Chapter 598 Moonflame Soul Stone Time Remnant
Wind, gale.
The figure passed through the blue sky and white clouds, and guided by the Moon-bound Passage, it soared straight to the heavens, amidst the terrifying gales that howled and were powerful enough to split the earth and tear the sky apart.
Wang Yu felt as if he were traversing a spiderweb-like spatial trap, each step extremely difficult. It wasn't that the Moon Passage was ineffective, but rather that his mind was instinctively terrified by the sight before him.
The Ice Prison Realm is a typical world with a flat earth and a round sky.
Like a layered cake, the so-called spatial layer is the other side that completely overlaps with it, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth becomes more and more violent with each additional layer.
Until the environment completely shattered and became closely connected with the void behind it, the moon hung in the gap, surrounded by a large number of meteorites that looked like they had been eroded by wind.
With just one glance, Wang Yu could confirm that the Moonfall Eye Technique he had used was summoned from this place to help him defeat his enemies.
To be honest, it's completely different from his previous speculation.
The closer he got, the larger the moon appeared in his field of vision. The darkness of the boundless void around him made him even more tense, as if something in the darkness was watching him.
I felt a chill run down my spine involuntarily.
Wang Yu didn't know if anyone had ever landed on the moon in the Ice Prison Realm, but he was certain that without the guidance of the Moon Travel Pass, even a peak Nascent Soul cultivator would not be able to pass through such a long and dangerous Nine Heavens Gale Layer.
This trip is only to verify whether the Returning Moon Pupil Technique really has the effect it is inferred to have. Wang Yu will not leave the cage directly, and there are multiple considerations behind this.
One reason is that Wang Yu previously judged that the Boundary-Opening Divine Boat in the Void Dao Treasury would shatter 100% once it was taken out and removed from the protection of the Blessing and Disaster Relief Hall.
However, after ten years of cultivation and comprehending numerous spatial secrets,
Wang Yu suddenly felt that this thing might, perhaps... could still be repaired. It would be a pity to just throw away such a precious treasure. Even if it were broken, it could still be melted down to produce a lot of high-quality spiritual materials in the future, which would be of great value.
Secondly, the four ancestral tokens of earth, fire, water, and wind contain the inheritance of the earth ancestor, and he has already obtained two of them. He also knows that the wind ancestral token is on the body of the Heavenly Demon Lord.
In his previous battle with the prison king and spirit official Zhong Ying, he realized that the other party must have gone through a fierce battle before finding him, and he could guess the answer by extending his thinking a little.
There was a connection between the four ancestral tokens. After he killed Zhong Ying, he did not sense the aura of the Wind Ancestor Token from him. This was combined with the news that Lian Tian had gone to the Chaos Layer.
The conclusion is obvious: once he learns the secret method on the Void Stele for discerning directions in the inverted void, he can go and retrieve the Ancestral Decree at any time.
In this way, one can possess three Ancestral Decrees. With the combined effect of the complete set of treasures, finding the last Ancestral Decree of Fire will be a piece of cake. This set of treasures is priceless, so there is naturally no need to give it up.
Thirdly, there is a newly emerging hidden worry.
The stalemate between the Forest of Flesh and Blood and the Taoist Kongkong that he discovered during his journey to the moon revealed an extremely cruel hidden danger to him.
The Ancient Demon of Life!
Don't forget, he once refined a finger of an ancient demon of life in the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm, which caused him to be twisted by the "desire for health" for more than a hundred years afterward, without realizing it at all.
It wasn't until someone close to me pointed it out that I suddenly realized what was happening.
Thinking about it more carefully, even immortals cannot destroy the body of the demonic being; the only option is to seal it. The demonic being, limited by the rules to only be able to exert the power of the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, can still hold its own against a Dao-merging powerhouse.
Did he... really refine that finger?
As for the demonic contamination...
With his crystal-clear mind as a foundation, coupled with the Buddhist secret technique [Demon-Crossing Mantra], he was 100% certain that the demonic influence had been eliminated.
The problem lies with that finger. If the other party chooses to lie low, the demonic influence could return at any time. He had previously been blinded by this hidden danger and did not realize that there was any problem at all.
What about now?
Having faced the power of the Void Daoist, Wang Yu deeply understood the terror of a Dao-Merging Great Power. Looking back on his past experiences from this perspective, he realized how flawed they were.
He knew he was by no means one of the most intelligent people in the world.
It's just that I like to plan ahead. I always plan with the worst possible outcome in mind, so that everything is interconnected and I can win every battle.
Given the lawless nature of the ancient demon.
He dared not say he understood everything, but these demons were certainly just as eager as he was to escape this prison of heaven and earth.
Based on this conclusion, it becomes quite simple to deduce the other party's purpose.
Looking across the entire Ice Prison Realm, who else besides him has the ability to break free? Who else... the truth is, no one!
He was the only one with a sliver of hope of breaking free from his cage.
Based on this reasoning, the target of the enemy's lurking presence becomes very clear.
Hitch a ride!
What happens after success? Even a demon needs a lot of life energy to recover, right? In that case, his fate is self-evident.
Thinking of this, Wang Yu felt even colder.
Fortunately, he flew to the moon today and realized that the power of the ancient demon was far beyond his imagination. Moreover, even its newly formed consciousness was far more cunning than the frozen demon he knew.
He had been targeted long ago.
What Wang Yu didn't know was that Venerable Taixu and the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Sword Sect had long been corrupted by the other party because of the Heavenly Dao Jade.
Lian Tian coveted the power of the Living Demon and wanted to use it to break the rules and advance to the Void Refinement Realm. Within this scheme, can Lian Tian's Dao truly resolve the Living Demon's problem? The conclusion is... no!
Therefore.
Every Nascent Soul cultivator in the Ice Prison Realm had actually been caught up in the Demon's conspiracy long ago, but they all failed due to various problems, leaving only him behind.
If you think about it more carefully, it becomes even more terrifying.
The method by which Xie Xie'an, this newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivator, resolved the demonic contamination remains a mystery. According to him, he cultivated in the desolate ancient plains and gradually resolved the demonic contamination.
Is this person a pawn of the Ancient Demon of Slaughter?
The only two Nascent Soul cultivators in the Ice Prison Realm had long become living rafts for the ancient demons to try to break free of their cages, and whether they were aware of it or not, they were powerless to stop it.
The difference in strength is too great!
Therefore.
Wang Yuming was about to land on the moon, but he still didn't feel the excitement of breaking free from his cage; he only felt cold all over.
As for his physical body undergoing reconstruction...
The problem is that the source is still the essence blood he separated. He has no doubt that the ancient demon has the ability to lurk in the original essence blood.
The first two reasons can be attributed to being unwilling to part with resources and choosing to be greedy. The third reason is something that was only just realized, and there is also a fourth reason.
Although Wang Yu verbally believed that it was impossible for an immortal to pay attention to him.
However, the existence of the Ice Prison is inherently related to the immortals' schemes. If he doesn't leave, everything will be fine, but once he is able to break free of the prison, it's hard to guarantee that the other party won't stop him.
Furthermore, Yan Ling's departure using the Wutong Immortal Tree, along with the disappearance of such a large group of people, inevitably attracted the attention of the immortals.
The risk of him illegally crossing the border is extremely high.
Therefore, before truly leaving, he must master the Jade Void Glazed Wall, a secret method that conceals heavenly secrets and cause and effect, which the Nine Tribulations Hermit intends to use to deal with the Purple-Eyed Immortal.
That would also be of some help to him.
This is the fourth reason, and also the core reason why Wang Yu inherited the karma of the Nine Tribulations Hermit. In conclusion...
Trying to use Guiyue to locate other worlds with Taiyin Star projection and attempt to leave is absolutely not advisable.
Moreover, after realizing the demon's scheme.
He might have to find a way to meet the demon, bring him into the open, and strike a deal.
It is too difficult for the weak and the strong to reach a deal.
He needs to find a way to exploit the demon's weakness and bring both sides to the same level so that a deal can be reached.
After a brainstorming session.
Wang Yu quickly regained his composure and tried to find humor in the situation.
"If the Spirit Slave can survive the initial stage, surely the Nascent Soul stage can't survive it?"
As the surging thoughts gradually subsided.
Wang Yu's attention shifted as he got closer to the moon, until he finally landed on this place that perhaps no one had ever set foot on before, and he was filled with awe.
The grayish-white lunar soil resembled grains of sand or dust.
Despite the extremely low temperatures, no ice crystals were visible. Moon-white flames burned in the craters, and irregular black stone pillars rose from the lunar soil.
In the distance, the canopy of a huge osmanthus tree can still be seen.
As the passage to the moon gradually dissipated, the power belonging to the Taiyin Star fell silent once more. Wang Yu quickly arrived at a depression, his face filled with barely concealed excitement.
Those clusters of moon-white flames made it difficult for him to remain calm.
"The legendary Taiyin Fire, the flame representing the concept of Taiyin, actually has so many of them."
This thing, although restricted by the rules of immortals.
The grade can only grow to the peak of the fifth rank, but the fact that they are everywhere is a rare treasure.
Wang Yu had no intention of refining it into his own fire seed.
Instead, he took out his natal spiritual treasure, the Thirty-Six Grade Blood Lotus Furnace, which has thirty-six flame spaces that can only store and place the spiritual flames of heaven and earth.
Absorb the essence of all fires and cultivate the spiritual treasure and divine power of the One Qi Demon Flame!
This absorption and refining is not fusion, but rather the absorption of nutrients to grow itself, so it does not have many requirements on the nature and attributes of the flame.
As long as it's a flame, whether it's a sourceless fire or a sourced fire, the meaning is the same.
These yin fires have existed in this place for countless years.
Both its grade and quality are at the pinnacle of the world, making it an absolute top-tier treasure for cultivating a Qi Demon Flame. No wonder he was excited.
"--receive!"
With a single hand gesture, the Blood Lotus Furnace rapidly unfolded its petals of bone lotus, transforming into a mountain-like form that was inverted and placed above the sky, with the Taiyin Fire surging forth in response.
Strands of fire flew out from the pit and all flowed into the Thirty-Six Grade Blood Lotus Furnace. Starting from the bottom bone lotus petals, they gradually turned into a moon-white, jade-like color, revealing full moon patterns.
The aura of his natal magic weapon began to surge.
Once the first lotus petal's interior space was filled, the second lotus petal began to hold more Yin Fire. As time passed, when all the flames on the moon's surface were absorbed, they filled all the lotus petal spaces.
The thirty-six bone lotus petals made a crackling sound as they opened and closed repeatedly, eventually gathering a large amount of grayish-white Qi in the center of the treasure furnace.
With a loud bang.
The grayish-white Qi Demon Flame was truly born and began to absorb a large amount of flame essence, integrating the concept of Taiyin into itself in a way that was as all-encompassing as the ocean.
When refining any kind of Yin material in the future, it will have a very fast speed, similar to a targeted bonus.
Once the Yin Fire in the thirty-six lotus petal spaces is completely absorbed, this natal spiritual treasure will be able to directly advance to the fifth-tier top grade, surpassing Wang Yu's cultivation level, and its foundation will be extremely profound.
Even after advancing to the sixth rank, there's no need to fill it with more types of flames; you only need to fill it with corpse-type materials, which is much more convenient.
"What a bumper harvest!"
The joy of the harvest shattered all of Wang Yu's previous unease, and the Taiyin Fire was only the beginning. The moon, which had been untouched for countless years, had truly nurtured too many treasures.
We arrived at the base of that irregular black stone pillar.
Wang Yu's eyes were filled with amazement.
"The Taiyin Soul Stone is a top-grade treasure that assists in the cultivation of the primordial spirit. Although it is a fifth-order item, in terms of scarcity, it is the most precious among fifth-order spiritual items."
This single stone pillar weighs several hundred kilograms.
The ground is covered with Taiyin Soul Stones, which must weigh at least ten thousand tons.
It was far more valuable than his accumulated wealth over the years. Such a treasure could be used to refine primordial spirit treasures, as well as to create meditation cushions, quiet rooms, array flags, and so on to aid cultivation.
It will definitely help him rapidly strengthen his primordial spirit.
When the primordial spirit becomes stronger, one's perception of heaven and earth and all things will be more outstanding. In other words, it can also accelerate one's understanding of the four realms of artistic conception.
Furthermore, the Taiyin Soul Stone is highly compatible with the power of the Evil Ghost Path, making it an excellent material that can serve as a carrier of that power. It would be even more suitable to use it as the basis to recreate the lost Soul Sword from back then.
"The Fire of Taiyin, the Soul Stone of Taiyin..."
These two gains alone made the trip worthwhile, but there were many more treasures waiting for Wang Yu to discover on the moon.
As his divine sense expanded, Wang Yu happily picked up the treasures.
"Moonlight Cold Crystal, a top-grade material that embodies the essence of the Frosty Moon."
"Gui Ming Lan Jin, a top-grade cold and yin mineral material, can be used to refine powerful and offensive treasures."
"Whoa... a fragment of the lunar core!"
Wang Yu had obtained this thing before from the Ancient Beast Ancestral Mountain. It was of great use in cultivating the Taiyin Nether Eye, and it is no exception now. It should be able to help him master this sixth-order modified eye technique within a dozen years.
The situation of gold being everywhere lasted for a long time.
He didn't even let go of some fourth-tier spiritual items, after all, Wang didn't have many advantages, but the fact that he had a huge number of Qiankun Rings on his person was one of his advantages.
Only when you're in charge of a household do you realize how expensive and wasteful firewood, rice, oil, and salt are!
In conclusion.
On the moon, whether picked up or mined, the vast amount of spiritual objects harvested are mostly of the yin and cold attributes, and possess a large amount of lunar energy.
Most of them are spiritual items that work on the primordial spirit.
This can be described as a wave of sudden wealth.
After recovering from the joy of finding the treasure, Wang Yu walked towards the giant osmanthus tree in the distance. The closer he got, the more he could feel a wonderful vitality.
Plants have begun to appear in the unique lunar soil environment.
Moreover, they are all spiritual plants of considerable quality.
The closer you get to the laurel tree, the more spiritual plants you find, including many low-lying laurel trees. Wang Yu once refined a precious elixir, and one of its main ingredients was this extremely rare laurel leaf.
He swept through the area like a bandit passing by, with the force of an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
No spiritual creatures were spared.
"Laurel leaves, jade dew nectar, moon-shine fairy grass, starlight moon essence flower..."
There were so many that he was overwhelmed.
Even the Sea Heart Ring, whose internal space had been expanded and upgraded multiple times, was filled to the brim. This unprecedented wealth meant that even if he went to the Upper Realm, these resources would be enough for him to cultivate to the Void Refinement stage.
Until he actually arrived directly beneath that giant laurel.
He exclaimed in surprise.
"Is this...an illusion?"
