Chapter 709: Devouring the Seed of the Way
The heavenly voice was gentle, and no one knew where it came from. Xuanyuan knew that this person must be an extremely terrifying existence, but as long as he had no ill intentions towards him, there was nothing to be afraid of.
He did not say anything more. He just stood to the side and watched Shi Yan, who was immersed in refining the divine leaves and divine liquid.
At this moment, divine light flowed all over her body, and there was an indescribable holiness about her. Her fair face had an aura of compassion, and the fragrance of medicine filled the air. Her Qi and blood began to gradually become rich and powerful. On the surface of her skin, there were lines that looked like Blue Dragon patterns that wandered and intertwined, deriving the mysterious Great Path of the Blue Dragon. Within them were fragments of the Great Path of the Blue Dragon that the peerless divine medicine had comprehended herself. They were extremely precious and difficult to find in the world. There was also the essence of the peerless divine medicine that had been nurtured for countless years, possessing infinite wonders. Even the Great Pig coveted it and had always wanted it, but he could not get it. One could imagine how rare it was.
In the process of refining the divine medicine, Shi Yan's pale skin began to gradually turn dark and thick, glossy and soft. Her face was radiant, and every inch of her skin began to become young and full of vitality. Her skin was firm and translucent, and she began to slowly return to the Shi Yan of the past. Seeing this scene before him, Xuanyuan was overjoyed. The boulder that had been hanging in his heart had finally been lifted.
He very much wanted to reunite with Shi Yan at this moment, but this was an important place of the Demon Race, and it was not appropriate. Suppressing the impulse in his heart, Xuanyuan did not say anything more. He had too many treasures on him, and the terrifying existences in the Demon Province Dynasty had different opinions and factions. If he revealed his true body, it would not be a blessing, but a disaster. It was good that Shi Yan was safe. If not for the fact that he had something to do, Xuanyuan would have left immediately. This was not a place to stay for long.
Refining the divine liquid and divine leaf was not something that could be done in a short period of time. Xuanyuan calmed himself down and sat to the side, waiting quietly. A day later, Shi Moyan returned to the Asura Ancient God Realm. He bowed to Xuanyuan and said,
"Greetings, Imperial Granduncle."
"Yes, what's wrong?" Xuanyuan asked.
The person who attacked Imperial Granduncle that day was Shi Zhong's subordinate. His name was Shi Jing. He wore a human skin mask and replaced Shi Zhong. This person was loyal and devoted to his master. Perhaps it was because he knew that Shi Zhong was infatuated with Shi Yan that he did something foolish. During this period, Shi Zhong was out searching for immortal treasures to extend Princess Shi Yan's life. He has not returned, so I, Shi Jing, wore a human skin mask and stood guard in the Imperial Clan Court, helping him deceive everyone, "Shi Moyan said.
Xuanyuan looked at Shi Moyan and knew that he was not deliberately protecting Shi Zhong. This matter concerned the future safety of the Shi family. They could not leave someone who could threaten their descendants alive. However, Xuanyuan did not believe that this was really the case. Shi Zhong's words and actions that day were very sophisticated and had a great demeanor. It was difficult for ordinary people to imitate him, especially the aura of power that he had when he raised his hand. It was not something that ordinary people could imitate. This was an aura that needed to be cultivated from a young age. It was an aura that was naturally formed when one was in a high position.
Although this was what Xuanyuan suspected, terrifying figures had already warned Xuanyuan not to interfere with the internal affairs of the Demon State Dynasty. So, Xuanyuan did not say much and just responded with silence.
"Imperial Granduncle, I have already killed Shi Jing and imprisoned his soul in the Nine Hells. Shi Zhong left his post without permission and almost made a huge mistake. I have already summoned him back and told him to apologize to Imperial Granduncle. I have also demoted him by three ranks to see how he behaves. As for Shi Zongling, he was also responsible for his negligence. I have ordered him to reflect on his mistakes in the Demon Realm for three months. Is Imperial Granduncle satisfied with how I have handled this?"
Shi Moyan was cautious. This Imperial Granduncle was extremely powerful. Although he was not very powerful, he had a peerless treasure. Naturally, Shi Moyan did not want to offend him. Moreover, his seniority was there, so he had to do this.
"Forget it. Since this is the result of your thorough investigation, whether it is true or that Shi Zhong is too cunning and can find someone to take the blame, I don't want to argue anymore. There is no need for him to apologize to me. As long as Shi Yan is well, I will go into seclusion. Everything in this world has nothing to do with me. You all go do your own things." Xuanyuan believed in his own guess. That Shi Zhong was indeed not simple. He could actually do this after the East Window incident.
"Yes, Imperial Granduncle." Shi Moyan's expression froze. He did not say anything more and left.
Seven days and seven nights passed. The moment Shi Yan woke up from refining the divine medicine, her body emanated the majestic aura of a Life Immortal. It had an extremely terrifying power. Xuanyuan's heart trembled.
"What is going on? Before, Shi Yan was only a Seventh Revolution Fairy. Now she has stepped directly into the peak of the Life Immortal Realm!"
"I don't know why either. Perhaps it is because of the power contained in the divine liquid and the divine leaf that allowed her special body's power to soar!" The Greedy Old Man replied.
"Does Shi Yan not need to go through a trial?" Xuanyuan was shocked. With Shi Yan's talent, how could she not go through a trial when she stepped into the Life Immortal Realm?
"Shi Yan has a kind heart. Heaven is merciful and did not send any tribulations. Heaven and earth can bear witness to her heart. This is also why we support Shi Yan." The mysterious heavenly voice came again. Xuanyuan heard it and was shocked. He did not expect it to be like this.
"Shi Yan thanks Imperial Granduncle." Shi Yan stood up. Her purple robe fluttered in the wind. Her long black hair fluttered in the wind. Her smile was pure. She had two dimples and a pair of small canine teeth. She was lively and cheerful.
"Hehe, no need to thank me. Shi Yan, in the future, you must think about yourself first before thinking about others. If you can't even take care of yourself, how can you help others?" Xuanyuan said in a tone of a senior lecturing a junior.
"Shi Yan understands, Imperial Granduncle." Shi Yan's smiling face was so beautiful that it made people's hearts tremble.
"Shi Yan, show me the nine Supreme Life Prolonging Celestial Pills that you refined." Xuanyuan's mouth was filled with a terrifying sneer. Obviously, Shi Yan also felt Xuanyuan's hostility. She shook her head and said:
"Imperial Granduncle, are you trying to tamper with the Celestial Pills?"
"What a smart child. Give them to me." Xuanyuan smiled.
"No, Shi Yan doesn't want to do these harmful things." Shi Yan rejected Xuanyuan.
"I won't harm them directly. I can assure you of this. I just want to restrain them. If they take your elixir and do evil things, or even kill your loved ones, what will you do?" Xuanyuan said. "That's right. Xuanyuan, what will you do then? Won't you be ruined?" Xuanyuan said.
"Shi Yan, you should believe in Imperial Granduncle. If they don't come out to do evil, I won't do anything to them. Think about it, if you give them Life Prolonging Celestial Pills and cause more people to die, how do you think you can salvage the situation? At that time, you will be the cause of the great slaughter. So, when you give them more life, you also have to restrict them! "
Shi Yan was very hesitant. She felt that this' Imperial Granduncle 'in front of her was not without reason. However, this was still not good. At this moment, a heavenly voice resounded in Shi Yan's mind.
"Lao Ai, believe him. We always say what we say. If he says he won't, then he naturally won't. Even if you don't believe him, you should believe us. Moreover, he just saved you, so he naturally won't do anything to make things difficult for you or ruin your reputation."
"Shi Yan doesn't mean that. Okay …" Shi Yan had no choice but to take out nine jade bottles.
Xu Anyuan opened one of the jade bottles, and a divine light soared into the sky. The Life Prolonging Medicinal Power contained within made people feel comfortable all over. Just a whiff of it could increase one's lifespan by a few decades. This was refined using Shi Yan's life essence, as well as various immortal treasures and spirit medicines. It was incomparably precious, comparable to a supreme divine liquid.
"Greedy Old Man, is there any method that can make them not notice after they consume and refine it? Moreover, it will silently hide in their bodies?" Xu Anyuan frowned and asked in his heart.
"There is indeed, but if the other party's strength has reached the realm of the ancient sages, I'm afraid it will be useless. It can still be used against emperors." The Greedy Old Man smiled sinisterly.
"Alright, forget it. Tell me what method it is first." Xu Anyuan was very excited. If these nine Life Prolonging Celestial Pills were so easy to obtain, then he wouldn't be Xu Anyuan. If these people didn't do anything evil, then he would let them live with hatred for the rest of their lives.
"This method is called the Devouring Dao Seed. It can give people the illusion of developing a Dao Seed, and this Devouring Dao Seed will grow in their bodies day by day. The stronger the host, the more terrifying the Devouring Dao Seed's power will become. The host can use the Devouring Dao Seed to kill the enemy. At the same time, if the person using the Devouring Dao Seed explodes the Dao Seed … Hehehe." The Greedy Old Man smiled sinisterly as he spoke.
"Hehehe, alright, then I'll use this Devouring Dao Seed …" Xu Anyuan smiled even more sinisterly. Shi Yan was watching from the side with fear. Feeling the fear in Shi Yan's eyes, Xu Anyuan smiled.
"Don't worry, Shi Yan, I won't do anything that people will criticize you for. I'm only doing this to guard against these people. You can't have the heart to harm others, but you can't have the heart to guard against others …"
"Yes, Shi Yan understands. Imperial Uncle, you must promise Shi Yan that if they don't do anything bad, don't …" Shi Yan said.
