Chapter 150: #150 - It is impossible to develop magic power through practice!

"It didn't explode?"

Wang Jixuan couldn't help but tilt his head, continuing to use his spiritual sense to watch the hydraulic press twenty meters away.

The D5 military region dared to broadcast live, so they must have done experiments beforehand to confirm that this kind of machine could crush the crystal cores.

It's just that now, a box of more than a hundred crystal cores are fixed in the fixed slots, and they are being squeezed at the same time…

Cracking sounds kept coming, and the crystal cores almost simultaneously showed cracks!

The misty white air spread outward!

Spiritual energy!

Wang Jixuan was not in a hurry to take action, this was just the beginning of today's [Great Crystal Core Crushing] event.

He carefully observed the situation after the crystal cores were squeezed and broken.

Releasing spiritual energy, constantly shattering…

It appeared!

Only ten centimeters long basic Blade Beast phantoms crawled out of the crystal core cracks.

They kept circling in the surrounding misty white air, as if they didn't see the human-shaped mechanical bodies standing around, only silently roaring.

Two Blade Beast phantoms suddenly surged towards Wang Jixuan's direction.

Today is different from the past.

The current Daoist Wang is far from the cultivation level he had when he first discovered the remnant souls of the Blade Beasts.

He didn't even need the Demon Suppression Talisman, his eyes burst out with divine light, and a light hum came from the tip of his nose. His spiritual sense turned into two small swords and swept forward, directly cutting down the two Blade Beast remnant souls.

The remaining hundreds of remnant souls continued to circle and roar in the misty white air.

'There is no linkage mechanism.'

'These remnant souls themselves have lost consciousness.'

'I previously overestimated these Blade Beast remnant souls. They should have been forcibly imprisoned by the crystal cores when their bodies died, and only have the instinct to seize and attack.'

Wang Jixuan thought so, and pressed the button on the side.

An order passed through Zhou Zhengde's hand and was transmitted to the ears of the frontline spirit energy users who were waiting in formation outside the venue.

Two telekinetic spirit energy users activated their amplification equipment and simultaneously emitted a piercing scream towards the area where the white air was located.

The Blade Beast remnant souls in the white air shattered instantly.

Wang Jixuan narrowed his eyes and smiled upon seeing this.

It really worked.

This scream was just a simple mental shock, but the frequency of the shock was amplified by the instrument, and the intensity could directly turn ordinary humans into vegetables. At this moment, it was also suitable to use it to shatter these Blade Beast remnant souls.

Only then did Wang Jixuan use his spiritual sense to wrap some spiritual energy and carefully experience it.

Hmm…

Although it's just medium-grade stuff, and some impurities are mixed in after entering the air, the advantage is that the quantity is large enough! And there is no resentment!

Wang Jixuan said to the headset: "Proceed according to the plan, the risk is not high, start working at the same time."

Zhou Zhengde immediately made a gesture to the side.

In the arena, more than a hundred mechanical bodies worked simultaneously, and fifteen hydraulic presses began to rotate continuously.

The cracking sound of shattering was endless.

Clusters of white air continued to spread, and the entire venue quickly became misty.

The autonomous mechanical bodies quickly replaced the wooden boxes, cleaned up the debris, and put these harmlessly treated debris into new boxes as resources to be sent to the Spirit Energy Capital later.

The spirit energy users on the edge of the venue, under the command of several officers, began to take turns stepping forward to emit piercing screams.

The spirit energy users' mental attack frequency was a bit insufficient, and the remnant souls surging in the white air gradually began to increase, and with the spread of the white air, these remnant souls also had a tendency to continuously spread towards the direction where the spirit energy users were located.

But it doesn't matter, the real soul-destroying main force has already appeared!

When the white air covered the equipment room where Wang Jixuan was located, a translucent strange python smoothly drilled into the spiritual energy ocean.

The strange python began to hunt the Blade Beast remnant souls!

It was like a gluttonous snake that never grew up, constantly swallowing the Blade Beast remnant souls wherever it passed. Its own ink-colored scales were constantly filled, and the details of its body continued to increase.

Wang Jixuan raised the corners of his mouth in a slight smile, and swept his sword fingers across his eyes, lighting up more than a dozen Soul Suppression Talismans just in case.

Spirit Gathering Array, open!

The edge of the arena was like a powerful vacuum cleaner, and the white air quickly surged towards this equipment room.

Is the formation opened too fiercely?

This kind of spirit gathering array is different from the spirit releasing array he had been using before.

Or rather, this is the real spirit gathering array.

It does not extract the spiritual power inside the crystal core, but consumes spirit energy and continuously absorbs the spiritual energy within a certain range, thereby driving the spiritual energy in a larger range to flow towards the cultivator.

Wang Jixuan quickly turned down the 'power' of the Spirit Gathering Array, trying not to let outsiders see the abnormality.

Then he put on a posture of holding the Yuan and guarding the one, and his Qi Sea gradually accelerated its rotation. Strands of spiritual energy, with his breathing, with the opening and closing of the pores all over his body, rapidly merged into his body.

At the entrance of the equipment room, Mudan was currently facing away from Wang Jixuan.

In order to prevent herself from falling into a mental contradiction and crashing, Mudan wisely did not turn on any scanning instruments or video recording equipment, and entered a simple command response mode.

'Mudan will work hard to protect the commander's little secret.'

In just three minutes, Wang Jixuan's body transmitted the sound of surging waves.

The white air covered the entire venue, and the spirit energy users also vaguely noticed that the spirit energy they had just consumed seemed to be replenished a little faster.

So, these spirit energy users worked even harder, and even showed joyful smiles one by one.

Two quarters of an hour passed.

More than ten thousand effective crystal cores had been crushed.

The white air surged out of the venue and spread to all parts of the headquarters. The chemical defense troops on the outer periphery had already been urgently dispatched, but they had not yet detected any harmfulness of this white air.

Those Blade Beast remnant souls could only move near the hydraulic press, and their density itself could not go up…

There was no other reason, a strange python was scurrying back and forth. It no longer opened its mouth, it only needed to pass through an area, and the Blade Beast remnant souls within a two-meter diameter would shatter instantly, and the points of fluorescent light produced after the shattering would converge towards it.

The scales all over the strange python had become ink black, and dragon patterns began to appear on its flat head. The antlers on its head had begun to transform towards antlers, and its size had become smaller, only about twenty centimeters long.

The Dragon Python Transformation was in progress!

It needed more soul power.

Especially the remnant souls of the basic Blade Beasts, which were not very powerful and were well preserved by the crystal cores!

The soul power devoured by the strange python, after being purified, was mostly fed back to Wang Jixuan.

At this moment, Wang Jixuan's cultivation was presenting a very strange state.

Orthodox cultivation, especially the main sect immortal technique of Wangxian Valley, the [Azure Ripple Art], emphasizes the simultaneous cultivation of the body, soul, spirit, essence, and Qi. Every few decades, it can send a batch of 'pentagonal' cultivators to the immortal cultivation world.

The disadvantage of this kind of cultivation technique that pursues balance is that the early progress is slightly slow, it is difficult to achieve quickly, and it is very picky about the aptitude of the disciples.

The advantage is that as long as the cultivator enters the door and cultivates steadily, without getting stuck in bottlenecks, there is hope to step into a higher Dao realm.

In fact, Wangxian Valley is also one of the few orthodox sects with the most senior experts in the immortal cultivation world, and it also gave birth to a fallen 'little genius' who practiced silently for one hundred and twenty years and then went to break through the Heavenly Tribulation.

But now, Wang Jixuan couldn't wait.

The Blade Beasts were fierce, and the Wang-level Blade Beast had already locked onto him once;

The spirit energy users were treacherous, and that brainless Mo Feng simply couldn't make good use of her own spirit energy, which had already made him quite棘手.

He had to take a risk once, otherwise it might be extremely difficult to protect himself later.

At this moment, he was actively breaking the balance of his own cultivation technique.

The soul and spirit began to carry out a surprise cultivation!

The remnant souls devoured by the dragon python could not be calculated.

Under the premise of steady and solid progress, the body and Qi were raised as much as possible, and all means were used to guide the spiritual power to wash the Dao bones all over his body.

At this time, there was no need to worry about whether the spiritual energy would be wasted.

Most of the spiritual energy here would be wasted!

Charge!

A fierce look flashed in Wang Jixuan's eyes, and a roar continuously came from his body. The large bones all over his body were already a light white jade color.

His body temperature continued to rise, but the moisture in his body was locked by mana. Strands of white air quickly drilled into his pores, and even small tornadoes appeared.

The early, middle, and late stages of the Gui Zhen realm are mainly determined according to the degree of bone forging;

He was now stepping towards the later stage step by step.

This high-intensity bone forging was naturally not very pleasant. It was now like dozens of spiritual energy hammers were hitting every bone of his, and every second was accompanied by severe pain.

"Humph!"

Wang Jixuan snorted in pain, and the skin all over his body was烫红色.

Mudan immediately opened her eyes and subconsciously wanted to rush over.

"No need to come over… Look outside…"

Wang Jixuan gritted his teeth and barely opened his mouth to speak, then took a deep breath of spiritual energy and continued to increase the intensity of bone forging.

Also at this time, the Dragon Python Devouring Heaven Art touched the 'barrier' of Wang Jixuan's current cultivation level, and the Yuan Soul had turned translucent.

The silver needles rose, the spiritual energy gathered, and pierced into the large acupoints!

The space between his eyebrows must not be spared!

Wang Jixuan almost screamed.

He seemed to be repeatedly jumping back and forth in front of the gate of death, but the situation he had previously envisioned had begun to appear.

A trace of golden light appeared inside the Yuan Soul.

That was the remaining spark of the Yuan Shen of the Mahayana stage! It was the flame brought by his wisp of remnant soul!

Very good!

That's how it is!

Who will be the first on the immortal road, even if there is no regret for a hundred deaths!

This Daoist will definitely defeat the Heavenly Tribulation, break through the immortal gate, and ascend to immortality in this life!

Wang Jixuan's Yuan Soul little person and body simultaneously raised their hands and topped up, and a shock wave mark surged around his body.

The dragon python let out bursts of loud roars, black clouds suddenly appeared in the white air, and lightning flashed in the black clouds.

Passed it!

The Yuan Soul was still improving!

Wang Jixuan dared not delay and continued to frantically absorb these spiritual energy and devour these remnant souls. This kind of opportunity was hard to come by!

In just half an hour!

Wang Jixuan's whole body began to ooze blood, and there was no longer the sound of breath rushing in his body, because every area of his body had been filled with spiritual energy.

At this moment, his bones were like jade, and he had already stepped into the late stage of the Gui Zhen realm. The Yuan Soul was crystal clear, and the Yuan Soul little person had a pentagram between his eyebrows.

He was really… unable to absorb anymore…

Wang Ji Xuan now wanted to get ruthless, but there was no way to instantly complete the improvement of his Dao Body. This indeed required gradual progress, strengthening the Dao Body little by little.

Outside, the massive giveaway event of shattered crystal cores was still in progress.

The Daoist sighed inwardly, feeling a sense of regret like entering a treasure mountain without bringing a box.

The Dragon Python Swallowing Heaven Art had entered a new stage. At this moment, what danced in the white Qi was no longer a strange python, but a flood dragon with wings on its back and sharp claws.

Its efficiency in preying on the remnant souls of those Blade Beasts had greatly increased. However, even if it sent the soul power of those Blade Beast remnant souls to Wang Ji Xuan's nascent soul, the nascent soul was already unable to swallow them.

This time, should he just leave it at that?

Wang Ji Xuan pondered for a moment. He wouldn't go so far as to use the Marrow Fiend Heaven Severing Art in conjunction with the Dragon Python Swallowing Heaven Art to forcibly increase the power of his nascent soul, just to increase his strength faster, would he?

Today, he had already violated the sect's cultivation principles…

Wang Ji Xuan suddenly raised his hand and swallowed a Great Blood Qi Pill, closing his eyes and concentrating. When he opened them again, two clusters of black flames had bloomed at the corners of his eyes!

The dragon python roared, and the spiritual energy suddenly began to rush towards this operating room at an accelerated rate. Wang Ji Xuan's originally stagnant cultivation actually began to surge upwards again.

'To use demonic arts for cultivation, this Daoist is simply insane.'

‘If I’m insane, then so be it! This Daoist and these great demons must have one side die first! Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Now that I’m here, I can’t have come in vain!'

‘Soul, come forth!’

The nascent soul left the body!

A beam of gold and black intertwined light遁entered the white Qi, and the nascent soul actually began to compete with its own Dragon Python Different Soul for rations!

… …

‘What kind of commotion is that?’

In front of the live broadcast station, Zhou Zhengde turned his head with some doubt, looking towards the place where the white Qi was filled in the back.

The two generals were still introducing the internal power structure of Lingneng City, popularizing the differences between the Ruling Faction and the Natural Faction, and incidentally pointing out that there was also a Beast God Faction secretly causing trouble, reflecting the inseparable connection between the Beast God Faction and the Brain-Devouring Worm incident.

Hundreds of Lingneng users fled Lingneng City as soon as the Brain-Devouring Worms were discovered. Didn't this clearly indicate that there was a problem?

Zhou Zhengde stared at the white Qi, the hand hidden under the table slightly pressing down.

The director of the live broadcast immediately switched the camera, focusing on the heads of the two officers, completely concealing the background of the venue that had not been shown before.

Zhou Zhengde took out a lighter that he had prepared in advance, and clicked it twice, deliberately being recorded.

In this way, even if others watched this replay analysis, they would come to the conclusion that 'Zhou Zhengde went to smoke, so he adjusted the camera.'

A dozen staff members and Zhou Zhengde were all attracted by the strange phenomenon in the depths of the white Qi at this moment, and they all stared blankly.

Zhou Zhengde got up and walked to the protective railing of the acrylic panel.

The white Qi suddenly surged outwards!

A flood dragon spread its wings and flew past, almost skimming past Zhou Zhengde's eyes. Remnant souls of Blade Beasts that ordinary people could not see were instantly devoured. This flood dragon quickly crashed back into the depths of the white Qi, no longer revealing itself.

The sound of thunder rumbled faintly.

The roar of the Blade Beast was almost tangible.

The space above suddenly twisted, and a vertical pupil popped out of thin air. From faint to thick, it was about to condense immediately.

That flood dragon appeared again!

It suddenly jumped out of the white Qi ocean and tore the vertical pupil apart with one claw, blasting out a shockwave!

This vertical pupil was defeated!

It was unknown why this vertical pupil came, but Zhou Zhengde saw with his own eyes that the vertical pupil was shattered by the flood dragon with one claw!

Zhou Zhengde's Adam's apple trembled, and he took out a red sign that he had prepared in advance and hurriedly waved it at the director of the live broadcast.

The director immediately interrupted the live broadcast, which had not released any effective information to the public, and stared at the front with a somewhat pale face.

Zhou Zhengde was a little confused at this moment.

Wang Ji Xuan, who should have been quietly taking advantage of the situation, now seemed to have entered some kind of berserk mode?

But Zhou Zhengde made a decisive decision.

“Grandpa, mobilize a thousand autonomous machines to surround the venue. Everyone here today must undergo memory erasure surgery.”

Everyone was a little dazed, but calmly began to execute the order.

Zhou Zhengde whispered: “All storage chips must be destroyed. Once the secrets are leaked, Grandpa will personally find you one by one.”

“Understood.”

“Don't worry, Team Zhou.”

The white mist had stopped churning. After the vertical pupil was shattered, the flood dragon and the illusory human figure seemed to have disappeared.

Inside the equipment room by the side of the field.

The black smoke in Wang Ji Xuan's eyes had dissipated, and he pondered the gaze he had just felt.

Was it because he had devoured too many remnant souls of Blade Beasts, thus triggering the gaze of a King-level Blade Beast?

Fortunately, taking advantage of the fact that the vertical pupil had not had time to fully locate him, he urgently broke the opponent, otherwise… it would probably be another King-level Blade Beast's raid.

Wang Ji Xuan looked at his nascent soul…

Good fellow, ordinary cultivators in the early stage of Core Formation would probably find it difficult to have such a powerful spiritual sense.

It was just that most of the nascent soul had been invaded by black Qi. Even if he spent a month or two purifying this black Qi, it would be worth it.

As for the Dao Body cultivation…

Bone Forging Great Accomplishment! Dao bones were like jade and then turned white again. Just this skull alone could be stored for a hundred years and still be crystal clear!

This was already the peak of the Gui Zhen realm, Great Perfection!

And it was a Great Perfection with an incomparably abundant Qi sea!

Uh, it was just the third realm of cultivation, and the Dao foundation was a bit weak, so it didn't seem like there was anything to celebrate.

This cultivation was equivalent to two months of hard work.

But there was still so much spiritual energy, it would be a pity not to use it. In fact, 80% of the spiritual power of the general-level crystal core in the Spirit Gathering Array was still there.

Wang Ji Xuan grabbed the box and used the formation base he had prepared in advance to set up the Spirit Refining and Material Enhancement Array, taking out the materials for forging the flying sword… With such abundant spiritual energy, if these materials couldn't nurture precious light, then he wouldn't need to refine weapons in the future.

Just as he was about to start the array, he suddenly thought of something and tilted his head to look at the peony flower standing guard obediently to the side.

It seemed that it was also essentially a large magic weapon. If he pulled it over to refine it…

Wang Ji Xuan leaned back, and a few smiles appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Might as well give it a try!

“Peony, come over and kneel down!”
