Chapter 947 Refining the Crimson Sun, the Incense Mystery
After half a month of consolidation, Ye Kang had already reached the highest level of cultivation.
At this moment, he had no more hesitation and immediately activated the system.
Another six million units of comprehension were consumed, and a massive wave of enlightenment descended, causing Ye Kang's head to feel heavy.
After a moment, he recovered and then began the familiar refining process.
The crimson yang energy that the Crocodile God had found was already prepared, and Ye Kang's yang energy instantly merged with it. Under the impetus of the Supreme Purity Heaven-Reaching Technique, everything went incredibly smoothly.
The system's infusion of insight helped Ye Kang overcome all the bottlenecks and difficulties on his path to breakthrough.
As soon as any problem arises, Ye Kang has the corresponding insight to deal with it. Soon, the refining of the Crimson Sun Qi is completed, and Ye Kang's aura suddenly changes.
His feminine qualities vanished, replaced by a fierce masculine aura.
With his physical body strengthened and his primordial spirit transformed, Ye Kang felt as if he were a god in control of everything.
This powerful sense of control is a sign of the perfection of Yang.
At the Yang Realm, the efficiency of absorbing surrounding spiritual energy is greatly enhanced, and true energy can be restored with a single breath. There is no need to worry about insufficient true energy at all, and divine sense will automatically generate many kinds of changes.
It can apply various effects such as defense, attack, and intimidation, and its speed and health also increase significantly out of nowhere, as if a loophole has been filled.
This is the blessing brought by the perfect balance of Yin and Yang energies, which more than doubles the combat power.
Now, facing demons at the Yin Extinction Realm again, Ye Kang is confident that he can easily defeat them.
Even top-tier experts at the Yang Extinction Realm can protect themselves.
At this moment, Ye Kang felt more confident than ever before.
A slight smile played on his lips as he calmed himself, took out the last two precious fish, and swallowed them whole.
The treasure fish no longer has much effect on the Return to Truth Realm, but it's better than nothing and can still help a little.
Seeing Ye Kang consolidating his cultivation, the three remnant souls in the distance stared at each other, all looking completely bewildered.
Tu Jingjun was most puzzled: "I've never returned to my true self. Is returning to my true self really that simple?"
The Brahma, standing to the side, shook his head blankly: "His return to the true nature seems to be quite different from mine..."
The two of them looked at Ke Yuanzhou at the same time.
Even someone as composed as the latter couldn't hide his astonishment: "Incredible! Such speed, yet maintaining a solid foundation—even the most talented person in the Holy Sect ten thousand years ago couldn't do that..."
A look of reminiscence crossed Ke Yuanzhou's eyes. The most talented one was a peerless female sword cultivator, who was also the one who protected him at the last moment, fighting to the death with a group of powerful enemies—his senior sister…
He had always thought that his senior sister was the strongest genius he had ever seen.
But now it seems that times are indeed progressing, and the world will never lack geniuses.
When Tu Jingjun saw Ke Yuanzhou's appearance, he secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.
Just what kind of prodigy is this Ye boy?
Soon, Ye Kang had initially stabilized his cultivation at the Yang Realm.
Now that he has used up all the energy of heaven and earth, he needs to recuperate for a while before making further progress.
As soon as he finished, the Brahmin flew over.
"Master, I've discovered something interesting."
"Oh? What is it?"
Ye Kang was very curious: what could the remnant soul of the Brahma Clan, who had never left the area, possibly discover?
Without saying much, Brahma led Ye Kang to the area below Brahma's True Meaning.
“Master, please see, I am in charge of the true meaning for you, and I am very clear about the composition of your incense offerings. The incense offerings were normal before, but these days, the incense offerings gathered from Tinglang Island have a big problem.”
"what is the problem?"
"Incense is supposed to be the power of believers' devout gathering, and each incense stick should be complete and independent. However, the incense sticks from Tinglang Island are all incomplete, or rather, they are missing more than half, leaving only a small part. At first, I thought there was a problem with the true meaning, but after waiting for a few days, I found that only the incense sticks from Tinglang Island were like this, while the other incense sticks were all normal."
"Such a thing is true..."
Ye Kang frowned instantly and immediately extended his divine sense to check as well.
Because the worship on Tinglang Island was of the Great Sage of Swallowing Dust, and had not been passed through the incense seed, Ye Kang did not look at it carefully and regarded it as ordinary incense.
But after Brahman's prompting, he immediately realized something was amiss.
The quality of these incense sticks is clearly not as pure as that of incense sticks from other places. Even if they look the same, they are much less nourishing to the true meaning of Brahma.
Ye Kang immediately frowned: "What do you think is going on?"
After thinking for a moment, Bharadvaja said, "The most likely explanation is that the incense offerings have been intercepted."
"what!"
Ye Kang was shocked. Could his lineage be intercepted by someone else?
Bharak nodded: "That's the most likely scenario. If from the very beginning, these incense offerings were locked in by a certain incense Dao trace or a stronger incense true meaning, then no matter who the believers worship, the mastermind behind locking them in early on can get a share of the profits."
"Is that so? Doesn't that make the Incense Avenue a huge pitfall? We'll have to be on guard against people stealing incense offerings all the time."
"That's true. That's why, starting from my time, there have been very few martial artists who follow the path of incense offerings. This path is destined to be one that no one can monopolize. No matter how strong the master of the path of incense offerings is, he has to share some of the incense offerings with other gods."
Brahma bluntly acknowledged the shortcomings of the incense-burning path.
Upon hearing this, Ye Kang immediately connected it with the Heavenly Court on Earth.
In fact, the Heavenly Court is also like this, ruled by all the immortals, rather than by the supreme ruler, Haotian.
It seems that all the incense-based paths are like this. Although other paths are not unique either, they are far from being as scumbags as the incense-based paths, who can fall in love with one after another.
"That means the wild gods of Luoyan Prefecture are actually the ranch of some powerful figure. These wild gods seem to be stealing incense offerings, but in reality, they are all someone else's black gloves."
Ye Kang immediately made a judgment: the wild gods must have all condensed incense seeds, but they did not have the true meaning of incense. Therefore, they had no idea that their incense was only a small part, and the majority of it had been eaten by others.
Typical case: being sold out and then having to count the money for the seller.
"Good heavens, it seems Luoyan Prefecture is no ordinary place... Who could have done this? Was it the leader of the Demon God Alliance?"
Ye Kang immediately identified the alliance leader.
The reason is simple: he has the highest cultivation level, the strongest strength, and is the eldest of the Thirteen Demon Saints, making him the most likely to do such a thing.
After all, he was already at the peak of the late stage, just one step away from becoming a demon emperor.
If one consumes enough incense offerings, it is possible for quantitative changes to lead to qualitative changes.
"What the master guessed is probably the most likely explanation, but unfortunately the true meaning is not a Dao trace, so we cannot deduce who did it," said Brahma regretfully.
Ye Kang smiled and said, "From now on, you don't need to call me master. Just call me fellow Daoist."
