Chapter 915 Spiritual Treasure Fusion
While refining the pills, Ji An kept track of the time. After a quarter of an hour, he immediately became alert and released a burst of golden light to leave the small world.

He manipulated the hand seals to release the Thick Virtue Evolution Mantra and Dragon Soaring to Life, then rushed back to the small world to continue refining the elixir.

After more than ten attempts, the medicinal power of the elixir was finally completely refined.

With Yue Ling'er protecting him outside, he could stay in the small world and continue cultivating with peace of mind.

Whether it's refining corpses or taming beasts, it's all for the purpose of improving his cultivation, so he should use it when necessary.

More than half a month passed, and the divine intent of the two planting spells finally reached six hours, and water began to accumulate in the artificial lake.

At its deepest point, the water level does not exceed two feet. The spiritual energy in the water will completely dissipate and turn into ordinary water within two hours. However, this water can remain for more than two hours, which represents taking a solid step forward.

The most difficult period has passed, and everything has become beautiful. Yue Ling'er and her two beast tamers can return to the small world to rest for a whole hour every day.

Ji An calculated the consumption of magical power and adjusted the casting range to 1,000 acres, so that the central area would have a buffer zone.

On the third day after he expanded the range of his spell, the duration of the spell's power in the core area soared to twelve hours.

In the newly added areas, the retention of magical intent can also last for an hour, which is much easier than before.

He took out the prepared ordinary grass seeds and tree seeds and scattered them. With the nourishment of the spiritual rain, an oasis appeared in this barren land. The lush greenery was full of hope and foreshadowed a bright future.

On this day, Ji An was performing a spell when he suddenly felt a kind of simple and honest spiritual energy surging in his dantian. Immediately afterwards, the Five Elements Divine Mountain flew out from his dantian and transformed into a strong and sturdy man.

It was about ten feet tall, with a waist circumference of about ten feet, and looked very robust. The spiritual pressure it exuded reached the peak of the seventh level of the Nascent Soul stage.

What made him feel even closer to the fat man was that he had painted his face with colors including blue, red, yellow, white, and black, representing all five elements.

Lingbao was also dressed in a costume similar to that of a military general in Peking Opera, looking very imposing.

"It can also transform into human form?"

Ji An was very surprised, as it was rare for a magical treasure to take human form.

The burly man nodded and replied in a deep, muffled voice:

"Reporting to Master, Lingbao cannot choose its form, but it will transform into the form most suitable for our development. This form is most suitable for me because..."

He paused for a moment, then gave a simple, honest smile:
"In this form, I can maximize my combat power. I can even handle enemies at the late Nascent Soul stage. You don't need to take action. I can easily deal with them using my own methods."

Ji An raised his eyebrows and said doubtfully:

"Although you are a fourth-grade high-quality spiritual treasure, and you were made using rare materials, that's no reason for you to be arrogant, is it?"

He absolutely did not believe that a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage could be inferior to a fourth-grade high-quality spiritual treasure. Unless the enemy he was facing was seriously injured, he could not understand why the spiritual treasure was so confident.

"Hehe, my strength as an 'one person' is limited, but I can leverage others."

Ji An asked with great interest, "How can we leverage this advantage?"

He had never heard of a magical artifact that could borrow power after taking human form.

"The power of the Five Banners can be combined upon me; please, Master, bestow upon me this treasure!"

The Five Elements Divine Mountain has been tempered by the Five Directions Flags for many years, and its aura is similar to that of the five spiritual treasures, allowing it to blend together quite well.

This answer caught Ji An off guard. He summoned the Five Banners, and the sounds of dragons roaring, tigers howling, phoenixes singing, and unicorns calling filled the air.

There was no sign of these magical treasures exchanging anything; the five magical treasures were placed one after another on the back of the Five Elements Divine Mountain, like flags.

The Azure Lotus Banner is on the far left, and the Flame Banner is on the right; the Plain Cloud Banner is on the far right, and the Mysterious Origin Water Control Banner is on the left.

The spiritual pressure of the Five Elements Divine Mountain grew stronger and stronger. When the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner returned to its position in the center, the overall spiritual pressure of the spiritual treasure made Ji An feel a great sense of oppression, and even his breathing became difficult.

"This level of spiritual pressure should surpass the peak of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage! How long can you sustain this form in a full-force battle?"

Ji An was overjoyed. He really wanted to find an enemy to test just how powerful the Five Elements Divine Mountain was at this moment.

Because the spirit treasure was connected to him, the suppressing power it released had little effect on him.

The Five Elements Divine Mountain pondered carefully and replied:

"When I launch an attack, it not only consumes my stored spiritual power, but also the spiritual power of the Five Banners."

The main problem is that it's draining my energy; I estimate I can only last for half an hour.

"follow me."

After casting a spell on the remaining land, Ji An flew more than ten miles away, pointed to the open space below, and said:
"Try what you're capable of now."

The Five Elements Divine Mountain immediately flew into the air, and without any visible movement, a dense cloud of five-colored spiritual light covered an area of ​​more than ten acres.

"Master, the Five Elements Divine Light is now activated at a faster speed and covers a larger area, which is more helpful in battle."

I anticipate it will have a significant suppressive effect on cultivators at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage; however, we'll have to test it to know the exact results.

Having said that, he immediately activated his power, and a phantom image of his true form appeared behind him, crashing down with the force of a mountain. If a meteor were to strike the Earth, the entire planet would tremble, and a massive dust storm would rise up and linger for a long time.

Ji An managed to create an energy field in time to avoid being hit by the yellow sand. After the sandstorm dissipated, a circular depression of about fifty or sixty acres was formed on the ground.

The land that had been transformed, more than ten miles away, had become dusty and barren, with little greenery left.

"Very good. Judging from its power, it can indeed pose a great threat to enemies at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage."

Ji An praised him, saying that he possessed the body of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, with a physical body equivalent to a high-grade fourth-tier defensive spiritual treasure. In addition, with the hardness of metal and stone and the defense provided by the Qi and Blood Armor, he had the effect of a top-grade fourth-tier defensive spiritual treasure even without the blessing of the Five Directions Flag.

Now that the Five Elements Divine Mountain can control the Five Banners, its fighting style has undergone a complete transformation.

In a head-on battle, he could send out a combination of six magical treasures to replace himself.

For example, when attacking the Buddhist formations of the monks, the mechanical attacks can be handed over to Lingbao, while he can stay in the rear.

The light of the sun and moon weaves a web of time, and a year passes in the blink of an eye.

Ji An stood at the very center of what was once a desolate place, and with his powerful magic, he transformed it into a first-grade high-quality spiritual vein.

At this moment, he listened to the ethereal celestial music played by heaven and earth, and the radiant and colorful Xuanhuang merit energy kept shining and falling.

It landed on his head and disappeared into the Moon Palace.

It took one year and one month to completely transform 400,000 mu of sacred land, more than twice as efficient as before.

Based on past experience, the subsequent land redevelopment will become easier and take less time.

Based on this calculation, he will be able to complete two more rounds of transformation plans when he travels to Central Continent.

Thinking of this, Ji An was filled with enthusiasm. There was never too much Xuanhuang merit energy, and a large amount was needed when upgrading the grade of spiritual treasures.

Lotus Temple.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, the temple was bathed in a dim, orange-red light.

The monks in the temple hurried about, each with a solemn expression; it was an open secret that the situation was dire for them.

The main hall was shrouded in a vast twilight. The Venerable Master Jingci gazed out of the hall and sighed.
“All the karmic fires of sentient beings were activated, but none of them had a sufficient impact.”

A tip-off came back that the enemy had mobilized a massive amount of fourth-tier Bodhi Wish-Fulfilling Incense, which greatly reduced the effectiveness of the malevolent intent contained within the Karmic Fire.

His face was filled with bitterness. He never expected that they would be defeated by his own methods. What he couldn't understand was that a large number of fourth-order Bodhi trees were needed to refine the fourth-order Bodhi Ruyi Incense.

The Bodhi tree is a sacred tree to Buddhist monks, but to immortal cultivators it is just an ordinary spiritual tree with no special function. So why would any powerful force plant so many Bodhi trees?
Now that the outer Buddhist formation nodes have been eliminated one by one, defeat is only a matter of time, and this eastern expedition can already be declared a failure.

He turned his gaze to the Supreme Patriarch beside him, and asked with earnest hope:
"Junior brother, how's the situation on your end?"

Once all the temples at the outermost Buddhist array nodes are destroyed, we must begin the retreat, otherwise it might be too late.

The Pure Moon Monk King cleared his throat and smiled:
"It went very smoothly. There are many savage beasts in the Land of Desolation. These beasts would attack the temple, but after I killed a few of the most powerful giant insects, they have not been attacked again."

Five temples have now been built, forming a lotus-shaped demon-subduing formation that covers an area of ​​600,000 mu.

The barren environment in the Buddhist camp is gradually improving, and in a few years more people will be able to migrate there.

Harsh environments can better inspire the pure will within ordinary people, which is a good thing for us.

The Land of Absolute Spirits is vast, allowing them to quietly grow and expand in the future.

When the cultivators noticed them again, the Buddhist formations had already become a continuous whole, making them far more difficult to attack than they were now.

The Venerable Master Jingci's face lit up with joy. "Good! This humble monk will use all his resources to buy us as much time as possible."

However, we need to plan our retreat carefully; we mustn't let the cultivators discover our intentions.

Having a place to settle down brings endless hope. He left the Western Continent full of vigor back then, and he was unwilling to return in such a dejected manner.

The Pure Moon Monk King remained silent for a moment, then said softly:
"Necessary sacrifices are acceptable. My senior brother has gathered his trusted men together so that he can leave at any time in the future."

For those Sangharajas who frequently disagree with us, we need to strictly control information and, ideally, create discord so that they will leave on their own.

"And this humble monk will quietly relocate our most devout followers, so that we may have more resources to face future challenges."

There are conflicts of interest everywhere. Buddhist practitioners preach the emptiness of the four elements, but the allocation of resources for spiritual practice will also cause disputes.

Competition breeds various groups, because everyone wants to improve.

The Venerable Master Jingci nodded in deep agreement, "We're thinking the same thing."

　No need to wait for the third update. The boss has been keeping an eye on things at the company all day, so even though there's not much work, I don't dare to openly write.

　　The new version went live late at night, so I didn't have time to code anymore.
