Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 260: Counterattack on the Demons
His eyes fell on age again, and Li Ye's heart moved slightly.

Who could have imagined that a mere Lingnong disciple of the Zixuan Sect could reach the Golden Core level at such a young age of 72 and become the person standing at the top of the immortal cultivation world of the four countries.

The lifespan is even much longer than that of ordinary golden elixirs.

As the Sky Realm Tree continues to advance, its lifespan will only increase, reaching a level far beyond its peers.

"Although I really want to say that my cultivation so far, Li Ye, has been entirely due to my own efforts..."

He smiled,

“But without the panel’s assistance, even if I work hard and cultivate diligently, I’m afraid I may not be able to break through to the foundation-building stage now!”

The panel, the spiritual plants and his own hard work complement each other to make Li Ye what he is today.

In his future practice, this pattern will continue to help him reach a higher level of the Dao.

In the past few years since he was close to completing his foundation building, he had been concentrating on cultivation most of the time, and had not delved much into the various arts, so his improvement in each of them was quite limited.

Most of the experience gained from spiritual plants was invested in planting techniques and alchemy. The former was to obtain the third-level entry as soon as possible, and the latter was to perfect the golden elixir, and he still had some ideas about how to form the golden elixir.

Although he finally got the ice and fire spirit liquids, he still had not come up with a complete result in making the golden elixir. However, to some extent, it made his ideas about the method of making the golden elixir with water and fire more complete.

It's not a waste of effort.

Since he broke through the Golden Elixir stage, the Qingmu Lingguang was refined again and upgraded to the Qingmu Shenguang, which gave him the ability to absorb the essence of plants and trees and record their evolution.

Most of the spiritual essence of plants and trees accumulated in his body was fed into this divine light bit by bit.

It allows him to change into various forms in a short period of time. Just using this divine light as a common means, he can fight back and forth with Bai Gu and Fei Yu, who both possess magic weapons.

It can also be integrated into the divine thunder, serving as a temporary boost, causing its power to increase dramatically and kill the enemy.

It's really worth it to have such performance after training!
However, the focus today is still on puppetry.

"My weapon refining and talisman skills are both at the third level, and my puppetry skills have already reached the intermediate third level..."

"And my Tiangong Sutra has my natal puppet as feedback. If I weren't worried about affecting the properties of my golden elixir, I would have broken through to the third level long ago..."

"Now that I've achieved the Golden Core, it's only natural that I've reached the third level of cultivation..."

Li Ye calculated silently,

"Using a human to refine a puppet is still a third-level task. It's not only unconventional but also quite difficult... But for my current level of attainment, it shouldn't be too much of an obstacle!"

"The only problem is that Bai Gu and Fei Yu, even though their cultivation energy was completely sealed and dispersed into their bodies after their death, they are not body cultivators after all. Even if they were to cultivate human puppets, I'm afraid it would be difficult for them to even reach the lower third level..."

In other words, it may only be enough to fight against the fake Dan level at most, and it is certain that it can only fight one or two, and there is no possibility of winning.

"But fortunately, the magic skills they practiced were specialized, and the many materials left on them were also compatible, which allows us to make more modifications..."

His eyes flashed, and he stretched out his hand to brush away the various talismans stuck on Bai Gu and Fei Yu.

Start to deduce the details of the transformation based on their characteristics.

But first things first...

First, he repaired the body that was damaged by water and lightning in the previous battle!
Seeing such horrific injuries, Li Ye couldn't help but feel a headache.

“If I had known it would be so troublesome, I would have been gentler when I took action earlier…”………………

In the previous battle, when Li Ye took action against the demon cultivator for the first time, he killed the two golden elixir demons Bai Gu and Fei Yu in succession.

It can be said that the morale of the two countries' coalition forces was immediately boosted to an unprecedented level.

And his prestige as a newly promoted golden elixir in the four countries' cultivation world also surpassed that of the previous golden elixir ancestors of the four sects, making him the undisputed number one in the four countries!
After all, in the hundreds of years that they were in power, no ancestor of any sect had ever killed another Jindan warrior.

Even if they fought, the difference was mostly in how much loss one suffered, and no one had the ability to completely subdue or even kill the other.

After Bihu Sanren trained the black water carp into a third-level black dragon, he was able to achieve such strength by cooperating with it.

Unfortunately, by that time his lifespan had gradually come to an end.

The ancestors of other sects did not provoke Qiandao Water City at all, giving him a chance. He himself was meditating on the island in the middle of the lake and had no desire to take others with him.

This made Li Ye the person who broke the record.

It made him prestige unparalleled.

Even though he himself was not very interested in the title of being the number one person in this remote rural area, it did not hinder the usefulness of this reputation.

Even though there were many forces from Jing and Wu in the coalition forces of the two countries, after repelling the demon tide, the threat to their own interests immediately decreased greatly, and their vigilance was relaxed, and they lost the desire to fight again.

But you must submit to his will.

They all launched an attack to wipe out the demonic tide and restore peace to the four countries' cultivation world. They launched an attack on the demonic cultivators and demons occupying Huan and Yue countries, and started the war again.

Among them, in addition to the Zixuan Sect, a small number of Feiyu Sect and other cultivators from the Huan and Yue countries who had never defected to the demon clan.

The ones who worked the hardest were Qiandao Water City and the third-level black dragon!
Not only did he obey orders on the battlefield, he was also quite brave and worked without any laziness.

He also did his best to help Li Ye with his daily needs, and almost declared that he was willing to serve Li Ye as his master.

This kind of behavior can only be compared to the Zixuan Sect, which has more ideas and still wants to invite Li Ye back to the Zixuan Sect to worship him as the ancestor.

But it greatly ruined their good fortune.

They even treat a force that has no direct interest in them so attentively. The sincerity of their Zixuan Sect cannot be revealed at all!
Even if they tried to discuss the matter privately with Qiandao Water City, they were all rejected.

Only the third-order black dragon and Ou Cha snorted in disdain after hearing it.

How could they know the origin of Qiandao Water City and Li Ye!
It would be worthwhile to put in some effort now as long as it can bring help in the future if Qiandao Water City really cannot produce the golden elixir and encounters a disaster again!
However, although all these things greatly facilitated Li Ye's counterattack against the demons, he did not care too much about them.

As the war situation changed, the coalition forces were able to break through the border defenses of the demon cultivators, invade the Kingdom of Yue and begin to take over the land.

His two puppets were finally refined!
"Reporting to Master Li, our army is fully prepared and can now continue its advance..."

"Then let's continue!"

On the carriage, Li Ye nodded, and said again while gazing into the distance:
"Ahead is a sacred place polluted by demons. There may be demons lurking there. We should be cautious when marching..."

"If anything is wrong, report it to me immediately!"
