Chapter 642: Changes in the Spiritual Spoon
Hearing that the black-robed monk had some intention, the heads of the families were overjoyed. The green-skinned soldier immediately said, "According to the news from Miaoyun Sect, the demon girl has cultivated magic power, but she is alone. Senior, don't worry. In addition to you, there are several masters of magic power in Miaoyun Sect. You only need to be responsible for finding the demon girl's whereabouts, and they can capture her."
After this, everyone looked at the black-robed monk with expectation. To be honest, if they were not afraid of the demon girl's magic power, how could they be willing to take out these family heirlooms to invite her.
The black-robed monk listened to the green-skinned soldier's narration expressionlessly, and did not answer for a long time.
"Okay, since you are only looking for the demon's whereabouts, I can agree to it. I will accept these ancient treasures. You can go back now." After a long time, the black-robed monk stretched out his hand and several ancient treasures immediately flew in front of him. He put them all in his pocket and then turned back to the mansion.
"Senior..."
The heads of the families all looked unhappy when they saw this. They opened their mouths to say something, but dared not speak.
The black-robed monk paused, looked back at them, and said, "Don't worry, since I promised this, I will naturally fulfill the agreement. You can go back with peace of mind. I will come out tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he closed the stone door and disappeared, leaving only the heads of the families looking at each other in shock.
"Brother Shen, what should we do? Now the treasures of our families have been in his hands. If he regrets it..." The rough man looked uneasy and asked the green-skinned soldier anxiously.
The green-skinned soldier's face was uncertain.
In fact, he was no less uneasy than the rough man and others. The treasure was in the hands of the black-robed monk, and the other party did not take any other practical actions except for an empty promise, which made him a little worried.
"This senior has been doing favors to the mortals on the island for the past two years. It can be seen that he is not a treacherous and evil person. I think he will not do anything to go back on his word. Let's go back and wait patiently."
After a while, the green-skinned soldier sighed and said with a wry smile.
Everyone was stunned, but after hearing this, they could only sigh silently.
At this point, they can only comfort themselves in this way.
After discussing again, the heads of the families left immediately.
What they didn't know was that just as they left one after another, there was a completely different scene in the cave in the mountain.
In the dark stone room, the black-robed monk sat silently, with a flickering light in his eyes, as if thinking about something. After a while, he took a jade gourd from his neck and wiped it with two fingers.
I saw a silver light flashing, and a strange-looking big spoon appeared.
Then he patted the Qiankun bag again, and several ancient treasures of different styles flew out, which were the treasures sent by several heads of Luoyun Island before.
The black-robed monk stared at the big spoon and several ancient treasures for a moment, then made a hand gesture, and a spiritual light shot into the big spoon. The spoon suddenly shook violently and emitted a faint light.
A strange scene appeared. After shaking for a few times, the big spoon sprayed out several rays of light and wrapped several ancient treasures in it. These ancient treasures made a buzzing sound under the brilliance of the big spoon. The spiritual energy was forcibly extracted and hidden in the spoon, turning into a pile of scrap copper and iron and falling to the ground. In a blink of an eye, all the spiritual energy was lost.
It actually absorbed all the spiritual energy of several ancient treasures.
The black-robed monk looked at this scene, his expression did not change. After the big spoon absorbed the spiritual energy of several ancient treasures, he made a move with his hand, and the spoon fell back into his hand safely.
At this time, the light on the spoon was slightly more dazzling than before.
"I didn't expect that the spirit spoon could absorb the spiritual energy of ancient treasures. Counting the pieces sent by several major families on Luoyun Island, I have absorbed a lot of ancient treasures in the past two years, but I wonder if there will be any changes after absorbing them?" The black-clothed monk held the big spoon, took off his cloak and veil, and muttered to himself.
His appearance was very ordinary and young. He looked only in his early twenties, but his eyes were deep and inconsistent with his age.
The one who could have such a look was naturally Ye Chunyang.
The reason why he appeared on this Luoyun Island can be traced back to when he got the Dustless Flower from Miaole Zhenren two years ago. After leaving Daqi Island, Ye Chunyang took other medicinal materials from the Alchemy Association of Shenxing Island, and then found a secret place to retreat and refine the Tianyuan Juqi Pill.
This retreat lasted for two years. Now he has already advanced to the late stage of magic power. Two years ago, several families on the island saw the strange scene here, which was the phenomenon caused by his advancement.
In fact, it doesn't take such a long time to refine Tianyuan Juqi Dan with Ye Chunyang's alchemy skills, and after years of accumulation, breaking through the realm is just a barrier for Ye Chunyang. However, what surprised him was that after taking Tianyuan Juqi Dan, he not only successfully broke through the barrier, but also rushed to the peak of the late stage of mana.
Ye Chunyang was naturally surprised and happy about this. Reaching the peak of the late stage of mana proved that he was only one step away from the Dan stage, but he soon found that because he advanced too fast, his true essence in his body was unstable, and the three spiritual skills of the Origin Heavenly Scripture, the Refining Spirit Technique, and the Immortal Golden Body Technique also showed a state of instability.
The only way to solve this problem is to constantly ripen the spiritual medicine and refine the pill to help stabilize the realm, and do more good deeds in the world to stabilize the heart of Tao, so he went out of the house many times to help mortals exorcise demons and help disaster victims.
During this period, he once again sacrificed the Qingtian Xuanhuo Sword and mixed the Rongjing Sand obtained from Yinming Island into it to greatly increase its power.
But then something strange happened.
One day, when Ye Chunyang was about to take out the magic spoon from the jade gourd, the spoon suddenly emitted a strange light, and many ancient treasures stored in the jade gourd were absorbed by it.
Ye Chunyang was shocked and felt strange, but what surprised him was that after the spirit spoon absorbed the spiritual energy of many ancient treasures, the quality of the spiritual herbs ripened increased by several times, and the speed was also much faster.
Recalling the fact that he got the spiritual protection of this spoon under the West Mountain Ridge of Dongzhou many years ago, he couldn't help but wonder if this spoon was special in spirit and could only be replenished by the spiritual energy in the ancient treasures?
After this guess, Ye Chunyang immediately sacrificed all the ancient treasures he brought with him, extracted the spiritual energy and integrated it into the spoon. Sure enough, after the spirit spoon absorbed a large amount of ancient treasure spiritual energy, the effect of ripening spiritual herbs became more and more obvious, and the quality of the pills refined by it was better than before.
But not long after, Ye Chunyang faced an embarrassing problem. He didn't have many ancient treasures on him, and they were all absorbed by the spirit spoon in just half a year. Moreover, as the spiritual energy increased, the spirit spoon seemed to be saturated, and the effect of ripening spiritual herbs stopped there, and it seemed that it could not make any further progress.
Just as Ye Chunyang was secretly distressed, several heads of Luoyun Island came to him on their own initiative. Through his spiritual sense, he heard that they were talking about ancient treasures, so he opened the door to meet them.
"After smelting the ancient treasures sent by several major families, the spirit spoon has gained a lot of spiritual energy, but I don't know if it can still play other special effects. It seems that we need to find more ancient treasures to verify it."
Ye Chunyang pondered secretly.
Since he first entered the immortal way, the spirit spoon has been with him. After several experiments, Ye Chunyang firmly believes that the ability of this spoon is not limited to ripening, and there must be other magical uses, but he has not yet discovered them.
He was very curious. If he absorbed enough spiritual energy from ancient treasures, would the spirit spoon undergo some unexpected changes?
With his extraordinary spiritual sense, he could feel that the ancient treasure seemed to contain a special spiritual energy that could not be possessed by current magic weapons. Perhaps it was this special spiritual energy that could make the spirit spoon more spiritual, so he needed to get more ancient treasures anyway.
Putting the spirit spoon in his palm and stroking it, Ye Chunyang smiled with deep relief.
Although this treasure is still a mystery, he believes that it will be solved one day, and maybe there will be another harvest by then.
With a plan in mind, Ye Chunyang did not think much, put away the spirit spoon and meditated, and went to several major families to find out the situation after dawn tomorrow.
Although several people said that they only needed to follow the masters of Miaoyun Sect to investigate the whereabouts of the demon cult witch, Ye Chunyang, who has always been steady, needs to be fully prepared before doing anything.
...
The next day.
Early in the morning, a group of Luoyun Island family heads, including a rough man and a skinny man, gathered in the lobby of the Shen family.
The green-skinned armored soldier, who is the head of the Shen family, sat at the bottom like other family heads, because at this time, the two magic monks were sitting at the top, one with disheveled hair and wrinkles on his face, and the other was about forty years old and had a fierce face.
The two wore white Taoist robes with a golden cloud embroidered on their chests. This symbol is known to everyone in Tianxinghai, and it is the unique mark of Miaoyun Sect.
The heads of the Luoyun Island families looked at the two of them solemnly, not daring to be disrespectful.
After sitting quietly for a long time, the middle-aged man with a fierce face raised his head and looked outside the hall. Then he looked at everyone expressionlessly and said, "It seems that the worshippers invited by the heads of the families are not punctual. Now it is almost noon. Do you still want us to wait?"
The middle-aged man's voice was not loud, but it made the heads of the families feel like they were walking on thin ice, and their hearts trembled.
"Senior Xu, please calm down. That person promised us that he would come to meet up today. Maybe he was delayed by something. Please wait a little longer. I believe he will arrive soon."
The green-skinned soldier smiled awkwardly.
Although he said so, he was in a state of anxiety. In addition to worrying that the black-robed monk would break his promise, he was even more afraid that the two people in front of him would be angry. Their families would be in great trouble.
"Hmph, a mere casual cultivator dares to be so arrogant. I have given him enough face by waiting here for a whole morning. If he doesn't come, don't blame me for finding an opportunity to destroy his mountain gate and flatten his cave later!" The old man snorted in dissatisfaction.
The heads of the families were silent for a while, and they all looked out of the hall in anticipation.
Now that the treasure has been given to someone else, if the other party doesn't come, their loss will be great!
"Sorry, I kept you waiting for a long time."
At this moment, a calm voice came, and the heads of the families immediately looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a black-robed cultivator wearing a cloak and a black scarf covering his face slowly walking in.
It was Ye Chunyang!
