Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 909: Refining the God-Eating Vine

A few days later, the results of the Poison Ivy Valley trial spread throughout this small spiritual state at an extremely fast speed.

In this trial, the various sects were mixed with joy and sorrow.

The biggest winner was naturally the Xuanyun Sect. Not only did it lose the fewest young disciples, but each disciple also gained the most, not to mention Ye Xuan and Huo Miao from the Back Valley.

Next was the Xianshui Sect. Their performance was stable, but that was naturally good considering the tragic situations of the other sects. Then there was the Gongkui Sect. One of their three saints who entered the Hou Valley was seriously injured and lost an arm.

Then came the Mangui Sect. Their disciples who entered the front valley for the trial did not suffer too many losses, but the two ancestors who entered the back valley never returned, including a formation master who had a high status in the sect. The loss was heavy.

……

The second to last is the Baihua Sect, the strongest sect in this state. The results of the disciples' trials in the front valley were normal, but like the Mangui Sect, all four of their strong men who entered the back valley died, including Zeng Zhilong, who was at the great sage level. The death of a strong man at the great sage level was enough to cause a sensation in this state.

Finally, and most unbelievably, was the Yinsha Sect. The losses could only be described as horrific. Not only did most of the disciples who had participated in the trials in the front valley die, but the ancestors who entered the back valley never returned, including the first ancestor Ge Zhanxiong! !

For a time, all kinds of speculations and opinions were flying around, and when someone spread the news that the Xuanyun Sect was preparing to suppress the Yinsha Sect, the vast majority of people agreed on one point of view, that is - the end of the Yinsha Sect is approaching...

In addition to the results of several trials, there was another thing that became a topic of discussion, that was the changes in the Poison Ivy Valley. However, there were many different opinions on this matter, but none of them were reliable. Some people boldly went to the valley to investigate, but returned in embarrassment. In this situation, two super strong people from other states came to this state to investigate the Poison Ivy Valley...

While the outside world was changing rapidly, Ye Xuan went into seclusion in the Xuanyun Sect.

It has been seven days since they returned to the sect. Naturally, everyone in Xuanyun Sect was delighted with the huge gains from this trial. Ye Xuan concealed the God-Devouring Vine and the Sword Embryo, and handed over half of the various spiritual materials he found in the valley to the sect. Of course, those he kept were all useful to him, and the 'trophies' he got from Ge Zhanxiong and Zeng Zhilong were not among those to be handed over.

In addition, Huo Miao also gained a lot from this trip to Hougu. After returning to the sect, he began to practice in seclusion. It will not take long for him to make a breakthrough.

Inside the cave, Ye Xuan sat cross-legged in meditation, practicing the ancient devouring technique.

Now he has reached the peak of the third level of the Holy Realm. During the trial, he thought he could advance directly to the fourth level of the Holy Realm, but he tried several times and failed every time.

Ye Xuan knew that if he forced a breakthrough, he could also advance, but he didn't, and chose to advance in a balanced way.

After advancing to the Holy Realm, it is not easy to advance to each level of cultivation. Now the people of Xuanyun Sect still think that Ye Xuan has reached the first level of the Holy Realm.

Ye Xuan concealed his cultivation level. In the Spirit Realm where powerful and mighty beings existed, Ye Xuan was extremely cautious.

Ye Xuan couldn't help but think of the young man in white. The other party's space skills were far stronger than his. If Ye Xuan hadn't used the laws of time and space and the sacred shield, he would most likely have died at the hands of the other party.

Of course, if he was forced into a corner at that time, Ye Xuan would immediately break through and advance to the fourth level of the Holy Realm.

At this time, there were several more Condensed Yuan Beads in Ye Xuan's Danhai. One of them was a green Condensed Yuan Bead that was particularly large and exuded a strong holy power. It belonged to Zeng Zhilong, who was in the Great Saint Realm.

Speaking of Zeng Zhilong, he was quite miserable. He was killed by a surprise attack by a young man in white, and Ye Xuan finally took advantage of it.

"The Holy Shield is very powerful. If it weren't for it, I would have died under the sword of that young man in white." Ye Xuan opened his eyes and thought to himself.

Although the Holy Shield is only a single defensive martial spirit, its absolute defense is truly powerful and has reached the level of a divine skill.

Ye Xuan must practice hard and reach the Great Saint Realm as soon as possible so that he can seal a new martial soul again. He is very much looking forward to it.

Of course, Ye Xuan now focused his attention on the gains from this trial.

His mind sank directly into the small world because he discovered that something strange had occurred in the small world.

In the small world, the God-Eating Vine seedling that was rooted next to the towering tree had actually grown a bit bigger in these few days!
"It seems to be absorbing the primordial wood energy that the Tongtian Tree is constantly emitting?"

Ye Xuan muttered to himself, and the next moment, he entered the small world. He sat cross-legged on the ground and observed. He felt that when every wisp of wood energy emitted by the Towering Tree was eaten by the God-Devouring Vine seedlings, the God-Devouring Vine seedlings would release a strange breath. This breath was cold and icy, extremely evil, and chaotic in color.

"The Tongtian Tree is one of the three great strange trees between heaven and earth. The wood spiritual energy it contains is the ancestor of wood. Anyone who practices wood-related magical powers will gain great benefits from getting even a little bit of it. The same goes for other wood-related spiritual objects..." Ye Xuan's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he was thinking about something.

If it were to follow normal circumstances, and the God-Eating Vine absorbed the precious tree spiritual energy between heaven and earth and replenished its essence on its own, it would probably take millions of years for it to grow.

It is like a weak child that needs to constantly absorb in order to grow and become stronger.

However, after obtaining the ancestral energy of the "Heaven-reaching Tree", the God-devouring Vine grew nearly a thousand times! These few days saved several years of time!
At this time, the God-Eating Vine was growing rapidly like bamboo shoots after the rain.

Ye Xuan felt its majestic thoughts and momentum, and only then did he realize how powerful this evil creature from the upper realm was, and how earth-shaking it was.

"If, if it really grows up, will it really devour God?" Strange thoughts turned in Ye Xuan's mind.

“It will probably take tens of thousands of years for the God Devouring Vine to grow, even with the wood energy of the Sky-reaching Tree. Even if I cultivate to the Great Saint Realm, I won’t be able to see its growth. The power of this seedling is still very weak now. I can just use it as a sacrifice to refine it into my body and use it as my own life-saving magic weapon. Otherwise, in time, I really won’t be able to control it!”

Ye Xuan took a deep breath and finally made a decision.

If this God-Eating Vine really grows up, he will definitely not be able to control it. If it grows to a certain extent, even a small world will be pierced and occupied by it.

"But refining it into your body is also a double-edged sword. It can help you fight, but it can also backfire on you."

Ye Xuan's face was solemn, he had some confidence, he had the ancient devouring art and the reincarnation martial soul, the speed of his cultivation advancement would not be slower than anyone else!

Ye Xuan is not a person who hesitates, and he does not want to give up such a thing from the upper realm.

At that moment, Ye Xuan activated the ancient devouring art and injected his devouring art holy power into the God-devouring vine seedling, in order to thoroughly refine this thing from the upper realm and use it for himself.

If he could really use this thing, it would definitely be a deadly weapon!
‘Wow! ’

As soon as the God-Devouring Vine was penetrated by Ye Xuan's unique ancient devouring art holy energy, it immediately vibrated violently and resisted.

"If you still want to absorb the ancestral wood energy, then submit to me. Otherwise, I don't mind really burning you and using it to make medicine!" Ye Xuan knew that with his own cultivation level, it would be difficult to refine this evil thing from the upper realm.

As he opened his mouth to threaten, he directly ordered the Tongtian Tree to cut off the supply of wood spiritual energy to the God-Devouring Vine.

Suddenly, a golden light appeared on the God-Eating Vine, and it transformed into a blurry child's face, which said to Ye Xuan coldly, "You can subdue me if you want, but don't regret it. Once your cultivation can no longer suppress me, I will devour you, and then you will become my nourishment..."

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Become my natal treasure and let me bring you back to the world and make you a powerful figure..."
