Honghuang: I, Huanglong, refine the heavens and do not join the Chan sect

Chapter 118: The Blood of the Ancestral Witch, Suppressed for the Last Years
"Master, this is something that Sister Hou Tu asked me to give you. She said it's to repay you for your guidance."

As he spoke, Bai Mi took out a box made of gray stone from his sleeve and opened it in front of Huang Long.

The box was not big, and inside it was a stone slab made of the same material, and twelve drops of blood suspended in the box.

The moment he saw the twelve drops of blood, Huang Long's Eight-Nine Profound Art began to operate automatically.

If these twelve drops of essence and blood were taken, the Eight-Nine Profound Art would definitely be able to break through several small realms in succession in a short period of time, and it is not impossible to even complete a transformation.

Through this, Huang Long guessed the origin of these twelve drops of essence blood.

If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the essence and blood of the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

The Eight-Nine Profound Art was originally a top-notch technique created by the great god Pangu based on his own situation.

The Twelve Ancestral Witches were transformed from the essence and blood of the great god Pangu, so the essence and blood in their bodies can naturally greatly enhance the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

Huang Long suppressed the urge to refine the essence and blood immediately and looked at the stone slab inside the box.

Even if Huang Long had not practiced the Eight-Nine Profound Art, his physical body would still have been greatly improved after refining the twelve drops of the Ancestral Witch's blood.

And in the process of refining, one can also feel the great Dao contained in these twelve drops of essence and blood, and gain a better grasp of the corresponding great Dao.

For any Daluo Jinxian, this is a rare spiritual object.

Then the stone slab placed together with these essence and blood must not be an ordinary thing.

However, Huang Long didn’t know the origin of this stone slab and its function for the time being.

Until the moment he picked up the stone slab, many insights came to his mind, causing him to fall into enlightenment.

It was not until five hundred years later that Huang Long ended his enlightenment and opened his eyes again.

Strictly speaking, the stone slab was not a precious spiritual object, but just a low-grade acquired spiritual object that could isolate the aura.

What is truly valuable is what is recorded on this stone tablet.

This stone slab records Hou Tu's insights on the Axe of Creation.

If other people got this stone slab, they would not feel anything. Only those who have also watched the scene of the creation of the world can gain some insights.

Because Huang Long's cultivation was too low at that time, after seeing the scene of the creation of the world at Mount Buzhou, what he gained was far less than that of Hou Tu.

However, after gaining the insights shared by Hou Tu, Huang Long gained new insights into the scene of creation.

Now he used his magical power to simulate the Axe of Creation, and its power could be increased by at least 50%.

This is just the initial understanding he has digested. As long as he is given a few thousand more years to integrate these understandings, perhaps the power of his Axe of Creation can be doubled again!
In addition, Huang Long also observed Pangu's true body up close through the insights shared by Hou Tu, and gained a deeper understanding of the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

Not only in just over five hundred years, the Eight-Nine Profound Art has advanced two small realms and is one step closer to the first level.

More importantly, after gaining these insights, Huang Long's practice of the Eight-Nine Profound Art will be smoother in the future, and it can be said that he will get twice the result with half the effort. Before he reaches the fourth level of practice, there will be no more obstacles.

Huang Long had a hunch that as long as he could refine the twelve drops of the Ancestral Witch's blood and the two innate Wutong fruits, perhaps the Eight-Nine Profound Art would be able to successfully break through to the second level!

Huang Long took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, closed the box containing the twelve drops of the Ancestral Witch's blood, and put it into his sleeve.

With this achievement, the progress of practicing the Eight-Nine Profound Art has been greatly improved, which has relieved a lot of pressure, so he is not so anxious to practice anymore.

Afterwards, Huang Long called Bai Mi and the other two over and asked them about their practice over the years.

After all, he is the master of these three little guys. He has been away for more than 10,000 years. Now that he has returned to Yunmeng Fairy Island, it is natural for him to give the three of them some guidance in their practice.

"Reporting to Master, more than 3,000 years ago, my cultivation had just broken through to the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, and I was still some distance away from the perfection of Taiyi Golden Immortal..."

Lingxi stuck out her tongue and lowered her head to look at her toes.

Among the three, her cultivation level is the lowest, which is far behind Baimi Shengnong.

Little did people know that she was able to break through to the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal in just over ten thousand years, without any other opportunities, just by practicing in seclusion, and taking source liquid and spiritual fruits. What a surprising thing it was.

If Huang Long had not had many opportunities, it would have been difficult for him to break through from the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal to the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal in more than 10,000 years.

This is the benefit brought by good luck.

The mermaids are a large race that has existed since ancient times and have an extraordinary fortune.

A few years ago, Huang Long bestowed upon them the good fortune bestowed by heaven.

This further enhanced the fortune of the mermaids.

Lingxi alone possesses most of the mermaid clan's luck, so it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the child of luck.

The son of luck can be favored by the great world, not only can he get more opportunities, but also his practice will be smoother.

In addition, Lingxi had an extremely high level of comprehension, which enabled her to break through to the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal in more than 10,000 years.

"Practice well, and you will have a bright future."

Huang Long rubbed Lingxi's head.

With this good fortune, Lingxi can indeed achieve Daluo status with a little planning.

As for how far she can go in becoming a Golden Immortal, that depends on her future luck.

Then, Huang Long turned his gaze towards Mirage Dragon and asked softly:

"Has your cultivation been stable over the years?"

"Reporting to Master, my cultivation has stabilized, but I don't know when I can break through..."

"When it comes to spiritual practice, the most important thing to avoid is impatience. More haste, less speed. Just keep a calm mind."

The practice of Daluo Jinxian is different from that of Taiyi Jinxian. As long as the magic power is refined, it can be improved.

After reaching the Golden Immortal, in addition to refining magic power, it is more important to comprehend the great Dao of heaven and earth and improve one's own Taoism.

Many Golden Immortals with shallow roots and insufficient comprehension have found it difficult to make any progress in their cultivation even after tens of thousands of years.

Even if one wastes his entire life, he still remains in the early stage of Daluo Jinxian.

In the practice of Daluo Jinxian, opportunity is extremely important.

If one has enough chance to obtain an innate spiritual treasure, and comprehend the great principles contained therein by refining the divine forbidden art, or if one obtains some innate spiritual fruit, and after refining it, one's cultivation level can be greatly improved.

Unless one has tremendous luck, it is extremely difficult for a Golden Immortal to improve his cultivation just by practicing in seclusion.

But then again, isn't good fortune also an opportunity?

"Master, my cultivation has also improved!"

Without waiting for Huang Long to ask, Bai Mi waved her hands and jumped up excitedly. Then a wisp of pure air floated out from her brows and formed a cloud of celebration above her head.

In this celebratory cloud, in addition to a Dao seed of the Dao of Wind, there is also a green flower.

You can vaguely see a white crane among the flowers, with wisps of breeze wrapped around its body, flying freely in the sky.

"Eighth-grade Jinghua? You have achieved a breakthrough to become a Golden Immortal!"

After seeing the green Daluo Dao flower, Huang Long knew that Bai Mi had survived the heavenly tribulation, fished out his true spirit from the long river of fate, and became a Daluo Jinxian!
Although the fine flowers of white rice are only of the eighth grade, it is not the finest ninth grade.

But looking at the entire prehistoric world, apart from quasi-saints such as Donghuang Taiyi and Xiwangmu, how many people can produce ninth-grade essence flowers when they reach the Golden Immortal stage?
Even if it is an eighth-grade fine flower, only less than 10% of the Daluo Jinxian can possess it.

The eighth grade fine flower blooming from the white rice is already better than nine out of ten Daluo Jinxians.

As long as there are enough opportunities and the seventh or eighth grade divine flowers and qi flowers bloom, Bai Mi will have a hope of achieving the perfection of Daluo Jinxian.

As for the quasi-saint, it depends on her luck.

Later, Huang Long learned through questioning that Bai Mi had broken through to the Golden Immortal level in Heaven.

Bai Mi's cultivation had already reached the perfection of Taiyi Golden Immortal, and he could try to break through at any time. After refining that innate Wutong fruit, the chance of a breakthrough increased a little bit.

In addition, Donghuang Taiyi personally protected him and mobilized some of the luck of the Heavenly Court to help.

In the end, Bai Mi survived the heavenly tribulation without any danger, fished out his true soul from the long river of fate, and broke through to the early stage of Daluo Jinxian. From then on, he had endless lifespan and was free from the shackles of fate.

"I owe Donghuang Taiyi some opportunities again..."

Huang Long shook his head and sighed, but his strength was limited now, so he could only put the matter in his heart for the time being.

He looked at the three little guys in front of him and felt quite proud.

Among his three disciples, one was the son of destiny of the mermaid tribe. In just less than 20,000 years, he broke through from the Golden Immortal to the late Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, and had the potential to become a Daluo Golden Immortal in the future.

The other one is an innate sacred being transformed from the first ray of innate mirage after the creation of the world. When he first transformed, he already had the cultivation of an early Daluo Golden Immortal. With such a deep foundation, the early Daluo Golden Immortal is by no means his limit.

The last one had an inexplicable destiny. After practicing with him for more than 30,000 years, he broke through from an ordinary Golden Immortal to a Daluo Golden Immortal, becoming a rare powerful person in the prehistoric world.

The three disciples under his tutelage are all so outstanding that anyone would be proud of them.

After learning about the three disciples' practice over the years, Huang Long first spent nearly a hundred years explaining to them the problems they encountered during their practice.

Then, Huang Long took out a drop of the Enlightenment Source Liquid that had been fused nine times, brewed a pot of Enlightenment Source Tea, used the Enlightenment Source Tea to enhance the effect of his enlightenment, and preached to them for a thousand years.

He pointed out the future direction of their practice and made a practice plan for Lingxi.

As for how Baimi and Shenlong would practice in the future, Huanglong did not interfere too much.

The cultivation of Daluo Jinxian places more emphasis on chance. Too much interference would be detrimental to their cultivation. It would be good to point them in the right direction and help them avoid taking detours.

After finishing his preaching, Huang Long returned to the secret room and began his own practice.

Since he left the Yuan-Swallowing Gourd when he left Guixu, without this innate spiritual treasure, there was no way for him to refine the essence and blood of the Ancestral Witch and the innate Wutong Fruit into a more effective source liquid.

But fortunately, both the essence and blood of the ancestor witch and the innate Wutong fruit are rare and precious spiritual objects in the world. Even if they are not refined into source liquid, taking them directly will also have remarkable effects.

……

Heaven beyond heaven, Zixiao Palace.

Hongjun sat upright on a high platform. No one saw him speak and no one heard his voice, but many mysterious and strange phenomena appeared inside and outside the Zixiao Palace.

Even for the Golden Immortals, just by looking at these strange visions, they can come up with many insights out of thin air.

But this is still the most insignificant gain from staying in and outside the Zixiao Palace.

The greatest benefit is the great principle taught by Hongjun.

Unfortunately, as time went by, the great principles that Hongjun talked about became more and more mysterious, and fewer and fewer powerful people could understand these great principles.

Before Hongjun's third sermon was halfway through, 90% of the audience had already come out of their mysterious state of enlightenment.

Now in Zixiao Palace, except for the six people on the cushion, there are only a few people such as Di Jun, Donghuang Taiyi and Queen Mother of the West who can still understand what Hongjun said and maintain that wonderful state of enlightenment.

Moreover, the aura on them became increasingly powerful. Even though they were all quasi-saints, those who could not keep up with Hongjun's preaching had already fallen far behind in strength.

……

East China Sea Dragon Palace.

The Dragon King of the East Sea looked at the other three Dragon Kings projected by the mirror, frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice:

"How's the situation at the sea eye over there?"

"The situation in the West Sea is not optimistic..."

The Dragon King of the West Sea sighed, his words filled with helplessness and worry.

Although ever since the backflow of sea water nearly brought down divine punishment, the Golden Immortals of other races did not dare to interfere too much in the Dragon Clan's efforts to suppress the Sea Eye.

There were many fewer accidents in the tribe's suppression of the Sea Eye, and everything went according to plan.

However, the dragon clan followed Huang Long's instructions and simply suppressed the seawater, but did not refine the seawater in the sea eye.

As time goes by, more and more seawater accumulates in the sea eye, and the backlash caused becomes more and more serious.

If the dragon clan wants to continue suppressing the sea eye and prevent the sea water from flowing out, they will need to consume more power and the difficulty will become greater and greater.

According to this growth rate, in ten thousand years at most, they will not be able to suppress the sea water in the sea eye, and the suppressed sea water in the sea eye will gush out at that time.

A few years ago, several large sea eyes lost their control, causing sea water to gush out, causing the sea levels in the four seas to rise by more than ten meters.

If all the medium and large sea eyes in the four seas, as well as the giant sea eye suppressed by the Ancestral Dragon, were to lose their suppression, the seawater that would surge out at that time...

Just thinking about that scene, the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas felt a sense of fear.

"What should we do now? Continue to suppress the sea eye, or find a way to refine some of the sea water first?"

The North Sea Dragon King glanced at the other three Dragon Kings and asked with a worried look on his face.

After a moment of silence, the Dragon King of the East Sea shook his head and said:
"Since we have chosen to believe Huang Long, we should fully support his plan unless we have no other choice."

"We will suppress it for another 10,000 years. If Huang Long still hasn't figured out a way to repair the medium-sized sea eye by then, we will refine the seawater in the sea eye first!"

The Dragon King of the East China Sea made the final decision and decided to suppress the Sea Eye for another ten thousand years, then ended the meeting.
