Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 416: Hidden dangers of Mu Kui, inheritance of Taoism

After the stimulation of the Wood Charm Gu was removed, the many strange changes in Li Ye's body subsided, and his magical aura also quickly fell back to its original state as the Wood Charm changes and the blessing of the formation disappeared.

A faint feeling of emptiness emerged from within his body, but Li Ye didn't care.

He sat down cross-legged and raised his hand to look at the skin and flesh that still had a woody feel.

"While the Wood Charm Gu is a powerful insect that directly blesses me, it's also incredibly effective when combined with the formation to elevate my cultivation to a higher realm. It's truly quite powerful... and this Gu is only a low-grade fourth-rank right now, so there's still considerable room for improvement. With more farming and harvesting, and more rituals to refine, it should become even stronger!"

He praised, but then changed the subject.
"However, there are still some risks if I use it for a long time. The longer I use it, the deeper the impact on my flesh, blood, and bones. If I exceed the time limit, my physique may be completely changed, and I may become a mountain spirit or a wood ghost!"

Li Ye expressed his judgment, but there was not much fear or dread in his eyes.

"Luckily, my physical cultivation has also reached the fourth level, and I also have a Wood Essence Spirit Body that has been upgraded... My powerful Qi and blood are enough to offset some of the side effects of this Gu transforming flesh and blood. My spirit body also has the instinct to absorb and resist this wood-transforming power. Compared to ordinary cultivators, my resistance in this regard is far, far greater!"

Most of his accumulated magical powers complement each other, and this situation is completely within Li Ye's calculations.

"However, we can pass down the Gu formula for those below the fourth level... not including the related Five Elements Spirit Gu formulas. This way, the cultivators in our sect will at least have the means to fight for their lives. Even if they do cross the line and are transformed into spirits, as long as they remain loyal, Pingyang Mountain can accommodate them without any worries..."

After many years of training and marrow cultivation, the monks' physiques are already different from those of ordinary people, and they have the possibility of changing their race through various means.

Although these poisons are dangerous, as long as one practices diligently and has a good grasp of one's magical powers, at most one will be transformed into a monster with corresponding attributes and will not lose one's life.

Only those who lack magical powers will be unable to become even a monster, and will completely turn into a strange tree, earth, stone, or other five elements and die.

Li Ye didn't consider this kind of cultivator at all... He lacked concentration and his cultivation was not good enough. He couldn't even control the poisonous insects and couldn't become a monster. So he might as well die!

"Forget it... Now that I've harvested everything, I might as well take some time to compile my Gu Dao into a book and spread it throughout the mountain in stages. This way, they'll have more methods, and even if they encounter high-level cultivators, they should be able to detect them..."

Li Ye simply thought about it.

He did not obtain the fourth-level Gu Dao inheritance. Now the Gu Dao is completely based on the various third-level inheritances he collected, and he deduced it himself, with many unique methods.

It is not easy to pass down other methods, but this Gu Dao is indeed not related to it, and the vast spiritual field provides a foundation for breeding Gu insects, so it can be passed down as Pingyang Mountain's unique Taoist tradition.

While thinking, Li Ye adjusted his breathing and used his magic power. His enhanced wood spirit body instinctively activated, quickly transforming and absorbing or expelling the wood-attributed alien power that still remained in his flesh and bones. His blood and qi surged, also promoting this process.

Not long after, Li Ye's flesh and blood were completely restored to their original state, except for the wood charm insect's aura, which was weak, so he released it and fed it to recover.

Li Ye took out the Wooden God Cauldron and weighed it for a few times, with a look of emotion on his face.

"You can sit at home and have the goods delivered to your door... Don't blame me for being ruthless!"

He took out Qingsongzi's Nascent Soul from the cauldron. The soul had already lost its consciousness, looked dim and seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

A shadow appeared in Li Ye's eyes, and waves of spiritual fluctuations surged. As he raised his hand and grabbed, a large amount of spiritual energy flashing with dim light suddenly poured into the Yuanying body. After a while.

The Nascent Soul, which was struggling with a painful expression on its face, disintegrated, and the many fragments of its spirit returned to Li Ye's sea of consciousness.

He frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows. Although there was a smile on his face, he looked more thoughtful.

"Even if we unite to target the Yanshen Sect, various problems will still arise as time goes by..."

Li Ye murmured.

The joint efforts of good and evil against the Yanshen Sect have only been going on for a few decades since Li Ye broke through to the Nascent Soul stage. This may seem like a long time to ordinary people, but for the major Nascent Soul sects, this conflict may have just begun.

But even so, the conflict between good and evil cannot be completely suppressed by the external enemy, Yanshen Sect.

The conflict between Songxia Mountain and Qimo Mountain is just a microcosm of it!
Of course, this may also be due to the fact that Yanshen Sect secretly relies on its superior means to divide the good and the evil and even their own internal sects.

This may become the trigger for the next conflict between good and evil. If the Yanshen Sect is not eliminated before then, this incident will probably become a node in the Yanshen Sect's plan to gain something again and advance their plan.

However, Li Ye had never truly gained the trust of Yanshen Sect. At the time, he only had the cultivation level of Jindan. All his dealings with them were related to the things that were lurking in Yaohua Sect. It was really difficult for him to get in touch with their real plans.

However, considering that after they were forced to surface and even set up a mountain gate, they took the initiative to spread the Thousand Thoughts Divine Art and used the cultivation level of this method as a screening method to recruit disciples, their plan may affect the entire southern Xinjiang.

Even if Li Ye hides in these four countries, he may not be able to stay out of the matter and protect himself!
"That's the problem... I can't just rush over and work like a slave for them. I might even be used as potential food. But the constant lack of key intelligence is also a real problem!"

Li Ye shook his head and complained, feeling a little numb in his heart.

But he can still farm peacefully now, and there is still room for improvement in his strength. It is not yet time for him to come out and get involved in the situation of the countries in southern Xinjiang. He can only pay more attention to the external situation in the future and respond as soon as possible.

As for now... he has to get all the spoils from killing the two Yuanyings first!

………………

Shortly after.

Suddenly, a strange thing happened in the southern Xinjiang countries.

Faced with repeated urging from the alliance, orders were issued to drive them to respond to a battlefield against the Yanshen Sect. The Yuanying Sect Songxia Mountain, which had been silent for some time, collapsed overnight. The two elders of Songxia disappeared, and the sect's treasure house was swept clean.

This caused an uproar in all countries, and all the sects in the alliance turned their attention to the Seven Demon Mountains. After they solemnly denied it, they directly claimed that the incident was done by the Yanshen Sect, triggering another round of war.

However, at the same time, all the Yuanying elders of the various sects of good and evil, and even the Yanshen Sect, remembered the name Li Ye of Pingyang Mountain in the Four Kingdoms...
