Chapter 314 Demonic Path Panel, Planting the Demonic Seed

The panel has changed.

In the "Bindable" section, a "Taoist/Demon" option appears, and the binding options indicated by the two options are different.

The original binding was: the human race recognized by Li Ye.

Now there's another one: humans with desires. Depending on the different desires of the human race, there are different enhancement effects after taking it.

And Li Ye could also sense it.

What it needs is a completely new kind of enhanced "power".

Or rather, the deadly ashes, which are the opposite of the essence of life, belong to "dead silence".

To obtain this power of deathly stillness, it seems that he needs to personally end his own life in order to obtain the ashes of deathly stillness from the demise of life.

Furthermore, it seems that one must maintain the flow of demonic energy within the body in order to obtain it.

So, does this mean this is considered a cheat code for demonic cultivators?

But demonic cultivators also farm?
"..."

Even Li Ye hadn't expected his panel to change like this, but since he was already here, he might as well make the best of it and use it.

It's a pity that there's only this one kind of spiritual plant here right now, and he can't even see any more. If the Jianmu tree were still here, he could have observed so many species inside.

"Ugh."

He straightened up.

It could be sensed that the mad monk had now spread his demonic energy from here to a deeper level of the world.

It seems quite serious.

The demonic seed is growing larger and larger.

Will he really be able to handle it then?
But Li Ye was not particularly worried, and even a little relaxed.

"Big brother."

What exactly are you doing?

He looked into the distance.

In a special space, Li Ye's senior brother, Jiang Guichen, was indeed looking up at the sky.

Standing beside this Golden Core cultivator were two "clones" who were almost identical to him.

The three of them gazed at the sky together.

One of them sighed, "Such beautiful sunshine, I'm afraid we'll never see it again. That guy was really smart; he used his metamorphosis to break free from your influence."

"Actually, you can do that too."

Jiang Guichen looked at his two avatars made from the Compassionate Fruit, a smile always playing on his lips.

"I have a feeling that my Nascent Soul opportunity lies here, and it might even fall into the hands of that junior brother. I'm really looking forward to it."

The avatar dressed in black frowned and said, "But I can feel his demonic energy is eroding the depths of the Hell Path. This should be the Dao Heart Demon Seed, one of the highest inheritances of the Four Seasons Sect."

Aren't you afraid he won't be able to control this demonic energy?

If he really loses his Dao heart and falls into demonic possession, then your Four Seasons Sect will probably produce another great demon.

Or... such a special great demon.

The avatar in white robes said, "Then it depends on how special his Dao foundation is. After all, the Dao and the demons complement each other. If the Dao foundation is too large and the demon seed is too small, that's not good either."

Having spent every day here, they've gotten used to chatting with each other, and generally it's all about undermining each other. Only when neither of them can convince the other will Jiang Guichen make the decision.

Logically speaking, this isn't a stage where neither side can convince the other, since it's just a peaceful discussion. But Jiang Guichen suddenly spoke up:
"But you haven't considered a third possibility."

Both avatars were stunned upon hearing this.

They pondered for a while, and the black-robed avatar, still frowning, said, "You mean he wants to control this demonic energy and prevent it from being completely devoured by the Dao?"

But isn't this also a kind of integration with the Tao?

"He can't possibly create avatars too, can he? I've had contact with him, and he doesn't seem to be someone who creates avatars casually."

"correct."

"The Dao Heart Seed Demon is essentially a demon seed carried by the Dao foundation. In the final analysis, it is still a demon seed that is immersed in the Dao principles. The fruit that grows can only be considered a demon that has been changed by the Dao."

"so……"

Jiang Guichen said calmly, "There has never been a demonic path in this world that can walk openly and honestly. If Junior Brother has this ability, I believe the sect will be very happy to accept it."

After all, as our Four Seasons Sect expands outwards, we will inevitably encounter some demonic forces. It is always difficult to incorporate them. But if we had a powerful expert who is proficient in demonic arts but whose heart is with the Daoist sect...

Then that's not a problem.

That's really quite outrageous.

It should be noted that many cultivators have upheld the concept that the Dao and the demonic paths are irreconcilable since they began their cultivation, but he, as a core disciple of the Four Seasons Sect, actually felt that the demonic path was unimportant.

Some even hoped that their junior brother would become the leader of the demonic path.

This is really true.

That's quite interesting.

"It's a pity that the two of us won't be able to see it."

The white-robed avatar shook his head: "It's about time, isn't it? It should begin soon. Otherwise, if the demonic energy really spreads to the core of the Hell Path, it might truly become a Hell Transformation Diagram in name and in reality."

"Ah."

Jiang Guichen's expression became much more serious.

"Now it all depends on how well my junior brother and I work together. When I advance to the Nascent Soul stage, my Spirit Domain will open, which will surely put everything to sleep. At that time, he will be able to take the Demon Seed back into himself, and then this matter will be accomplished."

He sat cross-legged on the ground.

Then, as he opened his arms, his two avatars revealed smiles of relief, transforming into two beams of light that merged into his body.

Followed by.

A pill, as bright as the sun, rose above his head, but the power emanating from it was as gentle as the night sky.

Night gradually fell.

Ignoring all spatial barriers and all formations, it spreads like the rising and setting of the sun and moon, a natural law that nothing can stop it from spreading.

This is somewhat similar to Ruomu, the incarnation of Li Ye.

However, it is far more domineering than Li Ye's "Nightfall"—it forcibly puts all living beings, whether they are hungry ghosts, celestial beings, or beings trapped in the hell realm, into a deep sleep.

The gentle night embraced them as they drifted off to sleep.

This even includes the constantly operating arrays belonging to the Hell Path and various supernatural Dao patterns.

This power could not possibly be just the power of the night, but also the "Ritual Soul" from the "Nine Songs," the highest teaching of the Four Seasons Sect.

That method was originally meant to send off the gods after everything was over. It possessed the special ability to render all supernatural powers and spells useless, and when combined with the cover of night, it was practically invincible.

The combination of natural laws and the power of "Li Hun" is like being forced into a deep sleep after the sun sets. Even monks cannot resist this power and directly demonstrated to Li Ye that they fell asleep as soon as their heads hit the pillow.

—From beginning to end, the eldest brother never took this painting spirit, who barely advanced to the Nascent Soul stage thanks to the legacy of his ancestors, seriously. What he sought was the entire Hell Transformation Diagram.

Li Ye: “…”

He cautiously approached for a closer look. He found the monk's eyes wide open, but completely lifeless. Although his consciousness was still resisting, he couldn't defy the natural order and had forced himself to sleep.

"So he was asleep."

"I thought he was dead. What a pity."

He shook his head, then quickly left the coordinates, and in just a moment a spatial portal opened.

The first to enter was Daoist Chunhui.

Then came his master and mistress, and even his second senior brother, You Tianzhen, his third senior brother, Chen Mo, and his fifth senior brother, Lingji Teng, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, all came over in a grand procession.

It's strange to say.

It's been so long, where is my fourth senior brother? It's been almost a hundred years, and I still haven't seen him. It's really strange.

"Huh, such heavy demonic energy."

Chen Mo, who was closest to Li Ye, covered his nose, frowned, and circled around Li Ye: "Your demonic energy has already infiltrated other small spaces. If you don't quickly retract the demonic seed, you'll become a demon!"

Li Ye first greeted the elders before replying:

"This is the great divine power of planting demons in the heart of the Dao... Sigh, never mind, there's really no way to communicate with someone like you who hasn't learned this kind of divine power."

He was in a very good mood at the moment, and the demonic energy entering his body was having some effect, so his words naturally carried a bit of arrogance.

But he was already so elegant and refined, and this sudden display of arrogance made his master and mistress glance at him sideways, and even Daoist Chunhui laughed:
"That's it."

"You're usually a bit too modest, but excessive modesty can be off-putting. A young man should be full of vigor and ambition, that's what's good."

The master's wife nodded in agreement: "It seems that your descent into demonic possession has its advantages. Why not leave some traces to prevent you from behaving like that on a daily basis?"

Master and Senior Brother You Tian didn't say anything, because after arriving here and confirming that Li Ye was alright, they immediately flew off in a certain direction.

But it's a pity.

The spatial barriers here are quite stable.

Even the two of them couldn't get close for a while, not to mention the demonic energy, the gathering heavenly tribulation, and the spiritual power of the Hell Path itself that were hindering them.

So they returned empty-handed.

It was rare for the master to show a hint of melancholy:

"Xiao Qi, how come time flies so fast? That child is already about to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, and it's such a special Nascent Soul stage at that."

The master's wife blushed. If it weren't for the fact that everyone present was one of their own, she would have definitely wanted to have a good fight, so that the old man, who was hundreds of years old, wouldn't say such intimate things.

They're still talking about it outside!
Li Ye and his two senior brothers simply pretended not to have seen it.

Moreover, he needed to quickly gather all the demonic energy back, otherwise, when the heavenly tribulation descended, even the most powerful demonic energy would probably be shattered by the tribulation at the Nascent Soul level.

Then all the demon seed he had painstakingly cultivated would be wasted.

however.

When he sent the demonic energy into his own body, he suddenly felt that the demonic energy inside his body... seemed ridiculously powerful.

The forces involved are extremely complex.

It contains the power of Jianmu (a type of wood), moonlight, sunlight, flint, yin and yang, the five elements, life and death... It's so complex that it could open a dye shop. If it were statistically analyzed, it would probably be a very complex fan-shaped diagram.

"How is this going?"

He looked completely bewildered.

After checking with the help of the array left behind on Ruoquan Island, it was discovered that the gods had descended with their divine power, which had all merged into the demon seed...

Isn't that giving me way too much credit?
Li Ye's first reaction was shock, and his second reaction was confusion—because he felt that although this power was incredibly strong and very complex, it was still within his ability to contain.

Even the Jianmu tree rooted in the dantian, used to control the flow of spiritual energy and as the first line of defense, was... gleaming with spiritual light?

and many more.

He probed his divine sense into the Jianmu tree.

As a result, the five-colored radiance that originally emanated from the panel at the top of the Jianmu World's dome fell below and merged into the life-giving water produced by Jianmu.

The once vibrant green water now sparkled brilliantly.

Furthermore, as the spiritual energy within the Jianmu tree circulates, it gradually permeates the entire tree, and the vitality of the Jianmu tree is growing rapidly, likely about to undergo a second growth phase.

This is truly an unexpected surprise.

During this time, Li Ye had not relaxed his cultivation of the Jianmu tree, but unfortunately, the Jianmu tree was quite difficult to grow. Even though he had been watering it with merit, it would take several hundred years for it to grow again.

I never expected to grow this time.

Is it because of demonic energy or the power of the panel?
He didn't know, but it was indeed a good thing, so he didn't think much of it.

Because nothing is easy to replicate.

Therefore, his top priority is to plant the demon seed properly as soon as possible.

He calmed his mind and focused his attention.

More and more demonic energy was sent into his dantian like a whale swallowing a cow, forming a rotating Tai Chi symbol with his golden core.

of course.

While absorbing the demonic energy, he didn't forget to secretly take some Heavenly Blessed Rice. If these unique spiritual plants were cultivated, they would be extraordinary.

As for the elders of the sect, they quickly controlled the monk's main divine thought, and then began to build an array that could truly control the Hell Path, starting from this point.

It seems like everything is going in the right direction.

but.

When Li Ye completely absorbed the demonic energy into his body, an unexpected change occurred.

The demonic seed that had been obediently circling around the Golden Core suddenly emitted an extremely strong consciousness—it contained far too much power, and even gave birth to basic spirituality through this power.

The first reaction that arises from spirituality is the desire for freedom and an endless hunger, which is the first reaction of many living beings.

So of course it wanted to devour that golden pill that looked extremely delicious—the demonic energy surged toward the golden pill.

It even instinctively knew how to utilize the divine power it contained—the dim moonlight, the pitch-black sunlight, the cold flint, the rebellious five elements…

It exploited all the great power bestowed upon it by these gods.

It can even imitate Li Yehui's supernatural powers with demonic energy, and do so with remarkable accuracy.

Especially the symphony.

This divine power caused countless jet-black willow branches to grow on Ruomu's body, freely radiating its power to the outside world.

—This is the test of the demon seed.

He planted demonic seeds in his Taoist heart, transforming all his supernatural powers into demonic powers.

If Li Ye cannot defeat it and erases its spirituality, turning it into an ordinary seed, he will not die, but he will completely fall into the demonic path.

But Li Ye frowned and didn't move.

He had some doubts in his mind—is a demon seed also considered a seed?

Why did the panel actually work?
