Chapter 160 The Current Status of the Clone, First Stage of Immortal Gu Formation
"Canaan Academy, an ancient academy located in the center of the continent. For thousands of years, every top expert who has emerged from here has been a renowned figure on the continent, a figure whose fame resounds throughout the land."
"The most terrifying thing about an academy is not how strong its teaching staff is, but the thousands of powerful individuals who have graduated from it. If Canaan Academy were to face a crisis of destruction and summon all the students who graduated from the academy back, it would be unimaginable how terrifying that force would be."
"Although there are countless academies on the continent, the reputation of Canaan Academy has never been surpassed. This shows just how rich the foundation of this academy, which is surrounded by ancient aura, truly is."
Xu Qi'an looked at the Little Fairy Doctor beside him and explained to her with a smile, "One of the reasons why Canaan Academy is able to do this is because the academy has a Heavenly Flame Refining Tower."
"This Qi Refining Tower was built using a different kind of fire as its source. It is of great help to the students' cultivation."
Little Fairy Doctor nodded, seemingly understanding, "Young Master Xu, are you eyeing that strange flame?"
"Given our qualifications, are we qualified to enter Canaan Academy?"
Xu Qi'an nodded confidently, "Of course."
Since he adopted the Burning Technique as his cultivation method, he immediately refined the beast fire of the Purple-Gold Winged Lion King, barely raising the level of the Burning Technique.
His own fighting spirit cultivation also increased rapidly under the super-powerful cheat code of the power of time.
Among the known strange flames, only the Fallen Heart Flame and the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame are relatively easy to deal with.
He chose to come to Canaan College first in order to attract talented people.
There are still one or two years before Xiao Yan obtains the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame, so he naturally has no rush.
Just as he was about to speak again, Ye Ming's voice suddenly rang in his mind.
"Stir up the situation on the Dou Qi Continent, collect living souls, the more the better."
Just as Xu Qi'an was puzzled, along with the voice came some memories and images transmitted by Ye Ming.
As he continued walking forward with Little Fairy Doctor, still smiling, he also diverted his attention to receive the information in his mind.
The information flashed, and he understood everything about the conversation between Lin Dong and Ye Ming, as well as the cause and effect of refining the Human-like Immortal Gu.
When he learned the whole story, his expression remained unchanged, but he said to Little Fairy Doctor beside him, "Let's take another route and go through the Black Corner Region."
"There's a mixed bag of people there; you should be able to find the medicinal herbs you need."
Without the slightest hesitation, Little Fairy Doctor nodded and agreed.
Now that Xu Qi'an has time control over her body, her Calamity Poison Body is under effective control, and there is no need to worry about it erupting.
All she needs to do is improve her strength.
Canaan Academy is considered the most prestigious academy on the Dou Qi Continent, and it is divided into inner and outer academies.
Each year, students are recruited from all over the continents, but only the fifty most outstanding students from the outer academy can enter the inner academy.
The inner courtyard of Canaan Academy is where true geniuses gather.
At this moment, in the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy, on a majestic mountain peak, Long Aotian, dressed in black, stood with his hands behind his back.
Beside him sat a little girl, about twelve or thirteen years old, dressed in white.
The little girl had long, light purple hair that reached her waist. Her cheeks were extremely fair and delicate, and she was very cute, like a porcelain doll. Her big, dark, bright eyes were looking up at Long Aotian.
"Brother Black Dragon, do you have any more pills? I'm hungry again."
Long Aotian lowered his head, smiled, patted her head, and took out a brocade pouch from his storage ring and handed it to her.
The little girl chuckled, took out pills from her brocade pouch, and poured them all into her mouth like candy beans.
As she swallowed her pills, she muttered, "The Grand Elder said I can only leave the academy when I grow up. I really want to go out and play with Brother Black Dragon."
"Brother Black Dragon, when will I grow up?"
Long Aotian smiled slightly, "In a little while, you'll grow up."
Just then, Ye Ming's voice rang in his mind.
"Find a way to incite a war between forces and collect living souls."
Accompanying the sound was a visual record of a memory.
Suddenly, Long Aotian's expression shifted, and he closed his eyes slightly to receive the information transmitted from Ye Ming's true form in his mind.
After learning the whole story, a black light flashed in Long Aotian's eyes.
After thinking for a moment, he patted Ziyan's head and said, "Ziyan, you stay here at the academy and be a good girl. I have some things to take care of."
After he finished speaking, a pair of black dragon wings covered in dragon patterns unfurled behind him. With a flap of the wings, he flew straight into the sky.
"Hmph, sneaking off to play again! I want to go too!"
Zi Yan muttered something, and a pair of illusory purple wings appeared behind her. With a slight flap, she quickly chased after Long Aotian.
Central Continent.
As the core of the entire Dou Qi Continent, it has one palace, one tower, two sects, three valleys, and four pavilions, which are the most powerful forces on the surface of the continent.
The Soul Hall, ranked first among them, is the most mysterious and feared organization on the entire continent.
Inside the Soul Palace branch hall, Ye Gucheng, who was drawing upon the intense evil power, also heard Ye Ming's voice in his mind.
"I do know how to pick my time, but this suits me just fine." He smiled slightly, and the purplish-black scale mark on his forehead flickered for a moment.
The Danta Elders' Council, the Ye family.
Just as Chen Ping'an was refining a batch of pills using the special Gu insect flames, Ye Ming's voice rang in his mind.
After receiving the information with his eyes closed, a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
"I'll take this opportunity to further my position."
……
Inside the blessed land of the fox spirit.
Ye Ming's deep, unfathomable eyes were fixed on the enormous, milky-white ball of light before him.
Five days have passed since Lin Dong's clone entered the Fox Fairy Blessed Land.
The first stage of his refining of the Immortal Gu was nearing completion.
"Little fox spirit, three portions of Soul-Stabilizing Sand, quick!"
"Yes, Master!"
With a wave of her hand, the little fox fairy accurately selected three portions of Soul-Stabilizing Sand from the dense array of Gu materials before her and presented them to Ye Ming.
Ye Ming waved his hand, and all the Soul-Stabilizing Sand fell into the milky white ball of light in front of him.
"Buzz!!"
A sound emanated from the milky-white ball of light, and then, under the watchful eyes of the group, it began to shrink rapidly.
Ye Ming's forehead was slightly damp with cold sweat. Years of deduction and refining had left him feeling somewhat weary, even with his profound spiritual foundation.
Even so, he did not slacken in the slightest, his fingers twitching slightly as he used his soul power to maintain the milky white ball of light.
Finally, the milky white ball of light in front of us compressed to the size of a fist, reaching its maximum.
A moment later, with a loud "bang," the entire milky-white ball of light exploded, and a pure white Gu worm flew out from within it.
This Gu worm was only the size of a palm, entirely white, and looked like a miniature rabbit. It emanated a strong aura of life and death, alternating in a cycle.
The moment Ye Ming saw the Gu worm appear, his heart burned with excitement.
The first stage of the Immortal Gu technique, "Humanity Remains the Same," is complete!
The current human, like the Immortal Gu, has completed the first step from mortal to immortal, becoming a pseudo-Immortal Gu.
This directly verifies that the Immortal Gu formula he deduced has been successful to this day.
He did not let his guard down, and continued to use his soul power to create a gentle nest, allowing the Gu worm to fall into it, and continued to nurture it with his soul to maintain its condition.
"Little fox fairy, go and wake Lin Dong up." Ye Ming smiled at the little fox fairy and spoke softly.
"Yes, Master!"
The little fox fairy hopped and skipped to the side of the Soul-Soothing Lake. Seeing Lin Dong, who was still fast asleep after drinking the Soul-Soothing Wine, a smile appeared on her rosy little face.
She landed beside Lin Dong, reached out her little hand, gently pinched Lin Dong's nose, and called out in a clear voice, "Master, wake up!!"
Lin Dong twitched his nose and opened his eyes, still half asleep.
Seeing the little fox spirit before him, he forced a smile and mumbled sleepily, "Little fox spirit, how long have I been asleep?"
"Your clone has been asleep for three days. Your master wants to see you."
Lin Dong nodded, stood up, shook his head, and completely shook off the last trace of confusion from his mind.
He sensed the growth of his spiritual foundation and was overjoyed. He immediately took to the air and flew away into the distance.
A few breaths later, Lin Dong arrived in front of Ye Ming.
Looking at the white Gu worm in front of Ye Ming, he understood that the first stage of the process had been successfully completed.
"Let me do it!"
Lin Dong nodded, and a surge of rich soul power flowed out, merging into Ye Ming's soul power.
They are of the same origin, and when their soul powers merged, there was no resistance whatsoever.
Soon, Lin Dong's soul power took control and began to nourish the Gu worms, just like before.
Ye Ming also took the opportunity to extract his soul power.
Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
He sensed the state of his immortal apertures and realized that there was still some time before the natural disaster arrived.
With a flash, he arrived directly in front of Lake Anhun.
The continuous deduction of the immortal Gu formula and the focused refining of Gu worms left him feeling mentally exhausted.
Although his soul power was undiminished, his mental fatigue could not be ignored. He was about to face the Heavenly Tribulation and dared not underestimate it.
"Little fox fairy, remember to wake me up at this time tomorrow."
After saying something to the little fox spirit, he took a sip of the calming wine and fell asleep immediately.
"Yes, Master!"
The little fox fairy smiled and responded, then went straight to Ye Ming's side, took out a fox fur coat, and covered him with it.
She then squatted down to the side, propped herself up with her little hand, and stared intently at Ye Ming with her bright, big eyes.
She pouted and murmured, "Although Master has many clone masters, this Master is still the best!"
A day passed in the blink of an eye, and the little fox fairy gently shook Ye Ming awake right on time.
"Phew~"
With a gentle exhale of white silk, Ye Ming felt his previous fatigue vanish instantly, and he was fully revitalized once again.
It must be said that the soul-soothing effect of the Soul-Soothing Lake is indeed extremely powerful.
After glancing at Lin Dong, who was nurturing Gu worms in the distance, Ye Ming sent a message to his clones.
"Stir up the situation on the Dou Qi Continent, collect living souls, the more the better."
In just six months, the clones, with their formidable strength, have already gained considerable influence within various organizations.
When these things come together, they can create a powerful spark.
Raising his left hand to examine the Reincarnation Watch, Ye Ming discovered that the number of alien races on it was more than a hundred fewer than initially displayed.
Besides the unfortunate souls who perished at the hands of the original characters on the Dou Qi Continent, there must have been quite a few alien races that were harvested by the human race.
However, Ye Ming could also deduce that the losses suffered by the human race were definitely more severe than those suffered by the alien race.
However, at this critical juncture, he had no time to concern himself with such things. He needed to overcome the tribulation within his immortal aperture first before considering anything else.
If we pursue the matter of the alien races and thoroughly stir up the waters of the Dou Qi Continent, there will always be some big fish that can't resist the temptation to surface.
Ye Ming opened the gate to the Fox Fairy Paradise and walked out slowly.
Looking at the exploding volcano and the shattered earth outside, he raised an eyebrow. "Lin Dong's clone, he's quite good at picking locations."
After experiencing Lin Dong's memories, Ye Ming looked around and said in a low voice, "The Monster Mountain Range? It's a good place."
The strongest magical beast in the mountains has already been dealt with by Lin Dong, and there are no more hidden experts in the entire Gama Empire.
At least here, one doesn't have to worry about being disturbed by external factors during the tribulation.
If any of the magical beasts in the Monster Mountain Range were to foolishly run into him during his tribulation, they would be like moths to a flame, courting certain death.
"I possess the Mighty True Martial Body. When I was undergoing the tribulation to ascend to immortality, the calamities were already terrifying. The current natural disaster is absolutely unimaginable."
This was Ye Ming's first time undergoing a heavenly tribulation, and he felt immense pressure.
If he hadn't been forced to, he wouldn't have wanted to undergo the tribulation so soon.
Although calamities occur in the Immortal Aperture every now and then, the Gu Immortal has many methods to delay their arrival.
With the refining of the Immortal Gu imminent, he couldn't spare any attention to delay the arrival of the calamity.
Fortunately, he had a clone to help him, giving him a chance to recover.
"Phew~"
Exhaling a breath of stale air, Ye Ming's body trembled slightly, and a mysterious change occurred in his immortal aperture.
"Immortal Aperture, descend!" Ye Ming's eyes flashed with light as he uttered a soft shout.
He seemed to hear a roar, and then his vision changed drastically. Upon closer inspection, he found himself inside his own power aperture.
Normally, the immortal aperture resides within the Gu Immortal's physical body. However, at this moment, the immortal aperture is located in the external world, instead enveloping his physical body within it.
Looking at the power-enhancing aperture before him, Ye Ming felt a surge of emotion.
Today, the area of the Immortal Aperture is vast, and its resources are far better than before.
That is why each tribulation is a huge gamble for the Gu Immortal.
If the tribulation is successfully overcome, the blessed land will suffer excessive losses, and the Gu Immortal's combat power will also be severely damaged.
If one fails to survive the calamity, then naturally one will die and one's spiritual essence will vanish, leaving nothing but nothingness.
Right now, countless Gu worms flew out from all the Immortal Apertures, gathering into patches of dark clouds and hovering behind him.
A hundred years have passed in the Power Immortal Aperture. After devouring Douluo Star and accepting its Soul Masters and Soul Beasts, and transforming it into the Gu Master system, it has now yielded results.
Within the entire Immortal Aperture, hundreds of millions of mortal Gu worms have already appeared.
Ye Ming is the god who controls all of this.
One chapter today, let's take a break and relax.
