Man is in the heavens, parasitic on the way

Chapter 140 Exchange and Mutation

Seeing that Kun Peng's spirit had entered the seed, Kun Peng Zi couldn't help but show surprise, thinking to himself, "I didn't expect this to be his true body, and it seems to be some kind of spiritual root that has attained the Dao? Could it be a spiritual root born with the creation of heaven and earth? Or perhaps nurtured by chaos?"

Although spiritual roots and spiritual plants are similar, they are ultimately different.

Spiritual roots have noble origins and a greater background, either being ancestral immortal roots of a world born with the creation of heaven and earth, or innate spiritual roots nurtured by chaos, all possessing incredible abilities and effects.

"So this is Fellow Daoist, truly extraordinary, no wonder I sensed the aura of many old friends."

Kun Peng Zi said with emotion, then revealed a cold smile, "I'm afraid those old friends didn't end up too well!"

"Besides the leader of the Western Sect and Qin Changsheng, your old friends have likely all fallen."

Fang Ming's calm voice came out.

Kun Peng Zi stared blankly, and only after a while did he say, "So it's like this..."

He actually felt an inexplicable sense of emptiness in his heart, then he smiled, looking a little regretful.

After a while, he looked at Fang Ming and said, "May I ask what Fellow Daoist needs? Since Fellow Daoist saved me from beneath Five Elements Mountain, if it is within my ability, I will certainly not refuse."

"I want to exchange the Main and Secondary Body Method with Fellow Daoist."

Fang Ming said, "Fellow Daoist doesn't need to worry about being at a disadvantage, I will use the Grass Character Sword Technique to exchange for this divine ability."

The secret technique to cultivate the Main and Secondary Body Method is undoubtedly an extremely profound secret technique, and its complete value is absolutely not inferior to the Ten Fiend Laws.

In this secret technique, the cultivated Ci Shen is not much weaker than the main body, only a slight difference.

Moreover, if the main body falls, it can even revive with the help of the Ci Shen, and simultaneously advance further.

After the main body and Ci Shen merge, they become even more immensely powerful, far beyond the ordinary.

The great method used by that 'fake medicine seller' to divide himself into six is very likely the source of the so-called Main and Secondary Body Method secret technique and divine ability.

Hearing this, Kun Peng Zi suddenly understood in his heart, and although he shook his head, he said, "No need for that, I will just give this divine ability to Fellow Daoist."

"Fellow Daoist releasing me from Five Elements Mountain is already a great kindness."

Looking at Fang Ming, he said, "With such a favor, it would be unreasonable to accept Fellow Daoist's sword technique as well."

Fang Ming's voice came out, saying, "Speaking of which, I also owe Kun Peng a favor, so releasing Fellow Daoist from beneath Five Elements Mountain can be considered something I should do."

Back then in the Hundred Shattering Mountains, Kun Peng indeed left a message saying that if a latecomer was capable, please help take care of her child.

Back then, regarding Pumo King's body, he could also be considered to have obtained Kun Peng's legacy.

Kun Peng Zi's pupils contracted, showing surprise, and he quickly asked, "Does Fellow Daoist know my mother?"

"No, I just received Kun Peng's favor."

Fang Ming said.

"So that's how it is!"

Kun Peng Zi suddenly understood, feeling a little regretful.

"In that case, Fellow Daoist, please use my mother's Law to exchange with me."

Kun Peng Zi said.

Then he explained, "Back when my mother was pregnant with me, she encountered a formidable enemy, which caused me to be severely injured while still in my mother's womb, damaging my bloodline origin and preventing me from fully inheriting my mother's great Law."

"Fellow Daoist was actually unable to fully inherit Kun Peng's Law?"

Fang Ming was shocked in his heart.

At the same time, he thought of the True Dragon that would be born in the Lower Realm not long after, whose situation was even worse.

That True Dragon did not inherit the True Dragon's Law at all, only possessing bloodline power.

As for why Kun Peng and the True Dragon did not leave additional legacies, the reason is not complicated.

Beings who inherit through bloodline simply do not need to deliberately leave extra great heritage Laws; the race's great heritage Laws can naturally be passed down through the bloodline.

As long as they can be born successfully, the race's great heritage Laws will be imprinted in the bloodline and naturally appear.

Those with impure bloodlines obtain incomplete Laws, known as the Laws of Relics, while those with pure bloodlines naturally obtain the Laws of Pure-blooded Fierce Beasts.

Situations like Kun Peng Zi and that True Dragon are extremely rare throughout the ages, even their mothers did not anticipate this problem.

In fact, the Heavenly Horned Ant, which encountered a similar situation, did not have this problem.

It also suffered severe injuries before birth, and countless heavenly treasures were consumed afterwards to save it.

The Heavenly Horned Ant was lucky, its Precious Technique was complete, while Kun Peng Zi and the True Dragon were unlucky, their Precious Techniques were lost.

"Back then, my mother suffered severe injuries while pregnant with me, causing my origin to be incomplete.

Although I used various treasures to compensate, I ultimately couldn't fully make up for it, otherwise, how could I only be at my current realm?"

Kun Peng Zi shook his head, full of regret.

As a descendant of the Ten Fiends, he was born early.

If not for his incomplete origin, how could he only be at the Escape One Realm?

The Main and Secondary Body Method was precisely the divine ability and secret technique he sought to break free from the constraints of his origin.

"So that's how it is."

Fang Ming suddenly understood and said, "In that case, I will give the Kun Peng Law to Fellow Daoist."

Kun Peng Zi cupped his hands and thanked him solemnly, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist, my mother's Law is very important to me.

It can stimulate my bloodline power and perhaps allow my origin to recover further."

For beings like them who rely on bloodline power, the origin of their own bloodline is extremely important!

Why is the True Dragon the head of the Ten Fiends?

It is because the True Dragon's bloodline is unparalleled in the world.

The True Dragon back then was extremely powerful, a giant among Immortal Kings, and 'Second Under Heaven', who failed to contend for the True Dragon's True Name, was also a peak Immortal King.

Only at the Immortal King realm can one contend for the name of True Dragon!

"Fellow Daoist doesn't need to thank me, this is a transaction."

Fang Ming said calmly.

Subsequently, both parties proceeded with the transaction.

Having reached their level, they could naturally evolve the great Law's heritage Dao imprint, without needing long explanations.

After exchanging what they needed, Kun Peng Zi cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist, let us part ways here and meet again in the future."

As his voice fell, a pair of golden wings extended from his back.

With a flap of the golden wings, Dao runes spread, the Lower Realm's boundary wall shattered, and he entered the Upper Realm.

He took advantage of the time when the two realms were merging and entered the Upper Realm.

After Kun Peng Zi left, Fang Ming was not in a hurry to return to Stone Village, but instead roughly browsed through the Main and Secondary Body Method obtained from Kun Peng Zi.

"This divine ability is somewhat different from what I imagined..."

Fang Ming thought to himself.

In the Main and Secondary Body Method obtained by Kun Peng Zi, the Ci Shen can be separated from the main body, or it can be cultivated using external objects.

Each has its own advantages.

If one's own talent and bloodline are already powerful, separating from oneself is naturally the best choice.

A Ci Shen separated from the main body, even after long years, is extremely unlikely to develop its own separate thoughts.

Moreover, it can inherit various bloodline powers of the main body, equivalent to another self, and is extremely powerful.

If one wants to use external objects to cultivate the Ci Shen, then the external object used needs to be compatible with oneself, not just used arbitrarily, nor can any powerful external object be used.

Furthermore, if the external object used is powerful enough, then the Ci Shen cultivated will naturally be extremely powerful, possessing exceptional talent, possibly even surpassing the main body.

Of course, a Ci Shen cultivated using external objects has various drawbacks, the most obvious being the ease with which it develops its own independent consciousness, turning the tables!

Therefore, cultivators who obtain the Main and Secondary Body Method often do not choose to use external objects to cultivate the Ci Shen; the successor of the Immortal Palace was like this, and Yue Chan was also like this.

However, even so, within just over ten years, the unlucky Yue Chan's Ci Shen also developed disloyalty and wanted to devour her main body.

Yue Chan was also unlucky, and she herself was somewhat special.

"This Main and Secondary Body Method is indeed not ordinary!"

After Fang Ming roughly scanned it, he immediately understood the general idea.

He withdrew his consciousness from the Dao realm, and just as he was planning to go back and study this method, a sudden change occurred.

Fang Ming was startled in his heart.

Before he could react, he saw a streak of immortal light breaking through the air, moving extremely fast.

It instantly arrived beside him, so fast that he couldn't react in time.

The immortal light was brilliant, accompanied by seven-colored auspicious energy, and had an extremely rich and fragrant aura.

This was a small tree, only one foot tall, shrouded in white immortal mist, hazy and indistinct.

The leaves on its branches shimmered with immortal light, like stars in the darkness, possessing an aura of immortality.

On the one-foot-tall small tree, immortal energy flowed, transforming into three Dao flowers, evolving endless Dao mysteries.

At times, they turned into light rain, transforming into small figures comprehending the Dao; at times, they turned into various weapons; and at times, they transformed into various falling phenomena, tempering weapons and small figures...

Seeing this scene, within the seed's inner world, Fang Ming's pupils contracted, showing a look of horror, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

This Immortal Medicine actually came looking for him!

Moreover, he had clearly already plucked and taken away the three Dao flowers that this Immortal Medicine had produced before, and now they had actually regrown.

This was a bit terrifying!
