Chapter 303

After condensing for one day in the time cocoon.

Li Youyi's body was wrapped in spiritual flames, and he rushed out of the formation light gauze where the pagoda was located like lightning, heading straight for the pavilion building where Yao Qingxuan lived all year round, overturning the lampshade, taking out the Spirit Platform Fire Star Stone fragments inside, and collecting them into his Yintang Spirit Realm.

Then, with lightning speed, he ran back to the formation area where the pagoda was located and escaped into the blood mud space.

Condensing the third mental power star, one Spirit Platform Fire Star Stone fragment was not enough, so he could only take Yao Qingxuan's.

He was at the critical moment of condensing the mental power star and could not care about the consequences; he could only buy one from the Spirit Valley Hall afterwards and put it back.

"It seems the higher the realm, the more Spirit Platform Fire Star Stone fragments are needed to condense mental power stars. If I had known, I should have sold the few hundred-character artifacts on me and bought two more."

Returning to the Tang Valley Sea.

Li Youyi sat on the thirty-meter-long jade boat and, with the help of the second Spirit Platform Fire Star Stone fragment, continued to condense the third mental power star.

The Fusang Divine Tree light shadow behind him reflected the two real divine trees at the end of the horizon, like a seedling and an old tree, a child and a teacher.

The Tang Valley Sea was filled with gorgeous and scorching Xihe flowers, the environment was beautiful, and the floral fragrance was strange.

Above the flowers, the brilliance condensed into streams of light particles, surging toward Li Youyi's Yintang and the two Fusang Divine Tree light shadows, making his aura increasingly powerful, his whole body crystalline, like a pure immortal body.

"Goo!"

"Gurgle!"

As time passed, bubbles appeared on the sea surface, and white mist rose.

This is a sign that the Jin Wu is about to soar from the seabed!

If he did not leave in time, with Li Youyi's current cultivation realm, he would definitely not be able to withstand the heat wave of burning the heavens and boiling the seas.

His body did not move, quiet as an immortal mountain, his consciousness was introverted, his perception of the outside world was blurred, and he was at the critical moment of condensing the third mental power star.

The Fusang Divine Tree light shadow, more than ten feet high behind him, had its trunk become thick, its branches and leaves unfolded, and it kept growing taller and larger.

The divine tree light shadow breathed continuously.

The Jin Wu flames on the leaves became more solid, and both the temperature and brightness were increasing.

"Gurgle!"

The bubbles on the sea surface became even more huge.

The seabed seemed to be burning, emitting golden-red brilliance, turning the seawater into the color of magma.

The more it was this time, the brighter the spiritual light on Li Youyi's body, and his whole body was wrapped in flames.

"Boom!"

The Yintang Spirit Realm vibrated, and the third mental power star was successfully condensed.

A circle of golden-red brilliance ripples spread out from Li Youyi's body, diffusing to a mile away before gradually dissipating.

On the sea surface, with him as the center, circles of ripples and tides appeared.

This is the "one-mile world" that his mental power can reach!

If a martial Dao cultivator can cultivate the Dao Heart External Image to the level of "one-mile world," they can ascend to the "Sixty-Year Record" and become an elder of the Twin Rice Sect.

Of course, Li Youyi is still far from that level of martial Dao expert, and it can only be said that in terms of perception, he is already not inferior to them.

This is the advantage of a mental power master!

"Not good, the Jin Wu is about to fly out of the sea surface!"

Li Youyi put away the jade boat, turned into a humanoid fire light, rushed into the spatial barrier gate, and tumbled into the blood mud space.

"Boom—!"

Almost a moment later, golden-red brilliance and flames covered the entire Tang Valley Sea.

Heat waves and some flames poured in from the spatial barrier gate and landed on Li Youyi's body; his robe instantly turned into fly ash, leaving only the Blood Handprint Magic Armor.

His skin burned with pain, and his protective magic power and spiritual light did not block it.

Li Youyi endured the pain all over his body, stood up, draped an outer robe over himself, and looked at the Jin Wu soaring toward the firmament; he had no fear in his heart, but instead became excited, truly feeling his current strength.

At this distance, the heat of the Jin Wu gradually began to be unable to do anything to him.

He could barely resist it.

If he reached the Dao Seed Realm and improved his physical body a bit more, he felt that he could completely stand on the Tang Valley Sea and resist the impact of the heat wave.

Of course, this is because he and the true body of the Jin Wu were separated by thousands, or even tens of thousands of miles.

If he really got close to the Jin Wu flames, he would still be reduced to ashes.

"When my physical body is strong enough, and I put on the official robe of the Prefecture Governor, I will stay directly in the Tang Valley Sea. Borrowing the time when the Jin Wu soars and the Xihe flowers on the sea surface, absorbing its flames, my mental power stars will definitely grow rapidly."

Only then did Li Youyi finally calm down and observe the three mental power stars in his spirit realm.

Each of them was several times larger than the stars when he was a One-Star Mental Power Master, like three golden-red glass balls, operating according to some wonderful laws, with strong energy, scorching and dazzling.

"My mental power spiritual light, influenced by the Fusang Divine Tree and the Jin Wu, has a flame attribute. Even without using formations, runes, and other means, it contains destructive attack power and can completely contend with a Dao Seed Realm Third Heaven martial cultivator."

"For inferior Dao Seed Realm Third Heaven cultivators like Ye Nanfeng and Ye Beifeng, I should be able to fight two with one just by mental power now, at least I can fight to a draw."

Li Youyi had just broken through, and the three mental power stars still had a lot of room for improvement.

It's just that now there are no Star Day Pills, and wanting to quickly improve to the peak of a Three-Star Mental Power Master is not something that can be done in a short time. He needs to spend a lot of time accumulating bit by bit like other mental power masters.

Unless he finds Chan Hai Guan Wu to refine pills again.

Li Youyi could also try to refine them himself; he had watched Chan Hai Guan Wu refine Star Day Pills and knew the pill formula and what materials were needed.

It's just that the materials for refining Star Day Pills are too expensive.

Chan Hai Guan Wu refined twenty-nine pills, which cost more than a million Gushing Spring coins.

With Li Youyi's mental power attainment and pill Dao attainment, having just qualified to refine pills, if he starts by refining high-grade magic pills, one can imagine how low the finished product rate will be, and the cost will be unimaginably high.

"With the Fusang Divine Tree, the Fusang Divine Tree meditation method, and the time cocoon, my accumulation speed is much faster than other Three-Star Mental Power Masters."

"Breaking through the realm is the difficult point."

"The threshold of a Four-Star Mental Power Master is a big hurdle, not so easy to break through. Right now, I have to find a way to make more money and buy more Spirit Platform Fire Star Stone fragments and materials for refining Star Day Pills."

"Yang Qingxi knew that Wang Shu was not easy to provoke, yet she still came to muddy these waters. It seems that the Fourth Divine Son must possess something extraordinary that makes her very tempted."

Li Youyi decided that after rescuing Qi Xiao and Tuoba Butuo, he would focus his cultivation on the martial Dao, complete the Seventh Sea as soon as possible, and complete the planting of the Dao.

Thinking of this, he took out the Dao fruit whose magic power had not yet been fully released and the newly purchased spring liquid.

Expanding the Seventh Sea to thirty thousand square units, the magic power in the Dao fruit was completely exhausted.

Next, he was completely immersed in refining magic power and consolidating the three mental power stars.

The six little ones, having swallowed dragon seeds, Xihe flowers, and Heavenly Origin Ganoderma, had been lying on the ground, their bodies wrapped in flames, occasionally emitting low chirps, very sharp, capable of piercing gold and cracking stone.

Such chirps did not sound like those emitted by moths or butterflies, but more like the calls of luan birds and phoenixes.

The Great Phoenix flew to Li Youyi's shoulder and said something urgently in his ear.

"You said their transformation had a problem?" Li Youyi's expression was solemn.

The Great Phoenix nodded, telling Li Youyi that the six little ones had spent too much time transforming; almost three days had passed, and their aura was not getting stronger, but rather they were becoming less energetic, as if they were about to fall into a deep sleep.

When it transformed, such a situation had not occurred.

Li Youyi took it seriously, walked toward the six little ones, carefully probed the situation in their bodies, and used mental power to communicate with them.

"No major harm, but they are gradually falling into a deep sleep."

"Could it be because the resources they took were not enough, and they need to enter a deep sleep state to slowly complete the transformation process?"

Li Youyi had always been reading books related to insect rearing, and he already had a detailed understanding of the feeding, growth, transformation, deep sleep, and control of exotic insects.

After all, it was six insects impacting the Dao Seed Realm together, and half a stalk of Heavenly Origin Ganoderma divided among them was indeed not enough.

After thinking for a while, he took out the Dao fruit whose magic power had been released and placed it in front of the six little ones.

At first, the six little ones only took a bite here and there, but gradually, they all became energetic, flew up, and chased the Dao fruit like six moth insects playing soccer.

Before long, this essence of the Great Dao, which could only be cultivated by experts above the Seventh Heaven of the Dao Seed Realm, was gnawed and swallowed by them.

Li Youyi sighed softly; this Dao fruit was worth a million Gushing Spring coins and was the most valuable thing he could take out to sell.

Fortunately, after sharing the Dao fruit, the six little ones recovered their energy, and their physical transformation became intense.

On each of their bodies, dragon and phoenix phantoms appeared, with dragon roars in their bodies and phoenix chirps in their mouths.

The dragon roar originated from the dragon seeds and dragon bones.

The phoenix chirp was clearly the origin of their own bloodline.

Such a transformation process was too miraculous; no wonder Tang Wanzhou would suspect they were not at the Marquis level.

The fourth day after capturing Ye Nanfeng and Ye Beifeng.

Li Youyi walked out of the formation light gauze, along the blood lake, and arrived at the main hall of the Southern Clear Palace.

The injuries to the limbs of Ye Nanfeng, Ye Beifeng, and Zuo Sheng had improved. With their Dao Seed Realm cultivation, as long as their magic power was not sealed, even if their bones were broken, they could heal quickly.

The three of them had many new injuries on their bodies.

Among them, Ye Beifeng was the most miserable, his tongue having been cut off. The flesh and blood of the five fingers of his right hand had all been removed, turning into white bones.

The three looked at Yang Qingxi, who stood with her hands behind her back, with terrified and fearful eyes, feeling that "snake and scorpion beauty" was not enough to describe her; her methods were brilliant and ruthless.

Ye Nanfeng and Ye Beifeng were separated by her for interrogation; Ye Beifeng was directly cut off his tongue for lying, and the flesh and blood of his right hand were cut off piece by piece.

While Ye Nanfeng received the reward of "nursing the injuries of his hands and feet."

Since then, the three had told her everything they knew in response to her questioning, no longer daring to have any concealment or deception.

The three heretical sect Dao Seed Realm powerhouses, who were originally murderous and formidable figures, had been tamed by her.

Seeing Li Youyi appear, the eyes above Yang Qingxi's veil were full of displeasure: "Where have you been? I went in to look for you and called you, but I couldn't get any response. You have delayed too much time; if Wang Shu condenses the Dao Lotus, how can this battle be fought?"

"Now the whole sect knows about the competition between you and me against Wang Shu; if we lose, I will at most suffer some humiliation and lose face. And you, you will lose your life."

Li Youyi said: "If Wang Shu breaks through, he will definitely go to the Heavenly Principle Hall at the first opportunity to seek the order seal to break the formation and break into the Southern Clear Palace to save people. Since he hasn't come, it means he hasn't condensed the Dao Lotus yet. Eldest Miss Yang, haven't you broken through to the Third Heaven of the Dao Seed Realm?"

"How can breaking through be that easy?"

Yang Qingxi knew what Li Youyi was wary of, and the frost on her face melted, revealing a charming and moving smile: "Aren't you just wanting a famous teacher? I have already interrogated at least two major crimes of Wang Shu; Ye Nanfeng, you say it!"

Li Youyi had long noticed that the three Dao Seed Realm powerhouses in front of him seemed to have been subdued by Yang Qingxi.

Ye Nanfeng limped forward, saluted, and reported: "In order to obtain cultivation resources, Wang Shu has murdered seven disciples in the sect, just that I know of."

Ye Nanfeng spoke in great detail, including the identities and names of the seven divine sect disciples, where they were killed, and the reasons, all of which were complete.

It did not look like something compiled by Yang Qingxi under heavy punishment.

"Wang Shu's other crime is using his status as a Divine Son to swallow a large amount of the Divine Sect's wealth. He often goes out to perform missions, and the purpose lies in this."
