Emperor of the North Chapter 656

Chapter 656 - Golden Buddha

As the runes formed from the Great Brahma Art and the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations alternated, Li Mu's expression became especially ugly. As he endured the intense pain of the yin and yang power and his own blood clashing, he also merged his spirit into his Yuan Dan, carefully controlling the fusion of his spirit and Yuan Dan.

"Boom!"

In the distance, the battle between Peng Kun and the alcohol was still continuing. With the addition of the sword, Peng Kun, who was fighting with the semisage and the alcohol, was quickly at a disadvantage. However, the Yin Yang Mirror in his hands was a semisage that could attack and defend at the same time, its power far exceeded that of Li Mu's, helping Peng Kun to avoid a life and death crisis.

"Crack!"

A clear muffled sound resounded from the Yuan Dan in front of Li Mu. Li Mu's dark golden Yuan Dan had finally cracked under Li Mu's desperate pressure.

As the black gold colored Yuan Dan cracked open, a mass of black gold spirit light surged out from the center of Li Mu's Yuan Dan.

The little person's entire body was a dark gold color, and looked extremely similar to Li Mu, but it gave off an evil feeling, because there were many black as ink magic prints on his body, and other than the magic prints, there were also a little bit of gold buddhist light that would appear on his body from time to time. When these Golden Buddhist Light looked closely, they could actually see that it was actually a profound buddhist mantra.

Although it had basically condensed into form, Li Mu had yet to truly achieve the effect of the fusion of his origin soul, consciousness, and true essence.

Suddenly, Li Mu who was sitting cross legged on the ground had a tense expression, the center of his forehead was a ball of consciousness comparable to a True King Realm Ranker, wrapped around a faint golden figure and rushed towards the Primary Spirit Embryo in the air in front of Li Mu, and directly entered between the little person's eyebrows.

The golden figure was Li Mu's primordial spirit, the so called Primordial Spirit Master was the main soul of a human being. If a person lost their primordial spirit, no matter how powerful their physical body would be, it would only be an empty shell, so to cultivators and even demons, in a sense, the Primordial Spirit was more important than primordial spirit pellets and other things like demonic cores.

Following the influx of Li Mu's primordial spirit and consciousness, his primordial spirit began to slowly undergo a change. His eyes suddenly opened wide, and two rays of light that were three feet long shot out from his pupils.

"Success!" Your primordial spirit and spiritual consciousness have fused with your primordial spirit embryo! "

Xu Ruqing, who was standing not too far away from Li Mu, was overjoyed when she saw the change in Li Mu's spirit. She had long since cultivated in late-stage divine ability, so she naturally knew about the process of breaking through the Profound Sky Continent.

When a practitioner of the sacred art realm breaks through to the Tongxuan realm, the process only takes a few steps. The first step is to turn the broken pellet into a spirit and then merge it with the consciousness.

After successfully fusing the soul and the primordial spirit, the user would fuse their own cultivation and primordial spirit into one. This process was based on the profundity of the cultivation technique, which combined the primordial spirit, spiritual consciousness, and primeval essence into one entity. As long as the fusion was successful, a true primordial spirit would be born.

Although the whole process of the breakthrough was a bit complicated and dangerous, and there was the possibility of the elementary spirit turning back in time, it was much easier for a person like Li Mu who had never seen a Spiritual Sense Power before. This was because the Spiritual Sense Power had always been in charge of this process, and Li Mu had an innate advantage in this aspect.

But before Xu Ruqing was happy for long, Li Mu's Primordial Spirit Embryo began to change again. The black and gold Sanskrit on Li Mu's Primordial Spirit Embryo actually started to conflict with each other, seemingly unable to fuse together.

At this moment, Li Mu's body had almost completely changed into a black and white color, and the vitality within his body had reached the extremities of weakness, like a candle flame in the wind, as though it could be extinguished at any time.

"How can this be! The Great Brahma Art and the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations do not conflict.

Inside the black gold primeval essence, Li Mu's consciousness couldn't help but curse loudly. Most of his consciousness and his host spirit had already fused with this primeval essence, the only thing left to do was to use a technique to form the initial spirit essence that had not been stable up till now, but right at this moment, Li Mu discovered that the black magic engravings on his primeval essence were actually clashing against the golden Sansman.

Li Mu usually used the combination of the Great Brahma Art and the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations to coordinate and use the Great Brahma Art's main true essence. As for the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations's main body, even though it was a bit out of the ordinary, it was still very obvious for it to increase his fighting strength. Most importantly, there were no conflicts between the two.

At the same time, on Li Mu's Primordial Spirit Embryo, black magic prints were quickly corroding it, as though they wanted to take over the entire Primordial Spirit Embryo. Furthermore, the golden Sanskrit words were not easy to mess with, as each and every one of them released a bright gold light, although it did not take the initiative to attack, it still protected its own land, forcing the incoming black magic prints back.

Because the golden spirit already had Li Mu's majority of his consciousness existing, it was no different from Li Mu himself. Looking at the battle between the two types of cultivation techniques on his body, he felt like fighting to the death.

Li Mu thought about it again and again, then suddenly recalled that ever since the Sky Demons had passed down the cultivation technique, his new version of Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations had undergone huge changes, and compared to the original Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations, it was much more terrifying. According to the Sky Demons, his teaching seemed to be the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations that was truly suitable for Li Mu, and the level of his cultivation technique could not be compared to the normal top grade Sky level techniques.

"I got it. In the past, although the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations was a small level higher than the Great Brahma Art, it was still a mid-grade heaven rank cultivation technique, so I was barely able to contend against it, and was able to maintain a corresponding balance within my body."

"But now, the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations is no longer the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations of the past. It might even be a cultivation technique of the Immortal-ranked. In addition, because I was about to give up my physical body, I transferred most of the magic attribute true essence from my physical body into my elementary spirit embryo.

Li Mu quickly figured out the crux of the problem, but he felt extremely helpless. Furthermore, he had left a part of his consciousness inside his body to clearly feel that his own body was more than half occupied by the yin and yang energy, if not for the fact that the vitality of his body was still considered strong and he was struggling with his life on the line, he would have died long ago.

"Are these two cultivation techniques really unable to be fused together?" Should I really abandon one of them? If that's the case, then all the years of hard work I've gone through will be wasted! "

Li Mu knew that he did not have much time remaining, and the final step of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage would be to allow his spirit to return to his body and merge with his flesh, only then would he be able to absorb all the spirit energy left in his body, and only then would he be considered to have succeeded in breaking through the Profound Opening Realm.

Li Mu thought about it, and only had one way left, which was to either dissipate the Great Brahma Art or the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations's True Essence, one of the two cultivation methods. At that time, he would no longer have to dual cultivate with the Buddha, but this choice was very hard for Li Mu to choose.

From the rank of the cultivation technique, Li Mu naturally chose the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations instead. After all, the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations itself was a top grade heaven rank cultivation technique, and adding on the fact that the Heavenly Demon technique was much stronger than the middle grade heaven rank Great Brahma Art, the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations, in the end, was just a body tempering cultivation technique. Although it was different from other normal body tempering cultivation techniques, the thing that was important was the fleshly body, and although Li Mu desired to walk the path of flesh becoming a saint, he did not want to give up on the path of cultivation.

Body cultivation focused on training the body, tempering the muscles, bones, flesh, and strengthening the vital energy and blood. The body was the most powerful spirit treasure, and once cultivated to the peak, the body could become a saint.

Cultivation of the Dao was mainly to train the primordial spirit and strengthen the soul to comprehend the natural laws of the world. Using the power of the world to unleash a divine ability, one could master a part of the natural laws of the world and thus roam the world.

Li Mu had also heard from the others that whether it was cultivation or body tempering, there was not much difference between them in the end. It was just like how two people going to the same destination at the same time, one was on a horse, and the other was on a boat. Although the methods were different, the destination was the same.

Right now, Li Mu was whether he should ride a horse or take a boat. Although he didn't think that he would be able to reach the end, he had to choose between two paths.

"Can't we really merge together? It's all the fault of that damned old dog Peng Kun, who caused my yin and yang energy to enter his body, causing me to have to abandon my physical body today. Helpless, I had no choice but to merge the two different types of and Great Brahma Art's true essence into my source spirit, if my body was unharmed, I would have scattered the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations's demonic true essence into my flesh, and such a thing would not have happened! "

After hesitating for a long time, Li Mu was still unable to make a choice. Once he chose the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations, he had to quickly find a body that he could use and try to possess it, if not his Source Spirit would quickly dissipate, because pure body cultivation did not have a source spirit to speak of, so all of his true essence would return to his body.

However, for Li Mu to give up on the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations and choose to cultivate it, although it would save his life, it meant that he had to give up on the Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations.

Right at this moment, Li Mu suddenly saw the God Slaughtering Worm that was still circling around him in the air protecting him.

"Damn it!" How could I have forgotten this! This is too stupid, too stupid! Although this yin and yang power is powerful, how could it be able to fight against my treasured God Slaughtering Insects that can't devour anything, hahaha! "

Li Mu suddenly laughed out loud, following that, he used his consciousness and transferred the five Deicide worm over.

Li Mu gave an order to the five Deicide worm s, and the bodies of the five Deicide worm rapidly shrunk from the size of an adult fist to the size of a mung bean.

The shrunk Deicide worm under Li Mu's control rushed straight to Li Mu's body, and very quickly arrived in front of his flesh body. Furthermore, under Li Mu's orders, it left five small bloody holes on Li Mu's body, and then crawled into his flesh …
