He stretched out his hand and waved it at the burial coffin, and suddenly a series of clanging sounds came from inside.

Jiang Li hid the thing in the deepest part of the coffin. He wanted to take it out quickly, and knocked over a lot of things.

After a while, a bunch of golden rice ears slowly floated out from the dark coffin.

【Name: Golden Rice Ear】

【Type:Seed】

[Grade: Earth Grade Middle Grade]

[Note: The sun grows one season, and the plant grows one bushel. Eating it strengthens the body.]

This was the treasure that Jiang Li obtained when he climbed the first thousand steps during the stair climbing test in the Star Picking Space.

Golden rice ears seem to be just a kind of spiritual plant that grows very fast and has a high yield, and is only related to the people's livelihood in ordinary mortal countries.

At most, eating rice grown from golden rice regularly can strengthen one's body, but the effect may not be better than professional elixirs.

For Jiang Li personally, it is of little use.

And because of the revival of spiritual energy, all plants are able to grow surprisingly well.

There are basically very few places in Kyushu where famine will occur, and there is no need for golden rice ears to relieve suffering.

Therefore, this thing has been thrown into the corner and collected dust, used as a backup material for some witchcraft, and has not received much attention.

But later, by chance, he obtained a magical jade pendant from the Yun Mansion that could detect the consequences of good deeds and bad deeds.

Once, the jade pendant and this bunch of rice ears happened to be placed together.

As a result, the jade pendant suddenly emitted a golden light that was ten times brighter than when it was in his hand! It almost blinded his eyes.

It was not until then that Jiang Li realized that it was his own shortsightedness that caused the pearl to be covered in dust.

In ancient times, Shennong, the Emperor of Earth, invented slash-and-burn farming. The golden ears of rice were a major milestone for ancient humans to enter the agricultural age.

It grows one season per day and one bushel per plant. It once saved countless lives in ancient times.

After consumption, it can strengthen the body and improve physical fitness, allowing the congenitally weak human race to compete with many powerful races in the prehistoric continent and occupy a place.

It is an important part of Shennong's great achievements. This string of golden rice ears has been passed down from generation to generation in Shennong's lineage until it reached the hands of the last human emperor, and was finally obtained by Jiang Li.

Its own function is secondary; the merits condensed on it are the most important thing.

King Zhou placed this item on the first thousand steps, which was the easiest to reach. It was not because it was not important. Instead, it was because it was too important. He was afraid that future generations would not be able to obtain it, so he deliberately lowered the difficulty.

Moreover, this mid-grade earth-level rice means that every grain of rice in it is of mid-grade earth-level quality.

Jiang Li caught the golden rice ear, picked a rice grain from it and put it into his mouth and swallowed it.

A rich aroma of rice filled the air.

On Jiang Li's golden elixir, the sixty-seventh crack immediately spread from the beginning to the end.

Then came the second and third golden rice. Before Jiang Li took each golden rice, the golden lines on his golden pill would crack a little more.

The power of merit entwined with Jiang Li also became increasingly strong and vigorous.

At the entrance of the thirty-third golden rice, the purple golden elixir suspended above Jiang Li's head was already evenly covered with ninety-nine cracks.

Finally, it exploded with a bang and scattered into a sky full of spiritual light.

And in the spiritual light, one can vaguely see a crystal clear Nascent Soul sitting cross-legged in it.

Only when the scattered spiritual light gathered again could Jiang Li see the appearance of his Nascent Soul clearly.

That Yuanying had three heads on its neck, one with kind eyebrows, one with fierce and angry eyes, and one with no sadness or joy, all three faces looked like Jiang Li.

And below him, he had eight arms growing from his back. The left four arms held the pale cold flames of ghost lanterns, while the right four arms held the golden sacred fire of Suiren.

Under the Nascent Soul sat a black and white lotus pedestal, with a roaring real dragon with black scales and five claws coiled around its body. Behind it was a Nine Netherworld tree, which spread out its shade to protect it from wind and rain.

This Nascent Soul was very different from the ones Jiang Li had seen before.

The Nascent Soul of an ordinary cultivator generally looks like a jade doll.

The more profound your cultivation is, the more transparent and pure your Nascent Soul will be.

If one uses any unorthodox methods or practices any magic techniques, the Nascent Soul will develop some black or purple spots, or cracks and deformities.

In some records, Jiang Li had also heard of powerful Nascent Souls such as the Nine-Colored Nascent Soul.

But a Nascent Soul like Jiang Li, with three heads and eight arms and all kinds of accompanying "equipment", is truly unheard of.

Never mind. Anyway, these three heads and eight arms are not deformed. On the contrary, they look very harmonious. There is no harm in that.

He glanced at his own panel.

The gain status of [Superior Merit Blessing] in the above item has replaced [Medium Merit Blessing].

In order to break through to the Nascent Soul level, Jiang Li ate thirty-three grains of golden rice.

The power of merit was something that could not be obtained simply by eating it. But because of the special golden elixir and the opportunity of breakthrough, he obtained the merit from the golden rice, which upgraded his blessing status again.

This is another unexpected surprise.

The power of merit can not only drive the Suiren fire, but also affect every aspect of Jiang Li at all times.

With such a level of merit, I am afraid he will definitely pick up spirit stones every time he goes out in the future.

With a wave of his hand, the Nascent Soul floating above his head immediately floated in front of Jiang Li.

His eyes were looking at his Nascent Soul, and the Nascent Soul's three heads and six pairs of eyes were also looking at his physical body at the same time.

Looking at oneself is a more wonderful feeling than looking at a parallel consciousness.

"It's just that I'm naked, and I always feel a little ashamed."

Looking at the Nascent Soul that looked exactly like him, Jiang Li suddenly complained. The three heads of the Nascent Soul also nodded in agreement.

Just when he was planning to study the changes brought about by the Nascent Soul breakthrough.

The round room he was in suddenly began to vibrate.

The densely packed words engraved on the floor, walls and even the dome of the circular room, just like the words on the stone door at that time, began to climb and move automatically.

They climbed onto Jiang Li's body one after another, but this time the words were not aimed at Jiang Li's body.

As these inscriptions of merit poured in, countless tiny characters, smaller than mites, began to appear on his Nascent Soul.

His Nascent Soul began to turn black from head to toe.

This... What he said just now meant that it was shameful for Yuanying to be naked, not that he had no tattoos.

Jiang Li was practicing the Beast Blood Atlas and already had a body full of tattoos.

Now it seems that the Nascent Soul that has just been born clean and pure will soon be more social than him.

The guardian object in the ruins has been taken away by Jiang Li. These merit inscriptions should have been absorbed by the Dharma-Ending Spirit Pearl and continue to be its source of energy.

However, the power of merit attracted each other, and these ancient inscriptions that were about to move were attracted by Jiang Li's Yuanying and were intercepted midway.

Perhaps, the [Superior Merit Blessing] that Jiang Li had just obtained also played an important role in this.

However, this round room is a huge space that can hold ten football games at the same time. Although each character engraved on it is smaller than the palm of your hand, the total number of characters easily exceeds tens of millions.

Jiang Li’s three-headed Nascent Soul quickly climbed up the densely packed black spots.

The originally crystal clear surface was covered by tens of millions of words, and it looked almost pitch black at first glance.

You have to have extremely good eyesight to be able to see the extremely tiny words written on it.

It gave his Nascent Soul an extra special ability, the ability to become invisible at night.

Well, although it is a little dark, the benefits are also huge.

To others, the Nascent Soul must be the fatal weakness.

But with the protection of these merit inscriptions, Jiang Li's Nascent Soul may become the most defensive part of his entire body in the future.

The last merit inscription disappeared, and some changes occurred on the entire underwater island.

The ground around them began to shake.

Looking up, a huge crack appeared on the round dome, and it was still spreading outward.

This place looks like it's about to collapse.

The previous battle between Chiyou Armor and Gu Heitianchou had already disrupted the strata of this underwater island.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

At that time, with the support of these inscriptions of merit, it didn't seem like a big deal.

Now that all these inscriptions have been taken away by Jiang Li, this round room has naturally turned back into an ordinary underground stone chamber.

Unable to support the broken strata any longer, the underwater island is on the verge of collapse.

Jiang Li retracted his Nascent Soul, and a faint green light flashed on his body. His entire body had transformed into a tree root, which flexibly drilled into the stone surface under his feet.

Previously he needed the assistance of Jiuyou's clone to perform the Jiuyou escape technique, but now he can use it on his own with ease.

Even the hard rock seemed as fragile as tofu in front of the Nine Nether Escape Technique.

He easily pushed aside the rock layer and soon appeared on the ground.

Sure enough, the entire island was shaking, cracks and collapses were happening everywhere, and this secret realm was about to be destroyed.

The changes inside the bubble also affect the outside world.

In fact, long before Jiang Li began to break through, he had put away the realm of the Dharma Ending Age.

According to the first law of energy, energy always transfers from high to low when there is no external force.

The underwater island that is so barren that it has almost no spiritual energy is naturally the low place.

Without the influence of the Dharma Ending Realm, the spiritual energy from the outside world naturally began to transfer into the bubble.

Although this bubble barrier is strong, even an Earth Immortal-level attack cannot easily break it.

But it cannot block the natural aura that moistens everything silently.

Those outside are all experts, so they can naturally observe these abnormal flows of spiritual energy.

At that time, they wanted to report it to Gu Heitianchou immediately.

However, Shashawei suppressed the information temporarily and did not report it, on the grounds that Lord Dragon was angry and whoever appeared in front of him would be in trouble.

It was not until this time that Jiang Li put away the merit inscription that was the core of the entire secret realm, causing the underwater island to be on the verge of collapse.

From the outside, the entire bubble began to tremble, and violent earthquakes occurred in the surrounding sea area and the nearby Hualong Island.

Such a movement can no longer be concealed.

Jiang Li contacted Shashawei outside, and sure enough, Gu Heitianchou, who was recovering from his injuries, had already known about the unusual movements here.

Under his orders, Hualong Island is organizing a suicide squad to enter the bubble to investigate the situation.

Once anything unusual is discovered, all the masters of Hualong Island will come out in full force.

As the captain of the second fleet, she could not disobey the order of the Dragon Chief.

You can only delay the time as much as possible when executing it.

Jiang Li frowned and didn't leave immediately.

Instead, he flew into the air and took a glance at the entire collapsing island.

Soon he found a tilted mountain in the center of the island.

And above it, he saw a shallow pool of water and a familiar woman.

Gu Hei Jianmo, this girl is not dead yet!

You have to know that this ghost place was the site of a great battle between earthly immortals. Most Nascent Soul cultivators didn't even dare to say whether they had the qualifications to watch the battle. Yet, a mere mortal like her could still live to this day.

There was an element of luck involved, but the girl's perseverance is also truly admirable.

After knowing each other for a few days, Gu Hei Jianmo had helped him a lot.

Jiang Li didn't want to just leave the person here to die.

His figure flashed, and when he appeared again, he was already beside Gu Hei Jianmo.

The girl was in a coma, hanging on a stone spike on the sloping mountain, her whole body suspended in the air, her face as pale as paper.

After looking at the surrounding environment, Jiang Li quickly analyzed the situation.

Gu Hei Jianmo should have climbed to the top of the mountain by then, but in the aftermath of the battle between the two powerful men, the island was tilted and she almost fell off the thousand-foot cliff.

It was at the last moment that she grabbed a stone thorn growing from the mountain peak and thus avoided falling to her death.

But in that situation, she had no way of climbing back to safety, and she couldn't even hold on for long just by clinging to the stone spikes.

So the girl put her palm directly on the stone spike.

The sharp stone thorns pierced through his palm completely, and he was hanging on it.

The wound bore her entire weight, saving her life when the entire mountain tilted severely, but it also caused her to pass out from the pain.

I never thought that a seemingly weak woman could be so courageous.

Jiang Li rescued the man from the stone spikes, temporarily straightened the mountain, and then placed it next to the Hualong Pool.

The pure wood-attributed spiritual energy swept over, and the egg-sized hole on Jian Mo's palm was quickly filled with newly grown flesh and blood.

On this island, many things that are not a problem for Jiang Li may be a life-and-death ordeal in the eyes of ordinary people.

After several days of adventuring alone, including climbing a thousand-foot-high mountain by himself and being hung on stone spikes like bacon for a day and a night, Gu Hei Jianmo's body reached its limit, and he has been in a coma and unable to wake up.

Now nourished by the spiritual energy, all the fatigue and pain in her body were swept away. Jian Mo's eyelashes trembled, and she finally woke up slowly.

"Mr. Li Jiang, is that you?"

When she woke up from her coma, the first person she saw was the man in her dream.

However, for some reason, her eyes became moist after seeing Jiang Li.

"Am I really dead too?"

"I'm sorry! Mr. Li Jiang, it was Jian Mo's uselessness that caused you to lose your life."

"Sir, I have no way of repaying your kindness. Even if I become a ghost, I am willing to serve you as a slave!"

Did she think she was dead? Gu Heizhuohou had told her before that as long as she became the young master of Hualong, she could send her men to rescue Jiang Li. It was this goal that supported her and brought her all the way here.

It’s a pity that it didn’t succeed in the end.

She was sad about this.
