Chapter 391 Hong Li Breeds A Demon, Eastern Sovereign Is About To Emerge
Chapter 391: Hong Li Cultivates Demon Seed, Eastern Sovereign Prepares to Emerge
When Hong Li traveled far and wide in her early years, she once obtained a secret technique.
This technique is called "Cultivating Demon Seed."
Using one's mind as a guide, gathering evil thoughts within the heart to form a demon seed.
The demon seed itself is unaware of its own nature and gradually grows stronger through instinct.
Once it matures, it can be devoured.
At that time, it can strengthen the Divine Soul and eliminate distracting thoughts, solidifying the Dao heart.
This cultivation method has many benefits, but of course, it also carries risks.
The most crucial aspect of cultivating demon seed lies in controlling the strength of the seed and the process of digestion.
If one fails to control the strength of the demon seed, it may backfire.
During the digestion process, one will face the mental impact of the demon seed. If one cannot resist it, they will lose themselves.
In short, this is a high-risk, high-reward cultivation method. Hong Li had only heard of it before and had no intention of learning it.
In the present day, cultivators, except for those who are reckless, mostly follow the path of moderation and harmony, without seeking danger.
Only Demon Dao and evil cultivators would choose this fast and high-risk path. This is also the fundamental method to distinguish between the righteous path and the evil path, rather than judging based on good or evil intentions.
Now, Hong Li is forced to resort to this method.
She cannot make Zhang Chi fall in love with her, so she plans to plant a demon seed and make the seed fall in love with Zhang Chi. By using the demon seed to deceive others, Zhang Chi will surely be unable to discern her true feelings.
Once she completes her cultivation and gains Zhang Chi's trust, it will be easier for her to escape.
At that time, she can devour the demon seed, enter seclusion for a period of time, and achieve the position of Monster Sovereign. Zhang Chi will undoubtedly need her power even more.
Even if she cannot break free from the restrictions of the slave seal, she will not be as helpless as she is now.
Hong Li has devised a plan, and the only thing she needs to worry about is not letting the demon seed grow too quickly.
If it backfires, the threat will be significant.
Using this cultivation method is like dancing on the edge of a knife. One small mistake can harm oneself.
If she had a choice, Hong Li would never use this cultivation method.
But now, she can only practice this secret technique while Zhang Chi is not at home.
Hong Li's face showed a painful expression. This cultivation method requires using the mind as a guide and splitting a part of one's Divine Soul. The process is naturally painful.
She must endure the pain and inject the evil thoughts she wants to transfer into the split Divine Soul to form the demon seed.
"You must fall in love with Zhang Chi, fall in love with Zhang Chi!"
Hong Li emphasized three times, then stopped the infusion when she couldn't bear it any longer.
Fortunately, the demon seed took shape.
Next, she only needs to nurture it for two more days, and the demon seed will break through the ground and temporarily take control of her body.
Hong Li felt the power of the demon seed, which is still very weak at the moment. Her main consciousness can extinguish it at any time.
Feeling the huge gap in power between herself and the demon seed, Hong Li finally felt somewhat relieved.
Now, she just needs to patiently wait for the demon seed to fully mature so she can cultivate with Zhang Chi.
Thinking of this, Hong Li clenched her teeth in determination.
On this night, Hong Li nurtured the demon seed, while Zhang Chi had already set his sights on Zi Mian, but he hesitated due to the timing not being right.
At this time, Long Yi naturally received news of the appearance of the True Virtue Daoist.
Long Yi also had a deep impression of this True Virtue.
The fact that True Virtue was able to find Ao Long back then showed that he had some ability.
Now he had to go out and find Zhang Chi, and Long Yi was also delighted.
Originally, he was worried that these people would not be of much use and would not be able to find Zhang Chi's whereabouts. Unexpectedly, they had led out the true and good.
In Long Yi's view, this true and good person was definitely not someone of true and good character. They just used this name to create a reputation for themselves.
They said it was free, but where in the world is there a free lunch?
It's just using the name of "free" to deceive people and there will always be ulterior motives afterwards.
Long Yi didn't care what the true and good person was plotting. As long as they followed his lead and helped him achieve his great plan, it would be enough.
And seeing that various forces were taking action because of the appearance of the true and good, Long Yi was also very happy.
"Mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Once they strike Zhang Chi hard, I will kill them to avenge the grudge of that day!"
Long Yi had a plan in mind, but if he wanted to keep up with the pace of the true and good and others, it would be better to get closer to the Zhubo City. If there were any situations, he could react in time.
While Long Yi was secretly planning, the Funeral Song Priest and Dongfang Wenli also returned to the Snow Mountain God Temple and Eastern Sovereign Palace respectively, discussing the information they had heard from the true and good.
"Can we fight with the power of the Western State?"
Dongfang Shu heard the news brought back by Dongfang Wenli and felt a little uneasy.
If there were no disturbances in the Western State during this period, these words would only be regarded as alarmist by the Eastern Sovereign Palace.
But now, everything seemed to have some signs.
And now, it was precisely this point that troubled the Dongfang Family.
The risk of taking action was too great, and they were also worried that the information might not be accurate.
Not taking action would mean the risk of missing a good opportunity. If what the true and good said was true, this person could cause chaos in the entire Western State. It might be too late to take action then.
The current situation was indeed a dilemma.
"Do you have any good strategies?"
Dongfang Shu looked at his younger generation. At this moment, they could only brainstorm and come up with the best plan.
"We can't fully trust what the true and good said, but we also can't afford not to believe it."
The skeptical one was Empress Ximen Zhiyu. What she said was the thinking of everyone present.
Having doubts would lead to indecision. Dongfang Shu looked at Dongfang Wenli and said, "Wenli, you are the only one who has contact with the true and good person. What do you think of this person?"
"Wenli dare not speak rashly."
Dongfang Wenli did not dare to give his own judgment. After all, this was a matter of life and death for the Dongfang Family. If things went wrong, the entire family could be destroyed because of a single word.
However, he did have something else to say.
"Today, I held the Soul-Chasing Pearl, but I didn't sense anything from the puppet of the true and good. After checking the Soul-Chasing Pearl afterwards, it was not damaged."
This aside was very crucial, making everyone understand his meaning.
This true and good master was not simple.
The Soul-Chasing Pearl was not damaged, but they couldn't find the true location of the true and good. Everyone didn't think that the true and good could control the puppet from two thousand miles away. They believed that the true and good had a method to protect themselves from being investigated.
"If that's the case, this person is indeed extremely mysterious. I just don't know what his purpose is. Is he helping the world and saving people, or does he have other intentions?"
Emperor Dongfang Xuan Shang also couldn't understand.
It was Princess Dongfang Xuan Cang who boldly said, "Why do we care whether this true and good person has any calculations?
We just need to follow what he said and mobilize the entire clan's strength together. What do we have to fear if we are united?
If what he said is true, our full force will give us a chance for the future. If what he said is false, no matter what he is plotting, as long as our strength is united, what is there to fear in the Western State?
If he really has the ability to wipe us all out, there is no need to play any tricks.
As for launching an attack while our rear is empty, it is not of great significance.
As long as we are here, the Eastern Sovereign Palace is here, what is there to fear?"
