Man is in the heavens, parasitic on the way

"That black heaven spirit liquid was condensed spontaneously from this treasure cauldron?" Han Li asked unwillingly.

"No." Fang Ming's voice sounded, "It was condensed from my own origin under the premise of not affecting the xuan tian fruit's growth."

Hearing Fang Ming's words, Han Li was startled, finding it even more mysterious than he had imagined.

The origin of the Immortal Vine, not the origin of the xuan tian fruit.

Without the Immortal Vine, this xuan tian fruit naturally couldn't grow; the Immortal Vine was the root!

Han Li said regretfully, "Since that's the case, forget it."

In his understanding, this drop of black heaven spirit liquid contained much more spiritual power than top-grade spirit stones, so its slow generation speed was understandable.

His divine sense spread out, and Han Li carefully surveyed the world within the cauldron.

The more he observed, the more amazed he felt in his heart.

At this time, the world within this small cauldron was clearly incomplete and still expanding.

When the xuan tian fruit fully matured in the future, this world would definitely be even larger!

Suddenly, Han Li's heart stirred, and he said, "Since you can produce this kind of space-type spirit treasure, don't you possess the method to refine genuine spatial spirit treasures?"

"Do you take me for a Great Divine Ability cultivator?" Fang Ming's slightly speechless voice sounded.

The path of artifact refining was profound and complex, and he didn't have the corresponding basic knowledge, so he couldn't create something from nothing.

"Don't think that just because my xuan tian fruit is a space-type Xuan Tian Treasure, I am proficient in the method of refining spatial spirit treasures," Fang Ming explained, "The generation of this xuan tian fruit is more due to the creation of heaven and earth; the effect I exerted in it was not great."

This was a lie; the gestation of this xuan tian fruit was entirely led by Fang Ming. He did have insights into the path of space, but he wasn't proficient in artifact refining.

The reason why this xuan tian fruit containing a Cave Heaven within the cauldron could be born was actually because he guided the characteristics of the Immortal Vine, then continuously imprinted Dao principles related to space and the world, guiding its birth.

"That's really a pity." Han Li regretted, some thoughts in his heart shattered.

"Could it be that you're thinking of refining a space-type spirit treasure and, after your incarnation is complete, taking your Dao companions and relatives with you to ascend?" Fang Ming's voice, which seemed to be smiling but wasn't, sounded in the Medicine Garden.

"What? Is there a problem with my idea?" Han Li asked back indifferently, "When one person attains the Dao, even their chickens and dogs ascend; isn't this human nature?"

"The idea is not a problem." Fang Ming asked back, "But you wouldn't think that just because you have the method to refine spatial spirit treasures, you'll be able to successfully refine one, right?"

Han Li showed a thoughtful expression, understanding the Immortal Vine Spirit's implication. Combining it with his own artifact refining experience, he said, "You mean, it also requires relevant cultivation, and even some special materials?"

"Of course." Fang Ming's affirmative voice sounded, "Cultivation is secondary; when refining this kind of genuine Cave Heaven spirit treasure, materials are crucial."

In the Spirit Realm, even Great Ascension Cultivators only borrowed the power of laws; they were still far from truly proficient and in control.

To refine genuine spatial spirit treasures, one relied more on special materials.

"Can your Mystic Heaven Cauldron, which is currently being gestated, still not allow life to enter?" Han Li asked, still unwilling to give up.

"What do you think?" Fang Ming asked back.

Han Li shook his head and withdrew his divine sense.

Just like this, both harboring their own intentions, they reached an agreement.

Han Li's figure flashed, appearing in another Medicine Garden.

Seeing his true body appear, Han Li's Second Nascent Soul stepped forward and asked, "How did it go?"

"Reached some cooperation and stabilized it." Han Li smiled.

According to past circumstances, Han Li naturally wouldn't have adopted this method.

But now, that Immortal Vine was ultimately not an ordinary immortal root.

The Immortal Vine had already gained sentience, and combined with its sturdy and immortal vine body, it would definitely possess considerable combat power.

If they truly became adversaries, after a great battle, he might not gain anything at all.

This kind of mutually destructive outcome was not what he wanted.

Therefore, after knowing about the Immortal Vine's sentience, for the sake of the Xuan Tian Treasure, Han Li only had this path to take.

Besides, as long as that Immortal Vine remained here, could it still leave in the future?

"In the future, I will definitely be able to truly subdue it!" Han Li's Second Nascent Soul smiled.

This kind of heaven and earth spiritual root gaining sentience naturally wouldn't be easily subdued; he had long been prepared for this.

If a spiritual root like the Mystic Heaven Immortal Vine were to be compared, it would be appropriate to compare it to a True Spirit.

Wanting to subdue an existence equivalent to a True Spirit was clearly not a simple matter.

After reaching cooperation, Han Li kept his word.

If the Immortal Vine could regenerate after bearing fruit, it would also be a good thing for him.

Therefore, within just a few months, he successively sent over numerous cultivation techniques and skills, including artifact refining, body refining, pill refining, and array formations.

All-encompassing!

In the inner world of the third seed-xuan tian fruit hidden at the root, Fang Ming sat cross-legged on a golden cushion, with golden characters flying all over the sky before him.

These were scriptures about cultivation techniques. He was trying to find inspiration from the many scriptures to find a method to cultivate magical power.

Transformation was impossible; this path was impassable.

This returned to the initial problem: If you can't cultivate, how can you transform?

This was a cycle: If you transform, you can cultivate, but if you can't cultivate, you can't transform!

For other spiritual beings and demon beasts, this problem didn't exist.

They could instinctively absorb and exhale spiritual energy to cultivate.

Even that Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng, a spiritual being condensed from heaven and earth spiritual energy, could cultivate!

However, Fang Ming, as the Immortal Vine, couldn't. Absorbing and exhaling spiritual energy would only strengthen the Immortal Vine's origin and make the xuan tian fruit more powerful.

It was not impossible to find inspiration from many basic scriptures and comprehend a method that would allow him to embark on the path of cultivation.

Among the Human Clan, there was Qing Yuanzi who created the "Qing Yuan Sword Art" and cultivated all the way to the Great Ascension realm.

In the Demon Realm, there was an unknown mighty figure who deduced a profound method of dual cultivation for body and magical power from basic cultivation techniques, which Han Li called the "Brahma Sacred True Demon Art."

Fang Ming, as the Mystic Heaven Immortal Vine, was naturally close to the Dao and was in the Dao realm at all times. Theoretically, there was a considerable possibility for him to achieve comprehensive understanding through analogy.

Looking at the densely packed golden characters suspended before him, golden symbols flashed in Fang Ming's eyes, and endless inspiration burst forth in his heart.

"Damn, I forgot I have this obsessive-compulsive disorder..."

Fang Ming looked at these cultivation techniques and couldn't help but want to modify them, wanting to make them more perfect.

Just remembering these cultivation techniques was nothing, but once he studied them carefully, it would be extraordinary.

Countless inspirations burst forth, and Fang Ming couldn't control the stirring in his heart at all.

"No! I can't go through them one by one; I need to fuse them together." Fang Ming shook his head hard, and his divine sense spread out.

Instantly, in the golden world within a hundred zhang radius, characters were everywhere, all cultivation methods.

To achieve comprehensive understanding through analogy, deep research was definitely required to gain anything.

Fang Ming went with the flow and began to try fusing various cultivation methods, planning to create a cultivation technique that cultivated both magical power and body.

Although he didn't have a human body in this realm, many cultivation techniques contained numerous mysteries of the human body. By thoroughly comprehending these techniques, he could basically understand the mysteries of the human body.

He believed he had some comprehension ability and might be able to do this.

Going back and forth, with sunrises and sunsets, ten years quickly passed.

Ten years passed. Not to mention finding a method that would allow him to embark on the path of cultivation, Fang Ming couldn't even successfully create the dual cultivation technique for body and magical power that he wanted to create.

The difficulty of fusing various cultivation techniques, taking their essence and discarding the dross to create a completely new cultivation technique, was greater than he had imagined.

His understanding of the human body was still somewhat shallow.

"Relying solely on assumptions and deductions won't work; I must truly observe the mysteries of the human body in minute detail." Fang Ming opened his eyes and his mind stirred.

A 'rustling' sound rang out. A golden and silver intertwined vine was raised high and knocked three times on the door of the stone house in the center of the Medicine Garden.

Knocking sounds spread. Not long after, Han Li descended from the sky with a puzzled expression, landing not far from the Immortal Vine's root.

"What is it?" Han Li frowned. Being suddenly disturbed while immersed in cultivation somewhat displeased him.

Ten years passed. Relying on the black heaven spirit liquid provided by Fang Ming, as well as the many spiritual medicines he planted and the spiritual energy here that was so dense it almost turned into mist, Han Li successfully broke through from the early Transformation Spirit stage to the middle Transformation Spirit stage.

The effect of the so-called black heaven spirit liquid was stronger than he had imagined!

After successively taking two drops, he actually successfully broke through!

Fang Ming's voice came from the Immortal Vine: "Help me capture some cultivators, and they must be alive!"

"What do you want cultivators for?" Han Li asked, puzzled, "Are you planning to seize someone's body to escape your original destiny?"

"No, I am creating a cultivation technique, and I've encountered some difficulties now. I need to observe the mysteries of the human body in minute detail," Fang Ming explained.

"Creating a cultivation technique!?" Han Li was shocked and said, "You mean, you are creating a cultivation technique that the Human Clan can cultivate?"

"Is there a problem? I am a heaven and earth spiritual root, a favorite of heaven and earth, naturally intelligent. No need to make a fuss!" A smug voice came from the Immortal Vine.

Han Li was stunned. An Immortal Vine actually said it was creating a cultivation technique at this moment, which simply shattered his worldview.

He had cultivated until now and had never even thought about creating a technique!

"What kind of cultivation technique are you planning to create?" Han Li pressed.

"A cultivation technique that integrates all the techniques you gave me before, a cultivation technique for dual cultivation of magical power and body!" A confident voice came from the Immortal Vine.

Han Li looked at the Immortal Vine suspiciously, his expression full of doubt: "Are you serious?"

"You don't believe me?" The Immortal Vine Spirit seemed a bit unhappy. A 'rustling' sound rang out in the Medicine Garden, and a vine was raised. "Take out a jade slip, and I'll let you see the 'Immovable Mingwang Golden Body' I created by combining the Sky-lifting Devil Art and the Mingwang Art!"

Hearing this, Han Li chuckled inwardly, thinking, "This Immortal Vine Spirit is still young; it fell for it as soon as I provoked it."

That's right, Han Li deliberately provoked it, wanting to see what kind of cultivation technique it had actually created.

A hundred years had passed; it was impossible to say there hadn't been any gains at all.

As the Immortal Vine raised its branch and tapped the jade slip, Han Li immediately felt his divine sense surge into it.

Soon after the Immortal Vine branch returned to its original position, Han Li picked up the jade slip and probed it with his divine sense, planning to take a quick look.

With this look, Han Li's expression immediately changed. This cultivation technique was somewhat similar to the Sky-lifting Devil Art and Mingwang Art he had obtained before, but it was even more profound.

According to the cultivation technique, after achieving great success, one could use a divine ability called 'Immovable Mingwang'.

This divine ability was incredibly powerful. Once used, the body's strength would surge dramatically, almost comparable to a Xuan Tian Treasure, and not inferior to a True Spirit in the slightest, truly worthy of being called the body becoming sacred!

"How is it?" As if seeing Han Li's shocked expression, the Immortal Vine's voice was very smug, "How is the cultivation technique I created?"

Inside the Immortal Vine, Fang Ming was a bit smug.

What he was smug about wasn't that he had created the Immovable Mingwang Golden Body cultivation technique, but that the Old Devil hadn't seen the problem with this technique and was even stunned by this problematic technique!

He naturally sensed that the Old Devil was deliberately provoking him. Similarly, Fang Ming was also doing it on purpose.

He just wanted to see this scene.
