Uncle Nine: Scattering beans to create soldiers? I'm using plants and trees to create soldiers.

The prompts on the panel kept changing and refreshing.

[Your mastery of the True Martial Demon-Slaying Technique has reached the required level; your level has increased!]

[Current Level: lv1 (Green), Proficiency: 1500/3000!]

Lin Xuan's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the line of emerald green handwriting in front of him.

Good heavens, a full 10,000 points of proficiency were poured in, and it actually pushed this technique directly to level 1 green.

Is this the sheer power of the purple Dao Fruit?

Before the thought could even finish, Lin Xuan's sea of ​​consciousness suddenly began to tremble violently.

With a deafening roar, boundless, leaden-gray clouds surged from the depths of my mind, instantly obscuring my entire mental world.

Amidst lightning and thunder, a towering, majestic Dharma image tore through the sky and slowly stepped out.

The great god had long hair and was barefoot, wearing a black robe with gold patterns. He stood on a giant tortoise as big as a mountain and a ferocious serpent.

Behind him hung a black flag with a black eagle carving, fluttering in the wind, and in his right hand he held a gleaming seven-star sword upside down.

It was none other than the True Martial Emperor.

Behind the divine image, the Turtle and Snake Generals, the Giant Dragon and Lion, and the Poisonous Dragon and Fierce Beast roared with their heads held high. The Five Thunder Gods, the Six Ding and Six Jia, and the 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers formed a neat military formation, and the murderous aura soared straight to the sky.

At the very front of the army, the Six Caves Demon King led a dense horde of ferocious monsters, baring their fangs and claws as they charged forward, their mournful howls causing eardrums to ache.

The next moment, the True Martial Emperor moved.

With a gentle flick of his left sleeve, a fierce wind arose in the heavens, and endless clouds and rain instantly gathered.

With a deafening roar, countless bolts of purple-gold lightning, as thick as buckets, crashed down from the clouds, instantly obliterating swarms of evil spirits.

Immediately afterwards, the Seven Star Sword slashed out.

Where the sword passed, a violent black wind, carrying blinding lightning and fire, swept across the eight directions. The few great demons at the forefront did not even have time to utter a scream before their livers and gallbladders were shattered, and their massive demonic bodies disintegrated inch by inch in the lightning and fire.

The True Martial Emperor pulled out the black flag carved in black from his back and unfurled it in mid-air.

The sound of rushing water rose, and a raging flood poured out from the void, transforming into a black, furious wave that swept across the heavens and earth, swallowing up all the demons that covered the mountains and plains.

The Five Thunder Gods and 100,000 Warriors behind them roared in unison, took big strides and charged out, colliding heavily with the remaining Six Cave Demon Kings.

This magnificent painting of subduing demons, along with every subtle movement of the True Martial Emperor, transformed into the most fundamental Taoist imprint, firmly engraving itself deep within Lin Xuan's sea of ​​consciousness.

Countless complex and profound scriptures and incantations then exploded.

The talismans for warding off evil spirits and protecting the home, the sword techniques for slaying demons and monsters, the thunder magic for summoning the heavenly thunder, the body techniques for stepping on the steps of the Big Dipper, and even all kinds of secret arts and supernatural powers such as summoning generals, praying for rain, and inviting gods, all flowed into Lin Xuan's memory like rivers flowing into the sea.

With a whoosh, Lin Xuan lost all control of his internal energy and immediately closed his eyes.

The two kidney deities within his inner vision of the Yellow Court emitted a clear, resonant hum, radiating a dazzling, azure divine light.

Immediately afterwards, the remaining six perfect body deities—the brain deity, heart deity, lung deity, spleen deity, tongue deity, nose deity, and throat deity—manifested simultaneously, with eight divine lights shining brightly in the meridians within the body.

"Huh?! Ah Xuan has made another discovery?!"

Uncle Nine looked at Lin Xuan in front of him, and his heart skipped a beat.

This time, his precious disciple has cultivated a strange spiritual plant that is close to Xuanwu. The feedback from this plant must be incredibly profound. I wonder how much progress Ah Xuan will make.

Just then, a cry of surprise rang out.

"Look closely at the water vapor around you!"

"Hiss... such thick fog, it's all seeping into Senior Brother's body!"

Qiu Sheng rubbed his eyes, looked in the direction Uncle Jiu was pointing, and gasped.

Under the night sky, the spiritual energy of the entire mortuary and the underground river behind it was boiling.

Wisps of blue vapor rose from the soil and pond, transforming into visible blue light bands that continuously flowed into Lin Xuan's pores.

As soon as these extremely pure water-based spiritual energies entered the meridians, they rapidly liquefied under the guidance of the kidney spirits, condensing into drops of azure liquid.

The spiritual liquid spread along Lin Xuan's kidneys, continuously washing over his internal organs and limbs.

With a series of cracking sounds, Lin Xuan's bones, nourished by the spiritual liquid, emitted crisp popping sounds, and the bone density increased at an astonishing rate, faintly revealing a layer of warm, jade-like light.

The muscle fibers throughout his body were constantly torn apart under the violent force of water, and then rapidly reorganized under the nourishment of the abundant blood and energy provided by his mind.

The dantian and dantian qi sea expanded rapidly in all directions like an inflating balloon. The Dao qi, which had already reached the limit of a perfect mage, was forcibly squeezed and condensed, transforming into a purer and deeper liquid true essence.

Just as Lin Xuan's physical body and Dao Qi were undergoing a violent transformation in sync, the True Martial Mystic Armor Vine in the center of the pool suddenly trembled slightly.

With a hum, a deep and soft blue-purple halo rippled from the surface of the black jade tortoise shell, instantly enveloping the entire spirit field.

This halo carried an indescribable profound Daoist aura. As soon as it landed on Lin Xuan, the originally obscure and complex True Martial inheritance in his mind instantly became clear and organized, and his comprehension speed increased several times over.

The halo continued to spread outwards, sweeping over the four people, including Uncle Nine, who were standing nearby without any obstruction.

Uncle Nine shuddered violently, his eyes, which had been fixed on Lin Xuan, suddenly widened. "This is... the Heavenly Sound of the Great Dao, the True Meaning of the Profound Water?!"

The next second, Uncle Nine's breathing became rapid, and his heart pounded violently.

Enveloped by this blue-purple aura, he felt that the world around him had become incredibly close. His previous biased understanding of True Martial Arts, Water Techniques, and Movement Techniques was quickly corrected and returned to the right path.

This profound and mysterious Dharma meaning was something even he himself could comprehend. The spiritual plant that Ah Xuan enlightened this time was simply too heaven-defying.

Uncle Nine's body trembled, and he hurriedly spoke.

"Don't speak, quickly sit cross-legged and circulate your energy to comprehend this Daoist essence!"

With a low shout, Uncle Nine quickly found his prayer mat, sat cross-legged with his palms facing upwards, and focused all his energy on absorbing the Xuan Tian True Meaning dissipating in the air.

Maoshan Ming, Qiusheng, and Wencai, who were standing nearby, didn't even have time to respond.

The moment that profound aura of the Great Dao swept over their bodies, a thunderous roar resounded in the minds of the three, and they all simultaneously entered a state of enlightenment that was rare and precious.

A constant buzzing sound emanated from the waist and abdomen of the three people, and a faint blue light simultaneously shone from their waists. The kidney spirits within each of them manifested uncontrollably, greedily drawing in the rich water elemental energy from the surrounding area and pouring it into their bodies.

A look of relief appeared on Mao Shanming's face.

The hidden injuries to his meridians that he had previously sustained were visibly healed at a speed under the cleansing effect of this watery spiritual energy containing the essence of True Martial Dao.

The dried-up dantian barrier regained its resilience, and a vast amount of water elemental power circulated rapidly throughout the body.

After only a short while, Mao Shanming's joints trembled violently, and a powerful aura burst forth from his body, scattering the fallen leaves on the ground.

Early stage of Grand Mage.

Their strength has been restored to another level.

On the other side, the phantom images of the two kidney spirits within Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai's bodies, after absorbing a massive amount of water spiritual energy and the profound essence of the Great Dao, quickly became clear and solid, their previously somewhat blurry facial features and clothing.

Two crisp buzzing sounds rang out almost simultaneously.

At this moment, both of their kidney spirits actually entered the Great Perfection realm.

As their kidney essence reached perfection, an incomparably pure innate kidney essence rose from their waists, flowing down their spines and into their entire bodies, repeatedly tempering their bones and flesh.

Although their cultivation levels remained at the early stage of Daoist practice without breakthrough, the floating Dao Qi within their bodies was solidified, and their foundations were honed to be unbreakable.

This is not over yet.

Little Jin, who had been curled up in a ball on the futon, now comfortably squinted his toad-like eyes.

It is a pure water-attribute exotic spirit beast, and it is most compatible with the aura of the Water Palace Divine Vein emitted by the True Martial Xuanjia Vine.

As it inhaled and exhaled the surrounding Daoist energy and spiritual energy, the scattered golden patterns on the black back of the little goldfish became brighter and brighter, and the patterns continued to spread.

Yuanbao, the black cat lying at Lin Xuan's feet, also purred. Its glossy black fur moved without wind, and its limbs became more agile and strong under the influence of spiritual energy.

The entire spiritual field has become a treasure trove of creation.

The various spiritual plants in the field sway in the wind, their flowers and leaves faintly glowing!

The souls of Su Qingqing, Li Qingshu, and the other rampant soldiers inside the Myriad Souls Spiritual Bone Vine became increasingly refined and transparent under the baptism of the Dao!

Even the golden light flowing across the surface of the Xuan Yin Corpse-Dissolving Jade Cicada at the core of the formation intensified, and the chanting it emitted became more ethereal and clear.

Lin Xuan, who was at the center of the storm, was hearing a series of crisp system notifications.

[Ding! You have received the Daoist blessing of 'True Martial Mystic Armor Vine - Profound Heaven True Meaning', your proficiency in 'True Martial Demon-Slaying Technique' has increased by 10!]

[Ding! You have received the Daoist blessing of 'True Martial Mystic Armor Vine - Profound Heaven True Meaning', your proficiency in 'True Martial Demon-Slaying Technique' has increased by 10!]

[Ding! You have been resonated with the aura of the 'True Martial Mystic Armor Vine - Water Mansion Divine Vein'. Your proficiency in 'Water Mansion Troop Deployment Order' has increased by 50!]

......

[Ding! Your proficiency in "Water Palace Troop Deployment Order" has reached its maximum. The skill's rank has been upgraded to green, and it has been renamed "Water Palace Military Command Talisman"!]

As the final notification sound faded, a deep blue rune formed from pure water elemental law took shape in Lin Xuan's sea of ​​consciousness.

As soon as the talisman appeared, it connected with the eight perfected deities within his body and the water veins beneath his feet.

With a deafening roar, the barrier between realms within Lin Xuan's dantian and qi sea, which had already been compressed to its limit, shattered on the spot under the impact of this newly generated law power, not even lasting half a breath.

An aura several times stronger than before surged from Lin Xuan's body, causing the surrounding spiritual energy to swirl back.

The liquefied Dao Qi had now formed a vast ocean, and his cultivation level had risen once again, bridging the insurmountable gap between a mage and a grand mage.

Early stage of Archmage!
