Chapter 212 Black Lotus Takes Shape
Hearing this, Liu Yuanchen was a little worried.
Although he was not sure when the demonic black lotus would take shape, if he was allowed to grow, it was estimated that the time should not be far away.
The demon clan wanted to deal with Crouching Tiger Peak. Once the war started, a large number of masters would be needed.
At that time, there might be no one available here.
It would be difficult to succeed if we rashly attacked the leader of the Black Lotus Saint Envoy.
"Should we delay this matter? I'm worried that the Black Lotus will take shape at the same time as the demon clan attacks Crouching Tiger Peak.
By that time, I'm afraid there won't be enough manpower."
Zhao Hong waved his hand: "No need, the demon clan will have its own people to deal with it, so there's no need for me and your second uncle to risk our lives.
Even the Black Lotus Saint Envoy has special people to deal with it.
You just need to fish out the fish, and don't worry about the rest.
If the Divine Court can't even spare this little manpower, there's no need for it to exist. Let's disband it as soon as possible."
With the guarantee of his own master, Liu Yuanchen was relieved.
The Divine Court has enough capital to dare to open two fronts at the same time, so there is no need for him to worry.
In the following days, Liu Yuanchen gradually relaxed his control over the Black Lotus Saint Envoy Wu Xiang.
The prototype of the demonic black lotus on the spiritual vein of Panlong Mountain grew faster and faster.
...
Two months later, three gods wearing golden armor suddenly came to the Divine Realm.
They walked to the Dongyang Divine Mansion in the spiritual realm, and the leading god bowed and saluted: "Xia Linjiang of the Divine Court Army, I want to see the Dongyang Divine Lord."
Hearing this, Liu Yuanchen was quite surprised.
This person should have been a member of the royal family of the Great Xia Divine Dynasty, a noble with a title and a fiefdom, and could serve as a god in the Divine Court after his death.
This person served in the Divine Court Army and must have been a general in his lifetime.
Liu Yuanchen did not go out to greet him, but sent the Divine Dao clone to deal with it.
A ghost under the command of the Dongyang Divine Mansion invited the three people into the Dongyang Divine Mansion Temple, and the Divine Dao clone sat in the main seat.
The three gods bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Lord God."
The divine clone waved his hand: "No need to be polite. What are you three doing in my Dongyang Divine Palace?"
Xia Linjiang bowed and said: "Reply to Lord God, we are here under the order of the City God of the Capital of Chihuanghou State, and we are ordered to temporarily stay in the spiritual realm of Lord God."
When he said this, Liu Yuanchen understood it at that time.
I had discussed with the City God Zhong Xiaoren before that Dongyang Divine Palace would assist in the defense of Wohu Peak.
In order to prevent the various divine spiritual realms in Chihuanghou State from being affected when the Shaking Dragon Formation was launched, he asked me to cooperate.
The way of cooperation is that Dongyang Divine Palace canonize the mountain god of Wohu Peak and deploy the Divine Court Army in the divine spiritual realm of Dongyang Divine Palace.
If there is something on Wohu Peak, this side can directly support it.
At that time, Liu Yuanchen canonized the mountain god of Wohu Peak, and his uncle and Zhong Xiaoren also arranged the formation between the two spiritual realms to strengthen the incense channel.
After that, there was no movement from Zhong Xiaoren.
I didn't expect that it would take so long for someone to be sent over.
Liu Yuanchen waved his hand: "I have discussed this matter with Zhong Chenghuang a long time ago. There are two barracks in my Dongyang Divine Mansion that are temporarily vacant. You can stay in them temporarily."
Dongyang Divine Mansion has a three-in-three-out layout, that is, three three-in-one courtyards are connected side by side.
There is a barracks in each of the east and west courtyards of the second courtyard.
However, Dongyang Divine Mansion has not yet developed. In addition to the Liu family of Dongyang Lake, there is only a little territory around Panlong Lake.
It is not realistic to support a large number of ghost soldiers in such a small place.
Xia Linjiang did not want to live in Dongyang Divine Mansion: "Thank you for your kindness, God. I carry the barracks with me. As long as I have a place to stay in the spirit realm of God, it will be fine."
Liu Yuanchen understood that he also had a barracks in his hand, which was a divine weapon.
Many divine soldiers can hide in the barracks without taking up too much space.
If the barracks are high enough, they can even accommodate tens of thousands of divine soldiers.
The Shenting Army is directly under the jurisdiction of the Shenting, and the salaries are also directly issued by the Shenting.
They are stationed here, and Liu Yuanchen does not have to pay any price. They are just a group of free bodyguards.
"Then you can station at the entrance of the incense road leading to Crouching Tiger Peak. If you have any needs, just come to me."
Xia Linjiang bowed and said, "Thank you, God."
...
After sending Xia Linjiang away, Liu Yuanchen's body focused on Wu Xiang, the Holy Envoy of the Black Lotus.
For two months, this guy has been working diligently.
Every day, he spends a lot of time releasing magic energy to nourish the magic black lotus in the spiritual veins of Panlong Mountain.
Liu Yuanchen no longer extracts the magic energy from the black lotus, and this thing grows very fast.
In just two months, it is about to take shape.
At this time, Wu Xiang sat cross-legged in the cave, and his whole body was wrapped in a layer of black air.
On his chest, there was a black lotus phantom made of black gas.
The black lotus phantom continuously released black gas, which slowly seeped into the ground.
In Liu Yuanchen's perception, the black lotus phantom near the spiritual vein had become very solid.
However, the lotus petals had not yet fully unfolded, and the lotus pod in the middle had not been exposed.
The black lotus continuously drew spiritual energy from the spiritual vein, slowly growing stronger.
Under the urging of Wu Xiang's magic energy, the petals of the black lotus were blooming one by one.
This phantom was not like the legendary black jade lotus platform, which had three flowers and nine petals, that is, the petals were divided into three layers, with nine petals in each layer.
This black lotus of magic energy had only one layer of petals, with a total of nine petals.
I don't know if Wu Xiang's magic energy was insufficient, or if this black lotus could only grow to this extent.
An hour later, the last petal slowly opened.
The black mist on Wu Xiang's body was restrained, and his face was full of joy.
"The black lotus has taken shape, and I have finally completed the task."
"After getting the reward promised by the superior, I will soon be able to break through the Condensation Realm.
When I reach the Condensation Realm, I can officially become a One Flower Saint Envoy.
I can develop temporary Saint Envoys and let them perform tasks, and I don't have to take such risks anymore."
Hearing this, Liu Yuanchen felt a little strange in his heart, and it turned out that the Black Lotus Holy Church was still playing the routine of pyramid selling.
After becoming a One Flower Saint Envoy, you can develop downlines.
According to this, there should be two and three flower saints above him.
Wu Xiang stood up and was about to go out, but found that he was weak all over, and cold sweat was pouring down his head.
This guy was too impatient. In order to make the magic black lotus take shape as soon as possible, he consumed too much magic energy.
At this time, he was a little exhausted.
He was on Panlong Mountain. As long as Liu Yuanchen didn't move him, he would be very safe.
But with his current state, he will surely die if he leaves Panlong Mountain.
Wu Xiang took out a black pill and swallowed it.
Then he sat cross-legged in meditation, constantly practicing his skills and recovering his mana.
At this time, Liu Yuanchen took out a jade pendant.
This jade pendant was exactly what Zhao Hong had given him before. It contained a method left by a Shinto monk, specifically for tracking.
Liu Yuanchen crushed the jade pendant, and an energy very close to spiritual energy slowly overflowed from the jade pendant.
"This method is really secretive. If I didn't have the authority of the Heavenly Dao, I really couldn't tell the difference between this energy and spiritual energy."
He used the authority of the Heavenly Dao Divine Realm to control this energy to fly out of Dongyang Shenfu and fly to Wu Xiang's cave.
At this time, Wu Xiang was still practicing his skills and recovering his mana.
With him being a small Qi Hai realm monk, he couldn't sense this energy at all.
When he was practicing his skills to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy, the special energy in the jade pendant drilled into his body.
Liu Yuanchen immediately took out the jade talisman and sent a message to his master, telling him that the black lotus had taken shape and he could close the net.
Not long after, Zhao Hong appeared in the Shendao Spirit Realm of Dongyang Shenfu with an old man in a black robe.
Liu Yuanchen entered the spiritual realm and bowed: "Greetings, Master, and Senior."
Zhao Hong chuckled: "No need to be polite, how is the little follower now?"
Liu Yuanchen replied: "Not long ago, the Black Lotus Saint Envoy cultivated the black lotus of demonic energy.
His magic power is exhausted, and he is meditating to restore his magic power.
When he recovers, he should leave Panlong Lake Market.
I have sent all the energy in the jade pendant you gave me before into its body."
The old man in black robe nodded slightly: "The little guy is quite efficient, worthy of being the disciple of Brother Dan Wang. I wonder if you are interested in joining my Demon Suppression Temple?"
Hearing this, Liu Yuanchen was a little surprised that this black-robed old man was actually the same generation as his master, so he should be a high-level member of the Demon Suppression Temple.
Zhao Hong introduced: "This is the chief officer of the Heavenly Punishment Department, known as Zhenhai God, and he is of the same generation as your master."
The Demon Suppression Temple has the Demon Suppression Department and the Heavenly Punishment Department under its jurisdiction. He is the chief officer of the Heavenly Punishment Department and can be ranked at least in the top five in the Demon Suppression Temple.
Such a person actually ran to the Chihuang Marquisate to deal with the Black Lotus Holy Church, which shows how much the Divine Court and the Great Xia Dynasty value the Black Lotus Holy Church.
Liu Yuanchen also hurriedly saluted: "Meet Master Zhenhai."
Zhenhai God nodded slightly: "No need to be polite, you have become a true god of the heavenly way at a young age, and you have a bright future!"
Talking to such an old senior, Liu Yuanchen felt very stressed.
"Master, you are too kind. I just happened to be here by chance.
This Panlong Mountain was originally a barren mountain. It is because I built the Dongyang Divine Mansion here that it has become what it is today.
Therefore, I have also been recognized by Panlong Mountain."
Zhenhai Divine Venerable did not mention the matter of Tiandao Zhenshen again: "Little guy, you take out a wisp of demonic energy from the demonic black lotus.
I want to see if the Black Lotus Demon Cult has become a spirit."
Liu Yuanchen followed his words and took out a wisp of demonic energy from the demonic black lotus rooted in the spiritual vein.
Afterwards, he handed the demonic energy to Zhenhai Divine Venerable.
A ball of water-blue flame surged out of Zhenhai Divine Venerable's hand and began to burn the wisp of demonic energy.
This water-blue flame did not have a trace of fire attribute energy, but instead carried a strong water attribute energy.
This flame should be the natal spiritual fire of Zhenhai Divine Venerable, which was condensed from his own spirit.
With the natal spiritual fire, whether it is refining pills or refining tools, it will be much more convenient, and it can also be used against the enemy.
In the inheritance of the Eight Desolate Pavilion, there is also a way to condense the life spirit fire, but it requires the spirit stage to practice.
The demonic energy was constantly dispersed under the burning of the flame, and soon, the flame turned black.
Then, the black gradually faded, and the flame turned aqua blue again.
Zhenhai God took a deep breath: "This demonic energy is indeed stronger. Compared with more than 4,000 years ago, it has increased by at least 30%.
The source of the demonic energy carried by these minions is the black jade lotus platform.
As the demonic energy increases, the black jade lotus platform must also be improved.
The original black jade lotus platform tortured out had three flowers and nine petals, and now it has been improved. It is 80% likely to have four flowers and nine petals."
Hearing this, Liu Yuanchen thought secretly in his heart.
As a high-level official of the Demon-Suppressing Temple, Zhenhai God must know a lot of inside information.
He said that the petals of the black jade lotus platform can be increased, which must be supported by accurate intelligence.
If the black jade lotus platform is a refined spiritual treasure, it should not have more petals.
Now it seems that this black jade lotus platform is really possible to be transformed by spiritual roots.
While he was thinking, Wu Xiang's mana recovered to some extent.
He packed up a few things and left the cave without even putting away the formations he had arranged.
Just as Liu Yuanchen was about to remind him, Lord Zhenhai had already sensed it.
"The little guy has made some noise, Zhao Hong, please come with me."
Zhao Hong bowed and accepted the order, and then the two of them left the Shinto spiritual realm, hid their bodies, and followed Wu Xiang all the way south.
After sending them away, Liu Yuanchen focused on the demonic black lotus next to the spiritual veins.
At this time, all the petals of the black lotus are fully unfolded, revealing the lotus pod in the middle.
This black lotus was continuously absorbing spiritual energy from the spiritual veins. Liu Yuanchen originally thought that this thing would release a small amount of demonic energy.
Unexpectedly, this guy could only get in and out.
At the door, Liu Yuanchen soon discovered that several black roots sprouted from the bottom of the black lotus and penetrated into the spiritual veins.
There are roots directly connected to the spiritual veins, and the speed at which Black Lotus absorbs spiritual energy skyrockets.
The roots continued to extend, and even grew lotus root whips.
Many roots grew out of the nodes of the lotus root whip, and even black lotus leaves grew out.
Liu Yuanchen was horrified: "Is it possible that this demonic black lotus can reproduce?
If it were allowed to grow a few more demonic black lotuses, would that be a big deal? "
Although he can refine demonic energy, he has his limits.
If this black lotus continues to grow, I may not be able to suppress this thing.
Once this happens, I'm afraid the entire Panlong Mountain will suffer.
Thinking of this, he quickly pulled out a fist-sized black energy from the demonic black lotus.
After losing a burst of demonic energy, the black lotus instantly withered.
The lotus root whip and lotus leaves stopped growing, especially the lotus leaves, which showed signs of withering.
Liu Yuanchen breathed a sigh of relief, at least he could suppress the black lotus now.
The black energy the size of a fist entered his body and went straight to the sea of consciousness.
He had also been prepared, and the immortal seeds had already transformed into the images of the ginseng fruit tree and the Jumang ancestral witch.
As soon as the black energy entered the sea of consciousness, Liu Yuanchen was introduced into the shadow of the ginseng fruit tree.
Liu Yuanchen first used the Shenmu Shentian Gong. A quarter of an hour later, streams of extremely high-quality mana poured out from the ginseng fruit tree.
He introduced this mana into the sea of qi in the middle Dantian. After this mana was integrated into the sea of qi, it actually caused the sea of qi to expand.
However, under the operation of Liu Yuanchen's skills, the extra mana was quickly converted into true energy.
This demonic energy is simply a tonic. Even if you take the Condensing Yuan Pill used by monks in the Condensing Yuan Realm to improve your cultivation, the effect is much worse than this demonic energy.
Liu Yuanchen thought to himself: "This demonic energy has been refined less than half, and it can withstand my ten days of hard work.
This is not a demonic black lotus. This is simply a gift from heaven and earth! "
Of course, the ginseng fruit tree's ability to refine demonic energy is not very strong.
Although part of the mana was converted, the remaining demonic energy was even more difficult to deal with.
Liu Yuanchen directly sent the remaining demonic energy into the Jumangzu Shazhen Shape Diagram, and then ran the Jumang Ninggang Jue.
Half an hour later, this demonic energy was completely refined, transformed into a large amount of Gang Qi, and blended into the lower Dantian.
