Shennong Dao Master

[Note: A Mutant Moon Tree born in the Black Sky Wilderness, having absorbed fragments of moonlight; upon growing to the Peak, it is equivalent to a Human Clan Reincarnation Emperor Level, an auxiliary-type soldier unit.]

"Little Black, cast the Taiyin Moonlight." Zhao Xing moved his mind.

"Weng~"

A bright full moon immediately rose upon the Moon Tree, strands of milky-white radiance draping down. Zhao Xing took a deep breath and found that even his Soul Power had increased a little.

"This Taiyin Moonlight makes my True Spirit feel comfortable; over the long term it can even raise my upper limit. It can also replenish Soul Power—truly worthy of being an auxiliary-type treasure tree."

Zhao Xing did not absorb for long; the Black Heaven Moon Tree’s spiritual wisdom had only just formed, so it would not be good to over-extract it.

After soothing it once, he came to stand in front of the Spirit-devouring Grass.

"Boom——"

Just as he arrived before the Spirit-devouring Grass, a loud bang resounded in Zhao Xing’s mind.

Then came a "kuku-kuku," like a human laughing.

"What a little rascal!"

Zhao Xing’s head swam and buzzed; he almost lost his footing.

If the Black Heaven Moon Tree was the obedient girl in the academy, then the Spirit-devouring Grass was the strong and robust little terror.

Not only did it refuse to heed any teaching, it instead spat a mouthful of saliva at the teacher.

The key point was that this teacher Zhao Xing wasn’t even stronger than the little terror.

"Dang!"

Zhao Xing controlled a portion of the Hun Yuan Dao Tower’s power and made it strike and ring beside the Spirit-devouring Grass.

"Ji ji ji——"

The Spirit-devouring Grass’s spiritual wisdom was like a startled fish, darting madly about, but it still could not escape the cage.

By instinct it unleashed its innate Secret Technique, but before the Hun Yuan Dao Tower, everything was futile.

"Do you submit or not?"

Zhao Xing once more attempted a consciousness invasion, beginning his disciplining of the Spirit-devouring Grass.

"Puchi~"

A strand of Soul Power followed along the Spirit-devouring Grass’s root and stem, drawing near the spiritual-wisdom body, but in the very next second it was wiped out.

Zhao Xing’s face turned slightly pale as he stepped back a pace.

"As expected of a Legendary-grade existence; the difficulty of taming it is not ordinary."

Untamable wildness applies not only to demon beasts, but also to wild plants like the Spirit-devouring Grass.

Zhao Xing thought for a moment and left a Taichu Avatar beside the Spirit-devouring Grass, sitting down cross-legged.

He planned to rely on the suppression of the Hun Yuan Dao Tower and then use the avatar to continuously carry out spiritual invasion and consciousness indoctrination.

As for the Seven Realms True Spirit Bamboo? It was a gift from the Five Poison Emperor. From its youth it had been nurtured under Zhao Xing’s meticulous care; after its spiritual wisdom first awakened, it completely obeyed Zhao Xing.

Now that the Inner World had been opened, it had also absorbed a bit of the Divine Stone of Boundary Splitting’s energy and stepped into the Peak, comparable to Emperor Level combat strength.

Within the first landmass of the Inner World’s interior, among the first batch of native species, there had also appeared seven Emperor-level-quality plants and tens of thousands of royal-level-quality plant lives.

However, at this time they were all still in the seedling stage, so Zhao Xing was in no hurry to inspect them.

He had more important things to do.

"The second breakthrough."

"Also the breakthrough of the Earth Advantage Sect’s Cultivation Technique ’Extreme Land’."

Zhao Xing had always cultivated the Three Sects concurrently; during the Origin Realm period he had also accumulated the three great Dao Origins of Heavenly Time, Earth Advantage, and Self.

Now, opening up the [Inner World] was only the completion of the breakthrough along the Self Sect path.

"In the Extreme Continent Technique, the First Layer is Introducing Meridians into the Body."

"The Second Layer is Accumulating Meridians into Mountains, which splits into two directions: Jilu Jiezi Mountain and Extreme Land Giant God Peak. I cultivate Jilu Jiezi Mountain."

The Extreme Land Giant God Peak emphasizes strengthening the flesh with Mana, making oneself as heavy as the Extreme Land itself, ultimately achieving the idealized Realm of being invincible in the world, undying and indestructible.

Jilu Jiezi Mountain emphasizes the refinement of Mana, aiming to enhance the effects of Spells. When Mana transforms into Divine Power and is strengthened without limit, one need not deliberately search, yet can sense the existence of the legendary Extreme Land and even harness the earth veins upon the Extreme Land.

Back then, Zhao Xing chose the Jilu Jiezi Mountain direction mainly because, at that time, the Spells he had learned—whether Five-Finger Mountain or Demon God Palace—placed high demands on Mana and spell control, while the body came second.

In terms of defense, he had the Giant Sun Grassman and Taixu Grassman Technique to protect him, so his need for physical resilience was not that great.

Furthermore, it was also a matter of personal preference; Zhao Xing did not like walking the body-tempering path. When the Extreme Land Giant God Peak is refined to the end, the flesh transforms into a Divine Mountain, even into a whole Star Land; that feels somewhat non-human.

After cultivating Qinghua Magical Power, his Magic Body’s defense was not weak to begin with, so there was no need to follow the Extreme Land Giant God Flow.

"The different directions of the Third Layer of Extreme Land are respectively [Jiezhi Realm] and [Five Epoch Body]."

The Third Layer of the Jieziliu path corresponds to the Reincarnation Realm; once the Jiezhi Realm is cultivated, the influence of the Third Layer of Extreme Land spreads from the inside out, enhancing one’s control over the suns, moons, mountains, and lands in the Cosmic Void.

In other words, the range of the Jieziliu’s Mountain Technique, Ksitigarbha Skill, Earth Palace Skill, and Xuantu Skill expands, and their power grows stronger.

The Five Epoch Body, on the other hand, is the Extreme Continent Technique’s influence from the outside in. It is named according to the five earth vein eras of the Primordial Era; the earth veins within the body will manifest the traits of the five earth vein eras, becoming more formidable and more wondrous.

Emperor Hongshan is of the Extreme Land Giant God Flow.

The two flows each have their own distinctive traits.

The Lifebound Reincarnation Daoist of the Extreme Land Giant God Flow is a mountain or a Spirit Stone.

After actively casting the Reincarnation Secret Skill, it will transform into a mountain peak or a Spirit Stone; this is when the Giant God Flow is at its hardest—among those of the same level, it is almost impossible to capture or destroy.

And it will automatically return toward the territory of the Ancient Hill, being guided by the Primordial Earth Vein.

At the same time, the Lifebound Mountain Peak and Lifebound Spirit Stone are inscribed with the Secret Pattern of the Earth Communication Skill, emitting intense fluctuations toward all corners of the universe. The Ministers of Agriculture of the Ancient Hill can, through the Earth Communication Secret Technique, teleport onto the reincarnated mountain peak or reincarnated Spirit Stone and complete their rescue of fellow disciples.
