Chapter 373 Xiao Luo's Promotion
Chapter 365: Xiao Luo's Promotion

After thousands of years of evolution and development, the [Fantasy World] has long become a huge blessed land spanning multiple realms, gathering numerous [Temple Systems], and covering hundreds of millions of people.

In this vast blessed land, various methods of cultivation, rare treasures, and wealth opportunities emerge in an endless stream, attracting countless practitioners to come and seek opportunities and pursue the great way of cultivation.

For so many cultivators, if they want to withstand the tempering of this [Karma Fire] and share the pressure with Han Yue, they must at least achieve the third level of cultivation.

And how many cultivators above the third level are there in the [Fantasy World]?
Only Han Yue, the master of the [Fantasy World], can possess this kind of confidential information.

Every cultivator needs to obtain a second-level or higher [Fantasy Ring] and practice a [Fantasy God] magical power before they can join the [Fantasy World].

During this process, everyone's information will be clearly recorded by the data system behind the [Fantasy World].

This huge amount of data contains the spiritual fluctuations and practice details of hundreds of millions of cultivators.

No matter from which angle, it is an extremely valuable treasure for practicing the innate [Yuan Ling] way.

However, Han Yue’s practice time was not long enough, and he did not have enough time to explore ways to utilize this data.

However, he could still easily grasp the most basic data of the cultivators in the [Fantasy World].

According to the latest data, in the entire [Fantasy World], the number of members who have truly embarked on the practice of cultivation is as high as 176.5 million.

Among them, there are only more than 50 million human cultivators, and almost all of these cultivators come from the [Yuxiao Realm].

Overall, the demon cultivators have the largest population. In the [Yuxiao Realm] alone, there are nearly 50 million demons in the sea and outer realms!

And since [Wubing] went to the [Demon God Palace], sixty to seventy percent of the major demon tribes that were practicing in [Demon God Mountain] were transformed by it into the [Fantasy World].

And this part of the population has a number of over 40 million.

If we look at the number of people, the demon clan is the largest clan in the [Fantasy World], accounting for more than half of the total population.

Among the remaining people, there are the 30 million void snake demons that Qing Qiu brought in after he went to the Dream-Eating Snake Cave, as well as other scattered realms.

In the [Metaverse] that Han Yue created herself, there are only a few hundred thousand cultivators, which is almost the weakest force in this [Fantasy World].

Among the more than 170 million cultivators, only less than 30%, or more than 54 million, have cultivation levels above the second level.

Among these more than 54 million, the proportion of third-level cultivators is even lower, only one in fifty.

All in all, there are only 1.08 million third-level cultivators in the entire [Fantasy World].

This is because in the [Dream-Eating Snake Cave] and the [Demon God Palace], there are many demon races with precious innate bloodlines. They are born with a cultivation level of the second level or above, and as long as they reach adulthood, they have a cultivation level of the third or even fourth level, which brings the overall ratio up and makes the number look better.

If we only count the human cultivators in the [Yuxiao Realm], the proportion of the third level would be much lower!

Among the human cultivators in the entire [Fantasy World], only 0.2% can eventually reach the third level.

Among the 1.08 million third-level cultivators, there are only a little over 100,000 humans, which is completely incomparable with other races.

And this is exactly what makes human monks so special.

The weak body and inferior bloodline made it very difficult for the human race to practice in the early stages. Before the third stage, the elimination rate of human cultivators was extremely high.

But once they have passed the first few levels and reached the third level of cultivation, human cultivators have gathered all the magical powers and treasures and truly stood at the pinnacle of cultivation.

Whether it is personal strength or the probability of achieving enlightenment through continued practice, they will be far ahead of other races.

Compared with other races, the cultivation path of the human race can be described as a journey of counterattack and turnaround with a bloody start.

However, once they have survived the most difficult early stages, the grown-up human cultivators will be able to support a huge force that is no less powerful than that of other races with their smaller population!

Among all the races in the universe, humans are recognized as a late-stage race.

Ever since Han Yue established this [Fantasy World], the human forces in the [Yuxiao World] seemed to have found their own stepping stone to heaven.

A human cultivator, no matter what his cultivation level, talent, or inheritance is.

As long as he comes to this [Fantasy World], he will definitely be able to discover the benefits of promoting his own practice in this magical virtual world.

Even the most basic function of [Fantasy World] to temper spiritual consciousness and prolong the time of comprehension and learning will be of great help to cultivators!
For a late-stage race like the human race, even a little extra progress in the early stages of practice can snowball and lead to a higher ceiling in future practice!

Therefore, human cultivators attach the highest importance to the [Fantasy World]!

They also respond most quickly to any disturbance in the [Fantasy World].

When the announcement of "Refining the God with Karma Fire" was officially released, the first group to arrive at this [Karma Fire Lotus Pond] were the large number of third-level human cultivators.

These cultivators came from various large and small sects in the Yuxiao Realm, and each of them was a genius of the human race.

With the experience of the previous "Peerless Sword" event, all human cultivators are extremely looking forward to this round of [Karma Fire] soul refining!

Every large-scale event means unprecedented opportunities and challenges, especially for human monks like them, it is an excellent opportunity to improve their cultivation and narrow the gap with other races.

Beside the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond] which is shaped like nine lotus flowers, there are shadowy figures. Some of them are wearing gorgeous Taoist robes, while others are wearing exquisite armor. They are all great monks with concentrated spirits and extraordinary aura.

Normally, these great cultivators were scattered throughout the [Yuxiao Realm], but at this moment they gathered together.

These cultivators all came from the [Yuxiao Realm], and many of them were familiar with each other.

However, at this moment, standing next to the raging [Karma Fire Lotus Pond] and feeling its terrifying power, everyone had a serious look on their faces and no one was whispering to each other!
Next to this [Karma Fire Lotus Pond], there has already been a [Spirit Refining Monument] erected by the [Empty Demon Body].

On this stone tablet is engraved the method of using [Karma Fire] to refine the soul, which was summarized by [Empty Demon Body] after his personal experience.

All the great cultivators of the human race began to study the information recorded on the [Spirit Refining Monument] as soon as possible.

But after learning, none of the monks took any action.

It’s because the information recorded on this [Spirit Refining Monument] is quite shocking!
The cultivators who can cultivate to the third level or above are undoubtedly extremely cautious and good at thinking.

All the monks were carefully observing the horrifying [Karma Fire] before them, trying to use their spiritual consciousness and magical power to spy on the power contained therein.

Everyone has his or her own opinion on how to use the [Karma Fire] to refine spiritual consciousness.

The methods recorded on the [Spirit Refining Tablet] are just a reference for all cultivators. They still need to be carefully digested and find their own methods.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened beside the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond]!

I saw a young monk with a sturdy build and a wealthy face kicking a black dog lying next to him into the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond].

This black dog is more than three feet long, fat and strong, with a shiny and smooth body.

The black dog that was kicked into the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond] let out a shrill wail, and then its body twisted in the blazing karma fire, as if it was torn apart by an invisible force, making bursts of heart-pounding explosions.

This scene stunned all the human cultivators around and they all looked at them in surprise.

Soon, the black dog was completely burned to ashes.

The burly young monk did not change his expression, but instead closed his eyes and began to sense.

In just a few flashes, the young man opened his eyes again.

He then spoke to the monks around him:
"My fellow Taoists, be well. This beast of mine has successfully brought a trace of [Karma Fire] into the present world."

"And the total amount of [Infernal Fire] is completely controllable and will never get out of control."

"The method recorded on the [Spirit Refining Tablet] is feasible. Fellow Taoists who are interested can give it a try."

After saying this, the young cultivator jumped directly into the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond].

As the [Karma Fire] burned into something hideous, his incarnation of divine consciousness was also burned out and disappeared into the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond].

The information he conveyed also caused quite a stir among the surrounding monks.

I heard a monk who knew this fierce man introduce him:

"This person is the new headmaster of the Beast Taming Sect, the Wild Dog Taoist Lin Qingye. He has just taken over the position of headmaster for less than ten years."

"He independently developed the [Huo Dou] path of the Beast Taming Sect and made great contributions. He was then able to take over the Beast Taming Sect with his third-level cultivation. I didn't expect that he would be so brave."

Someone else next to him said:

"This Wild Dog Taoist is a disciple of the previous Dragon Taming Master Luo of the Beast Taming Sect. He has close ties with the top leaders of the Illusion God Sect!"

"He did this to set an example for us, so that we can believe in the effectiveness of [Karma Fire Refining Spirit]!"

"However, since he dared to be the first to try it, I guess this activity is not risky."

Everyone was talking about it, but after someone took the lead, the entire "Karma Fire Refining God" activity was completely launched!
Gradually, more and more cultivators began to take action and jumped directly into the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond].

As more and more monks jumped in, the flames in the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond] were significantly weakened.

And move the perspective outside the [Fantasy World], and come to the mountain gate of the Beast Taming Sect in the [Yuxiao Realm].

In a huge underground cave, there lay a terrifying "disaster dog" that was a hundred feet tall and had a powerful aura.

The bloodline of this [Dog of Trouble] has already reached the peak of the third level, and it is only one step away from being promoted to a true [Dog of Trouble] monster.

This cave goes deep into the earth, almost reaching the core.

In the center of the cave, there is a huge hole in the ground, which is directly connected to the magma in the core of the earth.

Deep in the blazing core of the Earth, the magma surges like boiling blood, releasing astonishing heat and energy.

The hundred-foot-tall [Dog of Trouble] was lying quietly on the edge of the cave, with its eyes closed, as if it was having some subtle communication with the magma of the underground fire.

However, no matter how high the temperature of the magma was, it was suppressed by the gray-brown flame burning between the eyebrows of this [Dog of Disaster]!
And this flame is exactly the pure [Karma Fire] that the [Dog of Disaster] brought out from the [Fantasy World].

Just as it is written on the [Spirit Refining Monument], one transforms into the [Fantasy World], enters the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond], and is burned by the [Karma Fire]. Under the guidance of the spiritual consciousness, one can lead a trace of the [Karma Fire] into the present world.

In reality, by digesting this trace of [Karma Fire], one can truly bring into play the effect of this [Karma Fire] in refining the mind and body, and tempering magic power.

Moreover, with the barrier of the [Fantasy World], the amount of [Karma Fire] brought out can be controlled, and there is no risk at all, which can be said to be extremely appropriate!

As this [Dog of Disaster] was being refined by the [Karma Fire], a faint gray-brown light began to appear on the surface of its body. It was a sign that the [Karma Fire] was moving within its body, tempering its flesh and bones.

Every time the [Infernal Fire] circulated, it seemed to add an indescribable toughness and strength to its body. As time went on, the aura of this [Dog of Trouble] became more and more calm and pure, faintly revealing the signs of a breakthrough to a higher level.

And this [Karma Fire] was completely overdrawn and consumed during this process.

[The Trouble Dog] opened his eyes with an unsatisfied look, smacked his lips, and felt unsatisfied!
It quickly activated the [Fantasy World], concentrated its consciousness again, and transformed itself into it.

This time, it ran straight out of the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond], without stopping at the shore, and plunged right in!
It took only half an incense stick of time for it to successfully draw out a trace of [Karma Fire] and began a new round of ritual!

Considering the strength of its physical body, it can consume at least three strands of [Karma Fire] at a time.

This [Dog of Misfortune] only hopes that this "Karma Fire Refining God" activity can continue for a longer period of time so that it can absorb as much [Karma Fire] as possible to refine itself.

Beside it, Lin Qingye was a step behind it. He had just digested the first trace of his own [Karma Fire], and at the same time, his mind was complete and his body was improved!

The benefits of this [Karma Fire] to spiritual practice are also fully demonstrated!

In his mind, this round of "Refining the Soul with Karma Fire" activity is far more useful than the previous round of "Peerless Sword" activity.

This is especially true for the cultivators of their Beast Taming Sect!
For them, this [Karma Fire] can not only improve their own cultivation in all aspects, but also help their beast taming to improve as well. It can be said to be a double improvement and is extremely efficient. It is definitely not to be missed!

After experiencing it, he immediately manipulated his [Divine Ring] and sent several messages.

First, in his capacity as the Beast Tamer Sect's headmaster, he asked all of the Beast Tamer Sect's cultivators above the third level to put down everything they were doing, enter the [Fantasy World], and activate the [Karma Fire] to refine their bodies.

Then, he sent messages to all his close friends and informed them of the matter.

Afterwards, Lin Qingye walked out of his retreat place and headed deep into the Beast Taming Sect’s headquarters.

His cultivation had also reached the peak of the third level, and he was traveling at an extremely fast speed.

Soon, they arrived at the gate of a garden.

There was a plaque hanging on the gate of the garden with the words "Lion and Tiger Garden" inscribed on it. He then stepped into it.

Then, the space reversed and he entered a blessed land.

He continued to ride the light of escape westward. Under his feet, there were countless pure-blooded lion and tiger monsters living in this [Lion and Tiger Garden].

Lin Qingye had a clear goal and went straight to a pond deep in this blessed land.

He lowered his escape light and walked to the side of a young girl.

The girl was dressed in a purple fur coat, which was quite luxurious, but it was a bit heavy compared to the surrounding temperature.

The girl ignored Lin Qingye who came here, but concentrated on rubbing the fantasy ring game in her hands.

This newly launched game, “Black Myth: Sword to Slay Kunpeng”, is quite popular and has attracted the girl to become addicted to it.

Lin Qingye stepped forward and said to the girl:

"Master, a new activity has been launched in the [Fantasy World]. I have tried it myself. It is very useful for Beast Taming Sect cultivators like me!"

"Master, why don't you give it another try? Maybe there will be a new hope!"

Luo Erjia, the former headmaster of the Beast Taming Sect, rubbed the screen and said:
"Qingye, my life span is less than three years, and my Qi and blood have begun to decline. The longevity barrier has blocked me for more than seven hundred years. I have tried every method, so how can I rely on external force to break through at this last moment?"

This girl looks young, but in fact, she is a cultivator of previous generations who has lived for thousands of years, and has basically reached the lifespan limit of a third-level cultivator.

As she spoke, she sounded quite tired and lifeless.

She had naturally seen the announcement for the "Refining the God with Karma Fire" event, but she didn't even have the desire to try it.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Lin Qingye immediately entered the [Fantasy World] on the spot and ran straight to the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond].

Not long after, he drew out a trace of [Karma Fire] from the [Fantasy World].

But this time, he did not digest this trace of [Karma Fire] by himself. Instead, he flicked his finger and bounced this trace of [Karma Fire] towards Xiao Luo in front of him.

Although Xiao Luo is approaching the end of her life, her magical powers are still at their peak.

As a top-level cultivator at the third level, she immediately used her own magical power to absorb this [Karma Fire].

But then, this [Karma Fire] began to refine her soul!

As soon as the [Karma Fire] entered her body, it was as if thousands of fine needles were piercing her soul. The pain was unbearable, but it also had an inexplicable attraction that made her involuntarily want to adapt to this power.

Xiao Luo was stunned. His cultivation that had been frozen for hundreds of years actually began to loosen a little under this [Karma Fire]!
This result was beyond her expectations!

As the headmaster of the top sect in [Yuxiao Realm], the resources that Xiao Luo can mobilize are endless!
She had encountered the Buddhist "Karma Fire" before.

In fact, she had long been looking for this [Karma Fire] to refine herself.

However, the [Karma Fire] that she had experienced and the [Karma Fire] in front of her were completely different concepts!
The effect of this trace of [Karma Fire] is unimaginable!
How could she know that behind this inconspicuous [Karma Fire], the supreme [Karma Honghong Buddha] in the void was exerting his full strength!

Even a great cultivator at the fifth-rank [Pillar] level can gain huge benefits from it.

What's more, she only has the gate of immortality?

Xiao Luo's frozen bottleneck of magic power melted, and her long-dormant heart of Tao was ignited again!
Once upon a time, even Han Yue admired Xiao Luo's firm determination to pursue the Tao.

If there is even a glimmer of possibility for improvement, she will never let it go!

Xiao Luo stood up on the spot and uttered a clear shout.

Then, a huge leopard, whose eyes were pure white, jumped down from the low hill beside the pool and stood beside her.

In the pool, there was also an extremely huge red-horned python head, which stretched out and faced Xiao Luo in front of him.

Xiao Luo said to the dragon and the leopard in front of him:
"My two Taoist friends, please follow me for the last leg of my journey!"

"If I still can't break through the barrier of immortality this time, I will have to meet you two again in the next life!"

After saying that, Xiao Luo went straight into the [Fantasy World] for the first time in a long time and ran towards the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond].

The dragon and the leopard followed closely behind her, always by her side.

The two beast tamers were the happiest that their master was able to regain his strength!
Lin Qingye was quite pleased to see that his master had regained his vitality and ignited his faith in Taoism.

He then sank into the [Fantasy World] and began his own self-destructive practice!

One year later, the [Dragon Roar Bell] in the Beast Taming Sect rang thirty-six times in a row!
Congratulations to the previous headmaster Luo Erjia for breaking free from his cage and achieving immortality!
Xiao Luo used the fifth-order peak [Karma Fire] to squeeze his potential to the limit, and finally at the last moment of his life, he achieved fourth-order immortality and obtained twenty-one [Long Life Essences], becoming the most accomplished person in the Beast Taming Sect within ten thousand years.

Influenced by her, more and more monks began to devote themselves wholeheartedly to the activity of "Refining the Soul with Karma Fire".

Although compared with the previous "Peerless Sword" event, the threshold for this event is too high and not many monks can actually participate in it.

But every monk who participated in it obtained terrifying gains far beyond their imagination!
With just this one event, the entire cultivation world of [Yuxiao Realm] will surely be completely renewed!
Moreover, not only the human cultivators in the [Yuxiao Realm] benefited from it, but the demon cultivators in other realms also gradually woke up and began to use this [Karma Fire] to hone their own cultivation.

Around the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond] in the [Fantasy World], countless cultivators came and went in a hurry.

Moreover, each of these cultivators is top-notch, with powerful cultivation and extraordinary magical powers!
The amount of karma they can bear and digest, when combined, is far beyond imagination!
[The Empty Demon Body] stood beside the [Karma Fire Lotus Pond], observing the magnificent scene before it.

In just one year, the [Karma Fire] of six of the nine lotus ponds had been absorbed by the cultivators of all ranks in the [Fantasy World].

These cultivators, whether they are humans or demons from other realms, have achieved unimaginable improvements in their cultivation and enhancements in their magical powers through the training of this [Karma Fire].

Their progress, in turn, promoted the prosperity of the [Fantasy World], making this blessed land full of unprecedented vitality and vigor.

You must know that the [Karma Fire] in this pool is being poured from the [Tai Shi Body] all the time.

And standing behind him was the Buddha Ye Ye Hong Hong who had a high level of cultivation!
This [Fantasy World] carried all the [Karma Fire] pressure of [Tai Shi Body], which completely broke Han Yue's deadlock.

Outside the [Heavenly Palace Sea City], the raging [Karma Fire] burned [Tai Shi's body] for a full year.

At this moment, Han Yue's [Tai Shi Body] had already become as crystal clear as amber glass.

Every inch of his skin contains endless implications of the great Dao.

The calcination of the [Karma Fire] not only did not destroy him, but made his body and soul more condensed, like a precious weapon that had been tempered thousands of times and now shines with unprecedented brilliance.

The one-year suffering was, however, an unprecedented feast of spiritual practice for Taishi Shen.

Not only was he not consumed in this [Karma Fire], but his cultivation level slowly increased again because he continued to absorb and transform the tremendous power from [Karma Honghong Buddha].

However, the suppression of the magical power exerted by [Ya Ye Hong Hong Buddha] on his body has not been eliminated yet.

[Tai Shi Shen] could not move his hands, could not speak, and could only silently endure the burning of [karma fire].

However, he only hoped that the [Ye Ye Hong Hong Buddha] in front of him could last a little longer!
At present, this great Buddha has become the provider of food and clothing to millions of workers in the [Fantasy World], and the big brother for many young people.

If he stops supplying mana and stops the burning of this [Karma Fire], who knows how many people’s dreams will be shattered in his own [Fantasy World]!

[Tai Shi Shen] carefully sensed that the hundred [Pure Yang Dao Yuan] on his body had been destroyed by more than 70% of them by him and the pack of wolves in the [Fantasy World].

The remaining part now is only enough for him to carry out the "Karma Fire Refining Spirit" activity for another two months.

This is totally not enough!

Hongfo, could you please try harder?
How could he know that the current result had already shocked the [Ye Ye Hong Hong Buddha] on the opposite side!

He even felt like he was in a dilemma!

In his opinion, the mana output of a hundred [Pure Yang Dao Yuan] would cause some damage to the opponent even if the opponent was a cultivator of the [Pillar] level after such calcination.

However, the other party seemed to be fine and did not react at all!

For [Buddha Ye Honghong], the [Three Poisonous Ghost Bodhisattvas] are something he must obtain at all costs and he cannot afford to make any mistakes!
It is impossible to ask him to stop at this time, he can only do his best!

I saw [Ye Ye Hong Hong Buddha] secretly using his magic power to output a large amount of [Chun Yang Dao Yuan] to Han Yue again.

He didn't believe it! How could he, a [pillar] Buddha, lose to this Divine Sky monk who hadn't even completed the [gate] in a contest of magic power?
