The demonic psyche was the resource for practising the Heavenly Tome of Freedom.
Coincidentally, Li Qingshan's demonic psyche was much heavier than regular people's. This was originally a major side effect of practising the Nine Transformations of the Demonic and Divine. In the very beginning, he had to constantly suppress it with the spirit turtle, or he would lose control.
As his cultivation increased and his miniature world took shape, he no longer had to care about the balance of the demonic and divine. However, the demonic psyche still existed, and it was far more intense than ever before. Right now, the Nine Transformations of the Demonic and Divine did not allow him to make any breakthroughs, so he began practising the Heavenly Tome of Freedom first.
Even if the Spirit Sovereign of Sea Guihai really was screwing him over, since he had come this far, all he could do was tread forward despite knowing that there was a tiger in the mountain.
He sat down with his legs crossed and observed his body. In a chaotic world, the yin demon also sat down with his legs crossed. His posture was exactly the same as his, without any difference at all. However, his face was blurry, hazy like it was shrouded in a thin layer of mist.
With a thought, killing intent rose up in Li Qingshan's heart.
A gust of wind blew away the mist, revealing a furious face that was as vicious as a tiger's. His eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and his fangs protruded. He surged with murderousness as if he wanted to eat someone.
With another thought, he became solemn and unyielding. The yin demon's expression changed as well. He pursed his lips firmly, becoming rude and stubborn.
He suddenly smiled. The yin demon began to scratch his ears and cheeks, looking around. He was irritable and uneasy, like a monkey trapped in a cage that wanted to break out and be free.
As he practised the Heavenly Tome of Freedom, he allowed the demonic psyche to run amok in his heart. The yin demon's face seemed to change. It was sometimes greedy and lustful, sometimes bloodthirsty and murderous, sometimes fearful, furious, resentful …
The yin demon gradually became more and more condensed, absorbing the power of the chaotic world sliver by sliver.
Suddenly, he seemed to break through a certain critical point. The yin demon began to swell rapidly. His body twisted, growing ox horns, tiger claws, and ape arms. He seemed human, yet not human, like a daemon, yet not daemon. He seemed more like a demonfolk's "demonification".
Roar! The yin demon roared at the sky hysterically, shaking up the entire chaotic world. It shook up the entire chaotic world as if it wanted to overthrow Li Qingshan, the supreme ruler who stood high above.
Li Qingshan quickly stopped circulating the Unfettered Heavenly Tome. However, the Yin Demon continued to expand uncontrollably, even circulating the Unfettered Sutra on its own. Even the three Devil Transformations showed signs of losing control.
It was as if he had returned to the situation when he was going through the tribulation. His entire body was numb and stiff. Li Qingshan's mouth twitched. "This time, it's too big!"
Cultivating the Unfettered Heavenly Tome was easy for him, but the price he had to pay for it was extremely dangerous. If he wasn't careful, he would go berserk. Nothing was more terrifying than this for cultivators. Only he dared to play like this, and those who played with fire would definitely die.
"Spirit Turtle Suppresses the Seas!"
The image of the Spirit Turtle appeared. Its body shone with a clear light as it fiercely suppressed the Yin Demons.
Boom! Even the yin demon could not withstand the spirit turtle's suppression. Like a ball of plasticine, it twisted and crumpled into a pile.
Li Qingshan was still worried, so he used the phoenix's Scripture of Nirvāṇa again. With the cry of a phoenix in his sea of consciousness, the phoenix flew over and stood on the spirit turtle's back.
"Small fry. Do you think I can't suppress you? "
Just as Li Qingshan was feeling smug, he suddenly noticed that the Yin Demons were slowly seeping into the spirit turtle. The clear light gradually faded.
The chaotic world would expand and collapse at times, becoming really unstable. Once this power lost control, it would destroy him from the inside out. He wouldn't even be able to undergo rebirth.
"Err …"
If inner demons were so easy to deal with and cultivation deviation could be suppressed so easily, then most cultivators wouldn't view him as the top enemy.
All the demonic thoughts came from his heart. This wasn't an invasion from the outside, but an internal conflict in the imperial court. Even the imperial guards couldn't be relied on. They might even turn against him. Thoughts were something that couldn't be suppressed.
Li Qingshan had no choice but to pay attention to it. However, he didn't panic at all. He had seen all kinds of dangerous and urgent situations before. The more dangerous the situation, the more battle intent he could unleash. There were also many sparks of inspiration.
"Going head-on doesn't seem to work, so let's try this!"
Li Qingshan sucked in a deep breath. The wind whistled past the mountain, and the golden leaves on the tree rustled. His face became calm and peaceful. In the chaotic world, a qilin slowly walked out of the chaos.
By now, the Yin Demons had already devoured the spirit turtle. Even the Spirit Turtle's Method of Sea Suppression was useless, yet he used the weak Qilin's Scroll of Longevity.
He chanted, "Qilin's divine ability, Endless Growth."
However, there were no shocking changes. There were no beautiful lights or shocking sounds. There was only the rustling of the wind. A golden leaf fell, circling around him before drifting away. Soon after, another leaf fell.
Ruan Yaozhu was currently paying attention to him. She became nervous when his breathing became chaotic, as if he was suffering from cultivation deviation.
"What's going on? Even in autumn and winter, the Golden Leaf Bodhi Tree rarely shed leaves!"
The grass around Li Qingshan was originally green, but it rapidly withered now. In the blink of an eye, the withered yellow spread across the entire mountain, as if autumn had arrived.
Rustle. Countless golden leaves were blown away by the wind. They were like golden butterflies flying freely in the sunlight.
The nine-colored deer cried out, "Hey, blockhead, he's using some evil technique to absorb the vitality of the surrounding plants. Stop him!"
The withered yellow had already spread down the mountain, towards the precious spiritual plants and flowers.
Ruan Yaozhu did not move. "Let's talk about it later!"
The nine-colored deer looked at her in disbelief. Every single flower and grass in the Hundred Herb Garden was her precious treasure. Not only was it for the bookmarks and contribution points from the Myriad Phenomenon Sect, but it was also for her blood, sweat, and tears. Even if it was to provide spiritual plants to the Myriad Phenomenon Sect, she would not uproot them unless she had no other choice. How could he just watch as a bastard destroyed these treasures for his own selfishness?
Seeing the withered yellow spread and the spiritual plants begin to wither, she could not hold it in anymore. "If you don't care, I'll care!"
"Don't go!" Ruan Yaozhu ordered.
"That damned bastard, what kind of medicine did he feed you!?"
Ruan Yaozhu said helplessly, "What are you thinking about? He might have entered a state of Qi Deviation and is at a critical juncture. He had no choice but to do this. I will make him compensate for the losses." Ruan Yaozhu thought to herself, Do I need to lend him a helping hand?
The nine-colored deer was shocked. "Cultivation deviation! Quickly move him out of the Hundred Herb Garden. "If he self-detonated, who knew how many spiritual plants would be destroyed.
Ruan Yaozhu shook her head firmly. "He will be fine." He even survived that critical moment.
It was also Li Qingshan's first time using this technique. Could it be that the first technique of the Qilin Transformation was an evil technique that could devour life?
No, of course not.
He reached out to grab a leaf and let out a breath.
