"This is a Floating Monster."
As if he had heard the question in my heart, the evil priest stared at the black object in his palm and softly said to me.
However, his expression was a bit sad, and his voice also seemed a bit bleak. After saying that, he became silent.
At this time, I naturally didn't have time to care about his expression. I stared at the so-called "Floating Monster" for a while, but I still couldn't understand it. I asked the evil priest again, "Even if the Floating Monster is small, since it is an ancient species, how can it continue to exist until now? Moreover, why are there so many of them?"
The bleak expression on the evil priest's face recovered a bit. He faintly smiled and didn't directly answer my question. Instead, he asked me to exhale.
I didn't understand what he meant, but I still followed his words and exhaled.
At this time, the weather had turned warm, but the Corpse Sect was always cold and gloomy all year round. When I gently exhaled, it turned into a clearly discernible white smoke.
The evil sacrificial spirit raised his index finger and gently circled the white smoke I had exhaled. The white smoke around us instantly dispersed, leaving only a small dot hovering in the air. It didn't disperse and looked very magical.
At this time, the evil priest opened his mouth and said, "The Floating Monsters are like this water vapor. They wander between heaven and earth and are everywhere.
As long as there is air in the world, there will be Floating Monsters hiding in it. "
After saying that, he stretched out his hand again. His thumb and index finger caught the small white smoke in the middle, and he slowly pinched it.
Along with his action, the small dot of white smoke became smaller and its color became denser. In the end, I seemed to hear a subtle sound. The small dot of white smoke disappeared and was replaced by a drop of water. It was a very small but crystal clear drop of water.
The evil priest's voice sounded again.
"This drop of water is like an ancient species of Floating Monster. In other words, if all the water vapor in this world is condensed to form a sea, then the sea is the Floating Monster.
The seawater is the Floating Monster, and the water vapor is also the Floating Monster.
If the seawater is scattered, it will just turn into water vapor. Do you understand now? "
I faintly understood in my heart. Although the evil priest was talking about the Floating Monster, it seemed to contain a very profound truth. I faintly grasped a trace of it, but when I thought about it, I couldn't understand it.
I nodded my head. At the very least, I understood the characteristics of Floater.
In the words of modern biology, this kind of creature was like a cell that could divide infinitely. When gathered together, it would be a prehistoric beast, but when separated, no one would be able to find it. It was really mysterious.
However, there was still something that I didn't understand, so I asked, "Although the Floating Wanderer has the ability to scatter between the heavens and earth, according to common sense, it's more powerful when it gathers together.
Why didn't the Floating Monsters fuse together like in the ancient times? "
The evil priest sighed, "the times have changed … the world has its own rules, no one can go against it, no one can escape from it, let alone a small floating monster."
I didn't know why he suddenly became lonely. I thought about the matter of breaking through the Heavenly Barrier of Dao Qi and quickly asked. "Since the Floating Monsters are everywhere in the world, their number must be endless. If we were to use them this time, I don't know how many we would need."
The evil sacrificial spirit shook his head, "For this cultivation, Xiang Liu is the main medicine, and Floater is the supplementary material. But as long as we have Floater, it doesn't matter how many."
Hearing what he said, I was overjoyed, and the last trace of worry disappeared. I hurriedly took out the bag with Xiang Liu and handed it to the evil sacrificial spirit.
To use Xiang Liu and Floater to break through the Heavenly Barrier of Dao Qi, I still needed the evil sacrificial spirit's help.
Unexpectedly, the evil sacrificial spirit didn't take the bag, but just said to me, "Release Xiang Liu."
Release it?
When Yan Nantian caught this Xiang Liu, I knew how cunning it was. Moreover, according to Yan Nantian, Xiang Liu was very good at escaping, so after I got it from him, I didn't even dare to open the bag to take a look.
I hesitantly looked at the evil sacrificial spirit, "This thing is very cunning, what if it escapes?"
The evil sacrificial spirit shook his head, "I know it's good at escaping, but it doesn't matter, just release it."
After hesitating for a moment, I still chose to believe the evil sacrificial spirit. I carefully untied the rope that was tied to the mouth of the bag, and gently opened the mouth of the bag.
Right at this moment, a black light flashed out of the bag at an extremely fast speed. Although I had been vigilant, I didn't have time to react. I could only watch the black light fly out of the bag.
However, something strange happened soon. Without anyone to stop it, the Xiang Liu didn't run far. Instead, it stopped and landed between me and the evil sacrificial spirit.
Last time, when Yan Nantian had caught this Xiang Liu, he had been too fast, so I couldn't see it clearly. This was the first time I saw Xiang Liu's real appearance. It looked like a small snake, around one meter long and as thick as a finger. The only difference was its head. Around its head, there were several bulging sarcomas of different sizes. There were eight of them.
Xiang Liu was also called Nine-headed Snake. I guessed that it had eight sarcomas and a real head.
Besides seeing Xiang Liu's appearance, I also understood why it didn't run away.
At this moment, Xiang Liu's head was facing the evil sacrificial spirit, looking at the Floating Monster in his palm.
At this moment, the evil sacrificial spirit finally explained, "Xiang Liu is greedy, and the Floating Monster is the thing that can attract it the most. You should sit cross-legged and adjust your breathing. After this Xiang Liu swallows the Floating Monster, it will help you break through."
I started to adjust my breathing, but my eyes were still fixed on Xiang Liu.
Last time, when Yan Nantian captured this Xiang Liu, he made use of its greed. Now, we are still making use of its greed … This Xiang Liu is a strange species in the Untainted Land. It can grow to a length of ten thousand meters in an instant, and its strength can be said to be terrifying. However, because of its greed, it was easily played by others.
The evil sacrificial spirit slightly turned his palm. The Xiang Liu was like a cat that smelled blood. It dashed toward the evil sacrificial spirit's palm like a lightning bolt. When it got close to the evil sacrificial spirit, it curled its tongue and directly sucked the Floating Monster in the evil sacrificial spirit's palm into its mouth, swallowing it.
What happened next was even stranger. As soon as the Floating Monster entered its stomach, the Xiang Liu's body fell from the sky. It seemed to have fainted, and the two eyes on its small head were closed.
The evil sacrificial spirit seemed to know that. He calmly picked up the Xiang Liu's body and handed it to me. He didn't explain but urged, "Hold the head with your left hand and send the Dao energy in your body. Hold the tail with your right hand and send the shaman energy in."
It should be the way to balance the two energies in the body. I hurried to follow his instructions. I grabbed the Xiang Liu's head and tail and sent the two energies into its body.
With my current cultivation base, the Dao energy and shaman energy in my body were terrifying, especially my shaman energy, which was at the consummate stage of Glorious Knowledge. I didn't dare to say that I could destroy the world, but if I used my full power, I could at least topple the mountains and overturn the seas.
Who knew that the Xiang Liu's body was extremely tough? No matter how much I sent the shaman energy and Dao energy in the veins of the sky into his body, there was no reaction.
Just as I was feeling bewildered, the Xiang Liu in my hands suddenly moved. His eyes didn't open, but his body slowly arched. Starting from the middle, he slowly coiled into a ball and pulled my hands closer to him.
When my hands touched each other, Xiang Liu's body suddenly emitted countless auras. The auras were a mix of shaman energy and Dao energy. They surged madly into my body.
I didn't even have the time to make a decision to accept the auras. The enormous auras forcefully broke through the acupoints in my body and entered the veins of the sky.
The two energies that entered the veins of the sky finally separated and occupied a space at the bottom of the veins of the sky. They gradually compressed and condensed. Very quickly, a source stone was formed in each of them.
After the first Shaman Qi Source Stone was produced, everything went smoothly. The second and third Shaman Qi Source Stones were produced one after another. Just like before, there were seven Shaman Qi Source Stones in the Heaven Vein. They formed a circle and slowly rotated.
On the other side, the speed at which the source stones were forming was slightly slower. However, after the first source stone was formed, I calmed down.
