In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

Although the demonic seed has great drawbacks, the women do not consider it a drawback.

It's important to know that after fusing with the demonic seed, there's also the benefit of mutual understanding and rapid power enhancement; it's practically a cheat code for cultivation.

"no!"

Not to mention that demon seeds are not easy to cultivate, the domineering nature of demon seeds is not simply a matter of 'mutual understanding', but rather a modification of will.

To put it bluntly, his puppetry skills are far too overpowered!

Chapter 574 Re-entering the World of Inner Demons: Demon Seed Fusion

"father!"

Sea base!

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Zhang Yuan, who had lost at least a hundred pounds. Not only was his figure out of shape, but his appearance was also somewhat withered.

The domineering nature of the Wedding Dress Divine Skill is like being slowly tortured by a thousand blades during cultivation; it is difficult to endure unless one has great willpower.

Although Zhang Yuan could endure the hardships, he was clearly not the physically imposing type. Therefore, after cultivating, his enormous physique was essentially paralyzed.

It wasn't that Zhang Yuan couldn't move, but the torment after cultivation was like walking through the eighteenth level of hell each time.

If it weren't for the strong tonics he'd taken to replenish his body, Zhang Yuan would have lost far more than 100 pounds in the past two years.

In addition, Zhang Yuan met the requirements for dispersing his internal energy at the beginning of this year, but he has been holding on until now.

With the Pure Yang Limitless Skill and the Nine Cauldrons Divine Skill as his foundation, Zhang Yuan's cultivation of the Wedding Dress Divine Skill was like a fish in water, progressing rapidly. Moreover, his body had already accumulated a large amount of medicinal power and fat, which was gradually released during the grueling process.

His internal energy, which was originally at an unparalleled level, reached 60% in less than a year.

Another year has passed, and it's almost 90% done.

"Shan'er, you've come!"

Zhang Yuan's face was somewhat ferocious, a consequence and side effect of the torment he suffered from the Wedding Dress Divine Skill.

The same applies to Iron Battle and Sexual Sound; after the power dissipates, they will recover. This is also the reason why the Wedding Dress Divine Skill can reshape the body and bones.

"How is Father feeling? Should we...?"

"No need, just endure for another three months until Sheng'er has mastered the Longevity Technique."

By then, my "Wedding Dress Divine Skill" will have reached ninety percent mastery, which will not only greatly benefit Sheng'er, but will also allow me to break through to the Grandmaster realm in one fell swoop.

"All right!"

Zhang Xiaoshan also knew Zhang Yuan's condition at this moment; having endured until now, it was naturally impossible for him to escape unscathed.

"By the way, how are Rong'er and the Master's health?"

"Of course it's fine. With Ninth Sister and Sister Feng taking care of us, you still don't feel at ease."

"That's good. The Zhang family bloodline is thin, so these two grandsons absolutely cannot make any mistakes this time."

Calculating the time, three months later, his two grandsons will both be a month old.

However, Zhang Yuan had no choice. This year, both of his daughters-in-law were pregnant, but he was unable to move around freely and they lived in different places. Therefore, Zhang Xiaoshan could only visit Zhang Yuan in advance.

"By the way, you should take Sheng'er back with you later too."

"Father, what are you saying? I'll leave it at that. Sheng'er must stay by your side. Otherwise, how could I leave you here alone?"

Besides, Peach Blossom Island will be bustling with people during this time, and if Sheng'er comes, one of us will have to protect him.

"That's fine!"

Hearing Zhang Xiaoshan's refusal, Zhang Yuan nodded.

At this time, it was no secret that Zhang Xiaoshan was on Peach Blossom Island, and his acquaintances included martial arts heroes and high-ranking officials.

Although the chances of Zhang Sheng getting into trouble on the open sea are extremely small, it's always wise to be cautious.

In addition to visiting Zhang Yuan, Zhang Xiaoshan also inspected the situation inside the base.

As the Zhang family's shipments increased, the security situation here became increasingly strict.

With frequent shipments and the infiltration of the network, there is always the possibility of being exposed here. Therefore, both security and maritime navigation are extremely strict. At the very least, it is better to be careful than to make a big mistake.

Moreover, there are three masters practicing the Wedding Dress Divine Skill within the base—

Zhang Yuan, Jue Se, Xiao Feng!

With the arrival of chaos, the Xiao family's hard-won stable life was disrupted by the flames of war, forcing them to seek help from the Zhang family.

Or perhaps they're preparing for a stable career at the Zhangjia Chamber of Commerce.

Moreover, after the Xiao family father and son made their move last time, Zhang Xiaoshan suggested that Xiao Feng cultivate the Wedding Dress Divine Skill.

Given Xiao Feng's protagonist destiny, his physique, perseverance, and talent are all top-notch. After cultivating for a few years, dispersing his cultivation, and starting over, becoming a grandmaster would not be a problem.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaoshan did not refuse the offer of the Xiao family father and son to join him.

Instead, Xiao Yuanshan was assigned to guard this secluded place.

Yizhou Island!

On Yizhou Island, there is a mirage project involving the Zhang family in cooperation with the Empire.

Moreover, on the north side of the island, a natural harbor dock and a city that can accommodate at least 100,000 people were built, and 10,000 imperial troops, as well as experts from the Zhang family, the Yin-Yang family, and the Gongshu family were stationed there!

Xiao Yuanshan, representing the Zhang family, was stationed on Yizhou Island, and his military strength was more than sufficient.

Even after Xiao Feng mastered the Wedding Dress Divine Skill, he still moved freely.

Besides spending his time at the sea base, he would occasionally travel back to Yizhou Island on cargo ships to visit his wife and children.

It should be noted that at this time, Xiao Feng's internal strength had reached an unparalleled level. In another two or three years, he would become a Grandmaster after dispersing his internal energy and starting over.

At that time, the Zhang family will arrange for Xiao Feng to be stationed on Yizhou Island.

The Xiao father and son had no objection to this.

Yizhou Island is the largest island in the East China Sea, with a vast area and a suitable climate. Moreover, in recent years, the various fruits and vegetables planted by the Zhang family here are like a paradise.

A secluded paradise far from the flames of war—isn't that the life they longed for?

Moreover, the Zhang family will not lack them in resources.

Yizhou Island also has various resources, including iron ore and gold ore.

Coupled with the high wages at the shipyard, the local people lived a prosperous life, which gave the Xiao family the urge to settle down here.

···

“Piaoxu, after I go into seclusion, no outsiders are allowed to come to the island!”

The fusion of demonic seeds is far more dangerous than the Nine Yin Manual; the process is extremely perilous. A slight misstep can result in severe soul damage or even complete annihilation!

On the third day after the Lunar New Year, Zhang Xiaoshan and Zhao Min went into seclusion.

Before going into seclusion, he described the dangers of fusing with demonic seeds.

After all, this is not a Taoist esoteric skill, but a demonic martial art that takes an unorthodox approach.

Moreover, the complete fusion with the demonic seed meant that Zhao Min's consciousness was completely integrated into the pure yang demonic seed, which felt similar to possession.

Because Zhao Min's consciousness could never seize control of the demon seed.

Zhang Xiaoshan's primordial spirit was domineering, pure, and powerful, far surpassing Zhao Min's spiritual strength.

However, on the surface, she is still Zhao Min.

What appears to be a demonic seed controlled by Zhao Min is actually a seed of Zhang Xiaoshan's latent primordial spirit.

Once awakened, the demon seed will instantly replace Zhao Min.

This mysterious and profound matter involves the spiritual realm, which is where the domineering nature of the demonic seed lies.

Therefore, the most terrifying aspect of cultivating the Dao Heart Demon Seed Great Method is not falling into demonic possession, but rather the instability of the demonic seed.

Either when cultivating a demon, the consciousness of the medium and the furnace resists, leading to mental disorder;

Either the conflict of consciousness that occurred when absorbing the demon seed after it was retrieved.

Basically, they either die or perish, or are on their way to die or perish. There have been many evil emperors throughout history, but very few masters have been able to cultivate the Dao Heart Demon Seed.

How did Emperor Wu cultivate the Dao Heart Demon Seed? Zhang Xiaoshan didn't know.

·········Requesting flowers·· 0

Princess Taiping benefited from the blessings and legacy of the Queen Mother of the West, while Zhao Min was a perfect demon seed planted by Zhang Xiaoshan himself.

During Zhao Min's fusion with the demonic seed, she remained in a state of mental clarity, at which point the demonic seed was released instantly. In that instant, the demonic seed completely merged with Zhao Min's consciousness.

The original method of planting a demon was to plant a golden lotus in fire, which was extremely dangerous.

At this point, the two are completely integrated, which is the process of evolving from the mutual support of water and fire to the return of yin and yang to the two polarities.

Under normal circumstances, it would be extremely dangerous.

But in the most mysterious of all, Zhang Xiaoshan, with the help of the Dragon Ball, completely fused the 'power of water and fire'.

Fire represents Zhang Xiaoshan's pure Yang demonic seed, while water represents Zhao Min's abundant Yin true essence.

In an instant, it was another cycle of dreams returning to the past.

During the forced fusion, the power of the Dragon Balls once again brought Zhang Xiaoshan to the world of inner demons.

This is Zhang Xiaoshan's second time entering the world of inner demons.

Zhao Min's inner demon is the endless grasslands of the north, while Zhang Xiaoshan and Zhao Min have become an ordinary couple.

However, unlike last time, Zhang Xiaoshan was unable to control his entry and exit from the inner demon world.

But this time is different. Leaving aside Zhang Xiaoshan's pure and refined primordial spirit, just this inner demon world alone, within the demonic seed...

Therefore, Zhang Xiaoshan has absolute control over this world of inner demons.

However, Zhang Xiaoshan did not want to miss such an opportunity. Instead, he decided to live a life of herding sheep and horses on the grasslands, as he wished.

From sweet and romantic infatuation to deep understanding and unwavering love until death...

Through the Inner Demon World, Zhang Xiaoshan not only gained a perfect understanding of Zhao Min's life, but also learned more about the northern grasslands.

It felt as if he had truly lived on the grasslands for seven years.

The advantage of this inner demon world is that it's just like the real world.

"Son!"

Seven days later, as Zhao Min awoke from her slumber, her beautiful eyes were filled with admiration and longing as she looked at Zhang Xiaoshan.

It was like a very long, yet incredibly real dream.

In her dream, she and Zhang Xiaoshan rode horses across the grasslands, living happily ever after—the kind of love she longed for.

Unfortunately, reality suddenly returned.

Congratulations, Min'er!

Not only did you successfully fuse with the demonic seed, but you also underwent a mutation!

With the existence of the inner demon world, Zhao Min's fusion with the demon seed naturally reached the level of 'perfect fusion'.

Not only did she directly enter an extremely high realm, but during the fusion process, she successfully achieved a state of mutual balance between Zhao Min and the main consciousness of the demon seed.

Like the two polarities of Yin and Yang, they not only formed a close connection with each other, but also achieved a symbiotic relationship.

"Mutation?"

"You can't perceive the mystery here right now."

All you need to know is that you have perfectly fused with the demonic seed, reaching a transcendent state, and without any side effects!

"Really?"

Zhao Min looked at Zhang Xiaoshan in disbelief, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise.

"Yes, that's the function of the Dragon Balls."

"The seven years we spent in the inner demon world were actually the time within the demonic seed for our consciousness to mature and reach a state of perfect compatibility!"

"Seven years in the world of inner demons? Was everything just now not a dream?"

"It's a dream, and it's also reincarnation!" (Power)
