Chapter 146: Speculations on Spiritual Power
"Squeak!"

An almost transparent spiritual fire burned fiercely, wrapping a piece of dark golden metal material.

With a gentle wave of her slender hands, tiny spiritual seals melted into the metal, softening it.

"laugh!"

With the spiritual fire and the spirit array working together, the metal melted quickly, and black impurities dripped from it, landing on the ground and corroding tiny holes.

A moment later, a ball of golden liquid appeared and was smeared on the Tianlin Ancient Halberd. The ancient halberd trembled, and the liquid continued to penetrate into it and merged with it.

A hint of dark gold color gradually began to appear on the surface of the dark red ancient halberd. As time passed, the gold color became richer and richer, and the aura of the Tianlin Ancient Halberd became stronger and stronger.

Lin Dong quietly watched Mu Zi's focused expression, taking in her smooth and artistic movements, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Miss Mu is so versatile! It seems like there is nothing she can't do.

"All right!"

Mu Zi stopped moving. In front of her, the Sky Scale Ancient Halberd had completely turned into dark gold color, and a powerful wave emanated from it.

Lin Dong took over the ancient halberd and felt the power of this magic weapon after the upgrade, his heart was filled with amazement.

In his opinion, the upgraded Tianlin Ancient Halberd is actually much stronger than Wang Yan’s Daluo Golden Spear!

Whatever Mu Zi does is bound to be top quality.

"Lin Dong, look at yours."

"What?" Lin Dong was stunned, not understanding what Mu Zi meant.

"Yunshen Futuan, because of this treasure, Hua Zong and his son Hua Gu died in your hands one after another. Now, Yin Kui Zong is completely at odds with you."

Mu Zi spoke calmly, saying something that Lin Dong couldn't understand.

"Hua Gu, wasn't it you who killed him?"

Seeing Mu Zi staring at him expressionlessly, Lin Dong broke out in a cold sweat and quickly changed his words, “Yes, I killed them all.”

Mu Zi nodded then. It was very kind of her to offer a helping hand. Lin Dong should bear the blame himself, after all, it was he who caused the trouble.

Lin Dong took the blame himself, but Mu Zi wanted to share the benefits with him.

"Bring out the Yunshen cushion so I can see it."

"it is good."

Lin Dong took out an ancient yellow cushion. There seemed to be many mysterious runes on the cushion, and faintly, a trace of strange power permeated it.

"The use of this cushion has been discovered. By injecting both Yuan force and spiritual force at the same time and achieving a balance, the two forces can be merged to obtain the power of Yuan Jing."

Mu Zi nodded slightly, took the cushion, and with a thought, he poured his energy and mental power into the cushion at the same time.

"Buzz!"

The next moment, a light flashed, and a fist-sized ball of translucent energy slowly condensed in the center of the cushion.

Seeing this scene, Lin Dong's eyes twitched. He had tried thousands of times before he succeeded, but Mu Zi succeeded in just one try.

She really is worthy of it!

“Is this the power of essence?”

Mu Ziyu waved her hand, and the ball of energy fell into her palm. She observed this ball of translucent chaotic energy with some curiosity in her eyes.

In her perception, this energy had a sense of unity and was far stronger than single elemental force and mental force, which gave her some guesses.

The power of Yuan Jing may be similar to the nature of spiritual power.

People in the world do not cultivate mental power. There is only one basic power in their bodies, and that is spiritual power.

In other words, spiritual power itself contains energy similar to mental power. Perhaps because of this, the status of spiritual power is higher than that of elemental power.

The strong ones from the lower planes will face the "catastrophe of spiritual power" when they ascend to the great world. Perhaps it is because the energy in their bodies is too dispersed and they lack the unified nature of spiritual power.

After ascending, the power in the cultivator's body must be reintegrated into one, so when facing the "catastrophe of spiritual power", they can hardly use the energy in their bodies, and their strength is only one tenth of what it was.

The greatest advantage of the spiritual power of the universe is its ability to integrate various powers.

For example, in the original work, Muchen had integrated the power of the Netherworld Heart Demon Thunder into his spiritual power.

Fu Zu came from the universe, so he was very familiar with the power of fusion. It was no surprise that the Qiankun Ancient Formation he created had the function of fusing energy.

Mu Zi carefully observed the energy of essence in his hand and tried to analyze it, however, it seemed a little difficult.

In the Tianxuan Continent, there are only a few people who can master the power of fusion, and all of them are strong men between heaven and earth. Mu Zi's strength is still too low, and it seems that he is not qualified to comprehend this power.

However, is this really the case?
Don't forget, Mu Zi has now mastered a kind of fusion power, that is the power of the return of heaven and earth to their origin.

This kind of power is the result of the fusion of Yin and Yang energies. That is why its power is so strong, comparable to the ninth-grade martial arts of Creation.

However, the fusion of the two energies of Yin and Yang is not difficult. Every practitioner above the Yuandan realm has experienced the process of Yin and Yang energies.

However, there are probably only a few people who can take advantage of this opportunity to comprehend the power of the fusion of yin and yang.

After Mu Zi pondered for a while, she had some ideas about the power of Yuan Jing, but this idea was not enough for her to successfully integrate this power.

In order to truly master the power of essence, one still lacks some understanding, but this understanding may be available soon.

“Lin Dong, prepare the stone talisman!”

Mu Zi suddenly spoke, startling Lin Dong.

What's going on? They're even using the stone talisman! What is Miss Mu going to do?
"Strange fire, appear!"

The power of returning heaven and earth to their origin surged out from Mu Zi’s hands, and a ball of red-gold flame, emitting blazing waves, appeared in front of Lin Dong’s eyes.

"Miss Mu, don't..."

Mu Zi did not hesitate at all and directly wrapped the Soul-Containing Mat with the strange fire. The blazing fire roasted the ancient yellow mat, making it emit a continuous "crackling" sound.

Seeing that she had already taken action, Lin Dong did not dare to stop her. He could only watch helplessly as Mu Zi treated his treasure "roughly".

Mu Zi turned to look at Lin Dong, and her tone became serious.

"After a while, when the futon breaks, the things inside will appear. You will then need to use the stone talisman to suppress them."

Mu Zi took out all of her Pure Yuan Pills and handed them to Lin Dong, ready to provide energy to the Ancestral Stone at any time.

"please!"

Lin Dong's eyes were solemn. Something that could make Mu Zi so alert must be very extraordinary. He didn't dare to be negligent in any way.

The pure Yuan Dan turned into a torrent of Yuanli and poured into Lin Dong's arms. At this moment, he was fully focused, ready to activate the power of the stone talisman at any time. "Crack!"

After a moment, a sound of breaking was heard. The Yunshen cushion finally couldn't withstand the burning of the strange fire and exploded with a "bang".

After the cushion broke, a tiny ray of light flew out from it. In that light, there were faint rays of light spreading out, forming a small light array that was extremely obscure and complex.

“Lin Dong, hurry up!”

Mu Zi shouted softly, and Lin Dong came back to his senses instantly. A gentle milky white light emanated from his palm, shining on the light array in the air.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

However, Lin Dong was horrified to find that the white light, which was always effective, did not work immediately this time. Waves continued to be emitted from the light array, blocking the light of the stone talisman.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Diao could no longer sit still. His figure appeared on Lin Dong's shoulder, staring closely at the light array in front of him, his tiny eyes filled with shock.

"This formation is quite powerful, as it can make the stone talisman helpless!"

Xiao Diao was very upset. He didn't expect that the thing Lin Dong casually bought at the auction actually contained such a magical item!
"Lin Dong, you made a lot of money this time."

However, at this moment, Lin Dong didn't care whether he made a lot of money or not. His heart was already filled with anxiety.

Even though he had used all his strength to activate the stone talisman, he was still unable to suppress the light array.

"This can't go on like this!"

Lin Dong hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth, and with a thought, the stone talisman actually flew out of his arm and turned into a ray of light and flew into the formation.

He actually forced the stone talisman out of his body!
Mu Zi looked at this scene with a complicated expression.

The stone talisman is Lin Dong’s biggest secret and trump card. At this moment, he chooses to send it out of his body. If she is greedy, this treasure may change hands.

However, Mu Zi would never do such a tasteless thing!
After Zushi entered the Qiankun Ancient Formation, he finally succeeded in suppressing it.

In fact, it is hard to say which of the two is stronger.

Although the Qiankun Ancient Formation was missing the formation plate and was incomplete, the ancestral stone had also been severely damaged and was no longer in peak condition.

The reason why Mu Zi has the confidence to control the Qiankun Ancient Formation is that this formation is probably also the opportunity left by Fu Zu for the Son of the Plane.

Therefore, it would not really resist with all its strength. At most, it would give in half-heartedly and then be "subdued" by Lin Dong.

In the original novel, when Lin Dong suppressed the Qiankun Ancient Formation, his cultivation was at the Nirvana Realm, and he still had the Devouring Ancestral Talisman in his body.

However, the Qiankun Ancient Formation is a formation set up by Fu Zu. I am afraid that to it, there is no difference between the Nirvana Realm and the Three Realms of Creation. They are all just ants.

If the Nirvana Realm can be subdued, then the three realms of good fortune will most likely be no problem either. After all, it is all about the family in Lin Dong's body.
Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Mu Zi began to observe the Qiankun Ancient Formation in front of him.

The ancient light array exudes a faint glow, and the countless rays of light seem to be wriggling and changing all the time, making the array have no fixed form. Its appearance is completely different at every moment.

There was a deep look of surprise in Mu Zi's eyes, and she seemed to sense a familiar breath from this formation.

Spirit formation!

Fu Zu came from the universe, and the Qiankun Ancient Formation was actually a spiritual formation set up by him!
"This spiritual formation is worthy of being called Talisman Ancestor!"

Mu Zi felt a little emotional and was amazed at the mystery of this formation.

Next, she needs to think about it carefully.

"Reincarnation Seal, activate!"

Mu Zi and Lin Dong sat cross-legged quietly. In front of them, a mysterious light array was suspended.

After comprehending for a while, Lin Dong felt a little dizzy, so after he simply mastered the usage of the Qiankun Ancient Formation, he gave up on continuing to comprehend.

After that, Mu Zi was the only one left to comprehend the formation.

Lin Dong was free. He sat where he was, quietly gazing at the beautiful figure not far away, his heart filled with tranquility and peace.

That's good too.
After an unknown amount of time, Mu Zi woke up from his state of meditation.

“Lin Dong, how long has it been?”

"Fifteen days."

Mu Zi nodded slightly, stood up and looked into the distance.

The Great Desolate Ancient Monument is about to be opened.
"call out!"

Lin Dong took back the stone talisman, and at the same time, the Qiankun Ancient Array also entered his body.

"Did you gain anything?" he asked curiously.

The corner of Mu Zi's mouth curled up, and she stretched out a jade-white palm, with a translucent ball of light appearing in the palm of her hand.

"too strong!"

Lin Dong's heart was filled with admiration. Even Xiao Diao had not mastered this power of fusion, but Mu Zi was able to do it. He had to admire her.

"It was just a fluke."

A faint smile appeared on Mu Zi's face. She was very satisfied that she had successfully mastered the power of Yuan Jing.

Now, Mu Zi can integrate the power of Yuan Jing by himself without the help of Qiankun Ancient Formation.

With this method, her strength is now truly comparable to that of a minor success in the Creation Realm!
Mu Zi has mastered some of the power of fusion, however, she has no idea about the power of decomposition.

She could feel that this kind of power was probably beyond her current strength.

Thinking of this, Mu Zi opened her mouth to remind:

“Lin Dong, don’t try to reverse the Qiankun Ancient Formation.”

"Hmm?" Lin Dong was stunned and looked at Mu Zi in confusion, "Is there any problem?"

Mu Zi shook her head. "With your current strength, you can't bear that kind of consumption. If you forcibly reverse the Qiankun Ancient Formation, you will die!"

Mu Zi did not scare him. In the original novel, Lin Dong was able to master this power only after his Seventh Nirvana.

With the current strength, if we force it, I'm afraid we will be reduced to ashes.

Lin Dong nodded. In this case, he would not seek death. The positive fusion force was enough as a trump card. There was no need to force more.

"Let's go to the Great Wilderness Ancient Monument."

　There is another big chapter in the early morning.

　　The storyline of the Great Wilderness Ancient Monument is about to unfold, so stay tuned!
