"Thank you, Ancestor."
Receiving another large bundle of 'origin,' Lin Yuan immediately expressed his gratitude.
Lin Yuan's gratitude was indeed heartfelt. In the past five transmigrations, he had mostly relied on himself, even when he became the young master of an Immortal Sect during his fifth transmigration.Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com
Most of the resources Lin Yuan needed for cultivation also depended on his Yin and Yang spirits venturing outside.
However, now, as long as Lin Yuan complained, the Ancestor Demonic Tree would risk depletion to actively send over the origin.
Of course, Lin Yuan was also aware that the Ancestor Demonic Tree's actions were entirely self-serving.
As long as it successfully descended into the Azure World, he would likely be the first to die.
Over the years, the Ancestor Demonic Tree had invested a significant amount of origin in him, which naturally needed to be recovered.
However, just as the Ancestor Demonic Tree considered devouring Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan also considered devouring the Ancestor Demonic Tree.
At present, the existence of the Ancestor Demonic Tree was far more beneficial than detrimental to Lin Yuan.
It was equivalent to an inexhaustible treasure trove for cultivation.
In addition, Lin Yuan had already used sealing techniques to resolve the control of the Ancestor Demonic Tree over the offspring Demonic Tree, eliminating even basic hidden dangers.
"Keep cultivating diligently."
"Grow to the Fifth Stage as soon as possible."
The spiritual fluctuations emitted by the Ancestor Demonic Tree carried an encouraging tone, as if gently instructing a respectful elder.
The growth of the Demonic Tree was different from that of normal cultivators.
It was divided into stages.
Specifically, the First Stage, Second Stage, Third Stage, and so on.
The Ancestor Demonic Tree itself was in the Eighth Stage, a powerful evil god that traversed the outer realms.
The offspring Demonic Tree was a continuation of the Ancestor Demonic Tree, with an inexplicable connection between the two.
As long as the offspring Demonic Tree grew to the Fifth Stage, its life essence would be sufficient to establish a 'space channel' with the Ancestor Demonic Tree.
At that time, the Ancestor Demonic Tree would be able to enter the Azure World through another method.
This was also the ultimate plan of the Ancestor Demonic Tree. With the current situation, forcefully entering the Azure World was not realistic.
"Rest assured, Ancestor."
"I will do my best to grow."
"The glory of the Ancestor will soon envelop this world. At that time, all living beings will submit to the Ancestor's feet."
Lin Yuan was also painting a rosy picture for the Ancestor Demonic Tree.
There was no other way. If the Ancestor Demonic Tree now abandoned the Azure World and ran away, Lin Yuan could only watch helplessly.
So he had to keep the Ancestor Demonic Tree hooked as much as possible, making it believe that hope was within reach, coupled with the 'costs' formed by many early investments.
Only then could he firmly bind the Ancestor Demonic Tree outside the world.
"This is natural."
"As long as I can occupy this world, I can give you freedom and let you become a new god."
The Ancestor Demonic Tree said seriously.
In fact, the Ancestor Demonic Tree had no intention of letting Lin Yuan live.
What a joke, after consuming so much of my origin, you still want to live?
But some things couldn't be said so directly. Even facing the offspring Demonic Tree, his mere thought could decide its life or death.
Some lip service was necessary.
And so, the two trees with different intentions severed their connection.
In the deepest part of the Black Mist Mountain Range.
Lin Yuan pondered the information revealed by the Ancestor Demonic Tree just now.
"The Fifth Stage."
Lin Yuan pondered in his heart. The growth of the Demonic Tree was different from cultivation; it was related to strength but not entirely dependent on it.
For example, now that Lin Yuan already had Seventh Rank strength, he still remained at the Sixth Stage in the growth stage of the Demonic Tree.
"With the barrier of the world and my own breath concealment, the Ancestor Demonic Tree cannot perceive which stage I have grown to."
Lin Yuan secretly thought that the Azure World had a high awareness of the Ancestor Demonic Tree. Decades ago, in order to open a gap in the barrier of the Azure World to sow the seeds of the Demonic Tree, the Ancestor Demonic Tree had paid a great price.
Since then, the Azure World's vigilance against the Ancestor Demonic Tree had reached a new level.
Therefore, the Ancestor Demonic Tree's perception of Lin Yuan was actually very limited. Coupled with the many breath-concealing techniques Lin Yuan had comprehended, it was virtually foolproof.
"On the battlefield outside the world, the Azure Alliance has recently been victorious one after another."
Lin Yuan's gaze shifted towards a certain direction, where countless Azure Alliance powerhouses were locked in battle with demonic puppets.
It wasn't surprising to Lin Yuan that the Azure Alliance had gained the upper hand on the battlefield.
Over the past decade, the Ancestor Demonic Tree had 'supported' him with countless amounts of its own origin power. This had led to a decline in strength and a reduction in the number of demonic puppets he could summon.
Strictly speaking, although Lin Yuan was the offspring of the Ancestor Demonic Tree, he still contributed to the Azure World by reducing the Ancestor Demonic Tree's power.
Outside the world, as the Azure Alliance gained the advantage, Lin Yuan was credited with the achievement.
Outside the Azure World, the towering figure of the Ancestor Demonic Tree stood amidst the void, countless vines swaying, and a terrifying demonic domain spreading in all directions.
"Where am I?"
This demon beast king was the Monkey King. After being unconscious for so long, it now woke up, momentarily disoriented.
"Huh?"
"No, this isn't right."
Just a few breaths later, the Monkey King realized the situation and immediately became nervous.
Turning its head, it saw itself under the horrifying ancient tree, sending a shiver down its spine.
The Monkey King instinctively tried to flee but found that it was permeated with a sinister power, making even the slightest movement extremely difficult, let alone running?
As the Monkey King pondered whether to speak a few words, a grayish seed fell from a branch and swiftly approached it.
"What is that?"
Though unable to move, the Monkey King instinctively sensed danger.
Buzz.
The grayish seed fell straight onto the Monkey King's forehead, then rapidly grew and rooted itself into the Monkey King's forehead.
"Ah!"
The Monkey King let out a painful roar. At this moment, it felt as if its head had exploded, and its consciousness began to blur.
"This seed... Is it trying to replace me?"
A wave of terror surged in the Monkey King's heart.
The grayish seed was currently rooting itself in the depths of its consciousness, slowly displacing its original consciousness, attempting to take over its mind.
"No!"
"I don't want this!"
The Monkey King struggled violently.
Compared to being replaced, complete death was a relief.
The Monkey King struggled frantically, gathering the last remnants of its consciousness, and charged towards the demonic seed.
However, unfortunately....
As the Monkey King, its entire body was suppressed by Lin Yuan's power at this moment. How could it resist the demonic seed with just a bit of remaining consciousness?
Just half a day later, the Monkey King's consciousness completely dissipated.
The parasitism of the demonic seed was successful.
Outside, Lin Yuan observed the changes in the Monkey King.
"Master."
At this moment, the Monkey King slowly crawled up from the ground and bowed slightly to Lin Yuan.
"The parasitism was successful."
Lin Yuan could clearly sense the aura of the demonic seed emanating from the depths of the Monkey King's mind.
"Master, I now possess all the memories and abilities of the Monkey King."
The Monkey King began to report.
Half an hour later, Lin Yuan sent the Monkey King away.
Now, the Monkey King had been replaced by the demonic seed, and there was no need to worry about loyalty.
"Not bad."
Lin Yuan nodded slightly.
By observing the reactions of the replaced Monkey King, as long as he paid more attention, it would be basically indistinguishable from the original Monkey King.
At least it was much better than the initial state, where the parasitized life would be vacant-eyed and stiff in movement.
Now, the demonic seed not only perfectly integrated into the host's body but also gained access to all of its memories.
It was almost able to achieve a level of deception.
"But there are still some flaws."
"Continue to improve."
After pondering for a while, Lin Yuan planned to spend the next time improving and perfecting with his extraordinary insight.
The reason why Lin Yuan devoted so much effort to parasitism was to prepare for the subsequent dissemination of martial arts.
Unfortunately, the image of the Demonic Tree was not favorable, so Lin Yuan needed to find some 'spokespersons.' These 'spokespersons' had to be absolutely loyal to Lin Yuan, which perfectly matched the parasitic ability of the demonic seed.
"Martial arts."
Lin Yuan's thoughts surged. Despite being limited by the Demonic Tree itself, everything he did now was paving the way for martial arts, and disseminating the path of martial arts evolution was the main plan for the next few hundred years.
"Let's continue cultivating."
Lin Yuan's mind immersed in cultivation, and his aura became increasingly terrifying, like an unfathomable ocean.
No one knew, including the invincible leader of the Azure Alliance and the Ancestor Demonic Tree.
In the seemingly 'absolutely safe' rear of the Azure World, changes were occurring that could potentially overturn the current situation.
