Gou Dao Changsheng: Starting from the Reincarnation of a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 767 The Cave Heaven's Treasure is Completed, A Meeting with the Azure Marrow and the Jade Water
The shadowy figure of the ancient Chinese toon tree stretches out, its branches gnarled and twisted, with a lush green vine about three fingers thick encircling its roots.

"Edict!"

As the Qi of Jia Wood circulates, a trace of Yi Wood Qi emerges.

Fang Yi sat cross-legged on the futon, his magical power surging through his eight extraordinary meridians, eventually flowing into the sea of ​​qi and converging into the golden elixir in his dantian.

A continuous stream of magical power poured into it, and the cyan-gold golden core visibly grew larger.

As the saying goes, his cultivation level naturally broke through to the third level of Core Formation.

"Buzz!"

A wisp of azure light appeared at her fingertips, sometimes transforming into a verdant medicine cauldron, and sometimes into a delicate blue lotus.

Unlike other Core Formation cultivators, the cultivation of the [Life, Death, Withering and Flourishing Scripture] is slow but has no bottlenecks, and there is no need to consolidate one's cultivation after breaking through a bottleneck.

"The next step is to refine the Wonderful Void True Water into the Ruins Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner."

First, establish the foundation of the water element, then establish the foundation of the wood element, thus constructing a three-element cycle.

With the profound power of the treasures of the grotto-heaven, after completing the three small cycles, the power of the Void Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner greatly increased, making it the strongest treasure in my hands.

In the vast Great Cloud Immortal Cultivation World, few magical treasures can rival it.

A sharp glint flashed in Fang Yi's eyes.

Yan Youtai possesses a mid-stage Core Formation cultivation level and has a profound foundation.

He possesses the Heavenly Secrets Eight Trigrams Plate, which is adept at divination; the Nine Wood Azure Sky Staff, which is first-rate in combat; and the Heavenly Law Bright Sky Tower, which is capable of both offense and defense and is skilled at escape.

With these three mid-grade magic treasures protecting him, without a magic treasure that can deliver the final blow, he wouldn't be able to kill with absolute certainty.

"Once the Void Realm's Withering and Flourishing Banner has been refined, the three rows will be laid out."

The Azure Blood Bodhi Branch that Xiao Yan was using to develop the seventh layer of magical restriction was inferior.
To fight against the Void Realm's Withered Glory Banner, one would need at least the Netherfire Sword in Chen Yuhua's hands from Sudu Mountain.
Only then, in the Great Cloud Cultivation World, can one truly unleash their full potential.

Fang Yi's robes fluttered as he murmured softly.

"Yan Youtai is just the beginning; the White Bone Sect is the real opportunity."
With my puppetry skills, plus the accumulated expertise of the White Bone Sect over a thousand years.

Create a high-grade Tier 3 battle puppet, or even a near-Tier 4 puppet, as a protective treasure.

Nascent Soul Avenue
I'm determined to see the scenery I never saw in my past life!

"disease!"

The Void Realm's Withering and Flourishing Banner was raised, and the Crane Punishment Transmission Talisman was unleashed, summoning an adorable, silver-white little beast.

A blue lotus rose beneath Fang Yi's feet, and he transformed into a streak of blue light, disappearing into the small grotto.

"Slow down the formation setup. Xiao Qi, guard the cave for now and make sure the treasure-refining phenomenon doesn't leak out."

"Master, please rest assured, I am no longer the same as before!"

Qi Jie chuckled, summoned the Earth Treasure Gourd, and spiritual sand surged forth to form an array.

With each breath, the Daoist essence of Earth transformed into a golden jade mountain, suppressing the Qi of all directions.

On Yunhe Island, a beam of brown spiritual light descended, blocking the path of a fake Dan cultivator.

Huang Huaiyu, wearing a mountain and river crown, with a round body and a protruding belly, squinted and smiled, saying:
"Fellow Daoist Fei Hong, where are we headed?"

“There are important matters in the clan. Please forgive me, Master Huang, I will take my leave first.”

Yu Feihong wore a precious jade crown and a purple-gold flying cloud robe, with the corners of the robe inlaid with fire-repelling, wind-stabilizing, and water-suppressing pearls, exuding an air of nobility.

He didn't linger; he took a step and vanished in an invisible ray of light.

"The Jade Light Escape Technique, this is Yu Feihong's trump card."
Could it be that something really happened to the Yu family of Five-Colored Mountain?

Huang Huaiyu narrowed his eyes slightly, inwardly denying it:
"impossible!

A spy hired by the clan reported that Yu Feihong had secretly approached the Tan, Su, and Liao families, as well as other related families by marriage, to exchange spiritual items.
Is this to support the formation at Qingkong Cliff?

Master Yan has advanced to the fourth level of Core Formation, yet he chooses to take the rugged path instead of the main road to heaven. How unwise of Yu Feihong!

All that fear I had of Yu Feihong in the past seems to have nothing to do with him."

"Tsk, that's good, one less competitor."

Huang Huaiyu shook his head slightly, having no intention of exposing Yu Feihong immediately.

Although both are pseudo-Dan Masters, the foundation and power of Qingshuijian are not as great as those of the Yu family of Five Colors Mountain.

By leaving this leverage, we can reap further benefits when Yan Youtai advances further and defeats the Biyue Pavilion cultivators.

Yunhe Island Center.

The Misty Pavilion is seventeen feet tall, with agarwood beams, surrounded by artificial hills and flowing springs.

A beam of silver light descended, transforming into the hexagrams of Heaven and Earth, sealing off the exit.

Holding the Azure Blood Bodhi Branch, Xiao Yan looked at the cultivator blocking his way with a puzzled expression.

Why are you blocking my way?
Yu Feihong and Qingkongya were colluding and exchanging spiritual items in secret. Did they really think I didn't know?

If this continues, the grand formation within Azure Sky Cliff will be completed, and Fang Yi's further achievements will be completely overwhelmed.

“Yu Feihong is acting on my orders, as instructed by Changsun Jie.”

Yan Youtai made a startling statement, playing with a celestial globe in his hand, the runes flowing and evolving the Daoist principles of the Three Changes.

"Master Yan, why are you like this?"
This is aiding the enemy, raising a tiger to cause future trouble! Xiao Yan was anxious and hurriedly tried to dissuade him:
"Master Yan has advanced to the fourth level of Core Formation, and his superior cultivation has allowed him to defeat Fang Yi in one round."

But Fang Yi isn't a useless, fake Core Formation cultivator. His path to enlightenment is severed. Does the True Person have the confidence to reach the sixth level of Core Formation before he advances to the mid-stage of Core Formation?

Yan Youtai shook his head slightly and said, "After reaching the Core Formation stage, each breakthrough in cultivation becomes three times more difficult than before."

"I cannot advance to the sixth level of Core Formation until Fang Yi breaks through to the mid-stage of Core Formation."

Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; Yan Youtai's cultivation had improved at an astonishing speed.

Fortunately, after breaking through to the fourth level of Core Formation, his cultivation speed finally slowed down.

"Then why are you stopping me from teaching Yu Feihong a lesson!"
Could it be that Master Yan has a penchant for raising tigers to cause future trouble, cultivating formidable enemies?

"Raising a tiger to cause trouble?"

Yan Youtai chuckled and raised his eyebrows, saying disdainfully:

"Can't suppress Fang Yi?"
Then there's no need to suppress it!
Once Changsun Jie has completely gained Fang Yi's trust, an opportunity will arise that will solve the problem once and for all!

"Kill fellow disciples?"

Xiao Yan was startled. If the murder of a fellow disciple were discovered, it would provoke the Grand Master to take action and bring the perpetrator to justice.

"If it attracts the attention of True Immortal Tianque, or Zhang Hengyi of the Ancestral Hall, then..."
This is far too dangerous!

“If we do not do this, Xiao Yan, how will you face yourself when Fang Yi reaches the mid-stage of Core Formation?”
At most, I'll lose some advantages. Xiao Yan, how much resources can you still obtain from the sect for your future cultivation?"

Yan Youtai smiled enigmatically and said, "I defeated Fang Yi at Qingkong Cliff before, but Uncle Xiao, you've suffered defeat after defeat."

"."

"."

After a moment of silence, a murderous intent appeared in Xiao Yan's eyes, and his killing aura was no longer concealed.

Having lost the support of his sect and incurred the enmity of Fang Yi, his path to enlightenment is inevitably severed.

'This must not be allowed!'

The Xiao family of Burning Dome cannot fall into ruin under my rule!

He slightly closed his eyes, suppressing his murderous intent, and said softly:
"Master Yan is right. Fang Yi's momentum is too strong to be suppressed. We should stop suppressing him."

"Haha, Uncle Xiao, just think it through." A hint of joy flashed in Yan Youtai's eyes.

"Let's join forces and kill Fang Yi completely!"

After that, no one in the Jianyang Secret Realm competed for it; this was our greatest opportunity.

The number of cultivators coming and going at Qingkong Cliff has increased several times.

People die for wealth, birds die for food; Qingkong Cliff openly sells Foundation Building Pills, various magical artifacts, and inheritances.

It can attract enough people, and seeing that there are many cultivators, cultivators from tens of thousands of miles around will feel safe to approach the cliff.

A small cave of withering and flourishing.

Fang Yi wore a jade crown, a robe of mountains and rivers transforming into the moon, and stood on a blue lotus, floating in the air.

Looking eastward into the cave, in the spiritual field transformed from the Wuyuan soil, a bitter plum tree with lush green branches and leaves swayed, surrounded by white jade-colored leaf buds.

Beneath the ancient tree, rows of third-tier precious herbs, like stars surrounding the moon, entwine around a foot-long Xuan Tian Spirit Vine as if subjects were paying homage to a king.

The green vines and leaves stretched out, exuding a profound and mysterious aura. To the south of the grotto-heaven, a dark and sacred mountain stood tall.

The spirit land of Jishi Mountain is filled with gray and black resentment, and spirit coffins surrounded by corpse energy are hidden deep underground.

At the foot of the frigid and deep Ling Mountain, scarlet blood energy surrounded a mud pool. At the edge of the pool, blue and white ice bone mandalas continuously condensed yin energy as they inhaled and exhaled.

With a youthful face, resembling that of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, Chi Yin held a precious coffin in his arms and leaned against a fifth-grade corpse lotus.

He squinted, hummed a little tune, and comfortably circulated his magical power.

"The Corpse Path Spirit Land: a mountain of piled corpses; the Blood Path Spirit Land: a quagmire of flesh and blood; and the Ghost Path Spirit Land: a pool for nourishing souls."

Fang Yi flicked his sleeve, and a beam of spiritual light descended, slicing through the layers of mist like a sharp sword.

The illusion of the western part of the grotto dissipated, revealing a deep pool of water, its surface shimmering with azure light.

"After more than a hundred years of refinement, all the accumulated essence of my past life has been transformed within it."

With three quasi-third-tier spiritual lands serving as the central suppression, the withered and flourishing minor grotto-heaven already possesses the rudiments of a grotto-heaven treasure.

"disease!"

In the Soul Nourishing Pool, emerald waves rolled, and a three-foot-long wooden core, surrounded by clouds and mist, and entwined with feng shui spiritual energy, slowly rose from the pool.

As he caressed the warm, smooth texture in his hand, Fang Yi's face showed a look of reminiscence.

"The third-grade superior-quality Cloud Smoke Wood Heart was obtained along with the Xuan Tian Spirit Seed and then nurtured in the cave."

The third-tier spirit wood with feng shui attributes originally intended to find a corresponding treasure to refine an offensive weapon.

Now, as the foundation of the wood element, it is combined with many precious medicines, making the best use of everything, which is enough to establish the wood element.

Fang Yi's expression was solemn, and the power of withering and flourishing flowed, bringing forth a surge of vitality.

Spiritual seals were cast from his fingertips, evolving into vitality and Daoist charm, continuously seeping into the Cloud Mist Wood.

A bright blue moon rose, surrounded by clouds and mist, and set in the east.

"Buzz!"

The azure moon transformed into clouds and mist, merging into the grotto, originating from the Wuyuan soil and flowing along the underground Yin Spring.

Feeling the power of water and wood flowing within the cave, Fang Yi murmured a chant.

"Wood is said to be curved and straight, and it is the beginning of the five elements!"

Within the Wuyuan soil, tender shoots sprout from the Cold Marrow Wood Seed, the Jade Heart Orchid glows with jade light, the withered heart vine sways with tender leaves, the Purple Gold Blood Nourishing Ginseng is surrounded by blood energy, and the Crimson Flame Lotus sways.
A rich life force gathered from the third-tier precious medicine, accumulating little by little, intending to evolve into an ancient tree phantom.

"Oh!"

The lush green vitality was insufficient, and it only evolved into tree roots before collapsing into specks of green light.

"This is a spiritual object lacking the pure essence of the [Wood-Growth] Dao, missing the core that suppresses the origin."

Fang Yi reached out and grabbed, drawing out a mysterious energy from the Xuan Tian Ling Teng, which was then struck into the swirling life force.

"Wow!"

Life surged forth, and a mysterious aura flashed by, evolving into the illusory image of a Mysterious Heavenly Vine.

"The wood element is now solidified."

"Water flows downwards, representing the end of the Five Elements."

As the ancient and simple sacrificial words lingered, Fang Yi waved his hand and tossed out a bright blue pearl.

The precious pearl spun around, its watery essence flowing, and the wondrous void water merged into the Yin Spring.

"Wow~"

Azure light swirled and spread throughout the cave, following the veins of the Yin Spring, nurturing all life.

The many coffins on the mountain of corpses were nourished by the Yin Spring, and the corpses that were originally filled with the aura of death all began to show signs of life.

"The water's course is now secure."

"Earth is called farming, and it is the element among the five elements."

The earth's energy surged from the soil, and a brown mist expanded across the land, causing the soil layers to thicken continuously.

Feeling the weight beneath his feet, Fang Yi smiled and cast the final magic seal with his fingertips.

Therefore, wood is the beginning of the five elements; water is the end of the five elements; and earth is the middle of the five elements.

This is the natural order of things. Wood generates fire, fire generates earth, earth generates metal, metal generates water, and water generates wood; this is the father-son relationship.

"Boom!"

The Ku Rong Xiao Dong Tian trembled, and the three fundamental runes of [Wood], [Earth], and [Water] performed within the origin of the Dong Tian.

Runes flowed, and five precious restrictions within the grotto manifested, transforming into a giant ancient Chinese toon tree.

Beneath the ancient trees, water veins abound, and the solid earth is imbued with the gilded energy of the earth's evolution.

"Buzz!"

The wood of the large Chinese toon tree is vibrant and its three colors of green, yellow, and black shimmer and transform into each other.

“It begins with wood and ends with wood.”

Fang Yi struck down with his palm, causing the giant cedar tree to explode, evolving into six treasure restrictions that merged into the origin.

"It's done!"

His eyes lit up with joy, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile.

"The 'Scripture of Life, Death and Prosperity' truly lives up to its reputation as a righteous and noble path, far surpassing the 'Three Yin God-Slaying Technique' by several times."

Back when I was forging the Three Yin God-Slaying Sword at the Nether Spring Sect, even though the quality of the spiritual materials was a notch higher, it never felt as effortless and natural as it is today.

In the quiet room of Hanhai Tower.

A tall figure stepped forward, waved his hand, and the Void Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner fell into his palm.

"Master, you've already emerged from seclusion?"

Sensing the subtle aura emanating from the Void Realm's Withering and Flourishing Banner, even though he knew it was harmless to him, Qi Jie still felt a chill run down his spine and was filled with fear.

"How could this precious banner have become so terrifying!"

Fang Yi stored the precious banner in his dantian and nurtured it with dantian fire, then reached out and gathered the seven precepts into his bosom.

He stroked the glossy, silvery-white fur, soothingly saying:
"The Void Realm's Withering and Flourishing Banner has evolved into the Six Paths of Treasure Restriction. As the small cycle begins to take shape, it is inevitable that its sharp edge will be fully revealed."

"After I refine it with elixir fire for a while, there will be no major problem."

"Master, how does this refined Void Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner compare to the Azure Blood Bodhi Branch, or this superior-grade magic treasure embryo that has evolved the Six Paths Treasure Restriction?"

"The Blood-Red Bodhi Branch?"

Fang Yi pondered for a moment, then said, "Unless the Azure Blood Bodhi Branch evolves into the seventh treasure restriction."

If a Core Formation True Person advances to the position of Great True Person, their magical power undergoes another qualitative change.

Otherwise, in terms of combat skills and power, the Azure Blood Bodhi Branch is no match for the Void Realm Withered and Flourishing Banner.

Under gentle reassurance, Qi Jie's turbulent emotions gradually calmed down.

She asked curiously, "What about the three treasures that protect the sect in Xuan Yang Mountain?"

"The Zhou Tian Bagua Diagram, the Xuan Yang Divine Fire Mirror, and the Great Void Zhenyun Boat are no ordinary sect-protecting treasures."

Fang Yi's eyes were deep and mysterious. He waved his hand and released a beam of spiritual light before stepping out of the Han Hai Tower.

Three days later, inside the city, on the city wall.

"Boom!"

Twenty-four beams of brown spiritual light shot into the sky, surrounded by the energy of the Earth element.

Fang Yi nodded slightly.

"Yan Youtai is indeed diligent; he has gathered all the necessary spiritual items for setting up the array so quickly."

"It's time to arrange a meeting with Qing Sui. The fire-elemental spirit of the Ruins Realm's Withered Glory Banner cannot exist without the assistance of the Azure Water Pavilion."

With a wave of his sleeve, a pale white light flowed, and a three-foot-long section of demon bone transformed into a skull and vanished without a trace.

Half a day later, ten thousand miles away from Qingkong Cliff, in a mountain valley.

"An invitation from the Yin Bone?"

A surprised voice rang out.
