Cultivation begins with planting techniques

The giant tree spread its branches and leaves, and its massive body climbed higher and higher.

Above its canopy, countless golden flames rose from the branches and leaves, condensing into a great sun.

In the dim light, one could vaguely see a divine bird flapping its wings in the midst of the sun, radiating dazzling light!
However, the changes did not stop there. To the surprise of the three Nascent Soul cultivators, the setup was activated.

One after another, arrays were activated, rapidly forming arrays with the help of the domain power of the ancient tree in the void.

A surge of spiritual energy rushed in, taking the giant tree that condensed golden flames and the sun at its core, thus causing changes in heaven and earth to bless it.

The formation Li Ye set up this time only borrowed part of the power of the ancient tree in the void realm to leverage the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and amplify his combat power.

All other effects are disregarded!
The Void Realm Ancient Tree's own domain can already protect it, so it won't be easily damaged, and there's no need for him to make any further arrangements.

What he needs is to deter and impress the invaders, and buy them time; in this case, combat strength is paramount!
Originally, the transformation of the Burning Sun Wood made Li Ye the strongest in combat among the three spiritual roots of heaven and earth. Even though the transformation brought about by the level 20 transformation only barely brought him to the threshold of the Nascent Soul stage, it was still extraordinary.

Now, with the support of the grand formation, it has undergone a qualitative change, almost reaching the mid-stage of the fourth rank.

Besides this grand formation, he even had supernatural powers like [Borrowing the Laws of Nature] that he hadn't yet used.

Even if the surrounding environment is slightly worse, which may weaken this method, its amplification effect should not be weaker than the large array he set up. Therefore, he will definitely have the combat power of a mid-stage fourth rank.

For the time being, the increased combat power from using the grand formation is sufficient.

It might not be enough to deal with others, but it would be enough to crush these two old devils in a battle!

boom!
Just as Ye Wangchuan and the Yin Corpse Demon's expressions changed drastically and they were about to dodge, the tree trunk trembled, and the brilliant sunlight shone brightly.

Even though the majestic fire of the sun had not yet touched them, it still made the two old demons feel as if they were being burned alive, with blood and black smoke billowing from their bodies, as if they had encountered their natural enemy!
Immediately afterwards, countless tiny, needle-like, intense, and sharp golden rays of sunlight surged forth.

The dense array of beams, resembling condensed rays of light, trailed trails of flame, directly striking the two old demons.

too fast!
It was only a moment after Li Ye suddenly transformed into a giant tree, raised a great sun, and unleashed such divine power.

The three Nascent Soul cultivators, who didn't take Li Ye seriously at all, didn't even try to dodge first.

By the time they truly realized the terrifying power of its attack, the golden rays of the sun were already upon them, leaving them with no way to dodge!
Hua Hua Hua——

Roar!
Beneath the dazzling golden light, the sound of surging waves arose suddenly, and a sea of ​​blood surged and swept upwards.

There were also dark, sinister creatures spreading out, with two frost-white bodies, wearing armor, and having emerald green eyes, appearing.

Dangdang Dangdang!
The next moment, golden light descended, instantly enveloping it.

Then came a shrill cry, as if thousands of vengeful spirits were screaming at the same time.

The sea of ​​blood evaporated, and the vengeful spirits vanished.

The corpse's body was riddled with countless holes, with remnants of golden flames inside, showing immense damage even in a single encounter.

Ye Wangchuan and the Yin Corpse Demon hastily retreated, both with grim expressions, looking at the giant tree that condensed the illusory sun, their eyes revealing a hint of fear.

If they hadn't reacted at the last moment, their bodies would have been shattered immediately had they been hit by the golden rays of the sun, given their demonic cultivation.

Even if they don't die, they'll lose most of their lives!
Even so, despite their efforts to defend themselves with their own sea of ​​blood and their own life-bound corpses, they still suffered considerable losses and damage to their very essence.

"Who the hell are you?!"

Having dodged the attack, Ye Wangchuan asked sharply.

His tone carried a hint of apprehension and disbelief.

They simply couldn't believe that the person who transformed into a giant tree and displayed such immense supernatural powers was Li Ye.

They were convinced that someone else must be impersonating Li Ye, deceiving and ambushing them!
If we don't get to the bottom of this, how can we let this go! The Yin Corpse Demon's face was gloomy. He reluctantly withdrew the two refined corpses from his body and looked at Li Ye.

The murderous intent in his eyes almost materialized!
Although he was not the target of the attack, Shi Lie, who had already retreated a distance, also had a solemn expression as he stared intently at the giant tree burning with golden flames.

Their cultivation world isn't very large. If there really were someone who possessed such supernatural abilities and could cultivate to such a level, they should have already made a name for themselves and become known to the world.

How could the three people present have no recollection of him at all?

Could this person be some old codger who emerged from some seal in the Abyss of Demons?!

However, Li Ye's face appeared on the giant tree, and he said with a faint smile, "Who else could I be but Li Ye... Fellow Daoist Ye, weren't you determined to take my life? Why are you retreating at such a great opportunity?"

Is he really Li Ye?
The Nascent Soul seedlings of the Heavenly Sword Sect are all famous for their spiritual plants and swordsmanship. When did they acquire such supernatural abilities?
Could it be that he obtained some ancient inheritance in the Abyss of Demons?!
Or perhaps, this method of transforming the spiritual roots of heaven and earth was something he obtained from this ancient tree beforehand!

Li Ye's consistent behavior once again stirred up a flurry of thoughts in the minds of the three Nascent Soul cultivators.

After witnessing his fighting prowess, I couldn't help but feel a bit greedy.

However, Li Ye has not broken through to the Nascent Soul stage. Even if he has such a wonderful technique, he certainly cannot hold on for long. With their strength, taking him down is by no means a problem!

"retreat?!"

Believing he had figured out the key, Ye Wangchuan sneered and reverted to his old devilish demeanor.

"Just because you got a little luck and ambushed us, you dare to be so arrogant? You will surely die today!"

"Hehehe! You possess such supernatural powers that you were able to injure my natal Xuan Yin Refined Corpse, so pay with your own physical body!"

The old demon of the Yin Corpse also sneered.

The two of them worked in perfect harmony.

Within the sea of ​​blood, a dark red blood blade emerged, seemingly engulfing the surrounding blood sea. In an instant, it streaked across the sky, transforming into a blood-red light that slashed directly at Li Ye.

At the same time, the Yin Corpse Demon opened its mouth and spewed out a chilling ghost fire that suddenly enveloped the two refining corpses, turning them into a ghostly green color.

This caused its combat power to surge instantly, and it roared ferociously, surrounding the giant tree wreathed in golden flames from both sides.

As long as that blood-stained blade strikes successfully, they can immediately expand their gains and capture Li Ye in one fell swoop!

At the same time, Shi Lie's eyes flickered. Although he did not intervene, he seemed quite tempted and might seize the opportunity to make a move at any moment.

However, even in the face of such an attack, Li Ye did not panic at all, and his sneer became even stronger.

whoosh-

In an instant, boundless sword energy surged from his body, merging with the great sun to unleash a devastating strike.

The Great Sun Sword Qi was almost tangible, extremely scorching, and capable of slaying demons and vanquishing evil!

However, with a flash of dazzling golden light, it instantly shattered the dark red blood blade carrying the power of the Blood Sea.

Even with undiminished momentum, it went straight for Ye Wangchuan!

Such power startled Ye Wangchuan so much that his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He let out a loud shout and tried to turn into blood and escape.

But the scorching sun caused the sea of ​​blood to evaporate and vanish instantly wherever its light touched, and the secret technique was broken before it could be fully unleashed!
The moment his body fell out of the blood, the blazing golden light entered his embrace and went straight into his chest.

"No—" (End of Chapter)
