Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 923 The Five Sacred Mountains True Monarchs, Stimulated

Ji An flew ahead, his hands forming hand seals. Wherever he went, purple fiery clouds fell from the sky like a waterfall, burning everything to ashes.

In his hands, the Blazing Fire could inflict immense damage on Nascent Soul cultivators; what was mere demonic energy compared to that?

He used special methods to activate the spell, maximizing the spell's coverage while minimizing the amount of mana he used.

The magic's power is too strong; after burning everything, a huge amount of energy is still wasted, which is too wasteful and also affects the efficiency of purifying demonic energy.

However, spells have their own rules, and even if he did it deliberately, the maximum range of the Blazing Fire could only reach a little over 500 acres.

The Vermilion Bird Profound Brightness Technique was released, and a golden sun appeared in the sky, with firebirds dancing in the blazing sun and singing joyful songs.

The light and warmth of the divine will dispelled the chill brought by the demonic energy, and wherever Ji An went, it was as if the world had been transformed.

The Five Sacred Mountains True Lords led a group of magical treasures behind them. If they discovered any underground caves or mountain caves, they would descend to search for and eliminate the demons within.

He dared not put on airs in front of these magical treasures. In terms of strength, he might not be a match for any of them, even the Azure Lotus Banner, which was not good at offensive combat.

He knew perfectly well how powerful the Lord was, and the spiritual treasure that the Lord nurtured day and night was more powerful than the spiritual treasures of other cultivators.

After half an hour, the White Tiger grew impatient and sent out a mental communication:
"Little Deer, let's split into groups, it'll be more efficient."

Each of the magical treasures has the ability to purify demonic energy, so there is no need for them to act together.

The Five Sacred Mountains True Lords grinned, revealing a polite smile:

"Brother Tiger, you're right. Let's assign the areas of responsibility now."

He could only accept the nickname 'Little Deer' with resignation. Don't be fooled by the fact that the Plain Cloud Banner is a magical treasure. If a battle were to break out, he would only be able to get crushed on the ground. He couldn't afford to offend any of these transformed magical treasures.

Along the way, the most powerful magical beasts we encountered were only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, which posed no threat to us at all, so it was necessary to divide them into groups.

The Five Sacred Mountains True Lords and several magical treasures flew into the air, used the mountain peaks as reference points to allocate areas, and began to act in groups.

Two months later, Ji An found the location of the Demon Cave. He was currently in a cavern hundreds of feet underground.

The caves here have clearly been widened, and the rock walls are covered with claw marks from animals.

A black rift, more than five feet high and two feet wide, floated in the void, with demonic energy pouring in continuously.

The influx was not fast, but it was continuous.

The shape of the crack's edge is not fixed, like a candle flame flickering, giving it a twisted and eerie feel.

When the Demon Realm and the Immortal Cultivation Realm reconnect, this black rift will gradually expand until it can eventually allow a True Demon at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage to pass through.

Ji An was very curious about what the True Demon Realm was like. It represented the dark side of this world and should be very unfriendly to normal flesh and blood beings.

He pulled himself back to his senses and began to channel his magical power, his hand seals rapidly changing as he unleashed the Vermilion Bird Profound Brightness Technique.

The fire elemental energy manifested as a golden sun illuminating the dark area, burning the demonic energy into tiny black particles that fell down.

The momentum of the demonic energy rushing in was immediately stopped. Like water flowing downhill, it now turned into fire-elemental energy flowing into the True Demon Realm through the crack.

Ji An had a sudden inspiration and used his magic to make the golden sun slowly descend and approach the black crack.

Jin Yang was drawn by an invisible force field, and golden spiritual light was constantly peeled off from it and dissipated into the cracks.

This round of golden yang is the manifestation of the Bing fire spirit, but the spirit that dissipates is the Ding fire spirit.

About 15 minutes later, the black crack, like an open mouth, swallowed the golden sun, which was now only the size of a fist.

Ji An remained on guard, but nothing unusual occurred.

He shook his head slightly, no longer paying attention to the situation here, and released a golden light that seemed to leap from the ground to the surface.

With a soft whistle, the sound of metal and stone shattering echoed among the mountains, accompanied by distant roars of dragons and tigers.

Soon, the Five Sacred Mountains True Lords and several spiritual treasures arrived at their master's side.

Ji An glanced at each of the 'people' in turn and said:
"Now I have found the source of the demonic energy, you no longer need to search."

Wuyue, you can leave here and return to your sect now.

When I left Central Continent, some fellow Daoists said they would come to Western Continent to find me. If they were just saying it casually, that's fine. But if any fellow Daoists actually come looking for me, please go and inform me.

As the host, we should still fulfill our duties as the locals.

The Five Sacred Mountains True Lord nodded, suppressing his joy, and said in a deep voice:
"As ordered."

He felt very tired these days. The spirit treasures often engaged in playful sparring, but the energy they released was extremely powerful.

He was the worst of all the 'people' here, and it stung me deeply.

Ji An looked up slightly and saw that the mountains and forests had already blocked most of the setting sun.

"Let's set off early tomorrow morning. We'll go to the small world tonight to cast a spell on the spirit field before we leave."

The gold-elemental spiritual plants in the white spiritual field can only be obtained by the Five Sacred Mountains True Monarch. Gold-elemental spiritual plants are extremely rare in the cultivation world, so there are no special cultivation techniques for this type of spiritual plant.

Half an hour later, the setting sun sank into the mountains and forests, and the bright moon took its place, casting a serene glow.

At this moment, large snowflakes drifted down from the sky, but before they fell, they were transformed into rain by the divine will of the Fire Element and then quickly evaporated.

A thin mist rose above the mountains, obscuring the moonlight.

Yue Ling'er frowned slightly and turned to instruct:
"I'm going to fly to a high place to absorb the moonlight. You two be on your guard. If there's any emergency, inform the master immediately."

The moonlight was somewhat dimmed by the fog, making it unsuitable for absorption.

Big Yellow and Golden Retriever growled in unison, replying:
"As ordered."

The area within a ten-mile radius has been cleared, and now that they are inside the magic array, they will not encounter any unexpected situations.

In the gourd world, Ji An placed his hand on the forehead of the Five Sacred Mountains True Lord, repeatedly asking him to cast a spell, while he carefully sensed the flow of magical power within the other's body during the spell.

There is no metal-based planting technique in the cultivation world, but a Nascent Soul level nine cultivator can certainly try to create one, as he has sufficient foundation.

Creating low-level spells is not difficult; the challenge lies in creating spells at the Nascent Soul level.

However, he was not in a hurry. He would spend half an hour each day thinking about and experimenting with spells, and he was always able to create the spells he wanted.

By then, he would have truly become a spirit farmer without any weaknesses, and all the spirit plants would be able to grow rapidly and vigorously under his cultivation.

Ji An meticulously recorded the circulation route and vibration frequency of the magical power within the Five Sacred Mountains True Lord's body in the jade slip, then reviewed the contents once more, and said with satisfaction:
"it is okay."

We have obtained the most detailed information; the next step is to continuously try and fail.

Once the right direction is identified, creating suitable spells is only a matter of time.

He took out a fourth-grade superior Bodhi fruit. "This is the last fourth-grade spiritual fruit. If you want to eat a spiritual fruit of this grade again, you will have to wait thirty years."

After the Gathering Yuan Tree was upgraded to the fourth-tier top-grade, the grades of many fruit-bearing spirit trees also improved one after another, and the Calabash World truly fell into a state of transition. "Thank you for the fruit, Your Majesty."

The Five Sacred Mountains True Lord happily accepted the spiritual fruit and carefully stored it in the Void Cave Stone, his small deer antlers on his forehead shimmering with a crystal light.

He had been feeling somewhat depressed these past two months, which prompted him to make up his mind to improve his cultivation.

The two flew back to the center of the small world, where the Five Mountains True Lord transformed into his true form and lay down under the Gathering Yuan Tree.

Staying here allows him to feel the throbbing deep within his bloodline. To be precise, the Gathering Yuan Tree is not a pure earth-elemental spiritual plant; it possesses all five elements, but the energy it displays is simply earth-elemental.

The five-colored deer also possesses all five elements, and if it stays in the gourd world for a long time, it can gain even more benefits.

Ji An and the Five Sacred Mountains True Lord were separated by the Gathering Yuan Tree and could not see each other. He lay half-reclined on the chair and took out the jade slip to study it.

At this moment, A-Yun walked over and communicated telepathically:

"Master, shall we begin excavating the spirit soil?"
Now all five spirit fields have reached the highest grade of the fourth rank, and some can be mined for the Five Elements Divine Mountain to devour.

The soil can be refined into fourth-grade top-quality spiritual soil. The excavation work has been stopped for many years. Now the other puppets are bored out of their minds, so we need to find them something to do.

Ji An pondered and said:
"Not for now. The Five Elements Divine Mountain needs too much spiritual soil of various kinds to be upgraded to the fourth-grade top-quality. Excavation will affect the improvement of the spiritual veins."

The gourd world is planted with too many high-level spiritual trees and herbs, and with his own presence, he inhales and exhales a great deal of spiritual energy every day.

If he digs the land again, the concentration of spiritual energy might affect his cultivation.

A few years ago, he decided to gradually cut down third-order spirit trees, but it had little impact on the concentration of spiritual energy. All the third-order spirit trees combined absorbed far less spiritual energy than the fourth-order spirit trees.

Ayun lowered her head and asked, "Okay, should we light the soul incense?"

As long as her master stays in the small world, she is the best servant, very good at reading people's expressions.

Ji An smiled and waved his hand, saying:

"No need for incense, just brew a pot of Enlightenment Tea."

There isn't much Soul Incense left; if we use it too quickly, we'll run out.

"Please wait a moment, Master, it will be ready soon."

Ji An began to ponder how to create magic, and a night passed.

The following day, after bidding farewell to the Five Sacred Mountains True Lords, Ji An began to perform magic for this land.

Burning purple clouds raged across the land, and the divine intent of fire filled the void.

This area, polluted by demonic energy, is far too vast, comparable in size to the gate of the Golden Spirit Sect.

He didn't have enough power to bring all the land under his spell at once; he needed to purify it piece by piece.

Fortunately, the source of the demonic energy influx has been cut off. As long as he stays here, the demonic energy in other areas will gradually thin out and dissipate.

And so, Ji An spent his days casting spells on the spirit field and his nights returning to his small world to cultivate his skills and study magic, leading a very busy and fulfilling life.

The Nine Revolutions Returning to Origin Pill he obtained from Zhongzhou was quickly consumed. Even without any pills or spiritual fruits available, his cultivation level continued to improve slowly but steadily.

Ji An always felt fortunate that although his path of cultivation was full of ups and downs, he had never encountered any major bottlenecks.

As the sun rises and sets, years pass by quietly, and ten years have gone by like a dream.

During this period, he had already purified one-third of the land shrouded in demonic energy.

Compared to when he purified the demonic veins of Yuanhe Mountain, his magical power has increased by several times, and the purification speed is much faster.

Furthermore, as time goes on and more and more land is purified, the purification process will accelerate.

On this day, the sun had just begun to shine when Ji An was casting a spell on the land. As the hand seals in his hands changed, yellow spiritual light spread across the earth, and the nourishing earth elemental energy permeated the air.

A five-colored beam of light cleaved the sky, flying in from the southeast with overwhelming force.

The Five Sacred Mountains True Lords stopped nearby, cupped their hands, and said:

"Your Majesty, cultivators from the Divine Wood Sect and Thunder Sound Pavilion of the Central Continent have come to visit us. They are led by True Monarch Azure Dragon and True Monarch Profound Cloud. Please return to your sect to receive them."

These cultivators from the Central Continent appeared polite, but there was a hint of arrogance in their eyes.

There was no other way; all the Nascent Soul cultivators who came to exchange ideas were late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. With the Lord not in the sect, no cultivator was qualified to receive them.

Ji An nodded slightly, "I'll leave immediately."

The fact that the Five Sacred Mountains True Lords arrived at this time indicates that they must have set off yesterday evening and traveled day and night.

He took the gourd-shaped stone pendant off his neck and said:

"You go into the small world, I need to focus on getting on my way."

When he flies away at top speed, his opponent absolutely cannot catch up.

The Five Sacred Mountains True Lord immediately did as instructed, extending his divine sense to touch the silver light spot in the gourd stone, and his body suddenly disappeared into the small world.

Ji An put away the pendant, activated the golden light that seemed to leap from the ground, and his body transformed into a bright ball of five-colored light.

At the beginning of Shenshi (3-5 PM), as darkness began to fall, Ji An returned to his sect.

He arrived at Chaoyang Peak and entered the Wuji Hall. Lin Lan immediately greeted him and said:

“Master, we’ve finally been waiting for you to return. Those cultivators from the Central Continent are very powerful, and being around them is torture.”

The spiritual pressure that the Nascent Soul cultivator inadvertently released caused her great suffering, and the time spent receiving him felt like an eternity.

Ji An smiled, coughed once, and said reassuringly:
"All your troubles are caused by insufficient cultivation. If you can break through to the Nascent Soul stage, you can take all of this lightly."

Lin Lan scratched her head, "Breaking through to a higher realm is the wish of every cultivator, but I feel that my talent makes it difficult to break through."

Faced with difficulties, she wanted to retreat, but if she rushed through without sufficient preparation, she would only be taken away by the lightning tribulation and turned into ashes.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Lan spoke again:

"Master, the cultivators from the Divine Wood Sect wish to meet with you privately to discuss a deal. How should you respond?"

"Let's make arrangements tonight. You can go and tell them now to take them to Crimson Flame Peak. I'll host a banquet for them."

Ji An was filled with anticipation for this transaction. As the sect most skilled in planting in the entire cultivation world, the Divine Wood Sect had accumulated nearly 100,000 years of experience. He wondered what good things they had in their hands!
He had once promised Azure Dragon True Monarch that he would treat him well, and today he brought out all the high-quality ingredients from his small world.

Tonight we will entertain the cultivators from the Shenmu Sect, and tomorrow night we will entertain the cultivators from the Leiyin Pavilion.

Lin Lan nodded, "Yes, sir. I will go and inform them now."
