Hearing this voice, Ming Qi knew that the Dikui Fox Demon had successfully transcended the tribulation. With the aid of the heaven-defying and mysterious Loulan Sacred Tree, it had safely completed the second major hurdle in its demonic cultivation path.
The first major hurdle in demonic cultivation is naturally the leap from Level 3 to Level 4, equivalent to a human cultivator's advancement from the acquired to the innate realm.
However, this mysterious space remained intact despite the powerful celestial thunder, which disappointed him somewhat. If even the thunder couldn't penetrate it, then with their combined strength, it would be even more impossible.
"Hehe, does anyone have any clothes? Lend me some..."
The purple light dissipated, and the Dikui Fox Demon's voice rang out.
Ming Qi was stunned, and almost subconsciously glanced over.
The Dikui Fox Demon Demon, having successfully transcended the tribulation and transformed into human form, was surprisingly a beautiful, innocent-looking young woman.
Her long, snow-white hair cascaded down her face, her face round, her skin smooth, her breasts firm and plump, her nipples slender, her hips curvaceous, her legs slender.
…
It was truly a scene that made one's blood boil.
But Ming Qi didn't have much time to think about anything else right now. Being in a desperate situation was no joke.
He coughed a few times, pulled out a set of his own clothes from his ring, and tossed them over.
"These are my clothes. Just make do with them."
The newcomer, the Dikui fox demon, seemed completely unconcerned with the woman's body. He graciously caught the clothes Ming Qi threw and put them on with a measured, orderly manner.
The clothes were a bit too loose and didn't quite fit, but he made do.
After putting on her clothes, the Dikui Fox Demon smiled, "This time, thanks to this sacred artifact..."
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's find a way to leave here quickly."
Ming Qi released a stream of energy and sheathed the Loulan Sacred Tree.
Now Ming Qi had a clearer idea. Since the Loulan Sacred Tree possessed such immense power and even held the aura of a dragon, it was natural to preserve it. If she escaped alive today, she would definitely find time to study this incredible artifact.
Seeing Ming Qi sheath the Loulan Sacred Tree, the Dikui Fox Demon blinked her charming eyes but said nothing.
The lifespan of demonic beasts is much longer than that of humans, so the Dikui Fox Demon at this moment still looked as beautiful as a young girl. However, everyone present knew that while her appearance remained unchanged, her lifespan was also rapidly fading.
"Let me try."
Having just successfully transcended the tribulation, the Dikui Fox Demon was brimming with confidence. She simply adjusted to human form, then with a tap of her foot, she took flight.
He quickly flew to the front of a massive palace, raised his hand, and unleashed a powerful attack.
Boom!
The deafening roar was deafening.
Clang!
Just when everyone thought their efforts were futile, they were surprised to find that the gates of this enormous palace had suddenly opened!
"It's better to try than to save our lives. Let's go inside and take a look."
Seeing the palace gates open, Ming Qi didn't even consider whether there were any traps and headed straight for them.
The palace was silent. Passing through the gates, the layout of the palace came into view.
Like the exterior, the entire palace was decorated in a silvery hue, a faint silver hue permeating everywhere.
The palace's decorations were dreamlike, almost like a dream.
Hmm?
The others then entered the palace, but Ming Qi suddenly had a thought.
Just as he entered the palace, he was shocked to discover that the long-dormant Supreme Diagram was violently vibrating.
Something's amiss!
As soon as he sensed this, Ming Qi also saw a glimmer of hope.
Every time the Supreme Diagram vibrated, it brought unimaginable results. This time, the fluctuations were so intense, even more intense than any before. It was easy to imagine the magnitude of the mystery involved.
"Don't move."
Feeling the intense fluctuations of the Supreme Diagram, Ming Qi immediately realized that it might hold great promise. He quickly told the others to hold back for the time being, while he himself found a place to crouch down.
Summoning the Supreme Diagram, he sent a wisp of his spiritual consciousness into it, and began searching the vast expanse.
The Supreme Diagram had now become incredibly clear. Ever since he had obtained the Eight Trigrams Seal from it, the Supreme Diagram had been imbued with a grandeur that encompassed the vastness of heaven and earth, as if encompassing countless worlds.
Ming Qi's consciousness drifted aimlessly across the entire world, like a drop in the ocean.
After a short while, Ming Qi immediately realized that this time, the fluctuations in the Supreme Map were no longer limited to a single point as before, but the entire world!
The entire world within the map was vibrating at this moment!
"What's going on?"
Ming Qi had never seen such a scene before. He had long since confirmed that the Supreme Map held countless secrets. Each fluctuation brought new opportunities, and this time, the fluctuation was so massive that it filled Ming Qi with surprise and immense anticipation.
"Could it be that the true soul of the Supreme Mountain and Sea Map has awakened?"
Ming Qi made a wild guess, but before he could react, he felt the Supreme Map vibrate violently, and a profound aura of time and experience gradually emanating from it, permeating the vast world.
Originally, Ming Qi had suspected that this aura would be as fierce and ferocious as before. However, at this moment, when he came into contact with it, he instead felt an unprecedented sense of peace and tranquility. It emanated faintly, without a trace of ferocity.
Confirming this, Ming Qi boldly extended his consciousness toward the inner core of the Divine Diagram.
The Divine Diagram's space was even larger than Ming Qi had imagined; the time it took for his consciousness to extend was immense.
After what seemed like an eternity, the wisp of consciousness that had reached into the Divine Diagram finally sensed a hint of life—life indeed!
The Divine Diagram was actually alive!
Afterward, Ming Qi manipulated his consciousness and discovered that within the Divine Diagram's core, there was something unexpected!
It was a small, rectangular scroll, seemingly palm-sized.
"Hmm?"
Could there be another scroll within the Supreme Diagram?
At this point, Ming Qi confirmed that the source of this life force was precisely this palm-sized scroll.
As Ming Qi placed his spiritual sense close to the miniature scroll, he could clearly sense the vibrant energy emanating from it. He was also surprised to see images constantly swirling across it. While somewhat blurry, he could sense a distinct aura emanating from each shift.
"How marvelous!"
Ming Qi marveled. If this mysterious little scroll was the true soul of the Supreme Diagram, then all the signs before him indicated that the Divine Diagram was on the verge of awakening.
"It seems we're just missing that final spark of opportunity."
After a closer look, Ming Qi came to a conclusion. Any soul awakening requires a vast amount of energy as a foundation. The Supreme Diagram's soul was on the verge of awakening, but hadn't truly awakened. Perhaps it was lacking the pure energy to sustain it!
Thinking of this, Ming Qi waved his hands and tossed handfuls of Wang Jing directly into the Supreme Diagram.
Puff, puff, puff! Like an ice cube dropped into a furnace, the moment the Wang Jing mixed with immense energy was dropped into the Supreme Diagram, it instantly transformed into pure energy juice, dispersing throughout the vast expanse of the world.
Ming Qi, within it, could clearly sense the energy fused within the Supreme Diagram rapidly converging towards its center, ultimately merging into the mysterious small scroll.
The small scroll then underwent a dramatic transformation.
"As expected!"
While the expensive Wang Jing feeding was a luxury, Ming Qi knew this might be his only chance to leave this dimension, so he naturally disregarded it.
The others around him were also surprised to see Ming Qi's strange behavior.
Mo Changli and Wei Silong knew Ming Qi possessed such a mysterious treasure, but Su Yuan, Xiao Qi, and the Di Kui Demon Fox had never seen one before and were curiously watching Ming Qi's actions.
Seeing Ming Qi continuously dumping handfuls of Wang Jing into the scroll, Wei Silong pondered for a moment before pulling out all his Wang Jing Yuanjing and dumping piles of them directly into the Supreme Diagram.
Wang Jing is the purest form of energy. Vast amounts of energy were absorbed frantically, causing the small scroll to change even faster!
In less than an hour, Ming Qi was pleasantly surprised to discover that the small scroll had solidified into the form of a small child's face!
Then, the small scroll began to spin rapidly, and the faint sound of the child's babbling could be heard through it. It was truly miraculous.
After more than ten minutes, the child's babbling had become a pure chuckle, punctuated by childish laughter.
Half an hour later, the first voice emanated from the Supreme Diagram.
"What is this place? Who are you?"
...
The child's growth rate was truly astonishing. An hour ago, it was just a drawing, and now it could speak clearly.
As Ming Qi spoke, before he could even retract his spiritual sense, he saw a bright flash of light from the Supreme Diagram, and a chubby child, about five or six years old, flew out.
"Hmm? Primal aura. I hate primal auras, but... well, I remember now. This is fine. I know who you are."
The child muttered a few rambling words to himself, then floated in front of Ming Qi. Glancing at him for a moment, he said, "Call me Wuxiang from now on." Then, muttering to himself, "Strange, how did I end up here..."
Ming Qi knew he had a soul connection with the Supreme Diagram. Now that the Supreme Diagram had awakened, this Wuxiang child would be the same as the Diagram's soul, allowing him to better study the Diagram's secrets.
"Okay, from now on, I'll call you Wuxiang Boy."
