Chapter 1049: Sitting and discussing the Dao, Demon Lord inheritance

In the vast ocean, wind and waves arose.

Between the mountains, the earth dragons rolled.

A pure contest of divine sense actually caused such power.

Suddenly, a mermaid figure leaped out of the sea, singing a graceful song, smoothing out the waves.

Among the mountains, there were also phantoms of towering strong men appearing, suppressing the balance here.

Luo Chen glanced at those two figures, feeling somewhat surprised in his heart.

And opposite him, Li Canghai was even more astonished.

Divine sense competition, even if it is just a contest and not a life-and-death battle, is often extremely dangerous and cannot tolerate the slightest negligence.

This Luo Chen actually still had the energy to pay attention to other things.

"Fellow Daoist's divine sense is powerful, why don't we stop here!"

"Hmm."

The two tacitly withdrew their divine senses at the same time, causing no damage.

Li Canghai drank a mouthful of spiritual wine, and his complexion finally eased.

He looked at Luo Chen and couldn't help but praise: "No wonder Fellow Daoist has murderous intent, so you are carrying sharp weapons! This old man has never seen or heard of someone who has just entered Nascent Soul being able to achieve such a stable Primordial Spirit like a mountain, with no feeling of emptiness in the realm; I don't know how Fellow Daoist achieved it."

Luo Chen smiled without saying a word.

He was indeed very different from normal Nascent Soul cultivators.

Its essence lay in his terrifyingly abnormal divine soul foundation, and the fact that he had mastered a full three types of Law true intents while in the Golden Core stage.

Nascent Soul, for him, was just a matter of course.

Especially when he broke through the realm, he also took a Fifth Tier Soul-Oscillating Pill, washing away the distracting thoughts in his Primordial Spirit completely.

Therefore, he dared to go out and roam just after becoming Nascent Soul.

You must know that given Luo Chen's personality, he never breaks through to a new realm without stabilizing for a long time before venturing out, let alone engaging in combat with others.

After witnessing the power of Luo Chen's Primordial Spirit, Li Canghai no longer doubted his strength.

After all, the person before them is a monstrous existence who, while still at the Nascent Soul stage, had already defied the heavens to slay a Soul Transformation powerhouse.

He said solemnly: "Those two ancient demons, their realms are only slightly higher than ours, and they are still in the Initial Stage of Nascent Soul. Li does not know how their combat ability is, but I imagine it is not bad; after all, great demons at this level often have mastered innate Divine Abilities, and they may not be much worse than the Meng Shentong techniques developed by our human cultivators."

Luo Chen asked: "Are there any handy sharp weapons?"

Li Canghai replied: "The demon race is not good at alchemy or artifact refining, often refining magic treasures with the unique parts of their physical bodies, or they may have the might of a Spirit Treasure, but not the reality of a Spirit Treasure. If Fellow Daoist carries a Spirit Treasure, you should not fear them."

Luo Chen recalled the greedy eyes of those two ancient demons toward his Yuan Tu Sword and Bone-Burial Umbrella when the Battle of Heaven and Earth ended, and could guess that they might not have real Spirit Treasures in their hands.

At the very least, Li Canghai did not show such greedy eyes.

Luo Chen also glanced at this world, feeling quite strange.

Li Canghai continued: "The Northern Li Great Sage lives on Hanging Knife Peak, and the Sea Emperor Whale's lair is in the Sea Emperor Palace; if you are looking for them, you can go to these two places……"

Li Canghai hesitated for a while, but still sighed: "Actually, there is no need for fighting and killing; it is easy to decide the winner at our realm, but if you want to decide life and death, the price is very high."

Luo Chen snorted coldly, "They always have to give an explanation for offending me that day."

Li Canghai was speechless.

The situation that day, if they had changed places, he would also feel angry.

If the response was slightly wrong, Luo Chen might have already fallen outside Heaven and Earth Island.

"Fine." Li Canghai sighed for a long time, "You, who have just become Nascent Soul, are always much more convenient to act than us."

Luo Chen's eyes flashed, "What do you mean by that?"

Li Canghai asked back, "After Fellow Daoist became Nascent Soul, do you have any special feelings?"

Luo Chen's eyebrows furrowed, speaking the truth: "Not free! It's as if there is a shackle on my body, and the feeling this world gives me is also too narrow."

"That's right." Li Canghai nodded, then explained: "The peak of cultivation in this world, apart from Desolate Beasts born of heaven and earth, is the Nascent Soul realm. Once you enter Nascent Soul, you have the shackles of heaven and earth on you, limiting us from fully exerting our abilities; this is also the origin of the rumor that Nascent Soul cultivators cannot easily act."

Luo Chen had doubts in his heart, "Then how should the frequent battles of Nascent Soul great powers over these five hundred years be explained?"

Li Canghai sneered, "It's nothing more than breaking the shackles and placing oneself in a dangerous situation."

In his subsequent explanation, Luo Chen finally understood what the so-called "shackles" meant.

After a cultivator achieves the Nascent Soul realm, their own magic power, under the blessing of the Primordial Spirit, can use the small to pry the large, controlling the Heaven and Earth Origin Qi.

Especially those who have comprehended the true intent of Laws can control more Heaven and Earth Origin Qi.

From this point of view, Nascent Soul cultivators can almost be counted as agents of the Dao authority of a world!

But controlling Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, conversely, can also be seen as being controlled by Heaven and Earth Origin Qi.

The shackles are formed at this time.

The earlier one achieves Nascent Soul, the longer one stays in the Mountain Sea Realm, the heavier this shackle becomes.

Once one fights with full strength without restraint, the shackles will break, and this world's assimilation of Nascent Soul cultivators will increase in intensity.

At that time, let alone going further, even ascending to the Upper Realm is a delusional thought.

Just like the relationship between children and parents, the more children take from their parents, the less they can grow, and later when they want to leave home to roam, their parents will not give support.

This analogy might be biased, but it roughly means that.

"But I observe the Nascent Soul great powers of the Heavenly Origin Dao Sect, and this situation does not exist?"

"Sacred Land cultivators are different from us; they do not seek to ascend to the Immortal Realm, they only treat the Mountain Sea Realm as a cradle to grab resources and absorb spiritual opportunities. Even if they cannot ascend in the end, they can also fly to…… the Profound Realm with the help of the sect passage."

A flash of light appeared in Luo Chen's eyes, "So Fellow Daoist also knows about the Profound Realm!"

Li Canghai laughed, "That place is not a secret to us. In the array inheritance of the Refining Song Tianmo Lord, there are many descriptions of the customs of the Profound Realm."

After mentioning the four words "Refining Song Tianmo Lord", the atmosphere between the two had a strange change.

Both of them, in fact, could be considered disciples of the Demon Lord's inheritance.

One obtained the Alchemy inheritance, one obtained the Array inheritance.

Otherwise, how could a loose cultivator, a Northern Sea cultivator without much background, break through to the Nascent Soul realm?

From this aspect, Luo Chen still had to call Li Canghai "Senior Brother".

Since the topic had reached here, Luo Chen was not coy, entering directly into one of the purposes of coming here today.

"I wonder how much Fellow Daoist knows about the Demon-Falling Land in the Sinking Sea?"

Li Canghai looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, "You have also entered it, why ask me?"

Luo Chen said calmly: "When Luo entered back then, I was only in the Golden Core realm, not having obtained the Dao, not knowing the height of heaven and earth, how could I see the full picture of the Demon Lord's falling place?"

Li Canghai was startled for a moment.

Only then did he remember that Luo Chen, whom he had always treated equally, was actually only a small Golden Core cultivator three hundred years ago.

Thinking this way, he was even more amazed at Luo Chen's outstanding talent.

Golden Core in a hundred years, Nascent Soul in two hundred years, and now less than five hundred years old, yet already Nascent Soul.

The length of his remaining lifespan is truly enviable.

Shaking his head, Li Canghai squeezed out a bitter smile, "When Li entered back then, I was only in the Middle Nascent Soul stage, and the Demon Lord's old place I saw was only the tip of the iceberg."

Subsequently, he talked about the past events like a successful person recalling the hard years of the past.

"The Sinking Sea is known as a thousand-year birth, but in reality, it is just a general term; specifically, it should be one thousand five hundred years."

"In one thousand five hundred years, the Demon-Falling Land has opened four times in total, and the fifth time, according to the days, should be soon. However, the Spirit-Gathering Array of the Sinking Sea was destroyed by demon race powerhouses, and I don't know if the fifth time will open as scheduled."

"When it opened for the first time, Li had not yet been born, and only heard some intelligence. At that time, it was too strange, and the situation of the Sinking Sea was unclear, so very few people went in to explore."

"When it opened for the second time, Northern Sea cultivators already had a lot of understanding of that place, and a batch of people with good Dao practice went in. Not many people returned, but each had gains, making people jealous."

"Therefore, when it opened for the third time, the number of people who went in was the largest in history! Li also entered the Demon-Falling Land that time."

"That time, the Yuan Mo Sect organized a huge number of people, led by the Blood Sea Old Ancestor, supplemented by twelve Nascent Soul elders of the Demon Sect, and the number of Golden Core cultivators was over ten thousand. The lineup was so magnificent that it was shocking. Apart from that, among the Northern Sea human cultivators, besides this old man, there were also some famous powerhouses. The demon path giant Hating Heaven Old Monster, the Great Cultivator Wei Changkong, the loose cultivator Feng Ling Hermit. The demon race side was also not to be outdone, Bai Xinweng, Coral Master, Great Strength Savage Demon Jiao, etc."

"But the exploration result that time shocked the Northern Sea!"

Li Canghai, with lingering fear, stated the fate of most people one by one.

Just the initial test of the Li Wang Heaven caused a large number of low-level cultivators who followed to be lost in it.

Regarding this, Luo Chen also had a deep memory.

If not for his firm Dao heart and the rich experience he gained from frequently encountering mental tribulations and obsessions during his Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment days, he likely would have found it very difficult to pass the illusion trial of the Liwang Heaven.

Then there was the Five Elements Heaven, rich in resources; for the sake of rich resources, a group of powerhouses launched fierce battles within the Five Elements Heaven.

The demon race powerhouse Coral Master was defeated by the Feng Ling Hermit, and then swallowed by exotic beasts. Wei Changkong and Bai Xinweng had a fight, both suffering injuries. That demon path giant Hating Heaven Old Monster even killed three Yuan Mo Sect elders alone, and was killed by the Blood Sea Old Ancestor in anger……

In the final inheritance place of Ming Zhaotian, the injured Wei Changkong and Bai Xinweng both fell. That loose cultivator Feng Ling Hermit was even more unlucky; before entering Ming Zhaotian, he was sneak-attacked in hatred by the Great Strength Savage Demon Jiao who liked the Coral Master, and fell into the Falling Demon Abyss. Although I don't know how the Feng Ling Hermit escaped the Falling Demon Abyss later, the Feng Ling Hermit who came out was crazy, and became one of the three great loose cultivators—the Crazy Loose Cultivator, sometimes sober, sometimes crazy.

And among these people, the biggest thing was that the Blood Sea Old Ancestor fell inside Ming Zhaotian!

Because of his fall, the demon race, which was already restless, raised thoughts, thus launching a great war to destroy the Yuan Mo Sect.

It was also because of this matter, coupled with the tragic losses that time, that the enthusiasm of Northern Sea high-level cultivators was not so strong when the Demon-Falling Land opened for the fourth time.

Everyone knew that it was extremely dangerous inside, and even Great Cultivators and Nascent Soul great powers could easily fall into it, so who would dare to take the risk?

If it weren't for those whose lifespan was approaching, or those with schemes, as well as low-level cultivators fighting for their lives to break through realms, the number of cultivators entering the Demon-Falling Land for the fourth time would only be fewer.

After listening to Li Canghai's reminiscence of the past, Luo Chen couldn't help but click his tongue secretly.

He originally thought that the lineup when he entered the Demon-Falling Land three hundred years ago was luxurious enough, gathering the Nascent Soul powerhouses of the four major hegemon forces of the Northern Sea at that time, plus a group of demon race powerhouses.

But he didn't expect that six hundred years ago it was even more terrifying.

Numerous Nascent Souls, Great Cultivators and Great Demon Emperors were endless, and even a Nascent Soul great power entered.

"In the end, Fellow Daoist Li was still a step higher, obtaining benefits under the siege of wolves!" Luo Chen sighed endlessly, his language also carrying a bit of respect.

Li Canghai shook his head, "How could Li be a step higher, it was just that I was cautious and careful, trying my best to avoid fighting with others, and maintained a sufficiently good state to enter Ming Zhaotian. And finally, I luckily passed the Array Realm assessment and obtained the Demon Lord's Array Dao inheritance."

Luo Chen understood, and did not refute.

Who among those who can cultivate to a high realm is not a cautious and careful person?

But in the end, it was Li Canghai who obtained the inheritance, which shows that he must have had something extraordinary.

However, Luo Chen thought about it, Li Canghai's cautiousness was indeed beyond ordinary people.

He remembered that Li Canghai achieved the Nascent Soul realm four hundred years ago.

That is to say, he entered the Demon-Falling Land six hundred years ago and obtained the inheritance. After coming out, he didn't make a sound, and cultivated in seclusion for a full two hundred years, successfully breaking through to Nascent Soul before he began to show his name.

This is much more cautious than himself!

Moreover, although Li Canghai later organized the Canghai Righteous Alliance, he basically didn't manage things, just using this force to specifically collect cultivation resources for himself.

When the demon army broke out of the Night Demon Heaven, he did not stand out.

After the Heavenly Origin Dao Sect entered the Northern Sea, he took advantage of the situation and defected.

Even eighty years ago, when he and himself joined hands to break into Heaven and Earth Island, after seeing the signs of the Profound Realm True Monarch descending, he was also the first to run away without hesitation.

Being so cautious and careful, and having a heart toward the Dao, if he doesn't reach Nascent Soul, who should reach Nascent Soul?

Beside his ears came Li Canghai's sigh of regret.

"Although I luckily obtained the Demon Lord's Array Dao inheritance, there was no inheritance Spirit Treasure in the Array Palace. After Li came out, I organized forces, collected resources, and spent immense mental effort, only then did I refine a Spirit Treasure that met my wishes according to the method recorded in the Demon Lord's inheritance."

"Is this the Mountain Sea Seal?" Luo Chen looked around, his eyes carrying a bit of amazement.

Li Canghai smiled proudly, "Exactly! Let Fellow Daoist know, this seal contains famous mountains and vast seas, forming a cave heaven and blessed land. Not only can it be carried with you for cultivation, but it also combines offense and defense, and is no weaker than those famous Spirit Treasures."

Luo Chen complimented: "Indeed, Luo has never seen a Spirit Treasure with two artifact spirits."

That mermaid was the Sea Spirit, and that giant suppressing the mountains was the Mountain Spirit; Luo Chen had long discovered these two non-human existences.

Facing Luo Chen's compliment, Li Canghai was embarrassed for a moment.

"There is a slight trick in it, which makes Fellow Daoist Luo laugh."

Seeing Luo Chen's confusion, Li Canghai explained briefly.

It is extremely difficult for magic treasures to conceive intelligence, often requiring a long time of nourishment, and the material itself must be excellent.

Li Canghai, according to the principle of arrays, derived the saying that heaven and earth have spirits, and mountains and seas also have spirits, so he took a trick to condense the two artifact spirits of the Mountain Spirit and Sea Spirit.

Speaking of this, he was quite envious, and asked with a bit of probing nature: "Fellow Daoist passed the Pill Realm assessment, you should have obtained the inheritance and Spirit Treasure of the Pill Palace, right?"

Luo Chen said calmly: "Luo has obtained the Alchemy inheritance, but the Spirit Treasure…… is not destined for me."

Luo Chen briefly mentioned the self-destruction of the Refining Heaven Cauldron, which made Li Canghai quite regretful.

He and Luo Chen had become fellow sufferers, obtaining inheritance but not Spirit Treasure.

In the sigh, he saw Luo Chen's topic suddenly turn.

"Since you have entered the Demon-Falling Land, you naturally know that the richness of the opportunities hidden within far exceeds the outside world, haven't you thought about entering again?" ===== CHAPTER 1050 =====
