Chapter 310 310 Crazy Evolution II
'Nine Netherworld Fragrance (This fragrance allows the recipient's mind to naturally exude a mysterious aroma. This fragrance can permanently nourish the recipient's mind, causing it to grow naturally over time at a rate of 1 unit per day. Note: The mental strength of an adult human at their peak energy level is set to a value of 1.)'
The Frosty Palace Incense (This allows the recipient to release a special fragrance evenly throughout their body and mind. All living beings entering a certain range will suffer a 30% indiscriminate slowing effect. The slowing effect ignores differences in cultivation level and only depends on the strength of the living being's mental resistance.)
Formless Demonic Fragrance (This fragrance can make the recipient's body and mind exude a subtle and pleasant aroma. This fragrance can also make the recipient invisible, allowing them to freely enter and exit the sea of consciousness and the Milky Way of memory.)
Note:
The ocean of consciousness (originating from the boundless ocean formed by the convergence of the consciousness of all living beings).
The Milky Way of Memory (The historical traces once etched into the world have not disappeared; they will slowly fade and crumble with the passage of time, but this fading may take a very, very long time.)
"Um"
As a righteous person, although Lin Hui disliked the word "demon," he couldn't resist the fact that the Demon Incense Sect option was just too useful.
Based on this description, the Demonic Palace of the Demonic Incense Sect is located in the sea of consciousness at the boundary between reality and illusion, which means it is not any location in reality at all. It is a perfect place of refuge.
Whether it's seeking refuge or escaping, it far surpasses the other options.
Secondly, the three types of demonic incense have different abilities. The first one, Nine Nether, can enhance mental strength without cultivation, making it perfect for family and loved ones.
The second Cold Palace skill ignores realm restrictions and forcibly slows down the enemy's speed, making it quite powerful.
The third one, Wuxiang, is an escape artifact. When encountering an opponent you can't defeat, you can directly use Wuxiang to escape into your mind's sea of consciousness.
"In other words, if I encounter someone I can't defeat in reality, I can escape to my mental sea. If I encounter someone with a strong mental state, I also have the confidence from the Nine Nether Amplification. This is true for my Qingfeng Dao martial arts now. Many of Qingfeng Dao's martial arts, from Qingfeng to Kuangfeng to Typhoon Star Breath, are purely physical attacks, with sufficient destructive power and range. They are also extremely fast, more than enough for escaping. The only weakness is actually the mental aspect. This last one, the Demon Fragrance Sect, seems to have a very powerful background; they should be able to withstand the Seven Annihilations without any problem."
"I'll choose this one!" Lin Hui no longer hesitated. Compared to the obscure and vague description of the Fengyin Sect, he had been fooled before. This kind of seemingly ordinary and mediocre option often hides a very troublesome hidden danger.
So this time he did the opposite and chose the option that sounded very strong and exaggerated.
He glanced at the required resources and time.
Required resources: 300 years of accumulating physical strength, 300 years of accumulating mental strength.
Time required: 800 years.
Lin Hui paused slightly in his breathing.
This age limit truly befits a large-scale secondary evolution that can enhance the entire sect.
Without a large amount of precious medicine as a foundation, he really wouldn't dare to take this plunge.
But now, without hesitation.
'Should we evolve into the Demon Incense Sect?' Blood Seal asked in a flash.
"Yes!" Lin Hui replied decisively.
In a flash, the bloodstain below the field of vision began to rapidly display countdown information.
Lin Hui reached out and grabbed a new ten-thousand-year-old Lingzhi mushroom, which flew into his hand. A normal Lingzhi mushroom would last for at most four months, but one that was over a thousand years old would last for two years, and one that was ten thousand years old would last for about ten years.
800 years may seem like a long time, but in reality, it's nothing compared to the vast array of precious medicines available!
Lin Hui stuffed the ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum into his mouth in one gulp. He didn't have time to maximize its medicinal effects and refine it into a pill. He couldn't even finish it by just stuffing it into his mouth.
As he continuously consumed one precious herb after another, his exceptionally strong physique rapidly absorbed and digested their effects. Simultaneously, a large amount of waste, toxins, and impurities were expelled from his body through his pores, swept up by the wind, turned into ash, and drifted out of the palace.
Time passed slowly, and two days went by in the blink of an eye.
Lin Hui's eyes flashed, and a dark purple light instantly swept across his pupils.
hiss.
At the same time, three different purplish-red patterns flashed across his chest, which was covered by his robes, before disappearing one by one.
Those are the three types of Heart Source Demon Incense that only the sect leaders of the Demon Incense Sect are qualified to master.
Not only that, Lin Hui stretched out his hand, and a wisp of translucent flame composed of countless tiny purple light particles rose from his palm.
puff.
He clenched his fist suddenly, and sparks burst forth, overflowing from his palm.
The next moment, he was surrounded by a flash, and he was no longer in the Zhenlong Divine Palace.
Instead, they stood in front of a four-story Chinese-style pavilion.
A plaque hangs above the main gate of the pavilion: Xinyuan Palace.
The three large characters on the plaque were not any of the languages he recognized, but strangely, he could understand their meaning at a glance.
Lin Hui looked around and found himself standing on a flat stone slab ground covered with broken marks.
Behind me were long, gray steps that sloped downwards and disappeared into the purplish-black mist, with no end in sight.
Both sides were enveloped in an endless purplish-black mist, making it impossible to see anything.
creak.
Just as he hesitated, the door of the pavilion in front of him slowly opened from being tightly closed to opening outwards.
The open door revealed mottled, blackened gray floor tiles inside.
In the center of the floor tiles stood a black and gold high-backed chair. Seated crookedly in the chair was a skeleton that had long since turned to white bones.
The remains were enormous, measuring three meters in height, and the chair was also quite large.
He had three pairs of bony wings on his back, two pairs of four eyeholes on his face, and obvious signs of fracture in his skull—clearly, this was the true cause of death. Lin Hui stood silently for a while, making sure he sensed no danger, before stepping forward and entering the pavilion.
Click.
Suddenly, a soft sound.
The skeleton on the seat actually moved slightly.
"A newcomer?" The white-boned man raised his head slightly, and his four black eye sockets stared straight at Lin Hui.
"You can talk?" Lin Hui squinted.
Since obtaining the Blood Seal, the evolved creature has even come with a talking creature, something he never expected.
"Why can't I speak? I've been locked up in this godforsaken place for who knows how many years. Finally, a new person has arrived!" The skeleton grinned, revealing what appeared to be a smile.
"Back then, I was arrogant and acted rashly, daring to break into the Heart Source Demon Palace. As a result, I was locked up here by that old demon Wuxiang for who knows how many years. Now my physical body has been annihilated, and my mind is like a flickering candle. If no one comes, I'm afraid I will truly be completely annihilated and disappear."
Lin Hui remained silent as he entered the first level of the Heart Source Demon Palace, looking around.
The walls were covered with densely packed characters resembling scriptures, interspersed with numerous purplish-red veins that looked like blood vessels. Inside some of these veins, tiny particles and insects, resembling insect eggs, could be vaguely seen through the translucent walls, flowing and churning with the unknown purple liquid within.
"This place is very eerie; I advise you to stay away from it," the skeleton said again. "Quickly, get me off this chair. Once I've regained some of my strength, I can take you away from this demonic abyss!"
Lin Hui ignored him. He walked around the entire floor with his hands behind his back.
Aside from the strange white bones, the only thing on the first floor was something that looked like an altar, without even tables and chairs.
On the ceiling were some colorful human figures, all of them effeminate and beautiful, their genders indistinguishable, dressed in long robes, and depicting various stories of them subduing monsters.
"This godforsaken place, let me tell you, if you stay here too long you might go crazy," White Bone continued to persuade Lin Hui when he ignored him.
"This place is located in the Sea of Consciousness, and you know what kind of place this is. The consciousness of all living beings can stir up strange and terrifying things at any time. In addition, this Heart Source Demon Palace itself is guarded by invisible celestial demons. What if they discover you?"
"An invisible demon?" Lin Hui asked in surprise. "What is that?"
This wasn't in the blood seal infusion information he received from the Heart Source Demon Palace.
"Those are native monsters from the sea of consciousness attracted by the Heart Source Demon Palace. They were already very strong, but their will was awakened by the fragrance of the Demon Palace, so they voluntarily became the guardians of this place," White Bone explained.
"Interesting." Lin Hui chuckled, surprised that this evolution offered a buy-one-get-one-free deal. "Thanks for reminding me. By the way, do you have a name?"
"Just call me Fusheng," the skeleton replied. "And you?"
"I founded the Qingfeng Dao, you can call me Daoist Master Lin." Lin Hui was unwilling to reveal his real name.
"Quite the airs." Bai Gu Fusheng laughed. "Since you're so confident, you can go to the second floor. The Invisible Heavenly Demon is stationed there. There's a Heart Source Immortal Demon Diagram on the second floor, which is extremely helpful to demonic cultivators. It's been there constantly comprehending and cultivating."
"How powerful is the Invisible Heavenly Demon?" Lin Hui asked.
"How strong?" Fu Sheng was suddenly stunned, as if he only realized now that he didn't know where Lin Hui came from.
"Where did you come from?"
“Black Cloud City,” Lin Hui replied.
"Never heard of any realm?" Fusheng asked again.
"???" Lin Hui was stunned.
Seeing him freeze in shock, Bai Gu Fusheng visibly panicked.
"Wait a minute. You're not some insectoid being who doesn't even know what realm you're in, are you!?"
"Insect people? What do you mean? Explain yourself!" Lin Hui keenly sensed that he had been humiliated, his expression calmed down, and he stared at the other party.
"Most living beings cannot reach the spatial limits of their own world, so naturally they don't know the name of their world. Names are for others to use. If there were only one world, there would be no need for a name; simply calling it 'world' would suffice. But..."
Fusheng paused for a moment.
"There are many worlds, and each has developed its own name to distinguish itself. Therefore, only after breaking through the limits and transcending boundaries, and coming into contact with other boundary-breaking powerhouses, can one learn the name of their own world. And among the boundary-breaking powerhouses, all beings who have not reached the boundary-breaking level are collectively called Insect People."
Lin Hui was somewhat silent after receiving so much information all at once.
He didn't know whether what the other party said was true or false, but such trivial information actually had no reason to be false.
"That's right, I am indeed the insectoid you described."
He answered in a deep voice.
"The outer sea of consciousness is extremely dangerous. How did you get here?!" Now it was White Bone Floating Life's turn to be puzzled.
Just as Lin Hui was about to answer, a faint sound of footsteps came from the corner of the staircase leading to the second floor.
"Oh no, the Invisible Heavenly Demon is here! Run! Get out of here!!" Fu Sheng trembled and hurriedly patted the armrest of his chair to urge them on.
