Lin Yi and Duanmu Yu understood its intention immediately. They could only smile bitterly at each other. This was a good plan.
This guy deliberately made up the signboard of the river of consciousness and used the refining of spiritual awareness as bait to attract the cultivators of the small Jianghu in the immemorial age. Since these cultivators had already reached the stage of refining spiritual awareness, their primordial spirits should more or less have begun to take shape, but they would not be too strong. For it, they were just snacks that were delivered to its door, one bite one.
The people of the primordial Alliance had tried every possible way to get to the river of consciousness. On the way, they had to face a large number of powerful spirit beasts blocking the way. Those who were slightly weaker had directly become Tributes. Even those who were stronger had to cross the territory of the spirit beasts with great difficulty to get to the river of consciousness. In the end, not only did they not get any benefits, but they had also delivered themselves to the mouth of the nine-headed fierce beast. They would die faster than those Tributes. How could he endure this?
If they had not heard it from the nine infants, they would never have imagined that the legendary river of consciousness was actually a huge scam!
Of course, if one were to consider the spiritual awareness grass, the rumor of refining the spiritual awareness could not be considered a pure lie. Unfortunately, only a few people in the entire ancient martial world knew about this. This time, besides Duanmu Yu, only Xue Jianfeng had come to participate in the trial. The others were probably kept in the dark from the beginning to the end.
"Such a simple empty sentence actually turned into a trap to invite the Emperor into the pot. You really have good means." Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh.
It was clearly a simple lie, but because it had been so long that it could not be verified, it became an almost unsolvable scam. The key was that a large number of people did not know the truth until they died, and no one in the outside world had been able to expose the truth. Therefore, the river of consciousness was still a legend that people yearned for, and the cultivators of the small Jianghu in the immemorial era still rushed forward like moths to the fire.
"No big deal!" Although that was what it said, the word 'smug' was clearly written on each of the nine neonate's snake faces. It then said,""The things I've developed over the years are much more interesting than this. Come, come, come, it's rare to meet a human toy like you. I must try it to my heart's content today!"
Lin Yi was a little speechless at how eager the other party was. Putting aside the fact that the other party was the ferocious and terrifying nine neonate, why did he suddenly feel like he was an old kid trapped in a cave, Zhou Botong?
"Wait a minute, didn't you say that you still have a protector and an envoy? their strength is much stronger than ordinary spirit beasts. Moreover, there should be a few outstanding spirit beasts under them. Can't they accompany you to test your moves?" Lin Yi changed the topic. He was trying to find a topic to talk about. He wanted to buy time and absorb the last bit of the star Ink charcoal's consciousness energy. The more strength he recovered, the higher the chance of him surviving.
"No, no, don't be fooled by those spirit beasts 'looks. They're actually all scums. They're too weak. They'll die with one hit." The nine neonate shook its head repeatedly and said,""Although that protector of mine can continuously produce clones, the strength of the clones is too weak. They will be shattered with a casual strike. No matter how powerful the move is, the result is the same. There is no way to test out its specific power. Moreover, it does not have an infinite number of clones. If I hit too many of them, maybe one day their souls will be destroyed. Then I will lose my left and right hands."
Just as the nine neonate said, the water lotus Protector's clones could be endless, but they weren't strong. Even Lin Yi could defeat it easily before, so it was even more vulnerable to an existence like the nine neonate. It had no value in testing.
"Isn't there another envoy?" Lin Yi continued to delay.
"It can't either. Although its skin is much tougher than a Guardian's and it can block most attacks, it's only that good. I almost killed it the last time I attacked it a little too hard. It only managed to survive after hibernating for hundreds of years. I value the two of them so much. I can't kill them so easily ..." The nine neonate's tone was full of relief.
Although it didn't care much about the other spirit beast subordinates, it valued the water lily and the brain-eating insect very much. After all, in terms of racial talent, even if these two couldn't compare to it, they could be considered unique.
Duanmu Yu looked at Lin Yi and couldn't help but think to himself,"one of your left and right arms has already been taken by Lin Yi, and the other was beaten half to death. No wonder you want Lin Yi to be your sparring partner ..."
"Alright, let's cut the crap. I guess you're almost fully recovered, right, human?" The nine neonate suddenly said.
It wasn't stupid, it knew that Lin Yi was trying to buy time to recover, but Lin Yi was just a toy in its eyes. It didn't care about him at all, and it wasn't afraid of him. On the contrary, the higher Lin Yi's strength recovered, the happier it would be. After all, it would be more resistant to attacks!
"It's almost the same. " Lin Yi nodded honestly. He'd already absorbed the last bit of the star Black coal's spirit energy. He wasn't at his peak yet, but he was at least seventy to eighty percent.
"Alright, let's start. I'll give you a simple water and fire dual phase." As soon as it finished speaking, the two heads of the nine neonate each spewed out an extremely pure energy. One was black water, and the other was Scarlet Fire.
After the two energies left his mouth, they quickly entangled with each other, and then forcibly fused into one body that was inseparable from water and fire, which was really an eye-opener.
"Mutual restraint and reinforcement?" Lin Yi was taken aback. The mutual promotion and restraint between water and fire had been an endless debate since ancient times. There were countless Arts and skills in the world of practitioners that were famous for this. It wasn't a big deal to create a similar move, but it was rare to see one do it as flawlessly as the nine neonate. As expected of an old monster from the ancient times!
"This isn't just a simple mutual restraint. You should experience it properly. You'll be surprised!" The nine neonate was full of anticipation. It really wanted to test its moves on Lin Yi this time. Not only did it only merge two energies, but it also slowed down a lot so that Lin Yi could see it clearly. Otherwise, if it really got serious, Lin Yi would be killed by it without even knowing. Wouldn't that be a huge disappointment?
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a loud boom. Half of the water and fire energy that had fused together suddenly exploded. Then, with the thrust generated by the explosion, its speed suddenly doubled.
Immediately after, there was another boom, and half of the water and fire energy was blown up again, doubling its speed.
