Chapter 222: Stay Here, Don't Move Around
Feng Qingan, who already knew that Donghuang had undergone several transformations, checked the general situation of Donghuang. Before he could be amazed by the changes in Dunhuang, the feedback from the Soul Contract finally came.
It was a force as surging as a tidal wave, so powerful that it even shook the soul contract between Feng Qingan and Dong Huang, making it somewhat unstable. This was the first time Feng Qingan had encountered such a situation since he became a beastmaster.
However, Feng Qing'an soon had no extra thoughts to think about whether the soul contract between him and Donghuang would be torn apart by the surging feedback force.
Because this power has poured down from his brows, spreading along his spine and all over his body. It is different from the first time he took on Donghuang's power.
The power feedback from the innate Yin spirit should only nourish his soul and increase his soul power, and will not directly affect his physical body.
Logically speaking, it should be the same this time, but the power that Donghuang, who survived the heavenly tribulation and completed his promotion, fed back to him contained a special power similar to that of the Fiery Sun Tree, but with a different kind of vitality, and this power directly acted on his body.
It was clearly positive feedback, but it made Feng Qing'an feel the pain of being shattered into pieces. His body seemed to be thrown into a millstone and crushed back and forth. That would have been fine, but it would be put together again and thrown in again, repeating over and over again.
Fortunately, Feng Qing'an had been mentally prepared. He had experienced similar pain before, so he was still calm at the moment. He was just experiencing pain.
What does that matter ?
His current body and even soul strength have greatly increased. Such an opportunity is something that many people would beg for. If he were to be picky, it would be too ungrateful.
“Hold on!”
Feng Qing'an could feel a sweet scent of blood in his mouth, and he even felt that his teeth were slightly loose.
He seemed to want to take advantage of Donghuang's momentum to break through the realm and undergo a transformation as well. However, at this time, Donghuang's voice sounded.
"You haven't started practicing yet, so you can't undergo such a drastic transformation. If you can't bear it, you can introduce this source into the cave and refine it slowly!"
The essence of the soul contract feedback is to collect the original energy that the other party is unable to control and is destined to dissipate during the promotion and transformation. Therefore, this is of no harm to Donghuang.
Her strength increased dramatically when she was undergoing the tribulation. The power that was at her fingertips before was no longer as strong as before. Even she could not fully control it in such a short period of time and needed some time to adapt.
She was powerless to do anything about Feng Qing'an's pain. If not, she would not have proposed severing the soul contract before he passed the tribulation. She was really worried that the scattered essence that she could not control would be fed back to Feng Qing'an through the soul contract and would hurt him.
"good!"
Feng Qing'an always listens to advice and will not grit his teeth and hold on just because he can't bear it anymore. Although he can endure the pain, what is his purpose in enduring the pain?
Isn't it because the subsequent transformation gave him a stronger physique and strength, which allowed him to be more free and unrestrained.
It's not like he has a lump on his head or is bored, so he doesn't seek pain just for the sake of pain.
As for how to guide the power fed back by the soul contract into the cave, there is naturally no need to teach. Feng Qingan has done a lot of things like guiding power.
However, when Feng Qing'an introduced the original power feedback from Donghuang into the cave that had been ruined for a long time, this cave that had been silent for who knows how long began to roar and vibrate from top to bottom.
In the Ten Thousand Demon Pass that was open to the public, many monsters were trembling in fear. In the Ten Thousand Demon Prison filled with demonic energy and evil winds, demons were roaring. The Demon Locking Tower and the Demon Subduing Hall, which were built to lock the monsters, were shining brightly. A magnificent formation was thus revealed, sealing the sky and the earth to keep out the monsters.
The people on the third floor, which was regarded as the Xiao family's thousand-year foundation, were in a panic. Even the Golden-winged Demon King on the fourth floor, which could be regarded as the Xiao family's foundation, could no longer stay in his nest.
Feng Qing'an also noticed the abnormality in the cave. He disappeared from the room in a flash and appeared on the fifth floor where there was no one and almost no life.
"What do you want to do?"
Feng Qing'an looked up at the seemingly empty dome of the cave with rolling clouds and mist. Even though his whole body was in pain, he still gritted his teeth and spoke word by word, without showing any sign of weakness.
"Feng Qing'an, where did you find the innate origin? There are so many of them, and they can all be repaired..."
Hearing Feng Qing'an's voice, heads as big as mountains and as shaped like dragons and snakes appeared from the sky and then appeared in front of Feng Qing'an. Although they were such huge monsters, they showed an extremely excited expression.
"If you dare to touch my things, I will leave now and I will never set foot here again!"
Feng Qing'an didn't wait for this guy to finish speaking, and warned him sternly that he must be insane to use the original power that Donghuang gave him to repair the cave.
"No, I didn't say I was going to touch you, but you injected these innate powers into the cave, aren't you planning to repair the cave?"
Seeing Feng Qing'an's attitude, the spirit of the cave was obviously shocked. To him, Feng Qing'an was like the last straw. No, it was not a straw, but a piece of driftwood. As long as he was caught, this place might really be able to escape the fate of destruction with the passage of time.
"I don't want to repeat the same thing. Before I completely control this place, I will not use any resources to repair it. The size of this place is enough for me now. If it is not enough in the future, that will be something I will have to worry about in the future!"
Feng Qing'an's expression seemed particularly cold.
He saw clearly that the spirit of the cave only surrendered to him due to the pressure of destruction and the helplessness of reality, and it was only a verbal promise, although it also gave him partial control over the cave.
But what Feng Qing'an needs is actual control. As long as he does not have complete control over the cave and there is a possibility that it may be seized by others, he will not pour any resources into it. He will never make wedding dresses for others.
"But these can be restored..."
"No buts, these are all for my own use. If you dare to interfere with my practice, I will accelerate the destruction of this place!"
"I was just asking, I didn't say I wanted to use yours!"
Hearing Feng Qing'an's threat, the nine heads as big as mountains subconsciously shrank back. Although it seemed a bit ridiculous for Feng Qing'an to say such threatening words with his current strength, the spirits of the cave did not dare to underestimate this powerful reincarnation who could see him.
"Just do what you need to do. Don't show up in front of me until I tell you to!"
"good!"
The spirit of the cave nodded like pounding garlic.
"Call me Master!"
Feng Qing'an was arrogant and gave orders without any courtesy, even though he was standing in the area controlled by the other party.
"Yes, sir!"
“Back off!”
Feng Qingan waved his hand impatiently.
Nine heads as big as mountains suddenly and slowly disappeared from the sky. Feng Qing'an could no longer maintain his calmness. He sat cross-legged and began to refine the feedback given to him by Donghuang in the cave. As for the part that he could not bear, he directly guided it into the cave for temporary storage.
The blessed land is not only a place to avoid disasters and calamities, but for the controller, it is also an almost inexhaustible source of magical power, which can be used without restraint in various magical powers.
Buzz~
After Feng Qing'an sat down cross-legged, a dark light shone in the soil in front of him, then broke through the soil and slowly bloomed, revealing to be a third-grade black lotus with golden patterns.
Feng Qing'an was indifferent, because this was the crystal formed by condensing the original power that Donghuang fed back to him with the power of moving the sky, but it just naturally turned into the shape of a black lotus.
As Feng Qing'an absorbed the energy, he poured out what he could not bear into the cave to save it for the future. Then, a red halo gradually emerged, surrounding his figure in the middle.
The ninth soul contract!
Feng Qing'an, who had just condensed the eighth soul contract, took advantage of Donghuang's promotion to strengthen his soul foundation and increase his soul power. He naturally condensed the ninth soul contract and was only one step away from completing the practice of the Lord of the Heavenly Beast.
“…”
When Feng Qing'an felt that the feedback from the soul contract was gradually weakening, he slowly opened his eyes, and the first thing he did was to sense his third soul contract. Fortunately, although this soul contract was a little unstable due to the excessive impact force, it still existed and was not broken.
"Feng Qing'an, what was that conversation you just had?"
After making sure that Feng Qing'an had recovered from the impact of her own feedback, Dong Huang's voice rang out. She seemed to have just seen the communication and dialogue between Feng Qing'an and the spirit of the cave through the soul contract.
Even though Dong Huang was about to regain the state of her previous life, she was still greatly shocked when she came into contact with the existence that had a conversation with Feng Qing'an. That was an existence beyond her understanding and cognition.
"You mean Xiaojiu? It's the spirit of the cave!"
“…”
Dong Huang, whose power was comparable to that of a Taoist immortal, was silent for a moment, then asked,
"What is the spirit of the cave?"
She knew about the cave heaven, but the spirit of the cave heaven was something she had never seen or heard of. It was the first time in her life that she heard about it from Feng Qing'an.
"According to my understanding, this thing is a special spirit body created by the cave heaven on the verge of destruction in order to continue. However, it is difficult for ordinary creatures to detect its existence. Can you see it?"
"I can't see what's going on over there, but I can vaguely sense that you are talking to a being that is no weaker than me!"
Dong Huang replied. Feng Qingan's words made her feel mixed emotions. She didn't know that such a special spirit would be born before the destruction of the cave.
"Well, don't brag about it. That guy is just a paper tiger with nothing on him. He can only do some tricks in this extremely dilapidated cave. Outside of the cave, he is nothing!"
Feng Qing'an didn't care. Although he seemed to be bullying Lao Shi Ling, this was the way it was when dealing with such a powerful but unsocial being.
If he fails to maintain his strong stance, this guy might become more aggressive and swallow up the original power that has just been sent in, which is the power that can repair the cave.
It is hard for a spirit that was born to prevent the destruction of the cave not to covet this power, but the other party needs his help, so he can curb his instinctive desire to devour.
“…”
Dong Huang was silent after hearing Feng Qing'an's words. She just thought of her father. If her father had encountered a ruined cave and the so-called cave spirit, he would never have the attitude he has now.
"Donghuang, now that you have successfully transcended the tribulation, what are your plans next? Continue to expand your ghost kingdom? Conquer more netherworlds?"
Donghuang did not answer, but Feng Qingan was not content and asked the Lord of Youhuang with great interest.
In the underworld, where a king founded a country with his own strength, it is only natural that as the power of the king increases, the country he rules will also expand.
"Even if I don't do it, the ghost kings who are subservient to me will not be content. They will naturally use my banner and my name to expand their territory and become my vassals!"
"You want to add the emperor title?"
Feng Qingan's expression became more and more excited.
"I am still the ruler of the country and will never be an emperor. I am far from qualified now!"
Donghuang, who knew many secrets and taboos, flatly rejected it.
In the secular world, one can be called an emperor, but in the world of cultivation, no matter which world, if one dares to claim the title of emperor without sufficient strength, he will surely suffer an unexpected disaster. This is an iron rule.
Even though a long time has passed since the era she lived in, Donghuang believes that this iron law will not change at all. This is an unforgivable transgression.
"What qualifications?"
Feng Qingan was a little confused.
He didn't understand why Donghuang reacted so strongly, since she was clearly rated Emperor.
"It doesn't matter if you are called an emperor in the secular world, but in the world of cultivation, unless you have the power to sweep across and suppress an entire world, if you don't have such a broad mind and dare to claim the title of emperor, you will surely suffer a disaster!"
"I see!"
Feng Qing'an sensed the seriousness in Dong Huang's tone and took note of his words.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about your plan. Do you want to become my disciple?"
"I don't want to think about it now!"
Feng Qingan, who witnessed the entire process of Donghuang's tribulation with his own eyes, did not have much interest in the so-called Taoist immortals.
He didn't know how the Taoist tribulation of becoming an immortal compared to the heavenly tribulation that Donghuang had gone through, but he believed that there were very few Taoist immortals who could compare to Donghuang.
Donghuang can be said to have rebuilt his life. The intensity of the heavenly tribulation is often closely related to the person who is undergoing the tribulation. He really doesn't believe that the female fairy from Taiyintian can be stronger than Donghuang.
In this case, there is naturally no need to become a disciple. Just show Donghuang the changes in the Taoist scriptures.
"I have collected a lot of Taoist scriptures. I will find an opportunity to send them to you in the future!"
"No need to go through so much trouble. There is a rift between the two worlds near where you are now. Although it is a little small, I can use it to descend. But you have to wait a moment. I need to control the power after overcoming the calamity first!"
"good!"
