can also inject the spiritual energy stored in the other five flags into the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag and the Li Di Flame Flag through the Five Elements Cycle, so that the consumption of magic power can be ignored for a period of time.

He only needed to replenish his spiritual energy to continue high-intensity combat, so Ji An did not hesitate to take out another Soul Nourishing Pill and swallow it.

Refining pills during combat would result in a significant waste, but now is not the time to feel bad about it.

In the eyes of the Holy Lord of the Moon, the enemy was already on the verge of collapse, but the situation reversed in an instant. The Blood River seemed to have met its nemesis and melted away in large quantities, like ice and snow exposed to the scorching sun.

This description is not accurate; a more precise description is that it evaporated directly and disappeared without a trace.

What pained him even more was the dramatic change in the enemy's attack strength in an instant. The Blood Soul in the Blood River was struck by the spiritual light and immediately lost an arm.

Fortunately, Blood Soul dodged quickly, otherwise half of his body would have been melted.

Blood soul is a condensation of vital energy, blood, and spirit. Physical damage is not a major injury, but the damage to his blood soul, which he cared about, destroyed hundreds of years of accumulation.

Enraged, his body began to swell and transform into a demonic form, with two horns sprouting from his head, resembling twisted bull horns, and uneven black scales growing from his forehead.

The black and white pupils turned blood red and emitted a light, like two red light bulbs, giving off an indescribable eeriness.

His skin turned dark red, and his bulging muscles resembled those of a skinned frog.

This is the strongest battle form of the Moon Worshiping Saint King. Blood Soul is an important asset for him, but not his only asset.

He can transform into a powerful monster at any time to fight, at which point his attack and defense are both enhanced to varying degrees.

He suppressed the loss of his vital energy and frantically activated his magic, his eyes revealing a vicious, cold light.

'The secret technique certainly won't last, otherwise the enemy would have used it long ago.'

In his mind, the enemy was using a desperate, secret method to try and defeat him so he could escape.

All he had to do was suppress the enemy's final counterattack and let them succumb to despair; the power of emotions was a delicious treat that Blood Soul loved.

As time passed, the ruthlessness in Baiyue Saint Lord's eyes gradually crumbled.

He had already consumed two Soul Essence Pills, which had depleted most of his demonic energy, but the enemy's attacks remained fierce.

What alarmed him even more was that Blood River's momentum was suppressed even when he was at his strongest.

It should be noted that Baiye Shengjun had already exhausted much of the enemy's strength, and the fact that he could not win under such circumstances greatly damaged his pride and confidence.

After a while, he realized that the enemy showed no signs of being unable to continue, while his own energy expenditure had exceeded the warning line.

Soul Essence Pills are incredibly precious, and he only had one left. After a moment's internal struggle, he swallowed the pill again.

This was his last effort; if he still couldn't defeat the enemy, he would have to retreat.

Ji An became increasingly adept at activating both magical treasures simultaneously, and he revealed a somewhat mocking expression after seeing the enemy take the medicine.

He took another Soul Nourishing Pill and spiritual fruit. In terms of foundation, he was no weaker than those veteran cultivators at the late stage of the Three Flowers Realm.

As time goes by, the inherent advantages of such cultivators will disappear.

At this moment, the prolonged and rapid depletion of his spiritual energy was already showing signs of aftereffects; his head was throbbing with pain, but he didn't show it on his face at all.

Half an hour later, the Holy Lord of the Moon burned his primordial blood to escape. Ji An saw that the enemy was fast and, in addition, was worried about the safety of the Five Mountains Hermit, so he did not pursue him.

He took out the array plate and array flags of the Nine-Bend Heavenly River Array, quickly set them up, and said:

"Guard it well and collect the scattered bone fragments."

He needed to quickly restore his magical power and divine sense, and immediately entered the gourd world after saying that.

Ayun lit the incense and began brewing the spiritual tea.

Ji An instructed Yue Ling'er and Da Huang to go outside and help with the guarding. Then he focused his mind on his dantian, and golden characters appeared in the sky above Guanghan Palace.

[Tao Seed - Yin Yang Two Forms (Supreme Grade): Comprehends the principle that Yin and Yang give rise to all things, enhances understanding of the Tao of Yin and Yang, and increases the power of all spells.]

As expected, the grade of the Dao Seed has been upgraded!

He smiled and shook his head, his eyes filled with joy. It could be said that he had reached the perfect level of the Three Flowers Realm in terms of his understanding of Yin and Yang power.

Once his magical power and spiritual strength reach the required level, he can explore how to embark on the path of Yin and Yang unity.

This battle utilized many imaginative spells, all of which he created on the spur of the moment. It could be said that he began to fuse all spells into one.

After drinking three pots of mid-grade fifth-level Jade Dew Golden Bud Tea, Ji An's severely depleted spiritual energy was replenished, and he felt the throbbing pain weaken considerably.

He took out the Yuan Crystal and held it in his hand, then activated his cultivation technique to quickly absorb and refine the spiritual energy within.

Outside, Yue Ling'er pointed to the smooth inner wall of the mine tunnel and asked:

"Was this left behind by His Majesty during his battle with the enemy?"

Wuyue Sanren sighed, "Yes! You weren't there at the time, so you missed the chance to see His Majesty display his divine power."

There were two enemies, attacking in two waves. They probably planned to first lull the emperor into a false sense of security and wear him down before looking for an opportunity to launch a surprise attack.

Unfortunately, the first enemy was broken through and killed, and the second enemy was no match for the sovereign and fled in a sorry state.

The widest part of the mine tunnel was no more than ten zhang in diameter; now it's nearly thirty zhang, all due to the collision of spells.

The powerful pressure and the fluctuations of magical intent terrified him; if he were hit by any attack from either side, he would be crippled even if he didn't die.

In addition, he personally witnessed the king achieve a breakthrough in battle.

He could never learn the mentality and strength to break through in the face of such a powerful enemy.

He changed the subject and continued:

"Judging from your aura, you're not far from breaking through, are you?"

Yue Ling'er's eyes curved into crescent moons as she nodded and said:

"Yes, we're doing the final polishing, and we expect to take that step in three to five years."

After regaining his magical power, Ji An left the small world and, after investigating for a while, said:

"There is no danger at the moment. You all continue to guard the area while I take stock of the spoils."

He first took out the body part torn from Blood Soul's body; the arm had turned into a lump of blood.

At the time, I was worried that there might be something strange in it, as the blood clots were frozen by a thick block of ice.

He activated his magic to reverse the ice and quickly melted it. After careful examination, he activated the Yin-Yang Spiritual Fire.

The blood clot seemed to be alive, writhing desperately after being burned by the flames, before being imprisoned and unable to escape its fate of being burned to ashes.

Unlike before, it doesn't have an odor when burning; instead, it has a sweet smell.

Having obtained half a urn of ash, Ji An tapped the container with satisfaction. This was top-grade fifth-tier fertilizer; the spiritual roots of heaven and earth in the small world were fortunate indeed.
