Chapter 1277: Illusive Demonic Domain
“Hehe, you still don’t know much about the demon race. When each demon uses the Yuan Attracting Array to stimulate the bloodline power in the body, it will activate the innate talent. The effect of this innate talent varies greatly. It depends on luck. Your body has merged with the true demon blood, and you can be regarded as half a demon. It is not surprising that you unlock this Purple-Patterned Demonic Pupils.” Mo Tian chuckled.
Hearing this, Liu Ming looked around.
Although he didn’t know if what Mo Tian said was true or not, his eyesight had improved greatly. He could easily see more than 10 miles away even if he just stood still.
Not only could he see far, but colorful streams of light that were usually invisible appeared in his visions of the surroundings.
His eyes could capture the invisible and colorless spirits in the world.
“The Purple-Patterned Demonic Pupils is a practical demon race innate talent. It can gain insight into spiritual fluctuations and see through some enchantments. It is also useful in combat. As your cultivation improves, the Purple-Patterned Demonic Pupils will also become stronger.” Mo Tian did not hide anything and explained.
“Thank you for your guidance, senior. Now that I have integrated the true demon blood, should I immediately take over the family that senior said?” Liu Ming nodded and expressed his grat.i.tude. Then, he thought about it before changing the subject.
“No one can see through your ident.i.ty anymore, but I still suggest that you continue to cultivate here for a while. At least, you should refine the Celestial Tablet. It is always good to increase your power.” Mo Tian pondered for a while before suggesting so.
Liu Ming thought about it, and he nodded immediately.
“Okay, I shall follow senior’s words.”
When Mo Tian raised his hand, a white light, that was composed of countless large and small runes, appeared on his fingertip. He flicked and shot it toward Liu Ming.
Liu Ming launched a black light to block it.
His Divine Thought poked into the white light, and his eyes moved slightly. The white light recorded the refine method of the Celestial Tablet.
“My vitality has been exhausted after channeling the Yuan Attracting Array for the past 2 days. I need to take a good rest. You can figure out what to do next.” After Mo Tian said a few words, he returned into Liu Ming’s body.
Liu Ming swallowed the white light, then he checked the surroundings with Divine Thought. After confirming that no demon cultivator was attracted by his actions just now, he was relieved.
Immediately, he flew back to the bottom of the cave with Xie’er, sat down beside the demonic source, and took out the Celestial Tablet.
“Master, the demonic qi here is strong. Especially the presence of true demonic qi, it is of great benefit to my cultivation. I… want to cultivate here for a while.” Xie’er looked at the Celestial Tablet in Liu Ming’s hand and she said hesitantly.
Refining a magic weapon needed an absolutely quiet environment, and she would affect Liu Ming by cultivating here. However, the environment here was rare.
“Okay, no problem.” Liu Ming nodded without thinking.
“Thank you, Master.” Xie’er was overjoyed. She gave Liu Ming a grateful glance, walked to the other side of the demonic source spring, and sat down cross-legged.
Liu Ming waved and cast a green enchantment, enveloping Xie’er and the demonic source spring inside.
Refining magic weapon would not consume too much vitality. Xie’er had reached the stage to advance. Probably, she could successfully advance to Celestial State with the demonic source here.
Liu Ming’s mood quickly calmed down. A cl.u.s.ter of white light emerged in the sea of consciousness, which was the refining method of the Celestial Tablet that Mo Tian just gave him.
Liu Ming released a trace of mental power from the sea of consciousness, wrapped the white light, and started comprehending it.
A day later, Liu Ming opened his eyes with a hint of enlightenment in his gaze.
He spewed out a stream of pure spiritual power, which turned into a cl.u.s.ter of black flames that enveloped the Celestial Tablet.
At the same time, he waved his hands and cast symbols on the Celestial Tablet one after another.
Under the black flames, a gleam of light emerged from the Celestial Tablet.
The spirit patterns on the tablet were lit up a little. There seemed to be signs of being refined immediately.
Liu Ming showed a look of surprise in his eyes.
Liu Ming had tried to refine the Celestial Tablet before, but he made no progress at all. Right now, he had made some progress as soon as he started.
Is the effect of true demon blood really that great, or is the refine method taught by Mo Tian so brilliant?
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Ming did not come to any conclusion, so he had to put aside this thought. Then, he launched a few more symbols, and the black flames enveloping the Celestial Tablet became more vigorous.
…
A month had pa.s.sed in a blink of an eye.
The Celestial Tablet in front of Liu Ming emitted black light on half of the tablet and white light on the other half.
A pupil emerged on the tablet, which was the Illusive Demonic Pupil. But the Illusive Demonic Pupil was half-opened.
Liu Ming slowly opened his eyes. He shook his hands and launched 2 black light beams from both palms. The light beams turned into countless black runes of various sizes that submerged into the Celestial Tablet.
The black and white light on the Celestial Tablet lit up brightly. 8 ancient runes appeared on the tablet, but only the first rune was lit up. The others were still dim.
8 ancient runes flashed and immediately fell silent again. The black and white light on the Celestial Tablet also dissipated.
Liu Ming was relaxed. He waved and retrieved the Celestial Tablet into his hand.
There was a faint light shining on the tablet, indicating a trace of spiritual connection with him.
Liu Ming’s face showed a hint of joy. After spending more than a month, he had finally made preliminary progress in refining the Celestial Tablet, Rank 8 immortal weapon.
However, Liu Ming had to light up all 8 emblems, which were the 8 runes, on the tablet to fully exert its power.
It was impossible to achieve that without the cultivation at the Mystic Comprehending State.
However, even if it was just a preliminary refinement, the power displayed in the Celestial Tablet was already a pleasant surprise to him.
“You have refined it successfully as I expected.” With a flash of black air, Mo Tian emerged again.
“Senior Mo Tian.” Liu Ming greeted immediately.
“Even though you have only refined a magic weapon emblem, you should be able to activate the Illusive Demonic Domain. It will have a significant impact on cultivators of the same realm or even a realm higher than you. You should find a chance to try it out.” Mo Tian glanced at the Celestial Tablet and said with a slight smile.
Liu Ming nodded. He thought of something and turned to look at Xie’er who was beside him.
At this moment, Xie’er had turned into a giant silver scorpion the size of a millstone. Her body was covered with thick black air that was changing nonstop in shape.
Xie’er absorbed all the true demonic qi overflowing from the demonic source.
Liu Ming was overjoyed. The spiritual pressure emanating from Xie’er fluctuated greatly. It indicated that Xie’er had good odds in her advancement to the Celestial State with the help of the demonic source.
Liu Ming retracted his gaze and flew toward the cave entrance.
Xie’er must not be disturbed at this moment.
Soon, Liu Ming left the cave. As he waved his hand, the Celestial Tablet appeared in front of him.
He moved his hands slightly and launched several symbols at the Celestial Tablet. A mysterious black and white light appeared on the tablet immediately.
Liu Ming’s face was solemn. He chanted as he clasped his hands together, then he slowly opened them.
Following his movements, strange black and white lights burst out and merged into a gray-white mist.
The gray-white mist spread in all directions, forming a gray-white sphere with a diameter of about 8 miles in a blink of an eye.
Liu Ming looked around him with a pleasant surprise. Although he had not used the Celestial Tablet in actual combat, he managed to gauge the power of the Illusive Demonic Domain as the person who refined this immortal weapon.
Gaga!
A harsh bird cry sounded from a mountain valley not far from Liu Ming. 8 gray large gray birds with the size of 3 meters flew out, apparently disturbed by Liu Ming.
These gray birds had the strength of the Crystallization Period. They had dagger-like fangs. They looked ferocious with killing intent in their eyes. They spread their wings and flew toward Liu Ming.
As soon as Liu Ming made a gesture, the Illusive Demonic Domain suddenly expanded, covering these gray birds in the domain.
As soon as the gray birds were stained with the gray mist in the domain, they staggered as if they were drunk.
After a few seconds, the 8 gray birds stopped and fell to the ground heavily with a plop.
Even so, these gray birds did not wake up and fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing this scene, Liu Ming showed a satisfied look on his face. He launched several symbols, and the Illusive Demonic Domain flickered a few times and then dissipated.
“As long as the opponent is in the Illusive Demonic Domain, no matter what protective measures he has, it is impossible to isolate the influence of the domain. You have only preliminary refined the Celestial Tablet. As long as you can light up the third magic weapon emblem, cultivators below the Comprehending State realm will be affected as long as they are in the Illusive Demonic Domain even though they will not be enchanted like these Crystallization Period birds. With your strength, you can easily kill them.” Mo Tian said eloquently.
Hearing that, Liu Ming showed no joy on his face, seeming to be thinking about something.
“Senior Mo Tian, I want to ask you for advice on something.” After a while, he suddenly said.
“Say it.” Mo Tian said in a daze.
“I have also tried refining the Celestial Tablet before. Although I spent a lot of effort, I made no progress. Why can I refine Celestial Tablet sacrificial Tablet to this point after only one month?” Liu Ming stared into Mo Tian’s eyes and asked slowly.
