Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 657 Before and After
Mo Baiyi closed his eyes and rested. Countless thoughts had already gone through his mind, considering how to send the fairy crystal back to the demon world.

This was his ultimate plan for this trip, and he was willing to risk his life for it.

For example, now, even though Mo Baiyi occupied Lao Mu's "broken" body, he did not consider using the fairy crystal on this body.

This is because he knows clearly that this possessed body has limited talent and spiritual roots. Even if its foundation is repaired, being able to cultivate to the Mahayana stage would be its limit. There is absolutely no hope for him to survive the catastrophe, let alone ascend to immortality.

And the Immortal Crystal is the only hope for the demon race to revive.

Before, he had hoped that he would be the one to obtain the immortal crystal and become an immortal, and that the demon race would be revived in his hands and return to their ancestral realm.

But his whereabouts were exposed by a traitor, and he was surrounded and killed by the four demon ancestors and his body was completely destroyed. He knew that the person could not be himself.

My luck has always been a little bad.

He was quite open-minded about the fact that he failed to become the founder of the revival.

As brilliant as his master, the Three Demon Ancestors including the Demon Ancestor Cangqiong, were, which one of them did not have profound accumulation and great fortune to ascend to immortality? They made all the preparations before they set out to impact the fairyland.
But God did not protect them, and they all lost their lives.

Sometimes fate is so unpredictable.

All he needed to do was to pass on the torch, send the immortal crystal back to the demon world, and leave it to the next peerless genius.

So, in his philosophy.

All of Mu Baijun’s subordinates, including those human refugees.

Even Mo Baiyi himself is a chess piece on the chessboard of the demon clan's revival in his mind.

As long as the final goal is achieved, it will be worth it even if everyone dies.

Mo Baiyi cleared his mind and muttered silently in his heart.

"Hunyuan Devouring..."

I saw countless tree roots under his Taoist robe digging deep into the earth and moving towards the distant mountains...

If someone looked down from a high altitude at this time, they would be able to see that the Mujunlin was originally a vast sea of ​​forests, but near Wanhuai Mountain, all the trees on a hilltop suddenly withered at the same time, turning from green to yellow, and then from yellow to black.

A gust of wind blew, and all the trees on the hill turned into ashes.

Just when all the plants on a hilltop became extinct, on Wanhuai Mountain, a hint of green appeared on Mu Baijun's body, and his eyes became brighter.

Mo Baiyi took over Mu Baijun's body.

This situation is considered as a residual soul taking over another body. This secret method is the Nine-Turn Possession Method, the core of which is a bit of true spirit in the broken soul, which takes over the body of the unlucky target's Nascent Soul and completely contaminates and assimilates it.

This unconventional method is used to absorb and control the opponent's Nascent Soul body, strengthen and complete one's own soul, and achieve the purpose of occupying the body.

Therefore, it can be said that Mu Baijun's Nascent Soul body was swallowed up, or it can be said that it was infected and dissolved.

Because the foundation of the Nascent Soul body inside the body is old wood, Mo Baiyi, the Mahayana saint, naturally mastered all of Mu Baijun's skills and magical powers in an instant, and they all seemed minor in his eyes.

What he really relies on is his Hunyuan Devouring Magic Skill. Of course, he is trapped in this body and his realm is too low, so the power of the magic skill he can display is also limited.

The so-called Hunyuan Devouring Demonic Art, after thousands of years of practice, has been advanced to an extremely high level by him.

It has several major characteristics.

One is as the name of the technique says, Hunyuan Devouring, it can devour the strong and turn their cultivation into one's own body, it is a quick way to achieve success, Mo Baiyi relied on this method to cause a great disturbance in the ancestral realm this time, and he didn't even need elixirs or spiritual stones to assist in his practice.

As long as there are demon cultivators around him, they are walking elixirs in his eyes.

Those fusion geniuses who were killed by him were swallowed one by one and turned into human-shaped pills.

In the new demon world, Mo Baiyi, in order to revive the demon clan, stopped at nothing and devoured many of the direct descendants of the noble blood families in his eyes in order to improve his own bones and bloodline.

The so-called noble bloodline family is a family that has produced successive generations of immortals in the history of the ten thousand years of demon rule.

Mo Baiyi offended many high-ranking demons because of this. Although he was the ancestor of the new demon world and the greatest contributor to leading everyone to settle down again, he knew that there was actually a large number of demons secretly opposing him.

This is also the reason why there are always traitors around him.

The second is to purify and refine. The many cultivation bases swallowed must be discarded and absorbed.

The absorber, Mo Baiyi, can obtain a core innate magical power of the swallowed creature after devouring hundreds of races. Therefore, throughout the ages, no one in the realm of Mahayana Saints knows more magical powers than him.

The purification of the immortal crystals in the bodies of the three semi-immortal remains was accomplished by relying on a purification magic power he had plundered.

Now, Mo Baiyi is using Mu Baijun's wood demon body to secretly practice his own devouring magic skills.

Mu Baijun had a difficult problem in his eyes, and Mo Baiyi also had to face the dilemma of leaving the breeding ground and cutting off half of his life.

The method of dealing with Mo Baiyi is much simpler.

The method of nourishing the land requires using the dense wood essence in the mountains to suppress the injuries on the body?
Mu Baijun's method is to borrow, and he will repay after borrowing. He will also mobilize the spiritual energy of the spiritual veins to strengthen the mountains and forests, thus forming a virtuous circle.

This is the fixed thinking of authentic wood monsters. They were born in the jungle and instinctively cannot stand the destruction of the jungle.

Just like fish would not intentionally pollute the water.

But Mo Baiyi is not a serious wood monster.

The wood demon is his body, a puppet for his actions, and his tool. He cannot empathize with a puppet tool body.

Mo Baiyi's method of dealing with it was his old way - devouring.

Since I am leaving soon, and I am in dire need of Yi wood essence to replenish my source, I might as well just dig it up by the roots.

This territory will soon belong to someone else.

What are the points of keeping those mountains and forests?
Of course, he would devour them all, just to make up for the loss of escaping from this place.

Mo Baiyi used his magic power and in just a few breaths he sucked the essence of all the spiritual plants on a mountain.

He felt the demonic power in his body recovering quickly, and even the damaged foundation of his body showed signs of recovery.

"If this stupid piece of wood had made up his mind earlier and drained this Mu Junlin, perhaps his foundation would have been completed a thousand years ago. How could he have become my container body?"

"Now it seems that draining the spiritual plants from the hundreds of hills around can only make up for the loss of uprooting, breaking meridians, and moving the body this time."

“But if I were to use Mu Baijun’s body to suck all the spiritual plants in Mujun Forest dry, the noise would be too loud and I’m afraid it would attract the attention of the old witch Golden Peng Demon Ancestor.”

"That old witch is very cunning. She knows that I am not dead, so she is very cautious inside. She sent many lackeys to investigate everywhere, and she herself stayed in Baisui Mountain, relying on her extreme speed to be ready to attack at any time."

"Humph, I killed her brother and Taoist partner, she won't let me off."

"So, this kind of absorption of Yimu spiritual energy should be done once or twice, but not three times, otherwise it will easily attract suspicious eyes."

"Well, the spiritual plants on the hilltops dozens of miles around Wanhuai Mountain are the essence of Mujunlin. It should be reasonable to absorb such a small territory."

"It's a shame. Half of the spiritual plants on the surrounding hills have been destroyed."

"Hmm? Was it the three-headed demon saint who did it?"

"Red Tiger Demon Saint? Sky Pig Demon Saint? Earth Bull Demon Saint?"

"Huh? They are the descendants of those three idiots in the Ten Thousand Mountains."

"Sure enough, we should have killed those three idiots back then, so they wouldn't cause trouble for us thousands of years later."

"Forget it, let's hurry up and absorb it."

The Mujun Forest stretches for thousands of miles, but the most important area must be the hundreds of hills near Wanhuai Mountain. The plants on each mountain are not ordinary species, but various rare and spiritual plants.

This is why Mu Baijun, Lu Ye and others set up the Qingmu Wuque Formation to cover hundreds of nearby hilltops.

It can be said that in the entire Mujun Forest, nearly half of the wood essence in the thousand-mile forest is here.

Mo Baiyi closed his eyes and hurriedly activated his magic power. He wanted to seize the time to absorb Yi Mu's essence.

An hour later, the sky was still as dark as ink.

At the foot of Wanhuai Mountain, a team of more than 5,000 people has gathered, in addition to a hundred or so monsters.

Everyone stood quietly and silently, looking up and waiting for the Demon Saint Mu on the mountain.

The time has come. On the mountainside.

Mo Baiyi opened his eyes and stood up.

He revealed his true form, and saw a giant tree a hundred feet tall rising up with a rumbling sound, the soil on the mountain rolled, and the earth shook.

The demons at the foot of the mountain had to move several miles away.

Then, countless thick tree roots emerged from the ground. They were the roots of the tree where "Mu Baijun" was hiding under the mountain.

This giant tree rises more than two hundred feet in the air, and its roots alone are nearly a hundred feet long. Its area is almost as large as the entire Wanhuai Mountain.

Wait until a certain moment.

There was a loud bang.

All the tree roots emerged from the ground, bringing out countless fragments of precious spiritual materials from under the roots.

It turned out that there was a Yimu formation at the foot of Wanhuai Mountain. It turned out that Mu Baijun relied on this formation to absorb the essence of the nearby mountains.

But now, as the tree roots were pulled out, the formation broke into pieces and was no longer effective.

Mu Baijun's body completely left the ground, then gradually became smaller, and finally transformed into an old man of the same height as an ordinary person, wearing a green robe.

Under my feet, nearly half of the remaining Wanhuai Mountain has completely collapsed, turning into a plateau covered with rubble and soil.

Mu Lin, Lu Ye and the Thousand-Faced Judge hurriedly flew up from below.

Among them, Mu Lin was the first to report with a sad face.

"Master, why are all the spiritual plants on the nearby mountains decaying..."

"It seems that all the energy has flowed to Wanhuai Mountain..."

He almost pointed at his master's nose and said, "Master, what are you doing? You are a wood monster!"
Mo Baiyi scolded immediately.

"Rotten wood! That's because Master absorbed the essence from it."

"We have to leave. Staying here will only aid the enemy."

"Understand?"

"I love flowers and plants more than you do; but if they fall into the hands of the enemy, they will be like cold spears and cold arrows shot at us!"

"Even in a forest that has been there for years, lightning will cause a forest fire, and nature will replace one generation after another. I am just giving it a little push, and that is in line with the way of heaven."

"Go down and figure it out!"

"You are still far from understanding the Way of Wood!"

Mo Baiyi is a Mahayana saint who has a lot of fallacies and heresies. He only says things that are useful to himself, so it is no problem for him to fool Mu Lin.

Mu Lin was scolded harshly and retreated with a look of grievance on his face.

He began to doubt himself. Could it be that he had misunderstood the meaning of nature?
"lets go……"

Mo Baiyi turned around and nodded to the Thousand-Faced Judge and Lu Ye.

The two of them responded quickly.

Lu Ye flicked his sleeves and a small boat flew out immediately. He forgot which demon king's treasure it was plundered from.

This boat is a strange mixture of things, with an eagle head and feathers, and is made of precious exotic wood. However, it is made mainly from the remains of a powerful demon clan, and it is obvious that it was made by the demon clan.

When the small boat flew into the sky, it had turned into a giant eagle over a hundred feet long, perfect for carrying people.

The giant eagle descended to a low altitude, and the cultivators used their aerial skills to pull the mortal people on the ground onto the boat.

Mu Baijun and his wood monsters also took off and boarded the ship.

Because Mu Lin was heartbroken and didn't know how to face his master, he was sent to steer the boat.

Mo Baiyi flew in the air and pointed several fingers at the ground, and several green phosphorous flames fell from the sky.

This fire belongs to the Yin Fire of the Wood Element, and is Mu Baijun's original magical power.

The green Yin Fire was burning so dimly that its light was almost invisible, but everything on the hundreds of hilltops below was set on fire, even the rocks and soil were burned.

Lu Ye knew very well that Mo Baiyi wanted to erase all traces of his existence and was extremely cautious.

It seems that Mo Baiyi also has a lot of troubles behind him, which are much more troublesome than the Three Demon Saints.

Mu Lin, who was standing on the bow of the ship and was in charge of controlling the direction, almost burst into tears when he saw this.

In order to survive, Master really doesn’t want to be a wood monster anymore.

Half of the spiritual plants on the mountains below were destroyed in the war, and half were swallowed by Master himself.

Although the surface is a scorched earth, there are many alien species in the spiritual intelligence with tenacious vitality. They can survive as long as some roots remain.

Now that the fire has spread, it is completely gone.

Mu Lin was so desperate that he could only focus on steering the ship.

Mo Baiyi ignored him and summoned Lu Ye and the Thousand-Faced Judge.

"My two nephews."

"I had planned to sit here and die, and then explode my body when I died, to see if I could take away one or two powerful enemies."

"Even if it fails, it can be transformed into the essence of Yimu in the sky and feed back to this forest."

"As for you, you can only rely on your luck to escape."

"Originally, I was going to confront you tonight and let you escape first. I will stay here to attract the enemy and cover the rear."

Lu Ye thought to himself - this is definitely not your idea, but Mu Baijun’s real idea.

It turned out that Old Wood had already intended to die.

Lu Ye’s mind was as clear as a mirror, but he still forced his eyes to turn red, as if he was about to cry.

"Senior, you have been so kind to us juniors. If you were to die, how would we go back and explain to your Master Qingyuan?"

It’s just acting, let’s just act together.

Mo Baiyi smiled and waved.

"I have changed my mind."

"What's the good of staying where you are?"

"If there is a mistake, he will be caught."

"It would be fine if this body is destroyed, but what if this body is captured by the enemy?"

"Am I really going to be used as a bed board by that old whore of the Red Tiger Demon Saint? The thought of it makes me sick to death."

"So, I'd better run away..."

Mo Baiyi muttered in his heart, "Master Green Ape"?
I was searching through Mu Baijun’s memories in my mind. Huh?

This green ape looks somewhat like the little demon saint green ape who enlightened him to enlightenment in the Ten Thousand Mountains and fought him to a draw.

But it's just a resemblance.

Later, when the demons and monsters fought a decisive battle, he was caught up in the bloody fight all day long. He didn't even have time to practice, and he didn't know what happened to the little demon saint.

Since he was unknown and forgotten by the world, he must have died in some turmoil, right?

fair enough!

The earlier you die, the more relief you will feel!
People like me are afraid to die and cannot die!
