Chapter 951: Direction of Development

Until the end, it was impossible to identify which of the dozen or so mortals was the real inner demon.

The inner demon was still eliminated. With Wei Yuan's tacit approval, the immortal plants urged the array to annihilate all the mortals in the array. Wei Yuan suddenly felt his spiritual sense clear, as if a considerable burden had been removed. It proved that the inner demon was indeed among these people.

But this also proved that the inner demon was constantly evolving, and right in front of Wei Yuan, the range was narrowed to a dozen people, yet Wei Yuan still couldn't find where it was hiding.

On the other hand, Wei Yuan discovered that the immortal plants' attitude toward mortals had undergone subtle changes. In the past, the immortal plants would shout and kill at every turn, and their attitude toward mortals was like earth and stone, throwing them away as they pleased.

This time the range had been narrowed to only a dozen mortals. If it were in the past, they wouldn't have summoned Wei Yuan at all, and would have just annihilated them all. But now, the immortal plants were no longer willing to annihilate mortals at will; in their eyes, this seemed to be no different from slaughter.

Wei Yuan was thoughtful. Could it be that these mortals in the Human World Renjian Yanhuo were already transforming into sentient beings, rather than creations of the Mind-Reflection World like phantoms?

This might be a sign that the Human World Renjian Yanhuo was slowly advancing.

Wei Yuan had been thinking about what would be different after the Human World Renjian Yanhuo advanced to the Master Yu Jing. Normally, as a Dharma Form, it was already equivalent to a complete Mind-Reflection World. And after the Master Yu Jing, would there just be a few more Cave Heavens?

But now Wei Yuan had seen a trend, that is, the sentient beings in the Human World Renjian Yanhuo were slowly turning from virtual to real, and maybe there would be karma and causality in the future. Coupled with the two "Other Shore" Cave Heavens with special attributes, Yellow Springs and Pure Land, Wei Yuan felt as if he were watching a complete world slowly growing and maturing.

The inner demon tribulation was not over yet, and he didn't know when it would end. But the Human World Renjian Yanhuo had indeed begun to transform, and Wei Yuan was already on the way to ascending to the Master Yu Jing. It was just that the Human World Renjian Yanhuo was too huge; the terrifying true body of the Melting Dragon in the past could only occupy a small part of the sea in the Human World Renjian Yanhuo.

Such a huge Mind-Reflection World must take a long time to transform, but once the transformation is successful, it might be an unprecedented grand sight.

After figuring this out, Wei Yuan was no longer in a hurry and prepared to continue consuming with the inner demon. Then he began to ponder the handling of the fourth Cave Heaven.

The more Cave Heavens there are, the faster the speed of absorbing heaven and earth origin energy, and the faster the Human World Renjian Yanhuo will grow. But the price is that the more Cave Heavens there are, the more unstable the entire system will be. After exceeding a certain critical point, it might cause the collapse of the entire Mind-Reflection World.

Regarding the choice of the fourth Cave Heaven, Wei Yuan was in a dilemma. For a while, he couldn't decide whether to place a killing-type supreme treasure to sacrifice breathing efficiency in exchange for immediate combat power, or to choose a life-type supreme treasure to greatly improve the breathing capacity of the entire Human World Renjian Yanhuo.

This was a choice between two development paths, so Wei Yuan put both plans into the Human World Renjian Yanhuo, preparing to seek the opinions of the "Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix."

After dealing with the internal affairs, Wei Yuan rushed to the secret realm again. At this time, two flying boats were parked outside the secret realm, and a large-scale camp had been established, with hundreds of cultivators busy here.

Seeing Wei Yuan arrive, Yu Zhizhuo led him to the teleportation array. At this time, dozens of cultivators were busy around the teleportation array, carefully measuring the array and replacing some array parts.

Yu Zhizhuo said, "It has been confirmed that this array has a history of more than 100,000 years, but the specific era is unknown. This secret realm itself doesn't look big, but it is actually in a different heaven and earth from this realm, and the two ends span a distance of hundreds of thousands of miles in this realm. This teleportation array is the exit of the secret realm; it is actually only responsible for the distance from the secret realm to this realm, which is not far, and the burden is not heavy."

"So that's how it is." Wei Yuan also had common sense about arrays and knew that in this way, the teleportation array could bear the entry and exit of a relatively large number of personnel and materials. Although there would be a certain consumption, it was only a fraction of a long-distance teleportation array.

Yu Zhizhuo added, "This array was originally driven by spirit stones, which is a common means of energy supply for magic arrays in ancient times. But most spirit stones are natural mineral deposits, and they are used up a little bit, and the purity of the grade itself is not stable, so using them directly is actually very inconvenient." ===== CHAPTER 952 =====
