Refining Demons to Become a Taoist: Refining 108,000 Insects at the Beginning.

Chapter 305 Regret
"Your idea is exactly what I was thinking!" Chen Ming said.

Xiangyuan Zhenjun smiled and said, "Since we have decided to join forces, Chen Zhenjun, please return those two puppets to me."

Cangji and Huannie, two puppets at the True Monarch Realm, had long been refined by Chen Ming into their origin, becoming the foundation of the Xuanming Pearl.

How can it be returned to True Lord Xiangyuan?

However, Chen Ming remained calm and said indifferently, "That's natural, but we'll talk about it after this matter is over."

Xiangyuan Zhenjun's smile froze; he hadn't expected Chen Ming to be so unyielding.

Despite having clearly shown sincerity, Chen Ming still wouldn't budge.

But right now, True Lord Xiangyuan doesn't want to break off relations.

She made up her mind that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, she would cooperate with Chen Ming. Once Chen Ming revealed a weakness, she would strike and eliminate him in one fell swoop.
"Very well, I hope Chen Zhenjun will keep his word!"

"That's natural!"

As the two were speaking, the Yellow Springs Divine Palace trembled once more, bursting forth with brilliant light and a deafening roar.

The torrent of the Yellow Springs appeared, encircling the Yellow Springs Palace, endlessly cycling.

It manifests countless worldly phenomena such as greed, anger, ignorance, hatred, birth, old age, sickness, and death, which are constantly disappearing and reappearing, which is truly astonishing.

If one falls into it, only a True Lord can escape!

Even a True Lord, if he gets too deeply involved and stays there for too long, will have to pay a considerable price to escape from the torrent of the Yellow Springs.

Suddenly, the torrent of the Yellow Springs began to flow backward, attempting to completely merge with the Yellow Springs Divine Palace!
"Oh no! Stop it now!"

"If the two merge, we will all perish here!"

As Xiangyuan Zhenjun spoke, countless talismanic lights rose from his body.

But she was a beat too slow. The two ancient True Lords, Black Rope and Wheel, had already made their move in the distance.

Those two must have foreseen this scene long ago.

Previously, they had not taken any action, but were secretly laying out plans and arranging methods.

In an instant, a huge wheel appeared in the Yellow Springs Secret Realm, slowly rotating and emitting mysterious chanting incantations.

The torrent of the Yellow Springs, flowing backwards, was somewhat halted by the influence of the roulette wheel.

But the roulette wheel spun faster and faster!

"Boom!"

The torrent of the Yellow Springs split in two. One part continued to fall into the Yellow Springs Divine Palace, while the other part rushed over and landed on the wheel, where it was received and refined.

Immediately afterwards, countless black ropes appeared and extended, twisting and turning into one, like a giant black python opening its blood-red maw to suddenly swallow!

"Boom!"

With another loud bang, the torrent of the Yellow Springs split into another stream, which was swallowed up by the giant python formed from the black rope!
Seeing this scene before him, Chen Ming immediately understood!

The wheel and the countless black ropes were manifestations of the true Daoist intent of the Wheel-Turning True Lord and the Black Rope True Lord.

The two ancient True Lords had now merged themselves with the intent of the true path they cultivated, and were intercepting the torrent of the Yellow Springs!

It turns out that the so-called opportunity was neither the Yellow Springs Divine Palace nor any treasure within it!
The opportunity lies right before your eyes in this torrent of hell!
That is the condensation of the true Dao intent of the Yellow Spring Emperor; the Yellow Spring Torrent is his true Dao stepping stone!

It contains the power of the Yellow Springs Emperor; whoever obtains it will become the next Lord of the Yellow Springs.

The Yellow Springs Secret Realm and the Yellow Springs Daoist lineage will all submit to it!

"Okay!"

"They are all so cunning!"

"They won't reveal a single thing. In their eyes, am I nothing but a clown!"

Xiangyuan Zhenjun's face was extremely ugly, and he said in a resentful voice.

She cultivated the Yellow Springs Dao lineage and was also from the Ten Kings Palace lineage, yet she had no idea that this was the case before!
I thought we were going to enter the Yellow Springs Divine Palace to find opportunities and treasures to advance further!

Seeing that the Yellow Springs Divine Palace had developed sentience was already surprising enough for True Monarch Xiangyuan, but she never expected that the two ancient True Monarchs, Zhuanlun and Heisheng, would be even more ferocious than she imagined! They actually directly manifested the true meaning of the Dao and fought and devoured each other.

They showed no mercy, determined to determine a winner and a loser before stopping!

Although Xiangyuan Zhenjun spoke with ruthless words, she was not the kind of person who would risk everything, and dared not easily reveal her true Dao to fight.

This only fueled her hatred, making her grit her teeth in resentment!

"If my two True Dao Realm puppets were still here, things wouldn't have come to this..."

Suddenly, Xiangyuan Zhenjun remembered the two puppets he had painstakingly created through countless schemes.

Her thoughts, as they flowed, naturally could not escape Chen Ming's perception.

Chen Ming sneered and said, "What, is True Lord Xiangyuan going back on his word and going to oppose me?"

“How could that be? True Lord Chen is joking. In the current situation, does True Lord Chen have any way to get a share of the pie?” True Lord Xiangyuan said, calming his emotions.

"Of course there is a way!"

"If True Lord Xiangyuan lends me a hand, it's not that I can't compete with them!" Chen Ming said calmly.

Upon hearing this, True Lord Xiangyuan was overjoyed!
This Chen Zhenjun really has hidden tricks up his sleeve!

Otherwise, how could he remain so calm amidst the overwhelming power manifested by the ancient True Lords, Wheel of Reincarnation and Black Rope, and the Yellow Springs Divine Palace fighting each other?

"Of course, of course. How can I help you, True Lord Chen?" True Lord Xiangyuan spoke much more sincerely at this moment.

Chen Ming smiled and gently swayed the Five Qi Tree branch in his hand.

A red lotus mark blooms between the eyebrows, with a bright red dot at the center of the lotus!

At this point, Chen Ming no longer concealed himself and fully revealed his profound secrets.

In an instant, purple lightning shone above Chen Ming's head, giving rise to auspicious clouds, and the sun, moon, and stars appeared.

Immediately afterwards, the five emperors, each holding a precious flag, settled in one of the five directions.

One hundred and eight thousand insects transformed into one hundred and eight thousand illusory realms, endlessly arising and ceasing.

All these wondrous and mysterious things belong to Chen Ming.

"This, this, this..."

Xiangyuan Zhenjun was stunned for a moment.

The path of the True Lord lies in comprehending the meaning of the True Dao, uniting with the meaning of the True Dao, establishing oneself based on this, and then continuously comprehending and condensing the steps of the True Dao, gradually approaching the Great Dao.

However, the true meaning of the Dao of ordinary True Lords is often very pure.

For example, the true meaning of the Dao of True Lord Xiangyuan is talismans.

For example, the true meaning of the Wheel-Turning True Lord is rebirth, which manifests as the enormous Wheel of Rebirth. The true meaning of the Black Rope True Lord is binding and control, which manifests as countless black ropes.

The original Yellow Spring Emperor's true Dao intent only transformed into the Yellow Spring Torrent after it condensed into a tier!

But now, the mysterious phenomena manifested by Chen Ming have completely exceeded the imagination of True Lord Xiangyuan!

"This...this is not the Yellow Springs lineage!"

"Who exactly are you, and what kind of magic do you practice?"

Even Xiangyuan Zhenjun's voice trembled slightly.

She had already seen the true spiritual light of her two True Monarch puppets within the strange phenomenon behind Chen Ming.

Sometimes it transforms into strange insects, sometimes it becomes rigid, and sometimes it becomes a realm of illusion, subject to birth and death.

In the blink of an eye, countless years had passed within the strange phenomena manifested by Chen Ming, with the world changing and the sun and moon revolving.

"I beg True Lord Xiangyuan for your help!" Chen Ming's voice came with a smile.

Xiangyuan Zhenjun's expression froze for a moment, and then he saw the five colors of light—green, yellow, red, black, and white—intertwine into a giant hand that reached out to grab him.
