Based on her calculations, it wouldn't be long before the imperial guards found the sealed grounds.
With danger looming over them, how could she not be anxious when her son was there? She had been making frequent visits recently to persuade Grandmaster Qi Jie to leave and give up on guarding Nan Bo's divine soul. However, she couldn't persuade him. Grandmaster Qi Jie refused to leave. He was worried that without anyone to keep him in check, Nan Bo would start slaughtering the living again. He had personally witnessed the dire situation in the valley all those years ago. He couldn't let something like that happen again. He would save as many lives as he could.
However, Grandmaster Qi Jie wasn't as stubborn as a dead man. He appreciated Yu Luocha's good intentions, so he asked her to take his son and the blood demon away. He wanted to stay behind and guard the valley alone.
Yu Luocha wanted to do that. She couldn't possibly allow her son to take such a risk. However, she had her own concerns when it came down to it. That was Ba Jie's master, and also someone Miao Yi respected. She herself respected Grandmaster Qi Jie as well. If she were to abandon Grandmaster Qi Jie for the sake of her son and something happened to him, she wouldn't be able to answer to Ba Jie and Miao Yi.
In her fury, she even considered taking Grandmaster Qi Jie away. However, in the end, she didn't dare to do something so rude to him. After all, she had lived a ridiculous life. Now that she had met someone she truly respected, she was willing to treat him with sincerity and respect. She made several trips to no avail.
Ba Jie wasn't the type to handle serious matters, and this wasn't something she could make the decision on her own. In the end, Yu Luocha decided to discuss the matter with Miao Yi. Ba Jie was Miao Yi's younger brother, so she could be considered his sister-in-law. An elder brother was like a father to her. After thinking about it, Miao Yi was the most suitable person to make the decision. She could only let Miao Yi deal with this problem himself. If worse came to worst, she would have to take her son away first...
On the Ancient Ice Plains, a chilling wind blew. A valley was filled with dense spiritual energy, and the wind couldn't disperse it.
Within the ice cave in the valley, the spiritual energy was so dense that it felt like it was about to rain. It was impossible to see what was happening inside.
As the spiritual energy in the valley gradually dissipated, the appearance of the ice cave gradually came into view. The spiritual energy in the ice cave gradually disappeared as well, revealing Miao Yi's appearance as he sat cross-legged on the profound ice couch. Between his brows was a transcendence seal in the shape of a golden flame.
The colorful lotus pattern from before had already melted and transformed into a flame pattern at will. At this stage, outsiders would not be able to determine his specific cultivation level from his Dharma Idol. Only he himself would know.
His current cultivation had already reached Lotus Transformation Ninth Grade. In just over thirty thousand years of cultivation, his cultivation progress was terrifying, breaking through more than a dozen levels in a row.
What was equally terrifying was the number of Orbs of Will he consumed every day. If he were to convert them into Basic Immortal Pills, he would need to consume ten million pills every day. In other words, he would need to consume more than three billion Basic Immortal Pills every year. Such a huge consumption of cultivation was not something an ordinary person could support. Therefore, most cultivators in the world could not reach such a realm in their lifetime.
Fortunately, the Fiery Star Technique's miraculous effect of utilizing Orbs of Will allowed him to save a lot of resources.
Even so, with his current progress, it would still take him more than thirty thousand years to break through from Lotus Transformation Ninth Grade to the Vision Divinity Realm. However, this was not a problem for Miao Yi. In the past tens of thousands of years of cultivation in the Primordial Era, the Eternal Heaven Valley and the Ancient Ice Plains had provided him with an inexhaustible supply of pure Yang and Yin fire elements. He did not have to worry about running out of fire elements like he did in other places. His cultivation progress had been increasing by leaps and bounds.
He had thoroughly experienced the wonders of the Fiery Star Technique during his closed-door cultivation this time. If he continued to cultivate in the Primordial Era, he could guarantee that he would not need more than thirty thousand years to break through to the Vision Divinity Realm. Perhaps a few thousand years would be enough.
He originally wanted to break through to the Vision Divinity Realm in one go, but in the end, it was inevitable that he would occasionally be disturbed. He could not ignore Yu Luocha's message. He knew that Yu Luocha had her pride and would not easily look for him if there was nothing important.
After stopping his cultivation and taking out the Starbell to make contact, Miao Yi's expression gradually turned solemn as he pondered.
He had long known that Demon Monk Nan Bo's sealed grounds could be a problem. Even though he was not lucky enough to pass through, it was inevitable that he would still have to come.
He could understand Grandmaster Qi Jie's stubbornness. He also wanted Yu Luocha to capture Grandmaster Qi Jie and be done with it.
However, no matter how he thought about it, he did not want to be rude to Grandmaster Qi Jie. He truly respected this old monk. A monk without selfish motives, a monk who sacrificed himself for others, a monk who had no enemies, a monk who never owed anyone anything but others owed him. A person like this was rarely seen in this world, and no one could afford to neglect him.
What's more, he was Ba Jie's master. He kept telling Ba Jie to respect his master, so it would be inconvenient for him to set a bad example. He still had to observe the necessary etiquette. Thus, he decided to personally make a trip. If it really did not work, then it would not be too late to resort to peaceful means before resorting to force.
Once he made up his mind, the golden flames between Miao Yi's brows dimmed. He exited the ice cavern and released a Hell Mantis from the valley. Riding it, he flew towards the phoenix nest. After leaving this place, it was inevitable for him to bid farewell to his master.
Inside the Ice Palace, the host and guest exchanged some pleasantries. Miao Yi was about to leave when he suddenly remembered that the two in front of him had fought with Demon Monk Nan Bo before. He pondered for a moment, then took the initiative to reveal the reason for his departure. "I won't hide it from you two. My departure this time has something to do with Demon Monk Nan Bo."
"..." The Phoenix sisters were shocked. Even the usually cold and expressionless Phoenix was shocked.
When she regained her senses, Phoenix asked anxiously, "Has Demon Monk Nan Bo returned?"
Miao Yi shook his head. "Some things are not to be underestimated. I didn't say it earlier because I had some reservations. Actually, I already knew where Demon Monk Nan Bo's divine soul was sealed. I have people standing guard there all this time to prevent Demon Monk Nan Bo's divine soul from escaping."
The Phoenix sisters looked at each other. Phoenix asked again, "If that's the case, could it be that the people guarding the divine soul made a mistake?"
Miao Yi replied, "No, it's just that the Celestial Court is about to find the sealed land. I'm afraid I have no choice but to withdraw my people. Both of you have fought with him before, so you know more or less what he's capable of. That's why I would like to ask the both of you if there is any way to completely destroy Demon Monk Nan Bo's divine soul? "
This was the reason why he took the initiative to reveal the truth. Perhaps everything would be fine if Yu Luocha took her son away. Demon Monk Nan Bo didn't know Yu Luocha's name, but he knew Miao Yi's name. Once the people from the Celestial Court found him, and Demon Monk Nan Bo revealed the truth to the Celestial Court, Miao Yi was afraid he would be in trouble.
What's more, Demon Monk Nan Bo's divine soul was also a scourge. If he had the chance, he might as well get rid of it in one fell swoop to avoid future troubles. That was why he asked the both of them.
However, Phoenix said in surprise, "Now that you mention it, I find it strange. Demon Monk Nan Bo is a heaven-defying genius. He is a monstrous genius that has never been seen before in the cultivation realm. In his entire life, he has created his own miraculous arts, and is invincible under the heavens. In terms of combat strength, even if you surpass your Grand Master, you still wouldn't be a match for him. But in terms of destroying his divine soul, the Fiery Star Technique that your lineage cultivates should be the nemesis of divine souls. The Fiery Star Technique incinerates Yin and Yang, so it should be able to easily turn his divine soul into ashes, causing him to be unable to reincarnate for eternity. But why have you suppressed him for so many years and not done anything to his divine soul? Instead, you came to ask us?"
"..." Miao Yi was speechless as he looked at the two of them. He was rather speechless. After all this time, the Fiery Star Technique that he cultivated was the nemesis of divine souls. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, "No one has ever mentioned this before, so I really don't know. The troublesome thing is, Demon Monk Nan Bo's divine soul was originally trapped by his six disciples using a grand array. It's difficult for outsiders to enter. Even if I want to destroy him, I would have to break the array first. But once the array is broken, without the restraints of the grand array, that demon monk's Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant is truly powerful. I'm worried that no one will be able to restrain him. "
"Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant?" The usually serious Phoenix suddenly cried out. Her eyes widened as she asked, "He doesn't have a physical body, so he should have lost his transcendence energy. How can he still use the Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant?"
Miao Yi nodded and said, "There's no mistake. I can confirm this. I was almost controlled by him. Even a Prominent Divine Realm expert couldn't avoid it. This demon monk is truly terrifying." The Prominent Divine Realm expert he was referring to was naturally Yu Luocha.
The Phoenix Sisters felt the hairs on their backs stand up and their scalps tingle. Their faces were filled with terror.
Phoenix said solemnly, "Once this demon monk escapes, it will be a calamity for the world!"
Phoenix shook her head in disbelief. "He can still use the Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant without transcendence energy. How is that possible?"
Miao Yi was agitated by her words. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. He recalled how Ba Jie could use the Buddhist arts to control the blooming and wilting of flowers without transcendence energy. He couldn't help but say, "I didn't think it was possible either. But I saw it with my own eyes. It proves that he does have such a divine ability. This demon monk has a deep understanding of the Six Paths. He's proficient in the arts of Demons, Demons, Humans, Ghosts, Buddhists, and Daoists. He's even able to control reincarnation. I suspect that he's not using transcendence energy, but the Buddhist arts to control it. "
The two sisters fell silent, seemingly pondering the possibility of Miao Yi's words. Phoenix suddenly exclaimed, "That can't be right. The Fiery Star Technique you cultivate should be able to protect your body from the demonic sound's interference. How did you get controlled by the Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant?"
Miao Yi was taken aback once more. That seemed to be the case. He had once used the Fiery Star Technique to defend himself against the Heaven Sound Beast's sound wave attack. Last time, it seemed like he didn't have the time to defend himself, which was why he fell for the Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant. He smiled bitterly. "I was caught off guard."
The two sisters exchanged glances. They realized that Miao Yi seemed to know very little about the cultivation art he was cultivating. They were a little confused.
Phoenix explained, "Everything in this world bears Yin and embraces Yang. However, the Fiery Star Technique is able to control both Yin and Yang. It is an extraordinary art, so you must not underestimate the cultivation art you're cultivating. The Fiery Star Technique's ability to defend against the Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant isn't as simple as isolating the sound wave attack. It's isolating both Yin and Yang. Logically speaking, even if you didn't defend yourself, the Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant wouldn't have been able to control you. Yin and Yang reinforce each other. Once there's an imbalance between Yin and Yang, the Fiery Star Technique should have automatically triggered the Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant. Those who cultivate the Fiery Star Technique are immune to all evil and poisons. Could it be that you haven't been under his control for long enough to trigger the Fiery Star Technique's reaction? "
"That seems to be the case." Miao Yi recalled the situation at the time, and couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. "How did the two of you deal with the Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant when you were fighting him?"
Phoenix said, "The Life Seeking Sanskrit Chant isn't as scary as you think it is. Naturally, I won't be affected if I cut off my sense of hearing. I'm just afraid of being bewitched when I don't know what's going on."
So that's how it is. Miao Yi nodded slightly. If that's the case, then he was more confident that he could destroy the demonic monk Nan Bo's divine soul.
