Rumble!
In the deepest part of Flame Blaze Valley, a volcano once again erupted with a shocking rumble.
The molten flames were like brilliant fireworks, and from a distance, it was a beautiful sight.
Amidst the brilliant fireworks, a fiery red spirit beast carrying a young man soared into the sky. They looked extremely battered and exhausted. The man and the spirit beast couldn't withstand the powerful impact and were sent crashing into a cliff.
Bang bang!
One man and one beast were smashed into the stone wall by the inertia, leaving behind only two pits.
"Damn … damn it, my bones are about to fall apart!" Ling Xiao's entire body was embedded into the stone wall, and his appearance was indescribably wretched. If not for the Vajra Five Changes Art's defense, he would have lost his life.
He cursed, but his body didn't move. He immediately circulated the Vajra Five Changes Art to recover his body.
Whoosh!
The Fire Qilin was the first to rush out from the stone wall next to Ling Xiao. There was still blood at the corner of its mouth, and it had clearly suffered significant injuries.
"Boss, are you alright?" The Fire Qilin transmitted a message to Ling Xiao.
"I'm fine. Wait for a moment, I'll be fine after resting for a while," Ling Xiao said weakly.
Just now, the Natural Yin Wind Bead and the Blue Demon Fire Bead had been fighting at the belly of the mountain. Both of them were precious treasures of heaven and earth, and their energy was enormous. Just the aftermath of their battle had left them in such a sorry state. If it weren't for Lu Weng's warning, they would have suffered a direct impact and died without a grave.
Just as Ling Xiao was doing his best to recover from his injuries, the Fire Qilin's nervous voice rang out, "Bo … Boss!"
"What is it?" Ling Xiao asked.
"Those … those two beads are coming out!" As a divine beast, the Fire Qilin had broken through to the mid fourth level, and its intelligence was unlocked. It knew just how powerful the Natural Yin Wind Bead and the Blue Demon Fire Bead were. Now that it saw the two beads flying towards them, it couldn't help but become nervous.
"What!" Ling Xiao cried out in alarm and immediately used his profound energy to struggle free.
"Hiss!" Ling Xiao sucked in a breath of cold air as the wounds on his body were pulled open.
However, just as Ling Xiao was about to rush out of the pit, the two pearls instantly appeared in front of him.
Swoosh!
The two beads instantly sank into Ling Xiao's head.
"What … what is this?" Ling Xiao was stunned and couldn't help but pat his head as he muttered to himself.
"Boss, they … they're all inside your head!" The Flame Qilin immediately distanced itself from Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao was just about to say something when he suddenly felt a shocking pain in his head, as if his head was about to explode.
Ah!
Ling Xiao held his head and rolled down from the rock wall, letting out a frightening scream.
His head had doubled in size, and it looked like it could explode at any time. His handsome face was distorted.
The Flame Qilin watched from a distance and revealed a worried expression, "Boss won't die, right?"
Ling Xiao didn't know how long he had been rolling on the ground. In the end, he couldn't take it anymore and fainted. However, his head was still terrifyingly swollen, like a transforming monster. It was a disgusting sight.
Seeing that Ling Xiao had fainted, the Flame Qilin slowly walked to his side to protect him.
At this moment, an astonishing change had occurred in Ling Xiao's Sea of Consciousness.
As for why the two strange pearls had simultaneously entered Ling Xiao's Sea of Consciousness?
That was completely because the Innate Yin Wind Bead wasn't a match for the Blue Demon Fire Bead in the volcano.
After all, the volcano had always been the Blue Demon Fire Bead's territory. It was surrounded by a powerful fire spiritual energy field, and it had the home ground advantage. Furthermore, the Blue Demon Fire Bead had existed for a longer time than the Innate Yin Wind Bead, and the energy it contained was even more terrifying.
The Innate Yin Wind Bead knew that it wasn't a match for the Blue Demon Fire Bead, so it could only escape. Since it had already recognized Ling Xiao as its master, it naturally fled towards Ling Xiao and entered Ling Xiao's Sea of Consciousness.
As for the Blue Demon Fire Bead, it was natural enemies with the Innate Yin Wind Bead. If the enemy wanted to escape, the Blue Demon Fire Bead naturally wouldn't let it. Thus, it chased after it and entered Ling Xiao's Sea of Consciousness like the Innate Yin Wind Bead.
At this time, Ling Xiao's Sea of Consciousness had become another battlefield for the two pearls.
The two pearls, one Yin and one Yang, fought against each other in Ling Xiao's Sea of Consciousness. Ling Xiao's Sea of Consciousness was the first to bear the brunt of the attack. Fortunately, the Innate Yin Wind Bead had previously opened up a path for it, which prevented the two pearls from destroying his Sea of Consciousness.
If it had been any other ordinary person, the Sea of Consciousness would have been smashed to smithereens as soon as the two pearls entered.
Fortunately, Ling Xiao's Tenbin Talent was extraordinary, and in addition to the fact that he had been cultivating the Spirit Controlling Manual for over a year, his Sea of Consciousness had expanded several times its original size. That was how he was able to withstand the clash of the two pearls.
However, this round of torture was inevitable. If Ling Xiao couldn't withstand it, he would definitely become an idiot, or even explode to death.
However, if Ling Xiao only had the two pearls in his Sea of Consciousness, then naturally Ling Xiao would not be able to escape death.
Fortunately, Ling Xiao still had a small tree of unknown origin in his Sea of Consciousness.
As a Tree Spirit, Lu Weng naturally wouldn't leave Ling Xiao in the lurch. If Ling Xiao died, he really wouldn't have anywhere else to stay. Furthermore, he felt that Ling Xiao was very much in line with his requirements. Once Ling Xiao absorbed the Heaven and Earth Energy, it would be of great help to him.
"Damn it, why did these two pearls come here? This old man's nest is about to be destroyed by you two!" Lu Weng moved the small tree to a corner and cursed inwardly. After that, he muttered to himself, "No … I can't go on like this. If this little fellow dies, this old man won't be any better off. I have to think of a way to deal with these two pearls."
Lu Weng anxiously stroked his green beard as he fell into deep thought. After a while, he gave a bitter smile and said, "This pearl's Heaven and Earth Energy is so terrifying, I can't possibly eat it! What should I do!"
"Forget it … forget it, it's fate. It looks like this old man's fate with this little fellow ends here." Lu Weng shook his head helplessly.
At this time, he had already made up his mind to give up on Ling Xiao. Otherwise, when his Sea of Consciousness exploded, he would also be injured.
"That's right, if this old man can't deal with it, then why not let that little fellow do it? This is his territory. As long as he can control these two damned pearls, he'll be fine." Suddenly, Lu Weng seemed to have thought of a solution and patted his head.
"Yes, let's do that." Lu Weng made his decision and sat down cross-legged. His entire body released a green light and he instantly disappeared from his Sea of Consciousness.
Not long after, the green light returned, and this time it was pulling Ling Xiao's soul along with it.
"Uh … why am I back here?" This wasn't the first time Ling Xiao had entered his Sea of Consciousness. The last time he had entered his Qi Deviation, he had accidentally entered his Sea of Consciousness. Now that he had returned, he naturally knew that he was in his Sea of Consciousness.
But now, his sea of consciousness seemed to have been divided into three parts. The largest part was occupied by a bluish-red glow, and the other was occupied by a greyish-black fog. The two were constantly devouring each other, but the greyish-black fog was showing signs of defeat. The last small part was occupied by a small tree. The green light it emitted could actually block the bluish-red glow and the greyish-black fog's devouring, and it occupied a relatively small area.
"Little friend, I trust you've been well since we last met!" Lu Weng walked over to Ling Xiao's side.
Ling Xiao's expression darkened and he unhappily said, "I trust you've been well since we last met? You really know how to joke. Can't you see that they've almost caused my Sea of Consciousness to explode?"
"Hehe, it was a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue!" Lu Weng laughed awkwardly.
Ling Xiao glanced at Lu Weng and asked, "Elder Lu, do you have any way to stop them?"
"There is a way …" Lu Weng said.
However, before he could finish, Ling Xiao anxiously said, "Since there is a way, then hurry up and stop them! Could it be that you are willing to watch me die and not help me?"
"Little friend, don't be anxious. Listen to this old man first," Lu Weng comforted.
"Please speak!" Ling Xiao looked at Lu Weng expectantly.
With life and death at stake, how could Ling Xiao not be anxious?
"I brought you here so that you can stop them!" Lu Weng said.
"What? I … I can stop them? You think too highly of me!" Ling Xiao cried out in shock.
The two pearls in front of him were both unique treasures of heaven and earth, and their power was rather frightening. Ling Xiao had experienced it firsthand. If he could stop them, he would need to be at least a Mystic Thearch level super expert.
Right now, he was only a small high-level Mystic cultivator, and there was still a huge gap between him and a Mystic Thearch level super expert.
Why did he feel that this old man seemed to be tricking him?
"Little friend, listen to me first. Do you know what this place is?" Lu Weng asked, keeping him in suspense.
Ling Xiao's expression darkened, and he immediately said unhappily, "Of course this is my spiritual sea!"
He cursed in his heart, "This old man must have eaten the wrong medicine. Could it be that I don't even know my own spiritual sea?"
"That's right. This is your spiritual sea, and this is also your territory. As the owner, it shouldn't be too difficult for you to stop them, right?" Lu Weng tried to lead him on.
Ling Xiao carefully mulled over Lu Weng's words and seemed to understand something. His anxious expression slowly calmed down, and he clasped his hands together and exclaimed, "That's right! In this old man's territory, even a dragon has to coil up and a tiger has to crouch for me!"
With that, Ling Xiao sat down cross-legged and began to circulate the Soul-Controlling Art. The spiritual energy in his spiritual sea was slowly being gathered by him.
The spiritual energy that he had cultivated for more than a year transformed into a vast expanse of formless light that first gathered towards Ling Xiao.
For a moment, the blue fire light and the greyish-black mist were pushed out by the spiritual energy into a small area, and this area was still gradually expanding.
Right now, Ling Xiao wanted to gather the spiritual energy in his spiritual sea and then think of a way to deal with the Blue Demon Fire Pearl together with the Connate Yin Wind Pearl.
After all, the Connate Yin Wind Pearl had already recognized him as its master. As long as he could restrain the Blue Demon Fire Pearl, his crisis would naturally be easily resolved.
Lu Weng slightly shifted his position and smiled as he stroked his green beard, "If this child can subdue these two strange pearls at the same time, his future will be limitless!"
