Chapter 362 Preparations before departure
Sitting in the quiet room, Ye Chunyang tapped his fingers, revealing a thoughtful look.
From what Li Mochen said, this trip not only has powerful forbidden methods, but also fierce sandstorms. The danger is no less than some forbidden areas deep in the mountains outside Tianchong Mountain.
Even if the magical powers are greatly improved now, you must not take it lightly when facing such dangers.
After thinking for a moment, he waved his sleeves and a Qiankun bag appeared in front of him.
"As the leader of the Shadow Party, Cheng Wei Old Demon should have a lot of collections. Let's see what treasures he has?"
Staring at this thing for a while, Ye Chunyang's eyes flickered slightly. This is exactly the Qiankun bag he got from Cheng Wei Old Demon three years ago. At that time, he took this bag to get back his Qingsi Wan, and secondly, he guessed that this person must have a rich collection since he was the leader of the Shadow. However, he has been in seclusion for the past three years to consolidate his cultivation and temporarily forgot about this matter. Now he is in short of magic weapons, so it's just right to take it out and take a look.
After thinking so, he drove his consciousness upwards, and the seal was broken, and he successfully explored it.
But after a quick glance, he was a little surprised. He thought that Shadow had wiped out various sects over the years, and Cheng Wei, as the helmsman, must have a rich collection. However, the magic weapons in this Qiankun bag could be counted on one hand, and there were not many elixirs and talismans, which was completely different from what he imagined.
However, after a careful inspection, he was secretly satisfied, because although there were few treasures, they were all of extraordinary quality. It seemed that Cheng Wei was holding the idea of "better to have less than less", which was also in line with the style of this demon.
Ye Chunyang did not think much and took back the Qingsi Chan. Although the grade of this treasure was not high, the unexpected effect made him value it very much. He had to give it up in order to entangle Cheng Wei, so he naturally had to take it back now.
At this moment, a strange color flashed across his face, and he took out another jade slip and a formation plate.
Looking at the two objects and thinking for a while, he first probed his consciousness into the jade slip.
When he took back the green silk wrap just now, he found that the vibration of this jade slip was a bit strange, and it was the same as the breath emitted by the head of the rock when he drove the Yin Sha Magic Pearl.
Ye Chunyang had seen the power of the Yin Sha Magic Pearl with his own eyes, and he had long been tempted by it.
Sure enough, after the divine sense detection, he saw a magical method.
But when Ye Chunyang read it carefully several times, his face suddenly changed several times, showing shock, and then a little surprise, and after a moment, he withdrew his divine sense and remained silent.
"I didn't expect that the old demon Cheng Wei really had a method to cultivate the Yin Sha Magic Pearl, and it can also increase the power of the magic pearl without killing people and taking blood. If you practice according to this method, you can completely avoid the danger of the evil spirit backlash."
Ye Chunyang murmured to himself while holding the jade slip.
The jade slips do describe the method of driving the Yin Sha Magic Pearl, but it is not the set of exercises that the Shadow disciples practice. It was created by Cheng Wei, the old demon. It can cultivate the Yin Sha Magic Pearl through its own true essence, and it can also purify the evil spirit. In some ways, this method is completely for restraining the Yin Sha Magic Pearl.
Although the Yin Sha Magic Pearl is powerful, it is very evil. If you want to keep the evil spirit in the pearl, you need to condense it by collecting blood. The more evil spirit, the stronger the power.
However, evil spirit is a kind of evil magic after all, which is extremely harmful to the cultivators themselves. If you practice carelessly, you may be backfired by the evil spirit and become a demon in a thought.
It is precisely because Cheng Wei, the old demon, is concerned about this drawback that he did not choose to condense the magic pearl and created a set of restraining exercises.
However, as a person of the shadow, secretly studying the skills to restrain fellow disciples is a taboo. Therefore, after Cheng Wei created this method, he did not dare to show it to others and hid it tightly. If Ye Chunyang had not discovered it today, I am afraid that this method would have disappeared with him.
However, this is a happy event for Ye Chunyang. Now he has a Yinsha magic bead in his hand. After years of cultivation by the head of the rock, it has been upgraded to a lower-level spiritual treasure. Now he not only has the method to drive it, but also can eliminate the evil spirit on it, which is naturally the best of both worlds.
Thinking of this, he opened his Qiankun bag and took out the Yinsha magic bead. After smiling, he used his magical power to remove the seal on it.
With a "hum", the bead suddenly trembled violently, emitting bursts of dense black light, turning into clouds and cotton to cover the surroundings. The eerie bloody aura was like the ghost fog in hell, which actually had the effect of affecting the mind.
After circling around Ye Chunyang for several times, the bead seemed to have a spiritual sense and rushed straight to the door, obviously trying to escape from here.
Ye Chunyang sneered in his heart, having expected this.
This Yinsha Demon Bead was originally a sacrifice made by the blood of the Rock Master. Even if he died, his consciousness would remain. If he escaped on his own, he would kill people and collect blood, causing chaos in the world.
However, before he cultivated his magic power, Ye Chunyang sealed this bead, and now it is even more of a problem.
He formed a seal with one hand and pointed at the bead. Several rays of light shot out from his fingertips and wrapped around the Yinsha Demon Bead.
There were only a few muffled "bangs", and the clouds and cotton around the bead quickly disintegrated and stopped in place.
Afterwards, Ye Chunyang recited the incantation according to the self-created skills of Cheng Wei Lao Mo, and then pointed his finger again. The Yinsha Demon Bead trembled immediately, spinning in place, and spewed out bursts of amazing evil spirits, which actually competed with the magic power he exerted.
Seeing this scene, Ye Chunyang couldn't help but show a bit of surprise. He didn't expect that the evil spirit of the Yinsha Demon Pearl was much stronger than he expected. It seemed that the method used by the Rock Master to sacrifice and refine this pearl was also very clever.
However, the magic formula of Cheng Wei Old Demon was also quite mysterious. With his powerful magic power, the stalemate lasted only for a moment, and the evil spirit was dissipated. The dark ink-colored light on the pearl expanded and shrank, and then turned into golden treasure light, which was even more majestic.
Ye Chunyang was delighted and recalled the bead with a wave of his hand.
After being purified by the technique, the evil spirit of the Yinsha Demon Bead was gone, leaving only pure spiritual energy. Judging from the aura it exuded at this moment, its power was probably no less than his ancient treasure, the Golden Mace.
"It is really a good magic weapon."
Ye Chunyang smiled lightly. His spiritual awareness was several times greater than that of the same level, and it was not a problem for him to control ten spiritual treasures at the same time, so the more magic weapons the better.
He weighed the Yinsha Demon Bead in his hand and felt satisfied.
After taking back the bead, he took out the array plate and weighed it carefully.
He had sensed it just now. This array was the Annihilation Array that trapped them all that year. When he got this array plate, Ye Chunyang was surprised and pleasantly surprised.
After reaching the mana period, only powerful treasures such as spiritual arrays and spiritual treasures can fully exert their strength.
Right now, he needs these treasures to enhance his strength.
Spiritual arrays and spiritual treasures have lower, middle, upper, and even supreme levels.
The Annihilation Array is a high-level spiritual array, which requires extremely huge spiritual power. It is difficult for ordinary cultivators in the early stage of mana to activate it. But this is not a difficult problem for Ye Chunyang. He cultivates the three bodies of essence, qi, and spirit at the same time, and his mana is not comparable to that of the same level. Even if he cannot maximize the power of this array, it is not a problem to set it up.
After a little thought in his mind, he urged his mana to point at the array plate. In an instant, there was a sound of wind, thunder and lightning, and array flags flew out of the array plate, each occupying a position and condensing around.
With a sound of "puff".
A raging sea of fire suddenly rose in the secret room. Ye Chunyang was very familiar with this. It was the fire of the spiritual array that sealed the spiritual power. Once it fell into the array, even the mana cultivators would not be spared.
"I don't know how powerful those forbidden spells are. If I can temporarily seal them with this Soul Annihilation Formation, this trip will be a little safer."
Gazing at this formation, Ye Chunyang looked thoughtful and secretly planned in his heart.
After a moment of silence, he put away the Soul Annihilation Formation and continued to search the Qiankun bag of Cheng Wei's old demon.
In addition to the cultivation method of Yinsha Magic Pearl and the Soul Annihilation Formation, this demon's life magic weapon "Demon Flame Ring" is also a low-level spiritual treasure with good power. Ye Chunyang naturally accepted it without hesitation.
But apart from this, there are no other treasures that are worth looking at.
And this "Demon Flame Ring" has been cultivated by the old demon for many years, and there is still the residual breath of the other party on it, which needs to be purified for a period of time before it can be used.
After discovering that there are no other treasures, Ye Chunyang no longer spends more time exploring here, but quietly closes his eyes and meditates to regulate his breath.
Since transplanting the spirit-raising tree to the jade gourd, the spiritual energy that Ye Chunyang felt was a hundred times more abundant than before, and it was more beneficial for him to practice than ordinary people. He also found that after being nourished by this tree, the white skeleton also benefited from it. The whole body glowed with crystal light, and the bones became much tougher.
Ye Chunyang was a little surprised about this. As a corpse puppet, the white skeleton naturally could not have spiritual consciousness. Such a strange phenomenon was probably related to the nameless body refining technique, which allowed this beast to absorb spiritual energy on its own.
However, the white skeleton was imprinted with a split spirit by him, and in some ways it could be his clone. Such a thing with no harm and only one benefit, Ye Chunyang would naturally not stop it. Perhaps in the future, this beast could advance through the nourishment of spiritual energy, which would also be a great thing for him.
After thinking about it, Ye Chunyang immediately concentrated his mind and closed his eyes, waiting for tomorrow to come.
...
The next day.
When Ye Chunyang received Li Mochen's sound transmission note, it was already noon.
He adjusted his breath and finished his practice, then opened the cave and walked out.
As expected, Li Mochen had been waiting outside the house. Seeing this, he couldn't help but tease and said, "Brother Li is on time."
"Hehe, Brother Ye promised to help, I am very grateful, of course I have to be punctual." Li Mochen smiled and grinned twice.
He looked at Ye Chunyang with a little doubt, and saw that the other party looked calm, and his heart moved slightly. It seems that this person has spent a day and seems to have prepared some means.
Li Mochen was very moved by Ye Chunyang's attention, and waved his hand quickly and said, "Brother Ye, everything is ready, shall we set off immediately?"
Ye Chunyang nodded slightly, no objection.
Li Mochen smiled, patted the spirit beast bag casually, and a huge flying bird appeared. This beast is like a phoenix but not a wind, like a phoenix but not a phoenix, and looks like a peacock, but its whole body is as bright as flowing fire, and its momentum is extraordinary.
"This is..." Ye Chunyang was surprised. This beast turned out to be a second-level spirit pet.
"This is the 'Spirit Fire Bird', a spiritual pet I just captured recently. The journey is long, and using this as a means of transportation can save a lot of effort." Li Mochen chuckled, looking proud.
Ye Chunyang looked at the beast, nodded silently, and flew over without saying anything.
