"Great! Master, can we collect all this immortal energy?"
"Capturing celestial energy isn't necessarily difficult."
The young emperor seemed somewhat embarrassed to speak, and waved his hand.
"Cultivators who have survived the Heavenly Tribulation or reached the realm of Immortal through other means can effectively control Immortal Qi."
"So... does the minor lightning tribulation count?" Lin Ye asked in surprise.
"Lin'er, why don't you give it a try?" The young emperor nodded, snapped his fingers, and gathered the spiritual energy in the ancient bronze hall into a miniature sphere like a black hole.
Lin Ye felt somewhat uncomfortable in the spiritual vacuum state, but at this moment he became more aware that some extremely small amounts of strange energy were permeating the space of the bronze coffin.
That's immortal energy that ordinary cultivators can't control!
Lin Ye tried it, but couldn't control it at all. The minor lightning tribulation really didn't count, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Since only quasi-immortals who have survived the tribulation can control immortal energy, the only cultivator who has recently undergone tribulation is the old demon emperor, but we can't let him help us..." Lin Ye was troubled.
Old Deng is quite selfish.
Collecting immortal energy is indeed important, but it's unwise to treat Old Deng as a mere tool.
A bloodbath will be inevitable at that time.
With ample intelligence, the ambush and killing of Old Deng wasn't out of desperation, it's just... although there was no emotion involved, it was still a matter of fate.
Taking this magical energy to him is tantamount to driving Old Deng to his death.
Lin Ye sighed, then suddenly his eyes lit up. He activated his dream-entering ability and connected with the ancestral dan, who was far away in the era of the giant god.
Nine Tribulations Sword, Ancestral Pill, and Emperor Flame—these three...
They all went to the Great World of the Universe after they had completed their tribulation stage.
'I can borrow some of their abilities... Holy crap, the magical energy is coming!'
Lin Ye was all smiles when he saw a small creature clinging to his waist, struggling to climb up. Lin Ye squinted and scooped the ancestral pill onto his shoulder.
The fair-skinned and soft Zu Dan held Lin Ye's head in her arms. His long hair was neatly combed and smoothed, and the ends of his hair brushed against the tip of his nose, allowing him to smell a faint fragrance that all living beings in the world would flock to.
She deliberately scratched Lin Ye's cheek with the end of her hair, acting very clingy.
Her fair, slender legs were crossed, one foot swinging rhythmically, the silver bells on her foot jingling softly, which was quite adorable.
"Sister Zudan is getting younger and younger."
Lin Ye grabbed Zu Dan's swaying, slender ankle and found that he could hold it completely with one hand.
Upon seeing Zu Dan, Lin Ye suddenly felt much more at ease. Zu Dan was soft and gentle, giving off a harmless vibe. It was hard to imagine what it would be like for her to actually kill someone; she might never have killed anyone at all... Zu Dan's background and circumstances didn't really require her to kill to steal treasures.
"Hehe..." Zu Dan chuckled foolishly. She was always moved every time she saw Lin Ye.
He really has no appetite!
The environment in the dream was incredibly realistic, almost like Lin Ye was facing the Ancestral Pill's true form directly. How could he remain completely unaffected? If it were the Nine Tribulations Sword or the Emperor Flame, they would already be drooling with envy!
Tens of thousands of years of friendship, and you actually want to eat me... You bastards...
Zu Dan was self-aware; the allure of immortal pills to cultivators was fundamental, and he could even restrain himself from such a situation. Zu Dan had never seen such a resilient cultivator before.
Xiao Yezi is a child I can get to know better!
As for Lin Ye's drug resistance, it is indeed getting stronger and stronger... High-level spiritual energy provides additional resistance in this regard, and he has been in contact with Bai Yue too much.
He's sucking on the elixir of immortality.
Chapter 360 The Flames of War Are About to Ignite: Who Will Be the Prisoner?
"Little Leaf, come here."
Zu Dan assumed Lin Ye was there to memorize the message from the God of Consciousness, so he readily opened his divine sense and patted Lin Ye's head.
The internal environment of a Quasi-Emperor is quite a headache for Lin Ye.
Even after trying once, it is still a difficult task.
If Lin Ye's consciousness can carry many passengers, replicating the precise structure of a Quasi-Emperor is as difficult as stuffing an elephant into a bus.
"Sister Zudan, there's something... You survived the Heavenly Tribulation, did you have any immortal energy back then?" Lin Ye asked curiously.
"Of course not." Zu Dan blinked innocently. "Only before the connection between heaven and earth is severed can cultivators undergoing tribulation quickly obtain immortal energy. We all have to wait until we go to the Immortal Realm."
"Little Leaf..."
"Did they send you to ask this?"
Zu Dan's eyes flickered, and his tone suddenly became somewhat uncertain.
"Hmm?" Lin Ye shook his head in confusion.
“Isn’t that right, ha…” Zudan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Actually, the Nine Tribulations Sword and Emperor Flame often asked me if Zero possessed any hidden immortal energy."
"After all, this kind of thing is very rare outside the Immortal Realm, and I am an immortal pill... so they naturally think that I might possess immortal energy."
"I've never even told either of them..."
"Little Yezi, don't tell anyone, okay?" Zudan gestured for silence.
"Actually, I really do have celestial energy, I just don't use it usually."
“They always thought I couldn’t beat them, but actually… hehe…” Zudan said smugly, hands on his hips.
Lin Ye nodded. Sure enough, even the fellow villagers of the Pangu Clan had their own secrets. Even though they were very friendly, they still had to compete for the position of Emperor.
"However, we all probably have this secret in mind."
Zu Dan took a breath and lowered his eyes.
"What a pity... Little Leaf, we've known each other for thousands of years, yet we still can't truly trust each other."
"I don't want to do this with you."
As he spoke, Zu Dan pinched Lin Ye's cheek.
Lin Ye broke free: "I understand, Sister Zu Dan, I won't say anything."
“Hmm…if they tell you the same secret, don’t tell me either,” Zudan added.
To allow Lin Ye to memorize her internal environment, Zu Dan released the restriction. She was somewhat shy, and her smooth skin trembled slightly.
While reciting the consciousness of the Ancestral Pill for a while, Lin Ye had already collected a small amount of immortal energy in the Dark Ages.
Whenever Lin Ye felt that mysterious power surging within his body, he would feel an overwhelming sense of happiness welling up inside him.
.......
After absorbing the immortal energy for a while, Lin Ye felt his body was already full.
They quickly transferred it out and stored it in a remnant of a celestial artifact retrieved from the Star Alliance.
The little emperor and the little sinner had been observing from the sidelines for quite some time.
As soon as Lin Ye opened his eyes, he saw two almost identical little faces crowding close to him, observing him with great curiosity.
"Aura of immortality... I want it too..." Xiao Zui was so tempted that she stepped forward and hugged Lin Ye tightly. The sweet and pungent smell of blood on her body was quite intoxicating once you got used to it.
"I definitely want the other one too!"
"Huh? I... I have no attachment to immortal energy! Don't slander me..." Suddenly caught in the crossfire, the little emperor's cheeks flushed slightly, and he shook his head repeatedly.
"Little Zui, you can just wait to use mine."
"I can collect immortal energy now!" Lin Ye gave his master a thumbs up.
"Lin'er, look at you, you can already come into contact with immortal energy so early... I really don't envy her..." The little emperor clicked her tongue in amazement and poked Lin Ye's cheek. She still remembered how pale Lin Ye looked not long ago, just a few years ago.
Although that might be from the perspective of a young emperor... it's roughly equivalent to a grandmother looking at her grandson and saying, "The child has become so thin."
However, with such rapid progress, they've all started preparing to adopt an ethereal aura, making it difficult for anyone to criticize Lin Yexu anymore.
In terms of high-level spiritual energy alone, barring any unforeseen circumstances, no one in the entire Four Continents can match him.
In terms of spiritual energy quality alone, Lin Ye has officially reached the top, defeated the Mahayana cultivators, and is now poised to conquer the Divine Continent.
After a few brief conversations, with the help of the Wild Curse, the young emperor believed that collecting about 20,000 more times the amount of immortal energy would be enough for Lin Ye to exchange the fixed high-level spiritual energy in his body for immortal energy.
“The solidified high-level spiritual energy won’t be wasted; we’ll help you transform it into inscriptions within your body,” the little prince and Xiao Zui whispered to Lin Ye as they nestled close together.
Lin Ye took a deep breath.
Twenty thousand times is quite a lot, but it doesn't take too long to absorb immortal energy once.
Moreover, by entering a dream, one can work simultaneously with the consciousness of the deity creating the Ancestral Pill, with efficiency as smooth as opening a floodgate!
However, the high-level spiritual energy had already caused Lin Ye to stagger for a moment.
Once he gathers enough immortal energy, and then tries to upgrade his weapon like this... he's doomed.
They might have to use a wheelchair.
"Unable to move...in a wheelchair...and..."
Lin Ye suddenly jolted awake, and glanced at Xiao Zui, his master, and the ancestral pill to confirm their figures.
If Lin Ye were drinking water, he would have spat it out right now.
"Oh no, I'm imprisoned!"
"I'll correct it!" In order to avoid being hallucinated as Stephen Hawking, Lin Ye decided to strengthen his control over high-level spiritual energy, so that when he switched to immortal energy, he wouldn't have to sit in a wheelchair.
Otherwise, it would be... Gu Yuesheng: "Rebellion against the Heavenly Gang, family members."
Nine Tribulations Sword: "So lewd, so very lewd..." (A reversal of the sickly character setting in a matriarchal worldview)
Is there really such a sickly young lady with such a rich romantic history (flipped)? If so, she'd definitely be the villain who gets stepped on in secret!
I'd rather just continue being the head of the household.
After trying it out, Lin Ye quickly realized that collecting immortal energy would take some time, and it wouldn't be possible to accelerate the improvement of high-level spiritual energy control beyond the plan.
Lin Ye grinned, his mind strong, and readily accepted the possibility of becoming a prisoner.
"It's not a big problem... Once the immortal energy is replaced, the tribulation will be ruined... I might have a chance to learn from the Martial Emperor and avoid becoming a prison leaf... How did she overcome it back then without a wheelchair... Speaking of which, this sister is the real prisoner." Lin Ye thought to himself.
.......
At the agreed time, the old men all arrived.
They are Duke Su of Demon Emperor Mountain, Master Craftsman of the Refiner Guild, Pavilion Master Nangong of Divine Sword Pavilion, and Chu Yingxing of Wanbaolou.
The four of them looked around and saw that the palace was in perfect order, which made them feel somewhat moved.
Duke Su breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Highness is truly capable..."
At this moment, a streak of light flashed by, and Lin Ye leaped down from the flying shuttle, saying, "This time, I am willing to borrow a piece of land in the palace to save the world. I wonder if you seniors are willing to help me?"
The Sword Pavilion Master was deeply moved. Seeing Lin Ye's swaying figure and fluctuating aura, it was clear that he was injured.
To still tirelessly work to prevent bloodshed under such circumstances—what kind of spirit is this? It's truly moving!
The world is going to the dogs these days, and people who value loyalty and affection are almost extinct.
I made the right choice in befriending my grandson!
Without thinking, the Sword Master nodded and said, "Alright!"
"Young friend Lin, let me help you! Bring on any demon or whatever else you may want!"
The other veterans couldn't help but glance at him.
No, fellow Daoist, you're already at the Mahayana stage and you're still so passionate? And he doesn't seem to have any beast bloodline, so this isn't cultivation!
Upon hearing this, Lin Ye was overjoyed. He summoned a portal and invited the group to sit down opposite him for a detailed discussion.
The Master of the Divine Sword Pavilion is a sword cultivator nearing the late stage of Mahayana cultivation. He has high attack power but low health, making him particularly suitable for dealing with enemies with bizarre abilities, such as the Great Calamity Creation. Moreover, it is said that he still has a lot of lifespan left to burn!
Collecting three Mahayana stage tasks is enough to get one person, needless to say.
Their combat strength is also very useful.
The Divine Sword Pavilion is itself a major sect of sword cultivators.
In the original history, the area where the Divine Sword Pavilion was located was separated from the mortal realm.
This is undoubtedly a loss for those on the path of sword cultivation research.
