Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 347 Swallowing marrow and bathing in evil, the body transforms!
The fact that the envoy of Yanshen Sect came to visit him did indeed disrupt Li Ye's plan to a certain extent, and his power was unfathomable, so Li Ye could not become his enemy for the time being.

However, this degree of loss of control is still within Li Ye's acceptable range.

The ability of Qiannian Yanshen Jue's split soul to possess another body and sneak in was not a problem for him. The disaster avoidance instinct brought by [Induction] was enough for him to take precautions on a whim when the soul sneaked in.

This was also the reason why Li Ye immediately sensed something was wrong when the envoy from Yanshen Sect came in the body of Xue Chou.

Through this method, he checked many monks in the mountain gate and did not find anyone who could make him feel a sense of crisis, so he felt relatively relieved.

It seems that the messenger had full confidence in the mark he had placed directly on the soul of those who practiced the Thousand Thoughts Divine Art, and he did not even do any unnecessary surveillance, thus giving Li Ye thirty years to prepare.

Li Ye naturally had corresponding means to deal with the brand.

The Great Yin-Yang Qingmu Divine Thunder has special restraints on these methods. Combined with the void changes of the Qingmu Divine Light, it can naturally completely block and shield them without damaging them.

When the need arises, Li Ye can destroy it with a thought, without worrying that it will endanger his soul and life.

His life was still in his own hands, so he acted with confidence, but there was always a sense of urgency.

After breaking through the third stage of body refining, Li Ye's practice speed did not slow down, but became faster because he obtained [Condensation of Evil] and could use the evil energy of heaven and earth to temper his body.

Later, as [Balance] was upgraded to the third level, its effect on Li Ye became more significant. It not only helped him balance yin and yang, but it actually began to have a stronger effect, causing his physique to change accordingly.

The practice of the Dragon-Tiger Dharma Body will be smoother, and all the shortcomings and omissions in the exercises will be improved with the help of these terms. In this way, there will be no more obstacles on this path.

Now that he has such an external enemy, his emphasis on physical training has increased again. With the blessing of [Balance] and the training he has done over the years, he has completely adapted to the Dragon Evil.

Even though the Mingyang spiritual essence could not keep up with the consumption, he increased the frequency of refining his body with evil spirit, thus speeding up his progress again.

Thirty years is not a long time. Li Ye devoted himself to cultivation and was not disturbed again.

And since Xue Chou was possessed by the envoy of Yanshen Sect, he has never come to Pingyang Mountain to visit him again.

Li Ye didn't know whether he was used and discarded by the messenger, or whether he was subdued by the messenger and became a member of the Yanshen Sect, so that he would not have to have any more contact with him in the future.

Li Ye is unable to confirm this matter for the time being and can only talk about it another day.

He was completely focused on his cultivation, hoping to achieve a breakthrough as quickly as possible so that he could initially gain the power to protect himself.

If Xue Chou really fell victim to the Yanshen Sect's envoy, Li Ye would take care of the Huanmo Sect for him when he had the strength left.

But if he is conquered by Yanshen Sect, it would be good if they don't become enemies in the future, and there would be no need to worry about him anymore!

…………

The time of immersion in cultivation passed faster than expected, and in this state, Li Ye's physical strength grew faster than he had expected.

Twenty-seven years later.

Li Ye let out a low roar, and his blood and energy rose like smoke billowing, forcing back the evil spirit around him, which had become much weaker. He seemed to be trying to break through his limit.

But before the blood and qi smoke could impact the formation covering the area, the red and white blood and qi circle behind Li Ye swirled, stabilizing it and returning to his body in a pure and refined state.

At the peak of the third stage of physical training, only one step away from breaking through to the fourth stage!
It had been over thirty years since he'd broken through to the middle stage, and twenty-seven years since the arrival of the Yanshen Sect's envoy. A total of just over sixty years had passed, and he'd reached a bottleneck again! In Li Ye's opinion, while this bottleneck presented certain obstacles, it didn't resemble a major realm breakthrough at all.

Even though he hasn't used any breakthrough medicine yet, his body is already stirring, with his blood and energy rushing out to break through the barrier on his own!
With such a strong body, Li Ye rarely felt any confidence and pride...

The fourth level is already within his reach!

"At this point, the evil energy here has exhausted its final value..."

Li Ye gathered all his strength and returned to normal, and used the Green Wood Divine Light to collect the Dragon Subduing Wood that had been accumulating power here for many years.

This scene relied on the blessing of many entries. Although Li Ye competed with it for the evil spirit, it finally maintained its foundation and steadily improved to a very excellent quality among the third levels.

It is not a waste to harvest at this time.

Moreover, Li Ye had no use for it for the time being, so he did not destroy its roots. With the Qingmu Divine Light protecting its vitality, it was enough to last for many years. If he could meet the Dragon Evil again in the future, he might be able to cultivate it again.

After collecting the Dragon Subduing Wood, Li Ye kept moving and cast several spells in succession to the surrounding formation.

I saw the great formation in operation, and all the effects of protection and concealment faded away, and turned into a refining effect, using the power deeply connected to the surrounding earth veins to begin to gather and condense all the evil spirits in this dragon evil land!

woohoo-

The foundation of this place is quite good. Even though it has been diluted a lot by Li Ye's consumption over the years, the accumulation in the past and the replenishment of the earth veins have enabled it to maintain a relatively stable share.

Now that the formation was in place, even the earth veins were shaken, and the source of the evil energy that was integrated with the earth veins here surged up and was pulled out by Li Ye.

I saw a large amount of evil energy surging, and I could even vaguely see the shape of a dragon beast. Then, under the gathering of the formation, all of it merged into the source of the evil energy and turned into drops of pure dragon evil, which Li Ye collected into a jade bottle.

Gollum~
After collecting the last drop, Li Ye shook the jade bottle a few times, and the sound of it filling up made him smile.

He even collected the roots, and with just a little more refinement, it would almost be of fourth-grade quality, enough to combine with Huiyang Jadeite to help him take the final step!

Without the evil spirit, this place gradually lost its specialness. It would not be long before it would turn into an ordinary desolate wasteland. After a few dozen or even hundreds of years of recovery, perhaps some ordinary plants would grow there.

………………

After returning to Pingyang Mountain, everything was ready. Li Ye opened the formation again and completely sealed off the retreat.

In front of him, pure and condensed dragon evil was churning in the pool, as if a dragon beast was evolving and roaring.

Li Ye was naked, with Huiyang Jadeite in his mouth as he stepped in.

As he took a step inside, his body turned into snow-white and crystal clear, his long black hair turned into a wildly dancing crimson, and a red and white blood ring appeared behind him, slowly flowing like a millstone.

The white dragon and the red tiger roared and rushed out, merging with the circle to form a red and white yin and yang diagram, which swept up the evil spirit and instantly submerged Li Ye's figure.

The evil spirit outside continuously impacted and tempered him, while the warmth of the chalcedony inside transformed into rolling vital energy for nourishment. Li Ye's blood and energy surged, and his flesh and blood transformed, and he took a step towards the fourth level!
