Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 442: The Essence of Illusion, the Mark of the Wood God

"These illusions appear without any pattern. One moment it might be a demonic cave filled with demonic energy and rampant demons, and the next moment it might be a world of green grass and vibrant vegetation..."

"Besides some established scenes, only the illusions from the Demon Cave period show the demon's actions. Aside from the growth of plants in the Ancient Tree Secret Realm, there are no noticeable changes. It's basically a fixed scene. So far, no valuable information has been discovered..."

The former site of the secret magic cave.

Luo Feibai summarized to Li Ye what he had seen and heard during his time guarding this place.

Although he did not make any specific discoveries, he still diligently recorded every time a phantom appeared.

Li Ye nodded, purple light appeared in his eyes, and he looked around.

After so many years of training, his eyes have become able to detect all traces of spiritual energy and see through the truth.

Even when the void changes, its essence can often be seen, allowing for accurate judgment.

But this time, everything Li Ye saw was blurry, and the space was constantly rippled, but it was not clear.

"What kind of structure is this..."

He let out a light exclamation, and his magic power surged into his eyes, pushing it to the limit.

His eyes turned completely pure purple, and the blur finally became clearer, and Li Ye's face showed even more surprise.

The waves in the space were colorful, and it seemed that various vague information was surging out from the void, but most of them were unstable and dissipated directly, making it impossible to identify them.

Only a part is relatively clear, and it combines with the spiritual energy to turn into a concrete shadow that appears outside and can be seen by people.

The fact that some information was so firmly engraved in the void might be the result of the long-term effects of the Void Tree Realm...

A guess flashed through Li Ye's mind.

Now that he had seen some of the reality of the illusion, he had a clear idea of the strangeness of the place.

Ever since the Void Tree existed here, the boundary power it emitted has been affecting this piece of void all the time. Not to mention that it also absorbed the power of the descent channel in the future, it forcibly opened up a stable void environment here, and the traces left by this were even more profound.

However, in this situation, since the destruction of the secret realm, with the normal evolution of space, most of them will be gradually wiped out.

But now, the void turmoil that affected the entire southern border forced these traces out from the stable void environment, which not only accelerated their disappearance but also allowed them to reappear in the eyes of outsiders.

"And in this case, there's a good chance that traces of the Wood God Sect's cultivators will appear..."

He thought with great delight.

Since these information traces appeared under the influence of the Void Realm Tree, the more powerful one is, the deeper the traces of the Void Realm Tree's imprint will be.

The frequent illusions of the demons' actions, which reappeared as they did in the past, were the deep traces left by their forced contamination of the secret realm.

Previously, there had been a secret ancient tree realm with only flowers, plants, and trees. Perhaps this was proof that the deep imprint was constantly emerging...

In this way, in addition to the demons who have brought great changes to this place, the resonance between the Wood God Art and the Sky Realm Tree is also very deep, and perhaps the mark left on it is even more profound.

As these information imprints continue to turn over, Li Ye can always wait until the ancient secrets reappear.

Thinking of this.

The scene in front of Li Ye suddenly changed, and the illusion reappeared.

Luo Feibai's expression changed slightly as he looked at her, "Mountain... Mountain Master, it's you!" Li Ye looked at him expressionlessly, his eyes flickering slightly.

The scene that appeared now was the scene when he used the Qingmu Divine Light to evolve the void characteristics of the Void Realm Tree, and knocked down and killed Wu Yuan, who was blessed by the Void Realm Mother Tree and used teleportation at will, with one blow.

In that battle, Luo Feibai, the chief steward of Pingyang Mountain, naturally did not participate in it. He just guarded the rear and heard others talk about the powerful supernatural powers of the mountain master after the battle.

Even though he had already seen the scene where Li Ye subdued the Green Bull Demon King with his great magical powers, he still felt a surge of emotion when he saw Li Ye beheading the demon leader Wu Yuan.

Then he subconsciously compared the Li Ye of the past with himself now, hundreds of years later, and was suddenly shocked.

Apart from the aura being more powerful and inoffensive, the mountain master's appearance had not changed at all. He still had the same unrestrained demeanor of a jade-like young man full of vitality!
Luo Feibai touched his slightly gray temples. The mountain master still looked the same as when he first met him at Chang Cuifeng, but he had already looked old.

In fact, if the mountain master had not bestowed upon him the third-level demon pill to help him create the fake pill, he would have turned into a handful of dirt long ago!

Perhaps only someone as brilliant as the Mountain Master can truly make continuous progress in this path of cultivation and grasp the secret of immortality...

Li Ye did not notice the sighs in the hearts of his subordinates, as his mind was completely attracted by his own figure.

This is not narcissism, but a confirmation!
From what his spiritual eyes saw, the person who left the most profound trace in this illusion was himself!
This was especially true for him who was pretending to be his own puppet, and himself who was lurking nearby and only showed his presence when he took action!
With a slight smile on his lips, Li Ye casually threw a jade bottle to Luo Feibai.

"After all your hard work, you can use this to replenish yourself... Perhaps it can make up for the loss of the fake elixir's lifespan, which is slightly lower than that of the real golden elixir, and bring you to a full 500 years of lifespan. If it doesn't work out, it will only benefit you and won't harm you in the slightest."

"Thank you, Mountain Master, for your generous gift!"

Luo Baifei bowed deeply.

As a fake pill, his cultivation level could not improve at all, and his biggest worry was his own lifespan.

Just now Luo Feibai was still lamenting the passing of time and his own aging, but in the next moment Li Ye came up with a way to make up for it. How could he not be excited!
"I will stay here for a while. You should return to the mountains and practice in seclusion. I will explain the results in detail when I return."

Li Ye withdrew his gaze from the illusion, waved his hand, and used his magic power to help him up.

"...But how can you, the Lord of this desolate mountain, be without servants and orders?"

Luo Feibai was a little hesitant.

"You're as good at handling things as always!"

Li Ye laughed and nudged him a few times. Luo Feibai also laughed.

"Go ahead! This ant nest will return to the mountaintop on its own once you get back. It's in turmoil right now, so taking it with you will be considered an escort."

Li Ye shook his sleeves.

Only then did Luo Feibai stop talking, bowed, and left happily.

Watching him leave, Li Ye's eyes moved slightly.

After all, Fake Dan's cultivation level could not improve at all, and the lifespan of the six Fake Dans in the mountain would eventually come to an end. This was all he could do.

Time flies...When the life span of the elderly people around them comes to an end, I am afraid that I will not have many old friends in this world!
A thought flashed through his mind, and his attention returned to the illusion. He threw off his robe, sat down on the ground, and began to sit and wait.
