Chapter 276: The Lord of the Twin Caves
"Master, the ghost realm has become so big now, and I finally broke through the barrier set up by that aunt, I mean sister, and talked to you directly."
The moment after the ghost realm was promoted, the voice of the tree spirit sounded in Fang Chen’s mind.
You can tell that his tone is very excited.
In fact, he didn't need to explain. Fang Chen's life soul and heavenly soul were both in the ghost realm. The previous promotion to the ghost realm severed the synchronization of their consciousness.
Now that the promotion is complete, consciousness synchronization has been restored.
Fang Chen has already seen the changes in the ghost realm.
In fact, long before the promotion, the ghost domain had become extremely huge because it continued to absorb souls from the Starry Sea.
When it was promoted to the Cave Heaven, in terms of the size of the space alone, it was already comparable to the current Five Elements Cave Heaven.
This promotion directly doubled its space to four times its original size.
Moreover, unlike the Five Elements Cave Heaven, all kinds of souls roam around here, and the tree spirits have mastered the method of making ghost weapons, and have built Ghost King Palaces and Ghost Spirit Platforms everywhere.
Anyway, there is plenty of evil spirit energy in the ghost realm, so this little bit of consumption is not a big deal.
However, as its area expanded, the ghost domain encountered a situation similar to that of the Five Elements Cave Heaven, that is, the spiritual energy of Yin was increasing, but its concentration was decreasing.
It's not surprising. The land area of the Five Elements Cave Heaven is already more than 50 square kilometers, and it is supported by only one first-grade superior spiritual vein. Although it can absorb spiritual energy from the outside world for replenishment, it is just a drop in the bucket.
Not to mention the ghost realm, the land area reaches 200 square kilometers, and there is an equally vast ocean of yin energy. The yin spiritual energy requires the combination of yin energy and spiritual energy. The souls that constantly enter the ghost realm can provide yin energy, while the spiritual energy can only rely on external supplies.
As a result, the negative energy in the ghost realm today has obviously affected the spiritual energy, resulting in a surplus of negative energy.
For ghost cultivators, the effect of Yin Ling Qi is obviously stronger than Yin Qi, otherwise Yin Ling Qi would not be able to attract so many souls.
The problem of the Five Elements Cave Heaven is easy to solve. We just need to create a few more spirit veins.
Not to mention that the seeds of the five fairy peach trees have already sprouted. It will take only a few days for them to grow roots and then be transplanted to the spiritual field.
By then, it will be equivalent to five spiritual veins.
But the problem of the ghost realm is not so easy to solve, and we can only rely on the supply of spiritual energy from the outside world.
"No, the Yin energy in the ghost realm also comes from new souls and is not stable..."
The soul staying in the core space looked at the incarnation outside the body. It was quite a novel experience.
I didn’t think there was anything wrong before, but now that it has become a cave, it is still unable to produce Yin spiritual energy on its own, which will definitely leave hidden dangers in the future.
"Master, don't worry about the Yin Qi. After you were promoted to the Ghost Realm, the excess Yin Qi in the Ghost Realm has formed a second-level high-quality Yin Meridian, which can generate Yin Qi on its own."
The tree spirit also heard Fang Chen's concerns and directly delivered good news.
"Oh? Doesn't that mean that we can plant true spirit fruits in the ghost realm?"
Speaking of Yin Meridians, the first thing Fang Chen thought of was not the self-generated Yin Qi, but the main ingredient of the Foundation Establishment Pill - the True Spirit Fruit.
If you want the Foundation Establishment Pill to be independent, you must be able to grow the True Spirit Fruit on your own.
Unfortunately, there are no Yin Veins in Yuehua Fairy City, so it does not meet the conditions for growing the True Spirit Fruit.
"No, the cultivation of true spirit fruit requires spirit veins, which the ghost realm may not be able to provide."
However, Fang Chen soon remembered another condition for growing the True Spirit Fruit and shook his head regretfully.
“Master, Master, the ghost realm is already a cave heaven. Of course, we can also create spiritual veins in it, which can be used to grow true spiritual fruits.”
The tree spirit spoke again. Although he was not the master of the ghost realm cave heaven, he was also one of the foundations of the cave heaven and knew the ghost realm inside and out.
Fang Chen now feels that the Five Elements Cave Heaven is developing so slowly probably because it lacks a manager like the tree spirit.
It might be better to wait until your soul merges with the core of the Five Elements Cave Heaven and let your soul manage the Five Elements Cave Heaven.
Thinking of this, he curiously asked the tree spirit: "Speaking of which, what is the core of the ghost domain cave? Has any innate spiritual creature been born?"
"Uh... Master, the birth of innate spiritual creatures requires the combination of yin and yang to produce innate energy. The main body of the Five Elements Cave Heaven is your spiritual root, which is closely related to you. Naturally, it is also affected by the Yin-Yang Five Elements Secret. The Ghost Domain Cave Heaven is not so lucky, but the core of the cave heaven is easy to find, that is, me, and these eighteen Yin Ling locust trees."
"Yin Ling Locust Tree?" Upon hearing this, the incarnation immediately released spiritual thoughts and touched the surrounding locust trees.
Name: Yinling Sophora japonica
Level: Second level upper grade
Features: Yin spirit space
Yin Ling Space: Contains the initial one-inch Yin Ling Space, which absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and transforms it into Yin Ling power within the space; Yin Ling power nourishes souls without physical bodies and can attract them into the Yin Ling space. The souls in the Yin Ling space will wash away the murderous aura and memories of their previous lives, and turn into nutrients for the growth of the Yin Ling space.
"Nothing has changed. Besides, the eighteen Yinling locust trees are the core of the cave. How can the external incarnation merge with the core of the cave and become the master of the cave?"
Fang Chen said there was no major change, referring to the features and their introduction.
The grade of the Yinling locust tree was upgraded from the second-grade lower grade to the second-grade upper grade.
Some of them even reached the lower third grade.
However, the grade of the Ghost Domain Yin Huai is determined according to the lowest grade Yin Ling Huai tree, so it is currently only a second-grade upper grade.
"Ah, I see."
Thinking of the Yin Huai tree in the ghost realm, Fang Chen instantly had an idea.
Wouldn’t the eighteen Yin Ling locust trees combined together form the Yin Locust Tree of the Ghost Realm?
Fang Chen was a man of action. He directly let the earth soul leave his external incarnation, left the ghost realm through the Yinling locust tree, and appeared in the dantian of his original body.
He aimed at the ghost tree next to the spiritual root and ran headfirst into it.
Successfully came up empty-handed.
"what--"
The Earth Soul passed through the Yin Huai Tree in the Ghost Domain, and because of its extremely fast speed, it also rushed directly out of the Dantian and came out of Fang Chen's body.
Ling Mengqiu was also frightened when she saw the soul rushing towards her.
A sword intent instinctively wanted to counterattack, but fortunately Ling Mengqiu had amazing talent, and seeing that the soul's face was somewhat similar to Fang Chen, he forced the sword intent back.
"What are you doing?"
Zhu Yueyao looked at Fang Chen. They were clearly discussing going to the Star-Moon Sea to capture monsters just now, so how come he summoned the Earth Soul in the blink of an eye?
"It was purely an accident. I was planning to merge the Earth Soul with the core of the Ghost Realm Cave Heaven..."
Fang Chen briefly explained the whole story.
"Pfft~ Who told you that fusion requires collision? I will pass the corresponding spell to you, you can see for yourself."
After hearing this, Zhu Yueyao laughed so hard that she fell over, and Yue Yunni couldn't help laughing either.
Only Yue Liuli and Ling Mengqiu didn't know what was going on. They looked at each other and shook their heads.
Although she was laughing, Zhu Yueyao did not forget to teach Fang Chen the specific method of becoming the Lord of the Cave Heaven.
Fang Chen touched his nose, closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then he understood.
The so-called fusion does not happen naturally when they collide with each other, but rather, the core of the cave must be refined into one's own body in the cave to carry the soul.
Of course, for cultivators whose three souls have not yet fully gathered in the body, or who have more than three cave heavens, a part of their spiritual consciousness needs to be cut off, and the physical body is also used to carry this part of the spiritual consciousness.
In other words, under normal circumstances, one must at least practice to the Purple Mansion Stage before becoming the master of the Cave Heaven.
But in fact, cave heavens are extremely rare, and probably only the best among the Nascent Soul cultivators or Golden Core cultivators can possess them.
Fang Chen had just established his foundation not long ago, but he was able to control two caves. If he told others about it, they would definitely be envious.
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, let the earth soul return to the ghost realm cave heaven, and at the same time let the life soul enter the five elements cave heaven.
He planned to carry out the process of integration simultaneously.
In one fell swoop, he became the master of the Twin Cave Heavens.
This is the first update today, there will be another one to come.
