Chapter 501: Anomaly
After a moment of silence in the air.
"Hehehe! Taoist Friend Qin's Demon Infant is condensed from his own Body Refining True Core, heart and breath connected, originally one and the same, even if something goes wrong, he will be able to sense it immediately."
"And Venerable Green Emperor split off a wisp of his Spirit Soul, collected Spirit Infant materials, and then refined a Second Nascent Soul, the difference between them is quite large. So, this kind of situation shouldn't occur, ehehehe!" Old Demon Qing Yang explained awkwardly, clearly even he wasn't sure.
"Moreover, Little Friend Qin's situation was urgent at the time, if he hadn't done that, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to survive the Earthly Fiend Tribulation of Six-Nines, and the decision was entirely in your hands."
Qin Ming's eyes flickered as he listened, it was indeed a risky attempt at the time, which led to him mistakenly and luckily condensing the Demon Infant.
However, he didn't like things being outside of his control.
Therefore, Qin Ming said indifferently, "In that case, I still can't let the Demon Infant stay outside to develop freely, to avoid encountering any uncontrollable factors, I still need to take it back as soon as possible."
It was still very simple for him to take back the Demon Infant, after all, with the Nine Heavens Azure Origin True Talisman, it could be completed in the blink of an eye.
Thinking of this, Qin Ming already had a plan in mind.
No wonder this Old Devil Old Demon Qing Yang was always evasive every time Qin Ming asked about the Azure Origin Sect, because he knew in advance that there was a precedent for this matter.
"I, Qin, see that you Old devil have slept comfortably enough these days, it's time for you to go back to the Bloodflayer Pagoda to sober up."
After Qin Ming finished speaking, he grabbed Old Demon Qing Yang's Soul Body and threw him directly into the Bloodflayer Pagoda.
"Ah! Little Friend Qin, don't misunderstand This Old Man, everything I do is for your own good!" Old Demon Qing Yang shouted inside, his voice growing fainter and fainter.
The Devouring Heaven Rat pouted its little mouth, "Hmph! Serves you right!"
Then it diligently kneaded Qin Ming's shoulders.
Qin Ming sat in the carriage, directly activating the Ancient Talisman, and summoned Demon Lord Seven Sorrows to his side.
Immediately afterwards, the Demon Infant flew out from Demon Lord Seven Sorrows' body and directly returned to the Black Lotus in Qin Ming's Middle Dantian.
Demon Lord Seven Sorrows' body immediately lost its dominance and slumped to the ground with a thud.
Qin Ming immediately cast the Thorns Technique on the corpse, transforming it into a Mid-Core Formation Stage blood bead the size of a fist.
With a wave of his hand, he collected all the treasures that the Demon Infant had plundered from the Blood Refinement Demon Sect over the years, taking them all into his possession.
Then he buried the demon corpse under the Thunder Origin Demon Jujube Tree.
As for the Blood Refinement Demon Sect's Demon Lord Seven Sorrows' innocent disappearance, no matter how hard the Demonic Path racked their brains, they would never associate it with Qin Ming.
In the original plan, Qin Ming also intended to have the Demon Infant seize the bodies of several upper echelons of sects in the Blood Abyss World, imitating the previous method to plunder resources, but it seemed that this could not continue.
Qin Ming threw this demon body to the Thunder Origin Demon Jujube Tree. As the Mid-Core Formation Stage demon corpse was buried and absorbed nutrients, the Demonic Energy on the Demon Jujube Tree surged and changed.
Another advancement occurred.
The pitch black Demonic Energy on it not only became even more terrifying, but the aura of the entire Demon Jujube Tree became even more bizarre.
Immediately afterwards, it grew taller by more than two feet, and bloomed hundreds of Pitch Black Demon Flowers.
Subsequently, three golden Entries appeared in Qin Ming's sight:
[Name]: Origin Demon Jujube[Entry]: Nascent Soul Qi and Blood x5 (Maturity 2%)
[Name]: Origin Demon Jujube[Entry]: Time Like an Arrow x5 (Maturity 1%)
[Name]: Origin Demon Jujube[Entry]: Source Demon Qi x5 (Maturity 2%)
"Origin Demon Jujube, Fourth Rank Mid-Grade Spirit Plant, after absorbing so many corpses, this Demon Plant actually mutated and advanced…"
This kind of mutated Spirit Plant was also recorded in the "Spirit Wood Transformation Classic", so Qin Ming recognized it at a glance.
The Origin Demon Jujube is an extremely sought-after item for Demonic Path Cultivators, not only is it of great help to their own cultivating, but it is also fatally attractive to those demon monsters living in the Demon Realm.
This Demon Jujube Tree's bottom has already become a burial ground for many Nascent Soul Demonic Cultivators. In terms of fertilizer, Qin Ming has never been stingy.
Subsequently.
He also threw that Mid-Core Formation Stage blood bead to his Natal Spirit Plant, the Evergreen Immortal Vine.
As the black vines danced, silver flower buds bloomed again.
It could be seen that this Mid-Core Formation Stage blood bead was comparable to five portions of 'Yi Wood Essence' produced by Alchemy.
Three golden Entries also appeared before Qin Ming's eyes:
[Name]: Evergreen Immortal Vine[Entry]: Core Formation Spiritual Power x (Maturity 1%)
[Name]: Evergreen Immortal Vine[Entry]: Time Like an Arrow x (Maturity 2%)
[Name]: Evergreen Immortal Vine[Entry]: Abundant lifespan x (Maturity 2%)
...
On the other side, Blood Abyss World.
As the Demon Infant left Demon Lord Seven Sorrows' body, in the depths of the Blood Refinement Demon Sect, a soul lamp in the Offering Hall suddenly went out!
In the hall, the Long-Eyebrow Old Man in hemp robes suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of sharp light bursting out from his cloudy gaze.
An astonishing aura erupted from his body, attracting the Spirit Qi between heaven and earth, instantly sweeping across the entire Blood Refinement Demon Sect.
A Light of Escape of blood color rapidly descended to the entrance of the Offering Hall. As the Light of Escape dissipated, a refined middle-aged Cultivator in a turban appeared, it was Yan Shu Demon Lord.
He was extremely flustered at the moment, bowing respectfully to the Long-Eyebrow Old Man in the hall, "Disciple pays respects to Ancestor!!"
"Elder Seven Sorrows' soul lamp has gone out, go and investigate what happened?" the Long-Eyebrow Old Man ordered in a cold tone.
The temperature in the air suddenly dropped to freezing point, one could imagine the Long-Eyebrow Old Man's anger.
Buzz~
Yan Shu Demon Lord's mind went blank upon hearing this, and he said with an expression of disbelief, "Elder Seven Sorrows has fallen, how is this possible?"
"He just came out of seclusion some time ago, and even had an exchange with me for some time."
"Did he mention where he was going?" the Long-Eyebrow Old Man asked.
Yan Shu Demon Lord replied, "Reporting to Ancestor, Elder Seven Sorrows only came out to inquire about the recent situation, and then said he was descending to the Human Realm…"
"This matter reveals some abnormality, the Blood Ring Curse Seal was not even triggered when Seven Sorrows died, and even This Ancestor cannot lock onto the location of his fall," the Long-Eyebrow Old Man said with some solemnity.
"Yes! Disciple will investigate immediately." Yan Shu Demon Lord did not dare to linger any longer, and quickly gathered his men to go and handle the matter.
The Great Hall returned to silence, filled with a thick baleful aura.
After all, the sudden fall of a Mid-Core Formation Stage Demon Lord was also a not small blow to a large Sect like the Blood Refinement Demon Sect.
For a time, panic spread within the Demon Sect, and everyone became on edge.
...
Qin Ming, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief after taking back the Demon Infant.
He disliked unexpected problems the most.
Another half month passed.
Qin Ming's Soaring Sky Treasure Carriage drove into the depths of the Beast Roar Mountain Range, arriving at Dusk Glow Mountain of the Silver Moon Sky Fox Clan.
He sent a Sound Transmission to Yue Ling Yan, but learned that she was currently at Accumulating Thunder Mountain of the Mountain Giant Ape Clan discussing matters, and would not be back for at least ten days or half a month.
The Little Silver Fox also looked aggrieved and pitiful, it seemed that she missed her mother very much after not seeing her for so long.
However, going to Accumulating Thunder Mountain and then returning to Moon Gazing Island would be a long detour.
"Little Silver Moon, Fellow Taoist Ling Yan will come to Moon Gazing Island to see you in a few days after she finishes her business, is it alright if we go back to the island first?" Qin Ming asked with a smile.
The Little Silver Fox shook her three fluffy silver tails and obediently replied, "This Little Girl will listen to Senior Qin's arrangements in everything, act. Actually, I don't miss Mother that much…"
She said so, but her expression had already betrayed her inner thoughts.
Qin Ming immediately drove the Soaring Sky Treasure Carriage and continued flying towards Moon Gazing Island.
...
...
Mountain Giant Ape Clan, Accumulating Thunder Mountain.
"Taoist Friend Ancient Mountain, Taoist Friend Peacock Xuan, let's talk about this much for today, This Palace still has matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first." Yue Ling Yan stood up and bid farewell to Gu Shan Demon Saint and Peacock Saintess.
Before leaving, Gu Shan Demon Saint said to Yue Ling Yan, "This time, the Demonic Path of the Blood Abyss World has been quiet for a long time, they must be brewing an even greater conspiracy, Taoist Friend Qin is right, our Demon Clan still cannot relax our vigilance and must prepare early to welcome the second Realm Descent."
"You are familiar with Taoist Friend Qin, please also help to inquire about the recent movements of the Demonic Path."
"Taoist Friend Ancient Mountain, rest assured, This Palace is just about to make a trip to Moon Gazing Island." Yue Ling Yan nodded readily.
Afterwards.
She summoned the Azure Luan Treasure Carriage, transforming into an azure rainbow, and flew towards the direction of Wei Nation.
Several days later.
Yue Ling Yan in the Azure Luan Treasure Carriage frowned slightly, she suddenly sensed Spirit Qi fluctuations from a Combat Method/Spell Duel hundreds of miles away.
She immediately released her Demon Sense, and everything within a radius of hundreds of miles was clearly presented before her eyes.
However, she was also surprised after seeing clearly.
Because the people involved in the spell duel were unexpectedly Mo Lingwei of Moon Gazing Island, and Wei Wuya of the Four Nations Alliance.
The two of them had previously discovered several abnormal Void Anomalies at the border between Wei Nation and the Beast Roar Mountain Range, and secretly followed them all the way here, but they were ambushed by the Demonic Path and were in a dangerous situation.
"Quickly kill all these Human race to silence them, no news can leak out, otherwise if Demon Lord Master blames us, none of us will want to live!"
A blood-robed Demonic Markings Late Golden Core Stage Demonic Cultivator was controlling three Mid Golden Core Stage Demon Armor Corpses, suppressing Wei Wuya and Mo Lingwei, causing them to retreat steadily.
Even Wei Wuya's Sword Dao Divine Ability was sharp and fierce, he still suffered greatly against the Demon Armor Corpses.
His Facial Expression was pale, and two shocking blood holes were clawed out on his chest. He changed the hand seals in his hands and used Sword Art to entangle with the Demonic Cultivator opposite him.
"Fairy Mo, I'll hold them back, take the opportunity to escape, and quickly send the news back to the Southern Wilderness!"
Wei Wuya spat out blood, blocked the Demon Armor Corpse's attack, and quickly sent a Sound Transmission to Mo Lingwei.
Mo Lingwei was also covered in wounds, but she was also a resolute person, knowing the priority of the matter.
After receiving Wei Wuya's Sound Transmission, she prepared to seize the opportunity to break out.
However, at the next moment.
Ripples suddenly spread out in the Void nearby, and the surrounding Spirit Qi began to tremble violently, a Spirit Pressure of Nascent Soul Level descended with a bang.
At the same time, the temperature in the air suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Even the forest vegetation within a few miles radius was covered with a thick layer of ice.
Those low-level cultivators of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World were instantly frozen into ice sculptures, and fell from the sky before they could even scream.
A figure in a black gauze dress walked out slowly from the Void ripples with bare feet, descending with an attitude of indifference to everything.
The Late Golden Core Stage Demonic Cultivator, upon seeing this person's arrival, hurriedly gave up chasing and stepped forward to bow with utmost respect:
"Subordinate respectfully welcomes Blue Ice Elder's arrival!!"
