The Portal of Wonderland

As the black light emitted by the magic pattern on Shi Mu's avatar became brighter and brighter, more and more black aura gathered and lingered around his body, gradually forming a fog cocoon.

On the surface of the fog cocoon, the devilish energy gathered more and more densely, becoming like a substance, and the surface began to expand and contract rhythmically.

This situation lasted for a full day and night.

Suddenly, the mist cocoon began to swell and deform continuously, as if the avatar inside was about to come out, and at the same time, the breath rose sharply.

Outside the golden light curtain, Shi Mu stared at the scene in front of him without blinking.

Finally, with a muffled click sound coming from the fog cocoon, the large black air gathered here collapsed and rolled away in all directions, revealing one of them curled up with his hands wrapped around his knees.

Breakthrough! Seeing this, Shi Mu was overjoyed.

This incarnation outside his body actually broke through the bottleneck of his cultivation and reached the early stage of the earth level in one fell swoop.

At this moment, the avatar slowly raised its head, opened its eyes, and stood up.

At this moment, his figure is no longer the appearance of a three-foot child, but has grown up to be as tall as Shi Mu, and his facial features are also very similar, but his whole body is covered with purple lines, and his expression has a hint of evil.

There are circles of purple veins on his lower abdomen. Through mental connection, Shi Mu discovered that a liquid-like black airflow is slowly rotating in his dantian.

That was the spiritual sea incarnated outside of the body, and it was finally completely opened up at this moment. The sound of clicking just now was the sound when the opening of the spiritual sea was completed.

Seeing this, Shi Mu felt a little relieved, and glanced deep down.

Several days passed, Yan Luo still hadn't come out, and although the connection with his spiritual consciousness was still there, he didn't respond in any way.

Shi Mu shook his head, and ordered the avatar to sit cross-legged and continue to devour the demonic energy.

Since the opening of his spiritual sea, the speed at which the incarnation outside his body devours the devil energy has increased greatly again, making the unstable breath caused by the promotion just now gradually stabilized.

But immediately afterwards, Shi Mu began to discover that a large piece of black aura was still coiling around the avatar, but it couldn't directly submerge into the magic lines around his body like before.

In other words, the avatar can no longer improve his cultivation by devouring magic energy as before.

What's going on? Seeing this, Shi Mu was a little surprised, and tried several times, but the situation remained the same.

Since this avatar of mine is of the devil attribute, it is a bit special to be able to rapidly improve the cultivation level by devouring the devil energy, which was not mentioned in the classics I consulted at the beginning.

Seeing this, Shi Mu shook his head.

That being the case, he had no choice but to give up. He glanced at the depths of the demonic energy, and with a move in his heart, he immediately drove the avatar to stand up and head down.

Before that, Yan Luo dived directly into the depths of the demonic energy, but it has been a long time now, and she doesn't know what happened to her.

The avatar outside the body flew downwards, and soon went deeper for tens of feet, and finally reached the bottom of the sea eye.

Shi Mu's face was startled, and a crack several feet in size suddenly appeared in the space at the bottom of the sea eye. It didn't know where it led, and a stream of dark devilish energy emanated from it.

Next to the crack in the space, you can see a black mist ball taller than a person, which is very similar to the fog cocoon condensed by the previous incarnation. The surrounding black air is still continuously gathering towards the center, forming a vortex.

Through the black air, Yan Luo's figure could be vaguely seen, and bursts of powerful breath fluctuations came out from inside, this coercion was far beyond what the previous avatar broke through.

Yan Luo seemed to be performing some secret technique to absorb the surrounding magic energy.

Judging from the fluctuations in her breath, her injuries had already healed.

Seeing this scene, Shi Mu heaved a sigh of relief, and made the avatar look around without disturbing Yan Luo.

The rocks around the bottom of the sea have all turned pitch black due to long-term contamination with magic energy, somewhat similar to those magic crystals, but with a bit more sharp cold light.

These black stones contained a lot of black energy, Shi Mu's heart moved, and he ordered the avatar to put these stones away.

Then he continued to walk on the bottom of the sea. The place was not big, and he turned around quickly. Except for the black stones he found before, there was nothing else.

Shi Mu soon became bored, and let the avatar outside him sit down not far from Yan Luo, quietly waiting for Yan Luo to leave the barrier.

Time passed by little by little, and two days passed in a blink of an eye.

As the black energy on Yan Luo's body became more intense, the mana fluctuations from his body became more and more violent, and the vortex created by absorbing the magic energy also became faster and faster.

On this day, the black air wrapped around Yan Luo's body suddenly rolled violently, rushing towards his body.

A huge coercion emanated from Yan Luo, which almost reached the level of the holy rank, and the surrounding sea water demon energy violently turbulent, rushing towards the outside, as if a hurricane was suspended out of thin air.

The avatar outside the body couldn't defend himself, and was immediately blown away by this powerful pressure, and hit the mountain wall heavily.

Fortunately, this avatar was very hard and was not injured.

He turned over and got up, and flew upwards. After flying more than ten feet, he stopped and looked at Yan Luo.

Yan Luo's body was surrounded by black energy, as if she was spiritual, a large black light emanated from her body, and then a burst of glaring white light gushed out.

Two kinds of light, one black and one white, intertwined with each other, and gradually condensed into a huge black and white flower, which appeared behind Yan Luo.

Yan Luo looked solemn at the moment, waving his hands, and punched out a series of spells.

The black and white flowers behind her gradually melted towards her body, but the speed was very slow, which seemed very forced.

Shi Mu's eyes flickered. Although he is only at the early stage of Tianwei, he has a good understanding of the later realms. He has read a lot of books in Shengdian Pavilion.

The black and white flowers behind Yan Luo should be the holy embryos condensed during the process of advancing to the holy rank.

Only when the holy embryo is condensed and successfully merged with the body can one truly advance to the holy level.

But looking at Yan Luo like this, it seems that the peace is not going well.

At this moment, the light on Yan Luo's body trembled violently, and then hummed. The black and white flowers behind her fluctuated violently, and then dissipated with a loud noise.

A violent mana fluctuation suddenly spread, and the sea water was violently turbulent again.

The avatar outside his body immediately flew upwards without waiting for him to be affected, and only after the turmoil subsided slowly did he fly downwards again.

At the bottom of the sea, the black air and light around Yan Luo's body had dissipated, and he stood there quietly, as if he had failed to attack the holy steps, his expression looked a little sad, but there was no sign of happiness or anger.

With a flash of black shadow, the avatar outside of him flew down and landed in front of Yan Luo.

I didn't expect this avatar of yours to break through the bottleneck here. Yan Luo looked at the avatar outside him and said.

You failed to hit the bottleneck just now, is there anything wrong? Shi Mu asked through the avatar outside his body.

It's okay, I just used up some vitality. Yan Luo said.

You can't rush for success in this matter. Now that you have experienced it twice, you should be sure next time. Shi Mu said.

Maybe, but it's not easy to find such a place with strong demonic energy. Yan Luo looked around and said.

By the way, do you know why there is a demonic energy overflowing here, is it connected to the Black Demon Starfield? Shi Mu asked again.

Due to some special reasons, it is not surprising that there are several space passages between the two star fields. Perhaps a long time ago, you had a fierce battle above the holy rank, but the barrier of this seal has been due to too long. It has begun to decline. Yan Luo said.

Will the Black Demon Clan pass through the space crack here and appear here across the space? Shi Mu asked with a frown.

The space crack here is different from the pumice star sea before. Not only is it much smaller in scale, but it is also extremely unstable. At best, it can only leak some magic energy, and it is impossible for creatures to pass through. Yan Luo said, with a flash across his face. A hint of tiredness.

You should retreat here first, recover your vitality, and I won't bother you. Seeing this, Shi Mu controlled the avatar's body to move, and he was about to fly upwards.

Wait a minute. Yan Luo suddenly stopped Shi Mu.

Your avatar outside your body can't improve its strength at this moment, right? She looked at the avatar outside her body and said.

That's right, now this incarnation can no longer absorb the devilish energy here, do you know the reason? The incarnation said, with a look of great joy on its face.

Although your incarnation is extraordinary, it is not easy to reach the ground level by devouring the magic energy, but if you want to continue to improve the strength of the incarnation outside your body, you need to let it practice exercises, just like ordinary monks. Slowly break through the realm and improve your strength. Yan Luo glanced at the avatar and said.

Seeing this, Shi Mu was stunned, it was the first time Yan Luo showed such an expression in front of him, before she always looked icy and cold.

Yan Luo noticed the change in Shi Mu's avatar's expression, and immediately reacted, his face turned slightly red, but he immediately returned to normal.

She waved her hand, and a black air flew out of her hand, condensed into a black jade slip, handed it to the avatar, and said: Here is a set of black demon skills, which was practiced by Xiao Yao, a holy demon. After devouring his divine soul, he also got this exercise. This exercise is not bad, and it also comes with several powerful magical powers of the demon race, which is very suitable for your incarnation.

Okay, thank you very much. The avatar took the jade slip and said.

Why do you need to thank me? These days you hunted monsters and collected beast souls for me. If you want to say thank you, wouldn't I have to tell me many times? Yan Luo said, with a smile on his face .

This smile, however, seemed to suddenly melt the ice of ten thousand years, eclipsing everything around him.

Shi Mu's expression was dull for a while, and he stood there in a daze.

Okay, here is full of demonic energy, which is suitable for cultivation, you go quickly, I will recover my vitality. Yan Luo waved his hand and sat down. (To be continued.)
