"what!"
Those seemingly slow-moving flesh and blood roots suddenly transformed into sharp spikes, piercing the cultivator through.
His screams gradually became shrill, and his body swelled by nearly half, transforming into a hideous monster of flesh and blood.
"Young Master Lin, perhaps it's best not to go in..." The Kunpeng Clan cultivator caught up, panting.
The next second, Lin Ye immediately turned around and said, "Let's go!"
The great demon of calamity has been born.
This thing is extremely dangerous. Even the ancestors dared not get close to it once it matured. Its core is also the raw material for making blood disaster antibodies.
Ordinary cultivators who dare to enter this environment will only be an obstacle and will only be infected and become the minions of the great demon.
'Once I reach the tenth level of Qi Refining...'
'Bring an army-sized force of automated flying swords and mechanical warriors, plus some suicide drones... that should be enough to wipe out the Great Demon!'
Chapter Eighty-Seven: Blood of the Immortal Emperor
soon.
Return to the surface.
Lin Ye said seriously, "The underground environment is indeed very dangerous, just as we've heard. Take a look at the photos."
Kun Zhengqing's mouth dropped open: "Could it be... that a calamity is truly imminent?"
“Ah Kun, I see that your attendant is quite brave, not bad.”
Kun Zhengqing raised his head slightly and patted his attendant on the shoulder encouragingly: "Really? Since you've said so... go back and arrange a good job for him!"
A look of joy flashed in the eyes of the Kunpeng clan follower, who quickly said loudly, "Thank you, young master! Thank you, young master Lin!"
I never expected that Young Master Lin would speak so highly of me to the young master!
He glanced at Lin Ye with a grateful look.
"Shouldn't we tell the brothers about this so everyone can prepare in advance?"
Lin Ye nodded: "Okay, let's go."
A few hours later.
The importance of the message has been conveyed. After seeing the photos taken by Lin Ye, the group was somewhat alarmed and said they would make preparations as soon as possible.
Lin Ye then returned to the workshop on Danhuo Avenue, and soon returned to the mine with the newly made props, placing several automatic detectors with cameras into the barrier.
The barrier is essentially a product of spiritual energy.
To the Great Demon, it's like paper.
However, to prevent unauthorized personnel from entering, Lin Ye set up an independent barrier outside the Kunpeng clan's barrier.
The environment within the range of the Discipline Star is peaceful, and the Great Demon will not leave on its own before it matures. Lin Ye needs to use these detectors to observe its growth status.
Historically, it is recorded that it does not attack mortals, and indeed, a detector powered entirely by electricity is also immune to attacks from the Great Demon.
'It seems that to the Great Demon, objects without spiritual energy are practically invisible.'
'Even in future history books, there are never any records of observing the larvae of the Calamity Demon, which suggests that they develop into adults underground before attacking the surface.'
"It's rare to see a young Great Demon. It will most likely devour spirit stones. Let's observe it."
Lin Ye used the detector to push a spirit stone that had fallen from the mine toward the flesh and blood of the Great Demon.
It wriggled and began to slowly devour the spirit stones. Just like the cultivator's flesh and blood, the spirit stones were also transformed into scarlet flesh and blood.
It's just that the speed is much slower than the speed at which the human body is infected.
'No wonder it abandons the underground after maturing and instead attacks cultivators on the surface; it seems spirit stones are hard to digest.'
Lin Ye tried to make the Great Demon devour the spiritual artifact materials and ordinary ores containing a very small amount of spiritual energy.
Finally, Lin Ye discovered that the assimilation speed of the Great Demon, from fastest to slowest, was: living cultivators, cultivator corpses, spirit stones, spirit weapon materials, and ordinary minerals.
'This ordinary stratum is actually the slowest thing to erode for it...' Lin Ye couldn't help but be surprised by the strangeness of the Great Demon.
The bloodshed spreads along with spiritual energy, and even great demons are highly sensitive to it.
'However, if we only consider the spiritual energy content within a specific volume, the spiritual energy content per unit of a high-grade spirit stone is far greater than that of these cultivators underground.'
'I have to try...'
'A mid-grade spirit stone will do; the effect is the same.'
Lin Ye dropped a mid-grade spirit stone and had the detector push it over.
When the Blood Calamity Demon came into contact with it, it also devoured it at a very slow speed, even slower than when it devoured a low-grade spirit stone.
Lin Ye fell into deep thought: "That doesn't make sense. The spiritual energy concentration of a mid-grade spirit stone is higher than that of a Qi Refining cultivator's body. The infection speed of the Great Demon is not determined by the spiritual energy concentration. What is the truth?"
'A cultivator's body is closer to that of flesh, making them easier to devour, is that right...? For such a high-level being, are superficial properties really that important?'
Lin Ye suddenly remembered something that hadn't been tested yet: "Heavenly treasures! That's right, spirit stones can't be absorbed directly, but heavenly treasures can be absorbed directly by cultivators! Their properties should be quite similar to those of a cultivator's flesh and blood."
Give it a try!
Lin Ye took out a low-grade first-rank natural treasure.
The demon's flesh trembled upon contact and was quickly devoured, though at a slightly slower pace than when it devoured a cultivator's corpse.
Lin Ye asked疑惑地问道, 'Does that mean the older something is, the slower it is absorbed?'
'There's a hypothesis in the future that rare and precious materials are formed from the corpses of cultivators.'
Based on the assimilation speed of the Great Demon, the order is: Cultivator > Rare and precious materials > Spirit stones > Spirit weapon materials > Ordinary rocks...
'Could it be that the entire geological strata of the cultivation world are formed from the accumulated corpses of ancient cultivators?!'
Thinking of this, Lin Ye swallowed hard.
This sounds like utter nonsense, yet it's incredibly terrifying!
'Why haven't we heard of this doctrine in the future? Was it lost in the Dharma-ending Age? Never mind that, let's keep pushing forward...'
According to this hypothesis, rare and precious materials are transformed from the corpses of cultivators from more recent times, while those from more distant times become materials for spiritual artifacts. The corpses of the most distant cultivators, however, have completely lost their spiritual energy and become ordinary geological formations.
'So, the number of living cultivators in the modern cultivation world is merely a negligible fraction compared to those who have died!'
'How long has the cultivation world actually existed?'
Lin Ye keenly realized a problem: 'What is the actual ground, at the very bottom of the earth's strata, made of?'
Or is it that everything in this world is merely the corpses of cultivators, and there is no true ground?
Think about this.
Lin Ye's face was already pale, and he felt a chill in the wind, so he shivered involuntarily.
'If the timeline is this long!'
'If I reincarnate against the timeline, perhaps one lifetime will bring me incredible luck, granting me an invincible start and allowing me to become a true powerhouse?'
'This supreme being, in order to ensure my [successful birth], might want to prevent me from becoming an immortal in this life... Perhaps even as just a possibility, it already possesses the power to influence the future!?'
'After all, if I didn't continue to reincarnate into the past, He couldn't have been born!'
Lin Ye was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. If something of this level caused trouble, he would be completely helpless.
"It's so cold!"
Lin Ye suddenly exclaimed.
In the previous instant, in a place unseen by Lin Ye, in the void, a drop of blood flowed backward along the river of time.
It was dazzling and radiant, emanating immense power that shattered another opposing force.
The luster of the blood dimmed considerably because of this collision.
A drop of blood suddenly appeared inside Lin Ye's body, rising and falling, releasing a dazzling light, and he felt his body being filled.
What followed was a strange feeling that defies description.
Lin Ye discovered that his perspective had shifted to that drop of blood, and the spiritual energy around him was like a mist, which was actually his own inner space.
The endless white light gradually faded away, and Lin Ye controlled his consciousness to return to its normal state; he had calmed down.
This drop of blood gave him an unparalleled sense of closeness.
They came from the same body.
His future...possibilities from this life!
'Yes, if it's possible that my past self became ridiculously powerful, then it's also possible that my future self could become so.'
'After offsetting the two, the result is approximately zero.'
'Neither of them is real. If I commit suicide now, this drop of blood will vanish instantly, and my possibility of becoming stronger will cease to exist... No wonder it senses a high-level aura, yet contains no power whatsoever.'
'Furthermore, could it be that because I consistently act against the timeline, my future self has an advantage when transferring power? No, that doesn't make sense. Aside from the brief moments I die each time, I've always survived along the normal timeline.'
'Whatever, at least the blood was delivered by courier.'
'After all, there are only two possibilities. If I die, the possibility of reaching the future will be extinguished, so it doesn't have much reference value for me now.'
'I must cling to life; if I die, I might immediately lose this drop of blood, and my fate will become even closer to my past self.'
'This drop of blood, to give an analogy, is perhaps like a small portion of my future self winning the lottery.'
'Just consider it a pleasant surprise. Who cares if I actually win the lottery later? That's not something I can control.'
Think of this.
Lin Ye patted his sleeves and breathed a sigh of relief.
Neither of these possibilities actually existed, which made him feel relaxed.
It is only because the level reached is too high that these potential properties are disturbed, giving this drop of blood some time-related attributes.
[Blood of the Immortal Emperor: 0/100000]
When the experience bar reaches a multiple of 100000, a door to another timeline will open.
When the experience bar is a multiple of 0 or 1000, you can make another Daoist partner appear on the timeline for one day. You cannot choose the same partner consecutively.
'Being able to see them... Now that I think about it, is it because of the blood of the Immortal Emperor that I look the same in every life? It saves me a lot of explanation!' Lin Ye's eyes suddenly widened.
next second.
Lin Ye immediately teleported home.
Shed the curse of the wilderness.
I hid in the bedroom.
Lin Ye calmed her breathing, feeling dizzy and overjoyed.
"I'm rich! If Master suppresses his cultivation level and we cultivate together, one time will be equivalent to a hundred times with others! Master's wife, I miss you so much! And... I finally have a chance to get revenge on that person..."
Chapter 88 Night Battle Against a Nascent Soul Stage
Danhuo Avenue.
Lin Ye's bedroom.
He patted his cheek and touched the drop of blood with his consciousness. Its existence seemed illusory, rising and falling in the ebb and flow.
Lin Ye pondered: 'My future self doesn't truly exist; even with the utmost caution, it's still possible I'll die halfway through, and then he'll be gone.'
'I was the same in the past, because if I never died, the possibility of continuing the cycle of reincarnation would be extinguished.'
Schrödinger's imperial bloodline did not seem to grant him any significant power.
But it is true that this drop of blood possesses the property of time and space, and can break through the river of time.
Lin Ye couldn't help but recall some past events.
My master in my previous life did not use a secular name; his Taoist name was Xuanlingzi.
She was a Nascent Soul stage cultivator and was of great help to Lin Ye.
Since it was said that she could be brought to this era.
