Zheng Jinlong's matter was settled, and the School of Blue Jade's side was also settled. Without any worries for now, Miao Yi could finally focus his energy on cultivation.
But before that, he still had one more thing to do. He had just taken over East Arrival Cave and had to reorganize it, so he didn't have the time. Now that he had the time, he prepared to try getting the Hell Mantis eggs that he and Lao Bai had gotten in the Boundless Secular World.
On a certain day when the sky was just beginning to brighten, Miao Yi instructed Qian'Er and Xue'Er to stand guard outside and not let anyone in to disturb him. Then, he hid in the silent quarters alone to make preparations. He had no choice, because Lao Bai had said that this secret art was not to be divulged to outsiders!
As soon as he took out the large piece of insect egg, the temperature in the room seemed to drop a little. Holding the insect egg in his hand was like holding an ice cube.
Miao Yi clicked his tongue, "It really is a freak!"
He carefully peeled the insect eggs from the mucous membrane. A hundred black insect eggs the size of quail eggs were placed on a jade plate.
He then took out a small knife and held the blade in his left palm. His right hand grabbed the knife hilt and pulled. His left palm was instantly drenched in blood.
His bloodied palm quickly flipped over the insect eggs and caressed them. Lao Bai had instructed him to cover every insect egg with his own blood. He had to use his own blood to wrap around the insect eggs and not leave any empty space. He used his blood essence to separate the Yin and Yang for the insect eggs. At the same time, he wanted the insect eggs in the ghost fetus to be able to sense his aura from the very beginning.
After spending some effort, he turned every insect egg into a dark red color. After carefully confirming that there were no mistakes, he loosened the binding bun and forced himself to pull out the hair from his head.
This was also the secret art that Lao Bai had instructed him. The hair had to be intact and not broken. He said that since he was going to incubate the dark eggs, then his fate must not be broken.
He pulled out over a hundred strands of hair. After carefully sifting through them, there were a dozen strands of hair without roots that were useless. He repeatedly pulled them out from his head a few times before he managed to gather a hundred strands of hair with roots intact.
He stained the roots of the hundred strands of hair in his left palm with fresh blood, and held the ends of the hundred strands of hair in his palm.
As soon as he invoked the art, the hundred strands of hair immediately split apart like ox hair needles, like a hedgehog.
The hand holding the hundred strands of hair hovered above the jade plate. It cast a spell and aimed at each insect egg in the jade plate, then directly plunged it down.
The surface of the insect egg wasn't hard, but it was exceptionally tough and smooth. After some effort, the hundred bloody hair roots finally pierced through the surface of the insect egg and stabbed into the insect egg.
In Lao Bai's words, this method was known as pulling the Yin and Yang Realms together.
Yin was the dark egg, and Yang was Miao Yi. Miao Yi's hair was the thread of fate that linked the two of them. This way, the hatched Hell Mantis would have a connection with his mind, and accept his control.
And the reason why Miao Yi had pulled out his hair and mutilated himself to bleed was because he was looking forward to one day being able to control a terrifying creature like the Hell Mantis.
Although he didn't know how powerful the Hell Mantis was, even after becoming a cultivator, he could feel that he didn't have the slightest ability to fight back against the Hell Mantis.
Almost at the same instant the hundred strands of hair pierced into the dark egg, the hundred strands of hair quickly transmitted a bone-piercing chill. It wasn't a pure chill, but a feeling that seemed to instantly create an illusion. It was as if he was instantly placed in the netherworld, a feeling that made even his soul tremble.
This kind of strange feeling caused Miao Yi to instantly fall into a trance state. Gradually, his soul seemed to be floating around in the never-ending netherworld, drifting about!
If it was any other person, this kind of situation would mean that their soul was in a trance, and it would be a big problem.
Fortunately, the Fiery Star Technique he cultivated played a huge role in this crucial moment. Once the art source that he had painstakingly cultivated within his body was eroded by the cold Yin energy, it immediately began to circulate on its own. A wave of warmth quickly spread throughout his entire body, instantly sweeping the cold Yin energy out of his body with lightning speed. It was intolerable and extremely tyrannical.
Miao Yi trembled violently, quickly waking up from his dazed state. He immediately discovered that the surface of the hundred strands of hair was actually covered in a layer of frost.
"Oh my, these dark eggs are really strange, they can actually make me lose control of my mind!" Miao Yi clicked his tongue in surprise.
Now he was more and more looking forward to what it would be like when it hatched.
Calming his mind, he carefully recalled the heart cultivation method that Lao Bai had taught him. His five fingers grabbed onto the hundred strands of hair, and he began to silently channel his transcendence energy along the hundred strands of hair into the hundred dark eggs, using the secret arts within.
Not even an hour later, Miao Yi opened his eyes and retracted his transcendence energy. The hand that was grabbing onto the hundred strands of hair loosened as well.
Under his cultivation method, the hundred strands of hair that had already melted from the frost, were once again enveloped in frost from the roots.
He didn't know if doing this would be of any use, but in any case, he did as Lao Bai said.
With a flip of his palm, he summoned the Glorious Star immortal herb from the storage ring. Pursing his lips, he blew out a small wisp of nebula from the immortal herb onto the open wound on his left palm. The bloody wound immediately healed at a visible speed.
After recovering to its original state, Miao Yi looked at the immortal herb in his hand and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. His luck was really good. At that time, the Hell Mantis actually had a Glorious Star immortal herb hanging off its body from the Boundless Secular World. If it wasn't for this immortal herb, wanting to hatch the dark eggs would have been a little troublesome.
There was no other reason, because according to the secret arts taught by Lao Bai, the dark eggs had to be covered with their own fresh blood every day for eighty-one days. During these eighty-one days, not a single day could be missed, or else all of their previous efforts would be wasted.
In other words, he had to bleed eighty-one times, and continuously cut himself eighty-one times a day. If it wasn't for his good luck in obtaining this immortal herb, not to mention mortals, even cultivators wouldn't feel good having their blood cut every day!
Miao Yi washed off the bloodstains on his hands in the flowing hot spring pool, then turned around and carried the jade tray out of the silent quarters.
Qian'Er and Xue'Er, who were guarding outside, were a little curious when they saw the item in his hands. What was this black and red thing with white hairs growing on the tray?
No matter what it was, Xue'Er took the initiative to help Miao Yi carry it.
Perhaps it was because Miao Yi was used to ordering them around, so he handed it over to her. Just as he was about to say a few words, he noticed that Xue'Er's complexion had instantly turned deathly pale. She was trembling as she held the jade tray, and the jade tray involuntarily slipped from her hands.
Fortunately, Miao Yi's reaction was quick. With one hand, he caught the jade tray, and with the other, he grabbed onto Xue'Er's arm that was swaying unsteadily.
He also realized that he had been careless. The item in the jade tray had an extremely heavy Yin aura, and even he had almost fallen victim to it. A normal person wouldn't be able to withstand it at all.
However, the cultivation method he cultivated was extremely effective in resisting Yin aura. He quickly invoked his arts and channeled it into Xue'Er's body, instantly sweeping away the Yin aura that had invaded her body.
