Extraordinary Awakening, starting with Samadhi True Fire

Chapter 269 Entering the Crimson Flame Ape Clan

"And there is one more crucial proof."

Xiao Weiqing asked, "What?"

"moon."

"When we observe the solar system, including other star systems, we never see a single satellite orbiting its host star without rotating on its own."

Xiao Weiqing nodded. He knew this; the moon always faces the earth with the same side, and has been watching the earth since ancient times.

"Staring?"

suddenly.

Xiao Weiqing got goosebumps and suddenly looked up at Xie Zhiyuan.

You mean...?

"Surveillance!" x2

"That's right."

Xie Zhiyuan said: "Scientific research in the old era showed that the craters on the moon, regardless of their diameter, are only about 6 kilometers deep. Therefore, we believe that there must be something inside the moon that is monitoring the Earth."

"6 kilometers?"

A flash of inspiration struck Xiao Weiqing.

"Starship!"

"I know, it must be the Starship!"

When he first entered the starry sky, it was very cold outside because he was on the moon.

He calculated that the passage was about 6 kilometers long, and when they entered the Starry Sky, they were actually entering the interior of the moon.

Xiao Weiqing was horrified by his own thoughts: a spaceship the size of the moon was monitoring Blue Star for who knows how many years, and there were even corpses of Star Lords on board.

"Starship?"

"That's right, former headmaster..."

Then Xiao Weiqing recounted his experiences on the Starry Sky and his own speculations.

"That makes sense. Back then, Dongfang Hao must have discovered something, which is why the No. 3 Trial Grounds you mentioned were halted for 80 years, and later he even stormed the temple and stole the Azure Dragon Divine Stele."

Xie Zhiyuan became increasingly convinced that their speculation was correct.

"Old headmaster, knowing all this now is useless. Just tell me how to survive."

Xie Zhiyuan nodded, "Yes, as I just said, the evolution of us humans on Blue Star is planned, but the evolutionary time is far from enough; it's like forcing growth."

"This leads to our physical bodies being weak and unable to directly absorb cosmic energy particles, which is why the spiritual energy has revived. In fact, spiritual energy is a secondary energy, and not every civilization has it. Most civilizations are born using cosmic energy particles for cultivation."

"That's what we call Shen Yun."

"Our cultivation system requires reaching the fifth realm to meet these cultivation requirements; otherwise, forcibly using cosmic energy particles for cultivation would be harmful rather than beneficial."

Xiao Weiqing nodded; he knew all of this.

"My method is to send you into the demon race's demon-refining pool."

"A demon-refining pool?"

"Um."

"Based on my observation, the demon race on this planet is not naturally suited to cultivating with cosmic energy particles, but they are still capable, better than us humans on Earth."

"These demons, upon reaching the fifth realm, need to enter the Demon Refining Pool to evolve, similar to our mortal transformation, which involves modifying our bodies."

Xiao Weiqing felt a chill run down his spine. "Old Principal, first tell me if I can get in. Even if I do succeed, I'm afraid I might turn into a monster?"

"Won't."

"I've experienced the Demon Refining Pool before; it's pure cosmic energy, but it contains a trace of the bloodline power of a demon demigod."

"Those demons who want to cultivate into the true form of a great demon need to absorb this trace of demon god bloodline power."

Xie Zhiyuan explained, "I certainly wouldn't suggest this to anyone else, because the bloodline of the demon race can affect a person's body and slowly transform them into a demon, just like those demon god cults."

"But you are different. Your true fire can cleanse all the impure forces that do not belong to you."

"Otherwise, you would not only be seriously injured, but you would have been killed by the power of the divine messenger long ago."

Xiao Weiqing nodded. "I see."

"Okay, you should recover from your injuries first. There's a group of Crimson Flame Apes halfway up the mountain. We'll use their Demon Refining Pool later."

"borrow?"

"Well, you'll find out then."

......

half a month later.

Xiao Weiqing's health has improved to a point where he can walk freely.

night.

Xie Zhiyuan caught another chicken and brought it back, and it was already cleaned.

"Come on, let's grill it!"

"Old Principal, this is a level 9 real fire. It's not appropriate to always use it for grilling."

Xiao Weiqing smiled wryly. In the past few days, he had roasted rabbit, lamb, and beef. Basically, he had roasted everything that was available in this forest.

"So, are you going to bake it or not?"

Ten minutes later.

"Mmm, it smells delicious!"

"Not bad, right? It's fragrant on the outside and tender on the inside, and it doesn't have any unpleasant smell."

The two shared a chicken the size of an ostrich, satisfying their appetites.

"You wait here, I'm going out for a bit, I probably won't be back until tomorrow."

"Hey, headmaster, where are you going?"

"Go and catch two Crimson Flame Apes."

......

Xie Zhixing left and didn't return until the next day.

"Bang, bang~"

The two unconscious Crimson Flame Apes were thrown into the cave.

"Old Headmaster, what's this?"

"This is a Crimson Flame Ape at the seventh realm, named Jin Yanjing. Jin Wu is a Crimson Flame Ape about to break through to the fifth realm. They are a father and son. Jin Wu is about to enter the Demon Refining Pool."

"We need to figure out their living habits and way of speaking within a month. The demon-refining pool for this Crimson Flame Ape tribe will be opened next month."

An hour later.

The two Crimson Flame Apes woke up.

Strangely, the two Crimson Flame Apes seemed not to see Xie Zhixing and Xiao Weiqing, and continued talking to themselves.

Sometimes Jin Yanjing would shout at the air, either getting angry or lecturing, even though there was clearly no one in front of him.

In the evening, Jin Yanjing instructed Jin Wu in cultivation outside the cave entrance as if no one else was around.

This allowed Xiao Weiqing to witness Xie Zhixing's power. A peak eighth-realm spiritual cultivator, he used his spiritual power to weave a false world, causing a seventh-realm demon king to become lost in it without realizing it.

Time passed day by day.

While learning the common language of the demon race from Xie Zhixing, Xiao Weiqing observed Jin Yanjing and his son, especially Jin Wu, not missing a single detail, habit, or small action of Jin Wu.

.....

"Boom!"

Outside the cave entrance.

The commotion from the fight between Jin Yanjing and Jin Wu grew increasingly intense.

"Old Principal, they seem a bit off these past few days, especially Jin Yanjing."

"Of course something's wrong. Jin Yanjing has already noticed the anomaly. The false world I created won't hold him for long."

"Wu'er, how have you been observing these past few days?" Xie Zhixing asked in the demon language.

"Father, there are no problems now."

Xiao Weiqing also answered in the demon language, and if you listen carefully, his tone is exactly the same as Jin Wu's tone when he spoke to Jin Yanjing.

"it is good."

"Then tomorrow night, we'll make a trip to the Crimson Flame Ape Clan."

Xie Zhiyuan's spiritual power stirred slightly.

Thump~~

outside.

Two bodies fell to the ground, completely silent.

.....

The next day.

noon.

Xie Zhiyuan led Xiao Weiqing to infiltrate the vicinity of the Crimson Flame Ape Clan's territory.

He reached out and put his hand on Xiao Weiqing's shoulder.

A strange energy fluctuation was causing Xiao Weiqing to perceive a change in himself. Although everything seemed normal, he saw himself as an ape.

"Remember, try to avoid going to places with many Crimson Flame Apes, do not come into contact with other Crimson Flame Apes, and absolutely do not fight."

"Of course, don't be afraid. There are only a few thousand Crimson Flame Apes in this group, and the strongest of them is only at the peak of the seventh realm. If things are exposed, I can still take you away without any problem."

"Understood, Father."

"Alright, Wu'er, let's go back to the tribe."

Xie Zhiyuan led Xiao Weiqing toward the gate of the Crimson Flame Ape clan's territory.
