Gulp.
The blazing sun hung high in the sky. Jiang Li took a breath of the sunlight. As he breathed, the sunlight seemed to condense into flames and was swallowed by him. It was warm.
He was cultivating and comprehending the supreme mysteries of the Great Emperor Heavenly Seal.
In the cultivation world, the blazing sun hanging in the sky was a huge luminous body formed by the combination of heaven's will and countless dimensional energies. It was many times stronger than the sun. Jiang Li could also absorb sunlight to replenish his body's energy, just like a plant.
He lazily swallowed the sunlight and then lay down on a comfortable meadow on a grassland to rest and relax.
Actually, he enjoyed life in the cultivation world. The land was vast and the resources were abundant. He was free and carefree. He hated war, killing, and bloodshed. Unfortunately, he had no choice. Humans had to fight for a place to survive in the universe and strengthen their race. They had to kill and fight non-stop. Since the birth of humans, they had been accompanied by war. Ancient myths, Xuanyuan against Chiyou, King Wu against King Zhou, the Spring and Autumn Period, the Warring States Period … some history and civilizations had been accompanied by war.
Not far away, Jiang Xinyue was also cultivating. Her cultivation aura was much stronger. Above her head, nine vortexes appeared. Each vortex was a few acres large and flew into the sky.
Then, each vortex emitted a powerful suction force, continuously absorbing spirit energy from the second dimension above her head. This spirit energy gathered into spirit liquid, pouring down like a faucet. When it fell into her nine great holy embryos, it was compressed and then combined with her flesh and blood to produce the biological energy of her life.
If this continued, the sacred fetuses would become stronger and stronger.
Especially Jiang Xinyue's nine Holy Fetuses. Every one of them was different. Some looked like kings, some looked like goddesses, some looked like fairies, and some looked like saints … Every one of them was much more powerful than the ordinary Holy Fetuses.
Usually, only S-grade martial arts on Earth could condense sacred fetuses.
If it was an S-grade martial art, the power would be average. If it was an SS-grade martial art, the power of the condensed sacred fetuses would be huge. However, it was very difficult to cultivate SS-grade martial arts to condense sacred fetuses. The success rate was also greatly reduced.
The greater the risk, the greater the reward.
Logically speaking, Jiang Xinyue's Supreme Scripture of Longevity should be an SSSSS grade martial art. It was 5 S grades, or even higher. Of course, it was the same for Jiang Li.
Of course, the strength of these two people surpassed ordinary people.
"I'm absorbing Spiritual Qi all the time, while you're doing nothing. Sooner or later, I'll crush you. You're in big trouble now. Do you feel like the Sword of Damocles is hanging over your head?" Jiang Xinyue sneered as she practiced, putting pressure on Jiang Li.
"I can't be bothered with you." Jiang Li rolled his eyes, turned around, and started to sleep. His mind was constantly communicating with the will of the heavens, trying to fathom the growth of all living things, the exchange of energy, the rotation of the sun and moon, the changes in the universe … He was cultivating the Great Emperor Heavenly Seal.
The Nine Seals of the Great Emperor, Water, Fire, Wind, Thunder, Heaven, Earth, and Man. Each seal was extremely difficult, but he had already learned seven of them. Only the Heaven and Dream seals were left. He had to break through this bottleneck. If he didn't, no matter how much energy was injected, or even if heaven's will descended, he wouldn't be able to cultivate a Saint Embryo.
In his dream, he seemed to feel flowers falling from the sky. Heaven's will turned into flowers, descending one by one.
"The world is impermanent, just like the Void Flower."
Jiang Xinyue felt an unusual fluctuation. She closed her eyes and used her mind's eye to look. Indeed, she saw invisible flowers falling from the sky. They landed on Jiang Li's body and seeped into his skin.
"He's actually so compatible with heaven's will. He's like the Son of Heaven. "
Wu wu wu …
At this moment, killing intent surged. Wild wolves howled, and a pack of wolves appeared in the distance. They were like tens of thousands of horses galloping. These were the ferocious wolves of the grassland.
Some were black, some were silver, and some were gold. Their heads were the size of calves, and some were even like real water buffaloes. Their roars were terrifying.
Originally, it was impossible for these tens of thousands of wolves to exist on Earth because there wasn't enough food for them to eat. However, the ecosystem of the cultivation world was different from that of Earth.
On the grassland, there was even a type of "meat fungus". It was as tall as a person and was blood red in color. It was actually made of the same material as flesh. When the wolves ate it, it was like eating delicious meat.
If the biologists on Earth were to study the ecosystem of the cultivation world, their brains would probably explode.
This pack of wolves was extremely ferocious. They hunted on the grassland like a tidal wave. At the same time, they searched for the "meat fungus". Countless rabbits, rats, foxes, snakes, and all sorts of strange animals fled.
The pack of wolves rushed to the two of them like a whirlwind.
Jiang Li suddenly stood up, and with a jolt of his spirit, a huge vortex appeared behind him. Indistinctly, a ghostly wail could be heard from the depths of the void. Hundreds and thousands of wolves suddenly fell to the ground. In Jiang Xinyue's "Mind's Eye", shadows flew out from the bodies of the wolves. They were all absorbed by Jiang Li. They were dissipating souls.
"This technique is really mysterious when it comes to absorbing souls. However, these wolves are very mysterious. It seems like they were raised by someone." Jiang Xinyue flew up and arrived in front of a tall golden wolf that had died. With a palm strike, the golden wolf was instantly torn into pieces, and a thumb-sized white baby appeared in its body.
This meat pearl was white and had a fragrant smell. It was still squirming, and seemed to be an embryo or something like a ginseng fruit.
"Not good, these wolves were raised by someone. When they go out to hunt, they condense the essence of flesh and blood in their bodies. When they return, they feed them back." Jiang Xinyue's expression changed.
"What?" Jiang Li had a grave look on his face too. Driving wild beasts to hunt everywhere, where their flesh and blood would be condensed into essences of flesh and blood in their bodies, then the bio-energy would be returned to the mountain and spat out. This was an extremely profound ability in the beast-driving art.
Jiang Li knew this very well.
This was because the Insect Empress had done this too. They created plenty of biochemical beasts and sent them out to hunt to eat all the animals' flesh and blood. Afterward, the biochemical beasts' bodies would be condensed into bio-energy, which would be fed back to the mother nest when they returned, allowing the nest to grow.
Since the hungry wolves had actually condensed babies with bio-energy inside their bodies, it was evident that each of them had been condensed through a secret technique, and there were runes in their flesh and blood.
There were endless runes in the cultivation world. For example, the technology on Earth was a method to manipulate energy, which could change an animal's life and genes.
"Let's go. Given that he can control so many wolves, he's definitely not an ordinary person. I'm afraid that he's more powerful than the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One. The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One only drives wild beasts, whereas this person mutated them and gained the Insects' skills."
Jiang Li dissected a wolf's carcass and dug out a white, thumb-sized baby. He grabbed it slightly, and it turned into a stream of white bio-energy that entered his body. Sure enough, it was a potent bio-energy without any impurities, and it was more mysterious than the Fruit of Life's bio-energy.
He knew that it was called a "Vitality Fruit" in the cultivation world.
Many influential sects would use this method, and some evil sects would also use it. By driving wild beasts to attack human empires and devour humans, the Vitality Fruit that was refined would become more powerful.
"You seem to be very familiar with the cultivation world." The more Jiang Xinyue followed Jiang Li, the more surprised she was. He was so familiar with the cultivation world that he was like a native. "You're not Jiang Li? The real Jiang Li is already dead. Are you the soul of a master from the cultivation world that possessed Jiang Li? I've checked your history. You were penniless 3 years ago, then you suddenly exploded. I thought you obtained some treasure, but it looks like you've been possessed. Your flesh and blood are Jiang Li's, but your soul isn't. Who exactly are you? "
"You have a rich imagination." Jiang Li did not know to cry or to laugh. "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, so it's better if you leave quickly."
At the spur of the moment, a mental fluctuation swept across the grassland like a gust of wind.
The pack of wolves immediately lay dormant and surrounded Jiang Li and Jiang Xinyue in a circle. Jiang Li's body trembled, and the emperor embryo inside him shrank again until it was almost an insignificant dot. His aura decreased rapidly, and at last, he was only left with 5% of his life force.
This was the Great Emperor Seal's mystery.
Merging one's aura with Heaven and Earth, becoming one with the universe, and being perfectly hidden was another mystery of the emperor embryo.
"An expert in the Meditative Realm."
Even Jiang Xinyue could not resist this mighty mental power. She saw a figure appear in front of her. It was a young man wearing blue clothes and a golden crown on his head. His hands were pure white, and there was a ring on his left hand. He looked like a young prince of the imperial court, not an expert in the Meditative Realm.
This young man glanced at Jiang Li and Jiang Xinyue, and finally locked his gaze on Jiang Xinyue. He seemed to have discovered the aura of many holy embryos wriggling in her body, and his expression instantly turned serious. "I'm the vice sect leader of the Dream Sect, Meng Xingchen. Who are you? Why did you kill the wolves that I raised? The wolves that my Dream Sect raised are only to look for blood and flesh on the grassland. They don't eat humans. My Dream Sect is not an evil sect, but a famous righteous one. "
"Meng Xingchen." When Jiang Li heard this name, he suddenly thought of a person — Meng Xingyun. Their names were very similar. He carefully analyzed their auras, and realized that even their auras were similar. He had suspected that Meng Xingyun was someone from the Cultivation World, and now he was right.
It was very likely that Meng Xingyun was from the Dream Sect.
What a coincidence.
He and Jiang Xinyue were entangled in the Cultivation World, and they actually met someone from the Dream Sect. What a coincidence. Could it be that the heavens were guiding them?
"I didn't mean it." Jiang Xinyue also said carefully, "I saw that these wolves were ferocious, so I killed so many of them. How about this, I'm willing to compensate you?"
Originally, these wolves were killed by Jiang Li, but Jiang Li had hidden his strength. It seemed like even this young man, Meng Xingchen, did not see through it. Therefore, she could only take the responsibility to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"There's no need for compensation. Since it was an unintentional mistake, I won't hold it against you." Meng Xingchen seemed to be very magnanimous. He waved his hand and asked, "Miss, what's your name? I can see that your cultivation is extraordinary, and your cultivation technique is unfathomable. I wonder which big sect you came from. "
"I came from a hidden sect. Because of the invasion of the Outer World, the heavens were mobilized, so I came out to slay the demons." Jiang Xinyue's words seemed to reveal her secret, but it also seemed like she did not say anything.
