Chapter 314: Demon Path Panel, Planting the Devil Seed
The panel has changed.
In the [Bindable] section, there appeared a [Dao/Demon], and the bindings indicated by both sides were different.
Originally, the binding was indicated as: Humans recognized by Li Ye.
Now another option was added: Humans with desires, with different enhancement effects based on the desires of humans, after consumption.
Moreover, Li Ye could still feel.
What it required was a new kind of reinforcing "power."
Or rather, something opposing the Vital Essence, belonging to the "Stillness" of the Ashes of Stillness.
And to acquire this power of stillness, it seemed he needed to personally end lives to obtain the Ashes of Stillness from the demise of life.
And it also seemed he had to maintain the circulation of Demonic Qi within him to be able to acquire it.
Does this mean it's like the Golden Finger for Demonic Cultivators?
But do Demonic Cultivators also farm?
"…"
Even Li Ye did not expect such a change to appear on his panel, but since it had come, he might as well make use of it.
Unfortunately, there was only this kind of Spirit Plant here at the moment, not enough to see more. If Jianmu were still around, he could observe the many species it housed.
"Alas."
He straightened up.
He could sense that the mad monk had already spread his Demonic Qi to a deeper level of the world.
It seemed quite severe.
This demonic seed was growing larger.
Will he really be able to endure it when the time comes?
However, Li Ye was not overly worried and was even somewhat relaxed.
"Senior Brother."
"What are you doing exactly?"
He looked into the distance.
Meanwhile, in a certain special space, Li Ye's Senior Brother, Jiang Guichen, was also gazing at the sky.
Beside this Golden Core True Man stood two "avatars" nearly identical to himself.
The three of them were looking up at the Heavenly Dome.
One of them sighed, "Such good sunlight, we'll probably never see it again. That fellow is truly clever, using transformation to escape your influence directly."
"In fact, you all could do the same."
Jiang Guichen looked at these two avatars created with the Compassion Fruit, his lips always curled in a smile.
"I have a premonition that my Nascent Soul opportunity is right here, maybe even rests on that little junior brother. I'm quite looking forward to it."
The black-robed avatar furrowed his brows and said, "But I can feel that the Demonic Qi belonging to him is corroding the deep layer of the Hell Path. This should be one of the supreme inheritances of the Four Seasons Sect, the Demon Seeding in the Heart of Dao.
Aren't you afraid he won't be able to control this Demonic Qi?
By then, if he really can't maintain the Heart of Dao and falls into demonic ways, your Four Seasons Sect might end up with another Great Demon.
And such a special Great Demon."
The white-robed avatar responded to his words, "Then it depends on how special his Tao Foundation is. After all, Dao and Demon achieve each other. If the Tao Foundation is too large and the demonic seed too small, that wouldn't be good either."
Staying here daily, they had become accustomed to chatting with each other, and generally, they often undermined each other's points. Only when neither could convince the other would Jiang Guichen decide.
Technically, they were not at a stage where no one could persuade anyone else; it was merely a peaceful discussion. But Jiang Guichen suddenly spoke:
"You haven't considered a third possibility."
With these words, both avatars were momentarily stunned.
They contemplated seriously for a moment, and the black-robed avatar, still frowning, said, "You mean he wants to harness this Demonic Qi, not letting it be completely devoured by the Dao?
But isn't this also a way of merging Dao?
Surely he won't also create avatars, right? I've interacted with him; he doesn't seem like someone who casually creates avatars."
"Indeed."
"The Divine Technique of Demon Seeding in the Heart of Dao essentially uses the Tao Foundation to carry the demon seed. Ultimately, it is still a matter of soaking the demon seed in the Tao Laws; the fruit that grows out of it is merely a demon altered by Dao."
"So…"
Jiang Guichen calmly said, "There has never been a Demon Path that could openly walk the world; if Junior Brother has this capability, the sect would undoubtedly be pleased.
After all, as our Four Seasons Sect expands outward, it's inevitable we encounter some demon forces. Recruiting them is always challenging, but with a master of the Demon Path who has a heart in the Taoist Sect…
That would be no problem at all."
These words sounded rather rebellious.
Many cultivators, since embarking on the path of cultivation, have held onto the belief that Dao and Demon are irreconcilable, yet as a core disciple of the Four Seasons Sect, he actually thought that the Demon Path didn't matter.
He even seemed a bit eager for his junior brother to become the leader of the Demon Path.
This is truly.
Quite intriguing.
"It's just a shame the two of us won't see it."
The white-robed avatar shook his head, "Time's almost up. It should begin; otherwise, if that Demonic Qi really spreads to the core of the Hell Path, it might truly turn into a real Hell Transformation Diagram."
"Mm."
Jiang Guichen's expression became much more serious.
"Now it's up to the tacit understanding between me and Junior Brother. When I advance to Nascent Soul and the Spirit Domain unfolds, surely I can let everything fall into slumber. Then if he can reclaim the demonic seed into himself, this matter can succeed."
He sat cross-legged on the ground.
Then spread his arms, as his two avatars revealed smiles of relief, merging into two strands of Spiritual Light that entered his body.
Immediately.
Above his head rose a pill resembling the sun, yet the emanating force from this pill was a gentle, veil-like Power of Night.
The night slowly spread.
It disregarded every spatial barrier, ignored all arrays, much like the natural order of day breaks and night falls, nothing could stop it from spreading out.
