Chapter 232 Subduing the Demonic Beast, Spiritual Field, Spiritual Rice
After Lu Cheng'an and the third-stage perfected green-horned antelope made their move, Shi Ningyu immediately used the Divine Jade Soul-Severing Palm, a secret technique for attacking the soul, to strike at the soul of the third-stage perfected green-horned antelope.

Shi Ningyu's spiritual power has increased significantly, which has greatly enhanced the attack power of the Divine Jade Soul-Severing Palm.

Although the Blue Horned Antelope's cultivation level was at the third-order perfect realm, its divine soul was weaker than that of a human cultivator.

His current spiritual power is not as strong as Lu Cheng'an's or Shi Ningyu's.

Therefore, after being attacked by the Divine Jade Soul-Severing Palm, a secret technique of the divine soul, this green-horned antelope at the third-order perfect realm suffered severe damage to its soul.

At this moment, Shi Ningyu quickly summoned her natal magic treasure, the Divine Jade Exquisite Pagoda, and pressed it down on the body of the third-tier perfected Green Horned Antelope, intending to take it into her natal magic treasure.

Sensing the Divine Jade Pagoda pressing down on him, the blue-horned antelope let out an angry roar.

Two beams of azure light shot out from the enormous horns on his head. Runes surged within the azure light, and cracking sounds echoed as it flew, as if it were tearing apart the surrounding space.

These two beams of azure light were the Azure Divine Void Heaven Divine Light, a demonic technique mastered by this third-order perfect realm azure antelope. It was the most powerful attack method he possessed.

Although the Divine Jade Exquisite Pagoda was a mid-grade third-tier magic treasure, it still could not withstand the impact of the two beams of azure light.

With a cracking sound, the Divine Jade Pagoda was sent flying backward, and a fine crack appeared on its surface.

The Divine Jade Exquisite Pagoda was Shi Ningyu's natal magic weapon. Damage to this magic weapon immediately had a great impact on Shi Ningyu.

"court death!"

With a wave of his hand, Lu Cheng'an summoned the Seven Birds Divine Fire Fan. As the magic weapon was activated, a ball of cyan-gold flames surged out, instantly engulfing the body of the third-tier perfected cyan-horned antelope.

At the same time, Lu Cheng'an struck out with his palm, using the minor divine power of the Myriad Flames Burning Heaven Palm to strike the body of the third-stage perfected Green Horned Antelope.

The fiery red palm print was covered with dense flame runes, and these runes surged with rich spiritual flames and fire evil. Once struck by this palm print, these fire evil and spiritual flames would rapidly enter the enemy's body.

Just as the third-stage perfected Azure Horned Antelope was about to activate the Azure God Void Heaven Divine Light to resist, he felt a violent pain in his soul, rendering him completely powerless to use the Azure God Void Heaven Divine Light, this demonic technique.

This is because his soul was severely injured by Shi Ningyu's Divine Jade Soul-Severing Palm. Once a cultivator's soul is injured, it becomes very difficult to activate spells and magical artifacts.

In that instant, the Seven Birds Divine Fire Fan and the Myriad Flames Burning Heaven Palm simultaneously struck the body of the third-tier perfected Azure Horned Antelope.

Although this Tier 3 Perfected Green Horned Antelope possessed formidable physical strength, it was still unable to withstand Lu Cheng'an's two powerful attacks and was instantly struck with extremely serious injuries.

"Ningyu, how are you doing now?"

After severely injuring the third-tier perfected green-horned antelope, Lu Cheng'an flew to Shi Ningyu's side and inquired about her condition.

"Brother An, I'm fine. Let's immediately use the Taiyuan Demon Control Soul Spell to subdue this third-tier perfected Green Horned Antelope!" Shi Ningyu said in a deep voice.

As Shi Ningyu spoke, she unleashed the Jade Soul Immortal Light, a minor divine power, and struck the body of the third-tier perfected green-horned antelope.

Shi Ningyu has been cultivating the Jade Soul Immortal Light, a minor divine ability, for a long time. Although she has excellent comprehension, she has only managed to cultivate this minor divine ability to the Great Perfection level so far.

Lu Cheng'an's ability to cultivate minor divine abilities such as the Myriad Flames Burning Heaven Palm to perfection in such a short time is not only related to his own comprehension, but also has a great deal to do with the panel.

If the third-tier perfected blue-horned antelope had not been injured, Shi Ningyu's Jade Soul Immortal Light would not have caused it much harm.

However, this third-tier perfected blue-horned antelope was completely unable to withstand the attack of the Jade Soul Immortal Light, and in an instant, its body was transformed into a jade statue.

However, this situation cannot last long. The strength of this third-tier perfected blue-horned antelope is too great, and it will not be long before the power of the Jade Soul Immortal Light is neutralized.

The instant the perfected third-tier blue-horned antelope was transformed into a jade statue, Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu did not waste any time and immediately used the Taiyuan Demon Control Soul Secret Spell to invade his soul.

Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu had previously experimented with second-tier demonic beasts, and with their renewed understanding of the incantation during their dual cultivation, the two of them were now able to cast the Taiyuan Demon Control Soul Secret Incantation together very smoothly.

The incantation seal of the Taiyuan Demon Control Soul Secret Spell quickly condensed and took shape in the soul of the third-stage perfected Green Horned Antelope, encompassing his entire soul.

As long as Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu activate the power of this curse seal, they can subject this third-tier perfected green-horned antelope to extremely painful torment until its soul is completely destroyed.

Lu Cheng'an slightly activated the power of the curse seal, and the third-tier perfected blue-horned antelope immediately let out a shrill scream.

"Lead your flock of sheep to submit to me, or I will make you suffer the same pain you have endured before!"

Lu Cheng'an secretly transmitted his voice to the third-stage perfected Green Horned Antelope, and then activated the power of the curse seal again.

"If you submit to me, I can guarantee that I will not harm your lives; otherwise, you will all die here today!"

While activating the Taiyuan Demon Control Soul Seal to inflict extreme torment on the third-stage perfected Green Horned Antelope, Lu Cheng'an also verbally attacked its defenses.

The third-tier perfected blue-horned antelope let out angry roars, trying to break free from Lu Cheng'an's control, but found that its resistance was futile.

He also looked at his other five companions, whose situation was also extremely dangerous.

If they resist to the end, just as this human Golden Core cultivator said, they will all die here!

"Don't hesitate any longer. I won't give you much time to think. If you don't make a decision soon, your companions will be killed!"

The other five third-tier blue-horned antelopes were not weak, but they were no match for the Golden Core cultivators of the Spirit Gu Sect.

Especially that late-stage Tier 3 Green Horned Antelope, whose opponent was Liu Miaozhen.

After Liu Miaozhen unleashed her natal spirit Gu, the Golden Stone Gu, it was as if two cultivators at the peak of the Golden Core realm were attacking the late-stage third-tier Green Horned Antelope.

Although the late-stage Tier 3 Bluehorn Antelope is not dead yet, it has suffered very serious injuries.

This was only because Liu Miaozhen listened to Lu Cheng'an and did not go all out.

Otherwise, that late-stage Tier 3 Green Horned Antelope would have already died at her hands.

"I agree to submit, so please make them stop!" After thinking for a long time, the third-stage perfected blue-horned antelope finally made up its mind.

"Fellow Daoist Liu, please stop! I have already reached an agreement with the Azure Horned Antelope King, and they will not stop us from taking away the Blood Essence Rice here!"

Lu Cheng'an called out to stop Liu Miaozhen and the other Linggu Sect cultivators who were fighting the third-tier green-horned antelopes. Although they had some doubts, they stopped their attack. At this moment, the five third-tier green-horned antelopes immediately rushed to the side of the third-tier perfect green-horned antelope, looking at Lu Cheng'an and the others with shock and anger.

"Don't resist!"

After glancing at the third-tier perfected blue-horned antelope, Lu Cheng'an spoke in a deep voice. He then quickly cast a spell, and a ray of spiritual light surged from between his brows, instantly taking the five third-tier blue-horned antelopes into the Sky Palace.

The space inside the Sky Palace was large enough to easily accommodate the five third-tier Blue Horned Antelopes.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, what do you want to do?" Liu Miaozhen and the other Golden Core cultivators of the Spirit Gu Sect showed surprised expressions on their faces when they saw Lu Cheng'an take the five third-tier Green Horned Antelopes.

These blue antelopes were no match for them at all; if they used their full strength, these blue antelopes would all die at their hands.

The carcasses of the third-tier blue-horned antelopes are also priceless treasures, and now all of these third-tier blue-horned antelopes have been collected by Lu Cheng'an.

However, the strength displayed by Lu Cheng'an and Shi Ningyu was too formidable, especially since Shi Ningyu also possessed a powerful soul attack technique.

Liu Miaozhen sensed that Shi Ningyu was using a soul attack technique, a power that even his soul power couldn't withstand.

For this reason, even though Liu Miaozhen harbored some resentment towards Lu Cheng'an and the other person for their actions, she did not show it.

"Please forgive me, Fellow Daoist Liu and fellow Daoists, but these blue-horned antelopes have already submitted to me, so I naturally cannot harm their lives any further!"

Lu Cheng'an smiled and looked at Liu Miaozhen and the others, saying, "These green-horned antelopes have all fallen into the hands of my husband and me. As for the treasures we obtain in the ruins, I will not take too much of them. Fellow Daoists, you can rest assured about that!"

"Qinghong, you lead the way and retrieve all the treasures that have been nurtured here!"

Qinghong is the name of that perfected third-tier blue-horned antelope.

"Aside from the Blood Essence Rice, no other treasures have been nurtured here. You must have come here for the Blood Essence Rice as well!"

Qing Hong's gaze swept over Lu Cheng'an and the others, and he said in a deep voice, "I will now take you to the places where the Blood Essence Rice grows!"

The interior of the ruins is quite spacious, and the blood essence rice grows in the very center of the ruins, where the spiritual energy is most concentrated.

Blood Essence Rice grows in neatly arranged spiritual fields, each about an acre in size, and there are nearly thirty such spiritual fields within the ruins.

However, not all of these thirty spirit fields grow blood essence rice. Only thirteen spirit fields have blood essence rice growing in them, while the rest are idle.

Of the thirteen spirit fields where blood essence rice was grown, only five had relatively thriving blood essence rice, while the blood essence rice growing in the remaining spirit fields appeared somewhat malnourished.

"Did you create these spirit fields?" Liu Miaozhen was quite surprised when she saw the spirit fields. It seemed that these were not something that demonic beasts like the Green Horned Antelope could have created.

"These spiritual fields were not created by us. They grew here after we broke through to the third level of cultivation and our spiritual intelligence was fully awakened."

"This place should be a place that a major power has set up specifically for planting Blood Essence Rice. When I broke through to the third level, there were a total of ninety-nine spirit fields here, but at that time only sixty-eight spirit fields contained Blood Essence Rice."

"Nearly two thousand years have passed since then, and of those sixty-six spirit fields, only thirty remain, and thirteen of them are still capable of cultivating blood essence rice."

"The power of these thirteen spirit fields is also constantly deteriorating. In a few more years, all of these spirit fields may no longer be suitable for the growth of blood essence rice!"

Lu Cheng'an, Liu Miaozhen, and other Golden Core cultivators looked around the spirit field and could still vaguely see traces of it.

This proves that Qinghong was not lying; the spiritual fields here are gradually deteriorating and becoming unsuitable for the growth of blood essence rice.

Thinking of this, Liu Miaozhen frowned deeply.

After learning that Blood Essence Rice existed in these ruins, the Linggu Sect had been secretly searching for a way to cultivate it.

But so far there has been no progress.

Liu Miaozhen glanced at Qing Hong, and was about to ask him if he knew how to cultivate blood essence rice, but after seeing the condition of the blood essence rice in the thirteen spirit fields, she knew that asking would be useless.

These spirit fields were clearly created when the Myriad Spirits Sect established this area for planting Blood Essence Rice. The fact that Blood Essence Rice can still grow is all thanks to these spirit fields.

If Qinghong knew how to cultivate Blood Essence Rice, there would be more than just these thirteen spirit fields containing Blood Essence Rice.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, how should we distribute these Blood Essence Rice?"

Liu Miaozhen frowned and looked at Lu Cheng'an, then turned her gaze to Qing Hong: "Does this green-horned antelope still have any mature blood essence rice in its possession?"

All the blood essence rice in these thirteen spirit fields is of the second-tier superior grade, and they are not yet mature.

Successfully transplanting these blood-seed rice plants is no easy task.

That's why Liu Miaozhen asked Qing Hong if he still had any blood essence rice that he could cultivate. If so, they could try to breed it themselves.

“These blood essence rice plants take fifty years to mature. Apart from the unripe blood essence rice in the spirit field, all the other blood essence rice has already been consumed!” Qing Hong said.

"Take out all the storage artifacts you have and hand them over to me!" Lu Cheng'an said in a deep voice.

Qinghong looked at Lu Chengan with some surprise, not expecting Lu Chengan to make such a condition.

After all, he could tell that Lu Cheng'an and Liu Miaozhen came from two different places.

However, Qing Hongye did not think too much about it and immediately took out the storage magic item on his body and handed it to Lu Cheng'an.

Since he has already decided to submit to Lu Cheng'an, he will not go against Lu Cheng'an's wishes on such trivial matters.

Besides, he wasn't lying; he truly no longer had Blood Essence Rice.

Qinghong's storage artifact was a storage ring. After handing it over to Lu Cheng'an, he took the initiative to remove the divine sense imprint on it.

After receiving the storage ring, Lu Cheng'an handed it over to Liu Miaozhen without even looking at it.
