Liu Bai sat cross legged as his consciousness sank into the Sovereign Sea. His tiny divine soul once again arrived before the Immortal True Form Diagram Scroll.
"This time I am only sealing a Lighting Python without intelligence. It should not drain me dry like before…" he muttered softly. As his divine soul spoke, his hands rapidly formed seals, and the calm Sovereign Sea below suddenly surged with enormous waves.
Crash crash crash.
The waves roared as the Immortal True Form Diagram Scroll began to tremble. The scroll slowly opened a narrow gap.
Five colored divine radiance spread out from within the scroll. Threads of energy were drawn out and directly merged into the void above the Sovereign Sea.
In the outside world, an extremely profound aura suddenly erupted from Liu Bai's body. The Nether Demon Heart Lightning Python that had been staring at Jiu You seemed to sense a massive danger. It immediately let out a ghostly thunder shriek, attempting to interrupt Liu Bai's operation.
This did affect Liu Bai to some extent. However, the Five Element sealing power within the Immortal True Form Diagram had already been drawn out. With the protection of the Undying Flame and the Five Element Divine origin source within his body, the thunder sound caused him no real harm.
At this moment, Jiu You who had long been prepared instantly took action. Her wings beat behind her as her figure vanished with a whoosh, appearing ghostlike above the Formless Lighting Python. With a shake of her spear, overwhelming spear radiance swept downward.
Every strand of spear radiance carried attached violet flames. Even though the Lighting Python was formless and intangible, it still suffered terrifying damage.
In an instant, a massive tail suddenly descended from the sky at lightning speed, sweeping away all the spear radiance.
However, the Lighting Python no longer had time to concern itself with Liu Bai. Jiu You had also brought it tremendous pressure. Acting on instinct, it launched another assault against her.
Bursts of thunder echoed continuously. Although they could not cause substantial harm to Jiu You, they delayed her movements each time. Taking advantage of this, the Formless Lighting Python launched relentless attacks. For a moment, Jiu You was completely suppressed and fell entirely into a disadvantage.
At this time, Liu Bai opened his eyes. His gaze locked onto the Formless Lighting Python. He formed a hand seal, and in an instant, five enormous phantom figures appeared behind him.
Each phantom had a different appearance, yet all carried the same supreme and exalted authority. Their divine eyes fixed upon the Formless Lighting Python, causing it to emit a terrified wail.
"The Five Emperors Divine Art Seal!"
Liu Bai paid no attention to its cries for mercy and directly activated the sealing power.
As a peak peerless Divine Ability, even though Liu Bai was only borrowing a millionth of its power, it rendered the Formless Lighting Python completely unable to resist. This was a creature capable of suppressing a peak Fifth Grade Sovereign Divine Beast like Jiu You the Netherworld Sparrow.
Five chains of different colors shot out violently from the five phantoms, tearing into the Formless Lighting Python and dragging it rapidly into the bodies of the phantoms.
Boom! Boom!
At this moment, the Formless Lighting Python seemed to sense impending doom and began struggling frantically. Terrifying Nether Demon Heart Lightning explosions erupted one after another, violently distorting the surrounding space.
Unfortunately, this still could not stop its body from being forcibly sealed by the chains. In the end, everything returned to silence.
The five phantoms vanished, along with the sealed Formless Lighting Python. Only a shattered stone stele remained at the original location.
"Where is the Nether Demon Heart Lightning Python?" Jiu You flew to Liu Bai's side and asked while looking at the dissipated phantoms.
"In my Sovereign Sea space," Liu Bai replied softly.
Jiu You's eyes widened slightly, and she immediately gave Liu Bai a thumbs up.
"Very good. That takes guts."
"Aren't you afraid that thing will break free from the seal and wreak havoc inside your Sovereign Sea space?"
Given the strength the Formless Lighting Python had displayed, if it truly escaped the seal, it would likely destroy Liu Bai's Sovereign Sea entirely. At that point, not even a god could save him.
"Relax. That kind of thing will never happen," Liu Bai said confidently.
The reason for his confidence was the presence of the Immortal True Form Diagram, a Primordial Sacred Object, within his Sovereign Sea. Liu Bai knew very well that once anything entered his Sovereign Sea, whether dragon or tiger, it had to submit.
Even if a remnant soul of a Demon Emperor barged in, it would still get slapped twice.
"As long as you know what you're doing," Jiu You said, not pressing further. She then glanced at the shattered stone stele and asked, "So, are you going to learn it?"
Liu Bai nodded. "Since the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture is this powerful, there's no reason for me not to learn it."
Jiu You nodded in response.
"Although the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture recorded here is incomplete, I estimate it is at least equivalent to a Quasi-Perfect Rank Divine Art.. That is already quite impressive."
"It's just a pity. The complete Supreme Demon Heart Scripture inherited by the Lightning God Palace is extremely terrifying. It was precisely because of its existence that it's palace master, despite having only a half step Heavenly Sovereign guarding it, managed to rank among the Great Heavenlaw Domain's super powers."
To be called a super power of the Great Heavenlaw Domain, a force must possess at least one Heavenly Sovereign level combatant.
Although the master of the Lighting God Palace was only a half step Heavenly Sovereign, by entering the ultimate Demon Heart state through the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture, he could still contend with a true Heavenly Sovereign level expert.
The reason Liu Bai valued this incomplete Supreme Demon Heart Scripture so highly was precisely because of this Demon Heart state, or rather, what he could achieve should only be called a Lesser Demon Heart state.
Once entering this state, all external interference would be completely shut out. One would enter an almost absolute control state, where every strand of spiritual energy and every ounce of physical strength would be utilized to the extreme.
For others, this meant a massive boost in combat power. But for Liu Bai, it offered another benefit. The ability to construct higher level formations.
At present, Liu Bai's formation attainment was enough to make him a Heavenly Rank Spiritual Array Grandmaster. However, due to limitations in his spiritual energy, even constructing High-Grade Earth Rank arrays was extremely difficult.
If he could enter the Lesser Demon Heart state, he would be able to use his spiritual energy to its absolute limit. At that point, both formation speed and energy consumption would be greatly enhanced. He might even be able to set up high level arrays instantly.
All of this represented an enormous invisible enhancement to Liu Bai, and an extremely significant one.
"The prerequisite for cultivating the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture is mastering the Nether Demon Heart Lightning. So if you want to cultivate it, you should first fuse with the Nether Demon Heart Lightning," Jiu You reminded him.
"And don't think fusing with the Nether Demon Heart Lighting will be easy. You were able to fuse with the Undying Flame before because of the bloodline connection between us, so it never truly erupted. This Nether Demon Heart Lighting, however, will show you no mercy at all."
Liu Bai smiled faintly. "But I'm not who I used to be. I went through all this trouble to obtain it. No matter how difficult it is, I must conquer it."
"Very good. That's real courage."
Jiu You smiled and gave him a thumbs up. "Then I'll be waiting to see your triumphant success."
Hmm…
From her expression, Liu Bai was certain that what she was thinking was definitely not as simple as what she had just said.
In the pitch black space, Liu Bai once again sat cross legged, while Jiu You stood beside him, silently watching his calm face.
As his consciousness sank into the Sovereign Sea space, the five massive Five Emperors phantoms from before had already disappeared. Floating above the Sovereign Sea now was only a gigantic Lightning Python tightly bound by layer upon layer of chains.
This time, Liu Bai's consciousness directly entered his divine soul. The tiny figure immediately appeared before the Lightning Python.
Faint, formless thunder sounds still seemed to echo within his mind. Clearly, even after being sealed, the Lightning Python remained unwilling to submit.
"It cannot be allowed to maintain this form forever. Otherwise, there is no way to act."
With this thought, Liu Bai's tiny divine soul immediately began forming seals. As his hand seals changed, the chains restraining the formless Lightning Python rapidly tightened.
The Lightning Python instantly let out a painful hiss.
Finally, when the chains tightened to their limit, the Lightning Python could no longer endure it. Its body shattered directly into countless strands of formless and intangible Nether Demon Heart Lightning, surging across the Sovereign Sea like a tidal wave, attempting to tear Liu Bai's Sovereign Sea apart.
Boom!
Sensing danger, violet flames immediately blazed fiercely within the Sovereign Sea.
Liu Bai's divine soul had already retreated into the violet flames. With the Undying Flame protecting him, the Nether Demon Heart Lightning could do nothing to him.
Thus, the violet Undying Flame and the overwhelming Nether Demon Heart Lightning confronted each other, occupying upper and lower regions respectively.
Seeing this, Liu Bai's divine soul fell into deep thought. These two forces were of the same tier, yet both were extremely domineering. If placed together, harmony was impossible.
He now had to find a balance point between the two, allowing them to coexist peacefully within his Sovereign Sea.
Of course, this was based on the prerequisite that the Nether Demon Heart Lightning first merged into his spiritual energy.
With that in mind, Liu Bai began weakening the power of the Undying Flame. In the next instant, the previously restrained Nether Demon Heart Lightning erupted violently. Bolts of thunder slammed into the Sovereign Sea, instantly evaporating massive amounts of spiritual energy.
However, although each attack of the Nether Demon Heart Lightning vaporized vast quantities of spiritual energy, the formless lightning that fell into the Sovereign Sea was gradually assimilated and absorbed by the immense spiritual energy of the Sovereign Sea.
This was a long process. Liu Bai relied on the power of the Undying Flame to slow the descent of the densely packed Nether Demon Heart Lightning, buying time for his Sovereign Sea to fuse with and refine the lightning.
Fortunately, he had previously forcefully shattered the Nether Demon Heart Lightning. Otherwise, such a buffer period would have been impossible.
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, ten days had gone by.
At this moment, within Liu Bai's Sovereign Sea space, the formless Nether Demon Heart Lightning occupied half of the domain, pushing the violet Undying Flame into the remaining half.
This still could not be considered complete. Although the two forces had reached a balance, they continued to erode each other. If Liu Bai mobilized one side's spiritual energy, the other would immediately take advantage of the situation. A backlash was very possible.
However, this was not without a solution. The original work had already provided an excellent answer through Mu Chen, which was to use an even stronger force to suppress both.
Mu Chen relied on the Pagoda of the Floating Slaughter, while Liu Bai likewise possessed the Five Element Spirit Talisman he had cultivated.
After such a long period of cultivation, Liu Bai's Five Element Spirit Talisman was still far inferior to the one held by the Five Emperors Divine Sovereign in the past. However, it had already grown considerably. It had merely been kept beside his divine soul all this time.
Moreover, as the Five Element Spirit Talisman continued to grow, Liu Bai had long since reintegrated the Five Element source power previously stored within the Innate Five Spirit Disk back into the talisman. At this moment, his Five Element Spirit Talisman possessed extremely powerful might and held authority over all the spiritual energy within his body.
After all, whether Liu Bai had fused with the Undying Flame or the Nether Demon Heart Lightning, all his spiritual energy was converted through the Innate Five Element Art. The Five Element Spirit Talisman was the foundation of everything. Suppressing these two forces was naturally effortless.
With this thought, Liu Bai's divine soul once again formed seals. Soon, a tiny talisman mark appeared on his forehead.
The moment it appeared, the talisman mark rapidly expanded. In the end, it transformed into a terrifying heavenly curtain that covered the entire Sovereign Sea, slowly descending.
Neither the violet Undying Flame nor the formless Nether Demon Heart Lightning resisted the coverage of the heavenly curtain formed by the Five Element Spirit Talisman. The instant it descended into the Sovereign Sea, the boundary between the two originally distinct forces suddenly twisted.
Like a massive vortex, both the violet flames and the formless lightning were powerless to resist under such overwhelming agitation. They could only follow the general flow and rotate slowly.
Upon closer inspection, one would find that although the two forces seemed to be mixed together, a thin layer of light still separated them.
From this point onward, all spiritual energy cultivated by Liu Bai would be evenly distributed between the two forces through the Five Element Spirit Talisman. When he mobilized one force, the other would remain quietly in its position, neither contacting the opposite side nor seizing territory when the opposing energy weakened.
From now on, Liu Bai could freely mobilize either form of spiritual energy, using as much as he wished without any concern.
It could be said that the potential side effects brought about by these two different energies were completely neutralized by the Five Element Spirit Talisman. This far exceeded Liu Bai's expectations.
The next step, then, was to cultivate the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture. Or rather, to add points to the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture.
As long as something existed on the system recorded panel, no matter how difficult the Divine Art or secret technique was, adding points would easily resolve everything.
Just like now. With more than five million experience points in hand, even a Quasi-Perfect Divine Art like the Supreme Demon Heart Scripture was completely mastered by Liu Bai in the blink of an eye. He could even effortlessly enter the Demon Heart state.
And the cost was merely one hundred thousand experience points.
